The Vengeful Wife

Part 2: Research

He walked into the bathroom and closed the door behind him. Angela took this as an opportunity and got up from her side of the bed. On his side of the dresser lay his cellphone. Luckily she was aware of his passcode, (not that he knew that) she's never felt the need to check through his things before, she's never for a second mistrusted him. She checked to see who called him last night and it said Jim. Thank God, Jim was his boss. For a split second she felt relieved, as if she had been overreacting, but why did he lie about the time he came home? There we're still parts not adding up.

"Babe you coming or what?" Antwan called from the steaming shower

"Give me a second" she replied. She stopped and thought about it for a second. Is she being dramatic? Would Antwan ever hurt her? After everything they've been through there's no way he would be with another woman.
How did it come down to this, scrolling through his call list? This was out of control, who is she doctor foster? Then again her suspicions did turn out to be even more than expected & this revelation made Angela antsy. She typed Jims name into the contact search and saw that two Jims popped up. One thing Angela knew was his coworkers, he knows only one Jim. She checked the number of one of them and discovered it had a different area code
& in that moment she knew, lies have been told.

"You're still in the bed" Antwan said opening the door and looking over at her. She had already quickly placed the phone back before he had a chance to see her

"Alright alright" she said jumping up out of the bed "I'm coming now"

Laughing & smiling while hiding that worrisome feeling that deepened inside her gave her anxiety as she sat across him eating breakfast. Today they both had work. Angela was a divorce lawyer & Antwan was the top accountant at his firm. After dedicating himself to numbers he became Incredibly talented and made a career out of it. While they say she received a text from her mother congratulating her on her promotion at work.

"That was Annie, they want me to come in early" she lied

"That's fine, I was going to head in early anyways"

"Oh an early morning and a late night? You really are dedicated" Angela said kissing him on the cheek

"gotta pay the bills somehow" he replied

"Hey Ang, did you hear about the big news?"

"Nope" she said as they quickly walked down the halls of the firm

"Terry is being replaced by Agatha isn't that crazy? After everything Terry did for her she still tried to swipe his job"

"Uh huh" Angela replied

"I'm going to miss Terry, he's quit now because he believes this is all injustice and he can find a firm to appreciate him"

"Oh"

"He's going to Carlton's firm of all firms isn't that insane!"

"Yup"

"Are you even listening to me?" Her secretary Annie said

"Mm hmm"

"Terry died in your office hanging from a rope and he says you killed him police are awaiting you" Annie said

Angela paused in her step and turned to Annie.

"I am listening Annie, that didn't even make sense how can a dead person claim I murdered them? Nice try though" Angela replied

"Ok so you are listening, what's your problem then? You don't seem like yourself is everything ok? Did you not have a good anniversary" Annie asked concerned
