My wife's secrets

Chapter 8

Chris dialed the number that had just texted him but it was switched off which angered him, How could anyone sprout such nonsense and be scared to talk afterward?

Just then someone called his phone and saw it was his assistant at his company, he immediately answered the call placing the phone on his ear.

"Good morning sir." His assistant Marcus greeted. "There's a situation." He sounded distressed and Chris knew instantly that something was wrong.

"What do you mean there's a situation?" Chris questioned making his way back to his car.

"Well there is a large painting on the company building with the word shame," Marcus explained, Chris paused for a second wondering if it was the person that had a person that had texted him initially, he couldn't think of another person who would do such a thing.

"Well do so things about it before it causes any issues, Also have you been able to find out the culprit?"

"No one has been brought forward yet but I'm on it, sir."

"Good, I'll be on my way there." Chris ended the call and sighed clenching his fists in anger as he got into his car and drove to his company, In a few minutes he arrived in front of his company building and saw what his assistant had called his attention to, he stared at it with disdain knowing that it was the bastard from earlier who had don't this doubt and although it won't cost him anything to take that off the press would make up a story after this, he handed his keys I er to his chauffeur who was already waiting beside his car.

"Good morning sir." He greeted bowing slightly at him.

"Morning," Chris answered and walked into the building, his assistant walked right beside him and started to fill him in with the details of what was happening.

"Why isn't it down yet?" Chris asked aggravated by how long it was taking, this could cause a really big loss on his path if the stock fell due to someone's foolishness.

"I'm working on it, sir." 

"What about the CCTV footage?" Chris asked making his way toward the VIP passage that led to the VIP elevator.

"It's broken," Marcus answered, Chris stopped walking and turned around to look at him with a friend on his face, if not that he had worked with Marcus for a long time he won't resist firing him at this moment because he was more than pissed off.

"How the hell did someone break in here? Is there an explanation?"

"I'm also working on it, I've tried checking the other footage of them entering the building but they didn't leave any traces," Marcus informed him as they both got into the elevator, Chris silently ransacked his mind wondering who this anonymous person was. He finally got to the last floor where his office was and walked inside with a frown. His day just kept getting worse by every counting minute. Chris walked behind his desk and sat down leaning his head in the chair shutting his eyes and thinking of what to do he knew this was going to cause trouble for him.

"I'll go attend to other things sir, please let me know if you need something." With that Marcus turned around and left silently. Chris put his head on his arm lost in thought that he didn't notice his secretary Melissa walk in.

"Good morning sir." She chimed with a smile on her face even though she sensed his foul mood and knew what had happened. "Here's the report of the stock updated, luckily There won't be any kisses secured today." She explained and he slowly looked up at her. Melissa was exceptionally beautiful and had always been the talk of men around her, she was slim and at the same time perfectly trimmed as though she was the perfect image of what men wanted, her brown silky hair tell to her shoulders like a bob and her red lipstick illuminated her appearance. 

"Are you okay sir?" She called out to Chris who seemed to be lost in thoughts again and snapped out it.

"Just drop the report on my desk, I'll go over it later." He told her and she did as he said and turned around walking towards the door, Chris also stood up and made his way towards the door when she suddenly turned around bumping into him, she tried to move away but her heels twisted making her lean closer to him, Chris was surprised by this and was in shock not moving from where he was and stared at her, he could feel her soft boobs on his chest making him awkward, he gently helped her balance her self turning around shyly.

"I'm sorry sir." She apologized and quickly made her way out of the office before anything else could happen. J let Otiba sight and walked towards the bar sectioning his office poured himself a glass of whisky and was about to take a guy when his phone rang out, he looked it from his pocket to see who it was and saw it was his very close friend Brian who he hadn't seen or talked to for weeks now due to his busy life.

"Look who decided to call today." Chris sneered gulping his whiskey down and scrunching his face to the aftertaste, he made his way to his chair and sat in it.

"Haha funny," Brian said with a sarcastic tone. "Well, I do have something to ask just to prove my hunch wrong."

"What?"

"How's Aria? You two alright?" Brian wasn't sure if it was right to ask that question but he needed to know if his friend had fought with his wife.

"She's fine, I'll send her regards-" Brian interrupted him before he could finish his sentence.

"Chris… I just hope I'm wrong about this…. I think I saw something I shouldn't see." Brian trailed off leaving Chris in suspense. What does he mean by that? What is going on?
