Chapter 26 – Fear in Everything
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56(Leigh’s POV)
“Jealous, my foot!” I hissed angrily as I pulled a chair, sitting beside Elle and ignoring Alex’s charming smile. I lower my gaze, and despite him calling my name, I continue to ignore him because all it takes is one look, one kiss, and one touch, and then I forget everything.
Elle puckered her lips, and her eyebrows raised as she rose to her feet and transferred to the chair across from me. When Alex sat beside me, I raised my hand to Elle, gesturing to her we should change seats. When she didn’t move, I glared at her, causing her to sneer at me, but she stood up.
When we changed seats and I got settled in my chair, Alfie and Alex changed places.
Elle raises the steak knife and growls at me. “If you ask me to stand up again, I assure you I will kill you. I’m hungry.”

(Leigh’s POV)If anyone can survive without talking for long hours, I will be that one person. Royce and Kayla told me it was one of my many talents that annoys my other siblings. From the parking lot of the building until we reached home, I did not utter a word, neither did Alex. We let GPS do the talking for three hours, recalculating the route many times because I didn’t tell him the direction, and he didn’t have the guts to ask me.As soon as he stopped the car, I immediately unfastened my seatbelt to stay away from Alex, hoping to open the door and run to the swimming pool, but he was fast. He holds my wrist, and his eyes narrow as he studies my face.I met his dark brown eyes, squinting my eyes on him, and pressed my lips, promising myself I would win this battle. It was hard to read his eyes, but after putting myself in an embarrassing situation

(Alexander’s POV)The dinner was much better and more relaxing than last night.I realized that this was how they spent their meals on ordinary days, a conference-like dinner, giving updates on how their day went in a fun way, and when Carlito opened up about what happened on the 47th floor, they couldn’t help themselves from laughing. I was entertained when they told stories about how Leigh tried to overcome her fear of height but failed to conquer her acrophobia many times.My eyes lovingly pinned on Leigh, and looking at her laughing at every shared story made me understand that she may have lots of issues, but she did her best to resolve them. Although she failed many times, I still think she was still trying.Being part of this family made me realize that dinner could be fun. I hardly remember enjoying dinner without talki

(Leigh’s POV)As soon as he closed the door, he put me down, turned his back on me, and went to the bathroom. My gaze follows him until he closes the bathroom door. I heave a sigh, concluding our act of overflowing sweetness is over.Another day as Mrs. Hearst is over.I walk to my dresser, take my yoga mat, and place the jar in the middle. I hug my knees and look at the mixed pebbles inside the jar. This will be a long night, indeed. But I can’t just be mad at Katherine for taking the jar and playing with the colorful pebbles. I sighed again, unsure if it was because of the pebbles or about Alex, who just left me here.My head raised when the bathroom door opened, and my lips parted, seeing Alex wearing nothing except the towel wrapped around his waist.“What are you doing there, Mrs. Hearst?” he asks, hi
Addicted To My Accidental Husband Chapter 30 – Beginning of Long Night
(Leigh’s POV)I was annoyed when Alex switched the sprinkle of water from warm to cold, and as he promised, we finished taking a shower without any kisses, and the only touch I got was when he lathered the soap on my body. I didn’t even understand why he had to give me a bath when I was capable of doing it myself.I felt disappointed and angry, and I went out of the bathroom brooding, stomping my feet as I walked out that I had missed the jar. The open glass container fell, and the colorful pebbles were scattered on the yoga mat.“Argh!” I screamed briefly as I knelt on the mat and picked up the pebbles to return them to the jar. I grabbed a handful of colorful pebbles, and when I stared at them in my palm, my attention shifted to them. I sat down on the mat, forgetting I was still wrapped in my towel, and then put all the pebbles on the floor and

(Leigh’s POV)The continuous ‘bzzt’ sound of my cellphone buzzing, which I put on silent and vibrate mode, woke me up. Before I could open my eyes, I knew it was a challenge to move because I was comfortably snuggled to Alex’s side, my hand was on his chest, and my leg was on top of his legs. His arms were wrapped around my body that I would wake him up if I moved, yet I had to choose. Either I escape from our sweet cuddling, or whoever is calling will enter my bedroom.Slowly, I lift his arms, praying he won’t wake up yet, and reach for Eeyore to replace me, and then I climb down from the bed to get my phone from the bedside table.“Kayla, do you know what time it is yet?” I asked in a hushed tone, taking my nightdress robe and glancing at my sleeping husband. Suddenly, I felt jealous of Eeyore, which was in his arms rather than

(Leigh’s POV)Georgia giggled. “I know you’re on speaker mode right now, boss. Please don’t give the beautiful girl beside you any negative thoughts about you and me.”I wriggled, but Alex did not only wrap his arms around my body, but his legs also seized my lower body like a snake ready to squeeze me. I gave all my strength, but I could not escape from him, and Alex seemed to be enjoying and loving our position because he could freely plant kisses on top of my head.“Ha! Ha!” he said as if mocking her. “Thank you, and yes, right now, she’s beside me, and I’m ready to devour her in this early morning.”She guffawed, and then we heard the honking of a car. Is she driving?“Trying to make me jealous, boss?” she asked, and the way she said it, she seemed

(Leigh’s POV)“This coffee is superb, Alex,” I heard my father complimenting Alex after breakfast.I watched him make coffee for everyone and listened to him as he shared about their coffee farm. I feel like there is much more to learn about Alexander Hearst. Was I too busy with my life that I neglected to learn from Mei?Alex glanced at me when my phone rang, but he returned his attention to my father, ignoring me as I took the call. Though I knew he was curious about who was my caller, he delightedly continued his conversation with Papa. With Chase-The-Family-Lawyer name appearing on the screen, I walked back to my bedroom to answer his call.“Chase,” I said, pacing in my bedroom, fidgeting my hands, and thinking the call was a matter of life and death. My eyes darted to my reflection in the mirror. I move my head closer to the mirr

(Leigh’s POV) “Are you crazy? You want me to get you pregnant, and then I lose all my rights as the father?” Alex said angrily. I burst out laughing. I tried to speak, but I choked as tears rolled down my cheeks, unsure if it was because I wanted to cry or laugh at my joke. “You find humor in that, Kayleigh?” He snarled at me. I could see he was clenching his fists as he tried to control his anger, but before he could stand up, I held his two hands to stop him from getting out of the tub. “My god, Alex, we’re getting serious,” I chuckled softly. “And I was curious how you would react because I’ve seen this in the movie many times, but wow!” I shook my head, wiping my tears. “Woah! I didn’t know men would really react like that.” “You think it’s funny that you joke about keeping the child yourself?” He growled. &

(Alexander’s POV) “You may kiss your wife,” the officiant said, but my lips molded Leigh’s lips before he could finish his line. Leigh and I laughed as we watched Alfie’s video that he had sent us. I saw myself as tears rolled down my cheeks as I claimed her mouth, tasting the sweetness of my wife’s lips and feeling the overflowing happiness that we had finally renewed our vows. We were seated on the couch, facing the king-sized bed where the twins slept soundly. “Renewal of vows,” Leigh whispered as she leaned her head on my shoulder. “When I saw you and Chase talking this morning -” I cut him. “He was telling me the big problem I’d face if I continued my plan of marrying Zyra.” Her almond-shaped eyes gaped at me, looking at me with wonder. “Why didn’t you sign the divorce papers, Alex?” I planted a kiss on her hair. “Because I always hoped we will have our chance, Leigh.” “Me, too,” She smiled, but her eyes squinted and asked me, “When they said that the groom was missing, I

You’re not the one who loses the groom, so give that beautiful smile and have a blast,” she said, picking up my bouquet and giving it to me.“I just saw him a while ago -” My voice trailed off, realizing it was nonsense to talk about him now. “And why are you here?

(Leigh’s POV)So much for my plan of beauty rest!I hardly had a wink last night because baby Amanda was crying almost all night that I wanted to rush her to the hospital, but whenever I danced her in my arms, she would stop crying and go to sleep. George brought Maxine yesterday to our house, and since she couldn’t come to our bedroom, she has been howling and crying until midnight. Only when Kayla got Callie out of my room that she stops whimpering.“What happened to you?” Elle blinked, looking at me as she entered my room.I climbed down from the bed lazily, went to my dresser, and saw my hair worse than a haystack. I groaned, looking at my eyes.She rolled her eyes, tugging me back to the bed.“What time are we leaving?” I asked, lying again on the bed. I need sleep—more of it.She chuckled. “We’re actually leaving. Just sleep in the car,” she suggested. “You need to have your hair done, makeup, and everything.”I groaned, going under the covers of my blanket. “Why is it that it d

It was a miracle that the weather today cooperated with us. Since Alex left that night, the sky has been crying with me, and though my family and friends saw me smiling, my heart was aching from the deep wound of the hard decision we had made.As long as we are together, every step or decision we make will be a mistake.“The flowers are soooo beautiful, Leigh,” Alfie uttered, admiringly looking at the different flowers, from roses of different colors to other flowers that we hardly recognize unless they would tell us what they were.I smirked at him. “When you get married, and the budget is sky is the limit, this is the result.”“But the couples would go to hell after,” he sighed.“Don’t say that,” I said, looking at the large and open meadow.It was last week when Mr. Hearst, the older Mr. Hearst,

Even if I don’t ask her, I know how she likes staying here because of the homey feeling we are experiencing.I heaved a deep sigh as I looked at the dark sky, trying to gather my senses together, thinking of what happened today and what I would do after this. For a honeymoon idea, I knew how much Leigh wanted to go back to the farm. We could spend our time there as one family, and when the twins are one or two, maybe we could all travel together.“Beer?” Royce asked, giving me a bottle of beer.I smiled, taking the bottle.“Reconsidering?” He sat on the wooden bench, gazing at the sky.“About Leigh or the twins?” I smirked, causing him to chuckle.He drank his beer, giving me a silent answer to tell him my plans for them.“As much as I hated Leigh for lying to me, I still love her, Royce,” It was easier to be honest to him than tell Leigh my feelings.

(Leigh’s POV)Was it the warm sprinkle from the shower? Perhaps Zyra’s fingernails have poison causing me to feel like this.Before he stepped into the shower area, my body was burning with desire, and there was a need inside me that wanted him to touch me… and kiss me.“Leigh,” His voice trailed off because as soon as he was in front of me, my hands grabbed his head, curling my fingers to his hair, never wanting to let him go. My heels have their own mind, raising my body to reach his soft lips, making my tongue do its work, exploring his mouth, taunting him into an adventure that I didn’t care if we would regret in the end.I must have turned on something in him, too. He pinned me to the wall, and his hands excitedly touched every part of me, feverishly arousing my heart, body, and soul. We were on fire, kissing intensely, touching passionately, caressing our bodies like we have hungry for a long time.He brought me into a new world when he thrust his manhood to my core, rocking and

Being a single mother, I had to work, but I mostly handled special editing projects, so I could still work from home. I asked Dyna to watch them for a while as I went inside, but as soon as I returned to the porch, she left in a hurry to go to her bakeshop. If only I could pull the days to our wedding day so that this would be over. Yet I also wished to stop the time, hoping that Alex would not get my children from me. I was in the middle of editing a picture when a familiar car stopped in front of our house.I rose to my feet, walking in the direction of the white vehicle because I was not sure at first who could our unexpected visitor be, but when the passenger door at the back of the car opened, I was surprised to see Zyra.She dashed to me, looking furious as she approached me. “You bitch!” She screamed angrily as she pulled my hair toward her.I could n

I received sullen looks, especially from her brothers, but no one shared their disagreement.I have been staring at her ceiling for an hour now, listening to her even breathing. I felt guilty for taking our children on the day of her birthday, but I didn’t know, and I was already consumed by much anger that I didn’t think much.When I heard baby Amanda cry, I closed my eyes immediately when I felt Leigh move. She got up, still yawning, when she climbed down from the bed, taking our daughter from the crib. She sat on the chair next to the bed and pulled off her sleepwear to expose her breast to her. When I heard her even breathing as she breastfed our baby, I opened my eyes to check on them, watching her look like she was sleeping.As my little girl w

She scrambled to her feet, ignoring me in front of her and seeing only her two children.“Alex…” She cried.Eloisa, her eyes puffy from crying, nodded. “Yes. Alex came back and returned them.”“Are they hungry? Is Alex…” Leigh said, pressing her breasts and shaking her head. “Never mind.”“You have to eat and clean up first, Leigh,” Kayla told her.“Of course,” she said, pacing around the room, not knowing what to do first. “Is Alex -”She stopped again, perhaps she still didn’t know how to ask it, but couldn’t she see me?
