THE CONTRACT WIFE CHAPTER 42
CHAPTER 42- Zara’s POV As we were engrossed in our conversation, a maid discreetly entered the room, interrupting us. “Apologies for the inconvenience, ladies. Our chef won't be able to make it on time today, so there won't be lunch prepared,” the housekeeper informed us. The lady pondered for a moment, contemplating our options for lunch. “If that's the case, we could consider ordering from a buffet or dining out at a five-star restaurant for a change,” Mom suggested. However, I had another idea brewing in my mind. “Would it be alright if I take charge of preparing our lunch?” I asked, feeling a surge of confidence. Stephanie smiled, seemingly impressed. “Wow! You can cook? I'm so envious! I've never been able to pick up the skill, so only my husband cooks for us. I still dream of being able to cook for my family one day,” Stephanie admitted wistfully. “I could teach you sometime. Cooking is something our family truly enjoys. I want my son to grow up appreciating my home-cooke
THE CONTRACT WIFE CHAPTER 43
CHAPTER 43 – Zara’s POV Lucas responded calmly, not allowing Giselle's presence to rattle him. “I have nothing to explain to you, Giselle. We are over, and you should stop this scandalous act.” The model stood up, scanning the room and fixating her gaze on us, particularly my son. “We're over? We only broke up a month ago, and you already have a son who's about to become a teenager! Hey, Lucas, have you been cheating on all this time? How dare you reveal what I did? It was supposed to be kept hidden! You damn cheater! Everyone should know about this!” Giselle shouted, her laughter filled with madness. Sensing the need for calm, I suggested that Stephanie take the child inside to spare him from witnessing the unfolding scandal. I didn't want my son to be traumatized amidst what should have been a joyful gathering. After all, there should always be a sense of fun associated with such occasions, right? Stephanie agreed and guided the boy indoors, while Giselle continued her persisten
THE CONTRACT WIFE CHAPTER 44
CHAPTER 44 – Zara’s POV I took his invitation spontaneously, running my hand over his hard chest and down to his abs. I pulled him close, kissing his lips once again, longing for the connection. The flames of passion began to engulf us once more. He expertly removed my clothes, revealing that I wasn't wearing a bra. He kissed my breasts, massaging them with care before gently suckling on them. “Oh, Lucas, don't stop!” I moaned between every gasp. It felt like I was going crazy with every touch of our skin. It was hot, scorching, but there was a strangely pleasurable sensation coursing through my body. His hand roamed, exploring my body like he was worshipping a goddess. He didn't even skip my cave; his fingers played skillfully, making my legs tremble from the sensation. He was not just an expert; he was a master of the game. It was as if he knew exactly where to touch every sensitive spot on my body. As he prepared himself with lubricant, I felt a mixture of excitement and appr
THE CONTRACT WIFE CHAPTER 45
CHAPTER 45 – Zara’s POV When I heard the name of another woman, my world suddenly stopped, and I just stared at him. I didn't stop him, and I let him finish. I had to endure the pain of his betrayal. I wanted to break away, but I didn't. Maybe it was okay if he mistakenly called her name once, but he did it again. He mentioned Giselle's name repeatedly while he was inside me. I couldn't help but wonder how many times he had deceived me. “I trusted you,” I said because there was nothing else I could do but to have faith in him. But he kept mentioning her name, and I couldn't bear it anymore. I tried to hold back my tears as I confronted him directly. “Has something happened between you and Giselle?” I didn't pretend anymore and asked him straightforwardly. “Why?” Lucas retorted. “I just want to know when and how many times you've betrayed me,” I said, trying to hold back my tears in front of him. “I won't force you if you don't want me because I was used to it, but I wish you had
THE CONTRACT WIFE CHAPTER 46
CHAPTER 46 – Zara’s POV I tried to remind myself that I had experience in dealing with pain. Damn Nick for reminding me. As I poured out my feelings, it suddenly started raining heavily. Instead of holding back my tears, I let myself cry. I couldn't let anyone hear me cry; they might think I'm weak or sensitive. That's how I am, sometimes too fake. While crying about Lucas's actions, I still hoped that he would follow me. However, I believed it wouldn’t happen anytime soon. After all, I was the one who suggested a cool-off. Later on, I asked Nick to accompany me to the nearest church. I was confused so I needed some enlightenment. “You're fast,” I said to him. “Heartbroken people walk slowly,” he said. “Wait, what are you going to do at the church? There's no mass today,” Nick added. “I'm just going to light a candle for his dead feelings,” I replied jokingly, but it held a deeper meaning. “Ah, alright, I'll help you, but let's hurry, it looks like it's going to rain again,” Nick
THE CONTRACT WIFE CHAPTER 47
CHAPTER 47 – Zara’s POV Two days had passed, and I found myself somewhat indifferent to the situation between Lucas and me. Although he occasionally attempted to bridge the gap, his pride often got in the way. However, I didn't let it bother me too much. It was up to us to resolve our issues in due time. I loved Lucas deeply, and my love for him drove me to support him wholeheartedly in every aspect of his life. Whether it was his career, his aspirations for our family, or his dreams, I always said yes to him. But sometimes, I hoped for the same level of support in return. After all, my endeavors mattered too. I had poured my heart and soul into my businesses, fighting tooth and nail to keep them afloat. If everything were suddenly taken away from me—my businesses, my properties—there would be nothing left. Nevertheless, I had invested my blood, sweat, and tears into them, not to mention the livelihoods of numerous employees who depended on them. That's why I felt a tinge of disapp
THE CONTRACT WIFE CHAPTER 48
CHAPTER 48 – Zara’s POV Afterward, I refused to sleep, and I bet Nick felt the same. Because of what happened, neither of us could sleep well. So, I suggested he should go back to his room because I needed to be alone. Luckily, he agreed. I saw Nick again in the morning and he told me that breakfast was ready. Since was I starving, I waited until I was full before I opened up the topic for discussion but Nick beat me to it. He immediately apologized for his action. “I'm sorry about last night,” Nick apologized. “It's okay, but I hope you won't do it again,” I warned him. “I was tempted,” he said. “I'm used to you getting tempted easily,” I replied. I wasn't trying to hint at anything, but that was the truth. “Don't you want to shower early? Go ahead, I'll prepare our breakfast,” Nick said before heading to the kitchen. I entered the room and went straight to the bathroom to shower. In less than five minutes, I was done bathing. I wrapped myself in a towel before leaving the bat
THE CONTRACT WIFE CHAPTER 49
CHAPTER 49 – Zara’s POV ”I’m sorry,” I said to him and hugged him tightly before he could complain. “I’m really sorry,” I repeatedly apologized to the man I love but he just stared at me. Initially I was afraid to touch him because I thought he might reject me, but I still tried. “I miss you so much,” I said after passionately kissing him on the lips. “Where have you been, Zara?” Lucas asked. “Just around,” I replied. “But can we talk later?” I asked him as I entered the room and took off his clothes. We were both eager for each other, so in less than a minute, our clothes were scattered on the floor. Like me, Lucas was wild too. He squeezed my breasts firmly, making me squirm with laughter. As his lips slowly moved down from my lips to my stomach, I moaned when I felt his tongue on my womanhood. Maybe he thought it was better to be on the bed, so he carried me to the bed and quickly followed suit. “Oh Lucas...” I repeatedly whispered his name as he pleasured me with his tongue.

THE CONTRACT WIFE CHAPTER 75
CHAPTER 75 – Zara’s POV Fifteen years have passed since Lucas and I exchanged our vows, a journey filled with ups and downs, tears and smiles. We have faced countless challenges, nearly losing hope at times, but our determination has kept us fighting. Has it been an easy road for us? No, there's no such thing as a perfect relationship. We, like any couple, have experienced moments of doubt and contemplation. But we have also found reasons to hold on tightly, to weather the storms together. We understand that true happiness and a healthy relationship require effort and commitment. They say that when you're truly happy, time flies by unnoticed. And indeed, the time has flown. It feels like just yesterday when my children were young, and now they tower over me, grown into remarkable individuals. Enrique, our eldest, was already twenty-five years old. He has blossomed into a handsome, intelligent young man, dedicated to his studies and still possessing a gentle sweetness. He would be
THE CONTRACT WIFE CHAPTER 74
CHAPTER 74 – Zara’s POV The night weighed heavily upon us as we slept, carrying with it unresolved grievances. No greetings were exchanged, no apologies offered, and our stubbornness held us captive. The emotional distance between Lucas and me mirrored the separation of our children into separate rooms. The air grew cold, and doubts crept into my heart, leaving me feeling insecure and unimportant in his eyes. The warmth of our marriage seemed to wane, and tears streamed down my face throughout the night, burdened by the fear that his love for me had vanished. How had we come to this? I believed Lucas and I were destined to endure together until the very end. Yet here we were, estranged and adrift. His heart had seemingly changed with alarming swiftness, and I questioned why. Was it just me? Why had he distanced himself so abruptly? The weight of my emotions consumed me, and tears flowed ceaselessly. I cried out all the pain and anguish burdening my heart, emptying myself of the sor
THE CONTRACT WIFE CHAPTER 73
CHAPTER 73 – Zara’s POV The party was a success but then I felt something weird. I didn't know if it was just me, or I was just being paranoid. A woman's intuition was really something else when it kicked in, and I wasn't wrong when I saw that shameless woman. The daughter of our local mayor, who clung to my husband as if her life depended on it, and now she even dared to kiss my husband. As I watched her and Lucas together, it felt like I was punched with anger and jealousy in my heart. I remained calm, just observing the situation, but deep inside I wondered if Lucas would ever change for the better. We just got reunited, and there’s another woman already who was vying for his attention! “What the fuck, Nadine!” my husband exclaimed angrily, wiping his lips after the woman kissed him. They hadn't noticed me watching them yet. Nadine, that was the name of this shameless woman! Damn! “Lucas, I've loved you since then! I am willing to be your mistress, just keep me close to your he
THE CONTRACT WIFE CHAPTER 72
CHAPTER 72 – Zara’s POV We had been tirelessly searching for donors, hoping to find the perfect pair of eyes for Ava. As we awaited her recovery from the recent eye surgery, she remained fragile due to malnourishment. To ensure the well-being of both Ava and Enrique, we sought the assistance of our trusted pediatrician. Regular check-ups and monitoring their health became our top priority. “Thank you, Mom. I love you!” she exclaimed, planting a sweet kiss on my cheek. I offered my cheek, making it easier for her to reach. Our youngest overflowed with affection. “Mom loves you too, my dear. Alright, let's take a break from the cookies for now and have lunch later, alright?” I suggested as we moved to the table. “It's okay, Mom. These dolls are just for me to play with,” she assured me, referring to the gifts from her uncles and aunts. I anticipated that they would spoil her, especially since she was currently the youngest among her cousins. We thoroughly enjoyed the meal that Mom
THE CONTRACT WIFE CHAPTER 71
CHAPTER 71 – Zara’s POV That very day, we joyfully brought our daughter out of the orphanage, relieved to discover that she harbored no resentment. She expressed his happiness at having her wish fulfilled and being reunited with us. The overwhelming joy I felt was impossible to contain. Lucas, Enrique, and I had a delightful time together, showering our daughter with love and affection. Enrique, being the older brother, embraced him warmly, forming an instant bond. As we sat in the van, she curiously asked, “Where are we going?” It was late, and darkness had enveloped the surroundings. But we were nearing our grand mansion. The anticipation among everyone to meet our son, the long-lost member of the Blackwood family, was palpable. Gratitude filled the hearts of our relatives, thankful that we had finally found our daughter, our missing piece. It was as if a void in my heart had been miraculously filled. Lucas and I couldn't help but smile, radiating pure joy. “We're going home, sw
THE CONTRACT WIFE CHAPTER 70
CHAPTER 70 – Zara’s POV When Nick dropped that bombshell, it felt like the world turned icy. In an instant, a chill ran through my body, leaving me speechless and teary-eyed. The weight of his words pressed down on me, making it difficult to face him any longer. I feared that my emotions would betray me, causing me to say something I'd regret later. Leaving the precinct, I could feel my strength draining away. My knees wobbled, threatening to give out beneath me. I felt utterly weak, vulnerable in the face of such overwhelming news. The news of my daughter’s survival brought a mix of joy and guilt as a mother. I couldn't shake the feeling of remorse knowing that while I slept soundly in a comfortable bed and had three meals a day, my child was living in an orphanage, possibly feeling unloved and abandoned. “Let's go to Lucas, our child! Please!” I pleaded, my heart constricting, making it hard to catch my breath. “Honey, please, try to calm down. We'll be reunited with our son soo
THE CONTRACT WIFE CHAPTER 69
CHAPTER 69 – Zara’s POV We headed straight to Dr. Brown's clinic. Once we parked the car in the parking lot, we got out. The clinic was a three-story building. As soon as we entered, my husband immediately caught everyone's attention. Ever since I had known him, Lucas had always been like that. He effortlessly captured anyone's attention. His presence was enough to command respect and admiration at the same time. He was tall, with a perfect face, and he epitomized the idea of a handsome man. I felt so lucky among all the women in the world that he chose me. There was nothing particularly special about me, but he still chose me, even though I had disappeared for three years like a bubble. I wasn't a girl with self-confidence. I could barely stand up for myself. I didn't know how to be the best, and yet I was lucky to have someone like him. He had fallen in love with me deeply. It was back in college when we had met. He had been like a star I couldn't reach. He had been like the mo
THE CONTRACT WIFE CHAPTER 68
CHAPTER 68 – Zara’s POV All the nervousness from that night had vanished, especially after embracing my son and rescuing him from that horrific place. The scene was so distressing that I felt like I could faint at any moment. Now, Nick was in trouble. They had forcibly removed him from jail, but we would ensure that he wouldn't escape the consequences of his actions. He needed to spend a significant amount of time behind bars to reflect on what he had done. When we arrived home at the mansion, all of my husband's brothers and their wives were waiting for us. They were concerned about our well-being, and even though we reassured them that everything was fine, anger was brewing over Nick's behavior. Stephanie embraced me, and I felt a longing for that sibling connection. You see, I never had a sibling since I was the result of an unplanned pregnancy, and my biological father wasn't involved in my life, while my mother never sought a life partner. So having a sister like Stephanie, my
THE CONTRACT WIFE CHAPTER 67
CHAPTER 67 – Zara’s POV It seemed like the glass I was holding slipped from my hand, and it shattered, cutting me in the process. The pain stung, a physical representation of the emotional turmoil I was going through. I was in the kitchen, cooking breakfast while Lucas and our son haven't come down yet. Suddenly, I was overwhelmed by an inexplicable nervousness, and that's why I dropped the glass and got injured. Lucas quickly approached me, seeing my bleeding hands, and scolded me, “You need to be more careful, my dear!” “I don't know, I just suddenly got really nervous! That's why I dropped the glass. I'm sorry! Please don't be angry,” I said, feeling overwhelmed. He sighed with defeat in his voice, “Alright, just be careful next time, okay? Don't make me worry!” Then we decided to call Enrique, but the maid informed us that he was not in his room. Panic started to set in, and my phone rang from an anonymous number. Trembling, I answered the call. “Hello!” I said. “Hello, lov
