A Kiss And Many Lies Chapter 22
FelixI had to rush Everleigh to a hospital that was described to me by the hotel staff. She just passed out again and hasn't regained consciousness.Immediately, I drove to the hospital, and two nurses hurried to help bring Everleigh inside the ER.“ Is she going to be fine?" I panicked, asking the nurses to be sure nothing happened to Everleigh.“ She will be fine; we'd like you to remain in the reception for now till we find out what Is wrong with her, sir," One of the nurses said as we approached the ER, and the door was immediately shut before I could realize it.I went blank. “What have I done?” I hit myself hard in the head as I leaned by the wall just close to the door of the ER.After standing there for a few minutes, I saw a nurse coming out of the ward and my heart sank in fear.“ How's she? Did anything bad happen to her?" I rushed to the nurse, who seemed distressed.“ It's complicated, Sir. Please excuse me, I have to call the doctor." She hurried out of my sight In a f

FelixThe morning sun cast a lovely glow on the earth, illuminating the walls of the city.It's been two days since we returned from the hospital to the hotel and Eveleigh has been acting moody and strange.I swear that I didn't know what Doctor Roberson discussed with Eveleigh. She never told me. And this broke me inside.Since we got back, I ensured I stayed beside Eveleigh just to make her happy and comfortable.A feeling of relegation surged me, and at some point, I wanted to stop being kind and doting around Everleigh, but I still found myself pushing harder just to earn her trust.That morning, I got out of bed and hurried to Everleigh's room to check up on her first.I knocked at the door, and in less than two minutes, Everleigh opened the door, and I walked in.“ Good morning, dear. Did you sleep well?" I pulled her into my arms and hugged her.She heaved heavily, showing a sign of restlessness, but she never responded to me. Instead, she buried her face in my chest.Seeing t

EverleighI left the hotel without the knowledge of Felix. I needed somewhere quiet to relax my mind, so I began to walk aimlessly down the road.The street was cool and lovely, carrying a gentle breeze that blew life and strength to me. Also, soft music thrilled from afar, helping my mind that was a whirlwind of thoughts.As I walked ghostly, smiling aimlessly to myself to the sensation of the music that pierced my ears, my phone began to ring. It was Felix.I didn't bother taking his calls. This was the twelfth time he would call. I wonder what he must be going through at the moment because of me. I have caused him a lot already.A lot was happening that I needed to figure out myself. Felix can't keep doting on me forever.Firstly, Clyde’s seed kept growing peacefully Inside of me, and to make matters worse, I didn't know what to do with the kids. Whether to terminate or birth them. If I bring them to life, they would constantly keep reminding me of Clyde, whom I have crossed my m

EverleighWhat the hell was Madison doing in Pennsylvania? How did she know I was here? My heart sank with fear.Now I understand what she meant during her last visit. Madison is the last person who would ever wish to see me live happily.I watched her as I and Felix left the reception. I wasn't sure if Felix recognized her. He barely looks at women.Things have become more complicated than I ever thought. Madison had given a condition some days back: to leave Felix and return to Clyde, who never loved me, or die a miserable death.“ Sit, I have ordered something else for you. The breakfast I ordered earlier has become cold. You need something hot"Felix said to me as we entered our apartment and slammed the door. All that he was saying never meant anything to me because of Madison.“ Did you see the tall woman in the reception? I mean, the one who wore a short leather shirt and Jacket?" I asked Felix to be sure he never saw Madison.Felix frowned. “What lady are you talking about,

FelixMadison and I are pretty close. When I learned she was in Pennsylvania, I was excited and asked her to go over to the hotel to see me.Right now, I'm pretty confused. From the door, I heard Everleigh engaged in a heated argument with Madison, but the reason for their argument remained a misery for me. Are they close?“ Miss Clark, are You two friends?" I turned surprise at Madison, who happened to be having a heated argument with Everleigh, and then I rolled my eyes back to Everleigh.“ I thought you said you both aren't close?" I asked Everleigh, my lips paused in awe as I held the tray of food in my hands.“ Oh, come on Mr Felix, Diana here is my just a fan. You know how popular Madison Clark is, right?" Madison bragged and I became more than surprised."Diana? Who's Diana" I immediately dropped the tray in my hands on the table. Seems I have been missing out a lot.“ Can we just go talk about business?” Madison said with a feigned smile and turned to Everleigh " Sorry I h

Everleigh“ I don't understand. Why are you referring to me as Diana? Oh, is it because the Famous Madison Clark referred to me as Diana?You should know all these celebrities. They could call their fans whatever name they chose. This isn't a big deal and I am not Diana either. My idol just chose that name for me . kinda special too" I refused to play folly at this point. Felix should not find out the truth behind the name Diana. It will forever remain complicated.Felix didn't respond. He sat look at me, obviously wanting a better explanation. And with the expression on his face, I know I was about to be caught. His pale face was contorted with rage. No doubts, he knew i have been deceiving him all along.“ You know, Felix. I'm sorry. I'm sorry I lied to you that Madison and I weren't close. Actually she has been my idol and we chat like friends. There's nothing more to our what you see, okay" My explanation was a repeated one. No different from what Madison explain but Felix was

Everleigh“ I am not interested in this, Everleigh." Felix’s eyes sparkled with caution.” Meanwhile, I heard Laura's been found. The lawsuit has been terminated and dismissed by prejudice. I believe you know what that means"" Why? When was that? How did Laura get found?”Befuddled, I asked with curiosity in my voice but Felix walked away from me to the bathroom without replying to me a word.I turned to look at him. The shocking revelation was enough to get my eyes off his waist, but it didn't help me. I still found myself glaring lustfully at Felix.Once Felix became out of sight, I sank into his bed and exhaled deeply.One question kept popping in my mind. I was beginning to wonder how Felix got to know about Laura’s kidnap more than I did. Wasn't I the prime suspect? I should know more. How come I’ve been blank all this while? Those thoughts kept hoarding my mind.A few minutes later, Felix returned from the bathroom with his towel tied loosely on his waist while a few drops of wat

EverleighThe morning sun rose with a hew of orange and white glint on the earth.I woke up very early to begin to prepare for our trip to Wellington. It's going to be a long journey and I need to pack my stuff and get myself ready.Since yesterday's fight, Felix has never checked on me, whether I was alright or dying. This was unlike him. Usually, it wouldn't take up to twenty minutes after our fight and Felix would come apologizing even if I was the one at fault.I guess the hand of the time still turns right? But it's fine. I have my life to worry about, especially my pregnancy. I have concluded in mind not to have Clyde's kids. Once I return to Wellington, I should book an appointment with a good doctor to take them off. I needed a balanced life.That morning, I was so famished that I could devour anything that came my way.I didn't want to bother Felix about anything again, So I took the intercom in my room to order some coffee and toasted bread. That should do for now.In no

EverleighFelix returned home the next day, and I decided to show him the threatening messages I had been receiving lately.I guess this was the same person from the last time while we were in Pennsylvania. Although the phone number was different, I knew It must be the same person.Felix took the phone to go through the message himself. I showed him the first one but he was mad at me for being in danger and keeping it all to myself.“Why did you keep this away from me?" He fumed." I'm sorry. I was just frightened by the message; that is why I didn't tell you,” I explained, yet Felix refused to listen.“ I will find out who the person is and deal with whoever they are," Felix said in a strangling voice.He was all moody when he got back from Las Vegas. I also was too scared to ask him about his trip. Somehow, I feel Felix would find out the truth one day and that would be the end of us.I swallowed hard. “ It's no big deal. I think the person may just be seeking attention. Don't worr

EverleighFelix left for his business trip, and I became somewhat bored.I have been drained of thoughts since last night. However, I tried to remain sane because of my pregnancy so I strode to the kitchen to be with Mrs Hannah. She was as kind and homely as a mother.Even though I was in the kitchen where Mrs Hannah was keeping me company, I couldn't just shake off the despair that had settled in my heart.Felix has been working for my father for three years now, and I didn't know. How?‘ Oh, Everleigh, you so dumped’ I cursed myself inside, hitting my head with a frown etched on my face.“ Are you alright, Mrs Felix?" Mrs Hannah asked when she noticed my uneasiness.“ Oh, I'm fine. Just some crazy symptoms down there" I forced a smile.Mrs Hannah understood what I was saying because she was a mother who had a grown-up daughter of my age. I told her I was pregnant and since then, she has never hesitated to shower me with motherly love and support.“ Oh, I see. It's always like that

Felix“ This place is so refreshing and fascinating. Such a sight to behold" Everleigh turned around, admiring the beautiful restaurant I treated her to.“ I know you like it," I replied, pulling a seat for her while I sat opposite her.With my eyes darting around, I caught a glimpse of a waiter and quickly signaled him to come attend us.We placed our orders; however, before the meals came, I decided to break what seemed like good news to Everleigh and discuss our wedding together.“ Why are you staring at me that way? Do you want to consume me with those lusty eyes?" She chuckled when I kept staring at her, thinking how to break the good news." You know I can't get over you, right? You’re my greatest obsession”" Then you're going to die being a pathetic lover boy” She laughed." I don't mind. As long as it's you I'm dying for, then I can remain a pathetic lover. Anyway, I have things to say to you" I pulled my seat to kiss the breast of the table.“ Okay, let's hear it. And it be

FelixKnowing that Laura was about to expose my hidden agenda before Everleigh made me rush from my room to first find Everleigh.While I left in search of Ever, I warned the security men at the gate to ensure they threw Laura out.I know Laura. She would destroy the gates if they refused her in. I could hear her make a fuss from the gate already.My fear was Everleigh. She was going to hate me from now on after Laura spilled everything to her.Scurrying to her room, I opened the door but she wasn't there.“ What?" My world crashed. Where could she have gone? She was not in the living room either.Flushed with the heat of a betrayal, I made my way to the gym room upstairs where she often visited to keep fit.She wasn't there either. Then I remembered I had not set my eyes on her since the day began. With the look of things, she wasn't inside the mansion.Perhaps, she might be outside in the garden which was about Forty-five minute walk from the gates.If Everleigh is outside, then my
A Kiss And Many Lies Chapter 46
FelixI didn't sleep that night as I kept battling with different thoughts. Our wedding was In seven days yet Everleigh never cared about anything. She's so selfish.Although the marriage was just a contract marriage, I intended on making it a huge one, at least, to make Cylde jealous, but I was beginning to think otherwise because of Everleigh’s late behavior.Glaring at all the gifts I got for her that were just dumped on my bed, a feeling of despair washed over me.Since I was struggling to get a good sleep because of her, I called Grace to get some sleeping pills for me. I have never done that before.Grace got the pills and I didn't hesitate to try them out. In my mind, I thought the drugs would start reacting immediately but it didn't.Rather, It ended up giving me some chills and a throbbing headache just by the left side of my head.“ Alcohol would do," I said and walked to my wine cellar to get my favorite drink, Romanee Conti, to consume.While I walked hopelessly from the w

Felix“ What Is it that you found, Rose? I'm all ears" I pulled my chair forward, desperate to hear what Rose had to say.“ Hold on. I will show you something" Rose said and brought out her laptop to show me something.I waited patiently until Rose powered her laptop before she showed me a picture of some little kid of about ten years.“ Do you know her?" She asked as we studied the picture together.I shook my head. “ No. Who's the little kid?" I raised my curious face to her.“ She's your partner, Everleigh"I turned the laptop to myself to have a clear view of the photo.“ She looks different," I replied, struggling to believe it.“ That was when she was ten years old. I have been doing a deep search about her and had to track the elementary school she attended. I found out that the elementary school she attended was located in Las Vegas. There's a thin line that she could be a citizen there, either by birth or naturalization.For now, this is the only piece of information I have

FelixLaura and I met as usual In a hotel the following evening. She wasn't moved by what she did the last time. She didn't even apologize for stabbing me but I spared her foul temper this one time.I ordered something light and we began to eat without speaking to each other. I didn't tell Everleigh I was going to stay back late while I was leaving for the office in the morning. She has been avoiding and keeping to herself lately, so I gave her the space she wanted.Cutleries clicked against dishes as I and Laura ate silently without looking into each other's eyes.When I was ready to speak up, I took the clean napkin on the table and wiped my lips.“ Why have you been avoiding my calls since last night? You were lying in the hands of your lover and enemy, I guess." I put a little smile on my face and raised my gaze to Laura.She didn't respond till she finished her food and drank enough wine. Laura's table etiquette quirks. She can never be compared to my Polished Everleigh." Why d

EverleighRose was sitting comfortably on the sofas in the living room with her polished exterior and her sweet smell filled the air, provoking attention.I saw how she consciously raised her face from her phone when she heard footsteps from the stairs which made her smile grow when she noticed I was the one.Respectfully, she stood up, her head up high and her hands crossed against itself In a way that shows loyalty and simplicity.“ Rose, dear" I called when I was still far away, putting a sweet smile on my face.She smiled and greeted me at once. “ Good morning, ma’am. Trust you had a restful night” Her melliferous voice became more syrupy, attracting me to her.No one will come across Rose and not fall In love with her. She is a masterpiece of nature, with a beauty that surpasses description. Her bright, intelligent eyes sparkled like the sapphires and were buried in deep kindness.Her midnight black long hair that fell across her shoulders was neatly sleeked in a polished bun t

EverleighThe morning sun pierced my eyes and I winked while wiping my eyes. I was very weak with this throbbing headache that made me look more miserable.Last night was pretty depressing for me. I tend to be too emotional these days. I cry about the most silly things ever.Ever since Felix told me that Laura had been found, I never took it seriously because the story behind her release was just too generic. Even the blind would know that it was all fake.But yesterday, after I saw a viral post made by my ex-husband, I pinched myself hard to wake up from slumber.Perhaps, I was the only one not on the planet. Things were happening fast before my eyes but I have been naive and completely oblivious to them all.Laura being abducted, and Clyde suddenly proposing marriage to her was one of the things that I had never cared to investigate.I wasn't against their relationship but the fact that I was living like some corpse made me cry. Everything happening was just surreal, but I went comp
