Chereads / Mr Ceo's mentally unstable wife / Chapter 3 - CHAPTER 3

Chapter 3 - CHAPTER 3

To everyone, Xaden was an idol whom everyone respected and adored,not just for his wealth alone but for his extremely good looks,he had so many admirers from other countries and although Xaden never had a main social media account ,one could count up to 65 social media accounts in his name and none of them had less than a million followers.

However, Xaden was one figure whom everyone failed to understand and the moment he was said to have supposedly lost his wife on their wedding day a year ago,he became even harder to understand as he was now always indoors,away from everyone,never attending any meetings or going to work but then surprisingly, about two months ago,he suddenly showed up and resumed his work and the moment he was out,he immediately regained back his title as the god of the business world, sweeping down in a flash the men who were once there as though he were born to rule, second place was never an option.

Upon entering his ride,the cars zoomed off towards the huge main gates which was about 3 minutes drive away from the mansion itself and soon they were on the highway.

Xaden was comfortably seated at the back swiping on his iPad looking at the stock rates of his company which seemed to be increasing every now and then.

"Hmmm, impressive" he murmured.

Due to the heavy traffic,the cars decided to follow another route that would get them faster to the office,after taking permission from Xaden and communicating with themselves,all five cars decided to swerve right in the next u turn.

As they entered the road, Xaden suddenly stopped what he was doing as he soon felt a strange feeling of deja Vu,he dropped his iPad and spared a minute to take a look at his surroundings and only then he realized why he had felt like that.

He looked ahead to see that they were approaching a bridge and Xaden found himself biting hard on his lips and clenching his fists,this was where it all begun,where death had almost taken the one and only person he had ever come to love immensely with his body,mind, soul and everything.

Xaden tilted his head as he began to reminisce on his and Mira's relationship about a year ago,he couldn't even begin to explain how a simple middle class girl like Mira actually managed to make him, a heartless cruel and big bad wolf to submit,how she made a man like him who never believed in love to surrender to love,a girl who made a ruthless Devil like him to fall on his knees,he couldn't even begin to reminisce on all that because it was an entirely different story.

But then,the scene in which had happened here a year ago was one that he'd never forget,even in his next life to come,it was an accident he still felt till date.

As they passed, Xaden glared at the river like he wanted to kill it.

Xaden remembered it was a year ago after he and Mira had fallen in love and he'd proposed to her of which she said yes.

At first they had done a simple court wedding after which they consummated their marriage that night and lived as a loving couple for about 3 weeks but then Xaden very much wanted to see his beloved wife in that white dress walking down the aisle to take those sacred vows with him,he wanted to announce to the whole world that Xaden Reigns had been leashed by his woman,he wanted to use his status as the wealthiest man in the country to give her a grand wedding .

They both agreed on it and they began planning the wedding to be one of the grandest that had ever happened in the country but then who knew that their wedding day would actually turn out to be the worst nightmare of their lives,a day that would turn their worlds upside down.

The wedding had been all set and Xaden was already on the altar waiting for his bride to be joined in holy matrimony with him but then they suddenly received a call that Mira's car had been involved in a ghastly accident by the bridge which was just about 6 minutes drive from the church,it happened that a huge truck had just appeared from nowhere and had run into them.

The car that day had contained the driver, Mira's mum,Mira herself and her Bride's Maid.

The attack on Mira's car that day had seemed to be a very calculated one because the fact that a convoy of cars were ahead and behind Mira's car that day didn't help at all,of all 6 cars,the truck had chosen to run into Mira's.

Xaden upon hearing the news on the altar immediately rushed to the scene hoping and praying that it was a minor incident but the moment he arrived at the scene and saw the state of the White Grand Cherokee his wife was in,his heart flew off his body and he almost ran mad.

It happened that the driver and the man at the passenger seat died on the spot alongside with Mira's mum and this was because they were at the front section of the car,the exact spot where the truck had run into,but Mira and her Bride's Maid who were at the back somehow managed to survive and hold on with lots of injuries and Mira's white gown stained with blood from the inside and outside,she was bleeding profusely from her thighs as it appeared she was pregnant and the strike by the truck had resulted into a heavy miscarriage.

Xaden upon arriving at the accident scene immediately rushed to first off all save his wife before anything else but to his utmost shock,his wife wasn't in the car anymore which was quite surprising and alarming too as everyone else was still in the car.

Xaden at first wanted to yell and panic on his wife's whereabouts but he suddenly halted when he noticed a trail of blood that had started from the car leading towards the wooden bridge above the river.

Xaden hastily followed the blood trail to the middle of the bridge where it had stopped, standing in the middle of the bridge,Xaden stared at the last trail blood with ambulance sirens all over the road,it seemed they had just arrived.

Xaden still standing in the middle dared not turn to his left as his side eye had just caught a glimpse of something white down at the river,he didn't want it to be what he was thinking but nevertheless he slowly turned around and looked down at the river.
