The Wife I Never Met
Chapter 71

At this time Dexter was at the Wilson’s home reporting back to the mayor who was already furious about the outcome.

” what do you mean they are married, that’s impossible Maggie would never accept that girl. You didn’t do enough, I’ll give you one more chance to prove yourself right but if you fail again… That will be the end of you.”

He then dismissed Dexter so that he could have some time to think.

As Dexter left the mansions, he was gritting his teeth in anger. Unfortunately for him he could not express his feelings in front of Wilson but had to fulfill all his requests.

Initially he wanted nothing to do with Ciara because of how fast she had moved on with her life. For someone who had never wanted to have s*x with him before they got married but immediately threw herself at Liam when they separated, to him a woman like that is loose and of course looked at her as a wolf in sheep skin. So with that he knew that he would never be with a woman like that, but now that he found out that Ciara was actually married to Liam, something sparked within him.

‘ was I wrong about her all along.’

He thought the possibility of them faking the marriage was high but for the mere fact that a man like Liam was smitten over Ciara, he too wanted a piece of that cake.

Maybe putting up with Wilson’s demands for a while isn’t a bad thing after all. Now that he was doing it for himself he reflected on what he had done wrong on their previous encounter so that he could change his approach the next time they meet.

With renewed strength, he dialed a string of numbers and soon his call was connected and instructed the person on the other end of the call to report to him when ever Ciara is out.

He thought maybe there might be a chance for him to explore the woman he left days before their wedding day. Although he was in a relationship with Ciara’s cousin Boity this didn’t stop him for going for what he wanted.

He then got in to his car and drove straight to his house which he was now sharing with Boity. Ever since Wilson started threatening them with a video of them in their most intimate state Boity spent most of her ti

time in Dexter’s home. Although she was stressed out about someone replaceing out about the video, she was even more scared of Dexter potential falling in love with Ciara through the process which was why she kept tabs on him.

When Dexter got home, he walked in to Boity who was pacing up and down seemingly agitated by something.

” Did you replace her? How did it go? I hope you didn’t do what you are not supposed to do with her, I know that you guys were once a couple.”

Her questioning annoyed Dexter in a way and made him wish he did not return back home.

” You and I both know that I’m doing all of this for us, this will help me as much as it will help you. But if you want I can stop and let’s see how you will deal with the Williams on your case. I on the other hand can always fix my reputation with just a few moves. “

He then looked at Boity as if asking her to make a choice at that moment.

” fine fine, I will learn to trust that you do not have feelings for her and that you are only doing this because we have no other choice. ” she said all of this while her hands were curled in to fists then hugged Dexter as if she had forgotten about the accusations she made just now , like always she blamed Ciara for everything that was happening to her.

‘ if you think you can have my man Ciara forget about it, I’ll make sure that no man will want you. Even that Liam guy you are claiming to be with will abandon you.’ she thought to herself as she was hugging Dexter hiding all her emotions and corrupted thoughts she was having.

Dexter pushed her a little, he looked like he was irked by her presence but soon soften his face.

” I’m hungry, is there anything I can eat?”

“of course I will go check with the house maid if there’s anything ready that you can have.”

She immediately spun her heels around and headed to the kitchen, while Dexter slouch on the couch while massaging his temples. Ever since the drama started, he found it hard to enjoy Boity’s presence and sometimes dreads coming home for he knew that he would replace her there. He wished he could dump her, the same way he did with Ciara almost a year ago, but right now is not the time to do that. He decided that he would cut all ties with Boity as soon as this current problem is resolved.

At the same time at the Jones group headquarters, Liam had returned to his desk as he continued with his work while Ciara was admiring the views outside through the floor to ceiling glass windows.

“You know I also need to get started with my work, I have about 2 scripts that I have to be done with before the end of this season and also write up a proposal for them to be turned in to a short drama series or movie..”

“do you need me to help you with that?. “

His question got Ciara cracking up with laughter as she thought how a business tycoon like Liam could help her with her scripts. Besides the copyright issue she just couldn’t picture him seriously coming up with a nice romantic story when he himself seemed to be failing at that department. She thought how could a serious man like him write about chocolates and strawberries when all he could relate to was only business, hence the reason he was this successful with his businesses.

” woooh, Liam wait a minute, are you telling me that your imagination can go that far. I don’t mean to be rude but babe, as sweet as you are, you are hardly ever romantic so how would you be able to help me with that.”

Liam’s expression did not change as he still focused on reading whatever it was that was showing on his computer screen. He then lifted up his head and looked at Ciara.

” Well if you didn’t know, we also have a media company with screenwriters and novelists, they can help you with your research if you want.”

“oooh!”

‘ so that’s what he meant’. Ciara thought to herself as she let out an awkward laugh while she buried her face in her palms.
