Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Make things right
Alexis's POV I watched, all of the discussions, a hand draped across my wife's waist as I listened to her interaction with Samantha who obviously had lost what I would have termed as shame. One would have thought that being caught on camera would have them standing back and staying out of the public but I guess you can't beat the shameless. She looked like she was going to lurge toward my wife and I waited for her to do so, I wasn't going to fight but I knew Nortia was no pushover either. She might have been before me but not anymore. Now, she was a woman of herself, one who could handle them by herself needing little or no help from me. “What did you just say?” Maxwell was the one who had asked while Samantha's eyes fell to the ground before she held Maxwell's. “She killed who?” “George” Nortia's voice reverberated, bouncing off against the wall as she repeated, her lips curled into a smirk. Maxwell's face flinched before he turned to Samantha demanding. “You killed him? Not

Nortia's POVThose words, the one where he had urged me to go ahead and conquer was something I hadn't been told, I knew everything about him felt so different. It was difficult to place my hand on these emotions, the different ones that filled my mind but I nodded anyway, listening to what he was saying. I guess this was what it meant to have a father, that space in you that outweighs every single thing, I was tempted to have him in my arms, let him yank me into his while patting my back, and as hard as I tried, I couldn't make the move to do so, so when he approached, grasping me closer to himself, my hand fell limp by my side. “ Thank you” I mouthed out in gratitude, chewing on my lips before I added. “Father” He yanked me away immediately, placing tender kisses on my forehead before he looked above my shoulders. “Will you be going with her?” He directed at Alexis. “ No, I can handle this myself. He has a company to tend to and I wouldn't want to disrupt anything” I explaine

Nortia's POV The glances on their faces told me they weren't expecting me and I knew that they had planned something else behind my back or rather, they were about to. Taking the seat just across from my uncle, I paid no heed to the scoffs and whispers as I did. My uncle gnashed his teeth beside me but that was only going to be the first, because I had numerous things in mind to make him pay for. Hopefully, my presence here will make things better. If he decided to do anything contrary to what I was expecting, I would have a great time thwarting whatever plan it was they had. “ Well” I glanced around, making sure everyone met my eyes before locking both hands together. “ What was it that you were talking about that had you chatting so amicably?” I threw it at them waiting for an answer but it seems they were all tongue tied. I didn't expect my uncle to change so soon, na, the devil will always have his spit and my uncle was no different, but even at that, I had expected him to ke

Nortia's POV I wasn't one to dig too deep but I knew I couldn't let this go, there had to be something that I had to do and whatever it was,I needed to do so fast. The gray color splashed on the wall of the office and the leather chair only confirmed what my uncle had said, I didn't have any power in there. I was relegated to the background and what had he called me? ‘A figurehead” A hand clasped around my mouth as I tried to muffle the cackle when my assistant walked in with bulks of documents which he dropped on the table. “ What's that?” I questioned, turning my attention to look at what it was when he glanced at the folders, the manilla files that filled the table. “ These?” He glanced at them before storming out without giving me an answer. I tapped my feet on the marble tiles thinking of how I was to take this in when my eyes caught the manilla file which contained financial reports of the previous year. I tried to keep my hands to myself but damned it on the second tho

Nortia's POVMy life on the line? I held a snort at what I had just heard, wanting to make sure it had been a mistake because it had to be that as there was no way he would have been right. I know I hadn't gotten the time to gloss through, but even at that, I didn't expect that there would be anything in there which would put my life at risk. I wasn't going to lie, goosebumps trailed my arms but I kept my thoughts back down, not wanting them to come up. The ones that I would be ruining things before I even started or rather before we even started. “Where did you get this?” Alexis asked again, this time his voice firmer than the last, he was putting it back into my bag, still looking around like he was trying to make sure that no one was looking and no one had noticed. “ I am fine” I assured, not wanting to look at what was going on, it was all too natural to me. I had seen it and had taken it because I knew it would be vital which also wasn't enough reason for him to act this way

Alexis's POV I could tell by the way she glanced at me that all she was thinking about was how I must have messed up when I haven't even done such a thing. A sigh left my lips as I made to touch her shoulders which she evaded, taking a step backward. It hadn't even gotten to that yet. “ I'm listening” she whistled, hands tucked behind her as she did so. “ Say what you intended to say,” she added, still waiting. “ It's nothing big, your phone” I could tell by how the light kept going off that she must be having countless messages at the moment, I had seen her take pictures of the decorations and the flower bouquet and she must have posted it. It had been no biggie as I had seen it online, seen how most Ladies swooned over it and I thought I should do the same and when her eyes glowed, I knew I had made the right choice. “ What is it about her?” She pulled me out of my reverie, bringing me back to the issue at hand. “ You said something about Charity?”“ You haven't seen it yet?
Last Updated : 2025-03-14Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Ring a bell
Alexis's POVMy feet glided across the pathway, eyes heavy as I sauntered through waiting to know what exactly had prompted such a behavior. My father wants one who will do something as such, he wasn't one to take action impromptu, and as such I needed to know why he had done so. My feet halted just across the driveway where he stood, a back against me. “ What do you want? What have you over here and at such an ungodly hour?”“ You sold our shares?” “ Did I?” He turned to me, his face blank while he was mute. “ Don't you know what is happening? You ought to have known about it, the shareholders, you really have no clue about it?”A heave left his lips, so deep that I heard him before I bridged the gap between us. “ I didn't even know that he would do such, your uncle wanted it and he came to me and…”“ He sold it?”“ He did” I could tell the regret that laced his lips, the one that made him wish he hadn't been so soft toward his family, the one who he had gotten from getting mar

Nortia's POV The look on Alexis face told me he hadn't been expecting me, but I couldn't just stand by and watch them take what was precious to him. “ Nortia” he called out, his face curved into a frown which wasn't supposed to be there. “What are you doing here?”“ Is that the gratitude I get for saving you?’’ my hands went underneath my chest as I waited for him to speak up because it wasn't what I was expecting. I had expected that he would say how grateful he was to see me and how he was glad that I had helped the company. It didn't seem fair that he would do all of that for mine and in turn, I wouldn't be able to do anything for his. It was so out of place and I was glad that I had done this. Everyone had walked out, with some grumbling while others mumbling words which I would take as disgust as they sauntered out almost glaring at me. “ What are you doing here?” He asked again, stunning me further than he already did. “Why aren't you saying a word? You didn't tell me an

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
