VICTORIA POV

The

feeling of once again getting close to him was a kind of strange nauseous to

me. I don’t think I can handle that. Moreover, there are lots of willing people

to take care of him.

I was

about to deny the proposal, but aunt Gina beat me to it. “Mrs. Devonte?” Her

eyes narrowed at me in suspicion. “Didn’t you just say you were divorced a few

ago? How come you are still Mrs. Devonte?”

I

almost rolled my eyes at her but controlled myself. I don’t want to create any

scene in the hospital and remain calm as much as possible.

“Yes,

we are divorced, and that happened just this morning. Unfortunately, the doctor

didn’t know it; at that time, it was impossible to describe all of it. Try to

understand the situation.” I replied as the doctor stared at me, a little taken

aback.

“Wait!”

Gina widened her eyes like a hypocrite. “Did you just sign the formal papers in

the hospital? How are you doing that!? You are not a family anymore!”

I

really can’t believe this woman. She is still ca

Max said. "Umm... Anything else?" I asked, Sitting in the opposite of his desk. "I mean, who could be the killer? Any hint?" Max shook his head. "Not yet." He looked around before lowering his tone, "And you must not be too curious about this matter. He was involved in the politician murder case and now this happened. It's dangerous, Lily." Closing my notebook, I chuckled. "Are you seeing me after danger the first time?" He sighed, narrowing his eyes, "Better my name is not connected to this case. Inspector Brian was my senior and this is morally a crime for me to share any inside news with you. But..." He let out a helpless huff. "What could I do? You're a friend I couldn't deny." "You're an amazing friend both personally and professionally." I stood up. "I'll leave now." "Hmm, don't

    LILY... I yawned, stretching my hands and fluttered my eyes open. The narrow ray of light was entering through the little window of my room. I smiled. It's a good and very free morning of my life. I couldn't help the grin broke on my lips... So refreshing to think that I kicked out a huge toxicity of my life! Sooo Good! Fluttering my eyes again, I looked at the small window. But, why does it feel so close this morning? I mean, sleeping on the couch, this window is a bit away from me, isn't it? Or, was I wrong? As if to answer my question, something firm wrapped around my waist, making me confused as well as alert... "Good Morning..." A deep husky tone muttered beside my ear. Fuck! I immediately jumped out of bed only to fall on my butt "AaGh!" I cried out and looked at the intruder only to gasp in agony, "Leo!" His bluish-green gaze was on me, frowning. "What stunt are you playing this morning?" He asked in a groggy voice, turning me dumbfounded. "I am playing!?" I barked at h

    LEO... I woke up in the late afternoon. Couldn't sleep the entire night thinking about the ridiculous shit I did in the club. I fucking kissed her! Her soft lips felt like cotton candy, and her soft berry scent was delicious... Since the day I met her, I wanted to kiss her and finally, I did, but... Now I want more even though it happened at a crucial moment, I couldn't stop thinking the feeling of her! That woman was insanely climbing all over my thoughts! After that kissing incident, I kept myself shut to not do something more crazy. Though I don't know how long I could maintain this peace. Every time I think of her, my imagination runs wild and the effect is clear under my trousers! Sigh... Sitting on the bed, I looked around. Lily was nowhere to be seen. Wait... Where is she? It's Sunday today and she's still out for work? Such a pathetic life of a reporter! That woman really does not care about her safety, does she? What if she faces sort of the same troubles? I'm not beside

    LILY... Not even three days passed and on the fourth day, I was standing right in front of the hell. I swore to not appear here after that insult but here I am, again I am here because Mom called me this morning. At the age of Fifteen, I left this mansion. It's been over nine years since she called me. I know I shouldn't after that night but I couldn't deny her because of the promise I made to Theo. If it wasn't for Grandma, I wouldn't bother to show up here ever. Taking a deep breath I stepped inside. Surprisingly, no one stopped me and I went to the hall. Alyssa, Ruby and Dad were Sitting there. The environment was gloomy. Something definitely happened here. "You called me?" I directly asked Ruby. For some reason, my usual fear wasn't working anymore. Probably because Grandma's safety was managed. She looked up at me. Her cold eyes were sending chills at my way. Beside her, Alyssa was leaning on her shoulder with her bloodshot eyes. "How dare you get in here!?" She roared at m

    LILY... Lord! I messed up! What to do now!? It's not my first time doing such a thing, yet I am frozen here. And before I realised, I was pulled back hastily as Leo covered the crack. "W-we need to leave," I muttered before opening the storeroom door to leave but paused at the sight of those men. Shit! They smelled us here! Immediately closing the door, I backed up. Hope they don't enter here. "What the fuck!? Are you always this clumsy!?" Leo hissed. "Who gave you the access to become a crime reporter!?" I was already annoyed and his taunts were worsening it. However, my annoyance died inside when footsteps neared the store room. Shadows of suspicious footsteps were just outside the door. I backed away, hitting my back at Leo's chest. I could feel his rigid figure. The knob of the door twisted and my heartbeat stopped for a moment. Suddenly, Leo grabbed me by the waist, pushing me on something hard and his lips followed mine next, stiffing me on the place. In the next second th

    LILY... Sigh... I stood helplessly in the phone booth, begging that annoyed specimen to bring my phone. Could my day be any worse than this? "Please, Leo. I need my phone now." I pleaded again. "You're asking a sick man, who is almost bedded because of you, to bring your phone to you because You're careless? Hmm, interesting..." His reply came from the other side. "What if I decline?" "No, please! I beg you! I need my phone, Leo. It's important, please!" I said, defeated. No more stingy with my pleas. "Ah, I don't want to... But, I guess, I will consider you this time only..." He paused and I was eager, "Only what?" I urged impatiently. "Only if you make breakfast for me every morning and don't nag me sleeping on your bed." "....." I could definitely feel a smirk on his face even on the phone. This fucking arshole! "Leo, don't you think it's too much?" I gritted my teeth. "Is it?" He asked as if there was no one innocent than him! "Alright then, help yourself." "No, wait!" I

  • Dear Ex-Wife, You Are MINE!    CHAPTER 20

    LILY... Rushing out for evidence at any hour was a part of my job. I accepted it as a part of my life because once I dreamt of becoming a crime reporter, I knew every day would be a new challenge for me. When Grandma used to live with me, she used to nag always for my safety and I used to kiss her cheeks and rush out with a smile. Since she was admitted to the hospital, no one did her part for me. Tonight was the same or it could be, if Leo didn't show concern for me before I left the house. Though I was indifferent at that moment my heart convulsed with a warm feeling I had never tasted for more than a year. He was a stranger who somewhat forced into my life. A bit annoying but harmless. As a woman, staying with him under the same roof didn't give me insecurity. Though I would never admit this in front of him, I could not deny the fact either. I don't know who he is, where he came from or what happened to him. But Leo is a gentleman. A woman's instinct could never fail when it's

    LEO... Is it even a time to go out? Didn't she remember what happened this evening? Fuck! I scratched my neck, feeling disturbed. Kept watching time again and again. It's almost Midnight and that woman is out of home! Does she even care for her security for once? I am stressed! More because I am worried about her when I shouldn't be! I mean, she is practically a stranger, but still, I am drawn to her. What happened this evening was proof. I have no memory, no particular known situation nor I am aware of my skills. I should have stayed away from those men and the most I could do was run away with her when she proposed. But, I didn't. My blood boiled when I saw the fear and helplessness in her eyes. It felt like I could rip the world apart who dared to hurt her. Those hazel eyes were pleading for salvation. In that moment something stirred in me and I wanted to keep her safe. I don't know if those guys were her enemy or some random teasers. Whoever they were, they shouldn't cross m
