Married To The Crippled CEO Chapter 17 (Eva)
Aurora POVThe party has been in a full swing, and everyone seems to be socialising. Well, everyone except my family. They have been giving me death stares since the party started. I saw Richie leave; he went to talk to some ladies. Richie is the only person in the family who never raised his hand on me or treated me badly, but he always ignored my existence. He is quite different from Liam.Liam is the first son and the one who is going to take over the Brown empire, and he is just like father. Richie prefers his simple life of ignoring his family and sleeping with the hottest models. He has been engaged in a lot of dating scandals and never seems to be stopping soon. “The way you eat, I am afraid for your stomach,” Dexter said, and I turned to him, swallowing the fudge cake.“I can’t help it,” I said, and he shook his head at me.“That is enough, Aurora, too much sugar,” he said, and I think he was right. I feel full now, so I will stop. I took a glass of water, drank it slowly, and

Aurora POVThe auction started, and everyone was quiet. I guess this is what people came for mostly. I only ever saw auctions on TV; I never thought I’d experience it, and it was intense. And the price? People are willing to pay for something so ridiculous looking for outrageous amounts. Is this how billionaires behave? Spending so much money on worthless things. Well, it is not worthless if they are paying so much for it. “And the last item we have on the list is this fifty-million-dollar ruby jewellery,” the announcer announced, and the jewellery was on the screen, and I gasped. I have never seen anything so beautiful; everyone was wowed. It is a beautiful ruby necklace with stones adorned on it. The pendant was a big gemstone, and I knew this piece of necklace was supposed to be worth millions.“We will start bidding from fifty million,” he said.“Sixty million,” a lady said, and I held myself from gasping. She jumped so high. “I want that necklace, Brandon,” I heard Eva say. Well

Aurora POVThe car ride was really quiet. I was so lost in thought. I was finding it hard to believe he would do that, and for what? I admired the jewellery like everyone else; I didn’t expect him to get it. I feel so bad; I have no idea what to say. Soon, we got home, and they wheeled him to his room, dropping the necklace on the table, and they left. He breathed out, closing his eyes as he tried to stretch.“My back is so sore,” he mumbled, and I just kept looking at him, standing beside the bed. His eyes opened, and he looked at me and sighed.“You look like you have a thousand things to say,” he said, and I breathed out.“I just feel awkward,” I mumbled, playing with my nails.“Me buying you a piece of the necklace is awkward?” he asked.“It’s not just a piece, Dexter. It is more than half a million. Why would you get it in my name?” I asked.“Because you looked like you liked it,” he said, stating the obvious. I sighed.“I don’t deserve it,” I mumbled, and he gave me a long look.

Aurora POVIt was the next day, and I tapped Dexter. He has been sleeping for so long; I made plans for us today, so I need him to be awake.“Wake up,” I said, shaking him. He grumbled, trying to turn his head.“Oh, no you don’t,” I snapped, holding his head.“What do you want?” he asked, his voice deep.“It’s past 10; you have been sleeping enough,” I said, and he sighed, opening his eyes. By the looks of him, you know he had an amazing sleep. His hair was all over the place, his face was moist, and his eyes looked tired. He looks like a mess, a hot mess.“It’s the weekend, Aurora,” he mumbled. I smiled.“Yes, that’s why we both have time to have fun,” I said. He raised his brows.“What fun?” he asked. I smiled, going to the wheelchair.“If you want to find out, you have to dress up,” I said, and he breathed out, rubbing his eyes. He listened to me anyway, taking some few minutes to get himself together, before he went to have his bath. I already picked out his clothes for him, and s

Aurora POVIt was evening, and I was carrying so many bags with Dexter looking at me. We got to his room, and I collapsed on the chair, breathing out heavily.“I am wasted,” I mumbled, closing my eyes as my back and legs felt so sore. After getting some food, we headed over to watch movies and then visited the mall. I had no idea malls could be so interesting. It was supposed to be window shopping, but I ended up doing so many things and buying things I didn’t need. He watched me all through, looking at me as I got fascinated by everything. Either way, I enjoyed myself. I don’t think I have ever had this much fun, but now I am exhausted.“Well, look at you,” Dexter said, sitting on the couch as he removed his shoes and socks. I sat up, looking at him.“Aren’t you tired?” I asked. He smiled.“I wasn’t the one walking around like a little kid on Christmas,” he said, and I rolled my eyes at him.“Are you hungry?” I asked, and he shook his head.“I don’t feel hungry,” he said, and I smile

Aurora POVIt’s been two weeks, and things have been going quite well. I made sure he takes his drugs regularly, and I also give him leg massages every night. His legs are not as numb, especially his left foot; he feels it a bit when I massage it, and we are both happy with the progress. He went to work because of an emergency, so I decided to visit Dr. James. I already told him about the progress, and he has been happy. We couldn’t help my grandmother, and I know helping Dexter with his legs was healing us both. I got home, just coming back from the hospital with more drugs, and I smiled. I need to start cooking him his dinner before he gets back. I walked inside and didn’t expect to meet Maya inside. I haven’t seen her since the party, and I totally forgot about her. She was seated on the couch with her legs crossed, and Mary was standing beside her with a smirk, and I knew something was about to go down.“Good evening, Maya,” I greeted, hiding my nervousness with a smile. She

Trigger Warning! A bit of abuse in the chapter!*******************Aurora POVWe got to the house, and the guards dragged me inside. I was panicking; the familiar smell, the familiar scenery—it was closing up on me. The house always felt cold, even on the hottest day; I never, for once in my life, ever felt happy going back. It wasn’t a home; it was like a cemetery with people living there. Every day in this house is my worst day. I never wanted to come back here; even if Dexter and I were to go our separate ways, I never wanted to come back. I wanted to start my life afresh and meet new people, but now I am back here, and this time, there won’t be any escapes.“Drop her,” my father’s cold voice said, and I was thrown to the floor harshly. I looked up slowly, and they were all there. Katie was smirking at me. Father looked at me coldly, Mother looked at me in annoyance, Liam was annoyed by my presence, and Richie couldn't care less about me. All different reactions.“Welcome back ho

Dexter POVI stared at the flowers, a soft smile on my face. I remembered the way she teased me this morning, telling me to be a good husband to her and buy her flowers. It was cute, and of course I wanted to make her happy. Ever since she came into my life, I have been happy. I don’t know what it is about her, but she just makes me so happy. She makes me want to be around her and let down my guard without regretting it. Before she came into my life, I remembered always being angry, angry at myself and the world. I felt I didn’t deserve what happened to me; my life was cut short in the twinkle of an eye. I was once desired by women, admired by men; I had a perfect life. I was a business tycoon, and I had a woman I was madly and overly in love with. I proposed to her; I wanted her to be mine forever. But it all comes crashing down. All the love I used to receive changed; I was the man in a wheelchair. It was hard dealing with the wheelchair, but I felt I still had my family; that’

Married To The Crippled CEO Chapter 40 (Weekend Gate Away)
I smiled, watching her sing along with the song playing on the radio. She was in high spirits and it made me happy. Aurora started classes about a month ago in a business school. I encouraged her to take the exams and I was surprised she was one of the best students to get a high score. I didn’t want to get her into the school using my name, I wanted her to do it with her name and do it the right way. It would be an achievement for her if she achieved everything she wanted to achieve by working hard for it and she hasn’t disappointed me. I see how she always studies, always heads deep in her books and I fear to come to the realization that I am married to a bookworm. She study’s all the time and also asks me a lot of questions which I am happy to answer. When she graduates, she is going to be an unstoppable business woman and I just can’t wait for her growth. “I didn’t know you knew all this country music,” I said, looking at her. She giggled; she was radiating happiness and glowing

Dexter POV“Mrs. King!” I heard my secretary yell as they both entered my office. He was trying to stop her. I looked at Mom, and she looked angry; Eva and Brandon were behind her, and my secretary looked red in the face, breathing out harshly.“Did you slap my secretary?” I asked calmly.“I will do more than that if you don’t put a stop to this nonsense!” she yelled, and I breathed out, turning to my secretary.“I apologise, Noah. Please, take some minutes off,” I said, and he nodded his head, breathing out.“Thank you, sir,” he said, walking away. I turned to Mom.“Mom, you know I have zero tolerance against work bullying or any type of bullying in general. What gives you the right to lay your hands on my worker?” I snapped, keeping my temper at bay.“Tell me why I am finding out on the news that your brother has been removed from office?” she snapped and I scoffed.“So that is what this is about? That is why you brought your son and his bitchy wife to my office,” I said, looking at

Dexter POVThere was a small knock on my office door, and I looked up.“Come in,” I said. The door opened and my secretary walked in.“Mr. Brown is here, sir,” he said, and I smiled, closing the file I was working with.“Let him in,” I said. He nodded his head, walking out and soon, Mr. Brown walked in. He looked nervous seeing me, but I smiled at him slightly.“Good afternoon, Mr. King,” he greeted. I stretched my hand, and he took it.“Good afternoon, please have your seat,” I said, pointing to the seat in front of me. He nodded his head, taking his seat, and he breathed out.“Thank you for honoring my call,” I said, looking at him calmly.“There is no way I would have ignored your call, sir. Why have you called me here?” he asked nervously. I smiled.“No need to be nervous, Mr. Brown. I just called you here for business. We have to keep the agreement of the contract we made, don’t we?” I asked, and he looked at me suspiciously. He has the right to be suspicious. For a few months no
Married To The Crippled CEO Chapter 37 (Wild Nasty Thoughts)
Aurora POVThe ride back home was silent and when we got home, Dexter collapsed on the bed tiredly. I looked at him and his eyes were closed, slowly massaging his temple. I know what happened today must have been overwhelming for him, even though he pretended not to care. You can’t ignore something like that. It will come back to bite you. I felt for him. Maya really didn’t care about him. She wasn’t even remorseful, she only cared about being caught. “Are you okay?” I asked, quietly. He sat up, took my hand, and dragged me to him. He breathed out, hugging me tightly to his chest. “I am better now you are with me,” he said, and I chuckled, hugging him properly.“Do you need anything? Hungry or want to wash up?” I asked, and he stayed quiet. Then he breathed out.“Why aren’t you asking how I am feeling?” he asked, and I smiled.“I know how you feel, Dexter. You deserve to feel that way, but I hope you are strong enough to brush it off. Humans will always disappoint, they are selfish

Third Person POV“Congratulations, Mr King,” a man said, his hand wrapped around his wife, who was beside him.“Thank you, Mr and Mrs Smith,” Dexter replied, shaking hands with them. “Everything that happened was quite shocking. I didn’t know he was going to hand it over to you. Everyone thought it would be Brandon,” he said, and Dexter laughed calmly.“My younger brother is just as smart and capable of the position. It was just a change of plans. But thank you for your concern,” he said dismissively, and the man caught it. They said their last goodbyes and left. Aurora chuckled. Dexter seemed tired, and she was also tired of being on her feet.“You must be tired,” he said, taking her hand and pulling her to him.“Yes, I can’t feel my feet,” Aurora replied, and Dexter took her on his lap. He was sitting in his wheelchair as he had been on his feet for so long, it was starting to feel sour. “Dexter,” Aurora whispered as eyes turned on them and the media started taking more pictures.
Married To The Crippled CEO Chapter 35 (The New CEO)
Third Person POVCamera flashes widely as everyone tries to capture the new big news. It was the conference day when Julius King would announce the new CEO of the King’s empire. Everyone was excited; they were all smiles, especially Maya. Her son gets to finally be the CEO, something she has dreamt of for the longest. Now, she can finally put her plans in motion. Julius walked to the stage looking weak, and Maya stood beside him, acting like a caring wife. She was holding him tightly to keep him from falling. To the world, she was a doting wife, a wife who cares about her husband and his health. But they both knew it was fake; he couldn’t have believed Maya would do that to him. All he ever did was love her and give her everything she wanted, but she tried to ruin his life. All for some position, Brandon would have been rich with or without the title; she would have been able to afford all she wanted because he never deprived her of anything. She is greedy, and it’s sad he didn’t

Aurora POV“You are doing great,” I said, smiling at him softly as he lifted his right leg, holding me. It’s been around a month, and everything is back to normal. Dexter has been going to work these days, so when I got bored, I decided to resume in the restaurant. Luca was happy to receive me back at the restaurant, and I was so glad no one was asking me questions about everything that happened.Today is Sunday, and we decided to practice walking. We visited Dr. James yesterday for a check-up, and he gave us good news. He said the nerve in his leg was active, and Dexter confirmed he can feel the touches. So he should be on his feet soon, and I am so happy.“It’s starting to hurt,” he said, looking down at me. I didn’t realise how tall he was until he stood up. I looked so small beside him, and it gave me a sense of security.“Okay, we should stop for today,” I said, smiling at him as he limped to the bed while holding me, of course. He slumped on it, breathing out.“We must have over

Aurora POVDr. Kyle sat back down on the couch, and I just looked at them. How evil of them to come here and do that? At this point, she is really the one behind the accident. Why would she pretend to love him when she is the one causing the bigger damage?“Mr. King is perfectly fine; he just needs to keep taking his drugs,” he said to Maya, and I wondered, fine? He can’t walk, can’t see properly, has numerous headaches, and they think he is fine? Well, they don’t know he is feeling better now, but that’s the point. All those complaints, and he thinks he’s fine?“The drugs seem not to be working; can we have a change in drugs? Something to help him heal faster; it’s been years,” she said, looking concerned.“Yes, I thought about that. That’s why I brought better medication,” he said, bringing out some drugs in his box. He handed it over to Dexter, and he collected it, looking at the body.“Oh, that’s why you are our family doctor. You know how to think ahead, doesn’t he, son?” She ask
Married To The Crippled CEO Chapter 32 (Confirmation)
Annora POVIt’s been a month since everything went back to normal and I have no idea what is going on or what happened with my family. Dexter has remained quiet; knowing him, he won’t have left my family go scot free after what they did to me. His whole calmness about everything is surprising to me; he is not talking about his mother, nor is he talking about mine. I decided not to ask; right now I just need peace. We invited Dr. James about three weeks ago, and he came to check Dexter and also prescribe something for him. Dexter was so grateful he paid for all the services and also awarded him money to last him a lifetime. Dr. James refused, but after much pleading, he agreed to collect the gift, and of course, I was excited for him.“Kyle is coming over today,” Dexter said, working on his laptop, and I looked up.“Who’s that?” I asked. We are in the kitchen, preparing breakfast, and he is just by the corner, pressing his laptop.“My doctor,” he said, and I hummed.“Why is he coming?
