Emma's mouth was wide open in total shock, in front of her was her boss sitting on his chair kissing and caressing a lady in a red dress.
Her eyes rolled in anger as she also realized that her boss who was kissing and caressing the lady in red dress was also her husband Ethan.
"Ethan!" Emma mouthed for the first time since her marriage, she had never called her husband by his name.
Emma angrily jammed the door as she left the office in anger while forgetting that her boss called her.
"Why is your face green with anger?" Emily asked Emma. "Did the boss do anything to you?" Emily asked Emma in successions.
Emma was fuming in anger, she just wanted to bash her so-called husband with a weapon on his head. She never liked him but she couldn't stand seeing him with another woman instead.
"Emily… " Emma broke down and began to sob. "The boss is my husband!"
"Your husband? How possible is that." Emily asked Emma. "If he is your husband, then why are you sobbing? Is it a bad thing for your husband to be your boss?" Emily continued with her questions.
"Emily, he is kissing and caressing another woman in his office" Emma answered Emily amidst tears.
What Emma said made Emily really pity her. "Really, that's too bad of him. Am so sorry about that Emma." Emily hugged Emma tightly as she wiped off the tears from Emma's face.
"You need to be strong Emma. You can't break down just like this." Emily continued consoling Emma.
Emma soon got control of herself and stopped crying. She wiped off her tears with a white handkerchief Emily gave her.
"Who was the person you said you saw with the boss when you went to his office?" Emily inquired.
"I didn't see the lady, but she was putting on a red dress. She resembled the lady in red dress that entered earlier in the day." Emma was trying hard to remember who the lady in Ethan's office looked like. "It's her! It's the secretary that was with him in his office." Emma's eyes rolled and glistened in joy knowing that she now knows the lady that her husband Ethan used to cheat on her.
Emma spent the rest of her working hours thinking about what she saw, was her husband Ethan doing it on purpose just to make her jealous. Was it a way to punish her for disobeying his orders? Only time will tell.
The closing time came, Emily and Emma quickly got ready and left for their respective homes after exchanging goodbye for the day.
At home, Emma was tired from the day's work, so she moved into the bathroom and took a hot bath and had her dinner afterwards.
The dining door swung open and Ethan walked in with an aura of authority all around him. Emma looked at him and gave out a loud hiss. Ethan walked straight to his room while Emma continued her dinner.
Soon, Emma was done with her dinner and she went into her room. She was thinking of how she will confront Ethan for what she saw him doing in his office earlier in the day. Emma gave it a quick thought and stood up in anger and walked towards Ethan's door. She knocked loudly thrice and waited for an answer.
"Come in." Ethan commanded from inside the room. " What are you doing here? " Ethan asked immediately.
Emma looked at Ethan's stature as he was sitting on a beside chair in the room. She admired his chiseled features, his jaws and blue eyeballs that were worth dying for. Emma was giving in to her feminine animal instincts but soon got control of herself again.
"You're a cheat Ethan. You are cheating on me with your secretary." Emma garnered the courage to speak to Ethan, her strength was indeed failing her. Ethan's seductive features didn't give her the chance to express the anger she felt.
"What do you mean?" Ethan asked back as if he didn't hear anything Emma said.
"I caught you red handed, you cheated!You were kissing your secretary and you pretended as if I didn't see anything." Emma was now sobbing as she remembered the scene. It was all fresh in her head.
"And who are you to tell me what to do and what not to do? " Ethan asked furiously. "Now get out of my room immediately!"
"I hate you Ethan, I hate you with all my heart." Emma mouthed amidst tears. She hated the way Ethan treated her at the same time she just can't let any woman take him away from him.
She was near the door to go out when she bumped into something and fell down.
"Hey bitch, watch where your steps are!" A female voice shouted at Emma who was laying on the floor due to the sudden fall she had. Emma looked at the lady who was standing in front of the door and recognized that she was the same person that walked past her and Emily at the office. Emma froze in anger as she gave Ethan a disgusting look. "Emma, this is Anne." Ethan moved towards the door as he pulled Anne into the room and kissed her romantically. He closed the door while Emma ran off to her room, tears flowing freely down her cheeks. Emma was still recovering from the shock of seeing Ethan with the lady in the red dress who she now knows to be Anne by name, now she was also in her husband's house and in his room with him. She tried her best to get the thoughts off her mind but it was not working, her face still soaked in tears. She finally slept off on her bed.Early in the morning, Emma prepared and left for work. The thoughts of yesterday night was still on her mind. At the of
"I can't buy such an idea from you?" Emma said in a coarse voice to Mrs. Detroit."My idea isn't that bad if you think it through." Mrs. Detroit said while standing beside the white hospital bed. "There is nothing to think about here, your idea is just as unbelievable like you're. How do you want me to marry a man I have never met in my life, don't even know how he behaves just because of money?" This time Emma spoke with a heavy voice. " Well my idea isn't a bad one at all if you look at it with an open mind you know!, Besides you should consider my idea because your brother lying here on this hospital bed has no means of survival if you don't source for money to treat him, and you know your father is no more alive to foot the bills! " Mrs. Detroit said to Emma is a voice that screamed wickedness."You are unbelievable, I can find other means to raise money for to treat my brother, but as for your idea of me marrying someone for money, it's a big NO!" Emma said this as she began to
The door swung open and Mrs. Detroit came inside Emma's room for the third time in the day. "Don't do anything stupid on your wedding day or else!" She turned around and left.Two days later."Emma! Emma!! Emma!!! Come along, your husband is waiting for you outside. Today is your wedding day." Mrs. Detroit walked hastily into Emma's room. Emma looked up at her stepmother who was standing beside the door. "I'm ready." Emma said as she stood up from the chair she was sitting on." Alright, let's go." Mrs Detroit held Emma's hand as they walked out of the room. In front of their house, a black car was waiting for them. Emma walked into the car but was surprised to find that Ethan wasn't there. It was his driver that was here to pick her. They zoomed off to the church. In less than 15 minutes, they were in front of the church and Emma stepped out of the car. She walked towards the aisle where Ethan was waiting for her. On the altar, the priest was about to commence the marriage rites wh
A loud knock came on her door and Emma jumped out of her bed as she went to see who was knocking on her door. As she opened the door, she was surprised to see the maid standing there gasping for air. It was obvious she was running and had lost energy. "What is the problem?Why are you running as if someone is chasing you?" Emma asked the maid. "The boss sent me to fetch you immediately!" the maid answered Emma. "You mean Ethan sent you to fetch me?" Emma asked suspiciously. "Yes, and he said you should come with me immediately!" the maid answered back."Fine, let's go." Emma followed the maid as they left to answer Ethan. Emma entered the large sitting room to meet Ethan who was fuming in anger. He looked at Emma with an eye that meant millions of things at the same time."What did you do?" Ethan asked Emma sharply."What did I do?" Emma asked simultaneously."Why did you go out to search for a job? Why did you disobey my orders?" Ethan's voice was filled with anger as he looked at
