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

Alexander's POV One look allowed me to figure out that Millie's day did not go well. When I came back home, she was sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee that was probably cold for hours. " How was your interview?" I asked, knowing well it was not the best question right now. " Great," Millie mumbled, without looking at me. Her gloomy expression did not change a bit. " So bad, huh?" I asked again, sitting in front of her. I was not helping much, but I could not let her sit all alone. Millie finally raised her eyes on me. " Am I that bad?" She gave me a questioning look. I was not sure what to say at this moment. I do my best to show empathy, but consoling people is not my thing. " It was only the first try. You cannot give up after the first attempt. I am sure you will find the right work in no time." " You think so? Because I am not so sure about that," Millie took a sip of her coffee and scrunched her nose. " Do you want the fresh one?" I aske

Aleksander's POV Mark Green looked at me stunned, struggling to breathe, but I had no mercy for this man at all. He and Millie's family showed zero mercy to the woman who would soon be my wife. This thought was still spinning in my mind, but now I had to focus on the problem. " Is there a problem?" I asked innocently, at the same time giving him a cold stare. " Well, in fact, there is. Miss Brown is no longer working for the company." He said, fixing his tie, which seemed to be choking him. " Well, that complicates everything," I murmured, watching him sweat. It looked like they were indeed desperate to make a deal with us, and I was keen on using it to squeeze him like a lemon. Visualising Millie, who was sitting on the bench, completely devastated, made this much easier for me. " Is there nothing else we can do to prove trustworthy?" Green was stubborn, but so was I. " You see, I would love to trust you just like that, but is it how the businessmen act?" My tone was calm but

Millie's POV I was preparing the dinner when my phone rang. Since my last interview was such a disaster, I was hoping for another chance to prove myself and finally get a job. My excitement died after one glance at the screen. My whole body went numb when I saw my father's name on the screen. What the hell did he want? My fingers were trembling, making me struggle to accept the call. " Hello," I mumbled in a weak voice. " Millie, I am so glad you picked up," I heard on the other side. " And why is that?" I asked, narrowing my brows. " Well, that is not something I would like to discuss over the phone. Can we meet?" My father said with hesitation but also hope in his voice. " Why do you want to meet?" I asked, wondering if there was anything else they could want from me. No, they took everything. There was no reason why they would need to see me again. " Do you always have to be so stubborn? Just meet me, and I promise you won't regret it." My father said,

Aleksander's POVI watched Adam sit in his chair, pressing his palms against his temples. In the meantime, I sent a message to John, letting him know where to find me. Moments later, my friend entered the office, with Gabrielle following him closely. " Should I ask who those people are?" Adam looked at me questioningly, so I introduced my companions to him. He waved his hand dismissively and focused back on me. " So you got married? And your wife is now a suspect in the case?"I confirmed his words with a slight nod, and Adam continued. " And you are telling me that she is innocent?" Another nod. " This woman tried to kill her sister, pushing her down the stairs. I have witnesses who confirmed that. I had blood stain on the floor. "I heard Gabrielle and John gasping in unison. This has to be a shock for them as well. " My wife is innocent. I am sure her family stands behind that. It would not be the first time, " I said, running my hand through my hair. " Millie wouldn't do it. Y

Aleksander's POVI was on cloud nine. I was in love, and the woman I chose loved me back. My body and mind were buzzing with excitement, and I could not find myself a place in the apartment that seemed so small right now. Since there was nothing better to do, I grabbed my back and headed to the gym. I had to release some steam as I felt my body could explode from the happiness. There was only one thing bothering me. I had to tell Millie the truth about who I was. If we were to build our future together, I could not keep her in the dark anymore. I hoped she would understand why I kept my identity secret. When she would come back from a party, I would take her for dinner at La Rosa, the restaurant my mother mentioned a while ago. Then, I would confess everything. My body was trembling from excitement and nervousness at the same time.I spent a few hours at the gym before heading home. There was no message from Millie, which was a good sign. Maybe her family understood their mistakes?

Millie's POV I felt like I was in a dream, watching Sandra falling down the stairs, almost as if it was replayed in slow motion. My eyes were wide open in shock while my brain tried to process what happened a moment ago. Sandra was right; I should have stayed away from them. Coming here was a bad idea, but even in my worst nightmare, I could not expect such a turn of events. " Sandra!!!" Deborah's deafening scream brought me back to reality. She was running through the hall with her eyes fixed on her daughter. I still could not make a move, frozen in place. Everything seemed surreal." Baby, wake up. Say something." Deborah fell to her knees next to unconscious Sandra. Mark and my father joined her seconds later. None of them looked in my direction, but I was sure that would change soon. " Sandra, my baby, please wake up," Deborah's voice reached my ears. It was filled with concern. My step-sister moved on the floor and let out a painful groan. I guessed she tried to say somethi

Third-party POVMy father and Mark closed themselves in the office an hour ago. I could feel something was wrong, but none of them was willing to share more details—not that I cared. It was my birthday, and I had to focus on the plan I had worked on for the last few days. Their problems were irrelevant to me right now. " Honey, you look stunning, " my mother said, entering the living room. " You too, Mom," I replied, glancing at her. My mother was always an attractive woman. Even her age did not ruin her figure, and her skin was still smooth like silk, with no trace of wrinkles. Of course, it was easy to take care of herself now when she had all my stepfather's money to use. " I can't believe you are already four months pregnant. Good genes run in our family."I smiled gently at those words and adjusted my tight silver dress, ensuring my little surprise remained well hidden and intact. If everything goes according to plan, this tiny thing will play a crucial role this evening. " W

Millie's POV " Is this really for me?" I asked Alex in disbelief. It was a lazy Saturday morning, and we were still in bed when he placed a small box on the sheet. " Yea...," he replied absent-mindedly, too busy playing with my hair. " It is stunning," I squealed, opening the box and revealing the beautiful brooch. It had a deep red stone in the centre surrounded by a dozen smaller stones. Between them, delicate golden leaves were visible. " I can not accept it," I said, closing the box with a heavy heart. " Why?" Alex looked at me, shocked. " Because you should not spend money on such things." It was obvious that this piece of jewellery cost a fortune. Even with the money from the project, I would never allow myself to buy something so extravagant. " You should not bother yourself." Alex glanced at me, and I noticed a flash of embarrassment. " Those stones are not real. Maybe one day I will buy you the real one, but those are fake." " You know I don't need that," I said, openi

Alexander's POV " You can't be serious," John gave me a doubtful look. " No one is that dumb." " Are you sure about that?" I asked, raising my brow. Then I turned the screen of my laptop and showed him the video Brian sent me not long ago. John sat on the chair when he noticed Green's smiley face. " I take it back," my friend mumbled, and I could not help but giggle upon seeing his face. " Any idea why would he do this?" " I have been thinking about that for a while now," I shrugged my arms and leaned back in my seat. " I guess they want Millie to give up. They tried that from the beginning. That looks like a last, desperate attempt." " Are they aware that the project is almost over? Only the earthquake could destroy it now," John looked at me, trying to process what he had just seen. " I would like to find out what they know and how they will play that. Can you arrange the meeting with Green and Millie's father?" I looked at John and gave him a mischievous grin. My friend under

Millie's POV ***Warning***Sex scene.*** I stretched myself on the bed. Alex kept his word and left me exhausted. My body was sore, but it was all worth the pleasure I felt last night. I should be at work right now, but I could not find the strength to do it. Brian would have to take care of everything alone today. I closed my eyes, replaying the last events in my head. The night was more than passionate. It was wild. Alex carried me princess-style to our bedroom and placed me gently on the bed. His eyes were dark, almost scary, but that only made me want him more. I rubbed his neck while his fingers swiftly moved under my shirt. My skin burned from the contact, and I pulled him closer. Alex's fingers traced my bra, making my nippl*s hard instantly. He circled his thumb around them, teasing them through the thin fabric. A moan escaped my lips. It was filled with pleasure and annoyance at the same time. Alex chuckled, realising how impatient I was, and pulled off my sh

Third POV I could not believe my own eyes. I was standing hidden behind the tree, watching the construction site. My fists were balling; my nails left a painful mark on my skin. How was it even possible? The work was going at full speed and looked like it would be done any day now. Since I could not endure it anymore, I jumped into my car and drove off. The whole plan was falling into pieces. My entire plan that was supposed to be a masterpiece. I took all precautions to ensure Millicent would fail on this task. She was going to face an ultimate disaster. I made sure she would have no materials to start work. I have convinced her father to decline her request for workers. Millicent should be crawling back to ask, begging for help. Which we would gracefully offer her in exchange for her profit share. She would end up penniless and humiliated. And yet, there she was, handling it all perfectly. I could not imagine how she managed to get the material or the building crew. I

Alexander's POV Gabrielle left, and I was still standing outside with a goofy smile. Millie had feelings for me, at least, her friend was thinking that. She could not be wrong, could she? The warm feeling spread inside my chest, but my happiness was short-lived. My phone buzzed, and I saw a notification. It was a text message from Brian. What the hell could he want at this time of day? ' Call me.' Those two words flashed on the screen, and my stomach twisted. I dialled his number. Hopefully, he did not engage himself in another fight in some random bar. " What is it?" I almost barked when he answered his phone. It was really not a good time. Millie was waiting upstairs. We had a serious talk to make. " Sorry, Alex, I did not mean to bother you in the evening." Brian's tone was apologetic, and I felt like a pri*k. He was my friend and could need my help, and I was taking frustration out on him. " It is okay, Brian. Is everything fine?" " Yeah... Well, not exactly. One
