A Marriage To Cure A Broken Billionaire 38. When I Think Of You
Taesha's (POV)I knew how getting involved with another culture worked. My family probably won't be as accepting this time around after dealing with Sean's craziness. After what he and his family had put my family and me through. I sighed. How can I forget that we were two different races? His sky-blue eyes alone should have been enough of a reminder. There's just something special about that man. Dexter truly makes me forget everything important. I returned to work, trying not to think about Dexter, a guy who would never leave my heart because of his kindness. Looking back, the separation and long distance are far more challenging and painful than I thought they would be, as it had only been a short time. How could I become so attached? It's not making any sense what's so ever!One evening while at home alone, I decided to close the shop early and come home and relax and rest. I lay there on my couch watching TV late that evening. I wore a pair of yoga pants and a t-shirt with my ha

Taesha couldn’t believe it was fall season already. Pleasant days and cool nights. It was two months of waiting to hear something from Dexter. The last few weeks before the two months ended was the most anticipated time for Taesha because it was time to receive and follow Dexter's explicit instructions, which she had been mentally preparing to implement for months.She and Cameron lived off that video. But, at first, Cameron was skeptical about telling her friend what she thought about this guy. “Taesha, what do you know about this guy? You only spent four days with him.”“True, but it was four days and nights for 24 hours. The night we stayed up, we discussed everything from A to Z. I feel I know him enough to follow his instructions. He’s not going to ask me to do something ridiculous. So stop worrying about me. He’s a level-headed person.”Finally, Cameron gave up and waited for the instruction to decide whether Taesha should comply. ~~~Late one evening, Taesha came home from wo

Once Taesha entered the airport that afternoon, at first glance, she noticed the name Burlington Kingdom Lee Airport. Not giving it much thought, she went to the baggage claim area and waited for her luggage to show up on the belt. Once she retrieved all her belongings, putting them on the cart, she rolled her cart over and stood across from the information desk as instructed in Dexter's letter. While waiting, Taesha hoped that Dexter would be the one to pick her up from the airport. She stood there taking in the exciting sights. She was dressed semi-casual in a pink long-sleeve blouse, her black full-leg pants, and her five-inch pumps. Taesha's massive hair was full of curls, and her makeup reflected the soft color of her blouse with fuchsia lipstick on her lips. Her eyes discreetly pay attention to the people, most of who appear to be business folks in suits and ties. And the females, with their slick flat iron hairstyles, wore dresses or skirt suits. They all look very wealthy and

When Dexter receives the call from the men who work for him that Taesha has arrived safely that afternoon, he is on cloud nine. He couldn't stop smiling and looked forward to tonight's dinner at his Gamma's house. There was so much to be revealed tonight, and he looked forward to it all, but mostly seeing Taesha. That's when his phone rang. When he looked at the caller ID, he was stunned at who was calling him. "Father, hello." "Dexter, can you come to the house within the next hour?" "I was in the middle of preparing for something." "You can't spare an hour of your time?" He sighed heavily, holding the phone away from his ear. "Yes, I'll make room in my schedule to meet with you." The drive to his parent's home to meet with his father he knew wasn't a good thing. It never is when it comes to his father.

Taesha swiftly speaks up to somewhat ease her mind. "Oh, I don't mind sharing how we met that night. I was on my way to a ski lodge. But, unfortunately, I got off work late and got into an accident on a detour road in Colorado." "Yes, Mrs. Lee, it was very kind of him to stop and help me. I will always be thankful," Taesha said, giving Dexter a look across the table that conveyed more behind that message than thankful. "Taesha, I've been meaning to ask you, how long do you plan on being in Burlington?" Pamela inquired abruptly, changing the subject. "Ma'am, I'm planning to stay at least two weeks." Taesha smiled, looking at Pamela and the rest of the family, that rapidly paid attention to everything she said out of her mouth. Then Taesha transferred her gaze across the table to see Dexter's reaction. Dexter, as he was about to say something, his Gamma begins to question Taesha further. "What about your family? What about your job? Will they be okay with you being gone for so long

It's beautiful.""Thank you," Taesha replies, pleased that she liked it."I don't think I have anything quite like this. Thank you again."

Dexter thought about how it would pain him if he lost his Gamma. His family wasn't perfect, but he loved them. To lose his grandmother would be a significant loss in his life too. He held Taesha in his arms as they lay in bed and cried together. Then, they took a flight to Taesha's home for the funeral, and he served as one of the pallbearers for funeral.

"Taesha! Taesha!" "What, boy? What's wrong with you?" She asked, turning to look at him, concerned by his panicked voice as he entered the kitchen, huffing, and puffing."Baby, are you sick?" Dexter asked breathlessly."No, why would you think that? Wait! So you do know what you did?" She looked at him suspiciously."I don't know what I did. Did I do something, Tae? You just freaked me out! Whew! It's good you're not sick. So what is it that I supposedly did to you without knowing I did it?" Dexter asked with a sigh of relief. Taesha swallowed hard. "Don't be sarcastic! You got me pregnant!... I think...!" "Pregnant?" Dexter chuckled. "No way. Did I get you pregnant?” He asked excitedly. “No, did we get each other pregnant?" He pointed at her continuing. "Sorry, I didn't get that memo." Dexter laughed."Don't laugh. Dexter, did you knot me up on purpose? Look at those eyes. Yes, you did!

The honeymoon phase was filled with steamy nights at their home in the mountains. It appeared every two weeks, Dexter's sight would diminish and return to total darkness. But waking up blind wasn't as frightful now because he knew the capacity of one glass of Taesha’s homemade wine could do for his sight. Dexter, of course, was grateful for this breakthrough. Any breakthrough that could give him the sight he's always longed for, and he wanted Taesha to seriously consider sharing it with the masses of color-blind and legally blind people. But she was afraid of all the responsibility. Taesha was content, knowing it helped him; she didn’t want fame or notoriety. Even though she did want to help people, she had to figure out how to do it without drawing too much attention to herself.

To a wealthy, handsome man name Lee Dexter, who were many
A Marriage To Cure A Broken Billionaire 68. Careless or Careful?
Careless or Careful?"I don't know why but It's in the music, books you read, and some movies. I decided if I found the one, and I did, I would treat you with the utmost love and dignity. Out in a world, it's full of lust, Taesha. It's all about pure selfishness. My music is successful because I write what women need and want to hear. But women are very complex creatures, emotional and all. I've seen countless women willing to do a lot to get a man, win his love, money, and sometimes his body. Observing, being alone, I've learned much from females.""You mean you used the females for business purposes?""That's not fair. I've never taken advantage of anyone.""What am I? Some experiment for you to examine and use?" She stepped away. "No, never! I'm trying to say that, for the first time, you were the first girl I couldn't read or figure out, and you certainly have never been willing to do whatever I wanted you to do, and you were careless about my wealth. And when it comes to my body

Laying in bed, Taesha couldn't immediately dismiss her strong thoughts and urges. Instead, she felt a rush of excitement come over her, knowing how Dexter felt about her. Glancing at the clock, Taesha realized her day would start in the next two and half hours. She knew she had to get control of herself to go to sleep.

I feel so revived and alive now that I've talked to my baby.'Taesha opened her kitchen window to let in the fresh air, and listening to the birds sing added to her joy. Then, opening her closet door, she looks for something to wear.She pulled out her white linen suit. The skirt was a high waist fitted skirt that came just above the knees that had the open face gold zipper on the thigh. Next, Taesha put on her soft yellow silk tank top sheer blouse with the jacket with open g

When they had to awaken this second time during this same day, it was late afternoon. Taesha says, turning to look at one of the most handsome men on earth and his seductive smile. She mumbled to herself, "he's my husband." So many unanswered questions, but one mainly resided in a secret place in her heart.She put a big smile on her face. "So get up lazy, boy." Taesha pulls him by the arm out of bed. His hand found her waist and gently dragged her back to bed so she could lie beside him again. "Baby, we got to eat," she said, snickering."I know I got to feed my baby."It's very early in the marriage, and Taesha can see Dexter enjoys being with her, and if it wasn't love, it indeed felt like the real thing. She watching leave the bed, walking his lean muscular nude body across the room. Taesha ran approving eyes over his slim hips and muscled thighs, those powerful shoulders, "Mm...he was gloriously built," she uttered, licking her lips. Taesha couldn't remember when she was so exc

After an hour of talking, Dexter was still in complete darkness. The wine did not affect his eyes. Nevertheless, they both were heavily disappointed in the results. "I'm going to bed, Taesha," Dexter says, pulling the cover-up over his shoulders and turning his back to her in bed. Tears fell from his eyes as a mass of confused feelings entered his heart. "Baby, I'm sorry, but I never thought I had anything to do with your eyesight." "It's okay. Good night Tae." "Are you upset with me?" "No," "Then don't turn your back on me." "Taesha, I'm trying to go to sleep. Can you do the same?" "What? No! You are upset with me, and I don't like it!" "I'm not upset, but if you keep nagging me, I will be!" "Nagging you! I don't believe my ears! I'm trying to console you! I know you are disappointed that it didn't work! But don't turn your back to me as if it's my fault!" "God! won't you stop talking! I don't want to talk right now! Are your ears stopped up!" Dexter says, getting out of b

“Thanks, my love, for picking out my outfit. I can do the rest from here.”Dexter slipped on a pair of light brown skinny-leg pants with a deep royal gold thick sweater. He grabbed a lightweight gold scarf with guitar designs throughout the scarf. He brushed his hair in the direction he always did. Taesha had already sprayed his cologne on his clothes. He sat down while slipping into his shoes, grabbing his leather brown jacket and sunglasses as he left the bedroom.Once she selected his clothing, then she picked out her own. ‘So this is what it would be like with him completely blind for the rest of our lives.’ She never imagined herself being married to a man that was blind. She worried about them being an interracial couple and how others would treat them. But she never in millions of years thought she would be married to a man who couldn’t see. Taesha silently continued to pray his sight even if only what he had before with the ash gray would return. Then, she got dressed, took h

The following day, Taesha kisses her husband, stroking his handsome face while running her fingers through his dark hair. The gentle caresses of her fingers stir Dexter awake. Unfortunately, his sense of timing was off because he had stayed awake most of the night. But Dexter's heavy lids finally opened, then he closed them again, asking groggily. "Is it still nighttime, my love?" She smiles, thinking he is joking. "Baby, yesterday is officially over. I know you wish it could last on and on. But a new day has arrived. Look, Dex, the sun is shining brightly."Fear gripped his heart as he opened his eyes again, and it was pitch black! Dexter rubbed his eyes, reopening them only to be once again to be faced with darkness. Taesha sees the anguish on his handsome face. "Baby, what's wrong?" "Taesha, I can't see! I can't see anything!" "What do you mean? Are you seeing in ash gray again?" "No, I'm blind! I can't see at all!" "You have not been this way before, unable to see at all!
