Married To The Crippled CEO Chapter 23 (Hopeless)
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’

Dexter POV“What?” I asked, and she glared at me.“She divorced you and left Dexter,” she repeated, and I chuckled. Aurora would never do that. She has no reason to.“Did you force her?” I asked, and Mother looked at me, betrayed, and she scoffed.“How dare you accuse me of such things? She has been drugging you. How could I stand there and allow her to drug you? We got her married to you, and I have all right to ask her to leave,” she snapped, and I wasn’t even hearing all that she said. The only thing I heard was leave.“Did you force my wife to sign the papers and leave our house?” I asked, unknown anger growing in me, and she looked at me, surprised and confused. “Ever since she came into your life, you have changed. You no longer checked up on me; you no longer did what you used to do. My son has changed so terribly. When was the last time you took me out on a vacation? When was the last time you bought me gifts? How dare you embarrass me at the party by giving her something so

Dexter POVIt’s been a week and no news yet about Aurora. Someone tampered with the surveillance; there are no clips of the cars passing. Everything was shut down for an hour, so I don’t know where she is. I confronted my mother about the camera, which led to a big fight. Father tried to calm me down; Brandon was trying to defend her, but I know she has something to do with it, and her parents haven’t been helpful. It’s like they don’t even care. I am losing my shit; I can’t eat because I have been worried if she has eaten or if she is sleeping well. I basically eat so I don’t pass out, not to satisfy my hunger.I remembered some cars passing that day; if I had known Aurora was inside, I would have stopped immediately. Everything seemed so planned, the work issue. They called me for an emergency, and getting to the office, the emergency was something they could have all handled. Mother planned everything, which makes me think Aurora might be in danger. How much hate did she harbour fo

Third Person POVRonald and Grace both knew they were fucked up after their son, Richie, started speaking. He has never been in support of what they did to her, but he only kept quiet because they threatened him. But today, the threat seems no longer to be working; their secret is about to be out in the open and that in front of the King’s. He was the last person they wanted to offend; they never thought he was going to fall for her charms; they thought he was going to treat Aurora worse than they ever did, but on the night of the party they were shocked to find them acting like a lovely couple. She kept stuffing her face, and he kept looking at her with a smile on his face; he laughed at the most stupid thing she did, and they were more shocked to see him getting her something so priceless. No doubt, the young King was head over heels, and Grace didn’t want it. She never wanted her to be happy when her daughter is yet to have the life she wants her to have, so she planned it al

Third Person POVThe city felt so quiet, everyone still digesting the breaking news of the Brown family. They always wondered why they hid their second daughter from the spotlight; at least everyone knows the reason now. Maya ran down the hallway, her heart beating. She has been jealous of her daughter-in-law; Dexter always pays attention to her and tries to make her happy. She was so jealous and angry when he got her that jewellery, and she knew her son was in love; she didn’t want to start dealing with that. So Aurora had to go. When Grace came to meet her, she was glad they both had the same goal. But Maya didn’t expect her to do that. The guards sent her the video, and she was shocked to see her in that condition. The abuse has definitely been going on for a while. She immediately left the house, heading to the hospital. Maya knew she had fucked up badly; her son knows everything after she denied knowing her whereabouts. Now she is in danger. She saw her husband sitting down, and

Aurora POVDexter paid rapt attention as the doctor checked me. It looked like he was the one who was sick, and I couldn’t help but smile.“Do you feel any discomfort lying on your back?” the doctor asked.“No,” I replied, and he nodded his head. I was resting on the pillow.“She is perfectly fine; she is recovering well. She needs to eat, though, and she would sleep a lot because of the medications,” he said. I feel tired; I am not sure I can lift my finger. “Okay, we will get her something,” he said, pressing his phone. I can tell he was ordering food. Everyone knows hospital food is trash.“I will take my leave now,” he said after he left. I just slumped on the bed, looking at the ceiling. I would love to drink the vegetable soup my boss makes. Dexter continued tapping on his phone.“What would you like to eat?” he asked. I sighed.“Soup, made by my boss,” I said.“I could order from his restaurant,” he said, and I breathed out.“It’s not on the menu,” I said, feeling so tired. I

Aurora POV“She is healed nicely and ready to go home,” the doctor said, and I breathed a sigh of relief. I am tired of staying here; the smell and white paint is choking up on me.“Thank you, doctor,” Dexter said, and the doctor smiled. He turned to me.“Take it easy on yourself, eat healthy, and take your drugs. You are not totally healed yet, but we had to discharge you,” he said, and I nod my head.“I would be sure to do that,” I said, and Dexter shook his head at me.“I will take my leave now,” he said, and I smiled as he left. After he left, I came down from the bed, stretching my back. The nurses had to clean me up and assist me in visiting the restroom; it’s tiring. “Let’s go,” I said, wearing the black palm he got for me, which is a bit oversized. “So energetic,” he mumbled, carrying our bag. Well, it’s just us here; Luca left some hours ago. He has been bringing us food throughout the week, and I have never been so thankful. Mr. King stopped coming some days ago. He left t

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
Married To The Crippled CEO Chapter 39 (Believe In Revenge)
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
Married To The Crippled CEO Chapter 38 (A Devious Plan)
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
Married To The Crippled CEO Chapter 36 (Filled With Regrets)
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

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?
