Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Too good for him.
Nortia's POV The words I had just heard reverberated in my ear, I had placed a palm against the door wanting to confront my aunt because that had been her voice I had just heard when someone said.“ She tried, she went to his office and he chased her off, didn't she tell you that? There is no way he would want her, Alexis wouldn't want someone like her” A slap resonated through the air before a voice came up, rage coating every inch. “There is nothing that will be too hard for her to do, we have to do that, her father wants her with him and she doesn't have a choice, he is a better choice than Maxwell and we are getting him, and that's final” My appetite was ruined in an instance, to think that I had put up my hopes too high and had actually thought they wanted me back but this wasn't for me, my uncle had done this for Samantha so she would be with Alexis, but Maxwell was here also, how was that going to be possible?I couldn't get off the thoughts that Alexis hadn't said a word t

Alexis's POVNortia was taking longer than I had expected she would take, I was tempted to walk out and search for her especially with Maxwell out of here and I didn't know what he would be doing right now. He might be with her but I didn't want to believe he would hurt her, I trusted Nortia but it was him who I didn't trust. I didn't know what he was capable of doing and I really wanted to believe that he would heed my warning, the first one I had given him. “ You know both of our companies work perfectly together, before the ruckus of course, which was all my fault and I am sorry for that” her uncle said. I nodded at what he had just said, listening but barely even as all of my focus was on the tiny curve which Nortia had walked through a minute ago. “It's fine. You have apologized countless times already and I hold nothing against you” He beamed, making gestures at the maids who walked in with a bucket of ice and a wine dipped in the midst of it. “ I hope you will take this a

Alexis's POV “ What happened?” Nortia wanted to know when I stepped out, the house forgotten behind us. I didn't want to bring up the talk that they had given Samantha to me, for a start, it was mainly because I didn't know how she was going to feel about it and it would be best if I didn't. Also, it was going to prolong talks and when they did, it would be best if I really stayed out of it, I didn't want to hurt her feelings. “ It's nothing,” I explained, taking my position behind the wheel, while still fuming in rage at what I had just heard. I guessed I should be expecting it but I thought they would have some sort of respect for Maxwell as he was in the same space with them and being in the same space as them meant a lot. “Alexis” she called out suddenly, startling me. “ You are driving, if something is wrong then you should talk to me about it, I deserve to know since I brought you here in the first place” I shook my head at her, worried that I had made her feel tense in a

Nortia's POV I wasn't expecting what I had just been told and although it had come as a surprise to me, I knew it was the perfect opportunity I had been waiting for. The one where I would be able to take not just Maxwell, but Samantha down as well. I couldn't help but stop my grin at the thought of how devastated they will be when they find out the truth, that they had both been lying to each other. I was tempted to shed tears on Samantha's behalf because I would make sure they were wedded first before I said a word to either of them.The scorching gaze staring at me had me flicking my head over at Alexis whose eyes had never left mine, instead it burnt with vigor while he looked at me. “ So what is the plan?” I could notice the look on his face which didn't settle well with me so I asked.“ Is there a problem?” There was a scowl etched on his face, one which I knew I had just seen because it wasn't even there in the first place. “ You don't have to worry about it” he tried to ge

Nortia's POV My heart took a dip at what I had just been told as I tried to fathom if I had heard correctly. The man suited his black kept his hands pointed at the black Rolls Royce ushering me toward it “ I am sorry, but I don't know anyone and I am not obligated to go with someone I don't know” I answered, biting on my lips because I knew that was a lie.I knew that it wasn't even that, the man in there has to be Alexis' father because he had called the name, Mr. Williams and it caused chills to run down my spine at what I had just been told.Being unable to fathom what he was asking after me for, because i knew there was no way it would be because he wanted to know me, if he wanted to know about me or needed an introduction, then he would have sent for I and Alexis, but this was about just me because he was here for me. I swallowed, trying to get the lump on my throat back down but it stuck adamantly, passer-by watched but no one was bored to interfere, who would want to do so w

Alexis's POVMy finger came to a halt on the keypad they had been running on at the words I had just been told. “ What did you just say?” I questioned, pulling back the chair to take a look at the guard who was standing in front of me, when she was supposed to be with my wife right now. “ I know I made a vow not to say a word to you about it to you father, but I couldn't keep it to myself, I had to say something”“ My father met with Nortia?”Wasn't that too much and out of it? I hadn't told her about my father not accepting her which was something I had done wrong, but it was too late to have regrets right about now. “ What did he say? What about her? How was her reaction? Is she okay?” My words ran out as I waited to know. “ Is she okay?” “ I think so because on a contrary to what we were expecting, your father stepped out fuming in anger while she had a smile on her face”It was hard to believe that it had happened, that she had left that way, my father was too much for me to

Nortia's POVI didn't know how it had been possible for me to keep my cool but I knew I had done a very good job because I had left with a smile while his face held a poker as I sauntered off. A sigh left my lips while I gazed right outside, I was perplexed in a way because the restaurant that had been chosen was so close to my working place that I had thought about what anyone who knew me would say. I wasn't one who was one to talk, as I kept to myself a lot but even at that, I knew humans and they were always one to talk, I hoped that no one would be able to get a whiff of what had happened, not even Alexis. I wasn't sure if he knew that his father didn't like me, if his father hadn't been vocal with it because what I had just seen had caught me off guard and I wanted to know if he didn't but I just couldn't walk into his office right about now. What would I say if I go in? There would be nothing for me to say and even if I did, it wouldn't make any sense at all. When the car ca

Nortia's POVMy hands held my phone swiping through it while I chuckled at what I had just been told, I guess being stupid ran through her veins and she didn't know what else to do aside poking her nose into what she shouldn't in the first place. “ I can see you have the mouth to talk, I am sure that you wouldn't when Alexis sees this and throw you out of the house”“You think so?” My tone rolled out relaxed, as I plopped down on the chair, appeased at the look on her face. “ I don't think so, I know so”I bobbed my head at the answer she had just given. “ If you know so,then you would have used the energy you used in talking in making sure that Maxwell doesn't get to know that you have never been pregnant, what do you think is going to happen if he get wind of it? It might be from me, might not be from me but…”Her eyes widened in fright before she questioned. “ How did you know? No one knew…it's just….unless it's Alexis, he told you?”“Wasn't he supposed to let me know? After yo

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
