Reborn Heiress: Taming My Celebrity Husband Chapter 35: Missing her so much
Kai's POVI had a tiring day and I just want to drown my sorrows in a drink. My two cousins, who are siblings, looked at me with surprise."Did something happen at work, George?" Walter inquired.George took a sip of his whiskey and let out a deep sigh. "Just a case of lovesickness. Let's drink with him. He needs to pass out, or else we'll be the first ones to fall asleep," George remarked.Walter sighed and poured another shot of whiskey into my glass. I downed it as if it were just water. "Lovesick? Me? Did you forget who I am, George? Hah!" I scoffed at what I had heard.I threw the glass again, and George handed me another one. I signaled to Walter to pour another shot. "Looks like my little brother was right. You're clearly showing signs," Walter said.I slouch on the couch and fold my arms, letting out a laugh. “She should’ve called me back! I ignored her call once, but it's been seven hours and she still hasn't called again! That woman!” I vented. I feel incredibly frustrated r

emotional barrier I had put up was no longer there. Ultimately, I decided to follow my heart's desires instead of heeding my rational thoughts. I couldn't resist it - I am in love with him. That's why I am willing to deceive myself."I'm heading out to teach them a lesson. I had planned to act oblivious and hesitant. Let's test the truth behind the staff's alleged racism. After that, I will meet with the head of the union for the rally," I declared. It's already three in the afternoon here in London."Best of luck then. Come back home as soon as you can, alright? I want to celebrate our first month together," Kai remarked. His words caught me off guard."Celebrating a first month together? Isn't that a bit cliché? I mean... I'm sorry. I've never actually done something like that," I admitted quietly.I could hear his gentle laughter on the other end. Swallowing my pride the previous night was worth it. "I want to celebrate with my wife. It's my first time marking such an occasion," he
Reborn Heiress: Taming My Celebrity Husband Chapter 38: Her decisions for EGRC
Raine's POVWhile we wait for the head of the union, I asked the employees to bring us some food. "So the ruthless and unstoppable queen was really scary, huh?" Jillian said, which made me laugh."Not really. I just dislike when people use their position to make others doubt themselves or how they live their lives. We all have our own status and pace, and that should be respected," I whispered. Jillian nodded and smiled.After waiting for five minutes, the man I had been expecting was sent by one of the staff. I greeted him with a smile before he closed the door."Good evening, Mr. Jacks. Please take a seat. Dinner is ready," I said. He glanced at me and Jillian, appearing worried and nervous. "Come on, let's start eating," I suggested.To put them at ease, I began eating first. As they started eating, I decided to speak before we finished the dish. "I heard that you and other employees from all five restaurant branches here in Lon

Kai's POVAfter catching a glimpse of my internet browsing, Walter and George fixed their gaze on me and placed their hands on my shoulder. "What are you up to, cousin?" George asks.As I crossed my legs and caressed my lips, I let out a sigh. "What you see is what you get," I replied simply.They took seats beside me and pressed on. "That's why we're asking! What's with the Pinterest search for sexy lingerie?!"Walter's voice grated on my nerves, prompting me to touch my ears and glare at him. "Don't even think it's for me! I'll punch your face," I warned sternly, even raising my fist in threat.Their sudden laughter and knowing looks followed. "For the WIFE!" they emphasized.I looked at the screen, unable to decide on the top three options I had searched for, prompting more laughter from them."Walter asked if I planned to have our wedding night as soon as she comes back or to celebrate our famous monthsaries as a couple," I replied without hesitation.Their jaws dropped at my blun
Reborn Heiress: Taming My Celebrity Husband Chapter 40: She who never betrays
Raine's POVI noticed that Kai seemed a bit concerned about something. When he spoke those words, I felt a twinge of happiness. I was really hoping that he would open up to me and trust me."What did you mean by that? Are you keeping something from me?" I asked. He closed his eyes and forced a smile."What if I am, and what if it's something shocking or unacceptable to you? What would you do?" he responded.I turned around and leaned against the porch. I knew he wanted me to be honest, and I wanted to build a closer connection with him too.I've learned a lot from my past experiences, and I'm ready to accept any shocking truths at this point. He sighed."I'll talk to you when you come back. This is an important matter, and it's better to discuss it in person. For now, take care of everything, and I'll wait for your return." I simply nodded, but I also left him a word to let him know that he can trust me."I will alway

Raine's POVAs he strolled with his wife and some security personnel, I greeted them with a wave and a smile. "Uncle Gustavo! I'm glad we ran into each other. Someone has been very rude to me," I mentioned.The woman behind me turned pale upon hearing me address him as an uncle. As I approached them, we shook hands and she looked me up and down, smiling."My goodness, you look refined and like a real businesswoman now. You don't seem as stressed as before. You've finally excelled in business!" I chuckled softly."Hello, auntie. You look as gorgeous as ever. By the way, is she your cousin?" I inquired. She glanced at the woman behind me, nodded, and appeared puzzled. I took her arm and calmly explained what she had done. She sighed."I apologize for my cousin's behavior," she says, acknowledging the need for a different approach."Let's discuss this over snacks. I have an important matter to discuss with uncle Gustavo. Can we

Raine's POVAfter realizing who I am, they appeared shocked and turned pale. Placing the folder behind me, I directed my attention to the mayor and the manager."Who wants to explain this, hmm? If I'm seen as a money-grabbing businessman, then why did I receive an email last week about this issue that I apparently ignored?" I said.The manager looked at me, seemingly ready to fabricate lies. "Chairwoman, this isn't what it seems! We've been understaffed and busy for months. That's why the workers who should have been dealing with the waste ended up working in the factory," he defended.I gave him a disapproving look. "That's the most pathetic excuse I've ever heard. If you think I'm like other business owners who ignore such matters, you're mistaken. I never overlook issues like this, especially when human lives are at stake. Your feeble excuses won't deceive me, Owen. Not to someone like me!"I look to the mayor. "You will face th

Kai's POVI slowly awaken, sensing someone's gaze on me. It feels like I'm being watched. Suddenly, I feel a touch on my cheek and instinctively grab the person's wrist, pulling her closer."Who the heck... RAINE?!" I exclaimed, refusing to release her wrist. Is this some kind of morning dream?!She giggled and playfully flicked my forehead. "I'm sorry for waking you up so early. You just look so peaceful when you sleep."I pulled her closer and kissed her without hesitation, wrapping my arms around her and feeling her warmth. Our passionate kiss deepened as I placed my hand on her neck.The way she responded assured me that this wasn't just a selfish dream. We both caught our breath after that intense kiss."Welcome home, Raine," I whispered, captivated by the glow in her eyes and the smile on her lips.My cousins were right. I was feeling lovesick at that time, which made me restless and irritable. When Raine whispe

Raine's POVI think Demi sent someone to watch our backs. If she thinks that I’m stupid, I won’t suspect her. She’s wrong. There’s no way that I’ll let her do as she wishes.I’ll show her who I am as well. "It means that she’s aware that Emma was your stalker," I replied.I might be checking my emails, but part of my eye was staring at this woman. Demi laugh. "Your keen senses will only bring you trouble, Missy," she says.I gave my phone to my husband. I didn’t lock it yet. "Here," I stated."Can I check it out?" he asks. I nodded."No problem. You’ll only see your nude pictures there," I tease.His cheeks turn red. He really checks my gallery. I laugh. "Honey, those are for my eyes only. There’s no way I’ll take one.

Kai's POVI just took a four-hour nap and asked George to drive us home at exactly four in the morning. I just arrived, and I can’t help but watch my wife as she sleeps cutely."I got in here ten minutes ago. I really want to see you, so... here I am," I replied. She rolled her eyes and pinched my cheeks."Welcome home, Kai…" she says, smiling widely."I’m home, honey," I replied.She grabbed my wrist and pulled me up. I lost my balance and landed on her. I was about to roll over when she wraps her hands and legs around me."You are better than a bolster or a pillow," she says. She even sniffs me like a puppy.I rolled over and am now on top. I pat her butte and unwrap her legs and arms around me. "Go to sleep. I’ll make us something for breakfast. I’ll wake you up later," she says.

Raine's POVI know where he's coming from. We both remember my health history, and he’s afraid that I'll have the same illness here.I do feel the same way, and that’s the reason why I’ll be using Raine's money to make sure I'll have a longer life and be with Kai until my hair turns gray.I stand up and notice that I don’t have any IVs on me. I guess the nurses notice it and take it off themselves. I went to him and sat beside him. I wrap my quilt around him. I look at his laptop."Look who is overexerting himself."I closed his laptop and put it back in his bag. I look at my husband’s sleeping face. I chuckled. "You are indeed a celebrity, my love. You're too beautiful for me," I murmur.I raise my hand and touch his hair. He's pouting a little when he is sleeping soundly. I guess he stayed too late last night, and he just got his proper sleep.I better speak with the nurses. I was about

Kai's POVI was running down the hallway after the nurse told me which room it was. Macey told me that Raine was admitted to the hospital, and it horrified me.I opened the door and looked at the bed. "Raine! Are you okay?!" I ask. I held her hand and noticed how pale she was. She smiled."Don't worry. I'm fine. They said it’s just stress and fatigue. I'm also having a hard time with my sleeping habits," she reported.I look at Macey. She nods and seems to agree with what her boss says. I hope that they’re not lying to me."You need to take a breath. I will take care of the things you need to know for next week. I have no appointments or photoshoots for that week. You must rest properly, understand?" I remarked. She laughed but nodded. I’m glad she didn’t argue with my suggestion.A nurse came in and checked her vital signs. "Nurse, I want to suggest an overall check-up for my wife. I have to make sure that she’s not ill or whatever it is," I said.She nods and looks away. I know she

Raine's POVI gasped and got up in bed. I groan when everything turns black. This is a consequence of waking up in the middle of the night. I look at the man beside me."Ugh. What the heck? I dozed off completely!" I whimper. I heard my husband moan.He opens his eyes and looks at me with such sexy glances. "I apologize if I ended up sleeping last night. I was just tired and stressed from all the reports that I received from the technical team," I explained.Kai raised his hand and caressed my cheek. "It's okay, love. We still have so many nights and days to make love with one another," he says. That made me blush.How inconsiderate I was! "I will make it up for you tonight, I promise, my love," I whispered. He shook his head and smiled."Just take the rest that you deserve. You are my partner, not my sexual pet. Hugging and kissing you will be enough for me, Raine," he whispered. That melts my heart.I knew from the very start that my husband was considerate and loving. "Let's have a

"Answer her. Don’t worry about me. Put it in the speakerphone. I want to hear her voice," Raine says. I nodded and followed her instructions. I swipe the answer button and wait for 3 seconds."Hello? I thought you had died already," I stated.All we heard was her wicked laughter. I showed this woman what kind of hatred my parallel self had for her. "Why? Do you really think I died with your dad? Oh, please," he stated. My jaw clenched.My dad and mother died together because they got back together after my dad divorced Demi, my evil stepmother.They only got married for three years, but those years were nothing but hell for me. I’m just glad that my cousin’s dad wakes my father from his stupid slumber. He finally saw Demi’s true colors."I wish you were. You deserve to die early, but I guess the

Raine's POVI saw how confused Kai was. I laugh. I just want to tease him but there’s another meaning for it."I love you so much that I can sacrifice any luck in my life in order to love you in every dimension," he replied.I was surprised by what he said. He said those words with a straightforward expression on his face.He cupped my face and lifted it up a little. He gives me a sweet kiss. "I will always find you, no matter where you are, Raine. No matter what surname you’ll be using, I promise you that," Kai added.My heart sank because of joy. I can’t believe he answered my question flawlessly. I smiled. I wrap my hands around his neck. I softly brush his nape, where the end of his hair lies.I kissed him several times until he claimed it was a torrid one. I moan and respond to his kiss wildly. I love him and that is an inevitable truth.No matter where we are, I’ll only love a single man. That’s Kai Montefalcon. We both laughed because of our cheesiness after that long kiss. We

Macey says that a woman is the one who sent his dad to kill my parents.She also gives me a clue. Her dad saw a tattoo on the woman’s right boob. He says that she’s wearing a bra that exposes her boobs and when she bends over while giving the payment to Macey’s dad, he sees a certain tattoo.I suddenly remember that Kai in our world had a stepmother who caused his downfall as well. "What kind of scary truth is that?" Kai says. I tap my right side, telling him to take a seat beside me. He was confused but followed my order."Remember your evil stepmother, Demi? She has a tattoo on her right boob, am I correct? What kind of tattoo is that again?"His face turned sour when he heard Demi’s name. His jaw clenched. My husband really hates her. "Why did you remember her? I was relieved she’s not around in this world."I sighed and decided to tell him what Macey told me. "She said t

He burst into laughter.I glared at my cousin and he cleared his throat, stopping himself from laughing. Damn! "You're not in love yet and that’s the reason why you’re clueless about these feelings. I’ll laugh at you when you do. I’ll make sure of that," I remarked.His eyes dilated and he suddenly stood up from sitting on the couch. Wait a second! He is staring behind me.
