“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
“What the fuck is this?! I said I like bad alcohol and not bad food.” Natasha cursed as she gestured to the maid to bring her a bottle of alcohol. That's the only thing that can help in this situation. “Why the heck did you serve us poison in the name of food.” Raymond snapped, shooting an angry glare at Elizabeth who looked unperturbed. “Fuck!” Andrew went for a juice. Well, he has never seen a pretty girl who knows how to cook. Elizabeth won't be an exception. “Who the fuck even asked you to cook!” Richard looks so angry. One thing he hates is someone ruining his taste bud with bad food. The cooks in the Presley mansion know too well to be very careful while cooking the food Richard eats. One mistake will lead to losing your job. “Mum asked me to cook.” Elizabeth replied nonchalantly. She wasn't even bothered that everyone spat out the food, claiming that it is bad. “It was a tradition. If you didn't know how to cook, you should have told me.” Evelyn cuts in. “If I had told
It's been one week since Elizabeth turned the table against Evelyn. Everyone was disappointed in Evelyn including Raymond. Evelyn couldn't even say anything, she was so ashamed of herself. Her act was a very childish act. Even Richard was ashamed of his mother's act. He let down his pride and apologized to Elizabeth. The old Mr. Presley thought only his son could be childish, he never thought that his daughter-in-law could be worse. The old Mr. Presley couldn't do anything but just apologize to Elizabeth. He made Evelyn apologize to Elizabeth. Evelyn was so angry, especially when she saw the mocking smile on Elizabeth's face when the old Mr. Presley asked her to apologize. Evelyn didn't want to anger her father-in- law any more, so she swallowed her pride and apologized to Elizabeth. Of course, that apology wasn't from her heart. Her hatred for Elizabeth increased. If not because she has a stupid husband who is so useless, she wouldn't be in that situation. The old Mr. Presley wou
After the meeting, Elizabeth followed Richard to his office even though he warned her not to. But his stubborn wife will always do as she wanted.“Come on Richie, don't push me away. You need me in a time like this,” she said as she walked over to his seat. She sat on the desk, facing him. “I know how you must feel. You have been away for three days on a business trip and you came back to this. Don't worry, we will figure this out together.”How are they going to figure this out? The launching date is around the corner. How will they create another design in such a short period of time? His head is in turmoil. All he feels right now is anger. Elizabeth made herself comfortable between his legs. Richard looked up to her, he wanted to push her away but couldn't. Why does he feel that he needs her comfort? They have been married for more than two weeks now but that's not enough time to make him start feeling this way towards her. Heck! He started feeling this way the first day they met
Richard was kissing her like there's no tomorrow. One would notice how long he has yearned to do this. It was like he was trying to make up for all those times that he was trying to kiss her but restrain himself. He cupped the back of her head as he drew her closer, his tongue sucking every inch of her mouth. Why is he suddenly fueled with so much desire that he couldn't control? Could it be for the fact that he missed her for these three days he was on a business trip or the fact that he's trying to pour his anger out because of the company's stolen design. Either way, he just can't control himself right now or get enough of this kiss. The more he kisses her, the more he yearns for the kiss. He pulled her on his lap, pressing their body together. He pressed her so hard on himself as if he wanted her to disappear into him. He groaned as her ass touched his hard bulge. It made him kiss her harder as his hands ran through her back trying to get past the fabric. He wants to run his han
Richard was confused at what had just happened. He was dumbfounded as he watched Elizabeth run out of his office. What suddenly happened? Isn't this what she wants? Besides, she was enjoying it, and all of a sudden….He looked down at the huge bulge hiding behind his pants as he frowned. How could she run away after causing this big mess? He felt like going to her office to get answers, but he wouldn't want her to get ideas. If she thinks that he's going to beg her for sex, then she's mistaken. He doesn't want her to think that he was greatly aroused by that little make out.He groaned as he throbbed thinking of how hot everything was going…. The taste of her lips…. The softness of her breast and the feel of her skin. Everything lingered in his mind.Fuck!This won't do….. he stood up and walked towards the bathroom in his office. He frowned in anger. He hates doing this. He will surely make her pay for making a mess of him and then run away.…..Richard wanted the launching to procee
“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. He's her best friend, her family, he means a lot to her. Not having him in her life, it wil
It was anita. She wrote her name at the end of the message. Why did she send this to her? Isn't she supposed to be in the mental hospital because she's mentally ill. And what the fuck does she mean by happy in a picture with the man that killed you. Is she trying to say that Stephen was the one that killed her five years ago? She's mentally ill indeed. Stephen didn't kill her. He literally saved her. If not for him, she wouldn't be here today. He saved her and gave her a new life. She took her bag and rushed out of her office. An office she has dreamt to be hers and it is finally hers.She rushed outside the building straight to the parking lot. She met her driver and took the keys from him. She drove straight to the mental home where Anita is confined. How dare she try to play this game with her? She's going to teach her a lesson. When she arrived at the mental home. She went through several questions and her patience nearly ran thin. Finally she was allowed to meet Anita. She ente
It's been two days since the night Elizabeth met Richard drunk in the bar. She has been trying to get herself busy with work and not think about him, but it wasn't working at all. She wants to know how he is doing. This feeling is making her so angry. What has Richard done to her? Why does it seem that she suddenly forgot all the pain he'd cause her. Was the few months he showed her love enough to erase the pain he caused her for three years. Besides, he loved Elizabeth and not Annabelle. If he had known that she was Annabelle, he wouldn't have shown her all that love.Despite all she did not go to the workers quarters, she still found herself there with an excuse that she's there to visit the old Mr. Presley. The first person she bumped into was Richard. It was as if the heavens wanted them to meet.Due to the force they collided with each other. Elizabeth was about to fall down but Richard was fast to catch her. He held her tiny waist as they stared into each other's eyes. They mi
It is Ashley Westford, Raymond's younger sister who is married to Mike Westford, one of the richest men in the UK. Ashley was so furious when she heard of what happened to her family. Raymond told her everything, how Elizabeth took everything from them. What Raymond wants is to definitely get on his feet. Being poor is not for him. The only person he could turn to is his sister. Though not in the country, he believes she will help him.“And who are you?” Elizabeth asked. “I am Ashley Westford Presley,” Ashley replied. So she is Raymond's younger sister. She barely visits the Presley mansion, that is why Elizabeth doesn't know her. It is usually her daughter, Angelina that visits always.“What are you doing in my house, Ashley Westford Presley? I do not remember inviting you here,"Elizabeth said sarcastically.Ashley stomped her feet in anger as she matched towards her but Stephen stood in her way. She glared at him and then at Elizabeth. “This is the Presleys mansion. It belongs to
She said she was done with him. For five years she hated him. How the fuck did that all changed in just a few months. Why is she feeling pity toward him? 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 deserves to be angry and she deserves to make those that hurt her feel the same pain as her. She couldn't be more relieved hearing that from him. 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
He is here to meet Evelyn. He just wanted to know how she was able to plan everything out and made it seem that Annabelle betrayed him. He also wants to know if she is actually aware that Anita was the one that planned his accident five years ago to stop him from getting to the hospital. He just couldn't believe it, and deep down won in his heart, he wants it not to be true. He just doesn't know what he would do if it turns out that the mother whom he thought loves her so much wouldn't mind putting him in danger for her selfish gain. Evelyn was so happy when she was told that Richard is here to see her. She thought he would not visit her again. It looks like her son still loves her.“Richard….” She has a big smile on her face. She wanted to hug him but the bar between them was a barrier. She looked so happy to see him that she didn't notice the coldness on his face.“How did you do it? The news about Annabelle with a man. The news about me with a woman. The divorce paper. All those
Richard's marriage was arranged by his grandfather. The old Mr. Presley made him marry Annabelle. Annabelle's late father saved the old Mr. Presley's life in the past, and to pay him back for saving his life, the old Mr. Presley promised that his grandson will marry his daughter. After the death of Annabelle's parents who both died the same day in a car accident, the old Mr. Presley took her in. He fulfilled his promise and got Annabelle married to his grandson. Richard didn't love Annabelle, he only married her because of his grandfather. He has a woman whom he loves. Her name was Angelica. His mother never liked Angelica because she is from a poor background and a struggling model. From day one, Evelyn has always wanted him to marry Anita, but he doesn't love her.When he was forced to marry Annabelle, he promised Angelica to wait for him and that he would find a way to divorce Annabelle, but unfortunately Angelica committed succide. Richard thought it was because of his marriage
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. He said that even if she believes that he was not part of the people that caused her pain. He also deserved to be punished because his family caused her so much pain. He's at fault for not teaching them well. She was surprised that the old Mr. Presley, the chairman of the board, didn't fight much to keep the company. She was taking what belongs to his family and he did nothing Raymond refused to stay at the workers qu
