Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 239 - Kiss and Tell
(Xander's pov) Little Red Face lost her red glow. I could stand her anger when she glared, her embarrassing moments, her smiles, even her cusses, but this was something that broke me. She was pale and broken, and her voice trembled. My jaw clenched. This was the worst way for her to find out her stepmother killed her mother. I wanted to pull her into a hug, telling her it was okay to cry and that she could cry on me. I wanted to tell her sweet words to reassure her she wasn't alone. I was here and would be able to be by her side, but her voice ripped my heart. I have never seen her this broken. I could not stand it. She wanted me gone, I didn't want to. I could never leave her like this. "Karis." I softly called, but she jumped off the bed and then burst out. "Xander no, I said no. Just leave me the hell alone." She screamed at me, the tears continued pouring out. Her tears were precious, and I'd rather not see them, but she wanted me gone. I understand the fee

(Karis's pov)' Will it be a sin if I let go for this once? ' I asked myself that question as soon as I felt his lips on mine. I understood what Xander meant by don't kiss and tell. It's hilarious but I think I actually needed this now more than ever just to let go. Every resistance I had was immediately thrown out of the window; those lips were drawing me and I accepted the sweet temptation I had no hesitation to. He wasn't rough like I expected but was gentle and tender. It was like he was telling me something I had been ignoring and I didn't want to acknowledge, but tonight, I honestly didn't care. I felt hollow inside and exposed, and I needed something to complete me, even if it might be temporary. He pulled me closer as my hand searched for his hair, pulling me closer to the temptation. He left my lips, trailing his tongue up to my ears. He nibbled on causing a whimper to escape my lips. His voice was hoarse and a seductive tone as he whispered in my ears.

(Karis's pov) Xander was a bit stunned when I kissed him but he quickly recovered from the shock and returned the kiss. Things got more heated as we continued to get entangled on the bed. His hands were not idle, they quickly snuck under me to undo the zip, and soon later, my dress was already discarded on the floor, leaving me in my undies. I was too high in the moment to care. He left my lips trailing his kisses to my ear, which he nibbled while grinding and dry humping me. I didn't even care about holding back my little moans. "I want you to undress me." He whispered a command and then sat up in between my legs, which were wide open for him. My gaze travelled to his handsome face that was covered by some of his dishevelled hair then those grey eyes that were drawing in me. Spellbound to his words, I sat up, kneeling on the bed in front of him. His gaze was intense. I couldn't hold it. I bowed my head and then reached out for his shirt. My actions were slopp

(Karis's pov) I struggled to free my hands from his grasp. The need in my cunt was driving me nuts. He got to be kidding me but it didn't look like he was joking. "You will really be the death of me." I cried out; he ruthlessly dragged me from the heavens, crashing back here. "Not as much as the jealousy kills me," Xander stated with all seriousness. I swallowed hard confused why this man was so jealous. My thoughts strayed, wondering if there was a slight possibility he didn't touch Emma that night because it was crazy why he cared what I did with Skyler those past years after what he did. "Why do you care? You act like you love me." I sneered at him, something flickered through his eyes I couldn't understand. Xander rubbed his bulge that was still within the restraints of his boxers on my pussy that was crying badly I swallowed hard after a long hiss left my lips. "What if I do? Is there anything wrong with that?" He asked me back his lips brushing against m

(Karis's POV) It felt like my world froze, and everything became bright immediately after I saw a single word, ' positive' on the pregnancy test results with tears welling up in my eyes. "This is not a dream." My voice broke as I spoke. "Congrats, ma'am, you are three weeks pregnant." The doctor congratulated me. I was unable to hold it anymore and immediately burst into tears. They were tears of joy; after five long years of being called barren, I was finally able to conceive. I was so excited by the news my ears turned deaf to anything other thing the doctor said. I just waited for him to dismiss me before rushing out of the hospital. Suddenly everything thing seemed brighter. I was so happy that my emotions were all over the place, laughing and crying at the same time. On my way home, I kept thinking about how to share the good news with my husband, with multiple ideas popping up in my head. Tomorrow is Xander birthday, so I decided to get an early birthday present for him a

(Karis's pov) My head was spinning and it took a while for me to realize what was happening. A second ago, I was in the middle of the road about to be crushed by a car, and the next second, I appeared in the dressing room on my wedding day. I would have thought it was a dream or a joke but I could feel Bertha hold on my wrist. Was I being reborn to have a second chance in life? I stopped moving as I came to the realization. Bertha turned back at me, surprised why I stopped; her eyes went wide, stunned because my eyes were blurry with unshed tears. I felt like crying, remembering everything that happened in my past, which might repeat itself in the future. "Karis, Are you crying? Please don't cry today should be your happiest. I can't believe you are finally married to Xander, your long-time crush." Bertha said in a calm voice caressing my hand. "I can't help it." I sniffed, hugging Bertha; it had been ages since I saw her because Bertha died in the past. She wa

(Karis's pov) My heart skipped a beat, feeling Xander's hands around my waist in a protective way. Even the way his voice sounded in my ears made me shiver. I was stunned that Xander stepped in between me and Skyler because he had never done something like this in our past life. He was never protective of me, and I knew secretly it was because he resented me because of our arranged marriage. Xander was forced to marry me because of a promise his mother made to my dead mother. It was funny to realize I came between him and his true love Emma. ' What was he trying to do here? ' After all, he should not give a fuck about me or who I speak to. He should run ahead to his crying lover and not me. If this was the former me, butterflies would have been in my stomach, yearning for the touch of the man I loved and chased for years, but his touch didn't feel the same anymore. "What if I can't do that Mr De Marco? You have a beautiful wife here, and it is tempting and hard to

(Xander's POV) Karis was left speechless, her mouth parted and closed as if searching for the words to reply to me. I could not point my fingers at exactly what it was, but after when she stormed out of the hall because of Emma's provocation, it seemed like she was a different person. Her eyes, which were always filled with admiration, were dull. I was still finding it hard to believe she had run away from me. What the hell was going through her mind? She used to be a naive open book I could easily read, but now I had no idea what she was thinking. The lady underneath me was different from the little girl I grew up with, who kept pestering me everywhere. The shock in her eyes disappeared and was replaced with a mischievous look. "Who said I belong to you, Xander?" She snickered at me. I didn't like the tone in which she spoke, how dare she suddenly behave like she didn't love me after we were married due to her obsession. "Repeat what you just said Karis and I

Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 238 - Dad's journal
(Karis's pov) My face was pale and I was completely flabbergasted. It was difficult to imagine. Miranda was a witch, but murder was not a joke. She loved Christian. I could remember how she acted in the hospital, she was completely devastated by everything. "I am sorry, but that's what we suspect," Xander said, embracing me with his familiar warmth as his rich scent that I was addicted to overshadowed me. I didn't want to shed tears to be completely thrown off. "You are trembling, little Red. This is why I didn't want to talk to you right away." He sighed, rubbing my back as I leaned on his chest. "But why would she want him dead? He was going to give them everything." I asked Xander, although I knew clearly he didn't hold the answers I was searching for. "I have no idea but something caught my attention. I was looking into the Reynolds family before you froze the accounts and found out most of Christians's account funds were being diverted in small amounts so as
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 237 - She killed him
(Karis's pov) This has been one hell of a crazy week, from Xander finding out Valeria is his then forcing me to move in with him because of Emma, buying the company, Dad's unexpected swift death and now this. ' What did Dad's lawyer mean by Emma isn't a party of the will? ' my thoughts screamed for crying. This was too much. I groaned, exhausted, as I covered my face in my hands, bowing my head. I was both mentally and physically drained at once. Xander held my shoulder and then slowly squatted before me, making me look back at him. "Don't think about it, everything will be fine," Xander said as if he could read my mind. "I am a bit nervous; it feels like my revenge was ruined," I murmured, bowing my head. Xander smiled; he pinched my face and then raised it to gaze back at him. My hazel eyes met those grey eyes that weirdly gave me a sense of comfort, one I could never feel around Skyler, and I knew the reason why. It was because, unfortunately, this annoying
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 236 - Dad's will
(Karis's pov) Whether it was just my gut feeling I could not accept Father died a natural death. Xander was reliable he got into action immediately. He got the police involved restricting Miranda from accessing Dad's body until the autopsy was done. While I got the court to freeze Dad's account until his will was read. Luckily the De Marco name made things fast. The court quickly gave his injunction and everything was freezed leaving only the Reynolds home Miranda was resident in. Miranda got mad claiming I was doing to to prevent her from accessing what was hers but I turned a blind ear to everything. I tried getting everything together while we waited for the autopsy. First I changed a lot of staff at the Reynolds group suspected of corruption then ran internal audits on every branch and business under the Reynolds company. It has been 2 days after father died and Miranda kept on sending threats and going to court to overturn my court injunction but the De Ma
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 235 - He wasn't meant to die
(Karis's pov) This wasn't meant to happen; he couldn't be..... No, I had to be positive. My face was drained of every colour and I almost lost my footing; Xander rushed to catch me, but Skyler caught me before he could. Xander's sharp gaze was on him as he tried to stay calm while I organized my thoughts. My relationship with Christian was complex, I never expected news of his possible death to have such an impact on him. "Can you stop scaring her? The doctor hasn't said anything, and you are already trying to scare the shit out of her." Skyler snapped at Xander. He was seriously irritated by Xander. I shrugged off Skyler's hold to stand on my own. This should not be happening; in my past life, Dad was perfectly healthy until I died. Why was he ill now? "I need a moment, can you stop bickering for once." I snapped at them, and luckily, Xander decided to listen to me this time around. After drawing in a deep breath, I left Xander and Skyler outside to see Dad in the
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 234 - He is dying
(Karis's pov) There was a strong stench of antiseptic in the air, this is why I hate the hospital. Dad collapsed on the stage during the press conference throwing the hall into a frenzy. We were barely able to get him out of there, and now I have no idea what was happening. The doctor was yet to reply. He wasn't the best father, but he was still my dad, and we still did have some good memories, so I could not help but worry. "Don't worry too much; Christian will be fine. He is just stressed." Skyler's words reassure me. He had followed me to the hospital and had been with me since we arrived. "I can't help but worry. Even if Christian wasn't a saint he is still my father. Do you think I killed him?" I asked, my hand started to tremble. Skyler quickly pulled me into a hug rubbing my back. "Stop saying that; he isn't dead yet, and you did nothing wrong. Christian will be fine." His words were reassuring but a feeling in my heart kept on telling me otherwise.
