Bellas Pov The emerald green dress that Lucas’s assistant left out for me was extremely elegant and had me feeling flustered. It showed a generous amount of cleavage and my upper back was showing. Lucas’s assistant had said that it was an Asymmetrical Neck, Backless Split Thigh Sequin Formal Dress that Lucas had custom made for me. I understood nothing she had said. I doubt that was even the way she said it. All I knew was that the full length dress had a split that started at my thigh and I couldn’t help but look in the mirror at my body and feel flustered.Lucas was nowhere in sight so I couldn’t ask him why I had to wear something so elegant and why we had to go to this cocktail party. I had thought that this would be a fun vacation but it seemed like Lucas would be working a lot and I would have to attend fancy dinners and parties instead of enjoying my time on the beach. He had promised me that I would enjoy myself on this vacation but it was starting to seem like that was
Bella’s Pov “We could’ve just stayed at the hotel.” I murmured as we walked into the party that was not indoors but outdoors. The cool breeze that occasionally swept through had me wanting to go back to the hotel even more. “Relax.” Lucas demanded in irritation as we walked past a few people dressed in suits that were quick to turn towards Lucas and greet him. “Mr. Connery it’s an honor to finally meet you in person.” A man said as he basically grabbed Lucas’s arm and tried to shake it off. “I am happy to make your acquaintance.” Lucas murmured lowly. I looked away from them and looked around at all of the people. We had spent two hours driving to this party that looked boring. The decorations were beautiful but other than that all it seemed like we could do here was talk and drink. There was a huge wooded platform that stretched far out but there was really no room to dance or play game. It had wooden tables set out perfectly and bright lights that shined the whole plat
Bella’s Pov I wasn’t surprised when silence filled the area around us. That’s why I had said what I said so loudly. I wanted to embarrass Lucas the same way he always did me. “But at least he feeds me and makes sure my needs are met. Who really needs happiness when they have a rich and controlling husband who could care less about anything but themselves?” I asked. “Your your food Mrs. Connery.” A waiter stuttered as they set my food down. “Look at that just on time.” I said as I looked over at Lucas mockingly l. “See he always makes sure I’m fed even when I would rather starve than eat.” I sang as I looked back at the food. I forced a huge smile on my face as I grabbed a small piece of sushi. Without paying anyone any mind I put the sushi into my mouth and smiled as I chewed it. I could only hold in the moan of satisfaction as all the flavors hit me at once. A loud bang had me furrowed my brows. “I’m so sick of having to hold my tongue for someone as ungrateful as you.” Mo
Bella’s Pov I had remained silent and could only force a smile on my face as a waiter brought me a new plate of food. This time Lucas had personally went and told them what to get me and it seemed like they got everything that he said. I silently looked down at the food hating that I felt like I was being held at gun point right now. Technically I was being held with the threat of losing my memories so I would say it was about the same. I looked at everyone who was now eating and couldn’t help but look away in frustration. There were multiple people that heard Lucas threaten me and nobody seemed to care. It was like they were all in on it which was insane. “Here try this.” Lucas murmured near my ear. I glanced over at his chop sticks that had some type of weird shaped white thing and reluctantly opened my mouth. “It’s a dumpling.” He whispered as he pushed it into my mouth. I didn’t complain when it overstuffed my mouth. Instead I looked away as I chewed. My cheeks were beyo
Lucas’s Pov “So did they make it home yet?” I asked with a raised brow as Robert set his phone on the table. The driver had left over two hours ago and I could only assume that the call Robert received was confirmation that the driver made it back to the hotel. Robert chuckled as he reached into his suit pocket. “Yes, she’s looking for the wallet right now.” He said as he pulled out the red wallet that he had stuffed into his inside pocket. A small smirk formed on my lips as I grabbed the wine glass I was given and took a small sip. “You know she’s going to be furious.” Danny grumbled lowly. “She’ll be looking for it all night.” I said as I smirked against the the glass. “Yea, she’s destroying the hotel room looking for it right now.” Robert mumbled as he rubbed his face. “Why, why did you take her wallet and not tell her?” A soft voice asked that had me looking over and smirking. I licked my lips as I leaned over and spoke for Robert. “Because we can’t have my wife running o
Bella’s Pov (This chapter is suppose to be posted before. Have to wait on the editor to switch them around)“I look exactly like you.” I whispered softly as I looked at myself in the mirror. I couldn’t help but smile widely as I leaned against the huge sink. Monica had done my hair and made sure that I looked perfect and it honestly paid off. There was no way that anyone could tell that I was Bella. She had made it where even my nose looked like hers. I don’t know how but I was grateful. “Stop staring at yourself. We have to go.” She murmured as she grabbed the door and opened it. “Wait.” I rushed out as I snapped my gaze towards her. She turned towards me with furrowed brows and irritation. “Why?” She asked in annoyance. “I ummm, we didn’t discuss how I would escape and I don’t think we’ll have time after this.” I whispered softly. A small smile formed on her lips as she rolled her eyes. “You didn’t think this through much did you?” She asked mockingly causing my cheeks t
Bella’s Pov I couldn’t stop the huff that left me as I looked around the hotel living room that I had destroyed. I knew that Monica would most likely be upset that I had thrown everything on the floor but I couldn’t help it. I had spent a long time look for her wallet and couldn’t find it no matter how much I looked so I started to just throw everything onto the living room floor so that I didn’t miss it. “What is the meaning of this?” Someone asked causing me to spin around with wide eyes. My chest tightened and fear welled in my chest as I stared at Dr. Hickory and Lucas. Lucas’s gaze caught mine and I couldn’t help but panic as a sly smile formed. “What happened here?” My uncle Theodore asked as he walked in behind them along with Danny. The frustration I felt as I realized I had spent hours looking and still couldn’t find Monica’s wallet had me looking around in frustration. “It seems like Monica had some fun while we were out.” Danny sang as he walked over all of the mess
Bethany’s Pov (2 days later) I took a deep breath as I dialed the hotel number that Adams had gave me when he left. We had hardly spoke to each other for the last two days and I couldn’t wait to talk to him. The ring of the phone had me smiling and leaning more into the window. I knew he was always tired when I called but he had promised me that he would not be busy today and we could talk all day if I wanted. So I had purposely slept the whole day away just so I would be fully energized for when I called him. “Hello.” Adams grumbled in a groggy tone when the phone was finally picked up. I looked out at the dark sky over the sea with furrowed brows. “Did I wake you?” I asked as I I heard movement on the other line telling me that he had answered the phone half asleep. He said he would be up early today but now I was wondering if he said that to please me. “Did you want me to call you back another time?” I asked softly when all that came on the other line was movement from him
Lucas's pov "Is she finally asleep?" Theodore asked as soon as I walked into the pool room. "Yes." I said as I sat down on a chair next to Robert. "It took long enough." Theodore complained in a clipped tone. " She just wanted to watch another movie." I said as I stood up and walked over to the mini fridge that was next to a mini bar. "You could've said no." Theodore muttered. I ignored him and grabbed myself a sprite. "As long as she's without her memories, Lucas will be the perfect husband." Robert said or more like threatened. His deadly tone reminded me that this wasn't a fun vacation. "Get me a coke." Robert said as I sat down. I groaned internally and gave a tight-lipped smile as I stood back up. I was quick to grab a coke and turned towards Theodore. "Did you want something? "Yea, get me a water." He said. "Okay. I mumbled as I grabbed the water. I walked up to Robert and handed him his drink. "Thanks." Robert said, which was surprising. "No problem." I sa
Bella’s Pov My eyes narrowed as I looked at my doctor who had clearly lied about my sister going home. She had told him that she would stop being different for Lucas and me and now she could stay for some reason. “Did you already pick the movie?” He asked when he noticed me staring. “Lucas did.” I murmured as I looked over at Lucas and narrowed my eyes even more because he was suppose to be watching a movie with me but instead he was on his laptop doing work. “Are we not watching a movie?” I asked as my brows furrowed. “After I’m done.” He murmured as he continued to type away on his laptop. “You have been working for hours.” I stated as I glanced at the screen that had all kinds of documents spread around. He clicked on one of the screens and it switched places with another causing me to become confused. I didn’t understand anything he was doing so I could only look back at him in frustration.“Can’t you do that later?” I asked as he stared intently at the screen. “Relax.” H
Lucas’s Pov The irritation I felt as I glanced at Theodore was tangible. We had decided that we would keep it simple and make sure that Monica was pacified along with Bella but for some reason Theodore had seemed to have forgotten. “Don’t you guys have a prenup?” Robert added to the conversion. My brows furrowed as I looked at him with a questioning gaze. If not for Bella and Monica I would’ve asked both of them what they were doing because it seemed like they were trying to sabotage my marriage again. We had clearly agreed to make it seem like Monica didn’t get hardly any inheritance and that’s why she married Theodore but for some reason they were both being reckless. “No we don’t have a prenup.” Theodore stated confidently. I internally chuckled as I forced myself to look at Bella. “Didn’t I say to eat?” I asked as I grabbed one of the deviled egg with the fork and brought it up to her lips. She looked down at the egg and over at me with a meek expression on her face. I
Bella’s Pov “You can sit next to me.” My doctor said nearly instantly. The way my sisters face morphed to one of pure anger had me confused and annoyed. “But I want to sit here.” She said as she looked back at Lucas. “Why do you keep looking at my husband?” I couldn’t help but ask as I narrowed my own eyes. She clearly had her own husband but acted like she didn’t. She didn’t even treat him like he was her husband. Lucas told me it’s because she didn’t remember him but that didn’t matter because I didn’t remember Lucas and I didn’t act like her. Monica looked at me and frowned clearly not liking that I asked her that question. “I can look at him.” She retorted with an attitude that had me pursing my lips together.“I said eat.” Lucas murmured as he leaned in closer to me. I looked at him through my lashes and blushed a little as he stared at me with a stern gaze. “But she keeps looking at you.” I couldn’t help but say. “Is her looking at me hurting you?” He asked lowly. “Yes.”
Bella’s Pov I watched as Lucas put different kinds of food on my plate. “What’s that?” I asked as he grabbed what looked like a boiled age but cut in half. I had had boiled eyes with my soup yesterday and I couldn’t lie and say that it wasn’t delicious. “A deviled egg.” Lucas stated as he put it next to the cut up pieces of steak and bread. “A deviled egg.” I murmured to myself. “Yes.” He murmured as he grabbed some rice. “Is it good?” I couldn’t help but ask as I leaned closer into him. “Yes.” He stated confidently. “What are you guys doing?” A female asked from behind me before I could ask more questions. I looked over my shoulder and narrowed my eyes as Monica and my uncle walked up to us. My uncle Theodore was walking causally next to my sister which had me furrowing my brows. “Why are you here?” I asked in annoyance. My uncle gave a smile while my sister only rolled her eyes. “I decided to take your sister down for something to eat.” My uncle Theodore stated. I gave
Bella’s Pov (3 days later) I tightened my hold on Lucas’s hand and stared at all the people that were walking around in pretty dresses. Lucas had told me that there would be no more than a couple of people but from what I could see there was at least 100 people walking around. I used my free hand to tug on the black dress that Lucas had me wear. He told me that black was my favorite color dress but after looking at all of the colorful dresses that scattered the room I could almost guarantee he was lying. “Next time I want to wear a yellow and purple dress.” I stated as I realized that my two favorite colors were them. “Yellow and purple?” He asked sounding surprised. “Yes. I like them colors and nobody seems to be wearing one of them colors.” I said as I looked around one more time. “That’s because then colors don’t go well together.” He stated in a matter of fact tone. Had I had my memories I would’ve argued with him but since I wasn’t sure if he was lying I could only pur
Bella’s Pov I stared at Lucas in confusion not understanding how even though he could make me blush I didn’t remember him at all. I couldn’t lie and say that he wasn’t handsome. He had a charm to him that I thought was perfect and I could only assume that’s why we married. When he looked up at me from his food a small smirk formed on his lips. He gently wiped his mouth off with his napkin and smirked as he licked his lips. “So do you like your food?” He asked as he looked down at my chicken lettuce wrap and back up at me with a raised brow and a smile. My cheeks brightened as I looked back down at my plate that I had forgotten about. I hadn’t even realized that I was staring at him for so long. He was the definition of perfect and I could only grab my food quickly and take a big bite. Eating was better than talking. Especially since he caused butterflies to attack me every time he talked or looked at me. How had I ended up with someone so perfect? “So I take it that it’s good
Lucas’s Pov I tried not to react as Bella looked at me from across the table. She was suppose to still be sleep but somehow she was awake and now staring at me with a questioning gaze. “Why, why don’t I remember anything again?” She asked as she grabbed her iced tea and slowly drank it. I gave a forced smile as I looked at Robert for the answer because I wanted to know the same thing. She was suppose to know who I was but for some reason she woke up and remembered nothing. Robert who had been silent the whole time bared his teeth as he looked down at the papers that one of his workers brought to him when she had woke up. “It seems like the accident you got into has given you amnesia.” He forced out through the anger that seemed to be brewing slowly. “Amnesia?” She asked in confusion as she set her glass down delicately. “Yes, it seems like you lost all your memories because of the accident.” He ground out. I didn’t have to ask him if he was upset because it was clear as day t
Penelope’s Pov “Enough.” He yelled loudly. The shock that my mother had was quickly replaced by anger. “Don’t tell at our daughter.” She screamed back at him. “Shut up, I am done with Penelope’s obsession over Lucas. Lucas is married and what he does with Bella is his business and if she can’t understand that than I will disown her.” He said with so much aggression that I knew he wasn’t joking. His words had me paling as they slowly settled it. “You’ll disown me because of Lucas?” I couldn’t help but ask as I took a deep breath and grabbed at my chest. My father was suppose to love me but instead he planned on disowning me for Lucas. “No, I’ll disown you because of your obsession that is ruining this family not because of Lucas.” He exclaimed with narrowed eyes. “I am not obsessed.” I stated defensively. Even though I knew that the love I had for Lucas had passed being normal I refused to admit that I was wrong. “Really than why do you care about what he does with his wife?”
