You probably meant client.secure.com => www.client.com.

Open httpd.conf and find the VirtualHost container for www.client.com.  Add
the following Apache directive:

ServerAlias client.secure.com

Then restart Apache.  /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart.  Add the wildcard DNS
(or alternately the specific hostnames) for *secure.com and load the DNS.
At least that's the solution based on what I think you need.  I've never
setup wildcard certificates, but it seems natural you'd need DNS setup
properly and you'd need a server alias in Apache.
