CHARLOTTE

It was Friday. As Benjamin wanted me, I had applied for Ada's job. I was stunned to receive the interview letter the very next day. Benjamin was the happiest and the proudest ever since I got the interview letter. As if, he won some kind of lottery. “Babe! I am not a child. I know how I am supposed to dress up for the interview. And it's not my first interview.” I tried to argue with Benjamin when he had literally placed my whole wardrobe on our bed.

He was looking for the perfect dress for me to wear for my interview. I was grateful to my father in law for taking Charlie away from the house that day or my son would have definitely experienced us arguing in front of him as well. He had seen the most horrifying moments in between Benjamin and I. Especially when I was giving up on my son.

After everything he had faced in his life because of our stupidity, I wanted him to live his best life. “I am just helping you to look better on your big day. What's the problem with that?” He argued back as he picked up two of my dresses in front of his eyes.

Rolling my eyes, I pushed him on the bed and crawled on top of him. Benjamin was stunned for a moment for the stunt I pulled. But soon enough, he recovered and a playful smirk appeared on his face. “Babe! Are you sure you want to do this? You're gonna be late if we start now. I think we should wait until you get back home.” The confidence in his eyes made me blush hard.

I intertwined my fingers with his and started grinding myself on his lap. He was growling in pleasure as I teased him to his limits. “Baby, you shouldn't play with fire when you can't handle it. Now let me get ready or there will be no kitty for you for the rest of the day.” I scolded him as soon as I had control over him.

The way he looked at me with utter surprise was just priceless. Giggling, I crawled off of him and then pushed him off of the bed. Benjamin was staring at me with a smirk on his face. And I was trying to stay focused on the task.

“You sure know ways to tame me.” He whispered softly, staring at his candy. I giggled when I looked at his puppy eyes and a baby pout in his face. Once I had chosen the dress for myself, I sat on his lap and pecked his lips. It blossomed a bigger smile on his face in no time.

“Now, be a good boy for me. I would like you to drive me to the location. I am too nervous to go alone.” I spoke while burying my face in the crock of his neck, trying to seek a kind of comfort in his arms I knew his warmth would provide for me.

“Anything for you, Tinkerbell. Go and get ready. I'll be waiting for you in my car.” He whispered softly, pulling me even closer to his chest as he knew how much I needed him. I was nervous, but I was no longer afraid of anything as I was with him. It was the same all those years ago as well.

Somewhere along the way, he became the reason for my comfort. Smiling at him, I nodded my head and pecked his lips. “Alright!” I whispered as I got up and went into the bathroom to get ready.

Once I was done, I walked outside, only to find my husband completely dressed up in an elegant tuxedo, waiting for me in his car. He drove me to the DA's office. “Now, be my brave girl and ace it up.” Giggling, I pecked his lips again.

“I'll be expecting you to be here when I get back.” I spoke as I got out of the car. He smiled at me and nodded his head.

“Consider it done, Tinkerbell. Now go and get that job.” He replied, trying to boost me all up for the interview. I had a huge smile on my face as I entered the building. Soon after, my name was called. I walked inside the office. I took a deep breath to calm myself down as I placed my file in front of the man who was supposed to be my interviewer.

“Please, take a seat, Mrs Leblanc.” He offered and I sat down with a low thank you that slipped my lips.

“I am surprised! I was expecting a VIP treatment for you, I expected you not to show up. Your husband is one of the biggest funders for the DA’s office. And he raises funds for the victims who can't pay much. Yet, you arrived here right on time. You waited in line with the other candidates, instead of waiting in the DA's office. I am lost here.” The interviewer asked, placing my file down, he interlaced his fingers on my file.

He was curiously staring at me, as if trying to read me. “If I wanted my husband's influence in my professional life, I would have joined his company as his legal adviser, which could have gotten me ten times more money in six months then whatever I will be earning here yearly, at the DA's office. I have my own professional life that I had built from the scratch and own the struggles that make me Charlotte Morin.” I didn't hesitate when I answered all of his questions.

The moment I told him my actual name, his eyes widened with surprise. “You are telling me, you are Charlotte Morin.” He asked me in a surprised tone.

“If you had read my file just now, you would have seen my name on top. I married Mr Leblanc about a few months ago but I became a lawyer way before.” I replied to him again with the same confidence.

He opened the file again and read it thoroughly this time. I watched his eyebrows raise for a moment, then he closed the file and turned back to me. “So you worked at the Stewart's law firm before you applied for the job of an ADA. Can I ask why you left Stewart's law firm? You were doing quite well with them and Mr Stewart trusted you enough to send you here to deal with an exceptionally personal case.” Of course, I was expecting that question.

“Simple! I came here for the case then I got married to my husband. I couldn't work with them while living in Toronto. So I left them.” I replied calmly. There was no need for me to lie.

“I see! I must say, I was expecting you to already be hired and not wait for the interview. But I guess, not everyone in this world is running after the easy way.” He spoke in a surprised tone and I couldn't help but smile.

“Everyone is looking for the easy way. But if I wanted the easy way, I would have done an MBA from Stanford university and would have taken over my parents’ businesses, instead of getting an LLM degree.” I replied.

He chuckled and nodded his head. “I have been interviewing lawyers for ADA’s place for ten years. I can't say I have ever encountered a woman, a woman, to be so confident in front of me. And during that decade, it's going to be the very first time when I am saying this to someone.” He spoke as he stood up with my file in his hands.

I also stood up, frowning at him in confusion. “And what would that be?” I asked, trying to stay calm.

“You are hired, Mrs Charlotte Morin.” He answered and I tried not to be so overly excited.

“Thank you, Mr…? You didn't introduce yourself, by the way.” He blinked a few times before he remembered that I was right.

“My bad! I got so overly excited to humiliate an heir's wife, that I forgot about my introduction. No offense.” He replied, offering me his hand.

“None taken!” I said.

“I am Jacob Thorson. Nice to meet you, Mrs Charlotte Morin.” He finally introduced himself and that's when I grabbed his hands and shook it.

“It's Mrs Charlotte Leblanc.” I corrected him and he nodded his head.

With that, I got out of his office and went straight outside. I was expecting my husband to pick me up. But I was definitely disappointed to see Joe in the car. “Where is my husband?” I asked him as soon as we were inside the car.

“His doctor has to leave the city for a week. Since Mr Leblanc was free today, he decided to go for an early chemo session. He is at the hospital for now.” Joe replied and I sighed.

“He knows he can't bear the session without me. Yet he decided to go in without me. Take me to the hospital.” I ordered Joe, angry at my husband. Joe nodded his head and turned the car to the hospital.

I walked into the room and found his face buried in a bag. He looked exhausted. He had been puking again. “I thought I told you not to visit the hospital without me.” I scolded him as I placed my bag on the side table. An exhausted smile appeared on his face when he saw me. He opened his arms for me so quickly.

I couldn't help but giggle as I laid on the bed with him. Benjamin quickly wrapped his arms around me and buried his face in the crock of my neck. “Much better!” He whispered in my ear.

I wrapped my arms around his neck and my fingers interlaced with his soft hair. “How was the interview?” He asked excitedly after a minute.

“I got the job, actually.” I replied to him proudly.

“Really! I'm so proud of you, baby. I knew for sure you would ace it.” I giggled when I heard him.

I whimpered when he pushed his hand up into my skirt. “Ben! We are in the hospital.” I whispered, trying to fight the urges I was feeling.

“No one will intrude. Just stay quiet.” He replied, as he unbuttoned my blouse. He pulled one of my breasts out of my bra. My toes curled when he started sucking my nipple.

“Ben, please! Not here. Let's wait until we go home.” I suggested. Though, deep inside, I was thrilled about the idea of having a quieter sex in the hospital room while everyone outside would be thinking that I was there just to support my husband like a good wife.

Benjamin pulled away from me and raised one of his brows at me. “I know you enough to say that you are actually horny while thinking about having sex in this room while I am on my chemo.” My cheeks burned when he actually pulled the tamed words out of my mouth so effortlessly.

Biting my lower lip, I clawed on top of him. “Maybe, I do want to ride you.” I replied, pulled my skirt up. I took my panties off and shoved it in his pocket.

“Do you have a condom?” I asked him and fir a moment, his face went blank. Then he smiled at me and pulled a condom out of his pocket. Then I unzipped his pants. He was already hard and throbbing for me.

After rolling the condom on his length, I let his hardness slide inside me. He growled like an animal while I covered my mouth with my hand so no one would hear me moan. Once he was completely inside, I started moving up and down.

Benjamin opened his arms for me. I laid down on him. Benjamin wrapped one arm around my torso to hold me still, and with his other hand, he cupped the back of my head. Then he literally showed me heaven. He was going at a fast pace, so fast that I could feel our bodies vibrating.

I bit onto his shoulder hard when the orgasm tore through my body. He wasn't behind as well. He buried his face in the crock of my neck. With a muffled growl, he unloaded his seed in the condom.

Breathing heavily, I pulled off of him. I quickly set my clothes and retouch my makeup. I was buttoning up his shirt when the doctor came inside to check him. Biting my lower lip, I kept my eyes narrowed as I knew, doctor would know what we just did in the hospital’s private room.
