He sat down near me and I rested my head on his shoulders.
"You'll be alright, I promise." He encouraged but I wasn't buying any of that.
"Alright?" I asked offended. "I'm definitely not alright."
"You'll be alright."
I smiled at him and he squeezed my hands gently. "You're beautiful." He commented.
I frowned. "No one would hear us if we're silent." I said.
"So what do you suggest I do? Play music on a dead phone?" He asked, a little bit angry.
"I'm sorry, I'm just worried." I answered.

She asked, returning the smile."I'm obviously doing great, so what do you know about Lisa?" I asked without thinking of my question. Of course, she would know a lot about her cousin."Lisa's my cousin, she's a nice lady and very outspoken." She answered."She does have a boyfriend, right?" I asked."Aren't you her boyfriend?" She asked back, confused."I mean, huh, what I actually meant was that, huh, is she cheating on me?" I asked, sluttering.

Lisa's POVI loved him but that didn't mean I would just say yes. I couldn't even say anything, I was certainly confused."I'm not an object." I slowly reminded him.He frowned and stared at me. "I didn't call you an object."I scoffed, I couldn't just believe that he treated me like trash, I loved him so much but it wasn't acceptable that he did this to me. "You got angry yesterday and sent me out of your house, you've almost ruined my life, you suspended me from work." I said."I didn't, I did all these so that our enemies will think we're not talking with each other, they'll leave us alone, I've booked tickets for us to travel to Canada as soon as you marry me tomorrow." He said."Marry you tomorrow?" I asked, shocked. He already knew I would say yes."Yes, I want us to move to Canada." He answered standing up."I'm really confused, you've booked a flight ticket already?" I asked.

She asked in a low-piqued voice.I drew a shaky breath. "It does, I don't want to be in a marriage where my husband ends up taking care of my family." I answered and she laughed.

I expected Lisa to be anxious but she wasn't even at the venue, it was already almost time for the wedding.I managed to smile at the priest, my cheeks hurt from forcing an excited face. I gave specific invites, I only invited Amanda and she probably brought James along because he was also there.He walked towards me and I looked at him. "Are you waiting for your bride?" He asked."It's none of your business." I answered.
Ruthless Billionaire Chapter Twenty-Five
Lisa's POVI winced at the white light that singed into my pupils as I woke up. I clamped my eyes shut, turning my head to the other side as I heard voices. "Boss, she's awake." I heard a male voice.My throat was rough and sour as air scratched it's dry walls like sandpaper on a wood. A gun cocked and I stiffened in fear."My love." I said and stared at the daring eyes that looked at me. "James!" I exclaimed, shocked.He scrunched up on his face, his eyes darting towards me as he smiled. "Were you actually expecting to marry Alex?" He asked."You bastard!""You look so dejected, poor Alex must be so worried, he doesn't know that you've been kidnapped." He said.My lips quirked as a brief, distasteful laugh made me shudder. I wanted to punch him but I realized my hands were tied."You're a psycho." I muttered with a groan as he chuckled."You're a psycho." He mimicked, sarcastically."Just let me go and be with th

THREE YEARS LATERLisa's POVThe house was dark when I walked in and I wondered what was going on. I couldn't even think straight because of my pregnancy. My husband would call it pregnancy hormones but this was different.My heart skipped a beat as soon as the light was switched on and I found Alex staring at me seductively with a cake on his hand. "Happy birthday, wifey." He muttered.My birthday? Wait, how could I forget my birthday. "Believe me, I didn't even know today's my birthday." I said as he placed the cake on the table."Pregnancy hormones!" He mocked jokingly."So what did the doctor say?" I inquired.He grinned in reply. "He said you're close to giving birth." He answered and walked towards me.He removed my clothes and I could feel my body shivering with fear. "What about the baby?" I asked as he also undressed."This is the best birthday gift ever." He answered with a smirk.I closed my eyes as my naked body touched him, arching my

Alex's POVLisa was my girlfriend and we had planned to get married before I got attacked in the restroom of that restaurant by Kim's men.The memories came back to me easily and I could recall everything that happened.I jumped into the pool to save her and found the engagement ring on her body. I held her and brought her out of the pool.I waited for a second to catch my breath before looking at her. I checked her breath to check if she was breathing. She wasn't, I felt my heart beat increase rapidly.Gently, I tilted her head back and used one hand to hold her chin and lift it up, I kept her mouth open using my thumb.I placed my other hand on her forehead and pinched her nose with my index finger and thumb.I silently hoped it worked so we could be together again. I didn't want to lose her, I wanted her to live a normal life with me.Taking a normal breath, I covered and sealed her open mouth with mine, and blew into her mouth for ab

James's POVDaniel stopped as soon as we climbed out of the tunnel. It was not an easy way of escaping jail but I was still excited because I escaped. I could now revenge and make Lisa and Alex pay for their sins."You're excited, huh?" Daniel asked as we walked into the forest."I'm really excited because I know that I'm now free and I don't have to do anything other than killing my enemies." I answered.He stopped by a stream and drank water. "Heard that it makes the body stronger and bigger."I let out a loud laugh. "I'm sure you know that you're totally wrong. Drinking untreated water such as bore water, river water or spring water can lead to illnesses such as gastroenteritis and diarrhoea."

Lisa's POVThe stars were bright and I was already ready for the party in my pink gown with different colour stripes which made me look elegant. Alex had just left the room and I was already feeling sober.I just couldn't wait for him to recall the times we spent together and had fun. I couldn't wait for him to remember that he wanted to marry me before he lost his memory and totally forgot me.My heart was hurt and I was also hurt, I wondered why I couldn't do anything to make him remember that I was his wife. Why couldn't I do something that would make him recall our love? I loved him so much and losing him was not an option.I couldn't do without him even though I tried to pretend that we were just friends. Tears filled my eyes as I remembered the fantastic and funny moments we shared even though it was short, it was fun and exciting to me.The door opened and Eliza walked in with a cool smile. We didn't really talk earlier because the guys were getting

Alex's POVThe door flung open and Oliver walked in. "Where's my ring?" I asked him quickly and he threw it at me."How did you know it was with me?""Your curiosity exposed you." I answered with a smile.He chuckled. "Amanda is really crazy, she thought I was going to propose to her."I smiled at him and scratched my cheeks. "I bought the ring as a gift for Lisa even though she's engaged."He frowned and slanted me a look. "Engaged?""Yeah, I saw a ring on her finger but she didn't tell me anything about her love life. Is she secretive?" I asked him.Oliver let out a slight chuckle with a grin. "She's not secretive, you'll find out everything soon." He answered happily.I blinked and narrowed my eyes at him. "Really?" I asked her, surprised. "I don't think I even know her, I'm not sure how I feel right now but I'm in love with Lisa and I can't help it."He frowned and sat on my bed. "You're really amazing, Lisa deserves someone like y

Lisa's POVI looked at him, wondering if I should tell you the truth. "I can't tell you. That's for you to find out on your own."He touched his head and sighed. "I don't know, I get these weird images and there's always a lady there. I'm confused."I knew I was the lady but I couldn't do anything, I couldn't keep on hurting myself."You'll figure it out soon." I reassured him with a casual smile.He looked at my hands and pointed to my ring. "That ring! Are you engaged."Tears tickled in my eyes and I nodded. "Yeah, I was supposed to get married before an unfortunate thing happened to me." I explained, trying to hold the tears that wanted to come out of my eyes.He smiled and touched my cheeks. I wondered why he couldn't recall giving me the ring. He was the one who slid the ring through my finger and proposed to me but he couldn't remember."Amanda invited me for a party this evening, will you like to come?" He asked, politely."When did she invite

Lisa's POVWe walked into the cafeteria and occupied a seat at the back. Amanda irritated me with her lousy and naughty attitude."What will you like to have, sir?" The waiter asked Alex as he came to us.Alex looked at Amanda before looking at me. "Lisa, what do you think I should eat?" He asked."I don't know." I answered."You should tell me, I'm interested in whatever you eat." He told me."Don't you care for my opinion?" Amanda asked and touched his cheeks.I almost stood up to slap her, "I don't care." Alex answered bluntly and I chuckled.He was never interested in Alex, I believed that the both of us were soulmates. It was definitely true, we were both connected in a way.I squeezed his hands gently and he looked at me. "You should try Cobb salad.""What's that?" He asked."I'll explain it to you soon," I turned to face the water. "Bring two plates of cobb salad.""Make it three." Amanda said and eyed me.I laughed. "Whatever." I

Lisa's POVI quickly woke up the next morning and found Oliver staring at me. I didn't even realize that I didn't sleep in the guest room. "You should have had a headache by now, I didn't want to wake you up in the night, I had to sleep on the other sofa too." He said.I smiled with a nod. He was definitely right, I felt a sharp pain at the back of my head. I slept late thinking about things to help bring back Alex's memory. "I'm worried about Alex." I admitted as I yawned.He stared at the ground for a few seconds before turning up to look at me. "I don't know what to do right now. I'm actually fed up with everything, he doesn't even seem to know you.""True love will definitely bring back his memories."Oliver laughed and quickly stopped laughing when he realized the frown on my face. "This is definitely not the time to laugh. I'm trying to be positive here cause I'm seriously losing my mind.""We have to follow the doctor's advice, telling him anything right now
Ruthless Billionaire Chapter Thirty-Eight
Alex's POVI walked into the house with Oliver and found Lisa on the sofa. It was surprising but I never asked them for a maid. I was even totally pissed off when I walked in and found her sitting down on the sofa comfortably."Are you dating her?" I was forced to ask."No, I'm not." He answered with a frown.I chuckled. "It's obvious that you're dating her because she's not behaving like a maid.""Because she's not a ....." He paused and stared at me. "Just leave her alone, don't make her angry." He added.I chuckled. "This is also my house and I won't tolerate any bad habits."My mom climbed down from the stairs and hugged me. "I've missed you my son and believe me, Lisa missed you too." She said and I felt dizzy.The name 'Lisa' seemed to affect me, I caught Oliver nudging her with an elbow.I held my head in agony."Why will Lisa miss me?" I asked loudly waiting for answers.Lisa stood up and walked towards me. It was obvious that she was crying. "Sh
