Kulsum's POV-
"What did I tell you melekim? I would make you shut up. Take this as a lesson for next time, I don't loose. Think twice before challenging me, because next time.....your punishment won't be so lenient." He breathed.
And with that he climbed out of the pool, leaving me behind.
His audacity!!!
I was left there numb and soaked. I'm so gonna get back at him.
How could he do this!?
But what happened next, shook me to the core.
He removed his drenched Arabic jubba as his back was facing me, exposing his sexy back.
My eyes widened as I gulped. I swear he has muscles and a body like a demi God!
His broad shoulders, perfectly sculpted biceps, and his formidable sexy back.
He then shook his wet long hairs to drain water.
I swear I didn't realised that my jaw was dropped.
He then grabbed a bath robe from the nearby rack and covered his hot physique.
He was going to step inside the bedroom, when he stopped.
He tilted his head to the side.
"You can stop staring now, the fun part is over." He smirked devilishly.
What the fudge! H- how long does he knew I was staring at him?
Ya Allah I'm so shameless!
"Ahem...I'm not staring at you okay! I- I was admiring the money plant above the railing." I cleared my throat.
But he just snickered and went inside. What an absolute piece of jerk!
I managed to climb out of the pool and put on a robe and went inside.
Great! Now I have to shower again!
.

I was in my office taking care of the clients. Just a few weeks has passed and I can't believe it's going so well.
I feel peaceful while I try to comfort people and be there for them.
My last client got up and left and I was exhausted.
I rested my head on the desk after a long and tiring day.
Just then I heard a familiar heels clicking sound and I immediately looked up.
And there stood Esra leaning against the door frame, her lips curved into a sneaky smirk.
"What are you doing here?" I glared at her.
"Oh, I'm just here to witness how you're wasting Abdul Razzaq's money by establishing this stupid clinic." She rolled her eyes.
My blood boiled with rage. What the heck is her problem?! The more I try to be away from her.....the more she irritates me.
"You got no business here Esra, and besides I did not spend Abdul Razzaq's money on this. So why don't you shut up and leave!" I flared my nostrils.
She suddenly started laughing. "Oh my God! You have no idea about Abdul Razzaq don't you? Oh God you're so shameless and ignorant." She made a disgusted look.
"What the hell do you mean huh?" I stepped closer to her.
"Nothing darling....at first I thought you don't care about him....but now I know, you don't even know him." She folded her arms.
"I don't wanna deal with you right now! Get out!" I gestured her to leave.
She left clicking her heels as if she was in a fashion show.
But her words rang in my ears....what did she meant when she said I didn't know anything about Abdul Razzaq?
Just then, Emir entered with a confused expression.
"Kulsum.....who was that?" He raised his eyebrows.
"That was Esra." I sighed.
"The Esra...you told me about? That psycho girl?" His eyes widened.
"The one and only." I rolled my eyes.
"Damn, she's a walking nightmare, what was she doing over here?" He forrwed his eyebrows.
I told him everything what happened just now.
"Look Kulsum, if I'm being completely honest....you deserve better than Abdul Razzaq. I mean he believed her over his own wife and he tells you to stay away from me and he himself tags along with Esra." He shrugged.
I mean maybe....he is kind of a toxic person. And yes we're only in this marriage till 7 months, but he respects our marriage.
"I don't know Emir....and even if it's true....I can't do anything! I'm married to him." I sighed.
"Yes you're married to him. But that doesn't mean you can't do anything!" His eyes sparkled.
"Look Kulsum, I know he's my cousin and I shouldn't be speaking like that about him. But just so you know, he's very different from all of us. Everything and everyone is just a business deal to him. If he hadn't saw benefits of marrying you, he wouldn't have married you in the first place. Why do you think me and my family don't stay with them?" His eyes darkened.
That did make sense to be honest. Aslihan told me that they left the house suddenly. But no one knows the reason.
What if it's something against Abdul Razzaq?
But he wouldn't do anything to hurt is own family right?
But then again, he hates Emir so much.
"And trust me, I think there's something going on between them. Why else would Abdul Razzaq defend her and not you? And they're always together."
At this point, I was silent. I mean it's clear that he's not interested in me, nor that I want him to be interested in me, but would he actually do something like that?
Abdul Razzaq's POV-
I was in my penthouse office with Esra assisting me with work.
I must admit, she learned a lot about business.
With her help and contributions, I had made my sales boost about 89% this year.
"Finally all the structures are done." She stretched her arms as she smiled.
"Yes, good work today." I closed my laptop.
"I think we should go out and celebrate!" She exclaimed as she clapped her hands.
"I say we rest for the day." I said blankly.
"Oh come on Razzaq! You're no fun. No wonder your wife stays away from you." She folded her arms.
"What do you mean?" I narrowed my eyebrows.
"Oh you know, she's always at work, spends time more with your cousin Emir than you. And I doubt she talks nicely to you." She rolled her eyes.
That point was sure to be noted actually. But it still didn't made any sense.
"So what exactly are you trying to lay emphasis on?" I clenched my jaw.
"Umm, she.....you know spends half of the day with Emir....and you know how Emir is. What if they're.....you know.....secretly into each other. We even spotted them at the cafe yesterday." She took a sip of water.
That does make sense. I know Kulsum wouldn't do such thing, but what if Emir manipulates her? Besides, she won't think twice before believing him.
"Maybe you're right about Emir, but Kulsum won't do this. She's a woman with dignity and sanity." I said firmly.
I dropped Esra to her hotel and accompanied her till her room because of the things we had to carry to her room.
I kept everything in as she bid farewell to me and closed the door.
I was about to turn away and leave, when the door next to me opened and my world shattered before my eyes.
I witnessed Emir and Kulsum get out of the room as Kulsum was fixing her hijab and her Abaya. And they smiled at each other before Kulsum blushed.
I quickly hid behind a wall.
Could it be?
No no it wouldn't be! This can't be! Just then I saw Emir drop something into the nearby trash can.
My blood ran cold. Was Esra telling the truth? Did she knew about it? Is she seriously cheating on me?
