Luciana was upset by the time she returned to her car after getting chased out by Jordan. She felt so humiliated. So mortified, and not just that, she couldn't comprehend the lustful emotions still raging through her even in her current state.She was so damn horny. For some reason, she found Jordan's arrogance and scoldings thrilling. It filled her with desires she couldn't understand, and right in that moment, she was fucking horny. She could feel her core clenching and unclenching at nothing.Luciana closed the car door after hopping in. She took a moment to calm herself down as she shut her eyes, allowing all the feelings of humiliation to wash away. This wasn't the outcome she had expected. She couldn't believe Jordan not only refused to have sex with her but also chased her out. The man of four years ago she knew would have never done such a thing. Jordan had completely changed and it scared her. She was perturbed she would never be able to feel his touch again. As bad as she w
"What the fuck was that, Luciana?" Henry inquired in annoyance as he gently pushed her off him. Luciana was still in a state of shock and she could barely regain her composure before she muttered. "Huh?""You just moaned my brother's name. What the fuck was that for? You're fucking me and you're moaning his name?" He fumed, his anger palpable. "Are you fucking serious right now?"Clutching her chest softly, Luciana's gaze faltered. "No, I did no such thing.""The fuck are you lying about? I heard you, bitch!" Henry growled, his jaws clenching with fury. "You moaned Jordan's name. Don't you dare try to twist this!" He warned furiously.Luciana's heart raced with trepidation as she stared at him. She was legit scared as this was the first time she was seeing Henry go ballistic. She wracked her brain for a quick solution to her problem. Luciana didn't recall moaning Jordan's name, but knowing she was only fucking Henry because she needed a substitute for Jordan, she realized his name
Before a dressing mirror, in a well-furnished and luxurious master's bedroom, sat a lady, who admired herself as she got dressed in her bedroom. As she brushed her long brown hair flowing down her shoulders that morning, she smirked, observing her reflection in the mirror. Her honeycomb eyes glinted with mischief as she tucked her strands of hair behind her ears, retrieving a lipstick from the dressing and elegantly applying it on her lips.She made a pop-up sound with her lips as she pleased with her beauty. Tossing the lipstick back on the table, she finally returned her gaze towards her bed, her expression hardening as her eyes met with that of the man, who lay on her bed with no clothes on. "It's about time you leave, don't you think?" The lady frowned at him as she questioned.The man, whose charm was ethereal with those piercing grey eyes, furrowed his brows at the lady."Come on, baby, don't tell me you're pushing me away this morning... After all our shenanigans last night?"
Raven reclined in her chair, her breath held in anxious anticipation as she awaited the arrival of Alexa, whom she had summoned through her assistant.As she sat there, her mind raced with curiosity about who Alexa might be. Despite her efforts to recall any familiarity with the name, nothing surfaced after thorough reflection.With an exasperated sigh, Raven's gaze drifted back to the entrance, pondering the delay in her visitor's arrival.Finally, the door to her office creaked open, revealing a woman clad in a striking sky-blue corporate outfit, her auburn hair impeccably styled.At first glance, Raven instinctively recognized this must be the individual she had been expecting—Alexander McKanne. Yet, she was still taken aback, staring at Alexa in bewilderment, unable to place her or recall any previous encounters.The sound of Alexa's heels clicking against the marble floor broke the silence as she approached Raven's desk, a warm smile illuminating her face as their eyes met.In co
Alexa made her way to the State Prison after her meeting with Raven came to an abrupt conclusion.As she drove along the highway, she reflected on her earlier conversation with Raven, during which she had asked her several questions about herself. There was something about Raven that struck Alexa as suspicious. Initially, she had been impressed by Raven's sophistication when she saw her, but now she sensed there was more to her than eyes meet. This intuition was encouraged by Raven’s obvious discomfort during their discussion.Curiosity about the source of Raven's anxiety gnawed at Alexa. However, she sighed and glanced at the work files resting on the passenger seat.Shifting her focus back to the road, she pushed her thoughts aside and decided to concentrate on more pressing matters ahead. She was on her way to meet Jordan and she contemplated whether she should inquire further about Raven from him. Her instincts hinted at something significant, and Alexa wanted to validate her sus
Snapping back to reality, Alexa blinked weakly as his greetings resonated into her ears. Her demeanor quickly shifted as she didn't want him to know she had just lost herself under his intense gaze.Moving away from the doorway, she closed the door behind her gently before sauntering over to the table. Jordan's eyes remained glued to her as he enthusiastically watched her grab a chair and settle into it. His excitement about seeing her was palpable, and upon noticing this, Alexa felt her heart twinge.She tried as much as she could to avoid eye contact with him as she began unpacking, bringing out the paperwork from her bag."Uhm, I'm guessing this means you're fine," Jordan remarked with a casual shrug.Alexa initially hadn't comprehended what he meant by that until she recalled he asked about her well-being a minute ago. This made her remain silent as she skimmed her eyes through the paperwork. An eerie silence enveloped them as Alexa engrossed herself in the paperwork while Jord
Rendered speechless, Alexa stared at him for a moment as she pondered her thoughts.Jordan maintained his intent gaze on her, awaiting her response to his inquiry. He sensed something was amiss, given the way Alexa had asked him that so randomly. Of course, he recalled who Raven Hardin was. She was the wife of his billionaire friend, more like a colleague since they didn't have a close relationship. Jordan had only encountered Raven once or twice and it was because of Luciana, who had introduced Raven to him some time ago as the secretary of her fancy club. Jordan hadn't really thought much about the lady since then, but he saw her on TV occasionally. He was aware she was a societal woman, but what he couldn't comprehend as several questions gnawed at him was the reason Alexa was asking about her.Judging by her countenance, He could tell she had uncovered something, but she was reluctant to share it with him. However, he remained calm as he didn't want to coerce her into quelling hi
"... I miss you," He confessed, his voice dripping with affection as he held her gaze.Absorbing his words, Alexa was stunned to silence for a minute. She stared at him, her gaze faltering due to her racing heart. She felt a lump in her throat as a whirlpool of emotions washed over her. That was the last thing she had expected he'd say to her out of the blue. She was both fazed and somewhat emotional.Regaining her composure, her demeanor shifted as she reminded herself about who she was dealing with. It was the same man, who had left her to a cruel fate... Who didn't even look for her after she got discharged from the hospital... Who had betrayed her and given his mistress everything she'd ever wanted. It was the same man, and his name was Jordan Salvador, the one who was currently sitting across from her.Absorbing these resolves, Alexa felt anger brew within her. How dare he lie to her? She huffed at him irritably, her orbs sparkling with annoyance. "You miss me? What the fuck mak
"Mommy, are you going to be seeing Daddy soon?" Blair asked her mother as they began heading towards the airport terminal. They had just landed a few minutes ago and they were currently strutting towards the terminal, where Alexa knew Elena would be waiting for her. She texted her a few minutes ago of their arrival and Elena had reassured her that she was already at the airport terminal.Alexa looked down at her child, who was holding her hand firmly. She offered Blair a soft smile and nodded curtly, although unsure if they would really be seeing Jordan today. "Sure, baby, you'll be seeing Daddy soon,""I can't wait, Mommy," Blair grinned, displaying a small set of teeth that caused Alexa's heart to melt at her cuteness.Atlas also chimed in, grinning from ear to ear. "Me too, Mommy! I missed Daddy so much and I can't wait to tell him about my girlfriend in school."Alexa chuckled with amusement at her son's antics. It was true; even Atlas had found love in some girl at the new schoo
**ONE YEAR LATER**"Oh my goodness, Alexa, I'm so excited!" Elena's thrilled voice resonated through the phone as Alexa clutched the phone to her ear.A smile spread across her face as she absorbed Elena's excitement. Even though she couldn't see the woman closely, she could imagine the happiness that was currently radiating from her. Elena sounded so thrilled."I'll be at the airport, Alexa, I swear. I'll leave work. I'll wait for you till you touch down. Gosh, I can't wait!" She screeched enthusiastically.Alexa couldn't help but chuckle as she absorbed Elena's promise. She couldn't blame her; she was also dying to see her just as much as Elena couldn't wait to see her. How much time has passed since they last saw each other? One whole year.That's right, the last time Alexa had seen Elena was when she had left the country a year ago after what happened with Tyler and Jordan. It had taken her six whole months to gather herself before she began even reaching out to Elena again.Elen
Jordan was distraught as he rang Alexa for the second time and there was still no response. He checked his messages to see if she had replied to his texts but also there was no response. A frown crossed his face as he couldn't comprehend Alexa's sudden change.He was worried and he wished he was back in the city so he could visit her. However, he was currently out of town as he had gone on a business trip as the new head of JS Enterprises. He had merely concluded the meeting when he decided to call her again. However, all of his calls went straight to voicemail. Worry gnawed at Jordan as he thought something might have happened. His heart constricted painfully at the idea that Tyler must have returned to Alexa's home to confront her. What if that was the reason she wasn't taking any of his calls again? What if something had happened, and maybe Tyler had overreacted like before?These considerations had Jordan's heart racing frantically as worry consumed him. Checking his messages one
'Baby, you haven't been taking my calls, I hope you're doing okay. I'll be coming later. I love you.' Alexa stared at Jordan's message for the umpteenth feeling a clog in her throat as she read it. It was true; she hadn't been taking his calls and had been completely avoidant since what happened with Tyler. Tyler still hadn't been taking her calls nor replying to any of her apology messages. Alexa was fazed and worried. Although she never wanted things to end like this, she felt this was best for everyone."Hey, are you good?" Elena's voice disrupted Alexa's thoughts as she asked her friend with concern laden in her tone. Alexa, who had been sitting down staring at her phone as she got prepared in the living room, looked up at her friend and nodded slowly. "Uhm, I am.""Are you sure?" Elena asked, holding Alexa's gaze. "Are you sure this is it, Alexa?" She asked further so Alexa could really comprehend the depth of her question.Alexa swallowed and nodded curtly, averting her eyes a
"Jordan!" Alexa exclaimed with terror as Jordan seized Tyler up, ready to punch him across the face again but Alexa quickly tugged at his arm, halting him effectively. "Stop it, stop it, please," she cried out, gripping Jordan's arm tightly.Jordan seethed with rage as he glared at Tyler, whose nostrils were now trickling with blood. He could barely control his raging emotions as all he wanted at that moment was to teach Tyler a lesson for calling Alexa a 'whore.' How dare he?"Jordan, please, stop it. Let him go," Alexa's pleas sailed into his ears, causing his heart to ache. He reluctantly loosened his hold on Tyler's collar at Alexa's order. Jordan was pissed off. "He doesn't deserve you, Alexa,""I know, still let him go, Jordan. Let him go right now," she asserted firmly, her heart twisting with anguish. Gosh, she hated this. She had tried her best to avoid this drama but she guessed she failed in doing so. Acutely aware this wasn't the time to berate herself as she had two me
An overwhelming feeling of shock and bewilderment coursed through Alexa as she met Tyler's furious gaze. Tyler had just barged into her office unannounced and his demeanor screamed of nothing but pure anger. "T-Ty," Alexa stuttered, prompting Jordan to turn to face the man who had just entered.The two men locked eyes in a heated gaze until Tyler started with a snap. "Really, Alexa?" He shook his head with disbelief. "Really?"Even though she couldn't comprehend what he meant by that, her heart raced wildly as she absorbed his indifference. He looked miffed and with the way he glared at Jordan, Alexa didn't need a soothsayer to tell her that Tyler must have found out the truth somehow. But how come? It wasn't supposed to be like this. She had planned to tell him herself. No, no, this was bad."Ty," She called out to him frantically as she pulled out of her thoughts. Her eyes held remorse as they met his gaze. "What is the matter?" She asked skeptically, trying not to believe he had
Tyler Sterling recoiled from his desk as he watched the news of Luciana's arrest. His brows creased with a frown, seeing the offense Luciana had been apprehended of. He was familiar with the woman. He remembered she had paid him a visit just two days before her arrest, to inform him that Alexa was cheating on him with someone else. Tyler had brushed her off, registering her words as absurd. Even though he hadn't confronted Alexa yet as she had been very busy with work, Tyler still trusted her completely. He believed Alexa wasn't capable of doing that. And even though they weren't really in a real relationship yet, he knew the feelings Alexa harbored for him.As Jordan continued watching the news on TV concerning Luciana's arrest and her downfall, he couldn't help but notice the man with Alexa behind the scenes. He flinched as he recognized him to be Jordan Salvador, the same man he had been noticing with Alexa and also the one Luciana had cited Alexa was cheating on him with.Tyler's
With Jordan as the new head of the company, he was able to apprehend Luciana on time with Alexa's help."Dear Miss Henderson, you're under arrest for the setup of Jordan Salvador. You have the right to remain silent, as anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney..." The police officers who had arrested Jordan before now, said to Luciana as they secured the cuffs around her wrists.Luciana's face was etched with horror as she looked from the officers to Jordan and Alexa who had led her arrest. Alexa smirked smugly, while Jordan shook his head in disappointment as he met Luciana's gaze."I will ensure you rot in prison for this, Luciana. That is a promise." Jordan said to her callously, his eyes darkening with rage. "Take her away and lock her up."Luciana was fazed. She hadn't expected they would arrest her. She believed they were still clueless that she was the one who had framed Jordan. It seemed she had thought wrong.Des
Luciana had just gotten off the phone with Raven and her eyes blazed with fury as she grappled with the reality of what had happened. Raven had just informed her about Alexa's visit to her office.Annoyance coursed through Luciana as she pondered her thoughts, unable to fathom what had led Alexa to restart the investigation. She thought everything had ended with Jordan's release, how come Alexa was still prying into her privacy and trying to look into matters that didn't concern her?Luciana's insides coursed with a bit of relief as she reflected on Raven's assurance. "I didn't tell her anything. But you need to do something about this."Luciana had reassured Raven that she was going to handle it but at that moment, she couldn't think of anything else. Well, maybe it was time to finally expose Alexa's secrets to the firm and get her fired? Luciana pondered. Only then will Alexa be able to back off from the investigation as it was no longer an official case? But why had she restarted
