Ladies would swoon at the sight of him but he was married to Anette, his beautiful wife of 5 years. Their lives looked perfect from the outside with Anette being the perfect wife and Nathan being the loving husband. However, things were not as simple as that. Nathan Taylor was hiding things from Anette, he carried on with his life like everything was okay when in reality Anette would be crushed if she found out what he was up to. But what if she already knew? What happens when the 28-year-old Anette takes the law into her own hands and gives Nathan a little taste of his own medicine? ~ "Anette, I didn't think you'd find out about this I'm sorry." The woman said and Anette stared at her, a smile plastered on her face. "Oh don't worry sweetheart. There's nothing to apologize for. All is fair in love and war."

How to Keep a Husband Chapter 47
I knew what I had to do now. I wanted Alex to feel better. I wanted him to know that he could trust me with his feelings and emotions. The morning of the anniversary, I woke up before Alex and collected a bouquet of fresh, beautiful flowers I had ordered. Ruth said that Alex would always buy Brianna pink carnations. Those were her favorite flowers. The night before, I had already prepared a picnic basket. Then I went and added a few more things this morning. When I arrived home, Alex had already taken a shower and was eating the breakfast I had made before I left. “Good morning, Annie,” he said.“Good morning Alex.”“Where did you go?” He asked. “I got these,” I showed him a bouquet of flowers and his eyes widened. “Annie……what are you doing?” He avoided eye contact and dropped his fork. “I’m here with you. I want you to talk to me. This time around is a little tougher but I want to be here for you. Please let me in. It’s not always okay to handle these things alone. Trust me.”

After everything with Nathan and the drama with Paige and Alex, everything became calm. Alex and I returned to our usual routine of being in love with each other. There was something that was bothering Alex and I keep feeling like we were about to have another issue. I asked him a couple of times but he kept telling me that he was fine. I didn’t buy it. I couldn’t pinpoint exactly what the problem was but I needed to find out. I couldn’t keep asking him so I decided to do the next best thing. It was high time I paid his parents a visit. I got into the car and drove over to their home. I knew Alex wasn’t very close to his parents but maybe they knew something. A few moments after knocking on the door, it opened. A woman opened the door, she looked exactly like Alex and immediately I knew it was his mom. “Hi you must be Annette. Please come in.” She smiled. “Hello, it’s nice to meet you.” I greeted. “You’re just glowing with this pregnancy. Congratulations. It’s a shame when mar

Alex’s POVHer soft lips parted when she noticed me. Tears were cascading down her cheeks. She was too pretty to cry so why did she have to experience it so much. I wished for a better life for Annette, I wanted her happy all the time. When she told me about the kiss with Nathan, I was broken and hurt. How could she allow that to happen? I really couldn’t help the betrayal and anger I felt when I thought about it. But then I realized that she trusted me so much that she told me what happened and I knew she knew what the repercussions would be and she told me anyway. Nathan reached out to me a couple days ago and explained the situation. I knew my cousin well. I knew that he wouldn’t have given up Annie so easily. I knew that it wasn’t Annette’s fault. There she was, standing in front of me, surprise written all over her face. “Alex,” she whispered. “What are you doing here? This is not what it looks like,” she stated as more tears welled in her eyes. “I know.”“Nathan called m

“Why would you kiss Nathan?” Evie asked. “He kissed me, and the thing is, he said he needed closure, but I didn’t know how to react.” I sighed. “Maybe that’s all he needed to leave you alone. It’s going to be like a memory for him, you know. I can get why Alex is upset, though. Knowing you kissed someone else would make him upset, hurt, and angry, but he just needs some time to cool off, and he’ll be fine.” Christiana added. "Yeah, I guess you’re right, but my friend really shamed me for it. She attacked me. I knew it came from a place of hurt, but I can’t see her the same again.” “She’s probably cheating; that’s why she reacted like that.” Evie rolled her eyes. “I don’t know, but it really hurt me so much. She’s one of my best friends, and to hear her say that was painful.” “It’s okay, Annie. Forget about her. Besides, you have us now.” Evie placed a hand on my shoulder and gave me a comforting smile. Somehow, that made me feel so much better. The next few days were a blur, E

After I practically sprinted out of the restaurant, I sat in my car and tried to compose myself. I didn’t think Paige would go that far, not in my wildest dreams. I was hurt and confused. All I was trying to do was give her some advice, and she just threw my issue back in my face. Tiffany was ringing my phone, but I ignored her. I was in no mood to talk. I just wanted to be alone. I decided it was best to go back home and try to relax. But some part of me felt like she was right. I didn’t have to go over to Nathan’s house, and I shouldn’t have done that. As I pulled up to my home, I thought about Alex and what it meant to be with him. I knew I had to come clean and apologize to him. I just didn’t know how. After I got out of the car, I went inside and met Alex in the kitchen. He had already started dinner. "Hey, back so soon?" He smiled when he saw me. That smile made me shiver. Here he was, happy to see me, but I had betrayed him."Alex, we need to talk." I said."What's wrong

"Earth to Annette, are you okay?" Alex asked, and I nodded."Yeah, I'm fine." I forced a smile, and he frowned. "Annie, is something bothering you?" He pressed, and I sighed."I promise, I am fine. If something was bothering me,. I would have told you. I am sorry for worrying you, baby. I guess I am just excited for Evie to come out of the hospital this evening.""I know you guys are going to be great sisters." He smiled, and I nodded. "Aren't you going to meet with Paige and Tiffany for lunch?" He asked."Yes, I am. I have some catching up to do with them."How was I going to tell Alex about the kisses I shared with Nathan? How am I going to tell him that I didn't pull away? I just stood there, stunned. “Alex, there’s something I need to tell you,” I began, my voice barely above a whisper.He looked at me, his eyes filled with concern. “What is it?” he asked.“I…I ran into Nathan the other day,” I said, pausing to gauge his reaction.“And?” he prompted, his gaze never leaving mine

"Good morning, baby," Alex cooed as he rubbed my head. "How does breakfast in bed sound?""Sounds like a plan." I murmured as I took the tray. "This looks delicious." I smiled, and he nodded. "Of course it does. I made it." He winked, and I blushed. I couldn't get over how happy I was with Alex, and I was really glad our lives were back to normal. “Enjoy your breakfast, love,” Alex said, his eyes twinkling with affection.“I will, thanks to the chef,” I replied, playfully raising my coffee mug in a toast.He laughed, a sound that warmed my heart. “Anything for you, darling.”“Alex,” I began, pausing to take a bite of the perfectly cooked eggs. “This is... amazing. You’ve outdone yourself.”He beamed at the compliment. “Well, I had a good reason. I wanted to start our day right.”“And you have,” I assured him, reaching across the bed to squeeze his hand. “Thank you, Alex.”His smile widened, and he leaned in to plant a soft kiss on my forehead. “Anything for you, baby. Always.”"So

Alex arrived at the hospital shortly after. I was so excited to see him. "How's everyone doing?" He asked. "We're all good. I'm just very nervous about Evie. Also, Kathy passed away. Apparently, when we left her tied up, Mai shot her. She couldn't have made it." I explained. "Well, that's unfortunate. Mai is a cold-blooded killer, and she's never going to see the light of the day after what she did," Alex said. "Damn right, you are. She is borderline crazy and I never in my wildest dreams would think that she would take things so far."Nathan walked over to us. He looked like he was on the brink of tears. "Hey, can I talk to you guys for a second?" He asked, and we both nodded. "Alex, you're a good man. I know it doesn't mean anything, or it doesn't matter what I say, but I know you're going to be a great husband to Annette. I just wish that I didn't fuck up beyond repair. It's definitely heartbreaking to see her be with someone else. I fucked up our lives for a few moments of p

Annette's POV "If you make a fucking move, Damien is dead meat." I yelled. "Annie, what are you doing?" Damien asked as he tried to walk over to me. "Don't fucking move, Damien!" I snapped, and he stood in his place. Kenneth placed his gun in his pocket, much to everybody's surprise. "I know you're in the car, Mai. Get the hell out right now! Don't forget, I'm not afraid to go the distance. I'll kill Damien; if I have to, then I'll do the same for Alex and all my friends. So, let's settle this!" "Annie, what's going on?" Nathan asked, but I ignored him. A little while passed, and the door creaked open. Mai stepped out of the car. "Annie, just calm down, please. There's no need for violence." "I don't give a fuck, Mai. Tell Damien what you did!" "Mai, what did you do?" Damien asked, and she sighed. "It's not what it looks like. I promise you that." She walked up to him. "Wait, don't tell me, did you start this?" Damien gasped. "I know it looks bad, but that’s not how it is;

Annette's POV"Oh yeah! Right there, baby!" I moaned as Nathan's thrusts deepened.He held on to my waist as he slammed into me. My eyes rolled back into my head as a wave of pleasure washed over my body. I screamed, gripping the sheets as we came together.I panted as Nathan got off the bed and made his way to the bathroom."That was great." I sang happily as I rolled over on the bed."Do you want me to join you?" I asked but received no response, and in a moment I heard the shower turn on.A frown graced my features as I sat up on the bed. This wasn't the first time this happened, nor was it the third, fourth, or even fifth. This started happening very often to me. We would have sex, and then Nathan would not speak to me after like he normally would. It bothered me deeply. Was there something wrong with our relationship? When did it get this bad?I stared at the curtains and thought to myself."Marriage is a blessing, and love is a luxury." Those were the words of my late mother, an...
