Bound By Fate: The Billionaire's Contract Bride Chapter Sixty-five
Frieda was alone in the hospital room now; she had asked some of the nurses to help her locate her purse, which they did. They had gotten it back to her, she opened the small black purse, looking at the door of her room to be sure that Alexander and Lucas weren’t on their way in. The relief of finding the vials before she had to spray them on again was short-lived because she took a look inside and found that two of the vials were shattered. The liquid is absorbed into the material of the purse. “Shit! No. No.” She muttered under her breath, her hands trembling in panic. She put her hands in and found that the remaining two were still intact but this meant one thing. She had reduced her timetable by half and she had to call Hensley. I need to hold it together, there’s still time. Hensley could find a way to get me another one, She thought. Soon enough, she heard some footsteps; she had to put on the scent again before Alexander returned. She took one of the vials and twisted it op

As they arrived at the Pharmacy, Lucas came down from the vehicle to go into the pharmacy to get the medication. Alexander and the driver were left in the car“Did you grow up in this town?” Alexander asked. “No sir. I grew up in New York. I moved here as a teenager with my mom. We stayed with my grandmother before she passed, and I’ve been here ever since.” “If you don’t mind me asking, how old are you?” Alexander wondered if maybe he could have some information about people in the town. “Oh! I’m 23 sir. But because I play rugby, people say I look older.” “Mmmm,” Alexander said, the kid is too young to know anything about me. He probably hasn’t been here for more than ten years, Alex thought.He watched as Lucas approached the car with a small bag. It had the migraine medication. As they drove back to the hospital, all Alexander wanted to do was sleep. Every other thing could happen tomorrow but for today, he just needed to rest.

Aria felt her limbs grow heavier as a strange fog clouded her mind. She blinked slowly, her vision swimming, and tried to focus on the man who had just entered the dimly lit hotel room. Her supposed boyfriend, Ethan, leaned casually against the doorframe, an unsettling smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. The sight of him sent a chill down her spine, and despite the haze overtaking her thoughts, the primal urge to escape surged through her.She struggled to move, every fiber of her being fighting against the numbing sensation creeping through her veins. Ethan approached her slowly, his eyes gleaming with dark intent. He had drugged her. It was the only explanation for the dizziness, the way her muscles refused to obey her commands. "Don't fight it, Aria," Ethan murmured in a low voice, his fingers tracing her cheek in a way that made her skin crawl. "You'll be fine. Just relax."Panic surged through Aria's chest, She could barely lift her arms, but she clawed at the bedsheets, us

Aria's eyes fluttered open, the faint light streaming in through unfamiliar curtains making her blink in confusion. She groaned, her head still spinning from the events of the previous night. She slowly sat up, panic filling her as the memory of being drugged and chased by her ex-boyfriend Ethan flooded her mind. With shaky hands, she quickly checked her body for any signs of abuse. A sigh of relief escaped her when she realized her clothes were still intact, and there were no obvious signs that anyone had taken advantage of her while she was unconscious."Where am I?" she muttered, taking in her surroundings. The luxurious room she found herself in was nothing like the dingy hotel where she had struggled against Ethan. The bed was plush, the furniture modern and sleek.She glanced around the room, taking in the lavish decor—the silk curtains, the expensive art on the walls, and the faint scent of fresh flowers that filled the air. This was no ordinary hotel room; it was a suite fit f

Aria's heart pounded as she stood frozen in place, expecting the worst. She was certain she had been caught, her disguise as a maid failing her. But when she turned around, it wasn't the bodyguards glaring at her—it was the butler, Mr. Grayson. His stern yet composed expression briefly unsettled her before he spoke, his voice firm and unyielding."You two," Mr. Grayson said, pointing at Aria and the other maid she had bumped into. "The lady of the house has been waiting for assistance in the courtyard. Do not keep her waiting any longer."Relieved but cautious, Aria nodded and quickly followed the other maid, her mind racing with questions. She had narrowly escaped suspicion, but she wasn't safe yet. As they reached the sunlit courtyard, Aria's eyes immediately fell on an elderly woman seated gracefully on a plush chair surrounded by blooming flowers. The woman exuded an air of elegance and authority, her gray hair styled neatly, and her eyes sharp with wisdom that only comes with age

"Aria, the adoptive daughter of Samuel," Alexander Sinclair said, his voice cold and unwavering as he glanced down at the folder spread open on his desk. "Your adoptive father is a known gambler. He owes a substantial amount of debt, forcing him to borrow money from several dangerous sources. To pay off those loans, you've had to work multiple jobs at once, barely scraping by."Aria felt a surge of anger rise within her, her hands balling into fists at her sides. She had been through enough—working long hours just to survive—yet here was this man, sitting behind his desk with an air of power, throwing her past in her face as if it were nothing."You investigated me," Aria spat, her eyes narrowing with frustration. "You had no right to dig into my life like that."Alexander met her gaze without flinching, his expression unreadable. "My grandmother likes you," he said, his voice smooth and measured. "She believes you're someone important from my past. Regardless of whether that's true,

Bound By Fate: The Billionaire's Contract BrideChapter 5: The Unforseen EncounterThe morning sun was gentle, casting a golden hue across the city,the sun filtered through the large windows as Aria sat in the passenger seat of Alexander's sleek black car, her fingers fidgeting with the hem of her blouse the material twisting between her fingers. She wasn't nervous, or so she told herself. After all, this wasn't a real marriage—it was just a contract. She couldn't believe how surreal her situation had become. Less than 48 hours ago, she had been running for her life from Ethan, and now she was on her way to the civil registry with Alexander Sinclair, one of the most powerful men in the country, to get a marriage certificate. She could barely catch her breathAlexander's eyes lingered on her for a moment before he returned his focus to the road. His expression was unreadable, calm, and calculated, just like always. The man was a mystery, wrapped in an enigma, and now she was bound to h

The hospital corridor felt endless as Aria walked down it, her mind still reeling from Grandma Sinclair’s words. Babies. The idea of being responsible for making someone else happy by giving them children hadn’t even crossed her mind when she signed the contract with Alexander. She signed up to be his fake wife, not to start a family. But how could she refuse Grandma Sinclair's innocent wish without raising suspicions?She was so caught up in her thoughts that she didn’t notice the presence of someone as she bumped into him in the hallway. “I’m so sorry,” she mumbled, raising her head—she froze. Her breath caught in her throat, her eyes widening as she looked into the cold, familiar face of the man standing before her.Her ex-fiancé..** Ethan.**She felt a hand clamp around her wrist and, before she could scream, she was dragged into an empty hospital ward.Aria gasped as she was slammed against the wall, her heart pounding wildly in her chest.Ethan was in hospital clothes, his head

Alexander and Lucas drove to the apartment they had rented for Aria, it wasn’t a long drive from the hospital. They arrived at the apartment, Harriet the manager handed over the keys to Lucas. “I hope Mrs Aria is okay?” Harriet asked. “Yeah. She is recovering just fine.” Lucas replied. He opened the door of the rented apartment. He moved around, putting the light luggage they had brought into the space. Alexander went straight for the room where Aria had barely unpacked her bag before the incident. He picked up one of her tops and held it to his nose. He smelt it and felt more comfortable, his migraine was still banging. He looked around the room, Lucas came in and wanted to help with Aria’s bag. “No, leave it. I’ll handle unpacking her stuff.” Alexander ordered. Lucas nodded and returned to the living room. Alexander smelt her top again and he wondered, why he felt like there was something off with Aria now. He knocked the thought out of his head.He unpacked some of her clothe

Alexander was still waiting for news from the doctors. He paced the entire waiting area, back and forth. Lucas arrived at the hospital and walked up to Alexander. “Young Master, the thugs have been booked for kidnap but they still can’t find Ethan sir.” Lucas said. “Lucas, I believe you know me too well, I do not accept excuses, make sure they find Ethan even if it takes hiring private investigators. He can’t be that hard to miss, we need to figure out who else was involved in this.” “Yes, young master. I’ll make sure of it.” Lucas said as he brought out his phone to make some calls. The doctor came out at this point, walking straight to Alexander. “She’s doing okay. She’s in stable condition. She was beaten up a bit but thankfully she had no internal injuries from the beating and she’ll be fine. We would advise though that she get some rest, a couple of days in the hospital. That way we can monitor her and make sure that she’s good. The police said she’s in an active investigatio

The hospital room was stuffy with gifts, word had gotten round about Janet’s ‘health’ scare. Janet sat at the edge of her bed, she was looking through the cards of people sending their love. Her sister Mandy sat beside her, she was glancing at her watch, obviously impatient. Her jaw was shut tight in anger. She didn’t like wasting time with things. The door creaked open slowly and the doctor stepped, he was holding a folder with test results. His face was calm but cautious, as he knew he was in the presence of another Doctor. A renowned one at that, he had to choose his words carefully. “Well, good morning ma’am.” He said then be flipped open the folder. “How was your night? I hope you weren’t having any more chest pains?” He asked Janet. “No, I think I’m feeling better but it seems like the chest pains come and go.” Janet said, looking at her sister. “Alright.

As soon as the police officers took over the motel, Alexander and Lucas followed in. There was no way that Alexander would let them rescue his Aria when he wasn’t there. He clenched his fists, forcing himself to steady his emotions. He knew Aria was here but he hoped she was in one piece and hadn’t been harmed. They had grabbed both goons already and they were about to go into the room. As the officers forced down the door with a swift kick. The door landed weakly. Inside the room, what Alexander saw was even worse than he imagined. He noticed Aria in a chair, tied, her face was bruised and her lips swollen, a piece of cloth over her face. She was unconscious. But the sound of people rushing into the room roused her and she slowly looked around, he could see tears filling her eyes. Alexander rushed to her side and held her as an officer cut through her restraints. He froze as he held her, something felt off in his heart. She whimpered in pain and he removed the cloth from her mouth

Dr. Hensley knew exactly what he needed to do now, wait for the one thug who had accompanied Aria to arrive but he had to make sure that the other one didn’t suspect that he had ratted out the rest of their team’s location to the police.He heard the chime of his phone, he quickly checked the notification. Aria had arrived on the private dock, their only means of transporting an unconscious individual was to disguise as a fake ambulance. As the fake ambulance came through, he went outside in preparation. The goon brought in Aria, Dr. Hensley almost did a dance in joy. He immediately got in his element. The goon pushed in the gurney, “I sent the others a text but I haven’t heard back from them. You might want to alert them that the cargo is already here.” He told Dr. Hensley. Dr. Hensley simply nodded and told him he would do that but he had to stick to the plan and leave with the ambulance quickly. As soon as the ambulance left the location, Dr. Hensley locked down the laboratory.

Ethan ran as fast as his legs could carry him, he was definitely not going to jail. He really hoped that he could spin this in a way that he’d still get his money. By the time he realized he had reached the ranch, he knew he was in trouble. His luggage was in that room, his passport and every other thing. There was no way that the police would not find out he was involved even if none of the others ratted out on him. All he had was his phone, he had to find a ride to the bus station and get a ticket before they got him. He got into the ranch, wondering what tactics he would use to get a ride to the bus station. He had just a few bucks in his pocket. Not sure if it was enough for the fare to the bus station. Ethan saw one of the farmers on the ranch, he looked around cautiously. His heartbeat was thudding so loudly in his ears, fear has enveloped him. He approached the old man, who was bent over a stack of hay and didn’t even notice Ethan lurking around. It wasn’t until a dog began

“Let me see,” he stretched his hands for the phone. He focused on the screen despite the headache, there was Aria coming in with a bottle of juice and her purse. She had tried to look into the guard office but she didn’t find anyone there so she went in, the video showed the time. There was no footage of her going out. Alexander clicked the link to the footage from the second gate, this one showed nothing from the timeline that Aria entered the cemetery then there was a black c pulled close to the gate. Three men in black came down, the first one he couldn’t quite see his face but he had a feeling that it was Ethan. The other two, he had no idea who they were but he knew they were thugs. They went in and after about five minutes. They came out with Aria and stuffed her in the back of the truck but Aria looked unconscious. “Damn it, they have her.” Alexander said. The driver seemed to speed up the vehicle, Lucas collected his phone and watched the video over and over again. Trying t
