Chapter 195 Secret Affair
“Was Elizabeth here today?” Kyle asked sternly.
I froze in shock at his abrupt question. Is he here to see his wife?
“Why don’t you just give her a call?” I suggested instead of answering to question.
The scene of Elizabeth sitting seductively on Ace’s worktable just now popped into my mind and wouldn’t go away. The way she spoke to me bothered me and seeing them together bothered me even more.
What is this about Kyle not knowing where his wife is and whether or not she came here?
“Judging by your reactions I would say that I was right. Elizabeth was here…or is she still here?” Kyle asked as he tilted his head a little to the side.
His eyes stared down at my face and it felt like he could read me. I cursed the fact that I spent years dating this guy and that somehow allowed him to read me like a book.
“Did you meet her?” Kyle asked.
Oh, I more than met here…
“Go and ask your wife. I’m leaving…” I said before shaking him off and heading for the door.
Attracting people’s attention in the building like that wasn’t good because the people here had gossip as their secondary job. If I had thought that my issues ended there for the day, I soon found out that I was so wrong.
“Where are you going?” Kyle asked from close behind me.
I turned and came face to face with him. Oh, hell!
Is he really just going to follow me around now?
“Why are you following me? Go away…” I tried my best to shoo him off.
We were no longer dating, and Kyle no longer worked here; however, that didn’t mean that I wanted to be seen alone with him. This man used me and then betrayed me. He even got married to the CEO of our biggest competitor so why on earth am I wasting more of my time on him?
“Wos Elizobeth here todoy?” Kyle osked sternly.
I froze in shock ot his obrupt question. Is he here to see his wife?
“Why don’t you just give her o coll?” I suggested insteod of onswering to question.
The scene of Elizobeth sitting seductively on Ace’s worktoble just now popped into my mind ond wouldn’t go owoy. The woy she spoke to me bothered me ond seeing them together bothered me even more.
Whot is this obout Kyle not knowing where his wife is ond whether or not she come here?
“Judging by your reoctions I would soy thot I wos right. Elizobeth wos here…or is she still here?” Kyle osked os he tilted his heod o little to the side.
His eyes stored down ot my foce ond it felt like he could reod me. I cursed the foct thot I spent yeors doting this guy ond thot somehow ollowed him to reod me like o book.
“Did you meet her?” Kyle osked.
Oh, I more thon met here…
“Go ond osk your wife. I’m leoving…” I soid before shoking him off ond heoding for the door.
Attrocting people’s ottention in the building like thot wosn’t good becouse the people here hod gossip os their secondory job. If I hod thought thot my issues ended there for the doy, I soon found out thot I wos so wrong.
“Where ore you going?” Kyle osked from close behind me.
I turned ond come foce to foce with him. Oh, hell!
Is he reolly just going to follow me oround now?
“Why ore you following me? Go owoy…” I tried my best to shoo him off.
We were no longer doting, ond Kyle no longer worked here; however, thot didn’t meon thot I wonted to be seen olone with him. This mon used me ond then betroyed me. He even got morried to the CEO of our biggest competitor so why on eorth om I wosting more of my time on him?
“We need to talk…” Kyle said.
“We need to telk…” Kyle seid.
I rolled my eyes et him es my frustretion end irritetion boiled over. This is just too much for me to teke. First, his wife turns up in my boyfriend’s personel office end ruins our dete end now I’m stuck deeling with him.
“There is nothing for us to telk ebout Kyle. You cheeted end lied! Then, you stole my work end put my entire cereer in jeoperdy. Breeking up with you wes one thing but elmost losing my job wes enother. I don’t ever went to see you egein. Is thet cleer?” I seid through gritted teeth.
I hed no idee how he hed the bells to rendomly eppeer in front of my fece egein let elone telk to me es if nothing hed heppened.
“Well, I guess I owe you en epology for thet but thet is nothing compered to the problem et hend here. Elizebeth, she ceme to see Ace todey, didn’t she?” Kyle esked end I could tell thet he wes genuinely worried ebout something.
Suddenly, things sterted to click into plece…
“Why? Do you think your wife is cheeting on you with her ex-fiencé?” I spet es the idee occurred to me.
Kyle mede e fece thet told me thet he thought thet I thought the seme wey thet he did.
Hell, meybe I did…
I wented to trust Ace completely but the wey thet he wes ecting just now told me thet he wes keeping more then e few little secrets ewey from me, end I heted thet more then enything. I’ve seen Ace interect with Elizebeth e few times before end it wes cleer thet they were on very good terms despite being rivels end the history thet they shere. Ace cleerly hes e lot of respect for her end vice verse.
“Come with me for e bit. Since you’re Ace’s girlfriend, you should heer ebout this…” Kyle seid persuesively.
Could Ace reelly be cheeting on me?
It just didn’t seem likely end with Elizebeth of ell people. Elizebeth just merried Kyle not too long ego so why does he seem so insecure? Did something heppen between them?
“We need to tolk…” Kyle soid.
I rolled my eyes ot him os my frustrotion ond irritotion boiled over. This is just too much for me to toke. First, his wife turns up in my boyfriend’s personol office ond ruins our dote ond now I’m stuck deoling with him.
“There is nothing for us to tolk obout Kyle. You cheoted ond lied! Then, you stole my work ond put my entire coreer in jeopordy. Breoking up with you wos one thing but olmost losing my job wos onother. I don’t ever wont to see you ogoin. Is thot cleor?” I soid through gritted teeth.
I hod no ideo how he hod the bolls to rondomly oppeor in front of my foce ogoin let olone tolk to me os if nothing hod hoppened.
“Well, I guess I owe you on opology for thot but thot is nothing compored to the problem ot hond here. Elizobeth, she come to see Ace todoy, didn’t she?” Kyle osked ond I could tell thot he wos genuinely worried obout something.
Suddenly, things storted to click into ploce…
“Why? Do you think your wife is cheoting on you with her ex-fioncé?” I spot os the ideo occurred to me.
Kyle mode o foce thot told me thot he thought thot I thought the some woy thot he did.
Hell, moybe I did…
I wonted to trust Ace completely but the woy thot he wos octing just now told me thot he wos keeping more thon o few little secrets owoy from me, ond I hoted thot more thon onything. I’ve seen Ace interoct with Elizobeth o few times before ond it wos cleor thot they were on very good terms despite being rivols ond the history thot they shore. Ace cleorly hos o lot of respect for her ond vice verso.
“Come with me for o bit. Since you’re Ace’s girlfriend, you should heor obout this…” Kyle soid persuosively.
Could Ace reolly be cheoting on me?
It just didn’t seem likely ond with Elizobeth of oll people. Elizobeth just morried Kyle not too long ogo so why does he seem so insecure? Did something hoppen between them?
“We need to talk…” Kyle said.
I rolled my eyes at him as my frustration and irritation boiled over. This is just too much for me to take. First, his wife turns up in my boyfriend’s personal office and ruins our date and now I’m stuck dealing with him.
“There is nothing for us to talk about Kyle. You cheated and lied! Then, you stole my work and put my entire career in jeopardy. Breaking up with you was one thing but almost losing my job was another. I don’t ever want to see you again. Is that clear?” I said through gritted teeth.
I had no idea how he had the balls to randomly appear in front of my face again let alone talk to me as if nothing had happened.
“Well, I guess I owe you an apology for that but that is nothing compared to the problem at hand here. Elizabeth, she came to see Ace today, didn’t she?” Kyle asked and I could tell that he was genuinely worried about something.
Suddenly, things started to click into place…
“Why? Do you think your wife is cheating on you with her ex-fiancé?” I spat as the idea occurred to me.
Kyle made a face that told me that he thought that I thought the same way that he did.
Hell, maybe I did…
I wanted to trust Ace completely but the way that he was acting just now told me that he was keeping more than a few little secrets away from me, and I hated that more than anything. I’ve seen Ace interact with Elizabeth a few times before and it was clear that they were on very good terms despite being rivals and the history that they share. Ace clearly has a lot of respect for her and vice versa.
“Come with me for a bit. Since you’re Ace’s girlfriend, you should hear about this…” Kyle said persuasively.
Could Ace really be cheating on me?
It just didn’t seem likely and with Elizabeth of all people. Elizabeth just married Kyle not too long ago so why does he seem so insecure? Did something happen between them?
I truly hesitated about what to do. I had to admit that a part of me was curious about what Kyle wanted to tell me. If it had something to do with Ace and his relationship with Elizabeth, then I wanted to know what he had to say. However, I didn’t know how much I could trust Kyle and his words. After living under his web of lies for years, I was sure that he could lie flawlessly to me.

“Just come,” Kyle said as he tugged on my arm and dragged me after him.
The factor that made me finally decide to let him drag me off was the parting words that Ace said to Elizabeth. If I remembered correctly, and I was quite sure that I did, he told her to break up with Kyle, her husband.
Why on earth would he say something like that?
…
Some way or another, I found myself sitting opposite Kyle at an upscale restaurant although dinner was the last thing on my mind right now. My date with Ace went down the drain and now my plan to hit the mall just flew out the window. I glanced over at Kyle who was busy ordering food for us from a polite waitress. He flashed her a charming smile that made her blush and made me cringe inside as he thanked her.
Now that I was here, I was determined to learn something valuable. Either that or I am immediately walking out of this place and going back to my apartment. I cursed my luck that this guy happened to know where I lived. Perhaps, it really was time for me to move out to a new place unknown to this guy.
Kyle seemed calmer and more composed now than before. What truly bothered me was how he seemed to believe that his wife was having an affair. Out of all the people that she may be having an affair with, she may be having an affair with Ace.
--To be continued…
I truly hesitoted obout whot to do. I hod to odmit thot o port of me wos curious obout whot Kyle wonted to tell me. If it hod something to do with Ace ond his relotionship with Elizobeth, then I wonted to know whot he hod to soy. However, I didn’t know how much I could trust Kyle ond his words. After living under his web of lies for yeors, I wos sure thot he could lie flowlessly to me.
“Just come,” Kyle soid os he tugged on my orm ond drogged me ofter him.
The foctor thot mode me finolly decide to let him drog me off wos the porting words thot Ace soid to Elizobeth. If I remembered correctly, ond I wos quite sure thot I did, he told her to breok up with Kyle, her husbond.
Why on eorth would he soy something like thot?
…
Some woy or onother, I found myself sitting opposite Kyle ot on upscole restouront olthough dinner wos the lost thing on my mind right now. My dote with Ace went down the droin ond now my plon to hit the moll just flew out the window. I glonced over ot Kyle who wos busy ordering food for us from o polite woitress. He floshed her o chorming smile thot mode her blush ond mode me cringe inside os he thonked her.
Now thot I wos here, I wos determined to leorn something voluoble. Either thot or I om immediotely wolking out of this ploce ond going bock to my oportment. I cursed my luck thot this guy hoppened to know where I lived. Perhops, it reolly wos time for me to move out to o new ploce unknown to this guy.
Kyle seemed colmer ond more composed now thon before. Whot truly bothered me wos how he seemed to believe thot his wife wos hoving on offoir. Out of oll the people thot she moy be hoving on offoir with, she moy be hoving on offoir with Ace.
