Mona

Jeez. 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

    Mona We finally arrived at the penthouse. It was much bigger than I expected and was designed contemporarily. I didn't know Alex had such a property on the outskirts of the state.An elderly lady was already there to welcome us. The penthouse didn't look deserted, I guess Alex had given it to her to take care of it. She greeted Alex excitedly and he introduced me to her as his wife and introduced the elderly lady to me as Gloria- his mum's close friend. She hugged me briefly and accompanied me to my room. I heaved a sigh of relief and unpacked my bags. After finishing my nightly routine, I was extremely happy crawling into bed. Something about going to bed usually brought me joy and contentment. Maybe, it was the anticipation of a good night's sleep or tomorrow's new beginning that I always looked forward to the next day. Suddenly, there was a knock on my door followed by the turning of the handle. I turned to see Alex coming towards me. "Is something wrong?" I asked, unsure. "No"

    MonaLisaI put on a casual yellow sleeveless dress and went downstairs. I was welcomed by the aroma of blueberry muffins. Alex was dressed in an apron like a chef and he had everything set up: stuffed omelet, scrambled eggs, bacon, blueberry muffins, and sausage."Alex?" I exclaimed with widened eyes as I got closer to the dining table."Good morning wifey. Hope you had a nice rest?" He looked up at me with a cute smile." Yes," I answered shyly."Of course you would" He winked and walked over to me and took my hand in his. "You've always been the one making breakfast for me. So today, I decided to make one for you" He brought out a chair and gestured for me to sit down.I obliged as I blinked my eyes to make sure that I wasn't dreaming. Alexander Marvins, the CEO, and heir to the Marvins empire just made breakfast for me. This must be a good dream and I mustn't wake up from it. "What are you waiting for? Dig in already and tell me what you think" Alex said, rubbing his hand nervousl

    MonaWhen we arrived, he finally let go of my hand to park. Immediately, I jumped out of the car. I ran to the front of the house and admired the beautiful view. It was a large garden with beautiful flowers. The combination of the different colors of flowers added to the beauty. The flowers were grown in an arranged form that made them have a love shape. Everything about it screamed nature and serenity. The garden, divided into neat sections, offered a sanctuary of tranquility and natural beauty.I ran back to Alex who was standing by the car observing me and hugged him. His arms encircled my waist, picked me up, and turned me around as I laughed with glee.Once he stopped and put me down, I said gratefully. "Thank you for bringing me here."A grin appeared on his amused countenance. "You're already this excited even though I haven't told you what we're going to do.""What!?" I couldn't contain my excitement. I hugged his shirt as I looked at him with doe eyes. "What are we going to d

We are finally done with the honeymoon charade and it's time to face reality.Alex got out of the car and held onto my hand. "We have to look like a happy couple who has just returned from their glorious honeymoon " He smiled at me as he led me into the mansion.As expected, Mum and Hana were in the large foyer waiting for our arrival. Dad must have gone to the office. The house was beautifully designed with balloons and a beautiful inscription that said "Welcome home"We had a little party where we talked and laughed about random stuff. After everything, everyone retired with a big smile and tired body.Everything went back to normal as the beautiful pictures managed to clear the dense air and make the public believe that we were married for real not because of any reason but because we were crazily in love with each other.Alex was still acting we

    Monalisa Tears streamed down my eyes as I felt helpless. At that moment, the door was forced open. "Lisa. Surprise" A familiar voice exclaimed excitedly, barging into my office. I raised my head and my joy knew no bounds as I saw Alex staring at me with widened eyes."Alex" I cried.Like a wounded Lion, he got to us with five quick steps. He dragged me away from Felix's suffocating grip as I held onto my heart, breathing heavily."How dare you lay your hands on my wife?" Alex growled and landed a punch in Felix's face.Felix who was caught unawares, tried to retaliate but Alex dodged it and landed another blow on his lip which caused him to bleed. Before he could recover, Alex kicked him and this made him fall to the floor with a great thud.I felt so special watching him fight for me. I can't remember being protected or fought for. I have always been the one fighting for myself and it was so tiring. Alex looked so angry, like a lioness whose cub was hurt, and at that moment, I deci

    MonaAfter telling Mum about our plans to leave the house, she refused and insisted that we should stay back. So Alex had no choice but to tell her our main reason for leaving and that alone, was enough to let us go.Alex had a house under his name in the middle of the city and that night, we moved in. It wasn't as big as the family house but it had the aura of striking exteriors that exude architectural elegance. The interior decoration was top notch and my room was the best definition of perfection.Alex's room was directly opposite mine and I couldn't wait for the day he would finally agree to share the same bed with me again.I tiptoed into the bathroom and removed the rubber tie holding my blond hair together. I allowed the hair to scatter all over my chest, sending a tickling effect to my shoulders. I removed the towel wrapped around my bosom and by now, I was naked. I slid into the bath tub feeling the warm sensation from the water. it's a blissful experience.I smiled widely a

I had taken my bath earlier and made to go out but suddenly lost interest in going to the office and having to see different kinds of food which might end up making me throw up.

    AlexI dragged my feet into my room and slumped on the floor. Monalisa is gone. Isn't this what I have always wanted?. To be a free man. Completely free from the annoying entanglement called marriage. But then, why do I feel sad that she is gone. Why does my heart hurt. Ugh. I hate this feeling.I ran my hand through my head, struggling to keep my loose emotions together. I heard a knock on the door. "Come in" I quickly replied and the door cracked open to reveal exactly what I needed at this moment - alcohol. With the tray which contained the bottle and glass cup in her hands, Nanny Dora headed towards the side table at the end of the bed."Bring it here" I stopped her.She hesitated as she turned to glance at me, probably wondering if it was right for me to be seated on the floor. I don't care right now. I just want to get rid of the emptiness. I let out a sigh as she placed the tray before me, on the floor. "Thank you." She made to leave but paused and turned to me. "Just got a

    AlexI exhaled deeply as I finally brought the car before my huge mansion. I stepped down and rushed towards the main door, hoping that monalisa doesn't hurt herself . Jeez. What just happened. The automatic door pulled open and I rushed in, I was quick enough to halt or I would have collided with Lisa who was hurrying towards the door, rolling her pink travelling bag along."What is going on Lisa?. Why are you with a bag?" I asked, confused. "I'm obviously leaving your life so that you can have all the freedom to go back into the arms of your most beloved Lena " She growled and made to leave but I blocked her." What are you saying Mona?. You can't leave me just like that " I countered. " I know you are angry right now but it would be better we talk it over than making such a haste decision to leave "" Talk over?. Look Alex. There is nothing to discuss here. You have chosen who you want to be with and I'm sick and tired of being a sideline. I'm sick and tired of hoping for a relat

    AlexI was trying to get clothes for Mona when I got a text message from Lena. She has arranged an apology surprise package for Lisa and would want me to check it out before inviting Mona over. Mona has been moody since their fight, I just hope this surprise will lighten up her mood again and probably, they will become friends.It was a few minutes drive and I finally got to Silverado's hotel. I got out of my car and walked into the large building. The moment I stepped in, the receptionist seemed to be waiting for my arrival as she quickly got to me and escorted me to the room."Come in." Lena's voice came as the young lady knocked on the door.I muttered a thank you to the receptionist before stepping in. I closed the door and turned to see Lena seated on the bed with no sight of any surprise package. "Hi, Alex" Lena chuckled as she stood up from the bed and walked towards me. She was dressed in a red gown which had a side slit, revealing her laps."I thought you said you prepared a

    MonalisaAlex kept on picking different wears, I turned many down but accepted a few. I was just not in the mood. Particularly not in the mood to shop with him. Because each time I set my eyes on him, I was worried that Lena would do as she threatened. No matter how much I tried to look happy, deep down I was really sad and scared.No matter what I say, Alex is still adamant about being friends with Lena. He trusts her so much and doesn't want to listen to me. I'm so scared that history will repeat itself again. I'm not even close to him, so it would be really easy for Lena to take him away from me."Mona. " A familiar voice yelled, bringing me out of my thoughts. I raised my head to see Kate walking towards me with smiles plastered all over her face.I jumped up to my feet and ambled over, into her arms. "Thank goodness you are here. I'm so happy to see you" She giggled as we disengaged from the hug. "How are you? ""I'm fine. What are you doing here?" I asked." I asked her to com

    Alex I furrowed my brows as Mona climbed down the stairs in a short gown, revealing her perfectly straight laps. It reminded me of the gown yesterday, I guess that stupid man got enticed by it and thought it cool to woo someone else's wife.Mona didn't even say a word to me as she joined me on the table. At that moment, I decided that it was time to go shopping and get her maternity gowns. All her clothes are getting shorter due to her bump. Her body belongs to me alone and exposing too much of it, is not cool at all."After breakfast, we are going shopping" I announced.She raised her eyebrows. "All of a sudden? Nah. I'm not in the mood. Some other day" She has been acting strange since we returned from the party yesterday. I don't know what transpired between her and Lena but I was surprised to see them fighting and to avoid giving the media something to gossip, I had to forcefully take her home. She should be grateful to me instead of acting all moody.Well, that wouldn't stop m

    Monalisa"Hey, wifey. You're here?" Alex suddenly appeared and threw his arm over my shoulder. "And who is he?" He added with a death glare at Leonard. Ugh. Why does he have to show up now and ruin my beautiful moment with this hottie? "Wifey?. You're married?" Leonard asked with confusion written on his face."No..I.." I tried to say but Alex cut me off."Yes. She is my wife. Why? Do you have a problem with that?" He bit out."No. Not really. Sorry for the inconvenience." He apologized. " See you around Lisa" He turned to me with a warm smile before walking away."Bye," I giggled excitedly just to spite Alex.As soon as he was gone, Alex took his hand off my shoulders. "See you around Lisa" He mimicked. "How dare that bastard flirt with my wife before my face?".He looked at me with anger written on his face as I tried to hold in my laughter. He looks like a child whose portion of food was messed with."What do you think you are doing?" He snarled at me. "What do you mean? I was j

    MonalisaI ran through my wardrobe, contemplating what to wear. I have to look as hot as my husband so that no lady would be able to snatch his eyes away from my body.Alex was invited to a ball party by one of his business partners. Although I wasn't in the mood to party, I had to agree to go with him to protect him from the evil eyes of women like Lena. I just have a feeling that she will be there.All my clothes were either short, too revealing, or too tight on me. While the remaining was so against my fashion taste. I guess my fashion sense has changed too.After a while, I settled for a red sleeveless flowing gown which was slit by the side, revealing my sexy legs. I put on a light makeup. I would have called Kate to help me get dressed up but she has tight schedules lately and I don't want to add to her stress.I wore a long gold earrings which shone brightly under the chandeliers. I slipped my feet into my black-heeled shoes and packed up my straightened hair in a ponytail.I t

It has been a while since I visited him in his office, I'm sure he will be surprised. I even made his favorite pancakes and strawberries toppings. This was the best way to repay him for the surprise outing yesterday.I got out of the car, put on my bold sunglasses, picked up the bag that contained the dish I made for Alex, and sashayed past the wide glass door which automatically opened as soon as I approached it.I was excitedly greeted by the surprised employees. I guess some of them had noticed my bump. I replied to those I could and waved at others with a forced smile. I got into the elevator but paused when I noticed a familiar figure walking past me.I hurried out to make sure I wasn't mistaken. My jaw dropped in disbelief when I confirmed that it was Lena."Lena" I exclaimed with gritted teeth. As soon as she heard her name, she turned behind immediately and
