Millie's POV I still could not believe how Alexander convinced me to take his card. After the initial agreement, I changed my mind and tried to return it to him, but he rejected it and called me a deal breaker. He said I could use it to buy my clothes, and it was not a big deal, but I saw it differently. It was too much, way too much. Alexander allowed me to stay at his place and eat his food. I should not use his money. But I was desperate. I could not show myself in any interview, wearing the only clothes I had that were good for a grocery run but not the work hunt. I arrived at the biggest mall in our town. It had various shops that offered a wide range of prices and brands, from designer brands to some more affordable items. In the past, I would probably visit some of my favorite shops, but today, I had to think of a budget since I was not spending my own money. I chose one of the shops on the ground floor that looked promising. Through the windows, I noticed a nice

Alexander's POV I was enjoying my late breakfast when John entered my office without knocking. I would scold him for that, but my mouth was full of scrambled eggs, which I did not prefer to spit all over my desk. Instead, I gave him a look filled with disapproval. " Sorry to bother but I have a manager of one of your shops on the line. He says it is something urgent, " John smiled at me. It did not look like he was sorry at all. " Can't you deal with that? Is it not what I pay you for?" I spoke as soon as I managed to swallow my food. " He only wants to talk to you," John replied, shrugging his arms. " Fine, put him on the line," I hesitantly agreed. God help this guy if that was something trivial. John nodded and left. Seconds later, my phone rang. " Yes," I answered on a speaker since John was already back in my office. I gave him a sign to sit. " Good morning, Mr Foster. It is Ben Clark, store manager from Dress to Impress." I heard on the other line. It was

Millie's POV My anxiety hit the roof when the store manager disappeared behind the door. The girl behind the counter was eyeing me, and her look was very judgmental. Do they really think I stole this card? Unless it was Alex who stole it, and now he pushed me under the bus. I quickly dismissed that thought. Why would he do it after helping me so much? Every passing minute felt like a year. Customers filled the shop, and I felt like they already knew about my crime. What crime? Pull yourself together, girl. After what felt like an eternity, the manager came back, but his expression had changed. He looked apologetic, scared even. Yep, the card was stolen, and I was the main suspect. " I am terribly sorry for keeping you waiting," he finally spoke, taking me by surprise. " It is not a big deal," I managed to answer, instantly cursing my stupidity. No big deal. It was a huge deal. " Thank you for your understanding. I hope you understand I had to make sure ev

Alexander's POV I watched Millie, who was now blinking uncontrolled, stunned by my words. I know I acted too fast, but I did not have much choice, not after the earlier conversation. " I am really disappointed with you, son," my father's tone was cold as ice. " What are you talking about?" I asked, frantically thinking about what could be the reason for his phone call. " I thought we were close as a family, and we could trust each other, but I guess I was wrong," he spoke again without giving me a hint of what could make him so upset. My father's words were true. We were close indeed, as we kept no secrets from each other. Of course, in the past, as a stupid teenager, I tried to be rebellious, but this faze was long gone. Now, I had no doubts, my family would always have my back as I had theirs. " Dad, I really need some clarification here if I am going to deal with your accusations, " I said, slightly offended by his words. I could not think of anything that could

Millie's POV I noticed that Alex was watching me with growing interest. His eyes were sparkling, and I was grateful he could not hear my thoughts. Did I just agree to be his wife? That was insane, but it was done. I do not take my words back. " Well?" Alex asked, and my mind went blank. Well, what? " Sorry?" I asked suprised. " Your conditions," he reminded me politely while I wondered what Gabrielle would say right now. He would scold me for my stupidity, for sure. " Ah, yes, conditions," I mumbled, thinking about any I could come out with. " I would like to keep my last name." Yes, this one was good. If this marriage was going to be a facade, then it was better to do it in case of unavoidable divorce. I glanced at Alex. He looked like he was considering my proposition. " Fine, we can discuss it further if you decide to change your mind," he said slowly. " We will split the living costs evenly. I will find work and contribute to the household, " I said, enc

Alexander's POV I entered my parent's home, expecting the worst, and the atmosphere inside did not disappoint me. They were waiting for me in their spacious salon. My father was standing next to the fireplace. My mother was sitting in a chair, sipping the wine. One glance at her told me more than I needed. She was disappointed. Very disappointed, and I was the reason for this. My father gave me a reassuring nod while I approached the most important woman in my life. " Good evening, Mum," I said, kissing her cheeks. " Sit, Alexander," she replied, and I froze. Gloria Foster was a loving and caring mother who always had time for me whenever I came to her with my problems, no matter how big or small they were. She probably knew me better than I did and always had my back. My mother was like a rock in the sea of problems. But now, she was pissed! I could tell since she used my full name. " Mum, before you say something, it is all misunderstanding," I spoke, taking

I looked at my father utterly shocked by his reaction. What was wrong with him? He was usually very composed, and now all his self-control was gone. " Dad, what is going on here?" I asked, while my mother watched him with an expression similar to mine." How could you do this? Out of all women, you had to choose her?" He looked at me, and to say I was shocked is like to say nothing. " I am trying to understand the reason for this outburst, but I really can't," I replied, running my hand through my hair. This conversation was getting nowhere, but now I had to know why my father acted like this. My mother stood up, and approached her husband, putting her hand on his arm. " Honey, calm down and tell us what is wrong with this girl. You can see that we are both clueless." My father remained silent for a while, and let out a deep breath. " I am sorry," he mumbled sitting back on his chair. My mother left us for a moment and returned with two glasses of whiskey in her hands. She pas

Millie's POV I woke up, feeling refreshed, and filled with newfound energy. This day could be the start of my brighter future since the past weeks were really gloomy. I took a quick shower and helped myself with breakfast. A Bowl of cereal would do since I was too excited to feel hungry. But I had to eat something. Passing out during the interview would look really unprofessional. I had two hours before my first meeting, which I spent on choosing my outfit and putting make-up on. Even if that was absorbing me completely, there was still a tiny room for thinking about my conversation with Alex. I was going to get married to a man I barely knew. The details were not set yet, but it was enough to send shivers down my spine. It was craziness, but did I have much to lose? I pushed those stubborn thoughts aside. There was nothing more important than my meeting right now. I would have to catch a taxi, to be there on time but I did not mind. " Millie, wait," I have heard my

Millie's POV" Sandra?" I asked in utter disbelief. Was this nightmare to end one day? Everything was slowly getting in place; now, I had to face my past again. My knees wobbled, and I sat on the curb. " What do you want?" I muster to ask. " Millie, I need to tell you something, and you need to listen to me, please, " Sandra's voice was the opposite of what I remembered. It sounded the same, but the tone was completely different. " How did you get my number?" My voice was ice-cold. Sandra and Deborah should be locked in the cells. I could not imagine what my stepsister did to make this call. I saw the lights in a distance, and relief washed over me. Alex was close, and I did not have to face it alone. He stopped the car, and I mustered to get back on my feet. When I sat in my seat, my husband looked at me with concern, but I just shook my head and put the call on a speaker. " Does it matter right now? I have something important to tell you, so please listen to me," Sandra pleade

Third-party POV " So, how is it going to be?" I glanced at the woman before me. Mary Louise, or Fat Mary, as I liked to call her, was a strange persona, but she acted like a queen here in jail, constantly bragging about her connections in the outside world. I found an excellent opportunity to call her out on her bluffs. Fat Mary laughed as if I told her an amusing joke. I leaned back on my chair, waiting for her laughter to die down. I watched her show with a cool indifference. " You are here for a few months, and you act like you own the place," Mary looked at me with her brows knitted. " You even dared to ask me to meet you." "A couple of times, if my memory serves me right," I replied, unfazed by her acting. " My people told me you had an offer," Fat Mary crossed her arms on her chest, and I almost chuckled upon hearing how he put an accent on ' my people.' " They were right," I said calmly. " So, I am here. What do you bring to the table?" I took a deep brea

Millie's POVI stretched myself on the bed and glanced at Alex, who was still peacefully sleeping. It has been two weeks since we renewed our vows, and my life looked like a dream. Firstly, my husband convinced me to change our apartment to something more suitable for a family. " Parker is growing; soon, he will need more space," he pleaded, arguing, and I could not disagree with him. " But I love this place. Here, I can be myself, Millie, not the wife of big, scary tycoon Alexander Foster," I replied, wrapping my arms around him and kissing his neck. " And I thought you liked being married to me," Alex pouted, and I giggled, looking at him. " You know what I mean. Life was easier back then when you were, well... you." " I am... still me, but this man has to take care of his family," Alex mocked me, pointing to his chest. " I am no longer an old teenager, hiding here to experience some normal life away from my family surname." " I get it," I exhaled, hanging my head low. I unde

Third-party POVMy eyes widened, and my jaw clenched as I looked at the newspaper in my hand. The massive title on the first page felt like a stab as I read it repeatedly. "The heir of the biggest company is out of the market." The bright, red letters looked almost as if they were on fire.I have found the page where the article continued. It was filled with smaller photos, and my rage grew as I looked at them, trying to follow the text. " Alexander Foster, heir of the Foster Inc., finally found happiness. Last week, he married a young woman, and the wedding became an event of the year. The ceremony was an official celebration as the couple married almost a year earlier and greeted their first child a few months ago. The wealthiest people in town were invited to the party, which lasted the whole night. Everyone who means something in the business world congratulated the newlyweds." In the rest of the article, some guests were mentioned by their names; indeed, it was the cream of so

Millie's POV I touched the delicate flowers placed almost everywhere, filling the air with its intoxicating scent. I was thinking about the last four months. Handling the newborn baby and planning the wedding caused a lot of chaos in my life. Luckily, Gloria, Alex's mother, offered to take charge of the wedding, and I was entirely grateful for that. I had nothing to worry about, knowing she had an excellent taste. In her capable hands, this wedding would be nothing but perfect. And I was not wrong as I glanced at all the details she had carefully chosen. If Gloria had ever started the wedding planning business, I am sure she would have been successful. I smiled to myself. All of that was crazy if anyone would ask me. I loved Alex, and we were already married, but I could not refuse his wish. Even if that meant being at the centre of attention. Our wedding would be filled with people I had never seen before, but as long as Alex was by my side, I had nothing to worry about.

Alexander's POVI looked at my wife and bit my lips when she squeezed my hand with full force. The labour lasted for the last couple of hours, and she was already exhausted, and there was no chance for all of that to be over soon. Nurses and midwives were coming and going while my brave Millie fought with contractions. All I could do was to be with her and support her the best I could, even if that meant enduring her cursing and insults. " It is all your fault," Millie hissed through her teeth, and her face twisted in pain—another contraction. Her forehead was covered in sweat, and her hospital gown was permanently stuck to her body. I wish I could take the pain away, but that was impossible, so let her take all the frustration on me. Like any good husband should. " I hate you. Why you couldn't be more careful?" Millie spoke again, but I was unfazed by her words. She was in a lot of pain that did not want to go away. " I will not let you get close to me again."" I know," I replied,

Millie's POV." Can you stop doing that?" I asked Gabrielle, who glanced at me confused. " Doing what?" " If you keep crumpling your dress like that, you will look like cotton candy after the expiry date. Is that how you want to look at your wedding?" I pointed to her hands, which were squeezing the delicate fabric. Gabriell immediately released her dress, but she still had no idea what to do with her hands. " I am sorry, I am just nervous." " I haven't noticed," I replied, giggling. Gabi was pacing around the room for the last twenty minutes, and it took much of my strength to stop her from biting her perfectly manicured nails. " What if he changed his mind and won't show up?" My friend glanced at me, her eyes full of panic. " He will show up. If not for you, then to check if all that money he put in this wedding was well spent, " I joked, but Gabi only raised her brow. " That is not funny," she said slowly. " Well, it was pretty funny, actually. And look, you stopped pacing.

Millie's POV Two months later " Do you think I am crazy? Do you think I am desperate?" Gabi offered me a concerned look. We were standing near the restaurant while Alex and Brian went inside. I knew my friend wanted to tell me something, so I asked for privacy. When they disappeared, she dropped the bomb. Brian proposed to her, and Gabi accepted. " Why would I think you are desperate?" I asked, sincerely surprised. " We have known each other for only a couple of months." Gabrielle lowered her head. " Maybe it is too fast." " Gabi, I am the last person to speak about someone else's desperate moves," I laughed. " I am more than happy for you. Brian is a great man, and for the last few months, he has proved that you are the most important woman to him." Gabrielle glanced at me, her face lit. " Thank you," she whispered. " Enjoy your life. You deserve it. And now, let's get inside before they send the rescue team to find us," I laughed and took Gabi's hand. "

Alexander's POV My hands were shaking when I kneeled on the floor. " Maybe it is not hers," John said slowly, trying to calm me down, but I knew that this blood belonged to my wife. She got attacked in a place where she should always be safe, and I had no idea who did it and why. But I knew I would make them pay for it. But now I have to find out about my wife. I prayed for her to be safe as I looked around the apartment. My hand baulked as I noticed that someone had touched her stuff. Our photo together disappeared. " Alex," John called my name. I returned to the kitchen, where my friend stood with a piece of paper. " I think someone left it for you to find." " You want your woman back? Prepare money," I read a note, and my rage rose. Someone hurt my wife to get my money? I would give them everything to have her back. " I think we should call the police," John suggested, pointing to my hand.
