The Goddess Sculpture Is Actually My Husband’s Secret Mistress! - Chapter 112: Chapter 112

I was always excited to go home and cuddle in his arms. He was the most sweetest and the kindest person making it hard to believe that such a man existed in real life.
I checked the time and it was already 9 pm. Everyone left at 5 and I was the only one left in the building.
I took my hand bag and wore my trench coat before going out. I turned all the lights off and took the elevator down to the lobby.
I decided to text Marcus and say that I was coming home. As soon as I sent the text Marcus called me.
"I'll come to pick you up"
"You don't need to. I came in my car. It's not that far so don't worry"
"But-" Before he could say any further I cut him off.
"You told me that you would cook dinner tonight. Are you ditching it?" I said in an innocent tone trying to sound sad.
"What? No I already prepared dinner. Come home quickly. Drive safe"
"I will, now bye"
I walked out the entrance and greeted the two security men guarding the building. I took the steep lane following to the underground parking lot which now only has my car and the company's cars.
My footsteps echoed through the empty floor, flickering lights left on the pathway just enough to see by. The walls shifted and creaked, looming an emptiness that never occurred before. Water droplets dripped from the ceiling in a rhythm, generating a melancholic melody.
The stillness of the parking lot sent shivers down my spine. I quickened my pace towards my car but all of a sudden I felt eyes on me. I came to a halt and looked around but it was dark to see anything.
A cold breeze brushed past me creating a hiss sound in my ear. I turned to my left and squinted my eyes but no one was there. I couldn't help but feel that someone was watching me.
I took another step towards my car but then I saw a dark silhouette standing behind the pillar, staring at me through it's white pupils. I gripped my hand bag and took a few steps back. But my legs gave out and I fell to the floor.
Tears started welling up as the figure walked from pillar to pillar, dragging a metal batten with him. My fingers trembled as his white teeth gleamed in the darkness showing no mercy. I scrambled back as I was too shocked to even scream.
I looked around for something but all of a sudden I felt a hand on my arm. I screamed and screamed, closing my eyes, refusing to see the stranger. Tears pooled down my cheeks fearing for what comes next.
"Serapha calm down. It's Clara. Marcus's sister"
I blinked my eyes to clear my vision and saw a pair of familiar green eyes. I quickly jumped into Clara's arms and dragged her out of the parking lot.
"Serapha what's wrong?"
I ran to the security and told them to check the parking lot. I quickly sprinted out into the light as waves of shock overlapped me.
"Serapha?" Clara asked in a more worried tone seeing my unusual behaviour.
"Please let's go from here" I started sobbing as memories of the night in the penthouse came rushing back.
"Okay okay my car is over there"
Clara opened the passenger door and I quickly got in. She drove away from my office before starting to pester me with questions.
"What happened?"
"I don't know umm... There was someone in the parking lot. Someone... dangerous"
"You should tell the police and Marcus-" I snapped my head at her and held her shoulder.
"No no please don't tell him. I don't want him to worry. I will inform the police but please don't tell Marcus" I looked at her pleadingly and after thinking for some time she nodded her head hesitantly.
I released a sigh in relief and leaned back on the seat. "How did you find me?"
"I was passing by and saw you coming out of the building. So I got down and ran after you but then I saw you on the ground looking like you saw a ghost"
"Thank you for coming. I don't know what I would do if you hadn't come" I know if Clara wasn't there I wouldn't have been very much alive and talking like now.
Clara drove me to our house and I invited her in. I opened the door and Marcus was in the kitchen boiling something. As soon as he saw me his face beamed into a smile.
He dusted his hands on his pants and removed the apron from his neck.
"Hey Serapha-" He suddenly stopped as his eyes fell on Clara who walked behind me "Clara what are you doing here?" Marcus asked more in shock.
"We met and she gave me a ride" I said instead of Clara.
"What about your car?" Marcus asked me in confusion.
"Well I thought taking a ride from her because we haven't talked in such a long time" Marcus looked at me hesitantly but decided to brush it off.
"Well then it's great. Clara, come have dinner with us" Marcus pulled two chairs and we sat on it.
