It took a while before Derek decided that it was time he called the strange line that reached out to him.He was skeptical even as the phone rang in his ear and the first thing he heard when it was picked from the other end was the voice of a woman."Hello," the voice called out to him.In a calm voice, Derek responded, "It's you, isn't it? The one who's been sending me all those texts?""Yes," said the voice."In your last text, you called 'him' your husband. Who exactly is your husband?""Your wife works at Jackson and Sons Consortium, doesn't she?"That was a question to his question but he answered nevertheless: "She does.""And her senior manager is Richard Langston, right?""Correct.""Well, I'm Edna Langston, Richard Langston's wife. And like I told you in the text, I know about your wife's dirty business with my husband."That information as a whole made Derek believe that he was getting somewhere with the whole clarification about the caller's identity.Even with all that, he

"From the look of things, my husband started by spoiling your wife with expensive gift items.He spent a lot on her so much that he even started neglecting the family business.Yes, aside from being a senior manager at Jackson and Sons Consortium, Richard also handles a business with me. It's a business he inherited from his parents.But it has been all my doing ever since he started his infidelity with your wife."The woman said all of that to Derek in a manner that for a while, he forgot about also being in the middle of the whole thing."You want to know why no one has heard about my husband's escapades? It's because I've been doing a good job in pretending that everything's fine for such a long time that I'm already tired of pretending.""What do you suggest we do?" Derek decided to ask, making the woman reveal an expression leaning toward hope.She sits still for a while before speaking, "Unlike you, I'm already certain about their relationship together. But Richard doesn't know

Baby?Derek was sure he heard that right. His wife just called someone 'baby' over the phone. Or could it be that there was someone in there with her?The only problem was that he couldn't hear the voice of anyone else. But there was only one way to find out.Instantly, he pushed the door open and right in the room backing him was Catherine sitted on the bed with a phone to her ear.He looked around to see that she was alone in there and it was indeed a phone conversation he heard some seconds ago.In a panic mode, Catherine seemed to take the phone off her and then stands up to face him.He could read through her expression to tell that she was uneasy. Guess she didn't expect him in the room so suddenly.She quickly walked over to him, pulling him into a light hug."Welcome back, sweetheart," she said as she planted a kiss on his lips.Derek didn't feel any bit of tension like he normally does whenever she kissed him in the past. Instead he wanted to push her far away from himself bu

The drive to the office was faster than usual for Derek. This was because he was far too desperate to get there in time.He couldn't wait to see the face of the man who put down that inscription on his office wall. The man who brought about a few conceptions regarding his suspicions.He had a lot of questions to ask him and he was sure the man would know something about what was going on in his marriage.The moment he was on company ground, he headed straight toward the security office as that was where he was told to check.His assistant was standing by the doorway into the security office when he got there."Is he still in?" he asked his assistant who nodded in affirmation."I instructed them like you told me to," his assistant said in return. With that, they both went into the office.Inside the office were three of the security men holding down a man who seemed to be in a frenzy.It was an unusual sight for him as he wondered what could be going on. He wasn't told beforehand that

Derek was this close to getting out of his hiding place but he withheld himself. The rage beaming in him was enough to get him to make a bad decision and he knew it.He kept holding the rage back in so much by the time he was better to check the man, he didn't find him there anymore.He was certain that the rage of not confronting the man would eat him up for a long time but he wasn't going to get overwhelmed by it.Instead he went back to his office to see if he could at least get one or two done for the day.He managed to survive the rage throughout the day and even until the next day where he had to present his idea behind the project they were pursuing."This marketing deal, after serious analysis with my team, has been discovered to be a potential deal breaker for the company if we're going to fulfill the goal of becoming one of the biggest on the global market.We could reach potential new clients from across other new continents as well as securing a position as a leading compa

"Mr. McKay?"Derek was this close to stepping out of the conference room when he heard his name.He turned around to see that it was the general manager and beside him was the supervisor."Good day to you, sirs," Derek managed to say, acknowledging both of them. However he failed to hide his reluctance to leave."I'm impressed with your presentation about the new project and I'm here to tell you that you can always count on the management team to help," the manager told him."I'll really appreciate that, sir. Thank you," Derek said, forcing a smile.He made a move to leave but then www stopped again by the manager, putting him to a halt."The supervisor and I are here to know what you intend to do to combat our biggest rivals, Gaston Corps. What are your plans, Mr. McKay?"It was like an instant burden on Derek's shoulders. He really wasn't prepared to hang around the company knowing fully well that there was a matter of urgency that he had to tend to.He looked from the manager to th

"Hello," Derek said into the phone after picking up the call."This is Marcus's cousin," the caller informed him."I know," A brief pause and then he asked, "What's up? Are they still there?""That's why I called. They just left now."Derek instantly found himself at a loss. "They left?""Yes. Some minutes ago," the caller said. "Heard you're on the way so I decided to call to inform you not to bother about that again."Derek found himself in a dilemma. However in order to continue the conversation with the caller, he decided to park his car by the roadside.A bit of frustration was embedded into him but he tried not to let that frustration overwhelm him. "Are you sure it was then that came into the hotel earlier?" he had to ask."I'm sure about that. They fit the description of those that came the last time.""How long were they at the hotel this time around?""About an hour? They tend to use short time whenever they come around," the caller explained.Derek was utterly disappointed

The pictures were deleted by Catherine almost as soon as Derek received them. But he already had time to know what the content was.He didn't and couldn't understand why his wife would send him such pictures in the middle of the day.Wasn't she supposed to be at work? Didn't he just get a report that she left the hotel that she supposedly lodged at with another man?To satisfy his curiosity, he decided to put a call through to her. She picked up immediately after the first ring."Why did you send those pictures?" he asked her calmly."Did you like them?"He took the phone off his ear to confirm if it was indeed his wife that was speaking. Once he realized it was indeed her, he took it back up to his ear."I think so," he says. "But why did you send them?""Wanted to catch your attention. I guess I finally did."He was confused. She wanted to catch his attention? That didn't seem like a genuine excuse."But you deleted it after…" he pointed out.It took a few seconds before she claimed

"Welcome home—"Derek didn't let Catherine finish her statement before he violently pulled her in for a kiss and then smacked his lips against hers.It was a sudden movement, so much that Catherine would never expect her husband to do such a thing to her.At first she stood transfixed as Derek kissed her with both passion and a bit if violence at the same time, she later found herself giving into the kiss.Derek noticed that she was already into it so he took advantage of that and pushed her down to the bed where he was a bit rough with her in the process. Catherine seemed to wince from that but pulled him to her immediately.Minutes later and both their clothes were off. For the first time ever, Derek found himself thrusting into his wife with aggression.As he did it, he kept picturing his wife in bed with another man and that thought made him very furious.He was grabbing her in a way that he shouldn't and his grip was enough to make her hurt but she didn't seem to care.When he re

Derek wasn't sure how to feel about how it was all going. At least he was getting somewhere with the whole thing.He hadn't called Marcus in a while so he reached out to him via a call. They both agreed later in the day but first Derek had to have lunch with Gina."I'm glad you stuck to your words," Gina first said immediately they found themselves in the waffle house close by to the company.Derek smiled as they both settled down and got their orders.For a while they ate in silence. Eventually, Derek decided to ask something regarding the project because that was the discussion that he had been waiting to have since finding out his new position on the project."Why do you think Mr. Uriel is bent on getting you to be in contact with him?" he asks right after taking a sip of his bottle of water."I'm not sure," she said. "He just seems so interested in me.""Can I be blunt with you?"Gina nods in affirmation."Mr. Uriel doesn't want to talk business with you. He only wants to have som
