My Masked Wife Chapter 74
At that moment, the person going through a whole lot of issues wasn't just Derek anymore. Marcus was in the same category.For the first time since Derek got to Marcus's place, Marcus was without proper options. It was like he had no solution to anything whereas he was the man whom Derek always ran to whenever the issues looked to be more difficult than expected.How was he or anyone else going to explain the call Derek just received? It was a short but precise one. Precise for anyone to know that Derek had something huge to deal with.Derek looked at him, looking all confused. He looked like he was going to drop the device in his hand so he had to say something to him."What was that all about?" he asked Derek who still looked confused as hell."I have no idea," Derek admitted."You sure it's not more than kissing a girl that you shouldn't? Is there more to this that you aren't telling me? Because this call just opened a lot of other possibilities…"Derek took a seat. He was devastat

Immediately they got into his office, Derek turned around and said to the lady: "I don't know what it is you were thinking but you've put me in trouble.""What are you talking about?" the still confused Gina asked as she shut the door behind her. "I don't get you, Derek. What did I do?""Are you working with someone?""Working with who?""I don't know. Anyone that's planning to ruin my life by using you to get that done…"Gina shook her head in disappointment. "That's too much coming from you. You think I would want to ruin your life, Derek? Is that what this is about?""The only thing this is about is you coming on to me and then someone sending me a picture of you and me in such an intimate position that if my wife gets to see it, she could call off our marriage completely.""Wait, wait, hold on…" Gina said as she tried to understand the whole situation. "Are you telling me that there's a picture of two of us together?""I wasn't speaking another language."Although that came off as

"Welcome home," Catherine said as soon as Derek got in.He didn't respond at once as he first went to take a seat. What he needed was enough rest to make him feel better as his whole body was telling that he had a long day."Thank you," he said to his wife finally.When he looked at her, he noticed that she was on her laptop. She was fully immersed in it as she typed away into the system and Derek has never seen her looking more serious than this."What are you doing?" he asked her."Working," she simply said as she continued with what she was doing."Hmph," he hummed and then stood up. "I'll be in the room.""Okay."He looked at her once before deciding to head up to their bedroom.When he got in, he took off his top first before laying on the bed, the softness of the mattress giving him an instantaneous relaxing feeling.He wished he could stay like that all through because his body needed that rest. And it was really his one way of forgetting all about work and any other thing that

The sound of the door shutting was all that Derek needed to know that Richard was now in the car with him. All through he didn't even bother looking in that direction because he already saw the man coming toward there in the first place.After a long silence, Richard decided to break the ice."Why are you here? I thought our business together was done. What more do you want from me?""That's what you thought," Derek said. "I never told you that our contact is off. You only assumed that yourself.""I guess breaking off my marriage isn't enough for you, is it?""I have no hand in that. That's on you and your foolishness. Now let's get on with what I summoned you for instead of me sitting here and listening to you whine about your failed marriage.""Like yours isn't failing…"Derek turned his head toward the man, his expression revealing an ounce of rage. "What did you say?" he asked sternly.Richard Langston looked at him. He looked like he didn't care and the manner at which he decided

Except Richard Langston wanted to deny it, Derek was more than confident that the person in the picture was Catherine and not Anne.Ever since he had the discussion with Edna which allowed him to realize that there was something Richard was hiding, he has done a little digging himself.Edna sent him the picture of the anniversary date. And unlike the other pictures where there was skepticism about the person in the picture, this one had been as clear as crystal to him.His wife didn't have her usual sunglasses on and this gave him the chance to see the face of the person clearly enough to know who it is."It's Anne," Richard said eventually regarding the picture in the phone."Anne?" Derek asked."Yes… Anne. There's no way this is Catherine. I was never with her in the first place."Derek shook his head to discard the man's words. "You may want to deny it," he said, "but this one right here doesn't indicate you being with the girl you made to play dress up. I know who this is and you

"Do you know if she mentioned something about being followed? Or maybe she suspected something like that?" Derek asked the man. He was still in the middle of getting the truth about the matter."How was I supposed to know? We never had that type of interaction. The only interaction we had was a scripted one and that's all."Derek was sure of one thing now. Catherine knew all along. She knew she was being monitored in some way so she decided to give out an act that would spice things up.The problem now was that Derek wasn't able to tell what angle she was coming from for actually doing what she did.He couldn't tell if she did it to get attention on her or away from her… Or perhaps attention away from somebody else.Derek wished he could figure that part out but it wasn't something that he could. He would have to look into more proofs to actually make sense of this new information."Just so you know, you agreeing to something like that didn't do you any good. And I wonder what made yo

"How did you get that information that you sent me?" Edna first asked once she heard the beep that indicated she was connected with Derek."I made my findings," Derek simply told her."How? You want to tell me that you just did a mild research and then got this fact?" she asked."No.""What's wrong with you? Spill already.""I met with Richard."Perhaps it was the reason he was acting all reserved, Edna thought. It would make sense to her why Derek didn't want to say anything at first about who he communicated with just to get the needed info."When?""About an hour ago," Derek said."Where?""What's with all the questions, Edna? Do you want to know what I got from him or you want me to detail how I met him and all of that?"Edna sighed. "I don't even know," she said. "Just get on with it. What did Richard tell you?"Her eyes lingered about the park that was getting lesser in terms of the number of people that were around. Dusk was about to hit and that was enough to get everyone leav

"Sorry I asked to meet with you on such short notice," Derek apologized to the lady in front of him. "I could have texted you but I don't think it's safe anymore.""It's a good thing you mentioned that because I was about to ask you why you didn't just tell me what you want via the phone." That was the response he got from the lady.The lady was none other than Nadia. He had summoned her to meet with him after thinking through his options of finding a good way out of his predicament.She wasn't his first choice but she seemed like the most feasible option. And what was left now was for him to make good use of that option."So what's the issue that you so badly had to call to see me?" Nadia wanted to know as she sat uprightly to listen to what Derek had to say. All along she was sitting very relaxed because of her nonchalance of being there with him."The first thing you need to know is that I'm not trying to blackmail you this time around…""Oh good. Then I think I don't have any busi
