“Fred is married to Chloe and am just nobody to him I know we love each other but I want to be sure he is not toying with me so I need you to help me “ Cassy explained

Can you believe that immediately he saw fred coming into the living room this morning, he started whispering words that I couldn't comprehend into my ears and when I saw fred I got the hint “ cassy kept talking nonstop while the person at the other end just listen.
“Ding” a message alert sounded on cassy's phone

********
Ever since fred got to work, he has been extremely excited as the agency was doing very fine. They were a lot of request from models on his desk waiting for approval.
But firstly he sat down then wrote a new contract rule after which he called ray to come to his office .
“Hey boss you sent for me “ ray said immediately he entered fred's office
“What's up with the boss calling just call me my name” fred said not comfortable with ray Calling him boss .
“Thanks “ ray said sitting
“For what “ fred asked
“For making me a supervisor In this agency “ray replied
“Look ray you are very talented and making you a supervisor in this agency is for the agency's good “fred replied .
“So I called you to go through this new contract rule just check if there is any loopholes that the enemies can pass through to get at me “ fred explain
Ray took the paper. As he read the rules he was nodding his head in satisfaction
“You did really well “ he complimented
“With this new rule the agency is safe and as for the company's share I have 60% and the remaining 40% anyone can buy so that even if the 40% is put up for sale, it won't affect my stand in the agency “ fred explained.
“That's nice can I leave now “ ray asked as he had a lot of works to supervise
“Of course “ fred said
After ray left fred kept opening the file of the models and kept aside anyone that caught his attention .
“Ding” the wall alarm at the agency blared signifying 6:00 everyone wrapped up their work for the day. Fred and ray walked to the agency's parking garage.
“Just drop me at a close by hotel but don't forget I will be home very early tomorrow morning so I can get ready for work “ ray said
“Thank you for accepting “ fred said as both entered the car with fred driving .
Fred had earlier begged ray to lodge at an hotel for the night as he wanted to be alone with cassy but ray bluntly refused so he was super excited that ray finally agreed .
After dropping ray outside a close hotel he gave him money for the lodging and meal
“ this money is quite much “ ray said
“It's just a thank you from me for accepting to spend the night at an hotel so cassy and I will be left alone” fred said
“Oh I think I should be lodging everyday so I can get more money from you then “ ray said smiling
“You are not serious “fred laughed .
Fred soon drove off while ray strolled inside the hotel
Fred did a quick shopping before heading home and by the time he came home, cassy was sitting in the living room.
“Where is ray “ cassy asked immediately fred came in alone
“I asked him to leave “ fred replied
“How could you be so ungrateful is it because of what happened this morning before you both left for work “ Cassy asked
“Kind of “ fred replied locking the door
“Fred we planned it not even planned I literally forced him “ cassy said unhappy
“Hey sweetie did you really believed that I asked him to leave? Well I didn't he is currently enjoying himself In his hotel lodge so we can have the night together “ fred said handing a small bag to cassy
“Change into what's inside let me freshen up “ fred said walking to the dining. He kept a bag on the dining table before walking to his room .
“A message poop up on cassy screen
“Just wait for a few more minutes the truth will soon be sent to you “
“What sort of message is this and what truth will soon be sent to me “ cassy murmured as she has been receiving this exact message since six
“your phone should be with you if you are curious to know the truth “ another message came in.
