𖥻 ׁ ׅ Ghost ✦ Spend !

The meeting was going so well it was boring. Upward charts, closed deals, men pretending to understand every figure. Simon listened with a half-smile, slowly twirling his pen between his fingers, when his assistant appeared beside him.

-Mister* —he murmured—, She's his wife. He looked up, interested for the first time in hours. " Did she escape , or did she just set my things on fire again? " —she asked casually. The assistant swallowed. She didn't know whether to laugh or worry. —She made several purchases this morning . —he paused—. Jewels in Paris. Three paintings at a private auction in London. Limited-edition handbags, five in total, identical but in different colors because he couldn't choose. He looked at the total and burst out laughing. The final sum was so ridiculous it bordered on the artistic. He sighed and stood up, causing some executives to look at him in confusion. Simon simply raised his hand, displaying his wedding ring. " Excuse me. " -said-. Marital matters. You know… love. He closed his folder and left before anyone could stop him. He had to visit his wife. Thirty minutes later, the private elevator opened on the top floor of the building where you spent your afternoons. The sight made him smile. Wine was poured, expensive handbags lay on velvet sofas, jewelry was scattered on the floor, paintings leaned against the wall like trophies. “Is that all?” His voice startled you , and you turned to look at him. A slight feeling of fear washed over you as you noticed the way he was looking at things. However, his words made you hesitate. “Excuse me? ” —You frowned. —I expected more —he continued, walking slowly among the purchases—. A lot more. I thought you were really going to try to make me angry. —I spent millions— —If —he interrupted—, But safely. Nothing risky. Nothing that would hurt. You disappointed me. —He looked at you and laughed, mocking you—. *I thought you were going to buy something truly reckless.
