She took a seat at the table for two so that she and Mel were the only ones who could sit, but she was surprised to see Caleb sitting in front of her. She immediately turned her head to look for Mel and saw her happily huddled at the table with the other crews who were also with them. She was about to get up to go to Mel's place when Caleb suddenly stopped her.

"What are you doing?"

"Stay here."

"What do you want from me, Caleb?"

"I just want to eat together with my wife."

She raised her eyebrow at him.

Why does this man keep calling her his wife? Did he hit his head and forget that he slapped a divorce paper on her face three years ago?

"Well, as far as I remember... I am no longer your wife."

"And as far as I know, you're still my wife."

"Caleb, listen." she took a deep breath to calm herself. "I'm not joking, I don't want any more trouble, so please leave me alone."

She doesn't know if he was happy playing with her feelings and was enjoying seeing her suffer.

"No." she suddenly felt annoyed when she heard his answer. "I didn't file the divorce paper, I burned it so you're still my wife."

-----

Neli couldn't sleep that night because of what she found out, but why didn't Caleb file their divorce paper, what is his reason? Didn't he choose Hazel over her that's why he asked her to get a divorce back then? What happened to them after she left the country, did he realize what kind of woman Hazel was?

"Ahhhh!"

She got annoyed because she did not know the answer to all of her questions and Caleb didn't even bother to answer her questions earlier while they were eating. He just keeps smiling like he's teasing her.

"What happened to you?!"

Mel asked her in surprise when she saw her the next morning, her eyes were puffy and had slight eyebags from lack of sleep.

"Ugh!"

"You know that you have a photoshoot today, right?"

She covered her ears because she didn't want to hear Mel's rant, Caleb should be the one to blame for why she couldn't sleep last night. She has a lot of questions that he needs to answer, she wanted to talk to Caleb but she didn't know why there was something that seemed to be stopping her from doing so.

When they reached her dressing room, even her make-up artist was surprised to see her face. She put a lot of effort today on her eye make-up to cover her puffy eyes and eyebags, she was thankful that she still managed to do her make-up as natural as yesterday.

They immediately started the photoshoot, Caleb was no longer part of it but she was surprised to see him still on the beach. He also went into the sea and stood beside the photographer as if he was ready to save her if something happened, she smiled thinking that he was perhaps worried about her that she might be afraid of the sea.

"Nice! Another pose! Okay, try the one where you get out of the water." the photographer said.

Neli took a deep breath then looked at Caleb as if she was taking courage from him, she saw that there was a trace of concern on his face while nodding to her as if he was saying that he was ready to rescue her no matter what.

She counted up to three before she slowly submerged herself under the water, she didn't feel scared anymore as she thought that Caleb would do anything to save her.

She went up slowly from the water then stroked her long and wet black hair, she felt the sea water dripping all over her body.

I... I did it!

She slowly opened her eyes and looked for Caleb's eyes, her cheeks becoming hot when she saw his eyes burning with desire. But only a few seconds passed when his forehead suddenly wrinkled as if he was pissed off.

"Perfect!" the photographer said.

She was about to approach them when he suddenly turned his back on her and started walking to the shore, she was a bit disappointed but she still forced herself to smile when the photographer came to her.

She was busy talking to the photographer when she suddenly felt something warm and soft touched her arms, she turned and saw Caleb behind her, he put pastel pink satin robe on her to cover her body.

"You might catch a cold." he said to her.

She smiled at him and fixed what he gave to her, her cheeks and ears suddenly became hot when she found out that her bikini was visible because the off white mini dress she was wearing was sticking to her body. She realized that the reason why Caleb left earlier was to get clothes to cover her body.

After they finished her photoshoot they immediately returned to the hotel and went back to the city the next day morning. Neli never had a chance to talk to Caleb either because after he received a call he told her that he had an emergency so he was going to leave first.
