Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Compensation
Nortia's POV When I had been told higher up, nothing had prepared me for the fact that the higher up might be my uncle. He was at the top of the chain and there was nothing that would bring him down here, I mean unless it was really important, and I knew by it being important didn't mean me coming late as well. The door slammed shut before he turned off the blinds, his face furious as he did so. I swallowed because I knew it was going to be tough before listening to him. “ I gave you an order, didn't I? I told you and I was firm when I said you shouldn't take your parents away, were you deaf?” His voice thundered. I guessed the people couldn't hear it because of the soundproofed door and wall but that would be his luck because he was outrightly making things worse. “All I want to know is why?” I demanded. “I mean it, I want to know why exactly you don't want me to do so, you didn't give me an answer, and I deserve not just one, but numerous ones as well, so when are you going t

Nortia's POV “ I am married, remember?” I reminded her. “No one really saw you both getting married so for all that we know, you aren't married, besides you had to give my father the right to be there, and there aren't any acknowledgement by his family as well, if indeed he was married, and to you at that, then his family would have announced it as well” I heaved deeply, I hadn't even thought about his family but I had taken it that they would accept me, had I thought too much?I thought Alexis would fill them in as well, since he said they had been pesting him repeatedly about it, but would it be any different if I told him to talk to them?What if they don't accept me? “ They don't just want to, what exactly do you want Samantha, you aren't even supposed to be here, don't you have work or something, why are you being in every single step that I take? You are becoming annoying”I couldn't hold it any longer. I needed to breathe and it just seemed like I wasn't doing that with th

Alexis's POV All I saw was red when I stepped in, I had left the office in such a good mood today that I didn't want to be anywhere else but close to my wife. I would have gone right back home but suddenly the idea of going back home didn't sit well with me. I didn't want to go back to an empty house where I just had my cook, cleaners and my housekeeper. I wanted something more. I needed Nortia's smile. I found myself wanting to see her face, the little lopsided smile all over and the blush that colored it especially since I had plans to tease her about her choice of panties.But nothing had prepared me for the fact that I would see the same doctor that I didn't like last night standing right there, touching her face, when had they gotten so close? Was it not just last night that she slept over? So what exactly was going on now? I shoved him aside so hard that it had him stumbling backwards. “ What do you think you are doing!” I barked at him demanding an answer. I had never be

Alexis POV I was trying to keep sane so as not to scare her off, I could be cruel toward anyone but not to her.Also, I knew that I had to get her to talk without getting her worried but what I had just heard about her uncle was enough to piss me off and I was trying so hard not to let that show. Keep her calm so as not to get her worked up. When she wrapped her hands around my waist, words got caught in my throat while I watched her keenly. She looked so small and yet so adorable that I didn't want anyone doing anything to her. I found myself not wanting anyone harming her as well as I was obligated to keep her safe, but was this all from obligation? This ache in me, the sudden jealousy when I had seen her with him, the young doctor.“ You will be assigned a driver and a bodyguard as well” I made that known to her. She pushed herself from my chest, blinking at me repeatedly before she said. “ Why? I don't think there is any need for you to do such, I mean, I have to keep thing

Nortia's POV I waited for him to give an answer while knowing that whatever it was that he had in mind wasn't going to be nice at all. I didn't want anything that would hurt him but I will be fine with showing him a lesson just so he wouldn't do it anymore. “ I wouldn't hurt him, but I will make sure he gets a punishment that will make him wish he is dead”“ Which is?” “ All the contracts he has with me or any of my affiliated companies,I am going to cancel them all”I gulped in, knowing that the company was meant to be mine from the start and any action he took now might affect me in the future. “ I know what you are thinking about,” he rested a palm on my cheek, massaging it gently. “ What is that?” “ That it will affect you, but it won't. You don't have to worry about it, I won't hurt you and that's it. I am going to make your uncle have regrets. You aren't in charge yet so you don't have to feel bad” He explained, I wanted to believe in his words, and in him because unlike
Last Updated : 2024-12-31Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Gave orders
Alexis's POV I knew from the moment I had seen her that way it had to be just someone who could make her that way. I knew it would take time for her to fall in love with me but I was really hoping that it would happen soon enough. I needed her to fall for me and I will do the same for her. My feelings were raging and although I was yet to come to them with what they were, I knew she caused them all. Being with her was the reason why I had gone through so much feeling all at once, most of which felt foreign to me .“ Alexis” she whispered my name as I slipped my tongue in between her lips, wanting and tasting her. She was everything that I was supposed to stay away from, the fruit which wasn't supposed to be mine or close to me but I found myself drawn to her every single time. My hand cupped her boobs as I tugged her up before letting her go, just enough for her to catch her breath, she stood panting before she dropped to the floor. “If you are this way just because we had som

Nortia's POV Just like Alexis had said, when I was awake, they were right out there waiting for me. He hadn't even taken so long to find them, I thought it would take some time to do so but it seemed I had been wrong.I didn't want to think about how exactly last night had gone because he had looked so pissed but I knew I couldn't just move in with him. He wouldn't be able to make me have a change of heart and it was going to take more than just a plea to make that happen. “ Let's go,” I said to them. The guard sat at the passenger seat while I had to sit at the back. I guessed he was trying to make sure that I didn't go with the doctor, he was trying to cut off my communication with him and I didn't know if that was jealousy as well. “We will be going shopping later in the day,” the guard announced to me. “Will you be chanced, madam?” “ I wouldn't be” I guessed I had to get used to being called this way, I didn't know what my coworkers would say and how they would look at me

Nortia's POV Amend? That was like the last thing I was expecting to hear and there was also no way I was going to believe that. I scoffed, making sure that it was loud enough for him to hear, I could see his fist clenched before I answered. “ The last thing I think you will do is make amends, I don't believe an iota of what you just said” Samantha had her hands underneath her boobs as she gazed at me, eyes piercing through me. “ I know what you are possibly going to say, but you should know as well that there is no way we are going to give you anything else aside that, beside…” her shoulders went in a shrug. “ We are being lenient with you, who exactly would be able to do that with you if it isn't us?”“Stop it” her father admonished, giving her a gentle nudge on the arm as he did so “ Nortia, I shouldn't have treated you in such a way and I have only realized my mistake now, and it wouldn't happen ever again” he apologized. I couldn't sense the sincerity in those words he had

Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Crash
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
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman A gem
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
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
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Curry favour
Nortia's POV I peeled off my hands in an instance because that had startled me. He was the last person I had thought would hold my hands. “ Sorry” he apologized, a smile flashed across his face as he did so. “ I didn't mean to make you feel that way, all I wanted to do was help you out, that's all” he explained, making me feel bad. “ It's fine. You don't have to do so. I know you had good intentions and I'm not holding it up against you” I let out a puff, still trying to calm the awkwardness when Alexis wrapped his arms around my waist. “ I will take it from here, thank you for doing what I was supposed to do” a smile curved the edge of his lips as he said that to my uncle who bobbed before stepping aside. “She’s yours” he let out a brief cackle before stepping back in. A sigh left my lips when he did that. “ I guess we might have mistaken his intention” I whispered at Alexis whose eyes were lurking around, like he was trying to fish out something that wasn't supposed to be th
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Husband
Alexis's POV “ Breathtaking” I breathed out underneath my nostrils as that was the only thing I could think about at the moment. The emerald green gown clung to her shape, showing every curves that I had never thought she had, curves that might have sprouted so soon that it was difficult to believe it had always been there. “ Really?” Her eyes sparked as she asked, still fumbling with the edges of her gown. I ate the gap between us, making sure she was in my arms before I tugged her closer. “ I am scared” “ Scared?”“ That someone else might see how pretty you are and take you from me”She gave a slight jab at my arms, while her face pinked. “ Are you ready to face your family now?” I was tempted to keep her in and locked in with her but I knew she had other important appointments which I couldn't keep her away from.“ How about we try making our baby now?” A finger ran up the length of her zipper before she smacked my hands, pulling it off. “ We have to go to my uncle and i
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Breathtaking
Nortia's POV A war? That was an exaggerated thing to say because I couldn't take that as a war, it was simply me going to the home which my parents had built for me but it had ended up being my uncle's. I let out a sigh, before whispering back. “ I will be back soon, I'm taking a shower”“ Should I join you? I am sure it will be much more better if I do”I clasped a hand over my lips at how sacrilegious that had sounded. “ I will be back,” I answered firmly. “ You stay right outside and wait for me, or you can go and work,I love money you know” the words were out before I could keep them back in. I chewed on my nails, wondering how exactly he had taken that, would he take me to be a golddigger? Not wanting to stay back and hear whatever he would say, I took steps away, hands on the door knob when his voice came through. “ Luckily for me, it isn't a problem, I have a whole lot of them and you can spend as much as you like”I muffled in a cackle at what he had just said before ste
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Glammed up
Nortia's POV He left me deep in thought as he walked up the stairs, with shoulders slouched as he did. I wondered what he had meant by that, but shoving it off my shoulders, I decided not to worry myself about that. I was going to take it as one of those words that he must have said because he had been thinking of countless things, which didn't have anything to do with me. “ By the way” he said as he turned to take a look at me. “ There is a bedside fridge in your room, but I guess it should be empty, I will have the housekeeper stock it up tomorrow” he gave a subtle nod before strolling off. Picking the items back into the first aid kit, I placed them in carefully, making sure that it wouldn't lead to any one of them shattering. With hands holding the cotton wool soaked with blood, I pondered on how tomorrow will go but on a second thought, I decided against it, it would be better if I let tomorrow worry about itself. *************An ache tore through me so persistently and n
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Tingled
Nortia's POV Falling asleep was taking more than I had expected, I didn't know why but I will be attributing that to the fact that I was in a new environment and so, I had to get used to it. I tossed again, before laying upright, looking at the ceiling, the net towered over me. I had been glad when he had said that, not minding the fact that he must have looked into things he wasn't supposed to, but a side of me wondered if it wasn't too early, and if I really deserved anything I was getting right now. A stroll down to the walk-in closet had shown me a different tale than what I was expecting, it was hard sort of to believe that they were for me. They fitted just right, in every single way like I had imagined, the slam of my heart told me I wasn't overthinking, that indeed they were mine and I was supposed to be glad about it, but I just couldn't help it What if I got used to leisure such as this and when we finally part well, I find it hard to cope? So I was having double thoug
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman A nobody
Alexis's POV “ You don't have to do this, you can't do this to me. You know who I am, you know who my family are and they aren't going to like this” A scoff left my lips at what he had just said before pushing him until he had his back against the wall, fidgeting against the chair. “ And you think that I will be scared? What exactly do you think will happen after what you did to Nortia, that I will pat you on the back for a job well done?” I was trying to keep my anger from escalating because all I wanted to do was strangle his neck until he was unable to take in air. I sniffed in, waiting for him to give an answer when the scent permeated the air. “ You peed on yourself? Are you even a man?” I held out a hand, accepting the taser which I had been given as I stroked across to him. “ It was wrong of me to do so, I shouldn't have done that in the first place, please don't ... .help me apologize to her, let her know that I'm sorry, it is the last time and it wouldn't happen anymo
