My Masked Wife Chapter 92
Derek felt defeated. And he sure was letting that defeat get to him as he drove back home about an hour after meeting with the management.The only thing on his mind now was to find a way to get into his apartment and then sleep off everything that happened that day. He didn't care about missing tomorrow's work. He just wanted to get his mind off everything.It was draining and tiring for him that his work was looking futile. The management didn't want to listen to him even with the evidence he presented to them.Perhaps they thought he was doing it for his own good when he was just trying to protect the interest of the company."They just don't understand," he said to himself as the thought flowed through his head. What was too hard for them to see, he wondered.This was something they could easily delve into themselves to see that the Jackson and Sons was bad business. It wasn't going to help them like they thought it would.An incoming call from Gina was enough to distract him from

It didn't look like a good thing he was doing. The idea of stalking his wife wasn't a quest he saw himself doing. But he was curious and desperate at the same time.He wanted to see for himself what it was that was keeping her out there. He wanted to know just why she never had her mind in their marriage. That one thing that kept her away from actually being his wife.It was too late for her to be heading out, he knew. The timing and every other thing was just not right. And he wanted to see for himself what it was that she was looking for.Although he could still see her far from the distance he was, he decided to put a call through to her. She picked up after the second ring."Where are you? I'm almost home now," he told her immediately."Uhm, I'm not home. But I will be soon," she said."Are you still at work? Perhaps you would like me to come pick you up.""Don't worry. I'm with my car.""Alright then."He hung up the call right after that. At least she did not lie about being at

"That's…" he started to say but was too stunned to complete his words."What?""That's Eugene Leviathan. That district manager I told you about. He's the one on a date with my wife!"His hand balled into a fist, rage consuming him. He wasn't just mad at this point about events not going right with him. He was mad how people kept being the reason for his messy situations."Derek, calm down," Gina said from across the table. She could see how he was boiling and knew that he needed to relax."Why should I be calm when my wife is there on a date with the same man instigating something that I've been trying so hard to fight against for the past few days?""I know you can't handle your emotions right now but don't go and make a mistake. We're in a public location and it could lead to a series of events that you won't be able to control.""Maybe if I did care about what would happen next, I wouldn't be reacting this way," And he was up on his feet immediately after he said that.He didn't th

"How did it go?" Gina asked that question immediately she saw Derek stepping out of the restaurant. All along, she had been beside his car waiting for him."Not good," he told her. "Although they kept denying that they were there on a date.""What was their claim then?""Something like a business discussion. My wife works at the Jackson and Sons so she's about to be promoted. And what comes with that package is the overseeing of the deal they just agreed on with our company."Gina didn't look pleased. "That sounds as awful as knowing your wife is on a date with another man. She's literally going to be the head of something you are completely against," she said icily with an edge to her tone."Unfortunately that's what it's going to look like. I don't even know what to say or how to feel at this point," Derek lamented."Didn't you tell her to back out of it?""How am I supposed to convince her to back out of an opportunity as big as this? It's the first ever for her and she made it cle

"No, it's not about you, Kathy," Derek said, the stress he was feeling getting evident in his tone. "I don't know how to explain it so you'll believe me but I know your consortium hasn't been all righteous over the years.There is evidence that points toward that and I'm only trying to make sure Cora Limited doesn't fall victim to the scandal that has been happening with your company.""And where's your evidence?" Catherine wanted to know."It's with the management. I left it with them.""Or you're just lying about the evidence…""I'm not. You heard Eugene Leviathan talk about it, didn't you? He saw it too and knows that I have something that can be used against the Jackson and Sons," he said, trying his best to convince her that he wasn't lying about anything.All what he was saying wasn't enough to make Catherine convinced at all. Her expression kept showing that he was not being outright with her and there was nothing he could do just to change her mind."You don't need this, Derek

Thay question Derek threw at Catherine wss what he knew he could use to have an upper say at that pointHe was already short of ideas and was also looking for a way to redeem himself. That was his best call and he was going to make good use of it."There as his plaything? Are you even listening to yourself, Derek? Why would I be the plaything to someone like Richard Langston who doesn't know how it is to take care of a woman?" Catherine fired back at him."And how do you know he doesn't know how to take care of a woman?" Derek narrowed his eyes as he asked her that. His expression harbored confusion and he wanted to exude that as much as possible."Because Richard Langston was never faithful in his marriage. I'm not surprised his wife divorced him…" Catherine said and then looked like she recalled something which she then let out. "And how do you know about his divorce? Are you his confidant or something?""Don't divert the discussion here, Catherine. You still haven't answered my que

Calling a meeting with the heads of each department alongside the management wasn't the way to start the day. However, that was what Derek was facing.The manager had requested all of their presence in the conference room, stating they needed to be there to rub minds on the second phase of their new project which was taking a major change.The big problem was that both Eugene Leviathan and Catherine were present in the meeting with them. And to make things worse, he was sitting opposite her.He noticed how she kept looking away from him just like she did when she first arrived at the company with Eugene. And she has kept up with that act."I am Eugene Leviathan and I serve as a district manager in the Jackson and Sons Consortium," Eugene introduced himself as he stood up from his seat. "Beside me is Catherine McKay, the present head of logistics in the headquarters and she will be serving as the right-hand man in this deal, reporting directly to the HQ."A few heads turned toward Dere

"Can you rephrase your question? I don't think I understand what you mean," Eugene Leviathan said to the man who asked him the last question."Why does your company want a collaboration with ours at this point?"Eugene had to stand up again to address the entire team. He didn't look too pleased though but he remained composed."The Jackson and Sons was just referred to as one of the biggest companies in the global market and that's a fact that's well known.We didn't just attain that position without working toward it. We got it by trying so hard and by trying so hard, we have everything to show for it.You ask why now? If not now, then when?"His response to the question only left more questions lingering in the mind of others. That was his goal… to not be straightforward.This was because he realized how less being straightforward has helped him in the meeting.From where Derek sat, he couldn't help but commend the man. As much as he was beginning to hate his guts, he couldn't deny
