The next morning, Elizabeth woke up with a smile. She was holding something hard and yet soft. She smiled, snuggling close to that thing because it felt so comfortable. After a while, she gently opened her eyes. Her blurry vision fell on a handsome face. She couldn't process what she saw. She blinked her eyes to get a clearer view. That was when she realized that the comfortable thing she was sleeping close to was Richard. She widened her eyes in shock. How did they end up in this intimate position? At that moment, Richard also opened his eyes. He also blinked to know if he's not dreaming. Why the fuck is she so close to him. He quickly pushed her away and sat up from the bed. Luckily, Elizabeth was far from the bed edge and didn't fall off.

“What the fuck!” he cursed. “Why the hell are you sleeping so close to me?”

“Why are you so surprised? Isn't that what couples do…… cuddling to sleep. Besides, I'm sure you enjoyed it more than I do.” Elizabeth winked at him and got out of bed. S

    Elizabeth was returning to her room when a hand dragged her to a corner. She was met with the angry face of Evelyn. “Who are you? And what is your motive in marrying my son?” Evelyn asked with a stoic expression. Evelyn couldn't help but think that something was going on. Even if Richard refuses to tell her, she knows that there must be a reason they got married. And Elizabeth has an ulterior motive for this marriage. “I think you know who I am. You called me a gold digger the first day we met, Mrs Presley or should I call you mum?” Elizabeth asked with a smirk. “I am not your fucking mother. Tell me, why did you marry my son?” Evelyn snapped.“You already know my reason. Why are you still asking me again? Well, let me put it clearly for you to understand. I am here to eat the Presley money just as you are doing.” she leaned close to her ears. “I know the truth, mum. You are not from a rich family. You are here as a gold digger just as me.”Evelyn widened her eyes in shock. How dar

    Before Richard could lose it and destroy that lips of hers with a hungry kiss, he pushed her away and took two steps back. “I warned you to know your limit.” His voice didn't come out as stoic as he wanted it. What the fuck is this girl doing to him “Come on Richard, stop holding yourself back. I know you want me. I am your wife, stop holding yourself back.” Elizabeth took a step close to him, but he moved back. He can't believe that he's acting like some sort of teenager trying to escape early sex. For a second, he thought it wouldn't be a bad thing sleeping with her. Besides, she's his wife and it could help him get his head off Annabelle. But then again, she reminds him of Annabelle. And he's not yet sure with whatever he's feeling towards her, he doesn't want to be more confused.Elizabeth sighs as she watches him walk into the walk-in closest. She knew she's getting somewhere. It won't be long before he yields. Old Mr. Presley has already given her a good position in the Presl

    “Welcome, Mrs. Presley.” A beautiful woman welcomed Elizabeth with a bright smile. It seems like the old Mr. Presley has already told them of her arrival. But not all of them know since some are staring confused at her. They were wondering who this beautiful lady with the aura is. Mrs. Presley…… she didn't think the name could fit her so well. She smiled in satisfaction. “This way ma'am.” The woman added as she led her to an ineffable office that will become hers. Well, it is already hers as her name is already boldly written on the nameplate. “This is your office ma'am, and this is your secretary, Miss Julieta.” “Good morning ma'am, I'm your secretary, Julieta.” The beautiful dark skin girl said with a very bright smile. Elizabeth couldn't help but notice how beautiful she is and how her Melanie skin glows. Indeed, black is beautiful. “If you need anything ma'am, I will be at your service.” Julieta added. “Well, since I'm new here, I would like you to fill me in with everything I

    “You must be kidding. Richard is not married and if he should get married, I am the one he would marry and not a stinking bitch like you.” Anita blurted out.“Poor you. Unfortunately, he can't marry a brat like you.” Elizabeth smirked as she stepped close and whispers to her ear. “I am Richard's wife and the new CMO of this company. Deal with it sweetheart.”She gave Anita a wink as she turned and walked into Richard's office. Nancy was too shocked to stop her. In fact, she didn't even know when she walked away. Anita was still trying to process what just happened. The girl is too confident, she said that she's not just married to Richard but the new CMO of this company. How possible is that? No, that can't be true. Mrs. Evelyn will not allow Richard to marry another lady. And if Richard is truly married, why hasn't she heard about it. Why is it not on social media yet? That bitch is definitely one of those girls that would do anything to get on the bed of her man. She quickly made he

    Elizabeth walked back to Richard's office. Nancy couldn't stop her from walking inside, not after seeing the way she pulled Anita out of the office. Richard had just finished up the call with his private investigator and was about to concentrate on his work when the door opened.He looked up and saw Elizabeth. He looked so done as he pitched the tip of his eyebrows. He wanted to get rid of Anita but it seems that Elizabeth is the worst pain in the ass. “My grandfather gave you that position because he believes you can handle it. What would he think if he finds out that you don't even sit the fuck down in your office and work, instead you enjoy disturbing others who are working.” He said, frustrated.Elizabeth rolled her eyes dramatically and sat opposite him. “If I didn't come over, I wouldn't have known that bitches usually come here. I'm sure grandfather will understand my point.”“Well, I actually like how you got rid of Anita, but that doesn't mean that I want you here. Can you l

    “I want you, Richie. I'm your wife, you don't need to hold yourself back,” she said seductively as she bit on her lower lips. She tried getting close to Richard, but he gently pushed her away. He stood up from his seat and created a reasonable distance between them. “Fake wife is the right word. We both know that this marriage is not real. I told you to maintain your distance from me and you agreed, but you always seem to be crossing the line.” Richard said, trying to ignore the throbbing in his pants. With her presence here, it is making it more difficult to control it. Even his words didn't come out as stoic as he wanted them to. “I don't see this marriage as fake, Richie. If it is money I want, I could have taken it instead of blackmailing you into marrying me. I…” “Yeah, I know you don't want money but I think you want something else and you have gotten it. You want a high position in the Presley corporation and grandfather fulfilled your wish.” Richard cut her off. He's trying

    The following day, the news of Richard Presley being married to a sassy lady took up the internet. People were shocked and muddled. When did Richard Presley get married? He never said anything or revealed dating any woman. Just like a flash, he got married without a celebration or was it a secret wedding? People started digging into Elizabeth's background. Unfortunately they couldn't find anything tangible just like Richard. But they were shocked that Richard married a girl with no name who worked in a small publishing company. They are also shocked that she's now the CMO of the Presley family. Many called her a gold digger. Most people are shocked to find out that Anita Henderson had a thing with Richard. They mocked her for not being chosen by Richard, and was embarrassed by his wife. Everyone has their own perspective about the situation. While some called Elizabeth a gold digger, others liked what she did — putting Anita Henderson, the rude brat in her place was so exciting to w

    “Elizabeth, it's a good thing that you are here. I was even about to ask one of the maids to go up to your room and call you,” Evelyn said as she walked into the kitchen and met Elizabeth who was trying to get a bottle of water from the fridge. Elizabeth faked a smile as she closed the fridge after picking a bottle of water. “Wow! Should I be excited that you seek my presence,mum?” “Maybe you should.” Evelyn also faked a smile. “Well, I just want you to perform the important family ritual that is always done by the daughter-in-laws of this family.” “Does that mean you have accepted me as the daughter-in-law?” “Don't be too excited because you don't know when all these will end.” Evelyn smirked. “Unfortunately it just began, mum. Something that just began will definitely take time to end or probably will not end.” Elizabeth replied with a sarcastic smile. Evelyn smirk dropped, she closed the distance between them. “I will advise you, Elizabeth, not to play with fire. It is a dan

    “You have been deceiving me all these years. You made me believe that you are a good person. You joined me in fighting those that hurt me whereas you were part of them!” Elizabeth snapped in tears.“I'm sorry, Elizabeth. I regretted what I did, that was why I saved you that night. I was desperately in need of money and Anita manipulated me with it. Forgive me, please,” Stephen said as a single tear fell down his cheeks. He's someone that hardly cries but he doesn't want Elizabeth to push him out of her life.“You felt guilty?” Elizabeth looked up at him with puffy eyes. “How dare you feel guilty after destroying someone's life. You don't have the right to feel guilty!”She suddenly stood up and turned her back on Stephen. “Get out. I don't want to see you near this house or anywhere around me.” Saying those words brought so much pain to her heart. Stephen is a very important person in her life.

The pain he's passing through now is what he deserves.She remembers what the old Mr. Presley told her last night. She visited him last. Even though she was hurt by the Presley, the old Mr. Presley was an exception. He loved her so much and treated her like she was his own granddaughter. If he had not been in a coma five years ago, all these wouldn't have happened. She wanted him to live in a comfortable room but he refused her offer. She wanted to feel guilty about it, but he told her that it wasn't her fault. He made that decision himself. And he's not angry at her for her own decision either.

She thought that she went too far with her revenge, but hearing him say that, she believed

    From the prison, Richard went to his favourite bar. He just wants to get himself drunk. He wants the pain in his heart to go away. He just doesn't know what to do right now. One way he thinks everything that is happening right now is Evelyn's fault, but the other way he believes that it is his fault. If he had not blamed Annabelle for the death of Angelica and hated her throughout their marriage…… if he had let go of his pride and listen to his heart…… if he had own up to his feeling for Annabelle and tried not to kill them…… will everything had been alright? Yes…. everything would have been alright. Everything is his fault. Because if he had called Annabelle when he was on a business trip, he would have known that it was her due date. If he had listened to Noah and made more investigations and did not believe what he saw on the internet and what Evelyn told him…… he believes that things would have been better. He doesn't know how better it could be, but he believes that it would ha

    Elizabeth fully took over as the CEO of the Presley corporation. The rumor was that Richard gave her the position of the CEO because she deserves it more than him, while some said that she forcefully took it from the Presleys, even their mansion. But no matter what the rumor is, the only fact is that both Presley's corporation and Presley's mansion were signed off by Richard to Elizabeth. Elizabeth didn't throw them out of the mansion. She allowed them to stay in the workers quarters. She asked the old Mr. Presley to stay with her in the main building, but he refused.
