All Chapters of Dirty Secrets : Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

XavierShe wasn’t supposed to tell the story; I know how uncomfortable she’s going to be telling the story and the more I watch her pick her pinky finger, the more I want to reach forward and wrap my hands around Miller’s neck for letting things get this far.This is partly Shun’s fault; he shouldn’t have brought up anything about the company. This case should have been strictly for Derek’s murder. My fist clenched and unclenched on my thigh as I watched my wife struggle; I promised her that everything would be fine, yet there she is, out of my reach, uncomfortable as hell.“It all started when I met my husband Xavier on a plane back from Mexico. We hit it off immediately but he failed to give out his last name, his principles I guess. We had fun before I returned to my family to meet my sister’s fiancée who I’d never seen before, nor did I know his first name. Natasha always referred to him by his last name.”She took a deep breath. “I got home that day only to find out that the guy

XavierAngela’s willingness to free Mateo leaves a bitter taste in my mouth every damn time. I had to keep myself from asking crazy questions because she has been through a lot that day; If I should go ahead to demand why she wants Mateo roaming around, it might not end well for both of us; I mean it already got tense when I mentioned Aaron’s visit to her room on our wedding day.How dare she call me unbelievable when she’s always hiding things that she ought to tell me? “You want to know what’s unbelievable?” I took a deep breath, willing myself to calm down “What’s unbelievable is the fact that Aaron paid you a visit in your room at the villa on our wedding day and you failed to mention it to me.” My jaw clenched. “Why is that?”“It’s not what you think.” She whispered.“You definitely do not know what’s going through my head right now.” I want to shoot the motherfucker for seeing my bride before me. “You do not know what I’m thinking Angela.”“He only came to search for his little

AngelaXavier has the guts to behave as if nothing happened; as if he didn’t accuse me of having an affair with Aaron. I know he didn’t mean that, but he’s too stubborn to take it back. I’ll teach him to apologize when he’s wrong.Natasha hasn’t shown up in the office yet after the board temporarily suspended her. I’ve been running the day-to-day activities of the company and trust me, I feel so good while doing that. The sudden news that I once worked for a company that steals design from our company doesn’t settle well with the workers. Although not in my presence, I know the murmur and gossip.Don’t get me started on the board members. I’ve been expecting a sudden board meeting to discuss the recent development, but to my greatest surprise, I haven’t heard anything from them. That doesn’t mean I’m relaxed; if anything, I’m more anxious. Silence could mean that they are planning something that they definitely won’t like, or that Natasha is using the situation to her advantage; after

AngelaReturning to court is like returning to a new different reality. For the past few days, I’ve forgotten the fact that we still have a murderer to put behind bars. Sitting with the rest of the family, I watched people, one young lady to be particular being called to be witness stand to give her testimony. According to what Fredrick informed the crowd, the young lady whose make is yet to be mentioned is one of the domestic staff of Shirley's family.Throughout my life as a Shirley, I’ve never seen this young lady before. To my best knowledge, she never worked for the Shirleys, but then who am I to say? After all, I left home for over three years.Miller stood up to interrogate the young lady who is known by the name Clarissa. If anyone can figure out that she’s full of shit, then it’s definitely Miller. He has a way of figuring out a lie from the truth, and he also happens to have a talent for being able to conceal without unease whatever lies he wants the crowd or the people to

Angela Something fishy must have happened last night. I do not want to accuse anyone wrongly, but last night, I woke up and didn’t find Xavier on the bed, I assumed he left in the middle of the night to handle work issues in his office, but when I went to his office, I didn’t find anyone there; as a matter of fact, I didn’t find Xavier anywhere around the house. I had contemplated calling but decided against it when I noticed that Lucas too was absent.Imagine waking up to the news that Hailey Dante died in a fire outbreak in her own house. Painting my lips red, I grabbed my black handbag off the bed and walked out of the room. Kenz left for school an hour ago, so I do have any reason to head to her room first.Luckily for me, Xavier was all alone in this office when I walked in. Dressed in a navy blue suit with his hair styled backward, he searched for a file frantically. He was too invested in finding whatever he was searching for that he didn’t hear me walk into his office.“Did y
