“I have one more request, Mr. Presley,” Elizabeth said. She and Richard had just gotten married in the court, and Richard was headed to his car while she followed him. “The deal has only one request, Miss Elizabeth, and I've fulfilled it already. Don't think you can make me do another.” “It's not a big deal, Mr. Presley. In fact, it is something that every couple does. If you want the world to believe that we are a happily married couple. Most importantly, if you want Mr. Reynolds to believe that you are a gentleman who loves his wife and is capable of taking care of her. You will know that I should live with you in the Presley mansion and also work in the Presley corporation.” Elizabeth bluntly said. Richard smirked. This woman really has something big up her sleeve. She wants to work in the Presley corporation. Now this game is getting interesting, and he's so delighted to play along. He will definitely enjoy playing this game. At least, it will help get Anita off his neck.
Richard knew that his parents would freak out once he arrived at the mansion with Elizabeth. Their family values marriage a lot. It is their culture that every member of the family will be present in any marriage that concerns the family. It also includes the members of the family you are not on good terms with and those you are on good terms with. Also, the couple must be wedded in church. In their family, that's the only marriage they recognize and honor and not this court marriage he just had with Elizabeth.His marriage with Elizabeth is not something he would be committed to. That's why they just had a simple court marriage of signing the marriage contract. After their marriage, he got to know her surname— Carter. He has already told his personal investigator to look into her background. He knew it's insane that he had just married a stranger he knew nothing about, but this stranger brought an interesting game to his table, and he's so eager to play it. He couldn't help but noti
Richard had earlier reached out to his family, requesting their presence in the sitting room because he has an important announcement to make. Everyone was present except his aunt, Natalie. Well, that one is never present. She must be wasting in one bar right now. Elizabeth watched their faces. She saw the old Mr. Presley, the only good one among these evil people. He's now confined in a wheelchair, but she's glad he later woke up from his coma. He was the only person Annabelle had who got her back in this house.“Who is this?” Mrs. Evelyn Presley asked as she stared at Elizabeth with disdain. She could see the slight resemblance she has with Annabelle. The only difference is that she looks more beautiful and intrepid than Annabelle.“This is Elizabeth Carter, my wife.” Richard announced without meeting the gaze of any of his family members. He was silently waiting for them to freak out, especially his mother. She has recognized only one woman as his wife, and that's Anita. Secondly,
Old Mr. Presley is still the patriarch of the Presley family, and his decision is final. Since he accepted Elizabeth into the family, the rest of the family has no choice but to do so. Evelyn Presley may have said yes to what her father in-law said but that doesn't mean she won't find a way to get rid of Elizabeth. She got rid of Annabelle, so getting rid of Elizabeth won't be a hard case. She doesn't know how Elizabeth was able to seduce her son and make him go against the family law and marry her in court, but she will make her regret doing so. “Thank you,” Elizabeth said to the maid that took her to Richard's room. The room is spacious and beautiful, too big for one person. The only thing she can say is that money speaks volumes in this room. She gently dropped her bag on the bed as her eyes studied the beautiful room of gray and white. Her feet moved her to the big walk in closet. Her mouth made an ‘o’ shape when she entered inside. For a second she thought that she was suddenly
“Even if you don't like me, that doesn't mean I don't like you and I see this as a real marriage. Moreover if your family finds out that I forced you into this marriage, they will end it and I will take action. I will release the pictures to the internet and make sure it gets to Mr. Reynolds. I'm sure you wouldn't want Mr. Reynolds nor your family to find out about the pictures. So we should keep this marriage as real as possible. And don't worry, I won't be in your space. We can share a room and still respect each other's privacy.” Elizabeth said as she walked towards the bathroom door. “I will take a bath now, I feel dirty. You can join me if you want.” She sexily winked at him as she entered the bathroom. Richard felt a heat rush down his torso when she sexily winked at him. Richard can lie all he wants but he knows that this lady makes him feel something that he doesn't want to feel. He doesn't understand that feeling and he wishes not to because he won't succumb to it. When she
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
Her first plan is to take Evelyn's hotel. It is one of the biggest hotels in the country with a big net worth. She can't wait to take Evelyn down, but she really needs to be careful, especially now that Evelyn is on her tail. Evelyn doesn't like the way her relationship with Richard is making progress. She has tried many things to ruin it but it all failed. She was also trying to make the old Mr. Presley hate Elizabeth but her plans all failed. The old Mr. Presley cherished Elizabeth so much and can never hate her. Elizabeth cherished him too. He is the only one she excluded from her plan.Elizabeth noticed that Anita Henderson is working with Evelyn to destroy her relationship with Richard. She will have to put that brat in her place. What she did to the brat two days ago was actually satisfying. She went to the mall to pick a dress for the dinner date she will have with Richard today. The store attendance showed her the beautiful and expensive dresses they have. Going through the s
Elizabeth checked the message in her secret phone before putting it back to its hiding place. She had previously sent the receiver a message asking how Jeffrey got to kill someone. Their plan was to only put him in prison through hard drug abuse and then make sure he never comes out, and not for him to kill an innocent person. ‘I don't know how it happened, but the victim is a hotel cleaner. The police found her dead and Jeffrey unconscious in the hotel room. I made sure he took enough of the hard drug. His fingerprint was on the container of the hard drug, and all evidence pointed at him. He can't escape it. The police concluded that he killed the cleaner on the influence of drugs, which could be true.’ the message reads.‘But he was unconscious. How can he kill someone when he is unconscious?’ Elizabeth just can't get the pieces together. He was unconscious when the police arrested him. He didn't know what was happening until he woke up in the hospital. What if Jeffery is not the o
The next two days, Richard and Elizabeth took a flight in their private jet back to america. Before they left, Elizabeth visited Jeffrey. Richard didn't allow her to go, but Elizabeth begged him to let her go. “Jeffery is my friend….. I have a lot of questions to ask him. What happened and why he turned out like this. I won't be here for his trial, so I need to see him for the last time. Please let me go, Richie. I will be back before it is time for our flight.” Richard later allowed her to go visit Jeffrey. Before she leaves Spain, she wants Jeffrey to know the person who brought him down. She can't wait to see the furious look that would be on his face. She dressed up heavily like a sassy queen before going to the prison. When she arrived there, she checked in as Jeffrey's girlfriend. It would be easier to see him with that status.After a few minutes of waiting, Jeffery was brought out. He was so relieved when he saw Elizabeth. At least someone would help get him out of here. See
“Get a grip of yourself, Elizabeth. You wouldn't want the police to think that you are his accomplice.” Richard said as he stopped her from leaving the room.“But he's my friend. I trust him. Maybe someone framed him. Jeffery can not kill even a fly. I've known him almost all my life. I know what he can do and what he can't do.”“Come on, Elizabeth. You haven't met him for months. He could have changed. People do change. Someone you know today may not be someone you will know tomorrow.” he cuts in. “To think that you met him a few hours ago. I'm glad nothing happened to you.” he hugged her, feeling so relieved. He knew it would be very hard for her to come to terms with this since he is someone she has known for a long time and trusted. But the truth can't be changed. He won't let her get close to that murderer. Elizabeth stayed in his arms for a very long time as he comforted her. Well, that was all a pretense, but she needed to make him believe that she really cared about Jeffery.
After Elizabeth has calmed down. They both sat on the couch while she rested her head on his chest as he held her in his arms. She hates the fact that she felt so safe in his arms, and that he was able to calm her down. Her tears were real. Remembering the past was painful. She will make Jeffery feel every bit of the pain she is feeling right now. Richard switched on the television for her to relax her mind before it will be time for them to have dinner with Mr. Reynolds. “Thank you Richie for letting me cry in your arms.” she said as she stared up at him with a weak smile. Richard smiled and kissed her forehead gently. “I think you won the game. Seeing tears in your eyes was hurtful to watch. I want to take all your pains away. If I could fight death I will fight it for making you cry.”Elizabeth chucked. “You are funny Richie. I also wish I could fight death. I would have stopped it from taking my parents away. But I didn't win the game because I was never playing a game with you
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
