Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 55 - Bad Memories of The Past
(Karis's pov) Luckily, Xander finally listened to me and stopped speeding out the rest way back home. By the time we got back home, the sky was already dark. John welcomed us back; Xander invited John to his study to discuss some matters unknown to me while I went back to the bedroom. I had a hunch they were talking about the fiasco Skyler caused this morning. Xander's meeting with John took longer than expected; I later found out his assistant was called over, and they were discussing something very important. I didn't bother myself to know about whatever they were talking about because it had nothing to do with me. For the first time in forever, I enjoyed a peaceful meal without Xander. After dinner, I went to get ready for the night and started to sketch down some jewellery designs inspirations I got from the Blue's Secret fashion show, but it was hard to concentrate because my mind kept on thinking about Bertha's condition. "Ahhhh," a groan left my lips as I pulled

(Karis's pov) That night Xander didn't return to the room until I fell asleep. He worked the entire night. I was sleeping comfortably snuggling on a pillow. It was so comfortable but it was warm and not fuzzy. I snuggled closer into a tight cuddle to enjoy the warm feeling. It was one of the best sleep I had, but the faint rays of the sun had to interrupt this perfect sleep. ' Why does this pillow feel a bit hard?' I asked myself, confused while I was half asleep. Warm breath fanned across my face and my eyes immediately popped out to see the comfy pillow I was snuggling all night was a grown man. I jerked off from the bed falling with my butt on the floor. When did Xander get back to the room? How did I end up hugging him in my sleep? The loud sound of me falling off the bed woke Xander up, and he slowly sat up on the bed, resting his back on the bed headrest. "Why the hell do you have to be so loud in the morning?" He cussed rubbing his forehead. He looked

(Karis's pov) "Ahhhhh," I yelped trying to scout away from Xander. To say I was embarrassed is an understatement. "Xander, for goodness sake, try to be loud when you walk." I made up an excuse for what happened. His hand was still in my hair. Xander bent down to my level with a smirk on his face. "There is no need to be shy trust me you will love the feeling of my dick in your mouth." He teased me. My jaw dropped at his unfiltered words; after recovering from the shock, I waved off his hand. "I will never want your dick in my mouth Xander." I scoffed at him. "We would see about that." He smiled at me before getting up, and then he headed to the walk-in closet. My eyes subconsciously followed him. If Xander had turned back he would have caught me drooling. Why was heaven unfair? Xander was the Pinnacle of perfection when it comes to looks and wealth. It was not hard to see why other girls fell effortlessly for him. Xander pulled off the towel exposing his butt from

(Karis's pov) My throat went dry, aroused by his words alone. Yes, there was this desire in me craving for his touch I should loathe, but to say I needed him was something I didn't know. My face flushed again, how did he know I was thinking about him in the shower? My face gave me away because Xander's smile widened. Damn, his smile made my legs weak. I could not even deny the claims. "So I was right, so what exactly were you thinking about me? Were you fantasizing about all the things you wished we could do, but you are too stubborn to admit?" Xander continued teasing me without giving me a break. "I was not fantasizing about you. Stop having silly ideas in your head." I argued back but my blushing cheeks gave me out. I was a bad liar and my treacherous body was not helping things. "Then why are your cheeks so red, Karis? You were never a good liar. I can sense your arousal from here." Xander arched his brows at me. It was hard to believe his words because he

(Karis's pov) I nervously bit my lips not expecting to be caught by Xander. He narrowed his eyes at me and then scoffed as he walked past. A breath of relief left my lips seeing he was not going to say anything about me eavesdropping. "Are you going to sit there all night? We have a flight to catch." Xander mentioned glancing over his shoulders. He didn't even bother to give me a helping hand. I got on my feet and dusted the invincible speck of dust on my butts. "Next time you want to eavesdrop don't stay close to the door." I heard him say before he left through the door. The car was already waiting for us outside; I wondered how long Sam had waited for us to get ready because he had been on standby the entire time. He was already looking tired but he gave me a polite smile when I arrived. Sam opened the door for me to get into the back seat. Xander was already inside, leaning against the headrest. It seems whatever he spoke about with Emma really got on his nerves.

(Karis's pov) I was left speechless after the kiss. My eyes caught sight of the hostess, who was stunned by Xander's actions. "If you don't know how to dress properly don't bother showing in front of me. It seems you don't love your job." Xander said out loud for the hostess to hear. He didn't even bother to glance at her like she was not worth his gaze. The hostess's face went pale. "I am sorry about that." She quickly apologized and then adjusted her clothes immediately. Xander's face was still close to mine. I placed my palm in front of his face to shove him away. He grabbed my hand and it before linking his fingers with mine. "Get your face away from my face," I grunted, not liking how close he was. His warm breath was fanning across my face, leaving a tingling feeling. Xander grinned, then brought my hand to his lips before leaving a kiss on it. "You don't like me looking at other women, so I am giving you all my attention, dear wifey. I am all yours." Xand

(Karis's pov) I was expecting we would be staying at a five-star hotel or something of that sort. It was beyond my expectations Xander planned on staying in a luxurious modern Villa. To maintain one of these must cost around £200000. It couldn't be a rental, considering how proud Xander was. "It's fine since it is my wife," Xander replied then stepped out of the car. He buttoned some of his loose suit buttons before offering his hand to me. I accepted it. There was no need to reject it since we called a truce after he accepted the open marriage agreement. My eyes sparkled seeing the villa I would describe as elegant in Chelsea since it was located in the Chelsea neighbourhood. The average cost of a villa here was around £2.8 million. "Welcome Sir and Madam." A middle-aged woman with a British accent in the London dialect welcomes us. "Hi, Mercy. How have you been?" Xander surprisingly replied to the housekeeper. Mercy smiled at Xander and then replied. "I
Last Updated : 2024-10-20Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 62 - Don't Make Me Hurt You
(Karis's pov) I instantly melted under his kiss, enjoying the way he dominated me even though, at the back of my mind, I knew that my feelings should be the opposite. It was just hard to resist Xander who was a walking hormone magnet. Everything about him was enough to make any straight girl lose their marbles, not to mention my case was made worse because of the bitter feeling of love that was hidden in my heart. He bit my lower lip, and my mouth opened right, gasping for air. Xander took the opportunity to insert his tongue inside my mouth and domineering found my rebellious tongue to entangle with it. A moan escaped my mouth as my back arched. I wanted him to release my hands so that I could grab his hair while he was assaulting my mouth but it was too much to ask for. When my body was already asking for more, he broke the kiss, and a strand of Silva left our mouth. His eyes were still fierce after the kiss that left me breathless under him. "Don't talk about

Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 192 - A forced date
(Karis's pov) My first instinct was to get the hell out of there; that would have been what Karis would have done in this scenario, but Karis is dead. Madam Esmeralda was not scared of an annoying ex-husband. "I thought as much." Xander chimed, still maintaining his annoying smile. I had a strong urge to smack it off his face. At times I wonder what goes on in that head of his. His smile made me sick to my stomach and, for a strange reason, reminded me of a lot of annoying memories I would rather forget. "I didn't know you know, each other. I hope you are not offended by Mr De Marco joining us. Since you requested further negotiations, I thought it fit he should be here since he is already my partner." Mr Santos explained. My smile stiffened, Xander had already finalized the deal. "We barely know each other Mr Santos," I said with a dry smile as I took my seat. Lavender excused us to go to an already booked nearby table. "Are you sure about that? To the best o
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 191 - The devil that haunts me
(Karis's pov) Today was a long day. I had several calls coming in, and a lot was generally happening, not to forget the fact I was all over the media. Honestly, everything was draining, and it was more than I had bargained for. "Maybe you should just take a break, and if you need my help, don't hesitate." I heard Skyler say over the phone. I just finished a quick Zoom meeting and was about to leave home for my lunch appointment with Mr Santos. Skyler called in to check up on me which was very thoughtful of him to do."I will take a break. There is no need to worry much, and if I need your help, I will contact you." I replied, knowing fully well I would only resort to asking for his help as a last card. I didn't want to depend on others to achieve my goals, and Skyler had already done more than enough for me, so asking him for more help didn't go well with me. "You promise to ask for my help." He mentioned that his Baritone voice sounded soothing to my ears.
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 190 - face slapping
(Karis's pov) The Reynolds family held 50 percent deciding power, meaning if all the other shareholders were against the idea, then the decision would be bounced off the table. "First of all, we have to make something clear here. Only shareholders can make a decision." I mentioned that plunged Emma and Dad into deeper confusion. I cleared my throat, and then my eyes darted among the shareholders. "Gentlemen, you can now leave. Thank you for your time," I mentioned. Then, to Emma's shock, almost every shareholder got on their feet and nodded at me before they left the room. "What's going on shareholders can't leave in the middle of a meeting?" Emma asked confused. There were just 4 people left in the room: Dad, Emma, me and Mr Floyd, who refused to sell his shares. "Isn't it crystal clear to you already?" I asked Emma, who was still confused, but I think Dad got the message because he released a frustrated sigh. "You bought off all their shares." Dad sighed
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 189 - The talented daughter
(Karis's pov) Miranda was seething in anger; if looks could kill, I would have been dead by now. "Karis, please let your mother sit down. She is rather old," Christian said with a very calm voice. I Arched my brow at him, then pouted my lips pretending like I was considering when my real intention was just to have fun with my family. "Since Miranda had to sit down due to her age, why didn't Emma give up her seat? After all, she is the youngest here and Miranda's daughter."I suggested which was very reasonable. But for some unknown reason, Emma didn't like the idea of giving up her seat for her mother. Her face twisted in ways I never knew it could with her eyes throwing daggers at me. Christian reached out to massage the space between his brows because this argument was not going anywhere. It's not my fault he has a problematic family and a daughter who cares less about her mother. "In my opinion, you shouldnbe the one to leave here; you have never been to a st
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 188 - Board meeting
(Karis's pov) Looking at the amount of paperwork in front of me I could not help but cuss who I rather not say his name. That overgrown baby that decided to make my life a living hell. Xander De Marco got to be kidding me. I thought I was ready to face him and go head-on-head with him, but I had underestimated my ex-husband. "I will talk to the CEO as soon as possible," I said on a final before hanging up the phone call with one of my managers. After having a long night, I had secretly cried in my bed where Valeria and Skyler could not see me because, for a weird reason, my heart hurt after seeing the look in Xander's eyes last night. That bastard was still affecting my emotions. Why did it feel like I was hurting him when he was the one that broke me? That bastard knew how to mess with my head but a moment of weakness was not going to stop me from having my sweet revenge. I had waited 4 long years for this. I would make them regret ever messing with me in
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 187 - There will be no wedding
(Xander's pov) The car engine was roaring as it sped through the night. My hand held the steering wheel so tightly that it turned white while my legs were on the accelerator. I loved to race but it was a long time ago. The screeching sounds of tyres with the scent of gasoline and worn-out rubber on the racing track were etched on my memories. After racing on a private road for a couple of hours I went home. Tonight I needed to be by myself to get my thoughts together. As much as seeing her alive made me happy, the question on my mind was still how because I didn't want to accept her death. It made everyone think I was delusional, and they kept on singing it to my ears. Karis is dead, but she was standing in front of us, acting all sassy. I slammed the car door as I alighted, and then my gaze trailed around the main entrance of the estate, which already had light flakes of snow. It was a perfect night for winter to appear. Rage, disappointment, guilt, anger
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 186 - Xander can only be mine
(Emma's pov) The engagement was called off and I doubt Xander would continue with the plans because she chose to appear today. Everything is always about Karis. What's so good about her? She is just a country bumpkin. So what if she is a talented designer? I am also smart. After all, Dad would be giving the company to me. Xander left and he didn't care if I was watching him the entire time. What am I even thinking he never cared about me from the start. A dry laugh left my lips as I stood and watched them leave. It seemed like they were the main characters and I was the extra side character. I heard the fast-clicking sounds of heels coming my way, followed by Mum's voice. "How didn't you know she was still alive?" Mum asked me as soon as she was close enough she held my hands. It wasn't everything I could tell mum there were some secrets I kept too. She was trembling, and it seemed like she was affected by the news of Karis showing up more than I was. "Am
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 185 - why did she come back
Third pov/Author's Pov His embrace was warm, exactly how she remembered it, with his cologne entering her nostrils. Karis remembered days she wished he held her like this but he never did. "Xander, please let go of me; your hold is too tight." She calmly said. Xander was lost in reverie, reliving his biggest fantasy of holding his dead wife in his arms, and couldn't control his strength. "I am sorry. I want to hold you a bit longer." He apologized, reluctant to let go. He was scared if he did, this would be the last time he might hold her like this. "Let go, Xander; your touch makes my skin crawl. My fiance would misunderstand if he saw us like this. " Karis lied and Xander froze. She needed him to let go before her pent-up emotions poured out. He was the biggest obstacle she had to overcome. Xander gritted his teeth after hearing Karis's words. Skyler was no longer her lover but her fiance. This had changed. She was not his little red anymore. "It hurts whe
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 184 - It wasn't a dream
(Xander's pov) The last thing I wanted was to get married to Emma or anyone else. Marriage was sacred, and I just could not see myself getting married ever again, but I just had to for Vance. After a lot of deliberations, I came up with a simple solution. To have a contract marriage, Emma could be my partner in the public eye and have the benefits that come with it, but the one promise I made to her was that we could never be anything except a show. She was to stay in another property and far away from me; that way, Vance would be protected, and Emma didn't have to always be in my face. "That's enough alcohol, Xander. If you drink further you might get drunk." I heard Mum's sharp voice from the door. Her nagging was getting under my skin lately. She was acting like I was a teenager, which caused her constant issues because I changed a bit. The Zed she was scared of was far more terrifying than the Xander now. I was just a tired guy. "This is my first glass, and I h
