Catherine ran off from the office and when she stepped out of the company, she met William with his assistant behind him. The moment she set her eyes on him, she immediately felt her heart stop beating for atleast a second. She immediately grew nervous because she knew she just finished snooping around his office.
When she walked towards them, she noticed Jorge whisper something to William's hearing and after a moment, he noded and rushed into the office, leaving Catherine and William alone together.
"What are you still doing here?" William asked in a stern voice.
"I told you I had extra work to do. I was already leaving anyway." Catherine said.
"Okay,"
Catherine stood there, wondering why William came back to the office, and patiently waiting for him to tell her why.
"Just so you know, I owe you no explanation to why I'm here." He said, responding to her thoughts like he could read her mind.
Catherine glared at him with irritation in her eyes, feeling his response was very much unnecessary.
Immediately after their conversation, William's assistant came back, "Did you get it?" William asked.
"Yes sir." Jorge said, handing over a brown file to William.
"Okay good. Let's go." William said as he made his way towards the car and Catherine just stood there, rubbing her hand against her left arm since it was starting to get really cold.
Jorge noticed Catherine standing there like she was waiting for them to leave, she pulled out her phone and ordered an Uber since she didn't come with her car that day.
"Sir, ma'am is still out here, won't she come with us?" Jorge asked politely.
William immediately remembered that he is supposed to act as a loving husband to his supposed wife Catherine especially in public.
"Oh! No don't worry, I already called an U--" Catherine before completing her statement was interupted by William, "Of course she'll come with us. I just wanted to get the door for her." He said letting off a fake smile.
"Okay then sir." Jorge said, shooting a wide smile at William and then Catherine.
Deep down, William didn't want Catherine to go with him, since he had other plans later that day to go see someone very special to him. But it seemed like his plan was already ruined since Jorge was so eager for Catherine to go with them.
Lateron, they had finally arrived at the house. Catherine's felt the buzzing sound of her phone deep in her purse, when she finally got a hold of it. She noticed felice was calling. While she was taking the call, she slowly down in her footsteps while William had already made his way to the bedroom.
Catherine: Hey girl.
Felice: Hey what's up? Are you home already?
Catherine: Yeah, yeah. I'm home now.
Felice: so we're you able to do what you planned to do the other day? You know sneak into William's office?"
Before Catherine continued to speak, she looked up towards the stairs to make sure William was out of site. She now went to the bathroom downstairs to take the call in a very quiet tone.
Catherine: Yeah, I was able to. Apparently, William wants to manipulate my father into giving him his business company just so he can merge it."
Felice: merge it? Are you fucking with me?! So he indirectly wants to steal your father's company.
Catherine: exactly! This is why he needs my father's signature. If daddy should sign any of those documents, we'll be done for! We'll have nothing left.
Felice: Woah! William maybe winning in the face game, but damn! He's so evil! So damn evil! That's so selfish of him, have you told your parents?
Catherine: well no, I haven't, I haven't told them. But I plan to go tell them, in person so maybe they would understand the weight of what I'm trying to warm them against.
Felice: I hope they listen. You know how your father can be some times.
Catherine: you don't need to tell me that twice. I'll make sure he listens. But I'll go first thing tomorrow morning. Right now William is home, I don't want him to notice or suspect anything. His assistant didn't even know I was there.
Felice: please be careful Catherine! This is very risky.
Catherine: always! Don't worry. I'll call you later. Let me freshen up.
Felice: okay no problem. Talk to you later. Bye.
Catherine: Bye
Catherine hung up the phone and opened the door gently, she peeped through the sides to make sure nobody was there to eavesdrop or anything. Luckily it was just her. When she got out of the bathroom, she heard a familiar voice.
It sounded like there was another woman in the house, and that woman wasn't any of the maids because she had never heard that voice before. She overheard whoever this woman was, telling someone else that she had really wanted to see him that day and she missed him so much so she decided to come and see him instead.
The first thoughts that came to Catherine's mind was that, it was probably Jorge and maybe his girlfriend since William had already gone upstairs. So she tiptoed to go confirm who those people in the living room were.
When she opened the door, she barged into William and a strange woman, kissing each other passionately. Her eyes grew wide and her jaw dropped as she saw the way William's hands travelled around this woman's body.
With love and passion written all over their faces.
She froze at the sight of it. She didn't know what to say, she just stood there with her hand still holding the handle of the door as she watched her supposed husband touch a woman in a way he has never touched her before.
"Who the fuck is this?!" Catherine thought to herself.
