THE BILLIONAIRE'S WIFE CHAPTER THIRTEEN
CHAPTER THIRTEEN.That morning, when Adele arrived at her work place, she was met with the surprise of her life. She was introduced to an editor whom she knew personally from England. He was an ex-boyfriend from college.They were in the same department in school, but he was her senior by one year. His name was Henry and he was the first guy she had ever had feelings for. They had dated for a period of one year, before he suddenly called off the relationship after he graduated, because he had to travel back to his home city and a long distance relationship was not something he liked.They had broken up on very bad terms, so they didn't even attempt to talk to each other all morning even though they were working together. She was no longer in love with the man and she was sure about that, but seeing him made her sad.Because they had all worked tediously all morning, their superior suggested they all went out for lunch and they did just that. Henry and Adele were still acting indiffere

CHAPTER FOURTEENOnce again, Adele and Jamal did not utter a word to each other after such an intense talk. They both kept their distances and engrossed themselves in their individual work and even at the dinning, not a word was said.They finally went to bed without talking about the issue. The night was a miserable one for both of them. No one shook from their spots on the bed and they both kept staring at the walls in front of them till their alarms went off.It was six am in the morning and it was time for both of them to wake up and prepare for work, even though they had gotten no sleep at all.Jamal was the first to step down from the bed, while Adele quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be fast asleep. Jamal, who knew she was pretending, walked over to her side of the bed."Adele." He called, but Adele did not bulge. "I know you are awake. I forgot to prepare my outfit for work last night, I need you to help me sort that out by the time I'm done bathing. Please." His reques

CHAPTER FIFTEEN.Days passed and neither Adele nor Jamal addressed the issue they had. Jamal kept late nights as usual and Adele chose to pretend like he did not exist. Their marriage was a catastrophe.It was the weekend and as usual, everyone was at home, relaxing. Jamal on the other hand was in his study room, working as usual. Danielle had even come to visit and she was seated in the living room with Shannelle. Adele made sure to stay on the third floor of the house all day. The last thing she wanted was to go downstairs and meet Shannelle and Danielle who never missed the chance to taunt her.Her strained relationship with her husband had reached their ears and she knew they were waiting for the slightest chance to finish her off.That afternoon, Adele was randomly walking past Jamal’s study room in the corridor when she noticed that her dear husband was not there alone. Instead, He was in the company of Danielle. Initially, Adele thought of just ignoring them both and contin

CHAPTER SIXTEEN.“You are Welcome, Mrs. King.” Kain, the butler greeted as he took Adele’s winter coat.“Thank you very much, Kain.” She responded with a sweet smile before heading for the staircase. All she wanted at that moment was to go into her bedroom and have a long rest. She had had a very hectic day at the office and barely had anything to eat as well.Her plans however, were ruined when she heard the voice of her mother in law calling her name.“Adele!” Her name came through again and she stopped on her tracks and rolled her eyes hard before turning to face the woman who was calling her like she was deaf.“Yes mother. Good afternoon.”“Keep your stinking greeting to yourself!” Aliya retorted bitterly. At that moment, Adele was confused because she had no idea what she had done to make the woman so furious. “How dare you!”“I… I don’t think I understand.”“You published an article today about a very good friend of mine and it was shown in the news. Do you have any idea how muc

CHAPTER SEVENTEEN Adele’s face turned red when she walked into the bedroom and saw Jamal already lying on the bed with just a pair of shorts on, probably waiting for her. She had purposely put on a see-through nightgown which had beneath it, just a lingerie, no bra. With a smile plastered on her face, she seductively walked over to the bed to meet Jamal and the moment she lay on it, he captured her lips in an intense kiss. As he kissed her deeply, he let his fingertips trail down her long, slender throat, to the shelf of her collarbone, and then a little lower to the top swell of her breast. He felt her suck in a gasp of air as he touched the space between her breasts, which was exactly the width of his middle finger.The room was intensely silent. All he could hear was her breath, and his own heartbeat. Gently, he traced the shape of her breast, letting her fingers dip down the front of her dress.She wasn’t wearing a bra. His thumb passed over her nipple, which was stiff, standin

CHAPTER EIGHTEEN.Adele shook on the bed and snapped her eyes open when her very loud alarm sounded. Letting out an exasperated sigh, she picked up her cell phone and quickly turned off the alarm. It was six am in the morning and she needed to wake up and prepare for work. When she turned back to the other side of the bed, she noticed that Jamal was nowhere to be found. She weakly sat upright to scan around the room, thinking he would be sitting around somewhere, but he wasn’t. The room was void of any form of Jamal. “No, he did not!” She whispered as she took off the sheets from her naked body and stepped down from the bed. She winced when she felt the soreness between her thighs and that’s when the memories of last night flooded her mind. She recalled how Jamal ate her in and out. How he made her scream and above all, how he made her cum.That was her first night with a man and he had made it an incredible one for her. He was gentle with her as if he knew she had been a virgin.

CHAPTER NINETEEN.It was already Friday and Adele was excited because Jamal was coming home the next day, which was Saturday. Throughout the week, she had been counting the days, hours, minutes and seconds left for his return and now that it was just a matter of hours before she saw him, she had no idea how to react. However, she was still sad about everything that was going on.Jamal hardly called her and even when she called, she was forwarded to his secretary who seemed to enjoy telling her that her husband was busy and couldn’t talk to her. They had spoken roughly two times that week and she missed him dearly.She hated the fact that she was beginning to get too attracted to him. She hated the fact that she had feelings for him and cared so much about him because she knew it was one sided.One thing she had never understood was why he accepted to marry her when it was evident that he did not like her one bit. That was a question she had always wanted to ask him, but she didn’t ha

CHAPTER TWENTY.Weeks passed and nothing changed between Adele and Jamal. He did not make it up to her like he had promised. They kept having sex like a regular couple and most times, Adele would wake up to an empty bed. He hardly stayed the night after spending the night with her. Adele was heartbroken and devastated. She wanted to tell Grandma all what Jamal was doing to her, but on a second thought, she changed her mind. It was her marital problem and she had to deal with it herself.Since her and Jamal were not on talking terms, she decided to immerse herself in her work to avoid thinking about him all the time. She was so busy with work that she forgot to care for herself. The past week, she had been feeling tired and nauseous most of the time. At first, she thought it was bad food she ate, but as the feeling prolonged, she began to suspect pregnancy. Her and Jamal had been having unprotected sex and she also noticed her period was more than one week late.Without any hesitation

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTEEN.ONE MONTH LATER.“Baby, are you alright?” Jamal asked, concerned when he noticed that Adele was feeling uncomfortable on her seat. They were at Shannelle’s wedding reception. The day had been a very hectic one for both of them as they had to make sure everything was going on smoothly. Adele, who had been Shannelle’s maid of honor, was exhausted and her husband could see it in her eyes.“Yeah, I'm good. Why asked?”“You're really exhausted. The formalities are over, we can go home now.”“No we can’t. Shannelle will feel betrayed.” Adele protested, but Jamal did not listen to her. He quietly rose to his feet and went over to the high table where Shannelle and her husband were seated. He engaged in a short, quiet conversation with them before returning to his seat to meet Adele.“Let's get going.” He instructed as he took her hand. She did not object because she was tired and needed to go home and rest but she did not want to go because she felt that Sha

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTEEN.The morning went smoothly at the office with Adele and her colleagues. Everyone did the work apportioned to them by their supervisor, Grace and by lunch time, they were all exhausted and ready to take a break.Adele sat behind her cubicle, contemplating whether to call Jamal and ask if they could eat lunch together. The man was her husband, but she understood the kind of busy person he was and sometimes, when making requests, she feared that she was being a bother or a distraction to him. After a long moment of contemplating whether to call or not, she finally decided not to. She calmly placed her phone on her table and let out a tired sigh.It was as if she was never going to fully get used to her own husband.“Adele!” Kelly whispered harshly and Adele trembled on her spot as she snapped out of her thoughts.“Whoa, whoa whoa…” Kelly explained when she noticed her reaction. “What’s going on? You’ve been lost in thought for a while now and you shook a g

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTEEN“Cole!” Adele called when she spotted Cole walking into their office at the conglomerate. When Cole heard her call, he instantly halted on his tracks and turned to face her. A few weeks ago, he would have walked over to her and given her a casual hug and even pecked her cheeks, but after finding out that she was the wife of Jamal King Dominick, his boss, he could even dare to get too close to her.“Mrs. King.” He called with a smile and Adele frowned in disappointment as she approached him.“I thought we already had this talk, Cole. Please, don’t address me as Mrs King, it makes me feel very old.” Adele lamented and Cole chuckled, shaking his head.“You don’t get it, do you? If your husband hears me calling you by your first name, he’s going to have me fired. I love my job.”“You honestly think Jamal is that petty, don’t you?” Adele asked with a serious look."I did not hear you just address my big boss by his first name. I swear I did not hear that.”

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTEEN.“Good morning Mr. King.” Christine, Jamal's main secretary, greeted as he approached her table.“Good morning, Christine.” Jamal replied with a smile.“Mr. King, there’s someone waiting for you in your office.” Christine announced and Jamal halted on his tracks and turned to face her with a curious frown on his face.He wasn’t expecting anyone that morning and he knew that if Christine had let whoever it was wait for him in his office, then he or she was an important person.“And, who is that?” He asked.“Your father, Mr, dominick.” She deciphered and Jamal’s heart fell into his abdomen. That was the last name he was expecting to hear. He closed his eyes and silently exhaled and straightened up his tuxedo before going into his office to face his father.He had no idea why the man had come to his office so early in the morning. The last time they met to have a one on one discussion, they had separated on a bad foot so he had no idea how the talk that m

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWELVE.It was dinner time at the mansion and Adele, Jamal and Grandma were having dinner at the dining table. Shannelle was not with them because she was spending the night at her fiancé’s house. Something that did not sit well with Jamal. He had been grumbling about it ever since she told him.“She never listens to me!” He mumbled under his breath as Adele served him some hot sauce.“Who never listens to you?” She asked and took her seat. Jamal looked at her and sighed heavily. He creased his forehead with his fingers and sighed yet again before looking at Adele again who was patiently waiting for him to tell her what she wanted to hear.“I guess I'm never going to stop wanting to protect her.” He lamented.“Who are you talking about?” Asked, Grandma.“Shannelle. I’m talking about Shannelle.” “What about her?” Adele questioned as she took in a scoop of her soup, her eyes not leaving Jamal's worried face.“A few hours ago, she called to inform me that she wou

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN.Aliya’s mind was in turmoil the entire day. When she had asked her son why he was not on good terms with his father, he had only smiled and asked her husband so he could tell her all what he did to her. She was worried.She was extremely worried because she had no idea what to expect. Jamal and his father had always had a very close relationship. He was always closer to his father than he was close to her and that sometimes made her jealous, but a few years ago, she discovered that the bond between father and son had been broken. When Jamal just started working at the conglomerate, he adored his father and he did everything his father had asked him to do, but a few years later, everything fell apart. Jamal lost all respect for his father and had even kicked his father out of the company.At first, she had thought Adele was the cause of all what happened, but after realising herself, she knew there was something bigger and she needed to find out. She un

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TEN.Adele went straight home after her visit to the Dominick residence. She still didn't know what to make out of everything Aliya had told her. Yes, she accepted her apology and Aliya even hugged her for the first time in her life, but she was still in shock. All day long, she kept wondering what Shannelle could have possibly told her mother to change her heart as such.The hatred Aliya always showed Adele had made her understand that there was nothing in the world that could make Aliya like and accept her as her daughter-in-law, but she had done just that."Baby." Jamal called when he entered the bedroom. Adele was sitting on one of the sofas in the sitting area, totally lost in in thought but when she heard her name, she snapped out and smiled at her husband who sat by her side."Hey…" she greeted calmly and kissed him. Jamal could tell from her looks that everything was not okay."I was told you left work early today, is everything alright? Do you feel si

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINE.Shannelle got a call from her mother in the morning to come meet her immediately and she had no idea what that was about. As the obedient daughter she was, she hastily got herself ready and went over to her parents house to hear what her mother had to tell her."Mum." She called once she got into the living room. The television was on, meaning her mother was somewhere around. "Mum." She called, looking around."Shannelle." Aliya called from the staircase. Shannelle looked up and saw her mother descending that staircase with an eternal frown masked on her face. Shannelle could help but wonder why her mother was so furious early in the morning."Mum, you called. Is everything alright?" She was concerned and her mother scowled at her. She was confused."I heard you hung out with Adele yesterday. She accompanied you to your dress fitting. Is that true?" Her mother asked as she stood before her and that was when it dawned on Shannelle. Her mother had called he
