The CEO's Return (Tracy and Alex) novel Chapter 43

Alex

After Tracy left I played with the kids, they kept asking for their mother and why she left home without taking them, my ears almost fell off because they ask of their mother twice every ten minutes.

I got so tired at some point that I wanted to call her, fortunately, she called then telling me she would be home soon, I told the kids but that didn't stop them from asking me where she is.

I started feeling uncomfortable at some point, I called Tracy's number, it kept ringing but she didn't pick, I tried her number a few more times but she didn't pick.

I wanted to think she didn't hear her phone ringing or her phone was on silent, but then I just couldn't, I had a strange feeling that there is more to it and I'm hoping nothing wrong happened.

I was about to try Tracy's number again when James call came in

"Hey man, are you at home?"

"Yeah."

"I'm on my way to your place, I'm about to turn into the estate, I'll send you a picture now and I want you to look at it well before I get there." He said and I can hear the worry in his voice.

He hung up and in no time the picture came in, it was Sam's picture, fear seized me by my throat, I couldn't breathe well, all I could think of is Tracy, my innocent Tracy, why would James send me Sam's picture.

"God, I should have stopped her," I said dropping my phone and burying my face in my hand.

"Huh? Micheal, it is aunty Nora." Michelle said and my hands came off my face very fast

"Where?"

"Here." They said pointing at my phone they were touching Sam's picture.

"What are you saying, angels? Aunty Nora is a lady."

"No, that is Aunty Nora."

"We told him he is a he but he said we must call him aunty Nora."

"What?" I asked and James came in that very minute.

"James!"

"Hi, Micheal and Michelle." He greeted and the kids hugged him.

"So, the picture, do you know that guy?" James asked sitting beside me.

"He is Sam."

"I know."

"He is one of my business partners, Tracy's friend in high school."

"Well, he is the guy that had a crush on your wife."

"I know."

"Well, I remember over three years ago, I sold a house to him, I forgot because it has been over three years, some of my findings of who gave the kids the chocolate led to him because the paper is specially made by a paper company for their company, and now I asked some people and I figured out he is a maniac, tell Tracy to stay away from him."

"James."

"Yes?"

"I'm finished"

"Why?"

"Tracy went to have dinner with him."
