“I told you not to touch my things!” Richard growled as he picked the picture. He noticed the sad and painful look in Elizabeth's eyes, but it vanished immediately. He thought maybe he imagined it.“That wasn't intentional.” she rolled her eyes, thinking that he's overreacting. “I was looking for my red skimpy nightwear. It is my favorite.”“And how does that have to do with my wardrobe.” Richard hissed.“We share the same closet, I thought maybe it's there.” she replied lazily. “ Why the fuck are you even angry? That was just a picture, and it's not like I ruined it. It's still intact.”Richard's eyes flashed in anger as he grabbed her arm recklessly, making her wince slightly. “It is not just a picture! Don't ever come near my things again!” He warned and yanked her off. She nearly fell down but luckily maintained her stamina.“That's your ex-wife, right?” She asked calmly as she rubbed her arm to reduce the pain. There was a red mark left there by his hard grip.His intense gaze g
Elizabeth gathered herself together and went down for dinner. Before she left the room, she checked her secret phone and as expected she saw a message.‘Everything is moving smoothly.’ The message reads.There's another one. She opened it. ‘When are we going to meet?’She sighed and looked toward the bathroom door. Richard entered there a few seconds ago before she decided to check her phone. She returned her attention to her phone as she typed.‘Soon. Just be patient, and continue with our plan.’After typing and sending the message, she hid the phone and left the room. She walked down the huge spiral stairs and was walking towards the dining room when Natalie blocked her path. Natalie flashed her a cocky smile as she drank from her bottle of wine. Elizabeth tried not to cringe her nose. Natalie always reeks of alcohol even when she's not drinking one. She wonders what's her problem. What pain is she going through, trying to use the alcohol as her reliever? Well, that's none of he
After dinner, Richard went to his home office. He has a lot of work to do, and he doesn't think if he will even have some sleep tonight. He had worked for about two hours when Elizabeth walked in with a cup of coffee.Richard frowned upon seeing her. He hates what this woman makes him feel. “What are you doing here?” His voice was cold.Elizabeth simply smiled as she dropped the cup of coffee on the table. “I brought you coffee. It will help.”“I don't need it.” Richard replied sarcastically.“You need it. Stop being stubborn. I'm just trying to be a sweet wife.”“Well, you don't have to. Leave with your coffee.”Elizabeth frowned. He is such a stubborn man. She sighed and sat opposite him.“I asked you to leave!”“Why are you so adamant about me leaving? My presence isn't stopping you from working.” She retorted. Suddenly, she smirked and leaned forward, exposing the tip of her cleavage. Richard cursed inwardly and tried not to look. “Is my presence affecting you, Richie? In a way
“Richie, do you think we will be able to create another design before the launching date? I mean, can we meet up with the date?” Elizabeth asked as she sat opposite Richard in his office. Richard has been busy since yesterday. Elizabeth doesn't know if he slept in his home office yesterday night because he was busy or because he was avoiding sleeping in their room with her. “We will, you don't need to worry. Everything will be handled very well.” Richard replied, not sparing her a glance. His eyes were fixed on the laptop in front of him. It's not like he's working, he's just trying to avoid her. “Richie…” “I'm busy.” He cut her off. “Go back to your office, we can talk some other time.” He knows that he can't avoid her, but for now he just wants her to leave. He needs to gather his thoughts. A lot is in his mind, and he feels like he would go crazy. “I've been working since morning. I need a break.” She said with cute pouty lips. “I know that you are also tired of working. Let
After work, Elizabeth didn't make use of her car. She was fast to enter Richard's car before the driver drove away.“What the fuck…. Why are you here?” The startled Richard asked. It was like a flash. He was pressing his phone and the next thing…. She was already in the car that was about to move. Elizabeth flashed him an innocent smile and adjusted to a good position. “My car was having a problem. So I decided to ride with you.” She lied. Of course, her car was full of life. It's just an excuse to ride with Richard.“Then take a taxi.” Richard said coldly and turned to the driver. “Stop the car!”The driver found a good spot on the roadside as he carefully parked the car. “Are you getting off here, Richie?”“You are getting off, not me!”“Woah! Richie, you can even read my mind now. How did you know that I wanted to stop by the mall to get something?”Richard rolled his eyes. Is she dumb or what? “Yeah, mind reading is one of my jobs. Step down already!” He flinched a bit when Eli
Richard removed the coat wrapped around Elizabeth's body by the young man and gave it back to him.“I don't think my wife needs this anymore,” he said and grabbed Elizabeth's hand walking her to the car, but Elizabeth forcefully freed her hand from his grip. “Don't you think that you need to apologize first. You left me here in the cold, and now you come back and you are rude towards the person that was trying to help me.” “I……” he paused and ran his palm through his face. “Does that matter now? Whether I apologize or not, it won't change a thing. Come on, let's go, and stop being stubborn.”Elizabeth glared at him. What was she expecting? He will never change. Always a spoiled brat full of pride. She turned to the young man. “Thanks for your help. I really appreciate it.”“You are welcome.” The young man replied with a bright smile. Richard glared at him as he grabbed Elizabeth's hand, dragging her to the car. He's angry, but he can't even explain why he's angry. He opened the c
When Noah saw the news of Richard being married to Elizabeth Carter, he was so disappointed in his best friend. How can he give up on Annabelle? Though they have been searching for her for the past five years and still haven't found her, they still can't give up. He called Richard and he said that he will explain everything to him once he's back. Now that he's back, he can't wait to know why Richard suddenly got married to a woman that nothing much is known about. “Start talking buddy. Who is this Elizabeth Carter and why did you marry her?”Richard doesn't feel like saying anything to Noah right now but he has already promised to tell him everything once he's back. He took a deep breath and explained everything to him. Noah is one person that Richard tells everything to. He literally knows most of Richard's secrets. “So you are saying that you married her because you want to know what her true intentions of blackmailing you is. And right now, it seems that you are slowly falling i
“What? That can't be possible.” Noah cuts in.“Why won't it be possible? She looks like Annabelle and I can't find anything on her as Elizabeth. She reminds me so much of Annabelle. Whenever I'm with her, I feel like Annabelle is there. Even when I kissed her….” He muttered the last sentence. “What if she's Annabelle and her goal is to destroy my family. What if she's here to take away everything my family has. It could be possible that she did surgery to change her face.”“Can you listen to yourself, Richard. Do you think Annabelle is capable of doing that?”“She is. Have you forgotten what she did five years ago.”“Come on buddy….. do you really believe that Annabelle could do such a thing?” Noah said with a hint of disappointment in his eyes. He has tried severally to make his friend understand that the Annabelle they both knew can't do what they accused her of. Yes, the evidence was there but it was still hard to believe. What if that evidence was made up? Though he has tried to f
Few minutes later, their dinner was served. The waitress looked at Elizabeth and nodded. She smiled knowing that her plan is moving perfectly. Tonight will be Jeffery's end. The waitress served their food and wine to them. As she was pouring Jeffrey's wine she secretly slipped a sleeping and hallucinating drug into it. Jeffery’s attention was on Elizabeth. She purposely dragged his attention towards her. After the waitress was done, she gave Elizabeth a look before leaving. “Let's have our meal.” she said and flashed a smile at jeffery who didn't know the reason behind that smile.Before they were done having their meal. The drug in Jeffrey's wine was already taking effect in his body. Elizabeth had a victorious smile on her face as she led him to his room. She used his key card to open the door. She roughly threw him on the bed when they successfully entered the room. “I can't wait to eat you tonight, Liza.” he mumbled in his sleep.“That will be if you make it out of the prison.”
Richard ordered breakfast for them. They both sat in the mini dining room in the suite as Richard dished out the food for them. There are a lot of delicacies on the table including coffee and tea. It doesn't look like breakfast at all. It's more like they are having a feast.“This is too much, Richie. Are we going to finish this?” Elizabeth asked as she picked the cup of tea Richard had served her. “We did a lot of heavy work last night. I guess we need to replenish our strength.” Richard said with a wink.Elizabeth chuckled shyly. “Are you flirting with me now, Richie?” “Something like that.” Richard replied with a smile. “Here, have some coffee. I heard it is good to have a cup of coffee every morning.”“Oh, coffee is actually one of my favorites,” Elizabeth said as she picked the cup of coffee. She inhaled the scent and made a face which shows that she likes it before taking a gulp.”It tastes so good. I think coffee in Spain is the best.”Richard watched her closely to see if the
Elizabeth slowly opened her eyes. She looked at Richard who was sleeping peacefully beside her as he held her in his arms, her head resting on his chest. She couldn't believe that she had such a hot night with him last night. Without knowing it, she started checking him out. Looking closely at him, she could see how handsome he is. He has always been handsome, but it seems that he becomes more handsome as he goes down in age. He has a very strong jawline, well defined jawline and kissable lips. She throbbed subconsciously as she remembers how he devoured her lips and clit last night. She smiled. He has always been good at this. Realizing what she's doing, she quickly averted her gaze away from him and slowly released herself from his arms.She climbed down the bed and walked to the bathroom. She stood in front of the mirror staring at her disheveled reflection. ‘What has come over me. Why was my heart beating while staring up closely at him, and why does it seem that I enjoyed everyth
Richard kissed her so fiercely as if he wanted to devour her lips. He has been wanting for days to taste this lip again. That day they had a little makeout wasn't enough to quench his yearning and hunger for her. He wants more. He hasn't been able to get that moment out of his mind. And anytime he thinks of it, it makes him hard and yearns for her. Seeing her in this skimpy nightwear and the jealousy he felt and the possessiveness he has toward her wasn't a helping matter. It made him want her the most and he wasn't able to hold himself back. He doesn't care if she is winning in this game, he just wants her. He can't control this urge any longer.He was kissing her lips as if his life depends on it. The more he kissed her, the more he couldn't get enough. He groaned when she straddled him and was reciprocating the kiss with the same speed as him.Elizebeth was trying her best to flow with his pace. She wrapped her hand around his neck as she straddled him and deepened the kiss. She mo
“I need to go back now before Richard becomes suspicious.” she stood up, about to leave but jeffrey stopped her. He drew her closer to himself. He looked down at her body lustfully. His eyes settled on her boobs which are perking out of the night wear. He was looking at her like a lion ready to devour his prey. The lust and desire in his eyes were too clear, he couldn't hide it.he licked his lips as he took in her gorgeous body.Elizabeth felt so disgusted with the way his eyes were roaming round her body with lust visible in them. His eyes have literally undressed her. She felt so naked in front of him even though she's wearing clothes. This is the moment she regretted not changing into casual wear before leaving the suite. But it's not her fault. She was in a hurry and didn't think of it. And she also needed to take Jeffery away from Richard and speak with him so she had no time to change her clothes. Why does Jeffery’s lustful eyes disgust her but Richards doesn’t. No, it does. Ju
Jeffery’s face was displaced by shock immediately. It was as if that was when he heard Richard call Elizabeth his wife. “Your wife? She can't be your wife. Elizebeth can't marry another man who is not me.”Richard scoffed as he sarcastically said, “Unfortunately she did. And you should get the fuck away from her. I dont fucking want you near her.”Jeffrey ignored him and turned to elizabeth. “Tell me he's lying, you can't leave me for another man. You just suddenly disappeared. I'm sorry for what I did to you, but that wasn't a reason for you to leave me and marry another man. We have been through a lot together. We are meant to be together forever.”“Well, she ended up with me. She's now married to me. So deal with it,"Richard cuts in. “Let's go,” he said to Elizabeth, but she didn't move.“You can go without me, Richie. Let me have a word with him.” Elizabeth said calmly. Rihard scoffed. “Do you want to go back to your ex?” Judging from Jeffrey's words, Richard assumed that he was
Richard finished bathing and walked out of the bathroom. He headed towards the walk-in closet and put on his pajamas. After he was done. He noticed how quiet the suite is. As if Elizabeth was not around. She's not someone to keep quiet for a longer minute. He decided to check on her in the living room. Entering there he found no sight of her. He wondered where she could be. They just arrived here and she couldn't possibly know anyone here.A lot of thought went through his mind and he didn't like two out of them…. The fact that something bad has happened to her and it got him so worried that his heart started beating fastly or she could be with a man…. That got him jealous. He didn't like any of the feelings and decided not to think about where she could be. He shouldn't care because she means nothing to him. But he fucking knew that was a lie, because he was so restless and couldnt sleep and he didnt even know when he left the suite to go look for her. He put on a comfortable short a
“I know your little dirty secret Annabell. If you don't want your secret to come out, you better come to the rooftop alone.” the message read. Attached to the message were two photos, the photo of Elizabeth with Mr. Hills. It was the second photo that got her trembling. Who could have sent this? She couldn't trace the number since it was a private number.She looked at the bedroom door and moved closer to it. She didn't find Richard there. It seems like he's in the bathroom. She needs to go meet the anonymous person as fast as possible before Richard will notice her absence. She rushed out of the room not minding the fact that she was in her nightie. She was in a hurry to even think about it. She took the elevator to the rooftop. When she arrived there, she didn't see anyone.“Hello,” she called out but got no reply. She looked around the place but no one was there. Is the person fucking playing games with her? She waited for a few minutes but no one appeared. She got irritated. The f
They arrived at the seven-star hotel. One of the oldest hotels in Spain,but still retained its beauty. Elizabeth loved the hotel. The beautiful environment felt so soothing. Everything about the hotel is just to her taste. She was loving the vibe already. Richard was still not talking to her. She doesn't want the silence between them and needs to break it. She must make sure that Richard admits his love for her before they leave this place. And also learn how to trust her no matter the situation. “We won't share the same room. I have already booked a room for you. You can ask the driver to move your things there.” Richard said as they were walking towards the hotel room after being welcomed by the management. “We are a couple, Richie, we will share a room. That's what couples do.” Elizbeth said as she walked into Richard's room with him. “We are not a couple, and we know that. We don't have anyone to watch us here, so we should drop the act.” Richard retorted. “It was never an act
