Bella's POVTwitching her lips in annoyance Alexia replied rudely," You may be the wife of our Boss but the rules of our company apply to everyone. Even the Boss himself follows his rules diligently."I was too stunned to say something to that overconfidence b*tch. I decided to walk off without getting into an argument but my feet paused when I heard Alexia spreading rumours about me to other employees." Do you know that our boss's wife is a crazy playgirl? She changes men like clothes every night."" OMG! Is that true Alexia?"" Yes, absolutely. I was told by Boss to solve her recent scandals."" Oh no. Why would Boss get married to someone like her? She doesn't even care about his reputation and dignity!"" Probably because she's the beloved daughter of chairman Austin Dior. The richest man of France must have bribed chairman Alden Mcadam..."I couldn't tolerate anymore of their nonsense. I turned back, pulled Alexia to face me and landed a resounding slap across her face. The offi
Bella's POV I was too stunned at the sight of the man who I hated the most was there for me. How could he show up in front of me after insulting me earlier? But now was not my situation to fight with him because I was drugged by this molester George Bacardi. I watched my husband beating the hell out of that molester George. And he made sure to smash his face to make him unattractive,full of wounds and blood. My jaws dropped off in horror as I noticed the ruthlessness in Caspar's eyes. Even in the dim-lighted club's room, I could see his tensed burrows and angry facial expressions. For a minute I got distracted by the people's murmuring and I looked at the crowd outside. They were gossiping among themselves and were eager to stop the fight but had no courage to confront Billionaire Caspar Mcadam himself. No-one even dared to click photos or record videos because they were scared of getting sued by Caspar's managing director. Me being left with no option stepped forward and grabbe
Bella's POV "Is this what you gotta say ?" Caspar asked in his annoyed voice and continued further," Where are you and with whom you are? Alex said you were invited to a birthday party by an online friend. What's his username? I'll look into his biography!" Caspar's words irritated me. His caring attitude made me feel suffocated that I couldn't help but pull Victor close by his shirt's collar and kiss him. I made it hearable for Caspar. And just as I expected Caspar shouted," Who the fuck you just kissed? Bella doesn't play with me. I'll make sure to kill whoever you just kissed. Stay there, I'm coming right now." Saying that Caspar ended the call and I laughed out loudly. Don't know why I felt so satisfied after angering him. "Should we continue Boss," Victor asked. "Nope. You guys have to leave before my psychopath husband arrives. You already know the level of his anger since you interacted with Xavier Hill in the underworld many times," I said as I took a sip from my wine's
Bella's POVFuck,his shameless comment made me weak in knees and I couldn't help but blush like crazy. But during our romance I noticed the clock striking 11 pm. I asked Caspar to help me get cleaned. We took our time in his office washroom, cleaned each other and finally put on the new clothes. He just wore his sweatpants and shirt, and the weather was a bit cold so he put on his oversized hoodie jacket. I opened his closet and found out there were no clothes for women. So I grabbed one of his sweatpants and shirt and hoodie. When I was done,he smiled at me and chuckled,"Bella,you look hot–"I'm exhausted. We can continue our romance when we arrive at the mansion," I said, stopping him in the middle because if I didn't,he would continue buttering me. "Alright wifey,"saying that he opens his office's door only to see Alex and other senior directors of the company standing outside. Alex had a very tired and stressed expression while the directors standing behind him were sighing con
Caspar's POVFinally my name was called. I was waiting for it impatiently. I adjusted my coat and brushed my hair with my fingers before walking on the stage. Taking the mic from the host I looked at the front and greeted everyone present there. But my eyes were fixed on the front row where my beautiful wife was sitting. Her brows were furrowed and I could tell she's not okay with my seat arrangements. I thought she would love sitting like a queen in the front row with no-one beside her. I guess my plan of making her feel special failed. "Mr Caspar Mcadam is awarded with the best Ceo of the year. His performance in keeping his company's stock high has greatly pushed out economical development. He also donated a generous amount to the monastery taking care of orphanage children," the host appreciated my deeds and handed me the sterling golden statue of globe award. Clearing my throat I said, "Good evening ladies and gentlemen. I thank the national economic department for awarding me
Bella's POV"I love you and that's all that should matter to you. I'll never make a mistake of bringing up your past or humiliating you on the basis of that. I give you my word," he confessed, his voice full of sincerity and dedication. My tears turned into happiness, that moment I felt like the luckiest woman. The man feared by everyone in the underworld was being gentle and soft to me. It somehow gives me butterflies. His gentleness and the way he explains everything to me in his stuttering voice so that I do not misunderstand his intention. All of this wants me to tease him. I joined my hands with his, curling my fingers into his fingers and leaning my face on his shoulder. I whispered,"I get it. Don't get flustered. However, today I want to tell you about everything I have been hiding from you." "I, too, have many secrets which I wish to share with you before our official marriage." I lifted my face up from his shoulder and brought my lips close to his, I was about to kiss him
Bella's POV3:00 a.m,"Oh are we finally leaving?" I chuckled, pecking lightly on his lips. My jealousy calmed down as soon as he talked to me in a loving tone. I guess I will take revenge on him some other time. Let's not ruin the mood. That's what I thought but Erick and Luna followed us. "Brother, we are going to company, right?" Erick asked. "Yes. The time we will arrive will be already working hours."I could imagine the disappointment on Caspar's face. I don't know why Luna was tagging with us. Is she following them because they have some business with her? Anything can be possible because Luna is from their mafia group. Caspar, Erick and Luna were talking about business and broadcasting companies in America. I felt like a fourth wheel stuck between them. It's not like I don't know about broadcasting companies here but they were not asking me about anything. 'Look at him. He was being flirty and loving with me until Luna made her appearance. Cheeky bastard,'I cursed under
Bella's POV "What could I be forgetting about?" Caspar mumbled as he stroked his chin in a thoughtful way. Then raising his face up he asked,"Is our wedding anniversary today?Or is it your parents' anniversary?" 'Wow! I'm speechless at his nonchalant reply. Should I just punch his stupid face?' I thought. No, I'll ruin his handsome face which I admire watching all day long! I should give him silent treatment. Sighing deeply I forced myself to smile and say,"Oh it's nothing special. Why are you here during your working hours? Are you here to monitor me?""Oh no, I would never do that," saying that Caspar gets up. "I only came here after Alex told me that you plan to reorganise QUEEN's goals and objectives. I wish you goodluck. Hope you prove me wrong by enlisting QUEEN into top 3 profiting companies." "Thank you, I'll give my best.""Then I'll see you at the mansion," Caspar said."Why?" I abruptly asked,"Are we not going together?""Sorry about that, I have an urgent meeting in th
BELLA."What do you mean?" I crawled backwards, making a visible distance from him. "I'm not going anywhere, I need to go back to Saint Petersburg. My flight is already booked, so tell your so-called boss I have no fucking time."Saying that I got up from the floor and started to walk out when suddenly Alex grabbed my right wrist and dragged me inside. Tossing me on the floor, he casually shrugs off his shoulders and scratches his head with the tip of the gun."I think you are misinterpreting my words, Miss Bella." "What do you mean?" I knitted my eyebrows in seriousness, but I was tripsy and barely holding myself together. "Alex, you better take care of the mess you created," I said pointing at the dead bodies of John and his bodyguards. To which Alex laughed. Taking steps towards me, he kicked the bodies out of his way. "That's not the problem here, but if you refuse to go with me then it could become a problem…""I will call the cops and say you were the one to shoot them dead. A
BELLA.At 12:30 am, Random nightclub, New York City."Miss, you should stop drinking, I suggest," Vincent advised me with a look of concern when I asked the bartender for another whiskey bottle. I turned back to look at Vincent with my swollen eyes and smiled at him."Do not worry, Vincent. Few bottles of whiskey ain't going to make me drunk. I have higher alcohol tolerance than you might think." "Miss, still it's not okay. We should be leaving for Saint Petersburg before reporters find you," Vincent insisted with concerned expressions. The scene which was caused by me at Caspar's wedding had started appearing on social media. Like a forest fire, it was spreading on every news channel and I might soon be surrounded by the reporters. But I was unbothered, I can endure it. What was troubling was the behaviour of Caspar! How could he ignore me after pushing me down and caring about that fake bitch? Is he really in love with her now? All men are the same! Caspar is no exception, he als
BELLA. "No. Please don't say like that," I panicked seeing the pain in his eyes, I felt my heart ache in his pain. "I-I love you, Caspar. I have always loved you, after marrying you there has never been a man who made my heart flutter other than you. You are the light of my messed up world… you–""Bella!" He thundered as he called my name in order. Glaring at me, he retorted,"Lies. All you say is lies. Do you think I'm blind? I have seen you making out with your male nanny Lucas even after our marriage." "I can… I can explain to you…""I do not want your damn explanation which is nothing just a bunch of made-up excuses to prove yourself innocent," he scoffed as if he gave no fuck about my damn words and proceeded to scold me further. "I can still imagine you riding on his fucking dick even after I killed him with my very own hands. Was your male nanny that attractive to you, huh? You forgot about me!" Oh no, Caspar isn't willing to understand my situation. That time I wasn't aware
BELLA. "Bella, I can't imagine you were so stupid enough to take your life," My brother, Olivier started nagging at me again. "What would have happened if Vincent hadn't informed me about your behaviour!" I lowered my head and just kept nodding, I was still not over the shock. That night I was so emotionally occupied that I didn't even hesitate to take my own life. Thankfully Olivier arrived and I fell right into his arms otherwise I would have ended up with broken limbs or maybe dead. I was blinded in jealousy and thought taking my life would bring Caspar back. The fool I was! I even neglected my daughter. "Bella, why are you quiet? I'm expecting an answer," Olivier gets up from the sofa and walks towards me. Standing tall, in front of where I was seated, he asked,"Vincent, what made her so anxious. Is there anything I'm not able to provide to my little sister?" I immediately looked up at him and denied. "Brother, I'm completely fine. I lack nothing, however I was not myself for
CASPAR."B-Boss,"Alex stuttered as his eyes saw the sight of what I was witnessing. "I-I do not have any idea about this." "That's because Sharapova family is very mysterious family. Nobody has ever extracted all the information on them," Zion interrupted as he watched Bella with child and another man. "They're liquor tycoon family so they have connection with underworld as well as army. And the strange fact about them is, they have no enemies, no competitors in business."I turned back to Zion and gave me a surprised look. "Is Sharapova family the oldest family in Saint Petersburg?""No. No, they are around for 20+ years, that's what amazes anyone." I was surprised but soon I saw that man hugging Bella. My blood boiled as I clenched my fists and got inside the car. "Zion got inside, we are not staying in the villa. Book my flight to New York, I'm returning." Shocked, Alex leaned close to the car's window and asked,"What about the invitation card? Weren't you planning on inviting M
CASPAR."B-Bella…," I couldn't even hear my voice, I was numb and shocked. Fear of losing her made me feel like a stranger in darkness, not knowing or understanding what to do next. My hands started shaking as my brain went blank, my heart raced repeatedly as if it would stop any time soon. Trembling voice called her name again,"Bella… Can you hear me?"DEAD SILENCE I received no response other than silence and sounds of heavy rain. I fell on my knees and dropped the phone on the floor, I covered my face and regretted it. Folding my lips in, I suppressed my tears and emotions. Isn't that what I wanted? I wanted her dead because she betrayed and attempted to kill me! Why am I feeling so dead despite being alive? What's wrong with me? I questioned my actions, I tried to calm down however my heart was not willing to stop any time soon. My head was heavy and I was continuously seeing Bella's body covered in blood. "No. No. She's not allowed to kill herself! I must be the one to bless
BELLA."What?" I heard Caspar's angry growl, he was definitely cursing me for being so shameless. "Do you no longer value your life? You are fucking inviting me to kill you?" "Understand whatever you want, I-I just wish to meet you once…please."I was disrespecting my dignity and begging him for one glance. I must have lost my mind for sure. I was shocked when I heard Caspar's laughter, it sounded like he was having fun listening to my pleading. And as desperate I was, I continued begging him. I don't know what I was even expecting from him…"Bella, don't be so impatient. I'll soon meet you with my wife," he chuckled, hitting the nail in my heart. "You don't have to beg me, I'll make sure to invite you to my wedding with Nancy." My last string of hope snapped and I became sure that he did not care for me anymore. He was blinded by her, the other woman who was not me. "Caspar," I screamed at the top of my lungs, losing my temper. "Caspar, you can't do this to me… you can't marry the
BELLA.My hands started shaking in horror, I quickly changed the channel. Searching for any news channel reporting about Caspar being alive and my thought came true. The remote fell down from my hand as I slapped my mouth in fear and shock. "H-How could he be alive? I-I remember his heart beat stopped after he collapsed in my arms…"My body started turning cold as the spark of life left me and fear haunted me. I refused to believe the news of only one channel. Grabbing the remote from the floor, I anxiously kept changing the channels and everywhere was the same news broadcasting.My body turned numb, I imagined my end was near. Falling on my knees, I watched the anchor talking about Caspar and showing his pictures. My eyes widened in shock when I saw Caspar attending the video interview with the news anchor. "Mr Caspar Mcadam, it's good to see you recovering from the coma," the anchor said and extended her well wishing him. 'Coma?'I repeated under my breath, so all this time he was
BELLA.Olivier's eyes looked at me with sadness and remorse, I could truly sense it. My brother was always a rebellious man, and never obeyed dad's orders and when dad forced his authority on him, he left the house. Hence proving that nobody can order him around. The only person my brother cared about was me. I still remember when I turned 5 years old, he visited me secretly and gave me jewels of diamonds, rubies, emeralds and whatnot that could be associated with luxury. His dangerously handsome face printed in my mind, I never forget him ever since. The only person who spoiled me when I was just toddler and I blame him for my love for materialistic value. "Brother, how old are you now?" I subconsciously asked him an awkward question which he laughed at and replied."I'm 37 years old now, and no I'm not married, I have no lovers and not even interested in one."My sadness disappeared into a smile. I teased him,"You are telling me to believe a mature man who is gifted with beauty i
