Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman A smoker
Alexis's POVWords failed me at that moment because I knew she was trying so hard to hide the tears that were on her face. I held onto her arms which she flung away, tension hummed above us while I tried to calm everything down. “ Get away from me!” She screamed before breaking off into a race, one that had me running after her as well as I cussed. “ Nortia” I called out, listening to her footsteps as she raced out. I knew the paparazzi were out there and it wasn't going to take any more time before she got out there with everyone wanting to take pictures of the moment which they wouldn't be expecting. “ What do you think is going to happen if you step out right now? Please stop!” I begged, still looking around as I tried to get her to stop. A hand around her arm had her turning around as she screamed at me. “ What! What do you want?” “ Please get in” I begged, almost at wit's end as I did so. “I was transparent from the start, I never lied and I told you all that you wanted

Nortia's POV My hand tightened around the file while Alexis drove home, my heart thudding so fast as well. I couldn't wait to get back just to open this up but a side of me couldn't help but contemplate on what exactly would happen if it turned out it was more than what I was expecting, if I would be able to handle the consequences of insisting on seeing in even when any wise person will do everything not to open up past baggage. When Alexis drove in, coming to a halt in front of the house, I slipped out, sauntering out before he could rush after me. “ Nortia” he called behind me as my footsteps raced up the stairs, not stopping to take a glance at him, I stomped up the stairs, slamming the door behind me. Leaning against the door when I had the door knotted properly, I held a hand to my heart grazing the edges of the invitation card which I had received. Was it going to be bad if I say I felt a bit hurt seeing the invitation card? I know I wasn't supposed to be but I was unabl

Nortia's POVI was calm by the time we walked down the stairs when his mother was right outside the door, bringing it up wouldn't be that hard,but the words didn't fall out right when I saw her. “ Nortia, you have to know that I never meant what had happened, and I mean it, Charity had done so on her own accord and I had no hands in it” she explained before I could say a word. A little smile lit up at the edge of my face at what she just said. “ It's fine, I really don't hold anything against you”“ Your head, how do you feel now? Do I need to call the doctor or sort?”I shook my head giving her the answer which was the best at the moment, aside from a little tug I was fine “ I have something I would like to know” “ What is it?” Worry etched her brow as she turned to Alexis who stood by my side, I thought he had work to attend to so why was he here?“ I know it might have been long but I just wanted to know if my mother had at any point in time talked to you about her lawyer, or

Alexis's POV The mood had been soured since the very day her uncle had told Nortia that, it had come off as a shock to her but not to me because I knew how the business world works and I also knew he must have something up his sleeves and he would have done everything to make sure the company kept being his. I dragged in a breath, trying to keep calm as I waited for Nortia to walk in through the door. It was taking more time than it should, but I also knew she had to look the part and her best as well. The part where she was both my wife and she was showing off to Samantha that she was better than she could ever be. I wasn't disputing that, as she was always going to be the best to me and that wasn't going to change in anyways. The little scrambles up the steps told me she was approaching and I found myself holding up my breath as I waited for her to come down, each step taking so much more time than the last. I grasped my hand into a ball, waiting for her to come outright and w

Nortia's POV Going with her was always going to be something I shouldn't do but I threw myself to caution, not caring about whatever she was going to do. She wouldn't hurt me, I knew that much and that was because Alexis was here with me and just touching me would get him erratic and she wouldn't want to see what his wrath would be. Losing her hold from around my wrist, I let her tug me into the room, enclosed in a space that had just us both in it, I swallowed, looking at her while waiting for her to say what was in her mind. She glared at me, eyes fixated at me before she threw her head back. “ What do you think you are doing? Or rather Alexis is doing?”“ What do you mean?” I feigned pretence, raising my shoulders to show that. “ Are you really toying with me right now? Is this some sort of way to get back at me? Or rather your uncle because of what you found? Samantha was wrong to have given you that, as it doesn't mean anything or would change anything”I sneered, my lips c

Nortia's POV The gaze I earned and the tugging of my sleeves by her mother told me they got exactly what I had just said, I pondered on why exactly she had that look on her face, was she going to act as though she didn't know tha also? Her husband knew, so the possibility of her knowing it was huge as well, it wouldn't be shocking to know that maybe she had been the one who had connived with her daughter to make that happen, anything to get the man even when the man wasn't going to take much to get. It seemed the shock had finally fallen off Maxwell's face because he asked;“ What did you just say?” He had wriggled his hand away from Samantha whose face had muddled into a frown. If we were nice to each other, maybe I would have extended her a handkerchief but she didn't even deserve that at the moment.“ Oh please” I waved him off, beginning to get annoyed. “ Don't tell me you were such a fool, I mean it was all over there, she knew and I don't know how she was going to birth her

Nortia's POV My eyes had tears in it at what I had just heard, words failed me at the moment while I tried to come up with the words that hung in my lips. “ Nortia” Nana held me so tight, squeezing my hand so tight at the words I had just been told. “ Your parents are finally up, your prayers have finally been answered, your parents are up” she uttered, her words faltered while she held me to herself. “ You should go with your husband, I know how long it has been and how it is what you have always wanted, go with him”I didn't move an inch trying to make sure that I wouldn't be overwhelmed with this, while I tried to come up with what I will say if I get there to meet them. I wasn't sure the words I would say, or how I would say them because it had been years, going home to someone was different from tending to them for years, tending to them didn't involve them speaking to me but this time it would be different. They will be able to talk to me and they will call me by my name, i

Alexis's POV “Fuck” I cussed when a figure which I knew was Nortia breezed past me in tears,the gown she had on sweeping the ground as she did so. “ Nortia” I screamed after her, my feet moving in a sprint after her, but she sprinted down making her way out of the duplex. Grasping her by the hand I turned her around, forcing her to take a look at me. “ What is wrong? Why did you stomp off like that?”She panted, tears cascading down her cheek as she did so. “ I want to leave” she explained, trying to get my hands off her but I held onto it. Where was the confidence I thought she had gotten? What was this sudden change for and why was she acting this way?I searched into her eyes wanting to know but she threw her head aside, the tears coming down in torrent. “ She…my parents, I don't think I can face them, I prepared for this moment, waited to see what it was going to be like, but now …I can't even say anything, I don't know what to say, all I feel is guilt”“ Nortia” I held her

Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Split
Nortia's POVGenevieve was at the door immediately the word slipped out, tapping on it. I could tell how glad she was at what had just happened and I couldn't wait to go out to let her know. Slipping the test kit in-between my palm, I pulled the door open, when she stood in front of me. “ You are pregnant?” I could sense the hesitation in her tone, the one that wasn't there when she told me to confirm. “ Will it be bad if I say I am?” “ How exactly will that be bad? It will change everything, every single thing, it will. Life will be meaningful again, it will be worth living again” “ Ahaha” I let out, trying not to show that her words have been off in a way because she had said something about life being meaningful again.“ What do you mean by it will change everything? Is there something I don't know about?” It seems I was kept in the dark about something everyone else knew but I didn't have any idea about. “ No, of course not. Why would you even think that? All I am saying i
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Someone is knocked up
Nortia's POV Another day went by and Alexis was nowhere to be found, with each day that ran past, I was left thinking about my actions and his as well. Reaching him has been impossible as all the calls bounced back to me with an excuse of him working. I would have gotten his mother to talk to him, but I knew it would make matters worse than it already was so I clung onto that one part of me that believed he was busy and maybe when he is done, he will come back to me. Even when it was difficult to think about it that way, I shove away the thought that accumulated which was all streamlined to him cheating on me, he wasn't a cheat, that was something I could attest to. He could be a whole lot of things but the man I was married to was not a cheat as he had proved it on countless occasions and I have been made to know what he would be capable of and what he wouldn't be capable of. When the bell had rung out announcing someone at the door, I shoved the pillowcase on my leg away bef
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Papers
Alexis's POV “Have you thought about what to do yet?” Getting out of the house has been hard to make but I have done so, stretching it into weeks. I have been trying to think about what exactly I was to do but every single thing came to a stop at the same point, that I had no business keeping Nortia with me. If I was to protect Genevieve, letting Nortia go was the only issue I was posed with and what I had to make sure happened “ Get the lawyer, it is difficult for me to do this, but I have to let her go” “ There have been requests to see you, most of which are from her and she sounds heartbroken” “ Pass them over” I instructed before flipping my head around as I reached for the landline while placing it against my ears. Nortia's voice came out fine at first but it ended up with her telling me about how her day went and when I will be back to see her, my hands clenched the phone as I wished that was going to be all. That just listening to this would have me running home but I
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Breaking
Alexis's POV My heart dipped while I watched her rush past, trying to get past me into the lift before she turned to me, her face lighting up with a smile before she exhaled. “ I loved how today ended, I will love to do this more often with you” “ We will’ I answered, just so she won't think anything was wrong judging by how quick she was to get that. “ Sure?” She turned to me, flipping her head to the side. “ Will you go with me more often? The next date is on me.” “ Nortia” my eyes clogged with crystal on it which I shoved away because she was doing every single thought to make me have a change of heart even when she had no idea what I had planned and it wasn't even helping. I had promised, to make sure she had no regrets, given her my words that I was the only one who will never hurt her, and had seen through to it, I have intended to see though to that to the very end but it seems I couldn't, things just didn't work out the way one wanted it. “What’s wrong? Your eyes, did
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Confrontation
Alexis's POV “Of course not” I answered, was that even possible? A life where I would be tired of her? Even if all she had to offer was her shenanigans, I was ready to go along with it all. I would bear it all as long as it meant her being by my side. I thought I was doing a good job, hiding my emotions and everything that I had to battle with. My mother had stomped after me wanting to know what had happened after Genevieve had burst into tears but I knew there was no way I could tell her, she would be as heartbroken as I was right now.“Why would you even think about that? How is it possible for me to get tired of you?” “ Then what do you want me to think?” Her lips parted as she questioned. “ I know you might take it as me overthinking, but I am not. I know you like the back of my palm, Alex. I do” “ And I am telling you everything is fine, you don't have to worry yourself about anything” She let out a sigh before turning to the side. “If that's what you are going to say, t
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman The problem
Nortia's POV I woke up to the bed empty, and cold, with Alexis nowhere to be found. Pushing myself up the bed, I searched around, calling his name to find out where he was but I got no answer. Sighing, I turned to the side,my reflection in the mirror as I did so. The dress I was to wear today hung by the side, a red gown to compliment my curves, one which ran straight to my knees and had a slit running up to my thighs. Hiding in a giggle, I selected a blue one for Alexis, one which I was so sure will work in tandem with his skin color.Pouting, I waited for him to walk in which was to no avail, letting out a rasp breath, a hand underneath my chin, I made my way to the window, flinging it wide open. We were supposed to have left earlier on,seeing how the sky had inked, I wondered if there was going to be any need. I was really looking forward to this, fiddling with my hands, I decided to take a shower, I felt sticky and stiff in a giggle, I did. The warm water aided in soothing my
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Next life
Alexis's POV While her chest heaved gently, signifying that she was asleep, I laid beside her watching the angel in human form which laid beside me, the one I could never bring myself to hurt. Her hair laid all about her, spread out as her lashes flustered at intervals, my hands hung up in the air while I tried to tap her just hard enough to wake her up, but I decided against it, it was better that I let her sleep rather than wake her up. Her chest still pinked from how intense it had been ,the memory of my hands clasped around her hair in a fist before it ran all the way to her throat while I slipped in and out of her had me biting into my lips.She had this way of making me feel like a child, every moment with her made me want to spend more time with her, and when she wasn't close to me, I felt suffocated and it was difficult to breathe. My phone ringing slashed through the air, grasping my hand around it. I watched her for a second before I placed it against my ear after slipp
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Aligned
Nortia's POVGiven how suspicious she was acting, I knew something was off, but I tried everything to get their mind off her as they walked away. I knew Alexis would want to pry in but she wouldn't want him to know about her partner yet, it wasn't time for him to do so, as she thought he wouldn't be pleased with him. “ Is something wrong?” He turned to me, wanting to know what I thought about what had just happened but I shook my head. “ She's fine. You don't have to bother yourself about that, I will talk to her and get to know what exactly is going on”He didn't seem pleased but he didn't say one more word as we stood waving them off. When their car was out of sight, he turned to me, grasping me around the waist as he led me in. “ Alexis” I tried to get him off when he stuck adamantly. “ I've missed you” he inhaled into my shoulders. “ What about me did you miss the most?” I wrapped both hands around his neck, yanking him closer to me. “When I saw you today, strapped to the
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Suspicious
Nortia's POV“ I'm fine” I kept assuring Genevieve who seemed to be extra clingy at the moment. “ Are you sure? Your face looks so off, and your hand, the straps, were they so painful? How about I take you to see the doctor?”“I have a band aid on, one you placed yourself, so why are you panicking this much?” “ I just want to be sure that you are fine, that's all, nothing else” she pouted before dropping to the couch, letting out an exhilarating sigh.“ Can't he be locked up or something? That was kidnapping and he is also the one who planted the bomb right? Isn't that enough reason?” I had flickered my gaze at her in an instant. “ You know who did it?” I haven't mentioned it since I stepped in here and I knew Alexis hadn't done so either so where had she gotten it from. Her lips parted in a gasp before she turned to her mother who looked just out of place like I was which meant she knew nothing about what she had just said. “How did you know who had done it, Genevieve?” “ Com
