FrancisThe little stunt Bree pulled almost put us in trouble. How sure were we that Melissa never heard everything she was saying? And she mentioned me spilling the truth when I was drunk.‘If Melissa heard anything, she wouldn't have taken it lightly. All hell would break loose there,’ my inner self was doing a good job consoling me.Damnit, I hit the steering wheel. “How could I be so stupid? I always have issues while drinking. My mouth never seemed to close.”I kept thinking, how could I salvage this situation? Bree dares not open her mouth, she wasn't exactly a fucking saint too. She would do anything to get Alexander under her, that's why it felt so easy to blackmail her. The Thatchers' would be so disappointed knowing whatever she did.I dialed that number again, he still wanted me to finish Alexander off. Whatever business he had with Alexander wasn't something I should concern myself with. I needed her and I needed that money.The line clicked, I had no idea when. My thoughts
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 69: ALEXANDER IS MAKING PROGRESS
MelissaI couldn't say that I was starting to give up on him. I'm his wife, I should always stick by him. He has the entire money in the world to have the plug on him for the rest of his life. Even if his money defaulted, my parent's money can never default.The director has given me a temporary leave until Alexander recovers but I was still stubborn. I love my husband more than my work but I was going to be making his healing process slower by crying everyday.“How's he doing?” Janet squeezed my shoulders a bit. I had no idea when she came in. I've been drowning in my sorrows for so long.“He-he’s just there,”I threw my hands forward, wiping the strings of catarrh coming down from my nose. “I have no idea how, he's just laying there and it breaks my heart so much.”“You've been crying too much, princess,” she purposely called me that word; knowing that, that would make me laugh. Well it worked, I bursted out into a small laugh.“Thank you,” I said. “Thank you so much.”She raised her
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 70: I KNOW YOU ARE NOT PREGNANT
Lady SeleneCarlos and I were resting by the pool when Melissa's call came in. It felt surreal, a gentle smile appeared on my face as soon as I saw it. She rarely called and whatever this was, it felt good.“Are you going to pick that up or not?” My husband's voice infiltrated my thoughts.“O-oh yes, I will,” I grabbed my phone and before I picked it, it dropped.Her call entered again, almost immediately. “Hi Melissa, how are you doing?”“I'm doing great,” she answered with a scratchy voice from the other side. I wondered if she had been crying again.“Have you been crying again? Where are the kids? Are they with you?”“No they are away for the lessons, I'll pick them up later. I came to sit with Alex for a while.”“That's so sweet my love,” a smile unconsciously appeared on my face. “How are you holding up? How is he?”A long deep sigh followed after my question. It wasn't a good one and instantly my motherly instinct kicked in.“Melissa, what is wrong? Is something wrong with Alexa
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 71: STAY AWAY FROM MY HUSBAND
MelissaIt seemed that the heavens were with me and my kids. Doctor Henry had informed us that Alexander was responding faster to treatment, his eyes weren't just open but now he could move his eyeballs around and sometimes groan at whatever we said. That alone cleared all the tears stored away in my tear gland. We joked around and played, even though he could only do brief movements, it gladdened my heart.“Presently he's in a minimally conscious state,” Doctor Henry said. “With his present rate of improvement, in a couple of weeks he should be better. Just remember my rules; no tears, no sad stories. We need him to be up and agile in no time.”I did the next thing that registered itself in my head. I shook his hand and drew him in a tight hug. “I'm so sorry for that,” I pushed my falling hair behind my ears and smiled. “Thank you so much for all your help, I'm really grateful.”“It's no problem, Your Highness,” he bowed a little and turned away almost instantly.I absorbed my gasp a
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 72: ALEXANDER IS AWAKE
MelissaI stood in front of the class, taking them on the concept of art. It was a beautiful and lovely day, my spirit was uplifted. Like something great was going to happen.“So I believe that we've once talked about the concept of art,” I began, walking around the classroom. “So I'm going to talk about one very important part that every artist must have. Can anyone guess which aspect that is?”“Contextual?” A voice came from the back of the class.“By contextual what do you mean?”“Like it can be influenced by historical, cultural or even personal context.”A new grin appeared on my face, proud of my students. “That's a very good point Jaden but not exactly where I was going. Any other person to try?”“Aesthetics?” another student, Charlotte said.“Come on Charlotte, every art is beautiful in the eyes of its beholder. No matter if the world claims it's ugly. Every art created is beautiful, do not forget that.”No one offered to try again, so I decided to continue my teaching.“You k
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 73: BREE INTRODUCES HERSELF AS MRS PIERCE
Lady SeleneWe had no idea that Alexander would be able to communicate with us fully today. Bree as usual took her self appointed job most seriously and when Alexander finally regained himself and lost whatever memory he had, she had to introduce herself as his wife. What an effrontery.Immediately we got home, she wouldn't leave Alexander's place and both of them huddled up together in front of us.I was burning with anger, my husband was dying of disgust. Felix's emotions were hard to read, he was one who kept his emotions hidden. After trying both methods of making her see reasons why she should let them be, she decided to do this.Melissa's phone went unanswered, maybe if she had picked up earlier, all these wouldn't happen. But now wasn't the time to be throwing blames at her, she has to make sure the kids are fine and also keep her sanity.The door opened and I traced her eyes to the scene that welcomed her. I could see her almost shattering from the inside.“Wh-wh-what is going
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 74: I AM ALEXANDER PIERCE
AlexanderSince I couldn't trust my memories, I decided to accept whatever was told to me. And the fact that Mimi and Carl did not deny, I believed it to be true. Immediately the door opened and a long dark haired lady with blue eyes walked in, my heart raced faster. She was looking confused and heartbroken at the same time.Was she one of my admirers before now? She is so devastated seeing the current position my wife and I are in.I tried to think about it but nothing reasonable came through. Before I could blink twice, Mimi was dragging her in, they stayed a while and I took that as a cue to really talk to Bree.“Are you really sure she's just a family friend? She looks like she was expecting more than what she met.”“Well my dear husband,” Bree's hand smooched my chest through my cloth. “Who are you going to believe? Me or her?”I forced a smile out of my mouth, stroking her cheeks. “You, my dear.”“Good,” she said and rested herself on my body.My thoughts were rummaging with on
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 75: A LITTLE GIRL FROM MY MEMORY
AlexanderFinding her place wasn't as hard as I thought, all I did was log the address given to me by Mimi into the GPS, and voila, I found my way.I straightened my t-shirt and trousers, ruffling my hair just the way I liked it. The way I used it to sweep ladies under their feet those days I was in college.I rang the doorbell and waited patiently for the beautiful lady who was going to answer from the other end.“Albert check who's at the door,” I heard her voice from inside. That must be one of her kids. A flash of memory went through my head but I wasn't understanding. It felt like déjà vu, like I've experienced something of this before. Not to ruin my date with a headache, I debunked it and focused on the task at hand.“Daddy,” the little boy screamed and jumped into me, making me catch him just in time.Upon hearing his scream, 2 other kids scurried out and found their spots at my legs.“Daddy?”“Daddy is back,” they whined happily and shoveled me inside.Miss Dawson was with an

AlexanderI had the biggest round table made yesterday, with so many chairs. We wanted a large family meal with everyone we had come in contact with that year except the people who were behind bars. Mrs Dawson was closest to us, so I had her picked up myself. Janet, Maddy, Sally, Jayson, Andrew; were all invited from Carlton. I had my private jet go pick them up. It was a very beautiful sight.The chefs cooked exotic meals and everyone looked forward to eating together.Knowing the table wouldn't be able to get inside, we placed it under the tree in my yard. Everyone got to get a room to themselves and even though the house was rowdy and noisy, it still made a lot of sense.“The table is ready and being set, come on out everyone,” the kids ran around the house, bellowing this information.Everyone trooped out of their rooms, laughing and talking with one another. One by one, we sat at the table and the empty chairs were moved away by the staff.I stood up, raising a glass cup and a for
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 115: MARRY ME AGAIN
AlexanderEverything was starting to happen the way I wanted it to be. A very big happy loving family, with no issues or any form of bad blood amongst us. Yet I still dreamed of doing one beautiful thing, getting married to Melissa properly. I had asked for her hand in marriage again from her parents and they had given me their full support. Deep down I know that Melissa would love to start afresh with me again but I just wanted her to know some disturbing things from my life.I admired the diamond ring I got for her the day before yesterday. I had solely made sure that was all I did yesterday—find a wedding ring that is befitting for my woman.My ears caught the whiff of footsteps and I quickly hid the ring case.She sank into the bed beside me, rubbing my face. “Hey Alexander Pierce, I've been looking for you all over the house. Are you sure you are fine?”“Of course,” I gave a small smile. I didn't have the courage to look her in the eyes and she noticed it. To her, it might feel l
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 114: RELINQUISHING MY PROPERTIES
BreeA bowl of popcorn sat graciously on the table as we munched on it. Myself and the trio were binging a popular TV series. The remote was yanked from Albert's hand as he was the one controlling everything.“Hey,” he turned around screaming, he toned down his voice immediately he saw who got the remote from him.“Excuse us,” Alexander sat with Melissa beside me. Lady Selene walked in with Sir Carlos and just like that the kids found their way inside.It was a suspicious gathering. I looked from left to right but all their attention was on the TV. “I think I'll go inside with my buddies too,” I said, standing up.“No sir down Bree, you are needed here. Not with them,” Alexander said. Reluctantly, I sat. “Well, will someone be kind enough to explain the sudden strictness on your faces and the gathering?”He tuned the TV set from one station to another and he finally settled for one. It was a news channel, James and Melissa's foster father were being sent to jail.Judge: “James Talon
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 113: WE LOVE YOU BREE
BreeIt's been 3 days since I last went to the police station. Alexander and Melissa were back home and everything and everywhere has been lively—back to how it used to be. I was still sulking about my visit, I was hating myself for it. The more I thought about it, the angrier I became with myself. I locked myself in my room, not letting anyone see me or talk to me. Aiden was smart enough to know that I didn't want to be seen so he always delivered my food through the space under the door. Everyone tried to talk to me but I wasn't letting them in.As usual that day, I sat in my bed, moping into space, still in my current situation before I heard the impossible.“Please break this door down, it's my house. I have a lot of them and I'll just have this repaired instead if everyone chose to stay here.I didn't believe what I heard. A few strikes at the locks and the door was forced open. I maintained my position and didn't move an inch.Melissa ran forward first, hugging me without mindi
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 112: SEEKING CLOSURE GONE WRONG
BreeWith a black hoodie over my head, hiding the plasters that were still on my face, I snuck out of the house to the main road. Boarding a taxi to the police station, I was just so grateful that Melissa and Alexander weren't back from their trip. The kids and Lady Selene are today, sleeping I guess. That can only explain why the house was extremely silent before I left.No matter how much I tried to take my mind off it, I just wanted to see him. The man that called himself my biological father, the man that killed my mother just because he envied a set of people with generational wealth.“Hi good morning,” I greeted the first officer I came in contact with. “I'm here to see James Talon.”“Please sign here while I bring him out for you,” he pushed the visitor's signing book to me. “What's your name?”“Bree.”“Bree what?”I didn't know which one was appropriate. Whether to say Bree Thatcher or Bree Talon, none of them was settling right with me at the moment.“Just say Bree,” I half s
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 111: NO MORE BAD BLOODS
Melissa With the car seat lowered to the back, I desperately sought sleep. Alexander and I were home alone with the staff, we refused to sleep on time and played around like kids till the early hours of the morning. I wondered how he got up so early without a trace of sleep on his face, I guess work had made him get accustomed to it.I felt a hand on my face, pinching my nose and my ears. In a sleepy voice, I begged.“Oh God Alexander, let me have a little nap before we get to our destination, please,” I begged.“That isn't going to work on me,” he taunted. “Remember you wanted to play last night and I indulged you. You forget the fact that I'm a businessman and I'm used to staying awake.”I flung my hands out tiredly, signifying my surrender. “Oh the mighty Alexander, I give up. Let thy maiden enjoy her beauty sleep.”He chuckled, finally considered my request and let me be, diverting all his attention to the road. I heard him start rhyming with some words.“Wake up Melissa, we are
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 110: ONE DOWN, ONE TO GO
MelissaI sat behind the other side of the glass with a straight face, waiting for the person I was supposed to meet. Immediately she came and found her seat, I picked up the phone.“Heard you left Carlton with your family, did you come to see me because you miss me? Didn't hubby come along with you?”“I can see that your intel is still as good as ever. Even while in prison you have information about the outside world,” I said. “Your genital meet and greet business really proved useful.”She wasn't expecting me to get back to her that way, her face was riddled with shame and pain.“Ouch, I think I took it too far. My apologies, I didn't come here for that.”She sighed. “No need to beat around the bush, tell me why are you here?”“To let you know that I hold no grudges against you. You did what you had to because you were in love with my husband. Apologies, scratch that. You were obsessed with my husband Alexander Pierce. You let yourself be controlled by a man who didn't even mean wel
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 109: REUNITING HER WITH HER HUSBAND
Melissa“Are you sure you want to do this mother?” All of a sudden I wondered why she wanted to see her husband. But I guess it was a fair thing to ask for.“Yes Melissa, I want to see him,” she smiled. “I missed him so much. Even though we would see some place where I can't touch him or hold him, I still want to see his beautiful face. He's everything to me.”I didn't understand what was going on in her head, even if I tried.“Mother, he sent you to a nursing home by himself, do you remember that at all?” I said, trying to make my point. “He left you alone.”Without any argument, still with a calm face and voice, she said. “I know that, I know exactly what he did to me. But he's the love of my life, he’s everything I have and everything I've always had. So if I throw it all away because I'm mad at him for throwing me in a nursing home, then I'll be miserable for the rest of my life. Besides I met beautiful people there, beautiful people who made the days I spent there. It's not like
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 108: SURPRISE!!!
MelissaAs we got closer to the hospital, I brought out my phone and saw that I had missed several calls from Lady Selene. “Alex, let me see your phone,” with his eyes still on the road, he brought it out and handed it over to me.“What's the problem? Is everything good?”“We've missed Lady Selene's call, multiple times,” I said. “I hope she doesn't break our head as soon as we get there.”“Maybe she missed us.”I rolled my eyes at him. “You flatter yourself too much Mr.”The first person to welcome us as soon as we walked the corridors of the hospital was Lady Selene. Her face radiated so much joy and happiness.“Where have you guys been? I've been calling your phones all day. Bree is awake and she's fine,” she jumped into Alexander's arms. “And the kids?”“You know as usual, bombarding her with so many things that had happened while she wasn't awake,” she said, so casually.I hurried into her ward with Mara in front of me. “She should be resting, no one is allowed to disturb her,
