The Devil’s Convenient Wife Chapter 30
ZARA’S POV“What if it isn’t a business trip? What if it is something else?” Cael asked suggestively. I could tell he had his suspicions already.“It could be many things actually,” I muttered. “Maybe a trip to his mistress.”“Victor has a mistress?” he asked curiously.“Of course,” I nodded in reply. “He has mistresses in Bangkok, London, Paris, Barcelona, every major city he visits regularly. He had them even before the death of my mother.”“Did she know about it?” he asked.I smiled, “Take a guess.”“She did,” he replied.“Right,” I affirmed. “My mother wasn’t the kind of woman to be ignorant about sensitive matters like that. She knew about it but she ignored it. I doubt she ever confronted him.”“She would have,” Cael said lightly. “That is if she has ever loved him.”“I never saw her do it,” I muttered.“I don’t think they would have let you see,” he replied. That was right. Both of them used to keep malice for weeks yet I never saw any physical confrontation. They’d still sleep

VICTOR’S POVI tried to relax in the back seat but all I could remember was what happened in the villa. Ada was driving the car and she hadn’t said a word since we left the villa.I kicked her seat multiple times and heard her grunt. She applied the brakes, breathing hard.“Did you know how much you humiliated me out there?” I asked. “Such has never happened to me in my life. I had to eat my words in the presence of that obnoxious Zara and I had to leave in a hurry because I was embarrassed. Victor Calloway, of all people, was embarrassed.”“I am sorry, sir,” she muttered. “I should have been more careful. It won’t happen again, I promise.”“Of course, it won’t,” I replied angrily. “I am not foolish enough to give you such an important task next time.”“Sir, I promise I will not make this mistake next time. It was my first time, that’s why I was caught. Now that I have experienced failure, I will be able to embrace success. You said those words during the public lecture two years ago,
The Devil’s Convenient Wife Chapter 28
ZARA’S POVI sat down, genuinely embarrassed by what I had done. Now, Victor would know spilling the drinks on him wasn’t a mistake. With Victor and Cael’s eyes penetrating into me, I looked to the ground as if I was reflecting on myself.Victor and Cael didn’t speak but I was sure they were yelling at me in their head. The door opened and that was when I raised my head. The housekeeper who had entered moved towards us with another lady in tow.“I caught a culprit, madam,” the housekeeper said as she pushed this lady forward. It was my first time seeing her but she was too well-dressed to be a petty thief. I wondered what she was guilty of.“What is this about?” Victor asked before I could. “You are holding my secretary right there.”My eyes lit up and as I tried to stand, Cael lent me a hand. I turned to the housekeeper and Victor’s secretary.“Your secretary was speaking to one of the maids, offering her money in exchange for exclusive information,” the housekeeper said boldly. “In
The Devil’s Convenient Wife Chapter 27
ZARA’S POVI stood still, unable to believe what I had just heard. Victor wanted me to go to the kitchen and get him a drink. What did he think I was? A maid?I was about to ask if he was drunk or crazy when Cael held me, making me look into his eyes.“You should get that drink,” he told me. I had barely parted my lips to disagree when he leaned closer, “I need to talk to you… privately.”I sighed and walked out of the living room and into the kitchen. Cael waited behind, talking to Victor but a minute after I had gotten to the kitchen, he was there too.“Now what the hell was that!” I exclaimed. “Now Victor thinks I am his fucking slave. I should have put him in his place instantly but all thanks to you, I am going to be an object of ridicule. This is unacceptable and…”“Do you intend to hear me out?” Cael interrupted, his tone calm and collected. He gave me a gentle gaze and touched my shoulders, “Breathe. I want you to breathe, Zee.”I obeyed.“No one calls me Zee,” I muttered.“We
The Devil’s Convenient Wife Chapter 26
VICTOR’S POVThe car was on the highway, running at 80km per hour, a little slow for my liking. I didn’t particularly hate following traffic rules regarding speed but today was an exception. I was extremely anticipating seeing Zara, Cael, and the villa.The backroom gist was that I had found out they exited the hotel I booked for them and the next thing I did was track their current location. I figured out they could have gone to a villa and it wasn’t hard from there. The villa they had escaped to was somewhere I was familiar with. I had gone there a few times with my late wife, Zara’s mother.“You will need to keep your visit to the villa short,” I heard my secretary, Ada, say. She was right beside me in the car, wearing reading glasses while staring at the iPad’s screen.“Why? I love taking things slow and steady,” I muttered.“If you take your sweet time, you will miss the meeting you have tonight,” she said, looking directly at me. “Didn’t you say it is a meeting with your politic

ZARA’S POV“So conclusively…” I paused for a moment. “You were jealous.”“What! Why on earth would I be jealous?” he exclaimed in an attempt to brush it off. He sat down at the bar again and I joined him there. He turned his head slightly towards me, “Do you want a drink?”“Yeah, a glass or two,” I answered.“One glass will do, I don’t want to get you drunk for lunch,” he replied gently. He got me a glass and poured me some of the Vodka he was having. I drank slowly but without stopping and finished the drink in one shot. I dropped the glass on the table and gulped. Cael looked at me briefly, shaking his head sideways.“Why? Can’t I gulp in peace?” I asked sarcastically.He sighed, “You are very hot-tempered at times.”“I know,” I replied. “Maybe you should have found that out before you married me.”“Now you’re being feisty,” he muttered as he poured himself another drink. I pushed my glass forward but he pushed it back to me. “You’ve had enough for one day.”“But you keep on drinkin

ZARA'S POV“Have you been spying on me?” I asked. Cael couldn't reply to me so I continued, “You are supposed to be my husband, why are you acting like my enemy? Why would you follow me around?”“I didn't follow you,” he replied.“Then how would you know?” I shouted angrily.“The document you got f

ZARA'S POV“It is quite remarkable and unbelievable at the same time,” the hostess said out of excitement. “I have heard of Mr. Cael and Ashford Capital and it's an honor to have him on the show today. I think it's quite a shocker for our audience. Would you tell us the story of your relationship w

ZARA’S POVAs I drove through the gates of my new home, I couldn’t help but think about how I would look Cael in the eye when I saw him. I had just asked for a background check on him since I couldn’t trust him. Was it really possible for me not to let it show?I was met by the head of housekeeping

ZARA’S POV“Gift?” I asked as I laughed sarcastically. “With all due respect, my husband and I didn’t ask for your goodwill. It won’t be necessary.”Victor turned towards Cael, “Do you also agree with your wife? Is it right for you to have a hushed wedding and no honeymoon? I wonder what people wou
