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
My wife's secrets Chapter 60
Chris didn't know what to say initially as he just stared at her. From a first glance, he knew that something was wrong somewhere. She had this withdrawn attitude, like she was going through a depression phase of some sort. Her eyes darted around nervously, like something would just spring out of one of his cupboards and dive for her neck. Behind those darting eyes of hers, was a flicker of fear that she hid behind a smile. Her hands seemed to be trembling, her skin had taken on a sallow color, Aria wasn't herself. This wasn't the confident lady that had tried to seduce him several days ago, she was a shadow of herself. But then he couldn't ask because there were too many possibilities swirling in her head. Was she nervous because she had found out about what he did to Kade and was suddenly too scared to even talk to him? Or was it about the doctor's appointment and the abortion Susan had talked about over the phone? He didn't know, the only person he could get an answer from was

The morning dawned with a delicate shine of sunlight, promising warmth for that day. The sunlight peered through the curtains casting a soft glow on Melissa's face as she slept. Gradually sensing the heat and bright light from the sun, she blinked her eyes open, adjusting herself into a comfortable position on the bed. The space beside her was empty, Chris nowhere in sight. "Maybe he's working in his study." She muttered to herself, trying to sit upright. Chris now worked from home because of Melissa. He wanted to make sure that she never got to stress herself during the last few months of her pregnancy, and that he was always there whenever she needed him. He only went to the office if the situation needed itTwisting her neck sideways to relieve them of it's stiffness, her hand instantly went to her protruding belly, rubbing gentle circles around them as a smile played on her lips. It felt like yesterday when they were unsure of their love, but now a year had passed. Gradually

Melissa stared at her wedding gown with joy plastered on her face. She had begun preparing for her wedding and was more than excited, she had asked her friend Daphne to come help her out in choosing her wedding gowns since she could not make up her mind.Cnrid had recommended that we go to a luxury "Isn't this perfect?" She turned around to ask her friend Daphne."Sure, it suits your sling but I feel it may be too heavy for you to move around," Daphne suggested while staring at the dress. "Why not try another?"The staff beside them pointed to a series of other options to choose from but Melissa was confused and didn't know which one to take."Have you found the one you like?" Chris's voice erupted in the room and they turned to gaze at him. Melissa gazed at him illuminating her face with a smile, she walked towards him and embraced him in a warm hug."Not yet, I still haven't made up my mind on which one to choose." She pouted her lips gazing at the numerous gowns available. "Why do

Chris had taken Melissa on a vacation trip so they could enjoy their moment together and get to know each other more. He also took it as a time for her to take a break from all the stress that had happened to her."Aren't these gifts a little too much?" Melissa pouted gaznng at the mirror admiring the silver dress he had bought for her."You deserve the world honey don't worry too much about the worth of the gift I'm giving you, after all the most expensive thing you've given me is your heart and my money can't be enough to buy that," Chris said as he caressed her lips placing a kiss on it."Don't flatter me." She looked away shyly, he gently pulled her close to him and looked away and gazed at her."I mean every word I tell you…. Don't for once doubt it." He leaned on her chest and smiled. "I love you too much to play with your heart."."What do you think about going out for dinner later this evening?" He asked gazing at her curiously. "It's okay if you don't feel like it." He added.

Weeks had passed since the whole incident and Chris was finally getting better although had to walk around with a walking stick to aid his movement, on the other hand, Melissa was still admitted to the hospital and still unconscious.It had saddened him to know that she lost the child but thankfully she was still alive. Chris walked into the ward with fresh flowers to put in her room so she could have a nicely scented room."Good morning princess." He smiled at Melissa laying in the bed and the only thing he got back was the beeping machine noises that assured him she was right.He walked towards the flower vase replaced the old ones with the new ones he had just brought and walked to the chair to sit beside Melissa's bed. "Wale up soon okay?" He gently lifted her hand and placed a gentle kiss on it. Her skin had gotten paler and when he had brought it to the doctor's concern, he was told that it was because she was still unconscious and when she woke up, she would get back to herself

"What?" Melissa was stunned to see Aria and glanced at Chris."She's with Alex." He forced out the words and gazed at Melissa."Such a whore." She mumbled and pulled out a gun from her pocket aiming at Aria."You have a death wish, don't you? Stooping so low that you spread your legs for every man you see.""What the hell do you know about me huh?" Aria lashed out."I know that you're a whore, that's for certain." Melissa shrugged her shoulders, Chris had finally noticed the way Melissa dressed as an officer and tilted their head wondering if he was making things up."Why are you wearing this?" Chris asked her curiously."Long story short I'm an investigator." She gave him a quick smile before gazing at Aria who was also shocked at the discovery."So all this while you used working with him as a cover-up?" Aria smirked. "Wouldn't it be shameful if they knew how you got pregnant?""That is none of your concern!" Chris raised his voice at Aria."Don't you dare raise your voice at me!" S

"Ya'll better start talking or I'm about to pry you all open." He threatened pulling out a gun from the back of his trouser. "What the hell is she here?" He asked referring to Aria who was glaring at him furiously."You seem quite energetic for the day but I'm afraid you're interrupting a heart-warming scene," Alex smirked."Aria come here right now," Kade ordered her but she stood firmly in the ground."Who do you think you're talking to honey" Sir folded her hand on her chest and smiled, Kade was somewhat taken aback, he could sense a change in her and wondered why she had behaved like this all of a sudden. "You had better watch that mouth of yours.""Just what do you mean by that?" Kade demanded, he was furious. "Are you still going to choose that bastard over me?" He pointed to Chris who remained quiet and hung his head low."I doubt that is the situation here." She threw herself onto Alex and smiled."You better get away from her or I will blast your head off."

Several days had passed and Chris hadn't heard from his brother or had anything to eat, he was slowly losing his mind and the smell of blood enveloping the room picked him so much."It's been a while." Alex's voice erupted in the room and he the door creaked open, Chris struggled to lift his head and gazed at him."He needs treatment." He turned to Marcus who was laying weakly on the floor. "He has nothing to do with this, why does he have to suffer?" "You seem quite healthy for someone how head starved." Alex lit up a cigarette gazing at Chris coldly. "Answer me!" Chris demanded but Alex still wasn't bothered by his question."I'm slowly going to drive you to insanity to the point where you would beg me to end your life but I would not," Alec said, puffing the smoke in Chris' face and laughing. "You should see your face right now.""You psycho!""Well then, why didn't I invite a very special guest huh?" He whispered into Chris' ear.Chris couldn't help but wonder who it could be an

"How can it be?" Chris gasped. "You… died.""Well as you can see it's my spirit taking revenge on you." Alex laughed sarcasticallyChris was still in shock and hadn't recovered, he recalled that after that incident he was been blamed for the death of his step brother who couldn't be found, and was taken to his grandmother's place to live till he grew up and had never heard from his parents because they had cut him off."You faked your death?" Chris gazed at him in annoyance."How could you do such a thing to me?" Alex pouted his lips looking like a maniac."I never intended to do so, but now that I think of it I should have pushed you harder so that you would truly die." Chris stared at him waiting for some sort of explanation. "So you're telling me because of a little incident you caused this chaos?"The ringing of Alex's erupted the room and he turned around walking out of the room without any more words. Chris turned his gaze to Marcus who was still unconscious and frowned.Melissa

The cold freezing water flowing down Chris' body caused him to jerk up up I'm shock, panting as he tried to catch his breath and survey his unfamiliar surroundings."Wake up Prince Charming." He heard a familiar voice echo in his ear, he gazed at the man standing in front of him dressed in an all-black attire that gave off chilly vibes. "I don't have the entire day to wait for you."Chris winced in pain gazing at the man who hit him, his entire body ached and he felt intense pain in his head as warm liquid seeped out."Who are you?" Chris asked glaring at him."What are you so keen to know who I am since you would be dying here?" "At least I remember you once I'm out of here and you're six foots under…. Sorry, I forgot no one would be burying you." Chris chuckled amidst the intense pain he was feeling."You haven't changed have you?""You know it's bad manners not to introduce yourself." Chris frowned at him trying to get a view of his fave behind the mask and suddenly felt a sense o
