Billionaire's Ghost Wife

It was Sunday morning, if it would be past days, he would be working on his PC, and his wife would be serving him coffee and while serving him his coffee, she would say that she had prepared his jogging dress and then after taking his coffee, he would get change.

But now, everything was different, he had awoken earlier than before because he didn't sleep last night, he even messaged his assistant that today wouldn't be a holiday, all the employees would have to come to the office no matter what. Firstly, it was because Naksh told him that he would call a drawing artist and second he wanted to distract himself from this thought about his wife by working in the office and for that he cancelled the holiday of all his employees.

He was now going out for jogging when the maid interrupted him,

“ Sir, what should I make in breakfast? ” she asked, it reminded him of her wife who never asked him what he wanted to eat but knew all his favorite dishes, he loved the food made by her, however, he never told her that her hands had magic in it. How badly he wanted to tell her now, but unfortunately, she wasn't there to listen it,

“ Sir, sir.. I'm talking to you.. ”

The maid waved her hands in front of his eyes, only then he came back to his sense.

“ Hah.. Make whatever you want, ”

he said with darkened face and turned to leave, however, the maid again interrupted him,

“ Sir.. ”

“ Now what?? ”

he asked in a cold voice because her presence was reminding him the disappearance of his wife.

“ Sir, I need money to buy the groceries.. ” she said hesitantly while he bit his lips.

“ Money.. ”

He murmured as he suddenly realized that his wife never asked money from him. He wiped the drops of sweat from his forehead, and then rubbed the place between his brows.

She lived two years here, but she never asked anything from him, not even a single coin. He too never spent his money on buying anything for her or for this home except the apartment. Then how did she manage everything for two years? How was she buying groceries and other stuffs? Why didn't she ask him to give her money?

“ Take this card and buy whatever you want, ”

he said while throwing a card to her, the maid frowned after seeing a master card, she was only a maid, not his wife, why this man was giving her a master card only to buy some groceries, little did she know that this man was doing this out of his guilt.

She then turned to leave, but he called her,

“ You.. What's your name? ”

he asked, it would be much better if he would have asked this from his wife, but what's done was already done, he couldn't do anything except for regretting.

“ Bela.. ” she replied

“ How did you get your job? I mean how did she know you and offer you the job? ” he asked with meaningful gaze while she replied,

“ I had given advertisements in the news paper that I want the job of care taker and then I received a call, she said that I'm hired, ”

“ Oh, you can go now.. ” he said while narrowing his eye.

‘ What the fuck is going on? She was illiterate, she couldn't read the newspaper, how did she read that advertisement, and that letter.. How could she write so well, especially Hindi, and most importantly, she never asked me money then how was she managing everything? Could it be that she was working somewhere? Oh God!! How could I be so ignorant, I should have asked about her needs, I forced her to work in a strange city, wait a second, how could she work somewhere, She didn't have any qualifications, who would give her work? Don't tell me that.. She was working irrelevant jobs, or she was having an affair with someone? Could it be that she ran away with her lover? Oh God, what am I thinking, ’

He cursed himself while pulling his hair in anger, to release his anger he walked outside.

As soon as he started running, his guards started following him, however, he stopped them as he wanted to be alone. After running for about a kilometre, his gaze fell on a tea seller where few men were gathered,

‘ If she was working somewhere or meeting with someone, the neighbors must have seen her anytime, ’

he thought as he walked up to the tea seller to get some information from the customers sitting there. He then took out his handkerchief and brushed the bench carefully before sitting there, the men sitting there laughed inside after seeing his action and then busied themselves in their routine gossips.

After ordering his tea, he faced to a man and said,

“ Do you live near apartment no 36? ” he asked casually.

“ No, I live four apartment away from that, this brother live near that apartment, ” he replied while pointing at another man. That man waved his hand to him while he smiled,

“ Bro, have you seen the lady who lived in Apartment no 36? ”

“ Are you talking about that victim, do you know her? ”

he asked with curiosity

“ Victim? What do you mean by victim? ” Krish asked with frowned eyes.

“ Don't you know that? Five days ago, few robbers sneaked into her apartment with the intention of robbery and stabbed that woman, she was hurt so badly, tsk tsk, it was terrible” he said with serious tone while Krish became silent for few seconds, meanwhile, the man continued.

“ But, that woman was so mysterious, no one had ever seen her outside, she never come out from her home, no one knows whether she was married or single, but we have seen a car always being parked there on Sunday, God knows it was her husband's car or his bf's, but that woman was really unfortunate if she was married, I mean who does leave his young wife alone in this type of area? You say, will you ever leave your wife alone like this, will you? ” the man turned angry face while Krish was looking blankly at the man, he replied with hoarse voice, “ N.. never, what happened to her then? I mean where did she go? ”

“ She came back after three days, she must be in her apartment, who cares, she doesn't talk to anyone so nobody talks to her, you know naah, lady ego, if she doesn't talk to neighbors then the ladies would never gonna talk to her, and if we men dare to talk to her then be ready for a civil war, haha.. By the way you are looking new here, young man, ”

“ Oh yeah, I.. I'm new here, I need to go, I have work to handle, ” he said with indifferent voice and bid his farewell to the men.
