Ben's pov
I lied.I only went back into the house to adjust my rapidly growing bulge.I thought I had seen everything when you showed up at my office but this is just another level entirely.
How am I supposed to concentrate since my company is hosting this party.I thought to myself.
Ugh...
I can't even release some tension, since we're running late and I still need to pick up my tux and where did she get that gown!No hot blooded man will be able to concentrate on anything with her wearing that!I pray for strength not to jump her,I can't act like I did at the office things are different now.
After splashing water on my face,I walked out of our room,well my room now since she decided to move out last night and she was acting like I wronged her.
The nerve!
She wasn't sure the one who had to listen to his wife call out another man's name as soon as they finished having sex.I love Jane but if she's in love with another man, I just think it better to keep away.
Clearing my throat.Sorry for keeping you waiting...Damn!she looks edible.
She got into the car as I unlocked it without replying and slamming the door close after.Only God knows what the problem is now.She jerked on her seatbelt and folded her arms underneath her bosom and looking straight ahead.I guess she's in a mood today.I pity the poor soul that will piss her off today,I just hope she won't overreact have got potential investors coming for the party.
I changed into my tux at my tailor's place but not before asking Jane to join me which she blantly refused by snidely telling me she would rather stay in the car.She was really starting to piss me off, what the hell is wrong with her.No one talks to me like that,I love her but she's pushing it.
I got back into the car and we headed for the party.After handing the keys to the valet,we walked on the red carpet with flash light going off and me giving my business smile for the camera with Jane with an aloof look on her face.As soon as we got into the company's hall,Jane jerked away from me.
Why didn't you tell me it was something this elaborate!She snapped at me.Did you want me to make a fool out of myself,is that why you didn't tell me huh?
What are you talking about Jane?I told you it was an office function, did I not?
Really,all those reporters are just out there for an office function!..
It's nothing out of the ordinary Jane! and will you keep your voice down, you're starting to attract attention.I whispered hastily.
Whatever Ben! When it time to go home,I'll be by the bar.She strutted towards the bar.Jane is pissing me off big time,of all days she decided to act up today.What the hell is her problem?
Hey man?Just met your wife at the bar and she looked like an angry sexy goddess,what did you do Ben? Michael asked sipping on whatever he had in his glass.
Sighing
I don't know Mike, she's been acting off since last night,I replied.She even moved into the guest room too.
Wow,and did you ask her what the problem was? Mike asked looking amused.
It's not funny Mike,she didn't give the chance to say anything!
Ok man,just calm and take this.He passed his drink to me.I gulped it down and thanked him.I needed the drink.
Ben,you need to ask her what up and about that Gideon you keep ranting to me about but you will have to do that later cause Mr Gupta is here and ready to talk business.
Really?
Yea,man.There he is.Mike pointed at Mr Gupta.
I see him,thanks mike.Please when you see Maddie tell her to go talk to Mrs James about the business preposition she offered.
Will do.
I headed towards him greeting people on the way and exchanged pleasantries when I got to him and we talked business for a while and him promising to come to my office to discuss further in details.Everything was going smoothly until we heard the noises coming from the direction of the bar.
Sighing, Really Jane! Excuse Mr Gupta,I'll be right back.
No problem,with that he turned to face his longtime business partner.
I got to the bar to see Jane looking bored and just staring at Mrs James who was screaming her heads off with what looked like spilled drink on her pink dress while Maddie was frantically using her handkerchief to dab at the stain and Michael looking like he was trying not to laugh.
What did you do this time Jane!I turned to face my wife.
Dude, your wife---
Michael stay out of this please.I cut him short.
Jane, how could you spill your drink on Mrs James?
You - You think I-I-I did this?Jane asked looking hurt.
Stop lying Jane, you've a penchant for causing trouble,who else could have done it!I snapped getting irritated by the innocent look she was wearing.
Wow,Fuck you Ben.I'm out of here.She replied hoarsely before grabbing her purse.
And for your information Ben,I don't drink,with that she walked out of the hall.
Shit,I fucked up.
You're an asshole man,Mike said from somewhere beside me.
Oh Mr Franklin,was that your wife?She didn't spill the drink on me, your silly secretary did!You own her an apology.
You think I don't know that now!I snapped at her not caring if she was a client.
I need a drink,I muttered to myself.
No man,you need to go after your wife, Michael said probably hearing what I said.
I ran out,hoping to catch up with her but she was no where in sight,she probably took a taxi or something.
I went back into the hall, ready to drink because honestly I needed alcohol courage to face my wife...
I love Jane but she scares me sometimes.I headed towards the bar and was on my fourth shot, when I turned to see Michael settling beside me and ordering a drink while calling me coward...
Note: please read "agony" before "faults".
