Saved To Be A Substitute A Man Like Alexander
Alexander's POVShe slowly pulled away from the hug, her eyes filled with a mix of surprise and curiosity."Where do you want to take me?" Lilian inquired, her hazel slightly widened at me."It's a surprise," I smiled at her."A surprise?" Her eyebrows raised in confusion. "Well...I'm not used to surprises, but okay,"I hated the fact that she wasn't used to a lot of things. She was so caged with Dustin. He truly made her life a living hell. I wondered if she celebrated her birthday."Lily, did you ever celebrate your birthday when you were with Dustin?" I asked.Her face saddened and she lowered her gaze, "Can we not talk about him?""Yeah," I quickly agreed, feeling guilty about ruining her happy moment. "We won't ever talk about him except when necessary. I'm sorry for bringing him up.""It's okay." She looked at me, her eyes still glistening with tears. "To answer your question. I never celebrated my birthday with Dustin. I never even celebrated Thanksgiving or New Year. He always

Alexander's POV.My heart broke at her words. I knew how hurt she was, but I never thought she would be so determined to not live with anyone again.Damn you, Dustin!"Are you sure about that?" I asked."You know, life can be very unpredictable. I never thought that I would be able to walk again, and neither did I imagine getting the opportunity to watch the sunset. But here I am," She smiled.Her words sort of had this hidden meaning, which gave me a newfound hope."So, that means you may fall in love again!?""Yes," She nodded."So, you would like to fall in love with someone like me." I spouted, and she nodded again. "Why don't you fall in love with me instead?""What did you say?" She asked, a bit distracted by the sun."Nothing. I just said that the sun looks like a moving image behind the water. It's so pretty," I lied, refusing to repeat what I had said before."You're right." She giggled.We stayed silent afterward. But while she had focused on the sunset, I was staring at her

Alexander's POV"What!" Lilian's voice shook. "I don't want to meet her now. I'm not ready.""I know. I don't want her to see you, either. Not yet," I said, stepping beside her.I took hold of her wheelchair handles and wheeled her away from the main restaurant area. As we reached the restrooms, Lilian insisted on staying there. "Are you sure you'll be okay here?" I asked, cupping her face. "Yes. I doubt that she will come here," She replied, glancing around. "But why is she here? I thought you booked the restaurant.""They were more incompetent than I realized," I said bitterly. They should have stopped her at the entrance. Well, I'm never coming back here.""But of all places, why did she come here?" Lillian wondered, her voice laced with worry."She must have seen the photos," I sighed."What photos?" Her eyes widened."A staff member took pictures of us, but your face wasn't visible. They went viral, and it might be too late to take them down," I said, gritting my teeth. "The pr

Alexander's POV"Alexander, Jessica may no longer be with us. But I expected you to keep that vow at least for a long time before running into the arms of another woman!" She added, her voice sharp."It's just been three years..." She reminded me. "That's a short time to move on from someone you claimed to dearly love."Her words stung me. She didn't know half of what I had been through. I understood that she was Jessica's mother and must feel hurt by her daughter's demise, but I held the blame for it."I love Jessica," I muttered, turning to her. "Not a day has passed without me longing for her. I still can't accept that she's gone. So don't talk like I have moved on because I haven't.""Oh really?" Her tone was sarcastic. "What about the woman you were with? You had never been seen with any woman until now. So don't pretend like you haven't moved on."I gasped at her words. They were laced with anger and bitterness."Do you expect me to wallow in sadness for the rest of my life?" I
Last Updated : 2024-11-01Saved To Be A Substitute Invasion Of Privacy
Lillian's POVI let out a huff, feeling frustration boiling inside me as soon as Alexander left. "This was supposed to be a nice night for us, but here we are, sorting out issues!" I gritted my teeth. "It's been a rollercoaster of emotions since yesterday, we deserve some peace."I hadn't felt this irritated in a while. Alexander and I had been through so much these past days. Tonight should have ended on a good note, but those employees had to ruin it. I wondered how he was doing back there. Was he able to convince Jessica's mother to leave?"I hope she's not giving him a hard time," I muttered, feeling a mix of worry and anger. For a moment, I questioned whether my frustration stemmed from the stress we'd been under or the fact that a special moment with Alexander was ruined."Damn it," I sighed, leaning back in my wheelchair.I stayed silent, seething, waiting for Alexander's return. But suddenly, the door creaked open.My gaze snapped in that direction as the door slightly open
Last Updated : 2024-11-02Saved To Be A Substitute A New Partner
Alexander's POV."What?" I exclaimed in shock. "Did she ask you to take another picture of Lillian, or is this just an excuse to avoid accountability.""I'm not trying to avoid accountability," the employee replied, her voice shaky. "She offered me money, and I couldn't resist. She also promised to pay other employees, if I kept quiet about her identity and did the job right." I was stunned. I thought that Mrs. Sinclair had believed my words, but clearly, she hadn't. I couldn't believe she would go to such lengths to uncover Lillian's identity."This is insane," I mouthed, astounded."Why is she so desperate to know who I am?" Lillian asked, her voice laced with confusion. "If she were your mother then I would understand her curiosity, but she's just Jessica's mother. She doesn't have a right to interfere so much in your life."She was right. Yet, Mrs. Sinclair always felt entitled to meddle because she believed I indirectly caused the 'death' of Jessica."Unbelievable," I sighed, fe
Last Updated : 2024-11-02Saved To Be A Substitute Partnership Gone Wrong
Alexander's POV."How can Dustin be a partner of my company?" I spat, wondering if this was a prank."Wait...this must be a joke," I faked a laugh, still in disbelief."Boss, this isn't a joke," Mr Crown said, smiling broadly. "I know that you're shocked by it, but this partnership is real. We are going to gain so much from this."Anger surged through me at his words, and the smile on every one of their faces. It felt like the air conditioner had stopped working, the air growing heated."When did you sign the proposal?" I inquired, fixing my angry gaze on Mr Crown. "Yesterday, sir." Mr. Crown replied."Yesterday!" I exclaimed, incredulous. "When did this company start accepting proposals in such a short time?""Boss, we can explain," Another one of my delegates, Mr. Vincent, said. Rising to his feet, he began, "The proposal was too good to pass up. We couldn't risk losing it." "I'll show it to you," He said, gesturing to the large presentation screen opposite me. He signaled Gwen

Alexander's POV"Conditions?" I asked, narrowing my eyes at him."Why do you look so surprised?" He questioned, his smirk grew more sinister. "Oh, I forgot. You weren't the one who signed the contract. You were busy acting as a caregiver... Poor, poor you."My fists clenched in my pockets. For a moment, a sinking feeling crept into my chest. "I'm sure, that these conditions..." I began, rolling my eyes to keep calm. "...aren't as complicated as you attempt to make them. I don't know why you try so hard to feel important."His jaw tightened at my words, and his smirk vanished."How about calling the one who signed our partnership deal...what's his fucking name...uh...Mr Crown.""He'll be here in a few minutes..." I replied, shooting deadly glares at him.He simply nodded, plastering a pompous smile on his face.My hands clenched in my pocket, and I gritted my teeth. I had never had such a strong and intense urge to kill someone as I did while staring at him. "You're lucky that I didn

Saved To Be A Substitute A New Problem
Lillian's POV."I love you," I whispered against his lips before kissing him deeper.I had forgotten for a second that people were around until the attendant cleared her throat. I broke the kiss and turned to her with an apologetic smile."I'm sorry," I apologized."It's nothing. I'm happy for both of you," she replied with a genuine smile. "So, will you be taking the ring or do you still want to check for more?""No, I love this one," I said, smiling broadly. "It's exactly what I want. It's simple, elegant, and exquisite at the same time. It's my style and what I would be comfortable wearing.""I'm glad that you like it. I also see that it fits, so I guess we are settled," she muttered, extending her hand."Yes, thanks," I sighed, removing the ring and handing it over.She kept it back in the box and packaged it."We also want to purchase wedding rings," Alexander said with a wide smile."That's wonderful," the attendant laughed softly. "Let me keep this aside and show you a few mor

Lillian's POV. "What?" Alexander gasped, grabbing the note from me. "That's not what he told me."He glanced over the note and shook his head."He lied to me.""Are you sure he wasn't the sender?" I asked, fear gripping me."I don't know...I fucking let him inside," Alexander sneered, his voice thick with regret."That doesn't mean anything. Did you catch him looking around, or did he get close to any of your properties?" I asked."No, he didn't," Alexander sighed. "I guess I have been tricked. He might have just given the wrong description to confuse me.""Did you just let him go?" I asked, my heart racing."No, I had him followed. I also have some of his details including his picture, to trace him wherever he runs to," Alexander replied, exhaling sharply."Then I guess we've got nothing to worry about," I said, letting out a sigh.I might have read the most awful words ever, but I wasnt going to let it to ruin our plans. We had given enough time to our problems, it was time to enjo

Lillian's POV"What gift?" I asked, feeling a sudden wave of curiosity.Alexander looked up at me and gasped as if he hadn't meant for me to hear what he said."What is it?" I pressed, searching his face. "You look pale again," I added, reaching for him."Nothing," Alexander stuttered, shaking his head. "It's just a—""Alex, don't hide anything from me," I said, my tone pleading. "We've been having so many issues in our relationship because we've hidden things from each other. Let's not do that again, please..."I watched him swallow a lump in his throat, and lower his gaze."I didn't mean to hide anything from you," He said with a sigh. "It's just that I didn't want to bother you.""You aren't bothering me," I said with a soft smile. I held his face gently and whispered, "You're my husband, and you can share your troubles with me. I'll do the same too."His expression softened at my words."I received an envelope earlier," Alexander revealed."Envelope? You mean the one that was slip
Saved To Be A Substitute Keep A Secret
Alexander's POV. "What did you just say?" I gasped, lifting my head. "A secret ad...admirer?"My mind instantly went to Dustin. I couldn't believe that the bastard refused to relent despite my warning to him, yesterday."Is it Dustin Stone?" I asked the delivery man."Sir, I'm not supposed to reveal the identity of the sender," he replied firmly. "Please sign, so I can leave.""Is the sender Dustin?" I repeated, unrelenting."I don't want to get fired—""How much do you want?" I asked, enticing him. "I'll give you enough to quit this job and live a better life."The delivery man swallowed hard, lowering his gaze for a moment. He seemed to be thinking about my offer."Okay," He agreed with a nod. "Come in," I said, letting him inside. I closed the door behind me and dropped the box on the floor. "Do you know what is inside?" I asked, squinting at the box. "It's a vase," he replied, glancing down at it. "He attached a message to it, stating how beautiful she was and she could put
Saved To Be A Substitute Gift Box
Alexander's POV."What is it?" Lillian asked, snapping me out of my thoughts. "Is it an invitation or something?"I swallowed the lump in my throat and let out a sharp sigh."It's not an invitation," I replied, trying to mask my nervousness. "It's just Martin telling me my partners were upset that I left the party abruptly and didn't return.""Since we weren't opening the door, he decided to write it out," I added, lying smoothly."I guess that must be my fault...I mean, you not returning to the party," Lillian muttered, her tone laced with guilt. "I'm sorry...""Don't apologize, Freckles," I said softly. "You did nothing wrong."I walked over to where our clothes were scattered and grabbed my pants, slipping the envelope and letter into the pocket discreetly, hoping she wouldn't notice."Are you sure it's just about your partners being upset?" Lillian asked, her voice tinged with concern."Yes." I nodded. "It's just that I have to pacify them, which requires some work. But it's noth
Saved To Be A Substitute Strange Message
Alexander's POV."Who could that be?" I frowned, glancing toward the door. "Don't answer it," she whispered, cupping my face and pulling me into a deep kiss. I kissed her back, my hands roaming her body. From her hips to her thighs and then to her curves, I took my time savoring her. My hands slid to her ass, and I teasingly trailed two of my fingers between her cheeks. She trembled beneath me, soft moans spilling from her lips. The knock on the door persisted, but I had no intention of answering it, not without giving her more pleasure first. Slowly, I slid my fingers into her warm cunt, causing her hips to grind against me.She broke the kiss, soft cries escaping her lips at the intrusion. Not wanting whoever was outside to hear her, I silenced her with another kiss, this time deeper and more possessive. My fingers moved inside her, matching the rhythm of her grinding hips. The slick heat around them made me throb with need, and my cock slowly thrust into her, teasing us both.
Saved To Be A Substitute Imperfect Couple
Alexander's POV.I knew at that moment, I had broken through her resolve. Her hands reached for my face, and she kissed me back with the same intensity. I began to wonder if I was taking the right path instead of just having a conversation.I didn't want to act like Dustin who would take advantage of her with every chance he got.I broke the kiss and held her hands on my face."Nothing is going on between Eva and me," I muttered, seizing the opportunity. "Dustin drugged her at the party, so she could help him with his company. I just couldn't leave her in that state."Her expression remained unreadable after my explanation, so I continued."I took to my Mom's house because she was unwilling to pick her up. I'm sorry if it seemed like we were having any interaction," I said with an apologetic tone. "Eva wasn't in her right state of mind.""Also, I forgot about the party, that's why I didn't tell you. Martin reminded me, but I thought you wanted some space, so I didn't call you," I expl
Saved To Be A Substitute Lillian, Please Listen…
Alexander's POV"Why would you do that?" I asked, feeling a surge of worry and frustration."I'm sorry sir," Martin apologized, his tone dripping with guilt. "She was worried about you. She said you weren't answering her calls." I grunted in frustration, "I put my phone on 'do not disturb' for a few hours. I think she called during that time. Damn it!""My apologies again sir. She was persistent and I felt guilty to see her so worried," Martin explained.My heart hammered in my chest, feeling a pang of guilt. I shouldn't have shut her out like that. Maybe she had just wanted to talk or help me calm down. Now, it seemed like I'd ignored her."But...I didn't see her at the party," I said, trailing off as a horrifying realization struck me."Oh no!" Panic surged as I abruptly pulled over at the side of the road."What is it, sir?" Martin asked, nervously. "Did something happen to Mrs Jessica...I mean Lillian.""I think...she saw us," I muttered through my gritted teeth."Saw you and who
Saved To Be A Substitute You Did What?
Alexander's POVI was shocked to see him here. How did he get in? I never added his name to the list.My gaze remained fixed on both of them, but neither noticed me."Should I interfere or just walk away?" I muttered to myself, contemplating.I didn't feel like intervening in anything that involved Eva. I was already enjoying my evening since she left me alone. But, it wouldn't be fair to leave her with this bastard.I knew Dustin was never up to any good, and the way he was dragging her looked so forceful."Dustin!" I yelled, and he stopped for a moment.He looked at me, narrowing his eyes."Why are you always getting in my way?" He sneered. "Just move along. This isn't any of your business.""How is this not my business?" I snapped, walking hastily toward them. "Let her go now!"Before I could reach them, he released her and she almost fell to the floor. I caught her just in time, but that's when I realized she was drunk."Alexander," She whispered, reaching for my face. "My love, y
