Escaping my heartless billionaire husband Betrayal
(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
Last Updated : 2024-09-11Escaping my heartless billionaire husband You are my wife
(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
Last Updated : 2024-09-11Escaping my heartless billionaire husband I don't love you anymore
(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
Last Updated : 2024-09-11Escaping my heartless billionaire husband my biggest mistake
(Karis's pov) I loved to see the shocked expression on Xander's face; he probably could not believe that I lost interest in him. "You are in love with someone else." Xander chuckled, unable to believe the words that were coming out of my mouth. His shock was understandable because which bride in her right mind would tell her husband on their wedding night that she doesn't love him but it had nothing to do with me "Yes, I made a mistake in the past and I..." He didn't let me finish my statement as my lips were sealed by Xander's lips again. It seemed like he wanted to dominate me with his sexual appeal, and I wouldn't lie 'cause he was dangerous. Every time his lips captured mine, and his sinful tongue started exploring my mouth. It makes me feel like giving in to him. Xander was going to be the death of me. Despite how I kept on telling myself I should avoid him a part of me that always craved his love and affection wanted to give in. Why was he doing this to

(Karis's pov) "Come in." I managed to say. My voice was a bit raspy from crying all night. Luckily, the maid could hear me. The door creaked open, and a brunette a few years younger than me opened the door. The maid was shocked when she laid her eyes on me with them popping out. "You slept with your wedding dress on!" She gasped with her hands rushing to cover her mouth. She quickly realized her tone was a bit rude and immediately apologized. "I am sorry for the way I spoke. Good morning, Madam De Marco. I am Deborah, and I will be serving you this morning however you want ." Deborah introduced herself slightly bowing. "Did Xander send you to check on me?" I asked Deborah whose eyes subconsciously averted. I scoffed at her reaction. He must have sent her to check if I did anything crazy after last night. "Mr De Marco instructed us to take very good care of Mrs De Marco." She answered, avoiding my question. This was how Xander's staff were even in the past. Now I

(Karis's pov) I tried my best to behave like I was not affected by his words, but my burning ears gave me out. "That sounds like a tempting offer but I think it is presented to the wrong woman." A soft smile graced my lips. I was bringing up Emma again but not directly because no matter how trained and confidential the servants were, it would be unpleasant to have rumours going around about my husband having a lover that was none other than my very own sister. "We will see about that," Xander replied in a flat tone, still not affected by my words. He was different this morning from how he was last night. This was the Xander I knew who cared less about me and exactly what I wanted. "Don't get your hopes high after all, remember what I said as my reason last night." Xander's expression finally cracked a bit. I was talking about the lie I said about being in love with another, it seems that was his bottom line. Xander was a very possessive person from what I remember
Last Updated : 2024-10-01Escaping my heartless billionaire husband can't stand your touch
(Karis's pov) . I froze when Xander's lips captured mine for a tender kiss different from the domineering ones we shared last night. He was deliberately toying with my feelings and it annoyed me a bit. He gently bit my lips causing me to moan into his mouth as my lips parted and his tongue slipped into my mouth like a thief ready to explore a treasure chest. Xander deepened the kiss and every urge I had to push him away was thrown out of the window. His hand that was holding my chin let go of my face and went down to my lap. It made its way under my a-cut skirt, and immediately at that moment, I regretted why I decided to wear a skirt and made a mental note to wear more trousers. While his lips were glued to my lips, his hand were tracing gently around the curves of my lap. The rascal planned on using every means to make me submit. Suddenly, the image of how he was having wild sex with Emma on our matrimonial bed, banging her like no tomorrow from behind, popped into my head, and

Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 252 - Feb 14
This is based on my fiction so the location are based on imagination and not accurate to the actual Oxford University.********* There was a park close to the cafeteria, the sun was slowly setting, and Skyler was walking Amelia towards his car. They just finished a study session, which he paid her for, claiming he needed help because of the classes he missed when Skyler was even way better than her. He just enjoyed their study sessions because he would hear her voice go on and on. Her accent was a bit funny but he still loved it. People tend to do stupid shit when they are in love, and Skyler had Amelia in his heart since his freshman year, but she was anerd that loved her books more than people. Amelia chuckled, hearing Sky, then smiled lightly, making her blue eyes sparkle. The way her dirty blonde curls bounced and her eyes sparkled was always breathtaking it made every minute with her worth it. "There is something I have always wanted to do, and Tonight is perfect;
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 251 - Seven years ago
Note the following chapters related to Zed and Sky's back story will be in the third pov to make the pacing fast. After the flashbacks I will return to the regular first POV. Thanks for reading (✿^‿^) ******** Back at the De Marco estate, Karis was still in a state of shock. She explained her best saying she had no idea about how she got married to Skyler. Luckily, despite Xander's rage, he listened to her. Sky Link headquarters were in France. As Much as Karis wanted to get on the first flight back, she could not when her children's whereabouts were unknown. The best she could do was make several calls trying to understand what was happening. To her dismay, it was real. Xander looked into it, and it turned out that she actually got married to Skyler 3 years ago when they moved to France. It was authentic and registered; she had unknowingly signed a marriage certificate without knowing it. What even made their marriage more legit was the fact that the hous
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 250 - Gone too far
(Skyler's POV) I sat in my dim study, waiting. The low light and the soft glow of the minibar did nothing to ease my bad mood. I had been waiting for a few minutes, and every minute only made my irritation grow. They were taking forever. I lit a cigarette and took a slow drag, watching the bitter smoke curl upward. My thoughts were a jumble of frustration and anger. There was a faint sense of achievement after all things were still going according to plans. Finally, I heard the door open, and footsteps approaching. Someone had arrived.I looked up sharply, feeling my anger spike. "Why did you take so long? I fucking hate to be kept waiting," I asked, my voice rough and impatient.The intruder hesitated, fumbling with her words. I could sense the nervous look in her eyes as she tried to explain. But I was too upset to listen. Every minute of waiting had only deepened my irritation, and now, sitting there in my study, I felt no patience left. I could feel her tension behind me.
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 249 - The person that made her
(Emma's pov) It was fucking annoying listening to those little bastards cry all day. I didn't like the fact I was made to look after them. I kicked the door open, stunning the girl for a bit, the main crybaby. "Can you shut the fuck up?" I barked at her, staying here was unbearable. I just wanted to kill them. At least, it would be my revenge. "I want my mummy," she cried out after recovering from the shock. She was a naive girl and wasn't scared a bit by the fact that a gun was in my hand. My eyes dulled hearing her say, Mummy, that's right, they were Karis's Children. Vance tried to get Val to calm down, as he was more collected than the girl, but it didn't work. I cocked my gun at her. "If you don't shut up, I am fucking going to pull the trigger, and don't worry, soon your mother will join you." I threatened and it successfully made her stop crying. Val was curled up by the bed, quietly sobbing, while Vance's eyes stared at me as he comforted his sister. I
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 248 - Mrs Karis Crest
(Karis's pov) My life was falling apart all over. My eyes stared at the tray Xander left feeling no hunger in my stomach. How can I eat in this condition? I didn't want to think about the accusations Xander said. Skyler can't do all those things. I remember his genuine smile that kept me pushing. He was my bedrock and biggest support, so it wasn't possible. I curled up on my bed to cry. I didn't care what happened to me, all that mattered was my children. My eyes shone with determination; I was going to find out the truth and prove to Xander he was wrong this time around. ****** The sound of the door screeching against the floor as it was pushed open woke me up. My eyes fluttered open; there was a sharp headache that was pounding my head. It was hard to focus on anything. Last night, I had no idea when I slept; I had cried myself to sleep sometime after midnight. "Go away," I muttered, refusing to even see who was at the door. I curled up to bury myself in my
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 247 - always suspected him
(Xander's pov) Honestly, I never expected Karis would have slapped me, but it happened. I justified the reason, saying maybe she was overwhelmed, and it was also my fault. I was devastated, but unlike Karis, I wasn't the type that easily broke down. The only time I lost my shit was Karis's death. Karis's face was pale. She could not imagine the possibility of Skyler being after everything but tell me what other logical explanation there could be. I am certain Skyler was probably the one who hired Juliette, and not to forget he was with Karis during her pregnancy. Tell me, who else would be able to hide the fact she had twins and steal one of the children? I had suspected this for a while now, but there was no evidence, but Juliette's actions made everything certain. "I cannot think of anyone else. I always warned you he was a piece of work, there is a reason we don't get along. " I answered her. Karis jerked my hand away leaving the bed. "You are lying Xan
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 246 - Am I The One At Fault
(Karis's pov)The call hung up, I tried calling multiple times but no answer. Emma was with my children, what was going on here? Why was this happening to me now?My legs gave up all strength, falling down. Xander held me preventing me from falling but I could not handle this. If anything happens to the children I really don't think I would be able to live with myself. I just could not live with myself. "I am tired Xander." I muttered, "she is going to hurt them." Emma was a psychopath, her eyes told me that she would carry out her threats. "We will find them." He assured me but I was losing faith. All this while we have been searching for Emma still no sign. It's been 5 long days but she disappeared the same way Miranda did. This was driving me nuts. "When Xander? Why is it that whenever I am close to giving in this always happens?." I asked him, he didn't say anything but just held on to me tightly. I was trembling, my body didn't stop shaking. I finally got the rev
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 245 - She took them
(Karis's pov) My heart was restricted and I couldn't breathe. My babies were missing, they were gone. Why was this happening now? Things just kept on piling up. I rushed out of the office not giving a fuck about the numerous other meetings I had. Lavender could take care of it, all that mattered now was to get to the bottom of everything. Val and Vance, I loved them even though I was shocked at how fast I fell in love with Vance. He was such a sweet boy and now he and Val were missing. From the glass doors I saw Xander waiting anxiously for me and a surge of anger fuelled me. He said he would protect the children and I but they got kidnapped under his watch. I didn't care about the looks from the onlookers then ran towards Xander. He knew I was about to hit him but he didn't evade it and let me. I palm struck hard on his face but Xander didn't say anything. "Say something bastard, how were they kidnapped?" I screamed at him. His jaw clenched. "I am sorry I cou
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 244 - Sweet Trap
(Vance's pov) Since it was the holidays, Val and I majorly spent our days indoors. From what I heard Dad prohibited us from leaving the estate. It was fun spending time with Val but staying in the estate all day was a bit boring. "I wish we can go get some ice cream," Val whined, lying flat on the rug, exhausted from a long game of hide and seek. I took my seat by her side, also in the mood for ice cream. "Let's go ask Deborah, I am sure there is ice cream in the fridge." Val immediately sat up excited for ice cream.." that's true. I almost forgot that we can get it from the kitchen, although it will be nice to visit the park daddy used to take us to. I loved the ice cream from the truck there." Val's mood was brightened and dulled again. We didn't know the reason why we had to stay indoors but I had a feeling it was related to my former mummy. I overheard Dad one time on the phone saying something about Emma wanting to hurt Val and me. "Let's get the ice crea
