Chapter 19Lorraine I bobbed my head backward to contain my laughter, which I succeeded in doing. "You aren't serious, are you?" There was hardly any hint of playfulness on his face so I took it that he was serious, but the last thing I'd do is to go on a date with him. "It seems this is a bad idea so I'll just return to my office, but I won't have you loitering around during work hours." He said sternly. "I wasn't loitering." I said in my defense, contemplating on telling him about my encounter with Emilia. It concerned the both of us, so I went ahead. "Emilia suspects something." His eyes widened as he massaged his temples quickly and dropped his hand. "What exactly does she suspect?" "She thinks we are in a relationship." He said nothing else then walked away, his shoulders drooped, probably in disappointment. The day went by in a haze while I earnestly waited for dismissal time. It finally came so I greeted my colleagues goodbye and raced towards the gate. I'd passed thro

Chapter 20Dexter Why did I feel like I'd strained the already overstretched bond that was barely hanging on a thread? I knew how saucy my sister could be with paupers, but Lorraine wasn't one. She was the wife of a billionaire—my wife, yet she agreed to call herself a maid and there was nothing I could do about it. Seeing her all wrapped in Arnold's arm at the entrance that time filled me with a strange kind of feeling I feared to entertain. That moment, it took all my self-will and the reminder that we were in a formal place to stop me from landing an angry punch on his cheeks. No other man has the right to touch her apart from me. I was the only one who could make her body react to my touch even when she thought she didn't want me. I couldn't allow her to continue making a fool of herself so I returned to the sitting room to make sure that Victoria wasn't going overboard on her, and I almost regretted it because Emilia was seated on my chair with a gobsmacked expression on her
Marrying My High School Bully Is she your wife?
Chapter 21Lorraine A weary feeling of anxiety washed over me, knowing that it was the last day of training before the mini runway show. Today, we were to showcase what we had been practicing all along, then the models that should participate in the show would be shortlisted. That was where the anxiety stemmed out from. Victoria left with Emilia last night and ever since, the atmosphere between us has become more strained than before. My heart yearned to talk to him, even if it was the trivial conversations we used to have. Stefan came into the training room dressed in a long flowing gown with dolman sleeves. His nose, which I didn't notice was pierced, had a medium sized round ring on it. But his queer way of dressing didn't cause a dent to the beauty of his face. Maybe if he dressed more like a man, I'd make him my crush. "Good morning, everyone." He chirped with the same warm smile that he usually greeted us with. "Good morning, Stefan!" We chorused, then I added. "How was y

Chapter 22 Lorraine "Whatever relationship I have with her is none of your business. The only reason I allow you to hang around me is because of that conversation." He seethed. Against my better reasoning, I expected him to blurt that I was his wife. I mentally slapped my face because something was definitely wrong with me. She stomped her foot on the ground vehemently, trying to voice out words which remained stuck in her throat. Her jaw was clenched as if she was barely stopping herself from throwing a punch at Dexter. "You are so annoying." She said through gritted teeth. "You promised to do whatever I wanted, is this how you keep to your word?" Really? He made a promise to her after confessing that there was nothing between them? There and then, I realised that I'd been such a fool. Listening to their banters would do nothing to eliminate the pain I felt so I spun around and stormed off in search of a cafe. Loud footsteps sounded after me but I wasn't going to stop to list

Chapter 23Lorraine "Thank you very much, sir." I replied shyly after moving away from him quickly, wondering what pushed him to show a public display of affection. He dipped his hands into his pants and smirked. "You are very welcome." Then I realised what happened as his smirk stretched. His hug had two meanings: slowly, he wanted to show everyone that I was his. Secondly, he was truly happy for him. A lot would go down once we got home today. Stefan went on with the name calling while I engaged in an eye battle with him, not minding if others would be giving us a very serious scrutiny. I knew they liked him. Most of the models had gossiped about how they'd do anything to be on his bed because of how sexy he was. Sometimes, I smiled after hearing their conversations, knowing that it would never happen because I for one wouldn't allow it since I was his wife. Yes! The kind of jealousy that spurs through me whenever I see ladies outrightly seducing him couldn't be explained, a

Chapter 24Dexter There was a quick switch in the kind of hormones that rushed through me—the rush of testosterones had dwindled as my adrenaline level rose up. Our secret had been busted and it would be better if I just told her the truth now, seeing how livid she was. "Your maid, Dex?" Her eyes wide with incredulity. "Are you that horny that anyone can do the job for you?" She fired. I could feel it. My anger. It was building up already and the reasons I didn't act on them was because of my relationship with her and my stance on physical violence. "You have to tone it down, Victoria, she's my staff not yours." My voice was gruff and curt, causing her to flinch as she didn't expect my response. Lorraine, who was still tightly held in my arms, kept pinching me, whispering that she wanted to get down. I allowed her, knowing that she was anything but comfortable presently. Victoria slammed the front door shut then traipsed forward with her box. She dropped her bag on the sofa and
Marrying My High School Bully The event
Chapter 25LorraineFinally, the day that had given me restless nights since the last practice had arrived, and I couldn't deny that my anxiety had doubled. Alongside other models, I was seated on a wooden stool, having my face made up. My eyes were shut as my mind wandered in different directions. I didn't even know what to feel. I didn't know what to think. The excitement of being on the runway for the first time had fizzled out and it was replaced with a very strong fear of failure. There was no one to cheer me up amongst the crowd. Unlike others who would have their families clapping for them, I had no one. Absolutely no one. "You can open your eyes now, I'm done." The artist informed me and quickly I stared at the mirror in awe, my eyes popping at the reflection that greeted me. I was beautiful. I didn't need anyone's validation to be sure of how beautiful I was. The knowledge gave me strength that I could pull it off and slowly make a name for myself. "Thank you so much,"

Chapter 26Lorraine "What happened over there?" Dexter asked, breathing frantically. I took a cursory glance at his face to know if he was actually scolding me, but it was the opposite as his eyes held worry and concern all directed at me. He looked ready to beat up whoever caused that chaotic scene at the runway. I bit my lips and sighed, tired of the incessant frustration caused by people who were supposed to mind their business. "Someone set me up. That shoe wasn't my size." I admitted, relaxing on the back rest of the chair. A glint of disbelief crossed his features as he folded his arms. "Explain!" He snapped, his voice was low and dangerous, edgy at the same time. "I took off my shoes earlier because of how cranky I was. I don't know what happened around that time, but when I put it on again, I realised that it was slippery and on making a step I discovered that it wasn't my size." I paused, remembering a certain detail that might have caused the problem. "What?" He grum

Chapter 160ONE YEAR LATER "You look so ravishing," Mrs Gonzales cupped my made up cheeks and planted a kiss on my forehead. "Thank you, aunt." I beamed with a smile as the veil was set on my head while she left the room to attend to something else. Aunty Rosa, as I fondly called her, had become a part of the family. I made her the CEO of my company as she was more than capable of being a leader, and also, I wanted to compensate her for everything she did for my mother. I was fine with being a consultant and when she was ready to retire, I'd take over. Since we moved to Colorado, my life with Dexter had been all shades of fun. The happiness I craved for after losing my mother was restored, and never did a day pass without me thanking the universe for granting me my wishes. And today, after five months of having my twins; Nyla and Brian, I was ready to walk down the aisle and experience what a beautiful wedding felt like. I stood in front of the mirror and stared at how wel
Marrying My High School Bully A new beginning
Chapter 159Melissa I peered down at Dexter's sleeping face and sighed. Doctor Luca had constantly assured me that he would be fine, but I was yet to understand why he hadn't woken up already. If Leonardo had succeeded in killing him, I'd have resurrected his dead body and murdered him myself. Actually, I low-key wished that I was the one who shot him, but it didn't matter anymore because he was dead and gone. Staring at the tubes connected to his body caused goosebumps to cover my skin. He was in the situation because of me. My mind wandered as several thoughts filtered in and out of my head. Lilly had come earlier with Mary to visit him, but even her presence couldn't stir him up. No! He couldn't remain this way forever. He had to wake up. I took one of the chairs in the ward and sat beside him, entwining our fingers while I used my free fingers to caress his face lightly. He was still the most handsome man I'd ever seen, even in unconsciousness. "Cupcake, how are you
Marrying My High School Bully He didn't die
Chapter 158Melissa Blood drained from my face as the bullet went straight to his chest, causing him to slump on the ground. Leonardo pushed Lilly away and tried to break into a sprint, but he was gunned down by the cops who opened fire on him until his body was filled with bullet holes. If Dexter wasn't lying on the ground in the pool of his own blood, I'd have been rejoicing that the source of all my troubles was dead, but the sight of him in a lifeless state snuffed out any trace of happiness within me. "Get the ambulance, please!" I roared, my heart plummeting as blood gushed out from his mouth. I held his hands, my tears forming a wet mask on my face as I caressed his head. His eyes were shut, but I refused to believe that he was dying. I sat on the ground and placed his head on top of my neck, then I tore the hem of my dress and dabbed his chest with him to reduce the rate of the blood flow. All the while I did that, my heart skipped several beats and my fingers trembl
Marrying My High School Bully Let's end it
Chapter 157Dexter"You need to come back home now, sir, Leonardo is threatening to shoot the madam." Mary, my nanny, whispered with a note of urgency as if she was being restricted from talking. At the mention of his name, my heart skipped a beat and my palms became clammy with sweat. Not because I was scared of him, but with him in our house, my wife's safety wasn't guaranteed. I'd gotten her message so there was no need for us to keep talking. I dropped the call and put inspector James on the line. As the minutes passed, my anxiety skyrocketed, threatening to hit the roof. My previously distracted mind was transcending into a state of frenzy and I couldn't do anything about it. He picked up after what seemed like eternity, and if he wasn't a noble police officer, I'd have thrown a punch at him. "Hi, Mr Hemingway. How are—" I cut through the pleasantries with clenched teeth. "I'm not fine, inspector James, Leonardo is in my house right now." "What? How is that even possible?
Marrying My High School Bully Fire in the house
Chapter 156Melissa The sun shone brightly, the atmosphere bubbly and charged, but my feelings were the direct opposite as I worked on packing the rest of my clothes. It was past one pm, and it gradually dawned on me that in less than three hours, I'd be leaving California to Mexico. Mexico was a nice country, but I wasn't sure it would be nice to me if Dexter wasn't there. What could I do about it? Nothing! The doorbell jingle, so I dropped the last pair of black shoes I'd selected as I didn't know what event I might be attending, even though I planned to stay indoors throughout my visit there. My chest tightened since I wasn't expecting any visitors, then I shook away my suspicion, reminding myself that if it was Leonardo he wouldn't be coming directly through the door. I took a peek at the peephole and found a man standing beside a bike with a box, causing me to frown. It was strange to see him because I didn't make an order and I clearly wasn't expecting anything from some
Marrying My High School Bully The agreement
Chapter 155Melissa He came in, his expression glimmering with pure exhaustion. My eyes intently followed his sluggish movement as I tried to overcome the barrier between us so that I would welcome him properly. "You didn't tell me that you'll be coming back this late. I've been waiting." His eyes darted to his wristwatch, then he palmed his forehead with a sigh. "I'm so sorry. I lost track of time. Today was really hectic, several things had to be put in place and I wanted to oversee some of the activities by myself." He explained calmly, while I peered at him, my jaws slackened in surprise. We were supposed to be having a beef, but here he was, explaining how his entire day went even though his body screamed for rest. Strings of guilt gnawed at my chest as I fiddled with my fingers. I'd been completely selfish, and that was why I couldn't notice that my husband was slowly losing his mind because of my problems. I wasn't even making things easier for him. "Can you come over to

Chapter 154Melissa It was over a week since Leonardo managed to outsmart the cops and ran away, and I'd admit that I lost my peace of mind ever since. He could be lurking around, patiently waiting for the right time to strike and I wouldn't know. I wanted it all to end. I wanted to live happily with my family, take a long break from work and just reap all the fruits of my hard work, but all of my wishes wouldn't happen with Leonardo running freely while his daughter was behind bars. Dexter came into the room with a brown envelope in his hands. Once he heard that Leonardo had escaped, he lost his peace as he aided the cops in searching for him. He had become a shadow of his handsome self, as he was more interested in keeping Lilly and I safe. "Hi, cupcake, how was your day?" I asked as he sank on the bed and kissed my lips lightly. His hands moved to my abdomen which he caressed fondly. It was still flat as the pregnancy hadn't gotten to three months. It was a good thing becau

Chapter 153Melissa Seeing that everyone was already seated in the boardroom, including Leonardo and the rest of the staff, I stood up to address them. "I'm sure you are all wondering why I called for this impromptu meeting. It's because we have an important announcement to make, but before that, I'd like to appreciate everyone who is working tirelessly to ensure that Hills Jewelry is back to the top again." I said and they followed my speech with an ovation. I spoke to them with an air of confidence, passing glances at Leonardo who tried to hide his frown. If only he knew what I had in store for him today, he wouldn't be present at the meeting at all. But I found a way to lure him here, promising him that I was going to help him return to his former position. "You all showed me love and unwavering support, and in these few days of working together, we have been able to convince Troy Golds to partner with us. The partnership will be more beneficial to us because of their influenc

Chapter 152DexterMy heart thudded faster as I waited patiently in Doctor Luca's office for him to come with the DNA test result. I knew that Liam claimed to be Lilly's father and he had several ways of proving it, but for some unknown reasons, I hoped that a miracle would occur and the result would be in my favor. The door made a creaking sound as Doctor Luca let himself in. I searched his face for a clue, but as usual, his face gave away nothing. He sank onto his seat and said nothing for some seconds, then he inhaled and fixed his gaze on me. "The result is ready." He announced like I didn't know already. "Can I have it?" I asked curtly, getting cranky by the minute. He passed a brown envelope to me which I opened. A white paper fell out and I opened it, unwilling to drag the tension further. I scanned through the information, unable to make out what it meant until I got to the end and saw the statement of the result. My heart plummeted when I read that the probability of my
