The Wife I Never Met
Chapter 66

Could I have upsetted her in some way, or maybe is it that she doesn’t like the car’ Liam questioned himself.

Ciara sniffed and tried to hold back her tears.

” I do, I love it a lot. Why the heck would I be sad or angry when there’s a range rover right in front of me. We are talking about my favorite car here. ”

She then rushed to give him a tight hug, before thanking him for that wonderful gift. The car she had been saving for and had been in her vision board for quite some time now.

” no need to thank me. If we don’t get going now we both will be late for work. ”

That was when Ciara noticed that they’ve waisted a lot of time in the garage and now needed to go to the company as soon as possible. She uncovered the car but still couldn’t hold herself from admiring her brand new car. She walked around it a couple of times before opening the driver’s seat and got in. But instead of starting the car, she was touching and feeling everything in the interior of the car. And Liam on the other side was amused by this as he laughed at her.

” hey are you going to invite me in or what?.”

” owh Right!! Come in we will be late for work. ”

She said it, as if Liam hadn’t told her that just a moment ago. Seeing that Ciara wasn’t about to let him drive her new car, Liam got in the front passenger seat and closed the door.

Ciara then started the car and headed to the business district straight to Liam’s building and dropped him off. Immediately after he exited her car, Ciara noticed that his aura had now changed. Just a moment ago he was a cheerful, loving family man who loves to fool around at times. But now he had changed to a completely different person, he was now that aloof unapproachable CEO that everyone feared. Even when he walked, he had that superiority aura around him.

She watched him walk in to the building before driving straight to her workplace, but because she was running late, Ciara did not have the time to park in the underground parking dedicated for the staff as well as the president. Instead she parked her new car in the visitor’s parking space in front of the building.

At this time as everyone was entering the building they were all looking at the woman driving that expensive car, some guessed that she might be the president’s wife but some decided to wait and see who she was.

The door of the range rover opened and one foot touched the ground, the shoes she was wearing shocked everyone at the foya, they were expecting to see a rich woman in a pair of long high heels and a business attire but instead of that the woman who came out of that car was actually wearing sneakers and sweat pants. Those were the joys of being a writer, what she wears didn’t really matter, but what mattered the most was the content she created.

” Arg it’s that little third Ciara, I thought it was someone more important. ”

” wait how could she afford to buy such a, or maybe she borrowed it from someone. ”

” how would I know, that woman is capable of doing anything. This car probably belongs to one of her sugar daddies. ”

” guys don’t be like that, what if she bought this car herself, I heard that her career has been doing very well lately. ”

” even so there’s never smoke where there’s no fire. One way or the other she is involved with Mr Jones. ”

The coworkers gossiped among themselves, although some were quiet, but those who envied Ciara were the ones who spoke the most.

They soon settled down in their stations while waiting to be called in for their annual briefing. Soon the door opened and Ciara walked in and headed to her station as well.

” The nerve of this woman, some people are just too thick skinned that would really show up to work after all the trouble she had caused through social media.”

” Talk about a third party mistress, the mayor’s daughter should have taught her a lesson. ”

Now that she was closer some of the women in her department grew more jealous of her, although she was dressed simply in sweat pants and sneakers but all those were from famous expensive brands. Now because of that, they were even bold to say all those nasty things about her straight in her face.

But Ciara who knew that none of the things they were saying about her were true, decided not to waist her energy trying to clarify to these bunch of idiots. But when they saw that Ciara wasn’t saying anything about the gossip the others who had been neutral all this time thought that there might be some truth in this.

” see, she knows too that she nothing but a home wrecker. Exactly what they said about her on the internet. ”

All the writers were soon called in for the annual briefing, which was nothing but going through the previous year and discussing ways to improve their skill on the new year. The meeting didn’t take even an hour and they were allowed to leave.

” ohw my God Cici, you are so scarce these days where have you been? Owh my god you guys must do something about the hospitality and professionalism in this place, I’m the mayor’s daughter for heaven sake why are they treating me like an animal in the zoo. ”

That was none than Annie whom they said should have beaten Ciara up for being a third wheel in their relationship. Now when Ciara’s collegues saw how friendly Annie was to Ciara it was as if they were struck by lightning. They all looked at Ciara in shock, isn’t she supposed to be the third party, are they not supposed to be enemies?. Those were the questions they mumbled among themselves.
