Chapter 120

Author: Maria Anita
When I arrived at the executive floor, Samantha jumped from her desk and rushed me to the bathroom.

"Oh, tell me, tell me! How was it?"

"It was really good, Sam, really good. But I'll tell you all about it at girls' night, so I only have to tell the story once."

"You're going to kill us with suspense until tonight!" Samantha pouted. "But I should warn you, Alexander knows you went to lunch with Levy."

"How does he know?"

"Dennis told him."

"And?..."

"I overheard him telling Patrick that it's better if you move on, he doesn't want you to suffer and Levy is a decent guy. But Cat, he's devastated."

"I know, Sam, but I can't let myself sink. I have a son who needs me. Levy is a great person and we agreed to be friends, he knows my situation and my feelings. Soon Alexander will be married and I won't be the other woman."

"You're right. Let's get back to work."

When I sat at my desk, I checked my phone and had lots of messages from the girls, all wanting to know how my lunch with Levy went,

    Alexander’s POVWhen I found out that Catherine had gone to lunch with Levy, I wanted to chase after them, punch him in the face, and take Catherine with me. But I couldn't do that. Levy had been very honest with me the day we met at Patrick's house. He had told me he would keep his distance, but if things didn't work out between Catherine and me, he wouldn't miss the chance to try to win her over. And he hadn't wasted any time.So, just like how the girls met every Tuesday for their "book club," my friends and I also got together to talk, drink, and play games. We had agreed to go to the Social Club because Patrick thought a livelier environment would lift my spirits.When I arrived, I went straight to the casino to meet the guys. We started a poker game, and it cheered me up a bit. I was smiling, chatting with my friends, and drinking a soda - keeping my promise not to drink alcohol intact after the mess at Mari's party.I felt a sickeningly sweet perfume invade my nostrils, and then

    Alexander’s POVThe next day, I had barely sat down at my desk to start the day when my phone rang. I answered and heard Samantha on the other end:"The demon wants to talk to you."I already knew who it was, and there was no way around it—I had to take the call. Samantha transferred the line, and I heard Johnson's whining voice trying to lecture me."How dare you, young man, treat my daughter like that? She came home sick, nervous, and depressed because you mistreated her in front of everyone. Alexander, you're going to get married—you need to give my daughter the place she deserves.""What place, Johnson? The place of a whore who takes advantage of a drunk guy to get pregnant and blackmail him? Because that's exactly her place." I was already boiling with anger."Don't talk about my daughter like that!" Johnson shouted."Are you forgetting that I'm your boss?""Alexander, you need to talk to my daughter. You're getting married, and there are many details to work out. So you'd better

    Johnson’s POVOn my way to the office, I kept thinking about that ridiculous lunch yesterday. I wanted to kill that jerk Alexander. The things he's been saying and doing to me and my daughter only increased my hatred for that spoiled brat. But I couldn't get rid of him - I needed him to marry my daughter and ensured she bears an heir with his surname. The Miller name opened many doors and will guarantee that everything that fool has would belong to my daughter and grandson, and consequently, to me.The worst part was that he managed to postpone the wedding by three months. Postponing the wedding only delayed my plans, but my daughter had to throw a fit over a damn party. However, in the end, it was better that this wedding is big and pompous, featured in all the newspapers, just as little Anna wants. This way, there would be no doubt that my daughter would be the wife and mother of a legitimate Miller.But there was still one thing - I wanted that house, his parents' house. A beautiful

    Alexander’s POVJohnson was really wearing me out. Now he was throwing a fit about the floor, but he would stay right where he was. I couldn't stand this pain in the neck anymore. The audit needed to go deeper and was combing through years of business activity. Alan said this might take a while. Meanwhile, I had to put up with this idiot.I've been locked in my office all day because of the New York clients. The contract was going very well and they're thinking about expanding their business with us, but they've asked for a lot of information that Rick and I were organizing. I'd probably have to travel, but maybe getting away for a bit wouldn't be bad."I come back from a trip after a month away, and I don't get confetti and balloons? What kind of friends are you?" Mari walked in joking. "Wow! But this office looks beautiful!""Mari! I'm so glad you're here. I've missed you so much!" I got up to meet the woman who was like a mother to me."Oh, dear, I've missed you too. How are you?""

I grabbed my purse, kissed my son goodbye, and said farewell to Lygia and Mel.When I reached the entrance, I saw Levy leaning against his car with that gorgeous smile. God, this man could be less hot. I'was crazy about Alexander, I'was dying having to give him up, but Levy was something else - he had an indecent beauty. Levy was seductive, handsome and attractive, wearing a delicious cologne. All of it resulted in a beautiful and sexy man who would leave any woman literally drooling."Hi, beautiful Catherine!" he walked towards me and gave me a kiss on the corner of my mouth, which gave me butterflies in my stomach. "Even more beautiful than last time.""I... uh... ahem..." I cleared my throat trying to stop stuttering. "Good evening, Levy!"He looked at me with a somewhat playful expression, his smile widening. He placed his hand on the small of my back and led me to the car, opened the door an

Caroline shouted at her mother, who was bedridden with a cold."Sweetie, keep your voice down, my head is killing me," Helena spoke in a whisper."I don't care about your head, Mom!" Caroline shouted again and stormed out of the room, stomping her feet."Carol dear, what's got you so worked up?" Johnson, who was in the living room checking news on his phone, asked when his daughter came in and sat next to him with a sulky face."Daddy, Mom just won't help me...""What didn't your mother do this time, sweetheart?""I wanted to go see my wedding dress yesterday, but your wife got a cold and said we'll only go next week." Caroline acted as if she'd suffered a terrible injustice."Honey, don't be like that. Ask Celeste to go with you.""Daddy, but Mom won't give me the card. She's being stubborn, saying it's a mother-daughter thing.""I've already deposited the money in her account, so she has to give you the card."

    Caroline’s POVPerfect! With this money daddy gave me, I could go see the doctor who'd help me with this fake pregnancy. I've already spent a fortune on the fake test and the nurse who manipulated the lab results that Alexander made me take. I knew if I made a scene, my father would give me money to calm me down - it always works that way. The good thing was that what he gave me covers what the doctor asked for the first ultrasound and left enough for me to go shopping.I saw my father had just left, so I left right after him. In the car, I called the doctor. Celeste was the one who set me up with him. That fake woman was quite useful. I knew my father's having an affair with her - I followed them and knew exactly where their little love nest is. But I haven't needed to use that information yet; Celeste did everything I wanted because my father gives her money. But if I needed to, I'd create a scandal to expose them both."Dr. Vale speaking.""Hi, Dr. Vale. How are you? This is Carolin

Levy sent countless messages apologizing for not being able to see me, as he had to work due to many unexpected situations.Mari spent Sunday with us and spoiled Peter all day long. She had brought him a present from London, and he was enchanted - it was a building block set that reproduced Buckingham Palace, complete with a small carpet simulating the streets and one of those double-decker buses that are so common there. Everything was very colorful, and the bus even had a wind-up mechanism and working lights."Mari, how am I supposed to compete with that?" Melissa said with a smile, watching Peter dissolve into giggles of joy as he assembled and disassembled the blocks.Mari gave me lots of advice and asked about Levy, counseling me to take things slow, suggesting that my situation with Alexander might still work out. I assured her that Levy was just a friend, and although he wanted something more, my love for Alexander was deeply rooted in my heart. But I coul

My eyes immediately flew to the tray she was carrying, which held a cup and a plate with the chocolate cake I had given her earlier. She wasn't going to do this again, was she?My mind flashed back to a few months ago, when on a day of much teasing, Catherine had masturbated in front of me while I was on a video conference with these same Chinese partners.She walked in with an innocent smile on her lips, came over to me, set the tray on the table, and placed a cup of tea beside me. She let the napkin drop and bent down to pick it up, sticking her butt out nicely for me. She was sexy and immediately my cock stirred to life inside my pants.

    Around four in the afternoon, Manu informed me that the detectives were there to see me. I found it strange that she mentioned them in plural, but I simply asked her to let them in. Alexander appeared at the door just as the men were entering."Bonfim! Moreno! Thank you for being so kind as to come take my wife's statement here," Alexander said in a friendly manner."It's our pleasure, Miller. And by the way, thank you again for the wedding invitation. It was truly a beautiful celebration," Bonfim replied with his usual courtesy and politeness."It was an honor to have you and your family with us at such a special moment. You returned the love of my life to me, so you had to be there," Alexander responded, hugging me. "Let's do this in my office, my angel."We entered my husband's office.

    Alexander slipped his hands under my hair and gently removed the tiara I was wearing, skillfully tossing it onto one of the armchairs in the room. He broke our kiss and, like a lion circling his prey, walked around me with eyes burning with desire. He stopped behind me and began to kiss my shoulders. One by one, he unbuttoned the few buttons on the skirt of my wedding dress. When they were all undone, he placed his hands on my shoulders and, with a subtle and fluid movement, pulled the long ends of the fabric that, tied in a bow, held my dress in place. As he untied the bow at my neck, my dress fell off my body and tangled at my feet like a heap of lace and tulle.He hugged me around the waist, pressing my body against his, making me feel his erection on my back. He turned my face to kiss my mouth and without breaking the kiss, not even for a second, he lifted me out of the tangle of dress at my feet, setting me back down facing the bed. Alexander circled around me once more, slowly ap

    Alexander picked me up in his arms with impressive ease. With me in his arms, he crossed the living room, climbed the stairs, and walked down the hallway, stopping in front of the door to the main bedroom of the house."Can you open the door for me, my angel? Please." Alexander asked.I reached out my hand and turned the doorknob, pushing the door open. Alexander entered the room with me and gently set me down on the floor, turning back to close the door behind us.The room was huge and had been completely redecorated. I knew Sam had a hand in this. One entire wall was made of glass, with double doors that opened onto a private balcony overlooking the garden. I was impressed, looking at the decor with candles of various sizes inside iron lanterns scattered throughout the room, providing romantic and delicate lighting.The enormous bed was in the center of the room and was invitingly made up with sheets, a duvet, and several pillows, all dressed in fine pearl-colored linens. Above it hu

    Alexander's POVAs I walked down the aisle arm in arm with Mari, I noticed that Catherine had thought of every detail for the ceremony. There were wooden and iron garden benches for the guests, and adorning the entrance walkway were immense vases of colorful tulips. At the altar stood a wooden table, and behind it, a portico decorated with white fabric and tulips. When I reached the altar, I looked at the first bench in front of me, empty, and saw photos of my father and mother in silver-framed portraits, with a white tulip in front of each photo. Catherine had thought of a way for me to know they were there with me in that important moment and to represent them so everyone would know it. Mari sat next to the photos, and I was immediately moved.When our friends, now the wedding party, started to enter, I was impressed by the girls' dresses. Each dress had the color of a tulip - purple, red, yellow, orange, and pink - in vibrant shades. They looked beautiful and harmonious. There were
