The Ghost Wife's Billion Dollar Tech Comeback

The Ghost Wife's Billion Dollar Tech Comeback

Huo Wuer
Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband's Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn't find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn't even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father's legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn's party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara's health and managing every detail of Caden's empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I'd drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause-if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I'd forgotten.

Amy was busy with her laptop when her phone suddenly chirped, she almost ignored cause of how engrossed she was but decided to take a look at the screen of the phone at a time when the call was almost coming to an end.

Seeing that the caller ID was her husband's secretary, Joan, she picked up the phone quickly as she wondered why she must have called him. She only saved Joan's number cause she's her husband's secretary and on days when she may not be able to reach her husband, Callan, at work, she would simply call Joan to pass the phone to him.

But this time was the first time that Joan would be placing a call across to her. She answered the call as she placed the phone gently on her ear, but the filthy sounds she heard left her flabbergasted and troubled.

She had to look at the screen of the phone again to be sure that it was Joan that pulled a call across, she placed the phone on her ear again and heard the same filthy sounds, they were hard and loud moans that depicts clearly that someone was having a heavy round of sex with her.

With the few times that Amy had spoken to Joan, she recognized her voice and she knew that the moans was definitely that of Joan. Did she mistakenly dialed her number during her intimate session with her boyfriend? Amy thought it could be a mistake so she wanted to hung the call up but what Amy heard next made her head almost fall off her neck.

She had to push the laptop aside just to be sure she heard the right thing, she listened clearly again and Joan repeated," fuck me, baby....Callan, go deeper, I'm loving it...oh my gosh!"

Amy's heart became troubled, very disturbed that she had to stand. That's not possible. She concluded and hung the call up. She trusted Callan with her life and loved him so dearly. Although she couldn't conceive for him yet, but they both showed eachother love and affection.

It can't be possible that Callan will be cheating on her. That's not just possible. She shook her head trying not to beleive that. Perhaps, Joan had just decided to suddenly turn herself into a villian in their marriage but sadly, that would never work.

Amy sat back and wanted to ignore what just happened but a gentle voice speaking inside of her wouldn't let her mind be at rest. In a world where anything is possible, what if Callan was actually cheating on her?

While she was in deep thought, her phone chirped briefly and seeing that it was a text message, she picked up her phone. But her heart raced when she realized that the sender of this message was none other than Joan.

She read the message telling her to come to a location, the location was an hotel and the exact room she was to come to was stated in that message.

What was going on? Amy's mind became even more troubled. She closed her laptop and walked quickly towards her wardrobe. She was in her home wear and since she intends going out now, she had to change into an outfit.

Once she was done, she walked outside of her room and wanted to tell her mother in law who was living in the same house with them that she had something urgent to attend to.

She walked to her room and knocked but couldn't find her there, where else could she be other than the kitchen? She took a quick step towards the kitchen and when she was almost at the door, she heard a loud laughter erupt from there. It was from her mother in law.

After a session of laughing, her mother in law said, unaware that Amy was outside, "that barren woman is such an idiot, I wonder what my son see in her in the first place? Just consuming my son's money and can't even produce a child! Never have I seen such a shameless woman."

She laughed again after saying that, it was obvious she was on a phone call with someone.

Amy didn't beleive that her mother in law could say this, tears almost fall off her eyes but she held it, she stormed inside the kitchen abruptly and her mother in law, Wilma, turned to her at once with a thumping heart.

Just thirty minutes ago, Amy had told Wilma that she would be busy inside until it was night, Wilma didn't expect for her to be here at this period. This was why she could speak freely and carelessly on phone.

Wilma wondered if Amy heard what she said, after a brief moment of intense silence between them, Wilma faked a cough and said, "Amy, erm...I thought you...Are you going out?"

"Mum, are you scared?" Amy asked with a smirk, as though she was not in pain.

"Scared...why?...why? Why would I?" She stammered.

"I'll be leaving, I have something important to do, ma," Amy said and turned, she intentionally left the woman in confusion. She wouldn't know if Amy heard what she was saying on phone or if she didn't.
