Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman His wife
Nortia's POV I waited until he was gone before I sneaked out, almost racing down to the company because I knew they would be worried sick by now. This was a first for me, so I was so certain I was going to be cut some slack. Pulling the door open, my steps came to a halt when I stood in front of my cubicle but someone else was already seated, one who wasn't me. I swallowed down the lump in my throat while I managed to muster up the energy to ask. “ This is mine, why are you here?”A young girl gave me a smile before picking up an envelope. “ I was asked to hand you this in case you come in here” I snapped it open, my heart plummeting at what I saw.“ They can't…they just can't…” I whispered. I had worked so hard to get here, and I was supposed to be promoted, so why was I getting sacked?“ Who?” My grasp tightened around the envelope as I demanded an answer. “ It was here when I got in here with the instructions boldly written on it” I walked across the marble tiles, headin

Alexis's POV She went rigid against my arms, showing she wasn't expecting me, was that gratitude I see in those eyes? Her sister, who had forced herself up, had a smile on her face as she stared at me. Conjuring up a tone I knew wasn't real, she asked.“ And you are?” “Alexis Williams” “ Alexis Williams!” Her mother yelped out, before clasping a hand over her mouth. “ The Alexis Williams? Or…”I held out a hand at her. “ CEO Williams corporation” I added. “ I’m Samantha, and I'm Nortia's sister, the only one she has in this world” she beamed excitedly. I withdrew my hand, making sure she knew how it felt before she withdrew back into her shell. “ I guess you aren't a fan of handshakes then”I scoffed, I could see what she was doing, and she had lied. I had overheard her talking down on Nortia and anyone who talked down on my wife didn't deserve me speaking to them. “I am actually, but it is from the right person, it just turns out that you aren't the appropriate one” “ So

Alexis's POV That was pretty fast, I thought it would take weeks or almost days before she decided to show up here, but coming in here now was sudden and shocking as well. Shoving Gerald aside gently, I ordered. “ Bring her in,”My strides were powerful as I sauntered into my office, my hand caressed the ivory oak wood before sitting on the leather cushion as I waited for her to step in. Whatever perfume she had on assaulted my nostrils before she walked in, I cringed at how nauseating it was before her heels echoed in. They clicked on the tile, and she was dressed in a gown so skimpy that it left little imagination to anyone's eyes, but I wasn't anyone. If she thought this little act of hers was going to make me fall for her then she hadn't done any research on me in the first place. She took her seat just opposite me, pushing up her cleavages properly. “ So why are you here?” I asked when she was seated, finger running on the keyboard as I tapped on it.I could get my secret

Nortia's POV My hands clenched the phone while I thought about how exactly I was going to bring up this to him. My eyes stared at the message, the font glaring at me. Bring your husband home tomorrow, I will be at home waiting. That was from my uncle, and I knew he must have heard it from Samantha and my aunty. I knew it wasn't going to be that long before I got his message about this, but it was so fast. I sat on the bed, staring at the ceiling while I tried to come up with a solution, one that involved Alexis coming with me despite how busy he might be. I sat upright when my phone rang out, before a voice spoke out. “Come down” his velvety smooth voice rumbled across, jabbing me in my heart.I stood up quickly, taking a proper look in a mirror just to ascertain if I was perfect, I had to look the part. My hands clenched the lip gloss as I ran it over my lips and when I was sure it looked perfect, I raced out, my feet glided across. “ You came out pretty fast, were you wait

Nortia's POV I was dumbfounded at the words he had just said while hoping that I had heard wrong, it could be anyone but not him. Not my uncle as well. For a moment I had thought that he was different and that there was no way that he would say such a thing, he wouldn't stop me from taking my parents from the hospital. My brows kissed as I asked, wanting to be sure that I had heard him correctly at first. “ What did you just say?” I questioned. “ There is no way you can take them out of the hospital, Nortia. I can't let that happen, you have to do whatever it is that you want to here and….” His gaze flickered to Alexis who stood beside me, his hand resting on my lower back as he tried to show his support. “Why?” I demanded, wanting to know. “ Is there a reason why you don't want me to take my parents out of here? They are mine, not yours. Like I told you, the drugs that have been administered to them all these years turned out to be fake and we have to take them out before it w

Alexis's POV It wasn't clear to me why seeing her broken made my heart ache, I had never felt this way before, it was so different from all others, no matter how hard I tried to shove that aside, it stuck persistently. I had barely placed a foot out of the doctor's office when I noticed she was nowhere to be found, a curse left my lips as I sauntered down as fast I could, my heart slammed so hard against my chest as I tried to find out where she could be. I racked my head for an answer and everything led to the fact that she might have gone after her uncle. Weaving a hand through my hair, I raced down, barely able to catch my breath when rage coursed through me. She was pinned against the car, tears cascading down her face and she could barely move an inch. Gulping down my spittle, I sprinted down breaking into a race as I shoved him off before slipping her behind me. “ What the hell do you think you are doing?!” I demanded. If he had done this to anyone else, I wouldn't have

Nortia's POV No one has done what he did for me. I sat speechless, staring at him while fighting the urge to shed those tears that clung to my throat because it was so different, so different from what I had been expecting. “ Why?” I asked, emotions clinging to my throat as I did. Shoving down the tears that attempted to walk up my eyes, I questioned. “ What did I do that you would do something like that for me?”I hated that I kept comparing him to Maxwell but he was the only one I had been with, the one who had shown me love in such a way that I never knew would be possible, claimed to have loved me but had hurt me beyond repair. I let his hands slip underneath my hair, he held a finger over my face, running it gently as a smile crested across his face at me. “ Because you are my wife, Nortia,” he answered. I gulped in, nodding my head while fiddling with my fingers. That had to be it, what exactly was I thinking about? That he would love me? It was too soon, and besides no o

Alexis's POV With the statistics I was holding, I knew that there was something that wasn't right, and the fact that even though I had taken them out, it was going to take much more than that for them to be fine, showed how much damage the drugs had done already. It would take a lot of work, and a lot of effort to revert what had been done. I didn't know the amount of damage that had been done, but I was positive, I wanted to make sure that they were fine at the end of the day “ Can there be anything that can be done?” Nortia's voice came through, puncturing my thoughts. My gaze went to her, her hands shaking as she waited for an answer. I knew the doctor was trying so hard not to give her an answer that would break her heart but what was the need of doing so when he had even done what? He had given her the bad news outright without considering if she would be able to take it. “ I can't really say, but it might take some time” he answered her A puff left her lips when he said

Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Blank cheque
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
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Meeting the in law
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
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
