The Billionaire’s Mysterious Wife Chapter One Hundred Thirty Seven
Eve took graceful steps down the street. She was dressed in a floral purple gown and tied her hair into a loose bun. While fixing her make-up that morning, she noticed the sudden change in her weight after facing the dressing mirror. She couldn't help but wonder how possible it was to lose much weight in a week.She adjusted the black bag that hung around her arm and hailed a cab. Immediately after stepping inside the vehicle, she heaved a deep sigh and pressed her bag to her chest wondering what awaits her at the office.After she got to the company, she met a group of security personnel at the entrance who took turns greeting her and asking about her health. She knew it, word had gone around the company that she was involved in an accident with the CEO.At the reception, the workers who were heading out and others who were marching to their units stopped to greet her. She smiled faintly at them and almost got tired of telling them that she had fully recovered.Thank Goodness she had

The aggressive pushing of Henry's door inside caused him to lift his head with a quirked brow.The furious Eve walked into the office fuming while Phil hurried after her amidst heavy pants."I'm sorry!" Phil apologised and tried to catch his breath. He wiped the sweat that had teamed up on his forehead with the back of his palm.Who could have thought that trying to calm down a raging woman would turn out to be such hard work?Henry sighed and dropped the pen he was clasping on the file before him. He lifted his head and caught Eve standing before him like a volcano that was going to erupt. Her lips were curled up in irritation.Henry pointed to the door. "It's okay Phil, you can head back to your office."Eve turned to stare at the new assistant. Did Henry just ask him to return to his office? Does that mean that he had replaced her?"Impossible!" she muttered under her breath before giving a long hiss.Phil gave a slight bow. "I tried to stop her boss but she wouldn't listen to me.

Henry cast his gaze on the table and went on checking the file before him. He lifted his head and discovered that she was still towering above him.What else? he thought and positioned both his hands on the table knowing that she still had a lot to say."Why didn't you check up on me?" she blurted with her gaze fixed on him.Henry wanted to hold up her stare but he didn't. From her eyes, he could sense that she was hurt and he wondered whether he had betrayed her."I forgot." He replied with his face averted from her.Eve gave a dry smile. Oh hell, he didn't forget about her. She knew he abandoned her and wasn't ready to tell her why."I remember every damn thing," she told him.Henry swallowed and turned to her. "You do?" he demanded with a raised brow.She gave repeated nods. After she left the hospital, her mother and Olivia engaged her in a series of interviews trying to figure out whether she recalled what triggered the accident.She gave them cold replies stating that the last

FLASHBACK"I really need this job sir and I promise you, I'll ensure you don't regret hiring me." Phil had vowed during his interview.That was a week ago when Henry felt he needed an assistant because of the loads of work he was having in his hands.It was at that point that Henry got to ponder on the cliche 'YOU WON'T KNOW THE VALUE OF WHAT YOU HAVE UNTIL YOU LOSE IT.'Eve had been such a great assistant that he didn't get the chance to complain about the cumbersome nature of his job until she was confined in that hospital ward and to crown his woes, his secretary was on a week's leave.He could have gotten anyone to help him do the job in the company but Henry believes that everyone should do one job at a time to promote efficiency.Dane had advised that he gets an assistant hinting at the fact that Eve might not return since she declared her interest in pulling out from the contract and that was how he was linked up with Phil."The job is tasking. I work with professionals and don

It was obvious Henry was between the devil and the deep blue sea. There was Eve on one hand who was mad at him and now Phil. He shifted his gaze to the man kneeling before him.He sat and positioned both his hands on the table, staring down at Phil. "Listen, Phil, I need you to get off that floor.""Please don't take away the job from me." Phil cried out without moving an inch.Henry gave the table a tight slap and yelled. "I said get off that floor." Phil quickly rose to his feet and sat.Henry took his head into his hands. What was going on with him?He stared at Phil for a moment before darting his gaze to the wall. "I'm sorry Phil, I didn't mean to yell at you like that."Phil faked a smile. Henry can even go ahead and hurl insults at him. All he wanted was to keep the job and wouldn't mind rolling on the floor like a nagging child to remain employed."I don't even know what to do." Henry pondered out loud with his gaze fixed on the file before him. If he had known that things w

Henry stared at the watch adorned on his left wrist and darted his gaze to the door. It was ten minutes past the time Phil left his office to get the items he'll be presenting to Eve in his bid to apologise to her. He began hitting his left palm on the table, producing a rhythm. The door to his office was pulled open and the impatient Henry lifted his head and cast it at the door.He sighed in relief and sat up after Phil stepped in. Phil was clinging to a bouquet in his left hand while the box of chocolates was in his right hand.He strode to Henry and placed the items on the table. "I'm sorry sir, I took a lot of time. You specified that the chocolates must not have nuts in them so I had to look for plain chocolate.Henry flashed a quick smile. "It's okay Phil."He stared at the square-shaped box of chocolates and grabbed the bouquet of roses.The scent from the bouquet made its way into his nostrils and his brain quickly picked up a sweet sensation."Good job Phil."Phil slipped

Henry gave his forehead a delicate scrape and took steps to the table. "I chose Phil because...""Because you feel he's going to do a better job than me?" she fired with anger in her voice."That's not the bone of contention Eve. I want Phil to come with me because I don't want to stress you," replied Henry.Eve broke into a dry laugh. "Are you kidding me? Do I look stressed to you?" Henry sighed. "Trust me, Eve, I want the best for you." he maintained. "Take it from the boss Eve. He wants the best for you." Phil commented and cast his gaze to the floor. He knew the remark was going to attract another glare from Eve.She gave a long hiss and threw her back against the chair. "The best for me indeed.""It's a three-hour meeting Eve and judging by your condition, I'll advise you remain here while Phil attends the meeting."Eve sat up and raised a brow. "Condition?"She wondered why Henry was making it sound as if she was in a delicate condition and needed to be monitored."I came to w

Henry was taken aback by Eve's response. He arched a brow. "You can't leave?"She looked up at him and noticed that he was staring at her blankly. If she tells him that her legs were cramped, then he was surely going to yell at her for being disobedient."Why don't you leave? I'll just go through the notes I've taken down. I'll join you later." She said with a fake smile plastered across her face."Oka..y" Henry slowly replied. He could tell that Eve was lying to him. She wouldn't be going through any damn notes. She just wanted to dismiss him."I'll join you shortly in the office." She shooed him away.He gave repeated nods and marched out of the room still suspecting that there was a problem.Immediately after Henry stepped out of the hall, he strode to the back of the conference hall and stood beside a large window. From his chosen spot, he could see Eve by peeping through the window.He watched her rub her palms against one another vigorously. He noticed the pain in her eyes when
