“Bella’s POV”
My feet take me out of our house as if they had their own mind when Gillian comes in and hugs my husband in front of me. My thoughts continue reliving that irritating scenario and the news I've read about him on the internet in my brain, making my heart quiver and my chest tighten... My mind is racing with ideas...
As I let my feet pull my body down the stairs, I placed my hand on the top left corner of my chest and pinch it. My knee weakens, forcing me to sit on the stairwell step and look blankly.
Why did I leave them? I shouldn’t leave the two of them to do something disgusting and after all, that is still my home. I had the courage to stand and walk back there but as I enter and steps my feet inside, I realized a lot of things as I…
I caught him…
Holding her arms, his body is clos
The previous Anastasia, who was happy, humorous, and upbeat, is now anxiously gazing at her oldest son's deadpan face; she's been frowning at him since she stepped into his office.“What exactly are you doing here?” He inquires coldly, his attention fixed on the computer screen this time.Mrs. Wright walks closer to him, angrily banging his desk to get his attention, saying, "Are you insane?! Aren't you embarrassed by your wife, and you even dare to hire that woman as your secretary?!?” she shouted, pointing at the direction of Gillian.“Mum. Relax! “I simply hired her; I'm not marrying her,” he replied gently.“Ezekiel Richard Wright!!!!” I'm not joking when I say this; I'm serious. Bella is a good woman, she only let that news slip and trusts you, but what are you doing hiring this woman who created such rumors?!” his mother nags him fiercely.
Her eyes were filled with unease as she escorted him out of the building. As the guy she was trying to lift coughed, she hurriedly asked her husband's assistant to take him in the car.Luke didn't close the car door and waited for her to come and sit next to his boss. When she turned around when he was seated, he coughed nonstop. "Take him to the nearest hospital instantly," she ordered."But, ma'am, I'm afraid Mr. Kiel won't be able to make it," he replies nervously, Ezekiel glaring at him as Bella turns to him, "What do you mean by that? It's only a cough, "she said, but she was worried about him."It had happened to him previously, but he refused to let anybody send him to the hospital. He—he stayed at home for approximately a week, "he says," and I'm sure if that happens again, you'll need to be there to accompany him, "he adds.She sluggishly gets into the car a
"Bella’s POV""Yes, I am."I was expecting him to say those words, but instead, a mischievous grin had formed on his lips."Why should I be jealous?" he wonders."I know that," I said as I exited the place. I knew he'd been following me all the way out of the restaurant, but I ignored him."Are you sure you don't want to eat with me?" That's what I heard him say."It doesn't concern you, so please stop bothering me," I explained. His fingers gripped my arm."What are you planning to do again this time?" I complained.
"What?!!!" She screamed. "I had no idea she had duplicate keys," he acknowledged solemnly. She picked up the pillow from the floor and placed it on her lap, pouting her lips and in deep thought. Ezekiel saw she was distressed and sat on the bed facing her, staring into her eyes. "What?" She's irritated this time; she disdains it when he looks at her like that, and she knows he never looks her in the eyes the way he looks Gillian in the eyes. "Stop looking at me! I'm not interested in you, "she stated flatly. Anastasia was exposed as the door was pushed open. Fortunately, Ezekiel was quick to act, cupping his wife's face with his hands, making Bella's pulse skip a beat. "What are you doing?!" she protested in a weak tone. "Mom is here," he said as he composed his grin for her. She realized he was attempting to deceive
"Are you trying to use it as an excuse to approach me?"Julia was expecting to hear that from him, but the man simply smiled and thanked her, as if he never knew how to be furious with anyone.She admits that this man's grin is somehow familiar to her and that she feels linked to him.When he unintentionally touched her hands while handing him the notebook, she felt an electric charge run through her body. She instantly snatched her hand away and warned, "Next time, be more careful with your belongings."She didn't wait for his response and turned around, waving her hand, without looking at him. When he saw her go away, he felt a twinge in his heart."Sir Matthew, you're going to be late," his driver said, and he nodded and entered."Why do I feel such chest ache and grief when I see her? But I didn't feel that when I talked to her an hour ago, "he thinks to himself."Sir, should
He had been observing every move she made from the time she stepped her feet inside his office. He could tell that her eyes were saying a lot of things that her mouth couldn’t say.He was expecting her to open her mouth to yell or complain at him after seeing Gillian seducing him, but he saw how her eyes narrowed and irritably turned around as if she was giving his secretary permission to do something malicious behind her back.Ezekiel couldn’t help how heartless his wife was for ignoring what she caught. That made him shout at his secretary to get out of his office. He has been confused lately since Gillian came back into his life.He resented Bella from the beginning, but ever since he married her, he has had an unexplainable desire to protect her from danger. However, he does not sense his wife's care for him, and she consistently makes him feel unimportant despite his gen
Luke noticed Mr. Wright leaning sluggishly on his chair, his arm on the armrest, and smiling in a daze, so he cleared his throat and knocked on the door.Ezekiel turned to face his assistant and said, "Come in." He entered the room, facing him, and placed the black paper bag on his desk.“Sir, Mrs. Wright told me to give this to you,” Luke informs him, taking a proper seat and peering inside the bag before returning his gaze to Luke, “I'm not a kid anymore, she doesn't need to worry about me,” he complains.“I mean, sir, Mrs. Wright—-your wife,” he clarifies.“You may leave,” he says to his assistant, he never expected that she will send him a coat to replace the coat he lent to her, he sighs saying, “at least you have a heart.”He's joyfully swaying the swivel with his foot on the ground. “Is she truly nice
Bella stepped on his foot hard, causing him to scream in pain, "ahhhhhhhhhhhh!" He jumps up and down while raising his knees. "What happened to you, Zeke?" Anastasia asks her son. She was concerned seeing his cheeks and ears getting crimson. He extends his legs and places them on the ground. "Nothing, mum," he replies nonchalantly as he walks into his room. Their gazes follow him as he goes, and they exchange glances and laughs. "What exactly did you do to him?" Anastasia inquires cheerfully about her daughter-in-law. "I'm simply teaching him a lesson," she replied with a smile. "Please don't be too harsh on my son. Even though he is distant, he still has a kind heart "Bella nods as she speaks to her in hushed tones. Ezekiel almost shrieked in agony as he shut the door. "That woman is making me lose my patience, but she’s quite strong. No wo
