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

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

Nortia's POV“ You are joking, right?” Because there was nothing else she would say which would make me believe that she wasn't. “ Do I look like I am to you?” She questioned, a hand underneath her boobs. “ You are because there is no way you would be saying this if you were sane? Do you think you will get me to because of some measly file?” I questioned waiting for her to give an answer. Using Alexis at any chance she had was stupid, it was going to take something worse than that to get me to leave him, at least until I get the money I was promised and fulfill my part of the agreement. My heart tensed a bit when I thought about leaving my child behind after all of this. I was nothing more than a surrogate mother here, and I was supposed to adhere to the terms but it was suddenly hard for me to do so. What has changed?“ It is fine if you think it's measly, go about your job and I hope you know how much of a mistake you just made” I watched as she sauntered away,her heels clicked

Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Dirty deeds
Nortia's POVWatching the clips all over again was heart wrenching, I had thought I would be able to do so but doing so now, I knew it was almost impossible. It was all documented there, the time where Alexis had clung onto a pole, almost dropping before Gerald walked in, the CCTV footage had captured every single detail and with each clench to the pole, my heart dropped with it as well. I wondered what exactly would have made Maxwell gone to such length because I didn't want to believe I was the reason for such an action. “ Are you okay?” My mother questioned, draping a hand on my shoulders. With a smile lining my face, I turned to look at her, letting myself immerse in her love. “ I know it feels awkward having us around, you must have gotten used to doing life all alone but I am here to let you know that we can always work things out, we have missed a lot of time and your father is ready to make it up with I as well,”“I don't hold anything against you” I answered, making sure
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Plunge
Alexis's POV “ Took them just long enough to get here,” my father added, before waving the doctor off. “ Thank you doc, I will get my assistant to send across your money, with your tips of course, thank you” Showing gratitude for even the smallest of things was sometimes my father had taught me and had inculcated in me, no matter who it was he was addressing or talking to, he would always show gratitude. He had said it once that everyone was the same and just because we were privileged enough to get this didn't mean we were supposed to treat people like they don't matter and it hoped to do the same when I had kids. Kids with Nortia didn't sound like a bad idea even though that was what I had wanted from her initially, now I found myself wanting even more than just that.“ Let them in, how's the shares now?” “ Stabilizing,” I answered. “ Nothing works better than public opinion, once the public is by your side, you have gotten all that you wanted and that is what we are going t
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Press charges
Alexis's POV I waited, glancing at the clock, each tick resonating through the air as I waited for what was going to be their response. My father had the phone leaning against his ears, while I tried not to think about how infuriated my mother was going to be when she get to know what exactly had happened. He turned to me, looking hard at me before he uttered. “ He's fine, he is okay, there's no need to send the doctor over, he doesn't need it”“ I know that you will insist but he really doesn't need it” my father said again and it wasn't hard to tell that my mother was making sure I wasn't hurt in the slightest way.A smile hung on my face, I wasn't used to this, but I knew she cared, she had always cared and maybe, I wasn't too grown for her not to still be that way. Placing the phone back down on the table he turned to look at me. “ Your mother is worried and she insisted on sending the doctor anyways, I didn't have a say in this” he explained to which I bobbed alongside. “ I

Alexis's POV“ I have to work, Nortia” I insisted, keeping my lips tight while I evaded her questions. “ Alex, I want to know what happened that had you that way,” she insisted. I was at a loss while I tried to come up with something that she would believe in, but I let out a sigh instead, her eyes inquiring as I did so. “ Well?” She waited for me to say something before I finally did. “I went up there with Maxwell, and things happened, a scuffle actually and he shoved me off” Her eyes flew open into lightings at my words. “He shoved you off?” Her voice broke. “You don't have to worry about that, I am fine and nothing happened as well”“ That isn't it” she let out almost in tears. “Your company has been affected and I don't know what it's fate will be, how could he do something like that? How were you able to get out? Who helped you? What would I have done if anything happened to you? What would my parents say? What would have been everyone's reaction?” Grasping her to myself
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Dropped stock
Alexis's POV A gasp left my lips while I held onto the wretch iron still trying to make my way back up to the building when a hand stretched itself out at me. “Boss, it's Gerald” he screamed at me before holding a hand out to me. “ Gerald?” I questioned again, wanting to be sure that my ears weren't playing tricks on me because I couldn't recall if I had mentioned that he was to come here or had given him directives to come up here. “ Nortia, sorry your wife called me over panicking, she has left, but came back to find out you haven't left or placed a foot out and she said I should come back” My leg dropped down a bit before I held out a hand at him, letting him pull me up. When my back rested on the cold floor, I blinked repeatedly wondering what exactly the article would have been if I had missed a step more and ended up dropping to the group. What the news would have carried, would it have been the same news? I sat upright, a hand on my knees at what had just occurred, sweepi
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman A drop
Alexis's POV The air stilled with no one saying a word like I had thought they would, maybe they were spellbound and as such, couldn't say anything. “ You can't do that,” Nortia blurted out. “ It isn't even yours in the first place, do you really think that I will watch you take what belongs to me?” “Like you haven't in the first place, you signed off the company to me on your own accord and I never forced you to do such, so you shouldn't go about talking off, stand aside, while men are talking you aren't supposed to utter a word,”I edged closer, toward her uncle when her father's voice came out in a muffled tone. “I will take it” he exhaled out, stunning me. “What are you saying?”“The shares and the position, I will have it, Nortia will take it in my stead, but I want my shares”“ Father, you can't,” Nortia turned to him, her eyes brimmed with tears at what she had just heard. “ You can't just let this go, you can't let this slide” she explained to him when he held her hands, e
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Roaches
Alexis's POV My feet came to a halt just in time for what I just heard, my eyes swept across the hall before they fell on Nortia who was spellbound and couldn't say a word.I edged closer, bridging the gap between us as I went closer. “ Stop please” I held her father back. “You shouldn't do this, it was what he wanted, you doing this will make you fall into his trap” I explained. Anyone could see that and the smirk that laced his face told me that much also and so I knew that I had to get him to stop, him wanting that was so cruel of him and he wasn't going to stop unless he got what he wanted. I was left to ponder on what exactly he had in mind that he wanted to do or he had planned, killing someone was out of it, had he gotten to the point where he had dead his heart? That whatever was going to happen could happen but he wasn't going to lose the company.Doing so much for something that wasn't even yours from the onset was pissing to me but I knew humans and they were greedy, I
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman off a building
Nortia's POVThe relief I had felt when Alexis had brought it up, holding it in his hand in a grasp was startling, a chuckle left my lips in relief when he held it up to my face. Placing a hand against my chest, I watched his face as it contorted into a frown before he stepped out, holding a hand out at me. “ Is something wrong?” I gauged his expression which told me something seemed off or it was. “ I just got a message from my father and I am going to need you to hold you feet and take in air before I let you know what it is” “What!” My voice came out in a scream while I asked in a muffled tone. “ Is something wrong?” “Your uncle called an emergency meeting, and your father was voted out, I know it will come out startling but he needed you to know that your uncle had gotten your father out already, we can't do much with that” he chewed on his lips.I stood, staring blankly at him before I sauntered back, barely able to catch my breath because of what he had just said before le
Contractual Marriage: The billionaire's Woman Misplaced
Alexis's POV If it was true what we had just been told, I knew it would change everything, and it would be what we are looking for. “ Do you have it?” I pushed on as I asked, waiting for him to answer when he turned his head behind him before stretching out what looked like a discarded memory card at me. “Are you sure about what you just said? Will you be able to stand as a witness if it comes to it?” I asked, wanting to know that he had the balls to go along with his words and he wasn't just saying it because he wanted to. “ I can, everything you need is in there, it is going to be tedious and hard for you, but you will be acquired at the end of it all, you will win and that is going to be it”I gauged his explanation before letting Nortia accept it, holding onto it firmly. “ Thank you, we are grateful for this” Mr. Edward said, gratitude coating his voice as he did. I could sense the apprehension that laid in his tone and how hard he was trying so he wouldn't showcase how weak
