Regret at leasure

1101 Words
There was a loud bang in the office. The secretaries were afraid to go into the verbally heated office of their boss Mr Paul Myers, he was not in a happy mood. No, definitely not as he was there with three lawyers. His marriage to Christal Smith has gone sour or at least it hit a sour note in the very first week. This was his first great big hiccup in the new marriage. Secretaries were people too, they were all curious about what was happening in there boss's office. "Sir, I have already explained the significance of your marriage. I told you, you needed to marry so that you can access your inheritance. Here, can you see this phrase says you cannot sign any documents without your wife's signature. You signed there sir. Here is your signature. By signing you agreed to the requirements for your inheritance." That was the last straw for Paul, he was not amused by these three moronic lawyers telling him he was not going to be able to access money he needed to keep his business going. "Where is your wife, Sir? We will have to find her as this is a serious problem, without her you cannot have access to your trustfund." the i***t James Devan said trying to dodge a ledger that came flying past his ear. His client was a testy person but today he was angry and even violent. "Bloody h... ," he screamed. He hated swearing and sometimes he said swear words that sounded strange as he abbreviated the words. Paul did not take responsibility for his actions as he chased the three numbsculls out of his office. The lavish office of leather and teak furniture was now a cold reminder for him of his own stupidity. He should have been nice to his new wife for the sake of his money. He just saw a meek woman he could mould and suppress with his dominant personality. Where could she have gone. What has happened to the miss. Paul did not have the patience to try to find her himself. This incident showed him once again that woman where complex characters. Where had she gone anyway. He paged his secretary by pressing a button on his office dashboard. "Lily, can you contact Mr Jordan the detective on our recliner. Tell him to come directly to my office. Yes, tell him to drop all of his other cases. I need him to get here as soon as possible." Paul was going to use his best business detective to find his wife. "Where could she have gone...this is very irritating for me..." Paul explained the whole situation to Dain Jordan. Dain had to hide a smile when he heard the full story. Dain was rooting for his new wife, at least someone has showed Mr Paul Myers were to get off. "Atta girl," he thought to himself. He dared not show his glee to Paul Myers as he needed this job. His wife has just had their first baby and this job was there only income at the moment. The moment Dain Jordan started his investigation he was quite stunned at this girls history. Christal Smith was actually the daughter of one of the richest businessmen in the country. Or rather a late businessmen as he had died at the end of last year. Christals mother was a famous actress who forced her daughter to use her maiden name. The awful woman did not want Christal to have the same name as hers instead she made Christal use her maiden name so that no one knew she had a child that grown up. Dain Johnson brought a large file to his boss's office the next morning. He was stunned at learning all he has about his bosses wife. When he placed the folder on the table Paul Myers was not impressed. "What's that you have there? Please don't tell me she had prison records or something like that." Paul hoped he was going to get to the bottom of this story. What Dain Johnson had to tell his boss was a story that even stunned him. "Sir, she is richer than even you are. She is an heiress, she has quite a formidable fortune to her name. Her mother is a famous lady her name is Latchme Lehaney." All the information was in the folders infront of him but Paul Myers was not impressed with his missing wife. At least he did not touch her, for all he knew she was probably a spy for her fathers company. Her father was a long term rival before he had died. Alexander Lehaney was as tough as nails. He razed that hellion by himself. When the office gossipers started spreading the rumors everyone was shut up soon enough. Paul Myers was informed about the current rumors going around, he rounded everyone up as he threatened them all with dismissals if he heard another whisper about this current wedding gone wrong situation. Paul Myers was a busy man but on this day he was hunting for his wife. Everyone was busy in the office when one of the secretaries said she had seen a new post that showed something about a messy relationship. When the rest of the office went to that site on there phones they recognized Christal. She has a social media platform now. Very soon everyone in the office was laughing at the antics of there new star online "Christal " she had a picture of her boss and she was using darts to throw at his head. After shooting the arrows she kissed his pocked head after pulling the darts from his image. The holes in the picture was all formed neatly on one section in the middle of his forehead. The office gossipers now had a field day with this additional information they received from the website. Christal was talking to the audience as if the people out there were all her friends but in reality they were strangers. The people were all interested in what Christal had to say. Christal was a brocken doll, her dreams where in shreds and now she was telling everyone how she felt. This was all done on social media. Paul Myers walked past a group of huddled secretaries and as he was about to shout them apart he saw the program on one of there phones. Paul Myers opened his phone and accessed Christals web site, it was called 'Cheating Marriage vows'. If he was angry before now this toppled everything else. .
