Chapter 106
Trixie didn't expect Frank to say those words, so she thought it was just a joke.
"Director Frank, are you kidding?"
Frank shook his head and said in a serious tone, "I'm not kidding. Trixie, I am serious."
For an instant, Trixie lost her appetite to continue eating. She really didn't know what's wrong with Frank that day. He just got married. How could he say such a thing to his husband?
"Director Frank, this kind of thing is not funny. Please don't make a joke about marriage, okay? Although there are some misunderstandings between me and my husband, I am trying my best to fix our problem as soon as possible. I still love him, so I don't want to end our marriage in just a small thing or letting myself get entangled with other men without a divorce."
"Do you really think your husband is a good partner?"
Frank instantly triggered Trixie. She suddenly stood up, frowned, and stared at him with deep eyes.
"Director Frank, I am very grateful to you for helping me to get the list, but please don't insult my husband. Although he is not perfect in some things, I don't want someone to insult him before I find out the truth."
Trixie's insistence made Frank suddenly laugh. His eyes were full of mockery.
"Trixie, you are simple and innocent. Do you really think that everything will be okay without his name on the membership list?"
Frank continued talking, "Maybe he is a good husband in front of you and a good father in front of your child, but do you know what he is like outside? Trixie, wake up! Even if you don't believe me, it doesn't matter. You can check it to yourself and see what kind of person your husband is."
Frank's words gradually upset Trixie's heart. But she really didn't want to admit it in front of a stranger, which was like uncovering the scar for others to see.
"Thank you for your kindness, Director Frank, but Daryl is my husband, and I still choose to believe him."
After she said those words, Trixie got up with the bag and left directly. She went to the front desk to pay the bill and drove away.
On the road, Trixie remembered what happened in the restaurant with Director Frank, and she got annoyed. Minutes after, her anxious mood gradually calmed down.
She called Daryl.
"Honey, why did you call? Did something happen?"
"Are you in the company now? I wanted to see you."
"I just sent Kinsley to the piano class. All right, let's meet at night. Great timing, I miss you, honey.
"Okay good, I miss you too."
After a long while, Trixie arrived at Daryl's Company. Trixie parked the car.
While she was walking inside the company near at entrance, Trixie saw Erin who had just come down from the elevator.
Erin glanced and greeted her with a smile. "Mrs. Blayden."
Trixie also responded to her. Trixie looked at her, and when she was walking away, she laughed silently. It's strange because Erin didn't behave like this for the past few days. Trixie didn't expect that Erin could perform two sides with three knives so incisively and vividly.
After that happened, Trixie rode into an elevator to go to Daryl.
Trixie arrived on time for Daryl's meeting, so she had to sit inside Frank's office and wait.
Sitting on the sofa, Trixie swept around the office because she was bored. Trixie thought about Erin that although she was not good as an angel, she kept the office behind the desk in good order.
Trixie had finished cleaning. The office equipment was not much different from the usual ones, except for the small safe under the bookcase had been removed. The size of the office was right, Daryl didn't need to get a small safe to occupy space there, so it was understandable to remove it.
According to what William said just now, the meeting may take about an hour. Trixie was bored by just looking at her watch. It's only been ten minutes.
She simply turned-on Daryl's computer and planned to play games. She couldn't find the mouse so, she was looking everywhere. She accidentally saw a half-open drawer and saw something inside that attracted Trixie's attention.
She quickly opened the drawer, and inside of it, was an impressively mask.
Trixie recognized that the mask was exactly the same as Allison. The mask was a match where she found in the picture. Looking at the mask, Trixie stayed where she was for a long time, and her brain went blank.
The mask completely dispelled Trixie's last belief in Daryl. The wall of trust she worked so hard suddenly collapsed. Daryl really joined the club and has been covering up this fact with lies?! When Trixie found out the truth, she couldn't accept it to herself. She would rather believe that Daryl cheated than that he joined the club.
The thought that he might have slept with an unknown person who was also a married woman made Trixie sick. Seeing this mask, she couldn't help thinking about the picture, so she was furious.
Trixie wanted to break the mask, but this was the only piece of evidence that made her not do it. That was not the right time to destroy the mask. She would ask Daryl face to face about that.
After waiting for Daryl to finish the meeting for 40 minutes, Trixie felt extremely miserable. She even wanted to run to the conference room with a mask. She wanted to ask Daryl in front of everyone. But she abruptly refrained from the idea.
Now the source of the mask had not been determined, so she couldn't be too decisive. She always listened to how the parties explain it.
Daryl came back from the meeting, and Trixie was still sitting in front of the computer. She didn't speak, and her eyes kept looking at the computer screen.
Daryl seemed to realize that her mood was not good.
Walking to her side, he just wanted to ask her if there was something, but suddenly he saw the mask on the table. Daryl's face changed in an instant.
He pretended to be casual, put his hand on Trixie's shoulder with a smile, and asked gently, "Honey, what shall we eat later?"
Trixie looked up at him, stretched out her hand, and pushed the mask in front of him. It seemed that she didn't hear what he said at all. "What is this?"
Trixie stared straight into Daryl's eyes. He seemed a little nervous and kept licking his lips. "Isn't it just a mask? Sandro left it with me yesterday. He hasn't taken it back yet."This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
"Do you know what this mask means? Did he forget to left here, or this mask is yours?!"
Trixie no longer wanted to beat around the bush with Daryl. She was tired of listening to his excuses, so it was better to be tough, maybe she could hear something different.
Perhaps Trixie's tone was too firm, which made Daryl lost his temper.
He threw the mask directly into the trash can. "How do I know what this thing means? I said that Sandro left it here. What's the point of lying to you! Can you stop being suspicious when you see anything? I told you that I didn't cheat and have a mistress. How many times do I have to say it before you believe it?"
Trixie sneered at once. "Well, isn't Sandro still off work? I'm going to find him now."
After she said those words, Trixie ignored Daryl's obstruction and went straight out of the office.. She wanted to see how Daryl would explain this without collusion in advance.
