My Billionaire Ex-Husband Wants Me Back Unfinished business
Catherine’s POV “Once again, thanks for coming, Cathy,” Franco uttered, as we stepped out of the cemetery.“You're welcome, Franco,” I said. “Once again, please accept my heartfelt condolences.”Few minutes ago, Mr Thomas was committed to mother earth amidst wailing and silent sobs from his family and friends.Throughout the whole funeral ceremony, I couldn't bring myself to shed a single tear because I had cried so much yesterday that I doubted the fact that I could produce a single drop of tear.“You okay, baby?” Alessandro gripped my waist gently as he whispered. “Yeah,” I nodded, darting him a small smile.Despite my aggravated paranoia, I had left the twins back in America with their Nana as I felt they were too young to witness a funeral. Alessandro waited by the car while I spoke to Franco and his family. Franco confided in me that he intended on moving back to Canada and establishing a law firm there.Afterward, Alessandro and I headed back to the hotel where we had checked

Alessandro’s POV “Look at them,” Grandma beamed as she watched the twins, her eyes glimmering with adoration. “Absolute little darlings.”“Yeah, they sure are absolute little darlings but they could also be endearing demons sometimes,” I said, to which she nodded as we both laughed.Currently, the twins, Catherine, Grandma, and I were on the veranda at Grandma's place.Today was Catherine's day off which coincided with a national holiday. Thus, I had also taken the day off to spend time with my dear family.Catherine on the other hand seemed to be absent minded as she incessantly stared at her phone like she was expecting something important.No, it was more than that. She looked a bit terrified and her hands had turned white due to her grabbing her phone as though her life depended on it.She wasn't by chance still in touch with Laura, right?Come to think of it, after we arrived from Canada last night, she had been glued to her phone, and had only left it to use the bathroom.An ex

Laura’s POV Folding my arms across my chest, I scoffed as I watched Catherine look around restlessly, through the glass walls of Oriental restaurant.Good. This was exactly the type of emotional torture that she needed to be subjected to.Something that'd nag at her mind and make her feel as though she was on the verge of running mad. I intended on doing that anyway, making her go crazy before today ended.Peering down at my phone, I dialed Lucas's number and he answered on the first ring.“It's finally time, Lucas,” I smirked. “Everything ends in a couple of minutes today.”“Very well then, we will be there soon,” He said, and I nodded even though he couldn't see me before hanging up and trekking into the restaurant.The moment I walked in, Catherine's eyes met mine and I watched with immense satisfaction, as they widened in horror.Darting her a grin, I waved as I walked up to her table and took my seat adjacent to hers. “Hi, sister. Loosen up a bit, will you? Or do you intend to d

Catherine’s POV “Do you need a jacket, ma'am?” A voice came from behind me as I stared into the voidness that was in front of me.Turning around, I was met with the sight of a young policewoman gazing at me sympathetically.“No, thank you,” I muttered, looking down at my trembling hands. “Alright, ma'am,” She sounded unconvinced. “But do let me know if you need anything.”“Okay,”And with that, she sauntered out of the waiting room. Hugging myself, I averted my stare to the white walls of the police station as the memories of everything that happened in the last hour played in my head.I had managed to escape death for the second time in three months. And both time it had been because of my utter stupidity.Now that I thought of it, leaving the house without telling Alessandro the truth had truly been an asinine decision. Hell, what if something bad had happened to me.What if Laura had fired the bullet before the policemen arrived?What if the policemen had arrived only to find me

Chris’s POV“Chris Howard,” A pot-bellied police officer bellowed as he opened the door to the confinement.For the last two days, I had been confined behind a caged enclosure due to my involvement with Laura.Now that I thought of it, I wondered if she had cast a spell on me that I had helped her without thinking of the consequences that came with assisting a fugitive.“Is Chris Howard deaf?” The policeman hollered, causing the other men in the enclosure to glare at me.“I'm here,” I muttered, raising my hand. “Am I free to go home now?”As if I had cracked the funniest joke on the world, the man burst into a a peal of laughter that had him holding his sides.When he finally recovered from his laughing fit, he shook his head and tossed me a look full of disdain. “You can come and take the key from me and set yourself free, you idiot,” He scorned. “So you want to go home, huh? You didn't think about the risks of associating with that Laura Vasquez before you allowed her to live with

Laura’s POV “Give me a minute,” I muttered to the prison warden, as I grabbed my pair of crutches from the chair beside me.With the aid of the crutches, I hoisted myself up from the chair and headed into the courtroom, with two wardens trailing behind me.Today was the day of my sentencing and I knew without a doubt that the results would be highly unfavorable for me.I was merely going because I had exhausted my medical excuses for the week, thus I couldn't lie about the phantom pain that I often felt on the stump of my leg.That's right, my right leg, where I was shot was amputated two weeks ago. According to the surgeon, the bullets had destroyed my veins and it'd be advisable to cut my right leg, or else it could affect my other good leg.“Thank you,” I whispered, as a warden helped me onto the chair in the dock.I could feel everyone's eyes on me but I had no option but to put up with the strange stares. Let's face it, I ruined my own life by ever involving myself in the world

Catherine’s POV “She's currently clearing her luggage,” I said, as I perused Rita's recent text message.“Okay, baby,” Alessandro responded, securing an arm around my shoulder.We were currently at the airport to pick up Rita in preparation for our trip to Bora Bora tomorrow.Alessandro and I had finally concluded on having our wedding at Bora Bora. Well, I concluded on my own as he had previously told me that he'd be fine with wherever I chose, even if it was a ditch.The fact that I would see my best friend in some minutes had me beyond elated.Yes, I had finally decided to let go of the past and embrace my present, which consisted of Alessandro, our lovely children, Grandma, and Rita.Mandy was in the past which there was no use holding onto. I now had a best friend who loved, cherished, and never judged my sometimes asinine decisions, and I was beyond grateful for her.I couldn't believe three months had passed since I last saw her in flesh.Sure, the phone calls and facetimes re

Catherine’s POV “You are drop-dead gorgeous, Cathie. Alessandro is so lucky to have you as his fiancée.” Rita cooed, as she stared at me, eyes twinkling in awe.“Really?” I asked, a mix of curiosity and impatience simmering within me, as my eyes were closed, in order to allow a smooth eye make-up application.To my utter relief, Zia, the make-up artist and hairstylist, uttered. “You can open your eyes now, ma'am.”Exhaling heavily, I fluttered my eyes open and beheld my reflection in the dresser mirror.My best friend was right; I looked absolutely stunning. The makeup had accentuated my features in a perfect manner, that I never thought was possible.Zia was really good at her craft, and I was more than impressed by her work. And for that, I mentally noted to give her a huge bonus.I had made it clear to her from the get go that I didn't want something exuberant and ostentatious, and she had duly followed my instructions.She had also done a great job with my hair by tossing it into

My Billionaire Ex-Husband Wants Me Back Honeymoon and a gift
Allison's POV “Where are you taking me?” I asked, cuffing my hands around Leo's wrist, as he led me out of the house, with his hands placed on my eyes, obstructing my vision.“It's a surprise, baby.” He said, and I could almost see him grinning mischievously.Three days had passed since our wedding, and in another three days, we were going to leave the country for our honeymoon in Greece.“Here we are,” Leo said, taking his hands off my eyes. “Have a look.”A gasp forced itself out of my throat when I saw a new black Mercedes Benz parked in the driveway, with a white bow taped to the trunk and the headlights.“How do you like it, my love? Is it to your taste?” Leo asked, as I gazed at the car in surprise.“It's perfect,” I whispered, shaking my head in happy disbelief. “I love it.”“I'm glad to hear that, honey,” Leo said, hooking an arm around my waist. “You love the color, right?

After many years of challenges, trials, and tribulations, Allison was finally going to be my wife just like I had always wanted.I had to pinch myself thrice when I woke up that morning, in order to be sure that I wasn't dreaming and today was really happening.“From who?” I asked, as he handed me the bag.“Allison.”My face softened with a wide grin as I retracted a burgundy velvet box from the bag.“I wonder what this is,” I muttered to myself, as I flipped the box open.My grin widened, to the point where my eyes creased when I saw the contents of the box; it consisted of a golden wristwatch, a pair of golden cufflinks to match with a golden pen.On the three items, my initials–LDS–was intricately inscribed on it.I couldn't help but feel warm and touched by her thoughtful, sentimental gifts, so I decided to forgo my initial choice of cufflinks and wri
My Billionaire Ex-Husband Wants Me Back Wedding
Allison's POV“And I'm done,” Ophelia announced, after giving my face a final dab with the beauty blender. “You look ravishing, Allie.”Clasping my hands together to tame my nervous excitement, I breathed out. “So can I open my eyes now?”“Yes, most definitely.”Inhaling sharply, I flapped my eyes open and gasped on seeing my beautiful reflection in the mirror.Ophelia had hearkened my choice and instructions to the very least detail and had done a great job with both my face and hair.My makeup was a natural, dewy look that accentuated and drew more attention to my facial features rather than having a huge slab of foundation pasted on my face while my hair was tossed in a sleek, french bun with a diamond brooch inserted beside it.I looked like a princess who had just stepped out of a fairytale book, and I could barely hide my excitement as I assessed my face, a huge smile plastered to my face.“I look gorgeous,” I said. “You did a wonderful job, Lia, and I don't know if I'm ever gon

Is Aiden okay?”“Just come quickly, alright? We are waiting for you.” She said, before hanging up.Swallowing harshly, I flung my phone on the bed before making my way to the closet to grab a casual outfit, while hoping everyone was alright.Fuck, I genuinely hoped nothing bad had happened on the eve of my wedding.That would be a sign of bad luck and I didn't want that. I just wanted to have my happily ever after with Leo, Aiden, and possibly our future children.We were currently lodged in a hotel in Las Vegas, as that was the destination of our wedding.Leo, his
My Billionaire Ex-Husband Wants Me Back Sexcapade
Leo's POV “Stop it, can't you see that Aiden is here?” Allison scolded me, as I slotted my hand beneath her shirt to cup her breasts.The three of us were sitting on a sofabed in the private sitting room of my beach house in Turkey. Three days had passed since I proposed to Allison and we officially became a soon-to-be married couple.The rest of our family were currently at the other side of the beach house. I had designed the building of the beach house in such a way that my little family and I could have our own private time whenever we wanted, without any disturbance.“But his attention is fixated on Mickey mouse. He can't see us.” I argued, sliding my hand in between her legs which earned me a smack on the shoulder followed by a glare.As I made to defend myself yet again, my phone vibrated with a message.Reading through the text message which was sent by my mum, I smiled. “Mum and Dad are going for a walk downtown and they want to take Aiden with them.”“A walk with grandma an

My Billionaire Ex-Husband Wants Me Back Wedding anniversary
Allison's POV “Ophelia called just now. They are leaving very soon, so we have to be on our way now.” Leo announced, as I helped Aiden into his shoes.“Alright, we are ready,” I said then averted my gaze to Aiden. “Right, baby?”“Yes, mummy!” He beamed like a Cheshire cat. “We are ready to meet uncle Liam and Aunty Lia.”Today was the twenty-seventh wedding anniversary of Leo's parents, and so, we were currently in America to celebrate the beautiful occasion with them.To me, they were the most adorable couple that I had ever seen and met.They both loved each other so much and Mr Alessandro always seemed to be worshipping the ground his wife stepped on. He looked at her with so much adoration and love and it was just so heartwarming.“Fuck, I can't believe I forgot,” Leo said, moments later as he parked the car in the driveway of the event center. “What did you forget?” I huffed incredulously, to which Leo smiled before pressing a quick, chaste kiss to my lips.“This and I also for
My Billionaire Ex-Husband Wants Me Back Family outing
Allison’s POV “You look ravishing, baby,” Leo complimented as he walked into the room, a smirk plastered to his lips as he regarded my body. “Thanks, babe.” I darted him a quick smile before returning my attention to my reflection in the mirror and putting finishing touches to my makeup. I was clad in a figure-hugging lilac dress that stopped past my knees while my feet were slid in a pair of violet heels and my purse was silver. “What do you say we cancel the date and just stay home?” He suggested coming behind me to lock his arm around my waist. “We can always N*****x and chill, my love.” “I'm sorry, horndog but that isn't happening,” I said, then pressed a kiss to the corner of his lips and eased myself out of his hold to grab my purse from the dresser. “By the way, I thought we were meeting at the restaurant. What changed?” “Nothing, I just decided to come pick you and Aiden up.” He shrugged. “And I don't regret changing my mind because I've got a lovely view of your ethereal
