The Love of Mr and Young Miss
Investigatory

"Darling, did something happen?" devian asked when Carissa was back.

"Ehm. No. gabe. It was just enough to line the toilet." replied Carissa.

Devian realized something was happening looking at Carissa's unsettled expression. But Devian did not want to ask again so that his wife was not awkward.

"Back to the boutique?" ask Devian again.

"No. I just want to go home." replied Carissa.

"alright. I'll take you." said Devian.

Devian immediately drove his car home. On the way Devian finds Carissa who is not as usual. Carissa is silent a thousand languages with a blank expression.

15 Minutes drive, arrive in front of the young couple's house.

Carissa was shocked when suddenly Devian's hand clasped her hand gently. Carissa turned her head and looked at the face of her handsome husband.

"I don't know what you're thinking. Tell me if it can make you calmer" said Devian with his shady eyes.

Carissa let out a sigh, she did not know if she should tell about her meeting with the mysterious man earlier or not. Carissa herself tried to remember the figure of the man but to no avail.

"Sorry." That's all Carissa said.

"It's okay. Rest well." said Devian then stroked gently the head of his wife.

"Thank you, Dev." said Carissa.

"Hmmm.. I went back to the company first." said Devian then kissed his wife's forehead long enough.

Carissa closed her eyes feeling the warmth of Devian's lips pressed against her.

"I love you, Dev." said Carissa to Devian's surprise and then showed her smile.

"I love you too my wife." Devian replied then tightly hugged Carissa's body.

After a long hug, Carissa got out of the car and waved her hand and went inside the house.

Devian drove his car back to the company.

Carissa put her body on the bed. Carissa closed her eyes and a shadow appeared of her meeting with the mysterious man earlier.

Carissa tried to remember, but she never had a relationship with any man.

"What does that man mean?" ask Carissa.

"Why don't I remember it at all?"

Tired of questions and not getting answers, Carissa fell asleep.

"Lex, come to my room now" Devian said as he met Alex in the lobby.

Alex nodded his head then followed Devian into the elevator.

"What's wrong?" ask Alex.

"We'll talk in my room." Devian replied, leaving Alex confused.

"Did something big happen?" muttered Alex.

Ting!

The elevator door opened, Devian quickly exited and headed to his room.

"Huf." Alex breathed a rough breath walking behind Devian.

Devian sat down and leaned his back on his chair, followed by Alex sitting in front of him.

"What's wrong? Your face is so ugly." Alex asked in a slightly mocking tone.

"Don't insult me. I need help." Devian answered making Alex frown.

"Help?"

"For what? You don't usually be formal with me." said Alex who felt strange with his best friend and boss.

"It's about my wife." Devian replied then exhaled a rough breath.

"Your wife is angry with you?" alex asked but Devian's head was answered.

"Then?" alex asked again, growing curious.

"So lunchtime at the resto, he went to the toilet. But after coming from the toilet, his expression changed like something was threatening him." Devian replied making Alex even more confused.

"Waitwait. What does that have to do with asking for my help?" ask Alex.

"I want you to check the CCTVs there. Just so I know what's really going on." Devian answered, making Alex round his eyes.

"Why don't you ask him yourself with the security guard at the resto?" ask Alex annoyed.

"I thought so too. But afraid that my wife was offended because she preferred to keep it a secret from me." Devian replied making Alex sigh.

"What about the pay?" ask Alex with a sly smile.

"Just calm. I will pay according to your performance." Devian replied with a grin on his face.

"Damn you!" aspersons Alex.

"Well, I'm going to the restaurant" Alex said with an annoyed face.

"Thank you my best friend" Devian said as he waved his hand at Alex.

"Curtain!"

Alex walked out of the room and immediately headed to the restaurant where Devian and Carissa had lunch.

It took Alex 10 minutes to get to the restaurant. Alex goes to the security guard and talks about what happened to Devian's story.

"Sorry, Sir. To see the CCTV footage it must get permission from the restaurant manager" said the fat man.

"Curtain! Ribet once." inner Alex.

Alex pulls out his cell phone to call someone and soon a young woman comes to him.

"Mr Alex?" ask the woman.

"Yes." replied Alex flatly.

"good. Please go to the security room" said the young woman and gave instructions to the thick-bodied man who was a security officer.

"What time is it, sir?" ask the young lady.

"Around 1pm today. In front of the toilet." Alex replied.

The security guard quickly saw the CCTV footage as requested by Alex on the computer screen.

Alex stared at the screen.

On the screen it shows Carissa who has come out of the toilet and also the figure of a man dressed all in black. They seemed to be talking for a long time and the man left Carissa in a confused state.

"Can I have a copy of this tape?" ask Alex.

"Sure, sir." replied the young lady.

Alex takes out a flash disk and then copies the CCTV footage to give to Devian.

"Who's the guy who met Carissa? It's suspicious." murmured Alex.

After he finished copying the recording, Alex thanked him and said goodbye to return to the MF Group.

"Dev, here's the tape you asked for" Alex said, then handed Devian a flash disk.

Devian quickly accepted it and directly plugged it into the laptop.

Devian looked at the tape carefully. His eyes were fixed on Carissa's face which looked surprised and confused. It's a pity that Devian can't figure out his wife's conversation with the mysterious man.

"Who is that guy?" ask Devian.

"It looks like he's very suspicious." said Alex who was also curious.

Devian was still focused on seeing the video until he saw Carissa picking up a handkerchief and putting it in a bag.

"Or is she your ex-wife?" guess Alex made Devian almost choke on his own saliva.

"Hem. It could be." said Devian whose face had turned sour.

"I'm just guessing. Don't think negatively just yet" Alex said feeling guilty.

"If your wife knew her, she wouldn't be confused like that" Alex said, again making Devian agree.

"Who is that guy? Does he have any evil intentions?" ask Devian in heart.
