Escaping my heartless billionaire husband We meet again
(Karis's pov) It was surprising to run into Skyler so soon. He was someone I never met in my past life, so I didn't know much about him except for a weird reason: Xander hated his guts. 'Is he the owner of this brand?' I wondered looking at the handsome guy with looks comparable to Xander's level. ' Why did our paths never cross in my past life?' My brows furrowed at the unknown in this life called Skyler. "Mr Crest." The sales girl blurted nervously. She started trembling immediately when Skyler appeared. "Where is the manager?" Skyler inquired. His eyes casually glance at the sales girl before falling on me. " The manager is currently with one of our VIP customers." The sales girl answered having cold sweats. Her entire personality seemed to have changed immediately after Skyler appeared. "Oh really, he is serving other clients when his boss is around. That's interesting." Skyler commented with an amused smile before he turned to look at the sales girl, who w

(Karis's pov) "I never want to see the likes of her in this store, or you can kiss your job goodbye." The Manager was shaken by Skyler's threats. From the way he spoke, it was obvious he was not joking. " I will make sure of that." The manager said with all earnestness. He had to make sure to secure his job. Skyler's cold blue eyes averted from the manager then turned towards me. Immediately, his eyes sparkled as a smile graced his lips. It was as if the cold look in his eyes earlier was just an illusion. "I am sorry you had to witness all that Mrs De Marco." He chimed at me. Why was everyone calling me Mrs De Marco as if they were rubbing it on my face? I had a name that was Karis, for crying out loud. "You can just call me Karis." I insisted, pursing my lips to a thin line. That surname reminded me of someone I wanted to forget, which was my husband Xander. "In that case, you and Bertha, can you call me Skyler since we already consider ourselves friends." He

(Karis's pov) Skyler was a daring person, "if you want to snatch me from my husband, you have to work harder because Xander is a very handsome and rich guy, not to forget he is a passionate lover." I played along with Skyler and said brazenly. Everything I said was true even though I had yet to consummate my marriage with Xander in this lifetime. In my past life we had several wild nights, and I remembered how passionate he was in bed. It was hard to believe what Xander said about being disgusted by me because if he was, there was no way he would have passionately made love with me over and over again until my legs went weak at his prowess. "Then I guess I will have to work harder, and I can promise you one thing: if you get into the same bed with me, you will never regret it." Skyler went again to shamelessly talk about having sex with a married woman. If he went along with this, my reputation might be ruined, and I would be known as a cheating wife. "I guess you

(Karis's pov) Xander continued to walk towards me with his eyes darkened, I could not understand that also made me excited at the same time. ' When the hell did I start liking such thrills? ' my thoughts screamed. I felt my back hit the wall, but Xander didn't stop until he was standing directly in front of me with both his hands, caging me at both sides, blocking any chance of escape. I nervously gulped and raised my head with every ounce of confidence in me to look back at him. My hazel eyes locked with his sharp grey eyes, and for a weird reason, my knees felt weak. "What do you think you are doing Xander?" I asked him with my voice trembling. ‘ Fuck it, why was I still shaking before him where did all my confidence go to?’ I thought pissed at myself. I bit my cheeks, trying to hide my nervousness. Xander had a smile on his face that seemed like he got mad at something. What did I do wrong? All I did was go out with my friend Bertha to have a fun day while getti
Last Updated : 2024-10-03Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 14 - Wash off My lovers touch
(Karis's pov) There was a little devil on my shoulders telling me to push him as badly as I could. I wanted him to suffer. Xander was very competitive. He didn't care about my feelings but just did not want me to care about anyone else. He was just fucking selfish. The dimly lit room was filled with tension. Xander was about to explode at any moment. Although I knew Xander was not the type to hit me or punish me physically, there were ways he had to make me regret whatever silly things I was bravely saying. "Did he touch you? You let someone other than me touch you." He said with a deadly calm voice. My heart beat spiked at his unnatural tone. The calmer he was, the more nuts that were missing from his head. I tried to pry his hand from my waist but they were like firm claws holding me in place on his chest. I could hear my heartbeat in my ears while the devil-cold aura at my back was going amok. Xander spun me to look at him, his eyes keenly observing mine. There were no emot

(Karis's pov). Things were getting heated up as the sexy man who I got married to, was sinfully giving me a bath to wash away my lover's touch. If I knew he was this crazy maybe I would not have let Skyler hug me. He took his time to wash me clean until I felt his hands touch the thin fabric protecting my innermost part. My heart was already beating erratically in my chest, spiked up. He deliberately played with the linen of my lacy panties just to tease me before his hands went down my lap. Forget it he was just using this as an excuse to touch me. This horny bastard was very smart. My eyes could catch sight of the apparent bulge being restrained on his trousers. He turned his attention to my hair, pouring shampoo on my hair, which he started to massage. His actions made me wonder if my imaginary lover could leave his mark on my thick chestnut hair. Xander suddenly stopped with his eyes zeroed at a spot in my body. "You let him touch you with his lips," Xander sai

(Karis's pov) I didn't know what else to do but cry at my pathetic self. Xander stopped, and the funniest thing was that a part of me didn't want him to stop the part of me that was drawn to him so badly; no matter how I sang it like an anthem, he was my biggest enemy and poison, a part of me never agreed. He was truly the only man I loved in my entire life. That was why I completely lost it when he betrayed me. His eyes suddenly softened and he took a step back. "You can't bear me touching you, but you let him make you feel good, and yet you mention Emma every single time." He sounded hurt and it tore me. Why was I feeling hurt because of his hurt gaze? I gritted my teeth and clenched my fingers into a fist. "I hate you with every fibre in my body." I spat at him and he looked stunned but not agitated. He was not angry when I said I hated him. Instead, this heartless bastard smiled. He gave me a dazzling smile. Xander had truly lost his marbles. "Go ahead and say

(Karis's PoV)After leaving the bathroom I had to instruct the servants to arrange bath products for me to use in another bathroom. Everything was arranged and brought to me to use in the bathroom of a nearby vacant room. Then the idea struck me, ' what if I ask about sleeping in another room?' I thought, because sharing a room with Xander was going to be a serious issue.Not only could I not stand him, but there was a strong chance that if we slept on the same bed, my rebellious body that subconsciously craved his touch would betray me. The problem was not just my body but Xander, he was something else when it came to seduction. Every fibre of his body was made in a way that it drew any sane straight woman to him. That's just how gorgeous my husband was, and I was not an exception to his charms."The bathroom has been prepared." I heard Deborah inform me breaking my line of thoughts. She was the same maid that woke me up in the morning."That's perfect." I chimed at her, g

Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 269- Can't Die Alone
(Emma's pov) It was annoying I had to stay under the same roof as Karis but avoid her the best I could. This was the safest place I could stay now away from Xander's hound dogs. I was a bit devastated when I was informed Mum had attempted to escape the country without me but ended up being caught by Xander. That aside, today was the day. Skyler agreed as soon as he got his hands on Xander's shares, I would get a settlement and be able to leave this country. Honestly, I could not wait. It was a new year, and instead of having a grand party or celebrating like I normally do, I was penniless, watching TV, bored as fuck. Nothing was out of place until I started hearing numerous footsteps coming from the hallways. Curious, I stood up from my bed and walked up to the door. My brows pulled together when I saw the security rushing out. "What is going on?" I nervously asked one that walked past me but the guy didn't seem to hear me. The walls were vibrating, and the
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 268 - Never said I love you
(Karis's pov) "Checkmate." Skyler was initially confused but soon it dawned on him that it was truly over for him. I truly had no idea that Xander and I were never divorced; it explained why he was relatively calm because he knew Skyler never had the company he was playing Along with Skyler's music. The weather was a bit cold being on a lake during the winter despite it being in the afternoon. The afternoon sun hung high in the sky, and I could barely feel the heat on the glass gazebo due to the weather. Skyler was devastated like he had lost all strength. He had nothing to say because he was sure this was his end. Xander was never going to let him go this time. "Karis, are you truly going to choose him over me?" He asked barely a whisper, his face distorted. "Stop calling her name, Skyler. It is over. You went too far. The reason I let you be in the past was because I also felt guilty but not this time around." Xander said while Skyler looked back at him in disbe
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 267 - A step ahead
(Xander's pov) New Year's Eve a few hours after Miranda was captured and the failed raid.***** It felt like everything was crumbling down after Bertha told me that Karis was gone. Skyler had taken her out of the mall after he started a distraction in the mall by turning on the sprinklers and fire alarm. From the camera feed, we saw him take Karis from the table as she followed him willingly, but the camera didn't capture when they left, thanks to the chaos and all. He had successfully disappeared. I didn't know where to start from and was honestly considering handing over the company. I did have some hidden cards, but he has my entire family, putting me in a tight spot. I should have stopped her this morning when she left. My head was filled with thoughts of getting the children back. I didn't think of the possibility of her leaving. The door to my study was pushed open, Ethan was waiting in the living room for me while I came to the study to get some docu
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 266- lost in a daze
(Karis's pov) I could not sleep the entire night; it was the 31st of December, and even the children were confused as to why I sent them to bed so early. Ever since I got here, Val had been coping a bit more; at least she was eating now. "Mummy, why are we not celebrating the new year eve?" Val asked curiously truly naive as a child. Vance was also lying on the bed, I sat in the middle while they were lying by my side. This was the only way I felt comfortable here, close to them. It gave me a bit sense of comfort in this cage. "Because I am tired this year and just want to sleep till tomorrow." I lied to Val who was by my right. "I thought we would celebrate our daddy," her voice trailed the entire time Vance was quietly listening. "I know but he isn't your daddy anymore. Let's just go to bed tomorrow will be a long day." Saying those words broke me when I saw the hurt on Val's face. She bent her head hugging my waist. She didn't cry, but I knew I wanted to. My p
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 265 - The final negotiations
(Xander's pov) The new year was meant to be something special which people look forward to, but for the past 4 years, I always dreaded this day. It reminded me that another year had gone by, and I was alone. That was how it felt to me. "You can do this," I said those words hoping it would help me get my nerves together. I closed the door and then proceeded to the luxurious Crest Lake restaurant in front of me. The place was filled with customers since it was the new year. Skyler chose a safe location; he knew that I would likely not do something Crazy with this many people around. I was put in a difficult situation. From the entrance, I was immediately recognized by the manager, who seemed to have recognized me. "Happy New Year, Mr De Marco. Mr Crest has been expecting you." He chimed. "Happy New Year," I said out of simple curtsey, my eyes darting around the restaurant. I was the least interested in the fancy interior that screamed money. The beauty didn't matter to me. "Ple
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 264 - Desperate Measures
(Xander's pov) At this point, I think Skyler's true power is to make people disappear. It made me wonder when he got this tricky. In the end, he won; imagine how frustrating it was to know he was the one behind everything, but there was no evidence linking it to him. He had planned everything, making Emma the front to take the blame, not to forget the fact Emma was still missing, but I was certain that he had a hand in that too. This game had gone on for too long and I was genuinely tired. It was a few minutes to midnight; my eyes were focused on the road as I drove back to Ivan's place. The car slowed down at the red light. My eyes glanced away from the road for a while to the passenger seat where an envelope sat. It was the transfer document; desperate times require desperate measures. I scoffed, glancing back at the road; after finally inheriting the business and building it to an all-time high, the genius business tycoon was giving it out to save his family.
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 263 - A second chance
(Karis's pov) The table was silent as we ate. After finding out Val had refused to eat anything for over a day now, I had to force her to eat. So we had our meal together as what appeared like a family of four. The room had a very heavy tension and I wondered if the children knew that Skyler was a bad guy. This was totally unlike Val who was always chatty and cheerful with Skyler. "I am full," Val said. I glanced at her plate to see it was now clean. "That great dear." I chimed at her, and she nodded. "Can I leave now?" Her voice was very soft. "Sure, if you are full." Skyler was the one who responded this time around. Val nodded and then left the table. I watched her little feet run away. "Can I also leave?" Another small voice asked. My attention drew from Val to Vance who was super nervous. He was also done eating. "You can go ahead," I informed him and he didn't waste a second more to flee the room. It was left just me and Skyler. "They will und
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 262 - A sacrifice that needs to be made
(Karis's pov) I think I lost consciousness as soon as I sent the text to Bertha to leave, I had to send the text to Bertha for Skyler to believe. I had no idea where we were heading. My head was a bit dizzy and was laid on Skyler's thighs while gazing outside. "You are awake," he muttered, drawing his gaze from outside to me. I tried to sit up, holding my head that was aching. I glanced outside and the only thing I could see was an endless stretch of trees. We must be somewhere around the outskirts. "Where are we going?" I asked Skyler, sensing his gaze on me. I was trying my best to act natural so that he would not sense anything odd. The more I looked at him, the more my heart ached, realizing what he did. He was a freaking lunatic. "Somewhere safe to avoid Xander's eyes before we leave the country during the new year." My heart skipped a beat, my eyes drawing back outside. It was still day, hours away from midnight. I know we were miles away from civilizatio
Escaping my heartless billionaire husband 261 - why do you always leave?
(Xander's pov) I thought today was going to be my lucky day; by chance, we were able to comprehend Miranda. She didn't even give us any issues and relayed the information she had about the twin's location. It was an old manor on the outskirts of the city deep inside the forest. If I had not caught Miranda there was no way we would have found out. The car sped as fast as it could. I crossed my fingers, hoping they would be there and this would be the end of this madness. "We are getting close." The driver informed me. Ivan's men had already gone ahead to lay a siege on the property. After what felt like forever, I finally arrived from a distance. I could hear the baring sounds of gunshots. This time, we were prepared to go against the mercenaries as I had my hands on some military combatants, a favour from an old friend. I stepped out of the car, and one of the soldiers approached to give me cover along with other armed personnel, who were all covered with bulle
