Chapter 5: The dominant heiress strikes back

last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Raine's POV

I close the laptop and smirk. Macey arrived after registering our marriage contract. I used my connections and put another date on the paper.

We got married last month and we want to make sure that this situation has a tight lid. I know things will be hard from now on and I’m still walking with thin eyes but I can do this. I will protect Kai while I have the chance.

"This time, I will make sure that you will be happy…"

Time passes until I decide to go home at four in the afternoon and Macey is busy tailing Emma and making sure that she won’t try to reach out to my husband.

I told her that because I knew Emma would act desperately. Her next target will be me. At the lobby, I wasn’t surprised when press people ran towards me. The security team surrounded me.

“Good afternoon, Ms. El Greco. Is it true that you are married to Kai Montefalcon?” one of the reporters asks

I smiled and raised my finger. My index finger pointed to the wedding and engagement rings that we will be using as props in this game.

“Yes, I’m Mrs. Montefalcon. You heard what my husband says and we tried to keep it secret because he’s been an idol and beloved celebrity by everyone. But I am asking everyone to support him throughout the end and never base your love on his private life,” I answered.

“Now that he is under your entertainment company, are you not afraid that his career will change and that the fact that you hide your relationship with him will be a factor in his downfall?” one of the reporters says.

I tried to smile and compose my anger deep inside. This reporter is loyal to that psycho woman. It’s time to strike back at Emma Harper.

“Well, I believe that my husband’s loyal fans will stay with him and love his work as an idol and actor. He’s been devoted to every project that he has."

"I think my company will never be the cause of his downfall because the projects that were put on hold because of his hiatus will continue after two weeks,” I opened up. I look at the other camera and make sure that my acting is flawless.

“I know our relationship will have an effect on his comeback but I will support him along the way. I love how he puts his 100% into everything that he does and I know how hardworking he is. I believe he can show more of his versatility as a celebrity. I know we can do this together.”

She is about to ask again but another reporter asks. She is not on my side but I know their network has never been biased. “Mrs. Montefalcon, what is the best thing that Mr. Kai gave you and why do you fall for him?” she asks.

That was simple and I can answer that with flying colors. “He’s gentle and kind. He helps those in need without telling them or showcasing how compassionate he is. All those foundations that he supported and students that he supported for them to reach their dreams are one of the reasons why I fell for him,” I paused and smiled once again.

“Strangely, I was in trouble and he was there. I meet a normal person but not a celebrity. He's a gentle and loving person but, at the same time, mysteriously challenging. Being with him, I can be true to my feelings and myself.”

“One last question for everyone,” the security team says.

A man asks a question. “Even once, have you ever believed that Mr. Montefalcon is in love with Mrs. Harper and you’re just a scapegoat for that rumor?” he asks.

I knew someone would ask that. I am not surprised at all. I simply laugh and cover my lips with my left hand, showing them my rings.

“NO. My husband and I were also in love. I believe that everyone is just making up stories; besides, it's normal for my husband to treat the people who have helped him all these years."

"He’s an actor and you guys saw how expressive his eyes are, maybe because he’s inspired and very much in love with and loved by me. I am not the scapegoat and what we have is true. I don’t have to prove that further,” I replied, shaking my left hand.

I bow my head a little and look at the security team. They guide me until I get inside my car. I wasn’t surprised when a company driver drove me home today. He leaves the company and I didn’t show him how relieved I was because I finally escaped from the press.

My phone rang, and it was Macey. I answered her. “Come here already. Your husband arrived at a resort and Harper’s was here. I have a bad feeling about it. This resort was owned by Gilbert Harper,” Macey says.

I dropped the call and told the driver where we should go. He drives at full speed. After 15 minutes, we arrived at the resort.

Macey and I get inside and ignore the security. I have a bad feeling about this. I saw my husband and George standing at the beach shore. They’re both surprised to see us.

I walk as fast as I can and grab his wrist. “It looks like the stealer has arrived. I wonder if you’re a dog or maybe this man had chickened out and called his wife,” Gilbert Harper says.

I turned around and glared at him. I saw Emma and her husband behind their child. I noticed the sharp glances she gave to me and I wasn’t surprised at all.

I let go of Kai’s wrist. My brow lifted and I looked at them proudly. For some reason, Gilbert never takes his eyes off me and it was uncomfortable but I tried to ignore his glances. Emma talks.

“Is this how you will repay us for what we did for you? Have you forgotten that we are the reason you reached that fame?!” she screamed. I scoff and roll my eyes.

“Really? As if H.E. didn’t take advantage of the projects and the money that he worked hard for. Don’t fucking start with me. I’m not someone that you guys would mess with,” I utter.

I showed them the power that I have and the confidence that I can finally use because I’ve got the name and the money. Gil steps forward and is about to point his finger at my face when Kai grabs his wrist.

My husband is much taller and more muscular. He only towered over Gil and that expression he made. It stuns me. It’s so fucking fine! His expression is dark and that flare of anger in his eyes makes his eyes blaze.

“I told you. Remember this? I’m untouchable.”

I grab Gil’s collar and push him backwards. I know Kai was surprised at how strong I was. I glared at him. “No one owns Kai Montefalcon more than himself. If you all have questions, and then go to my office, but I assure you, no one will win against me,” I remark thunderously. I pushed him away.

“Tell me, how much do you want?” Emma asks in sarcasm.

    Kai's POV I look at her but for some reason I’m not offended. I look at her expression and I’m enjoying the different emotions she’s showing with every snap of a second. She laughs and in seconds, her expression becomes serious. "Really? Why not? I'm a businessman at heart and mind," she says, using that scary and monotone voice. Emma smirked, and from the glance she gave me, I knew what she meant by that. Damn it! Emma grabs something in her purse and it’s her checkbook. She is ready to write whatever amount Raine will say. “Two billion dollars plus! You, Mrs. Harper, will be my maid for a year. If you can give me that, then Kai Montefalcon will be yours again,” she says in such a blunt and cold tone. I was about to react when I saw that lying gesture she made behind her back. Emma’s expression is priceless. Her eyes widened, her lips were agape, and anger was in her pupils. I almost burst out in laug

I sighed."I want to go home and drink something. I've been stressed lately. You know my address anyway," I replied.I put on my seatbelt again and ignored that grin he made. I think the thin ice that I’ve been walking on will have cracks anytime soon and I’ll fall into cold water in the least amount of time I expected.

    Kai's POVI am standing by the window, awaiting my wife's decision. I recall how I had to calm myself down last night when I was changing her.The sensation of her soft skin on my fingers was overwhelming, but I managed to compose myself. However, just thinking about it now is making me feel hot.I shake my head, trying to banish the image from my mind. I take a look at her phone, ready to listen, but Raine's unexpected message shocks me.“Ahh… not there. Uhn! Wait! I am answering you—ahh!”As her phone hit my feet, I let out a groan. She was making super-erotic sounds to tease Emma, which I found to be bullshit.I crouched down and placed my hands at the back of my neck, biting my lower lip while I rocked myself. For a moment, I wondered how sexy she could be while I rocked her, but I quickly erased that thought and closed my eyes.“Oh, that’s the spot! Sorry, just call later, bye

My thoughts are scattered, and all I can perceive is the comforting warmth and delightful tingling sensations that his touch and kisses evoke in me.I greatly enjoy it. However, my attention is abruptly brought back to reality by the sound of a bell, but Kai quickly silences me by covering my lips.I gaze at him. He smirks and places his finger on his lips, gesturing for me to be quiet. Despite my best efforts to resist, I can't help but be drawn in by his alluring demeanor. My body quivers with pleasure as he teases my nipple with his tongue.Kai’s hand teases the other and pinches it as his teeth softly bite my other nipple. I look at the ceiling and my head feels like it’s getting blank.My instinct as a woman gets over my head. “You’ve got wet,” he whispers in my ears.As his finger touched me, a blush crept up my face, and I insti

    Kai's POVI wasn’t surprised when I heard Emma’s voice. She’s trying to put in the last code that I used. “Did she always do this?” Raine whispers in my ears. I sighed and nodded. I was supposed to open the door when my wife stopped me.“You two, go and hide. I will deal with her myself. Go.”Raine pushes me and George. My manager drags me into a corner where we can hide and witness their fight. Raine opens the door and suddenly jumps to the other side.My eyes widened when we saw that the carpet on the doorway had melted. Emma just threw an acid, as if she knew that Raine would be the one who opened the door! I was about to come out when George stopped me. I can’t believe she would do that!“That was close. You almost ruined my beauty!” Raine says.Emma grabs something again in her bag and it’s another bottle. Raine grabbed her wrist and took the acid bottle

    Raine's POV We've already been on the road for 10 minutes and at first I thought it was just a coincidence. That blue BMW might be dashing but I know it’s us that they’re following. Kai has been overtaking four cars and yet they’re still behind us. I grab my phone and call someone who is probably monitoring us. "Make sure to keep that fucking BMW from us," I stated. Kai was looking at me and I pointed to the road. I want him to look forward instead of looking at me. He did. I drop the call and look at the rearview mirror. I wasn’t surprised when I noticed a car that was chasing us as well. I know that plate number well. They started moving closer to the BMW and I heard gunshots after that. Kai was about to look back when I stopped him. I was right. Emma will act rashly and I’m glad that I’ve taken precautionary measures before things go south. We can’t see the car from behind us. I know my men will turn over those scumbags to the police station. I sighed and leaned my back into t

    Kai's POV I must admit, I have no idea what kind of person I ended up marrying. She's different from the others who were attracted to me because of my looks and popularity. However, there's something about her that feels off. Despite her words over the phone, my wife remains a complete stranger to me. I feel the need to keep a close watch on her to uncover any hidden truths. Raine pushed me slightly and wiped the blood from her lips. Angrily, she demanded, "What was that for?!" I scoffed and glared back at her. "Don't think for a second that I agreed to this just because I needed someone to use against Emma. You're mistaken. Let me make one thing clear, Raine. I didn't become a celebrity for no reason. And I'm not a pushover either," I said, stopping abruptly as Raine covered my mouth with her palm. She glared at me as well. "I don't care if you're bitter, Kai Montefalcon, but I don't want my first experience to be a bitter one. Keep quiet and I'll fulfill my promise. I don't need

    Raine's POVI can tell by his expression that she will go to any lengths to talk to Kai and convince him to return to Harper Entertainment. Kai playfully teases me, asking if I'm afraid of her.I roll my eyes and take the hairdryer from his hand, starting to dry my hair. As I do, I can't help but remember what he did.He embraces me strangely, and I sense his anxiety. It's as if he's worried about something but doesn't want me to know.I believe he was concerned that Emma would continue sending men to harm me. I understand where he's coming from because Kai knows what kind of woman she is.Emma will stop at nothing to win him back. I still don't understand why Kai took his own life. The rumor alone doesn't seem like enough reason for such a drastic action.I think it's necessary for me to investigate his background, especially the secrets he may have kept. I have a feeling that he may have been murdered, and the incident made to look like suicide.What if those rumors were spread to h

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. Na-ah," I said, moving my index finger from left to right."Ahem!" Demi coughs.I look at her and smirk. "Oh, you’re

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. I shake my head and wrap my hands around her."Stay here with me. Let’s grab some brunch outs

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

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

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

    Kai's POVI guess she is indeed planning to cause a stir in our lives. I’m sure my evil stepmother was aware that the child of the couple she killed was my wife, her stepson.I look at Raine. "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

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

I never thought I'd see you as restless as this," George teases. I take off my coat and sigh."Four days was fucking long. How can she feel at ease while I’m missing her so much?" I commented. 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.
