“Why are you lying Lilly, why?" he asked as he looked at me with disappointment but I had no clue what he was talking about.

“Okay, I know I've been nothing but a bitch and…”

"Don't call yourself that, you're my wife,” he said and for a moment I was speechless, losing composure as a shiver went down my spine and it had nothing to do with the cold cellar.

“What I'm trying to say is that, I wasn't the best person but I wouldn't stoop so low and do something like that, I'm telling the truth. That day I…I had…” I looked down, my lips trembling before I turned to look at Antonio.

“I saw what happened that day," I whispered, clenching my hands as the memories came flooding back.

Flashback.

It was February 14th and I was mad at myself. And why? Because I was beginning to have feelings for the stupid boy I hated. I didn't want to see him because that would make me even more mad.

I hated that when I went shopping I thought of getting him a gift for Valentine. That was stupid.

    “I'm cold," I whispered as soon as he pulled away and I shivered. Antonio pulled me closer as he brought out his phone to check if there was reception.“Nothing yet,” he groaned. “There has to be a way out of here," I shivered again, clutching onto him for dear life and his arms tightly wrapped around me.“You'll be fine, I'll get us out of here," he said as he rubbed my back."Want me to tell you a secret?” he said and I knew that he was looking for a way to distract me from the cold, he was cold as well but was trying to be strong for both of us. He's just a man after all. “Do you remember that morning at my penthouse when you saw my closet filled with female clothes and shoes?" he asked and I narrowed my eyes on him.“Really? You just told me you love me and now you want to tell me about the clothes you bought for a woman that's not me,” I said and he chuckled as he dropped a kiss on my head and it warmed my heart. “There was never another woman, they were all for you," he said a

    When I woke up, I felt arms holding me gently and I felt safe. I slowly peeled my eyes open and looked up to be greeted by Antonio's warm eyes.“Hello beautiful, you're awake," he said as he dropped a kiss on my head. “Don't scare me like that again," I couldn't help but smile as I looked at him.“What happened?" I asked,“You passed out from the cold and thankfully they opened the door right on time, the hotel medical team checked you and you were fine so I brought you home to rest,” he explained,"What about you? How are you feeling?” I asked,"I'm good, I told you I'm immune to the cold,” I couldn't help but laugh as I joined hands with his. We were really okay, this wasn't a dream, no more fighting, yeah maybe fighting but we both knew how we felt about each other.“I love you," I said and he chuckled as he leaned down to me.“Are you already obsessed with me Mrs Gonzalez?" I rolled my eyes as I hugged him.“You should say it back," I pouted.“You know I love you, madly and crazi

    “What?" I whispered in shock as I looked at him. Someone from my family would go to such length to kill me. Why? Who would want to do this? Of course, why would I even think about it? It's Emilia. “Do you think you'll be able to go out tonight, if you're too tired we can go another day," Antonio said but I shook my head.“Not a chance," I said with determination as I reached for my phone on the bedside table. “I'll quickly call my mom," I said and Antonio nodded his head in encouragement before I climbed down from the bed and walked to the balcony.I dialed my Mom's number and it rang several times and there wasn't any response. I tried again and she finally picked up.“Hi honey, how are you?" she asked, her voice soft and filled with motherly concern.“I'm doing good Mom," I said as I managed a smile, "I need a favor from you please,” I said,"A favor? Anything, you can ask me, what is it?” She asked," I just miss everyone so much, especially after losing my sight and getting it

    “You look beautiful," my husband said from behind me as he zipped my dress, dropping a gentle kiss on my neck before turning me around to face him. I was a ball of nerves, thinking of who might be this person in my family that would want to kill me. I couldn't stop thinking that, what if it wasn't Emilia, who would it be?“Hey, calm down, don't get yourself worked up," he said and I nodded as I managed a smile,“Let's go," Antonio said as he took my hand and we both made our way out of the room.He opened the car door and I got in before he turned over to the other side and got in.“Are you ready?" He asked and I nodded, releasing a breath as he started the car and took my hand as he drove out of the mansion.The ride to my parent's house was filled with a comfortable silence.The tall gates of my parent's house pulled open as we drove in and Antonio stopped the car outside the house.As the gentleman he is he stepped out and walked around to my door to open the car door for me as he

    Everyone gasped in shock as they all turned to the person he was pointing at.Emilia. I wasn't wrong after all.“You're crazy, me? He's lying!" Emilia said as she stood from her chair looking at her mother,“There must be a miss up somewhere, my daughter wouldn't try to kill anyone," her mother said as she quickly rushed to her daughter's side. I sat down quietly as I watched the drama unfold.“You sent me, stop lying, you wanted me to go to prison alone but I won't suffer for your sins while you're here with your family enjoying yourself," the man said with venom as the officer commanded one of his men I hadn't noticed to take him away. Emilia’s eyes narrowed as she looked at me with anger.“Is this your way of paying me just because we don't get along? You're going to send me to prison for something I didn't do?” I didn't give her a response, I just watched her just like the rest of my family were watching in confusion.“This can't be happening, my daughter wouldn't try to kill any

    I almost broke into sobs at the moment but I controlled myself as I quietly stood up from the bed and walked to the balcony.I turned to Antonio who was still sleeping before dialing the unknown number. It rang several times but there was no response.“Please, please," I whispered as I tried again and the person finally picked but didn't say anything.“Please don't hurt him, I'm begging you, please," I said as I rubbed my head while trying to push back tears.No response came and then the call ended. I was about to call again when a message popped up from the number, it was an address.‘Meet me at the old harbor house, South Cliff road. Come alone or he died,’ Why? Why did they have to involve him?‘Okay, I'm coming, please don't hurt him,’ I typed before I sent the message. I wiped my eyes as I tried to compose myself but as my eyes looked at the pictures of Rodrigo beaten and bruised I knew I didn't have time.The only friend that has been there for me is suffering, all because so

    “Why…why are you doing this?” I asked as I looked at the asshole from highschool. Guess he hasn't changed, he was still an asshole.“Let us go and I'll give you whatever you want," I said and he threw his head back and laughed, the sound dark and filled with malice.“Oh honey, I already got what I want, you in this room is what I want, you don't know how excited this makes me," he said with a sinister smile as he moved to the corner of the room, then he brought a chair as he turned to me.“Sit," he commanded but I shook my head and immediately he brought out a gun and pointed it at me before pointing it to Rodrigo. “Don't test me, sit,” he said and I grudgingly stood up as I walked to the chair and sat down." See, that wasn't so hard,” he said as he turned to Rodrigo and started walking to him."Leave him alone,” I said but he didn't listen as he walked to Rodrigo and started untying him. He removed the rope from Rodrigo's wrists then he pointed a gun at me.“Stand up…” he commanded

    Adrian held up the jacket that was strapped with a bomb as he looked at me with a smirk.“You like my surprise don't you?" He said as he chuckled and then he started walking towards me but Rodrigo quickly stood up and stood in front of me.“Stay back!" He growled in anger, his voice hard and deadly despite the situation we were in.Adrian threw his head back and laughed, before he turned back to Rodrigo.“I guess you want to do it yourself," he said as he stretched out the jacket to Rodrigo. “Take," "You're fucking crazy,” Rodrigo spat as he stretched out his hands shielding me. “I'm not going to repeat myself, take the fucking jacket and wear it on her," he said, his voice cold sending a shiver down my spine."That. Is. Not. Going. To. Happen.” Rodrigo said. The room was thick with tension, one that could be sliced through with a blade. “You really don't want to test my patience, you either wear it on her or you…” "You're going to have to kill me first before that would happen, b

Antonio leaned down as he claimed my lips in a hot kiss.I could hear Rodrigo and Leo whistling as Antonio hand held my waist pulling me closer but I had to quickly pull away although he didn't want to leave me.“People are watching babe," I said and he chuckled against my lips before pulling away.“I love you, I love you so much," he whispered as I looked into his eyes wondering how I got so lucky.I turned to the congregation and threw my bouquet and it fell on Rodrigo's lap. I couldn't help but laugh.“I don't even have a girlfriend," Rodrigo said with a groan and everyone burst into laughter.

    I woke up with an unbearable pain shooting up my shoulder and I groaned before trying to sit up but firm hands held me softly preventing me from standing up.“Hey, hey, there's no need to stress yourself, just rest,” I couldn't help but smile as I opened my eyes to see my husband's eyes staring at me with concern,"Am I in heaven?” I whispered, my voice barely above a whisper, and he chuckled but quickly stopped himself as a frown took over his face."Why are you so stubborn?” he said with a sigh as he took my hand and dropped a kiss. “I couldn't just hide and let you face them alone, I needed to be there for you, remember we have to do everything together," I said as I tried to raise my hand to touch his face but I couldn't.“Stop trying to do anything, just rest, okay?” he said as he brushed his fingers through my hair."What about…" my chest tightened as I thought about how everything that had been happening to me has been my mother's doing, and no matter what she did a part of me

    'NO!! Lilly!!'Time froze as I heard the sound of the trigger being pulled. My heart stopped, waiting for the deafening bang that would end everything. But... nothing. There was no shot.Lilly stood there trembling, her breath shallow, but alive."How? Why the fuck is there no bullet in my gun?!" Veronica Lilly's mother screamed, frantically checking the weapon in her hands.That was the moment my wife snapped back to her senses. With strength I hadn't seen in her before. Lilly pushed her mother with a force so fierce it sent Veronica sprawling to the ground. But there was no time to celebrate her bravery.The man holding Rodrigo down reacted instantly, lifting his gun and firing at Lilly. She ducked just in time, the bullet narrowly missing her.Everything descended into chaos.The door burst open, and the reinforcements I had been waiting for finally stormed in.“Get down!" one of the officers shouted, his gun trained on Adrian.Adrian froze for a moment, his wild eyes darting aroun

    The room became dead silent and it was like everyone held their breath as I turned to Lilly before turning to Rodrigo..“Stay here," I said and was about to stand up but Lilly held my hand shaking her head.“I heard that there was a party here and I brought friends," a familiar voice said from outside and I turned to Lilly who had her eyes wide in shock,“She followed you," she mouthed as she stood up before turning around in confusion and I held her hand stopping her. I knew I was going to be followed but I didn't know who was going to follow me. I didn't know that Lilly's mother was the mastermind behind everything but I knew that someone might have been watching me in case my wife was alive so I had everything planned out.“Do you trust me Lilly?" I said as I held her shoulders trying to calm her down from how panicked she looked. “She's out there Antonio, there's no way out of this, she's going to kill us," she said as her eyes welled up in tears but I shook my head.“Rodrigo do

    Thank God she was alive. My wife was alive. The thought of it made me smile but I had to remind myself that I made a promise. I couldn't let anyone know that she was alive, if she was telling me to keep it a secret there must be a reason. I took a breath trying to calm myself down before I opened a room door and walked out of the room, closing the door behind me.The house was quiet as everyone was sleeping. I quietly climbed down the stairs not wanting to make any noise as I made my way to the door but just as I was about to walk out the house, I heard a noise and stopped. I slowly turn only to be met with Lilly's mother. She yawned as she looked at me with half asleep half awake eyes.“Why are you still up son?” she asked, her voice filled with concern."I just wanted to go out for a drive, I don't feel good being in here without my wife, this house reminds me of her so much," I said with a sigh and she moved close to me and then without warning she hugged me. “I know how you fee

    Sleep felt foreign to me, I couldn't sleep, couldn't bring myself close to my eyes. The hollowness in my chest was one that could only be filled by my wife's presence. I turned from the balcony to the bed wishing that I would see her sitting on the bed and everything was just a terrible nightmare. But it wasn't, she wasn't on the bed nor did I know where she was. I have long silenced the voice that was telling me to just give up that my wife was dead. I couldn't give up, I had to keep hoping, praying that she was alright, that I'll find her. I closed my eyes as I did a silent prayer hoping that God would be merciful to me and bring me my wife. I wasn't the best person, yet I still wasn't the worst. I turned away from the balcony as I walked into the room towards the bed. My eyes were heavy but sleep was a luxury I couldn't afford. Sleep had cost me my wife. I rubbed my head burying my face in my hands. “Lilly, why would you do this to me? Why would you walk into danger? Didn't

  • Forced Marriage To The Billionaire   Chapter 110- MOMENT OF SILENCE

    It's been two days—two days without my wife and I didn't want to believe what they told me, I didn't want to believe that my wife could be dead.I felt hollow, lifeless—like a man whose soul has been ripped out of him. She couldn't be gone. I didn't want to accept that I'll never see her face again.But the words of the officers kept ringing in my head and it was horrifying to think she might have died in the explosion. But there was no corpse. She was alive somewhere out there, maybe she was even scared and alone. I don't know.I rubbed my face with a sigh. This is all my fault, if I had been awake like a caring husband should, I would have noticed when she left, but instead I was sleeping while my wife would have been out there fighting for her life. The police were still looking for the person who might have sent that message to my wife. They were able to get a hold of her phone and she had left because her best friend's life was in danger. I don't know if I should be jealous that

    I stood up as a silent determination filled me, my wife could be in there and they were stopping me from going to get her, I didn't care that I was going to get hurt—I didn't care that I was going to die, all I wanted was to see her.I looked to my left to see one of the officers looking distracted as they searched around. Leo seemed to be in shock, it was the perfect opportunity.I bolted, running towards the side of the building that the fire hadn't reached, I wasn't thinking, but I didn't care.“Antonio!" Leo called, his voice filled with fear as he ran after me, but I didn't stop. But just before I could throw myself into the building, I was pushed once again to the ground and right in time before the flame falling from the burning house could fall on us.“Why are you fucking stopping me?! Let me go! If they can't go in there, I can! My wife…my wife!” I choked out as Leo dragged me away from the building. “Listen Antonio, I know how you feel, but going into that fire isn't going
