Lena

I let out a deep breath as I pulled up my car before the huge building - my boyfriend's company. For the past few weeks, Alex has not checked up on me nor is he picking up my calls. This is very unlike him and it makes me wonder if everything is alright.

I stepped out of my car and picked up the glass-framed picture of I and Alex looking all sweet and happy. I don't know why he's avoiding me but I will surprise him with this and confess my feelings to him.

This is probably one of the hardest decisions I have ever made but I have no choice. I know Alex doesn't believe in love but I can't continue pretending that I haven't fallen for him- He at least deserves to know the truth.

I walked through the glass door into the ever-busy hall with a big smile on my face. As soon as the nosy employees saw me, they greeted me. The naive ones slightly bowed while the brave ones muttered a loud "Good morning".

I just nodded at them as I got into the elevator. Each step I took towards Alex's offi

    LenaMy feet wouldn't let me stop as I ran out of his office and down the stairs. I couldn't tell how many I went down but finally, my tired legs stopped.I crumbled to the floor and started sobbing. I'm so stupid. If only I had rejected him that night. I shouldn't have let my love for him blind me. But why is it so hard for him to love me back? What does that Lisa have that I don't? My body racked as more sobs came. I was so angry, upset, sad, and hurt that I just couldn't think logically and rationally.I blindly got out of the building. By the time I got to my car, I couldn't even remember how I got there. Did I take the elevator or the stairs?.. I couldn't tell. I drove aimlessly and after what seemed like forever, I arrived home. I picked up my sunglasses and put them on as I trodded into the large foyer. Luckily, no one stopped me as I climbed up to my room.I crawled onto my bed. I brought my knees up to my chin and hugged them tightly as I sobbed into myself. My voice sounde

    Mona Lisa My heart skipped as I realized how much I had missed this sound. I got up to leave and he seized one of my wrists. "Please don't go" His pleading completely stopped me in my tracks. "It's late"As if that was the real reason why I was leaving, I saw the clock on the nightstand and it said 11:50 pm."Please stay." He begged again. He wasn't the type to beg so I knew it was the alcohol talking. As I was having internal battles with myself on whether I should stay or not, he added. "I need you."That simple statement destroyed my resolve to leave. I sat back down as he tried to sit up and lean back against the headboard. I stood up and grabbed the lapel of his suit jacket with one hand and the end sleeve with the other." Here, let me help you take this off so you'll be more comfortable."He moved away from the headboard so I could take the jacket off and leaned back again, once I was done. I took off his shoes as well."My sweet wife," He said tenderly as I sat back down. T

    Mona Lisa I froze immediately. I have always heard that Alex's father was strict and harsh. My heart pounded heavily as I wondered what he was going to do to me for playing games with him."Welcome, Dad. Would you like to have coffee?" I asked, trying to lessen the tense environment.He hesitated. "No. I just came here to stare at you. I mean, I'm so impressed that I had to take away some time from my busy schedule to watch the lady who was able to deceive me for a good twelve months."I swallowed hard. He is really angry and none of this would be able to appease him. I guess I have to face the music now. I made a mistake and I have to own up to it.I gave myself many reasons to be brave but the thought of who Mr Marvin was, made my soft heart worry."I'm sorry Dad. I'm sorry" Was all I could mumble. I waited for him to reply but he didn't. Rather he kept staring at me. His eyes bored into my skin, making me uncomfortable and more worried.Was he thinking of the best way to kill me?

    Monalisa Alex let out a deep breath as soon as he was gone. He turned to me sharply. " You must feel so happy to go be with another man ". He said with gritted teeth. I could see the rage in his eyes. The old Lisa would have screamed and told him how much I wanted to be with him, him alone. But not anymore. I will give Dad's advice a trial. I have to find out if Alex loves me and the only way to do that, is to make him jealous. "And what if I do, do you have a problem with that?" " Yes, I do. I have a damn problem with that." He almost yelled. " As long as we still live together, I consider you as mine. And for the record, I don't like sharing what belongs to me with others"What has gotten into him? He doesn't want to put the ring on my hand and yet, he doesn't want to let go of me. Does he think I'm some kind of kid that he can control?"I'm not your toy. So I'll do whatever pleases me and there is nothing you or anyone can do about it" I sneered.He scoffed and slowly walked to

    MonalisaI couldn't continue anymore as tears freely flew down my eyes. Slut? Me?. I slumped on my couch as I felt my world crumbling and crushing before my face. I have become a joke. No one is talking about Alex, they're all focused on me. Why is society so messed up? I never threw myself on Alex, he was the one that came to me and not the other way round.I felt a hand on my back, I raised my head to see Alex staring at me with reassuring eyes. "Don't let what they say get to you. I will find out who is behind this and deal with them accordingly" He assured.Is he really this dumb or is he trying to be dumb? Apart from the family, the only person that knows that our marriage is a contract is Lena. She is the one behind this. She must have exposed my fake marriage just to get back at me."Take your hands off me." I almost yelled and pushed him away as he stumbled backward. "This is all your fault. You're the reason why all this is happening."He etched his brows in confusion. "Monal

    Alex My face lit up in relief as Monalisa slowly opened her bleary eyes. I got up from the sofa where I had been seated for hours watching her cute face and wondering how she would react to what I was about to tell her and hurried to where she lay and drew her up into my arms.Regret and guilt surged through my bones, I struggled to convince myself that I was not a bad person but just a young man who was struggling with scattered emotions. I can't believe I toyed with the feelings of two women. I have managed to let go of one and refused to let the other go nor draw her close. I would have gone for the latter but I was really scared.- scared of ending up like my parents.Mona let out a cough and that made me realize that I was holding her tight. Jeez. I almost choked her to death. I muttered a "sorry" and let go of her. She had an expressionless look on her face as she sat properly on the bed with her back resting on the wall behind her."Mona. How are you? Do you feel any pain?"S

    MonaJeez. What is wrong with me? I quickly brought up my hand to clean my tears. I shouldn't cry for him. I shouldn't be this weak before him. Unfortunately, the more I tried to clean my tears, the more they came rolling down.What is wrong with my stupid eyes? This must be the side effects of being pregnant. It must be.Alex walked up to me and sat down beside me on the bed. He held onto my hand as I looked up sadly at him. My heart etched to ask him what about me? I wanted to ask him why he wasn't bothered about my feelings. "I appreciate your concern towards trying to clear my name but I don't think I can agree to this marriage thing. I would rather bear with the bad reputation than get stuck in another fake marriage" I said through gritted teeth as I snatched away my hand from his." What?. Fake marriage? This isn't a fake marriage. It's a court marriage."" It doesn't matter whether it's a Court marriage or not. What matters is that you're not getting married to me because you

    MonalisaI rubbed my bleary eyes and sat up on the bed. I stretched my body and yawned simultaneously. It was finally morning and my joy knew no bounds. I barely managed to sleep last night as I kept thinking of today's journey. Alex had told me that we would be going for our honeymoon to make the marriage look more real. After posting our marriage pictures to debunk the news about me entering a contract marriage with Alex, the Netizens went quiet while some were wise enough to wish us a happy married life.I hope those jealous ladies die of a heart attack. Alex is mine alone.I stood up and got started for the day. I brushed my teeth and took my bath. It was a quick one as I scurried out, humming to my favorite hip-hop song."Just smile for me and let the day begin. You're the sunshine that lights my heart and day. I'm sure you are like an angel in the sky. Come, take my hands and together we shall fly"I changed into a blue jeans trouser and a white hoodie. I giggled happily and pac

    LisaThe soft hum of the city outside was drowned by the rhythmic breathing of my sleeping angel. With a cup of milkshake in hand, I tiptoed into the nursery, where the golden morning light painted warm hues across the walls. My little prince lay peacefully in his crib, his tiny fingers curled into loose fists, his delicate lashes fanning over his rosy cheeks. It had only been a few minutes since I left him to make my drink, yet it felt like I had been away for hours.A soft smile stretched across my lips as I leaned over, my heart swelling with indescribable love. Gently, I ran a finger down his velvety cheek, memorizing every inch of his perfect face, his button nose, the tiny lips that occasionally puckered in his sleep. He had his father’s sharp features, but his deep brown eyes were unmistakably mine.The nursery, adorned with plush animals and a celestial-themed mobile, carried the faint scent of baby powder and lavender, creating a cocoon of warmth and tranquility. Alex had gon

    LisaDays blurred into weeks, and weeks melted into months. My mother had returned to her hotel in California, the one Alex had set up for her, and transformed it into a thriving five-star establishment. She had always been a force to reckon with, turning every opportunity into something grand. My father, on the other hand, had vanished from my life. A part of me wanted to care, but every time that feeling surfaced, I quickly buried it under a mountain of reasons why he didn’t deserve my concern. Maybe pregnancy had softened my heart, but not enough to forgive a man who had only ever brought me pain.A warm arm wrapped around my waist, pulling me from my storm of thoughts. Gentle fingers caressed my swollen belly, sending waves of warmth through me. I inhaled deeply, recognizing the intoxicating scent of Alex’s cologne before his lips brushed against my ear."What’s troubling my beautiful wife?" His deep voice sent a delicious shiver down my spine.Even after all this time, he still h

    LisaA sharp vibration in my palm pulled me from my thoughts. My phone had beeped. A message from Alex."They're here."A slow smirk curved my lips before I quickly wiped it away, returning to my somber expression. The real show was about to begin.Donald’s eyes pleaded with me, his voice shaking under the weight of regret. "I'm really sorry, dear. I didn’t mean to hurt you and your mother."I let out a bitter chuckle, folding my arms. "You didn’t mean to hurt us?" I repeated, my voice dripping with sarcasm. "That’s the best you can come up with? You knew we had nothing. You knew how helpless we were, yet you still left. You abandoned my mother—the woman who stood by you when you had nothing—just to chase after another woman’s wealth. Tell me, Donald, did you hate us that much?"His eyes widened in panic. "No, I don’t! I never did! I love you and your mother. I just...""To hell with your love." My voice rose, my breath shaky as emotions surged through me. "If you cared about us like

    LisaMy heels clicked against the polished marble floor as I stepped into the grand hotel lobby. The air was crisp with the scent of expensive cologne and freshly brewed coffee, but even that couldn’t calm the storm raging inside me. I had agreed to meet Mr. Donald, yet with every step toward the room, my heart pounded harder against my ribcage.I had seen him countless times on television, and every time, all I felt was raw, unfiltered hatred. So why was today different? Was it because I would finally see him in person, just the two of us, no cameras, no distractions?I swallowed hard. God, I wish Alex was here. If only he could hold my hand, tell me I’d be alright. But no, I needed to do this alone.A poised young woman in a crisp uniform approached me, her smile polished and professional."Mrs. Marvins, I presume?" Her voice was smooth, almost too welcoming.I nodded."Welcome, ma'am. Please come with me. Mr. Donald has been waiting for you." She gestured toward the stairs, leading

    AlexThe tension in the room was suffocating. Monalisa paced back and forth across my study, her heels clicking sharply against the polished floor. Her brows were furrowed, her expression unreadable. The silence stretched between us like a taut rope, ready to snap at any moment.I shifted uneasily in my chair, my fingers gripping the armrests. She had just told me about her confrontation with Lena, about the outrageous claim that she was pregnant with my child. But that was impossible. I had never once had unprotected sex with Lena. So how in the world could she be carrying my child?My jaw clenched as frustration surged through me. This is not right. I hissed under my breath, running a hand through my hair. Why did this have to happen now? Just when things were finally getting better between Monalisa and me?I could feel the storm brewing in the air. Monalisa abruptly stopped pacing and turned to glare at me. My heart pounded. The weight of her gaze was heavier than any accusation sh

    DonaldI ran my hand through my hair for what felt like the hundredth time, frustration twisting my gut. How had things gone so wrong? For years, I had considered Mr. Marvin a friend but all this time, he had been nothing more than a snake, lurking in the grass, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.Days ago, my financial secretary called, his voice laced with urgency, to inform me that the Marvins had suddenly withdrawn their shares. Just like that, without warning. And the timing couldn't have been worse. We were in the middle of production for our latest car model. The betrayal hit me like a punch to the gut.Fuming, I had immediately reached out to Mr. Marvin, demanding an explanation. But his response was as cold as ice. “Speak to my daughter-in-law. She’s in charge now.”The audacity.I thought we were about to become family. And yet, they had discarded me like a piece of trash the moment they saw fit. I should have seen this coming. Maybe if I had learned my lesson when the

    Lisa"Are we going to your summer house?" I asked, my voice laced with excitement.Alex nodded, and I gasped, my heart skipping a beat."But how did you know?" he asked, his brows drawing together in confusion.I sucked in a sharp breath. I wasn’t supposed to say that out loud.The truth was, I had seen it in his childhood diary, the one where he poured out his innocent dreams before the world turned him cold. In one of the pages, he had written about building a summer house, a place where he would escape with his Cinderella, the one woman who would truly belong to him. I had wondered what could have happened to that hopeful little boy to make him grow into the ruthless man he had become.But I couldn’t tell him that. He wouldn’t take it well."I… I just made a guess," I improvised quickly. "I mean, if you can have a penthouse, then you should also have a summer house, right?"It sounded weak, even to my own ears, but I prayed he wouldn’t press further.Alex studied me for a moment be

    LisaI still couldn't believe it—this was Alex, the same cold-hearted man who once made me cry myself to sleep every night. Now, he was spoiling me with gifts, affection, and surprises. It was almost too good to be true.Today, he had suddenly asked me to step out with him. I had no idea what he had planned, but I didn’t care. As long as I was with him, I knew it would be worth it. I grabbed my bag, ensuring I had everything I might need, and hurried out to meet him.Sliding into the luxurious black Rolls Royce, I fastened my seatbelt and turned to him, excitement bubbling in my chest. “So, where are we going?” I asked eagerly.He chuckled, his deep voice sending a shiver down my spine. “It’s a surprise. You’ll find out soon enough.”I leaned back, observing him as he started the car. My husband. The word still felt surreal. Dressed simply in a fitted red t-shirt, blue jeans, and a black cap, he exuded effortless charm. Even if he wore a trash bag, I was sure he’d still look devastati

    LisaI reached out in my half-asleep daze, expecting the comforting warmth of Alex’s chest beneath my cheek, only to find… nothing.My fingers brushed against the cold sheets where he should have been. My heart stilled. My eyes snapped open.The other side of the bed was empty.I sat up, my mind racing as a sense of déjà vu hit me like a wave. The night before had been magical—his hands on me, his whispers against my skin, the way he held me like I was the only thing that mattered in his world. Had it all been a dream?I swallowed hard, glancing down at myself. I was still naked, my nightgown neatly folded beside me on the bed, just as he had done the last time.The last time…A bitter chill crept into my veins as the memories crashed over me. Waking up happy, only to be shattered by his cold words."It was a mistake, Lisa."I had spent days convincing myself that this time was different, that he had changed, that I meant more to him now. But what if I was wrong?"You’re a fool, Lisa,
