My wife's secrets Chapter 52
Chris would never turn down an invitation from Amelia, especially when she was leaving town in an hour. He called his assistant into his office as he packed his desk. "Do I have any important meetings today?" He asked he was in a hurry, the drive to the train station was a good twenty minutes drive. "Well, only one, boss and that's with a shareholder at noon." His assistant replied. "Cancel it," Chris said flatly and walked out of the office, leaving his PA stunned.He drove himself to the station and he found himself having a hard time locating Amelia. There were so many people at the train station, that most of the coffee and tea shops were filled to the brim. It had Chris wondering where she could be. He dialed, "Amelia, where are you?" He asked when she picked up the phone.It was noisy and really difficult for him to hear what she was saying over the boisterous surroundings of the train station. "Just…around…huh?"That was all he heard her say as her words came to him in c
My wife's secrets Chapter 53
The first thing Chris's mind drifted to was the assault on Kade. What if Briella had lost her cool and was so angry with him that she reported him to the police? That was very unlikely. What if it was Ariah who had reported? That was also very unlikely. So what was it the police wanted? You're needed at the police station, Mr. Chris. Please come to the station as soon as you can.At least they hadn't sent police men after him, that would have been worse. It wouldn't only have been bad for him but also for his company. With a beating heart, he drove slowly to the station, his unsteady mind wondering what in the world they had called him in for. He thought about calling Briella just to make sure, then brushed the idea off his mind. He walked into the police station with a straight face. He had already called his PA before arriving and said to her, "If any shit happens, don't waste time, get my fucking lawyer to come get me." "But sir, is anything the matter?" She asked timidly."Ju

Chris felt a panic of fear as he thought of what had possibly happened to her, her voice sounded restrained unlike her usually cheerful self. "What's wrong?" Chris asked, lifting himself up from his chair, immediately walking out of the office almost bumping into Melissa."Is something wrong sir?" She questioned but he was too absent minded to hear what she had asked him, he pulled out his keys making his way to the garage and got into his car making his way home. She had ended the call without saying anything further to him which was concerning, how could he possibly forgive himself if something bad happened to himself, he soon got home and ran into the house"Honey?!" He yelled hoping she was alright, there was intense silence all around the house which was about to make him go crazier. "Babe?" He called out again, going around the house but couldn't find her, he didn't know if this was a game of hers or it was a call for help but he was beginning to freak out.He searched their roo

CHAPTERThe call shook him greatly and he raced home like a mad man, momentarily forgetting that he was supposed to be mad at her for all she had done. His compassionate side took over, the tone in her voice was so thin and frail that it kept playing in his head even as he went home. Although she had cheated on him, as he knew more than once and even with more than one man, he still cared about her. Of course, he still had revenge on his mind, but this wasn't how he planned to do it. He got to the house and parked the car haphazardly then ran into the house. She wasn't in the living room or anywhere downstairs. "Aria!" He called, but there was no response. Then he ran up the stairs and threw the bedroom door open. The room was awkwardly dim for this time of the day, she had closed the curtains and only a pale blue light shone in the room. "Aria?" He called again, he made out an outline of someone on the bed, it had to be here lying there in that manner. "I…Chris… i thought yo

Several days later, Chris was in his office, he was tired and visibly worn out.There were lines of exhaustion on his forehead and he closed his eyes as he leaned back on his chair. He had gone through another night of sleeping in his office, this time it hadn’t been as comfortable as the first night. The couch was just too small and narrow, his legs too long and his body refused to adjust to the confined space. He would have slept in the worker’s room on the ground floor but that wouldn’t create a good image. He didn’t want the whole fucking company to know that he was having issues with his wife. What made his morning worse was when his secretary walked in and told him about the meeting he had scheduled for that morning. He literally had to drag himself there and fight the drowsiness that clouded his eyes. As if that wasn’t enough, it was a very long and boring meeting that seemed interminable, it took a miracle for him not to completely doze off. He threw his suit as he walked

There was definitely a mix up somewhere. How was Aria with Kade next to the pool in a fucking bikini and at the hospital at the same time? “What? What are you saying Kade? I’m not fooling around with you, I just saw Aria right now and from the looks of things, I don’t think everything is alright.” Susan said. “What do you mean by that, Susan?” Chris asked, the panic that was in Susan’s voice seethe into his own voice. “I just saw her near the abortion room, she seems very pale and worn out. Even as she’s speaking, her face looks drawn with a great deal of pain. She’s not okay, Chris, I think you have to come over here right now.” Susan replied, speaking rapidly. “Who…Who is she speaking to?” He asked slowly, still not able to make sense out of what was going on right now. “Uhm, a doctor and a nurse. I keep hearing what they’re saying in chasms, they’re almost whispering. I heard ‘something painful.’ And then the doctor said, ‘it is done already, you do not have much to worry abou

Briella stared down at her for a long uncomfortable moment and Olivia swallowed hard.She had noticed something, every time she saw her, she always dressed as though she purposely wanted to look like Aria. On a certain day when she had been trailing her husband, she had even noticed that Olivia wore exactly the same clothes as Aria that day and she had been so confused when she saw Aria in one place, then her replica, Olivia, in another. Briella could remember that day very clearly, she had been watching Kade, suspecting that indeed he was having an affair with another woman whom at that time she wasn’t sure who it was. Storming upon Aria along the way, they had exchanged pleasantries calmly. Aria had sighted her and approached her first in the coffee shop opposite the company Kade worked, whose window she had been staring out of. “Hey, Briella Bricks?” Aria asked with a warm smile on her face.They didn’t know each other too well at that time, but Briella had seen her already a c

Chris didn't have much to say to Kade, there was only one question on his mind as he sipped his cocktail, his mind constantly on Aria and if she was okay. "So, tell me something, Mr. Kade." Chris said drinking quietly for about five minutes. "It's just Kade, you don't have to add the mister." Kade said imperiously. "Too bad, yeah? I call you whatever the fuck I want." Chris snapped. "Now, does my wife know about what I did to you? Did you tell her that I know about your sexcapades?" He asked.Kade shook his head, "If she knows, then I wasn't the one who told her." He replied. "We haven't met since that day and apparently, you haven't been much of a husband to her either since that day." He remarked. Chris squinted at him and said, "Apparently, because my wedding ring was smeared with your stinking blood."He knew Kade was trying to get under his skin but he kept his cool. The word abortion kept ringing in his mind over and over again. Could it be that it was Kade's child she was
