Walking back to the my office, I almost heaved a sigh of relief.
That was a close one. I did not need her to find anything she didn’t need to. I walked over to the drawer where the letter had been in and decided to change its position. I locked all the drawers and kept the keys in a safe position she would not think of going to especially because she did not know her way around the house.
Mira’s wandering just gave a reason to make sure she got out of the house a little bit more. I needed to allow her do her baking business and let her go out for deliveries. I also needed to let her know about the job opening I had set up for her at Navarro constructions.
I needed to do everything to get her away from snooping around often. She wasn’t ready to know the truth. Not yet. Not ever if I could help it.

The next day, as I walked up to the room, there was a guard walking closely behind , holding a Hers box.
I had my mother get her personal shopper to purchase a Birkin bag for Mira. This was going to be her consolation gift because I knew she would be pissed about having to go work in my office even if it wasn’t an everyday thing.
She was seated at the vanity mirror brushing through her luscious waves when I walked in. I stared at her bare back intently and swallowed. It had been a while since I touched her the best way I knew how to. I felt my cock stir just at the thought. But no, I needed to focus.
"Hello, wife." I said.
"What is it this ti?" She mumbled, getting on her feet.
With a fleek of my finger, I dismissed the guard and he left imdiately after placing the box on the bed.
"Is it another event I have to dress up for?" She asked in a bored tone.
"No it isn’t." I answered, dipping my hands in my pockets to hide my boner. She looked exceptionally gorgeous today. There was just sothing about how she looked that was turning on or maybe it was the fact that I hadn’t been laid in a while. The point is, I was trying to focus and she was distracting .
"Then what is it?" She sounded impatient.
I sighed. "Can you at least open it first?"
"No. Tell why you’re giving it to ." She said, folding her arms in defiance.
I exhaled, slightly exasperated by her drama. Mira could be a handful.
"It’s a gift for your first day of work."
"Work?" Her brows arched perfectly as she asked.
"Yes. Work." I concurred.
"I’m not sure I understand."
"You’ll be resuming at my office on Monday." I inford her, waiting for her vehent disagreent.
"Hell no!"
Yup. I knew her well enough.
She dropped the box and tried to walk away. I pulled her back to with one.
"You’re going to help my legal business get more social dia leverage. The social dia marketing team is going to need you for a few videos." I explained even when I felt like I didn’t have to. She was ant to do as she was told.
"I have no professional background in that so I’m not fit for the job."
"I don’t mind," I shrugged.
"I don’t want to work for you."
"Being my wife is a full ti job." I said.
"My point exactly." She retorted.
"You have to do it."
"Sebasti-"
My nose flared. "What did you just call ?"
"It was a slip of tongue."
I pulled her tightly. "Who the fuck is Sebastian?"
It better not be anyone she was still frolicking with because I would cut off his dick.
"Let go of !" She scread, fighting to get away from my hand but that only made hold on tighter.
"Jace let go of !" She said through gritted teeth. "You’re hurting !"
Her cry was what made let go just a little bit.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" She yelled, shoving slightly.
"You’re going to that office on Monday. Everything has been prepared for you." I said as I turned to leave.
"What about my business?"
"You don’t have to go there everyday." I said over my shoulder.
I walked away, fully aware that she was seething and hating even more. I could feel her hatred for increasing on a daily basis. But it had to be this way for our own good.

I t up with Tomas for drinks that night. We found ourselves in the VVIP lounge that was much quieter than the other parts of the club. I didn’t need the extra noise right now.
I downed the shots of vodka and shut my eyes as the alcohol kicked on.
When I opened my eyes, I saw him staring intently at .
"Is there sothing wrong?"
"Sothing is always wrong in our world, Tomas." I said with a slight chuckle.
"I know but this one seems deeper than work."
"I’m fine trust . I just need to unwind. Where is it?"
He knew what I was asking about.
"Are you sure?" He hesitantly asked
I tilted my head and gave him a glare. He for sure knew what that ant as he brought out the small package.
I opened the sachet, poured so of the powder and took a long sniff.
Afterwards, I just laid back and sighed in relief, letting the substance do its job.
It felt good.
"Get the strippers up here." I said to him.
He went and got them. I had one of my guards bring the briefcase with bundles of cash from the vehicle and as the won ca, I drank more, I inhaled more coke. I tossed dollar notes all over the place.
It’s safe to say, I had too much of a good ti, so much so, I blacked out and forgot where I was and what I was doing.
I trusted Tomas to get ho safely. And at the back of my mind, I knew I was going to wake up with a splitting headache the next morning.
