I smashed my hand against my office table. Blood started trickling in between my knuckles. I didn't mind. My mission has just failed.
After I dumped her into the water, I thought that ashe was gone for good. Now, a relative of mine is saying that she is alive?
But how can she recognize her in a different form?
Or was he dreaming?
No. He wasn't. My phone buzzed with utmost excitement. I checked the caller ID:
Friend.
I grinned.
"Tell me." I said.
"I lost her sir." The voice at the other end said with fearvin his voice. I banged at my table again.
"How?!" I roared.
"I...I am so sorry sir." The man said. I sighed deeply.
"I should have just killed her in the spot. So she is alive?" I asked.
"Yes sir, as alive as anyone else. Except..." The man started.
"Tell me." I ordered.
"She is quite different from the picture you sent to me ."
"What do you mean?"
The man started talking. My jaw dropped.
****
Jade walked in my office holding a file.
" Sir, you have to sign these."
"Not now." I replied coldly. I wasn't just in the mood to do any office work. If Susie is alive; my plans of inheriting her father's properties might crumble down. I bit my lip. Jade sighed and stared at my hands. She gasped.
"Oh my God! Why did you do this to yourself? You are fucking bleeding!"
She grabbed some wet wipes and started cleaning the blood on my hands;
"You know, if something is on your mind, you can tell me..." She was cut off by a knock on the door. I sat up a little as Natasha walked in.
"Hey babyyyy!" Natasha said with utmost excitement. I tried to force a smile and kissed her. She doesn't need to know about this. Natasha smiled.
"I was just passing by and I felt that we should have lunch together." Natasha suggested. She took a glance at my hands and saw blood.
"What happened to your knuckles?!" She cried.
"I accidentally cut myself." I said. She looked at me strangely.
"You really need to be careful baby." Natasha said. She held my hands, Jade bot her lip. She planted her lip on mine and I couldn't control myself. Suddenly, she stopped, and stared at Jade. Her eyes fell on Jade's waist.
"Why are you wearing such a short skirt to work? Do you want to seduce my husband?" Natasha questioned. I just stared at Natasha with a wave of humour. I smiled. Jade scoffed.
" As of today, you should never dress like this. You look like a whore!" Natasha ordered. Jade opened her mouth to say something but I have her a sign not to say anything. She just glared at Natasha and rolled her eyes:
" Yes ma'am." She said. I could feel the sarcasm in her sentence. It was like she was saying:' Stupid woman, you don't even know that I have fucked your husband several times in the very chair that you are sitting on!'
"Baby, maybe not today, I have lots of meetings to attend." I reasoned. Natasha looked at me with disgust.
"But I came all this way to meet you baby. Can't you postpone your appointment? " Natasha whined. She started giving me those watery eyes that I couldn't stand. She keeps on acting like a child.
"I can't sweetheart. Maybe tomorrow, I promise." I begged. She sighed.
" Okay, but that whore shouldn't follow me." She pointed at Jade. Jade just pretended not to care and just looked at her. I could feel the rage in her eyes.
" Goodbye sweetheart." I kissed her forehead. Natasha stood up and headed for the door.
As soon as she left, Jade attacked me.
"So which meeting is happening now?" I said, trying to act professional.
" Me" Jade saod and crushed her lips on mine. I didn't stop her, I allowed it. She sat on my laps, and I placedy hands on her ass. She gasped for breath as I went deepened the kiss. She moaned.
"I couldn't stand seeing your wife kissing you." She whispered.
I smiled and started removing her shirt. She understood what was going to happen next and helped me.
Five minutes later, it was all over.
I started dressing myself up. Jade just stared at me, not moving an inch of even making any move to dress up. I could feel her hard cold stare.Her eyes were all over me.
"Get dressed before anyone comes." I said coldly. I headed for the door.
"You haven't told me the reason you hurt yourself." Jade said. I froze.
" It's personal." I shot back and walked out.
I started thinkin
g of Susie again. Of what the man said.
"...she looked different..."
Looked different?
