Tempted By My Jilted Groom Chapter 88: Alex's Men.
Wendy's POV.Two weeks later."I am beyond tired right then; I am glad I don't have another shift tonight," Kira whined as the last customer of the evening left, and we turned the sign ‘CLOSED’ by the restaurant door."Yeah, I am more than exhausted too, but look on the brighter side, we'll soon close from here. So, what about the kids, ain't you getting late?" I asked, bringing out my phone to check if the professor had sent any texts, but there was nothing from him, and I frowned.He had promised to come pick me up today, and I was eagerly waiting for him. I missed him. He hadn't been in the country for the past week, and he had been so busy that we hardly talked on the phone. I didn't know how much power he wielded to be absent from school for such a long time, but as usual, I gave all the credit to the fact that he was a crown prince."They went to their Granny's place; they'll be staying there for a while. I need to focus on my work, and you know my hunt for a better job takes a
Tempted By My Jilted Groom Chapter 89: Dangerous Angels.
Wendy's POV. "You four should leave, we do not entertain criminals in our restaurant," Kira said, coming to stand in my front.The men laughed and said, "Well, that wasn't what your boss said when he took money from us." "What?" I let out a surprise gasp, wondering what they were talking about. "You heard us well, lady, so I'll kindly ask, will you come with us willingly, or should we force you out of here?" The grumpy yet ugly-looking one I'll term as their leader asked and I gave him an unpleasing look, my face squeezed in disgust as I looked at him, wondering how a man can be so ugly inside out."She's not coming with you and I think it's best you all leave before I call the police, it's like you people have a death wish, it looks like you miss that disgusting boss of yours and hence you came to ask for death willingly, huh?" Kira asked, her voice dripping with disgust."We'll leave here but we're not leaving without that bitch behind you, she either follows us or we'll bundle h
Tempted By My Jilted Groom Chapter 90: Bad Luck
Wendy's POV. My heart hammered in my chest as I watched Kira fall to the floor, the sound of the gunshot still echoing in my ears. My eyes widened as I scanned the scene in front of me. Panic surged through my veins, and tears welled up in my eyes as I knelt beside her, my hands trembling as I reached out to touch her. "Kira!" I cried out, my voice cracking with fear and pain. I cradled her head in my hands, my heart breaking at the sight of blood seeping from her wound; she had been hit on her arms and the amount of blood that was gushing out of her arm was too much, "No. No. No. Please, this... This can't be happening to you, you don't deserve this... Oh God! What have I done." I cried, my heart clenching, hot tears welling up in my eyes as I watched one of the very few people who had shown me genuine love ever since I came here. "You stupid bitch, look what you've done," one of the men sneered, his voice filled with malice as he towered over us but I didn't even move or give a
Tempted By My Jilted Groom Chapter 91: A Glimpse of...
Wendy's POV."Wendy..." A familiar voice called, and I veered around almost immediately, my heart in my mouth. When I saw Aunt Linda heading towards me with open arms, I rushed towards her in a hurry. Tears fell freely from my eyes as she engulfed me in her embrace."My child, why is the world testing you so much?" She asked rhetorically, because I had no answers to it. I don't think there's anyone who has an answer to that question. I'm tired, truly tired of jumping from one deadly trouble to another. It seems like those around me would get hurt... Was I cursed?Did my family curse me or maybe my kingdom cursed me? I knew my assumptions were illogical, but that's the only thing I could blame for whatever shits that were happening to me."It's alright, my love. Don't cry too much or you'll fall sick. Do you want to fall sick, baby?" She asked, withdrawing from the hug. A low sigh escaped my lips as I sniffed my running nose.My head was aching badly, but I was still finding it hard to
Tempted By My Jilted Groom Chapter 92: A Friend Like No Other.
Wendy's POV.I approached Kira's hospital bed, a mix of relief and worry carved on my face. She woke up a few hours ago and she was already whining about the hospital stench. I hate the stench of the hospital but I can not let her know this, she would pester me that we should leave. "Do you need anything again, Kira?" I asked, trying to keep my voice steady despite the emotions in me. Kira flashed me a broad smile, her eyes twinkling with mischief and love. "You really need to stop asking me that," she teased, her voice tinged with laughter. "I told you I'm fine. I don't know why the doctors refused to discharge me. I'm in perfect condition. The wound still hurts a bit, but I'm fine now."Her casual dismissal of her own well-being made me want to both laugh and cry. I knew she was trying to reassure me, but the thought of her being in pain still chewed at my heart. Whenever I remember how I held her in my hands while she was bleeding, my chest tightened so badly that tears would dro
Tempted By My Jilted Groom Chapter 93: A Deal?
George's POV."Dad, please, I told you, something important came up so I had to leave. There was an emergency that required my attention in school," I explained, my frustration evident in my tone. I struggled to maintain a calm tone, not wanting to worsen the situation further through the video call with my father. This was one of the many reasons why I dreaded these family video calls—it was annoying and I couldn't even escape it."You mean you left an important meeting concerning our kingdom and many kingdoms because of some silly school emergency?!" My father's voice boomed from the other end, his disapproval evident on his face, and I knew it would be a matter of time before he started his lecture on responsibilities and how I had to take my duty seriously because I was the heir to the throne. Being the heir came with lots of advantages but the disadvantages... Good Lord, there were many.I cursed inwardly, realizing my mistake in mentioning it was a school emergency. I should ha
Tempted By My Jilted Groom Chapter 94: My little lucky charm.
Wendy's POV."How... I didn't understand, this is huge, bae!" I exclaimed in excitement as my eyes landed on the name board hanging proudly outside the restaurant—our ex-boss's restaurant."Well, let's just say a miracle happened," she replied, her smile broad and suspicious as she used her hand to blow herself dramatically. I couldn't help but laugh. I didn't know this was possible now; I knew she always talked about getting her own place and seeing this now... The goddess of happiness knows I'm truly happy for her."I sure could use that kind of miracle," I remarked, still trying to wrap my head around the unexpected turn of events. "But why put my name there? I didn't contribute to it, and you know it. If I had known you were doing something like this, I would have contributed whatever little I had. How did you even manage to get the restaurant?"I pulled her aside, eager to hear the details of her extraordinary achievement."Well, I saw an opportunity and I seized it," she explain
Tempted By My Jilted Groom Chapter 95: Back Again.
Wendy's POV."This is so incredibly unbelievable!" Aunt Linda shouted the next day after I told her about Kira's exceptional achievement. Aunt Linda had been out of town for a few days, and those days were the most boring in the house for me. May's hardly at home, and when she finally decides to stay home, she hardly talks to me."Yeah, I'm really impressed by everything. And do you know the best part?" I asked, chewing fast on my toast."What's it? Tell me already," she urged, giving me another plate of toast."Well, she made me her partner!""What! Goodness!! That's so incredible and surprising!" she said with a wide smile, and I just chuckled. My heart was beating with happiness. I never thought things would go so well. Till now, I'm still surprised that I got such a big offer. Kira was truly the best."I'm so happy for you, darling," She added, and I just smiled before saying, "Thanks, Auntie. I'm happy for myself and happy for her too. The restaurant looks better than ever, and

Tempted By My Jilted Groom Chapter 132: Love.
Wendy's POV. (Few days later.)"Thank goodness that good for nothing asshole got expelled, he deserves it." Aliyah said as we headed out of the class and Anna laughed. The news of Aaron suddenly getting expelled had baffled many and no one knows what he did or why he got expelled but I knew who was behind it. Professor George, I can't believe he'll do so much for me, I'm kinda regretting jilting him at the altar and I feel so much for him now... Maybe love. "I don't know what he did but he definitely deserves it, such a punk." Anna said and we all laughed. I want to see the professor but that would be hard with my friends around. They'll follow me anywhere I go but I have to look for a way. "Wendy, you don't look happy, ain't you happy he got expelled?" Ann asked and I smiled. How do I tell them that I'm the happiest?"Of course, I'm happy," I replied, trying to keep my tone light. "Just relieved it's all over."As we walked, my mind raced with thoughts of George. The way he had
Tempted By My Jilted Groom Chapter 131: Confused.
Wendy's POV. My heart was beating fast and furious as I stared at the school building, I looked at the text message in my phone and tears threatened to fall from my eyes. Could he be so cruel, would he do something like that? Aaron has nothing to loose, he would do what he had threatened and I think my life was literally over. Once that picture surfaced in school, I'm a goner... The picture might spread through the internet and my family would definitely see it, the new life I had been trying to protect would be destroyed if Aaron went ahead with his plan. I don't know what made him think that I would want him back after everything he had done to me. I don't even know who informed him of my newest location! I walked through the corridor slowly, the school was empty except for early comers like me... I wouldn't have come early today had Aaron not send me a message, telling me that he had uploaded the images in the school site. I'm ruined. "Hey Wendy." A guy greeted and I just nodd
Tempted By My Jilted Groom Chapter 130: Videos
George's POVWendy has finally turned me into the monster I didn't want to be. It's been a week yet, I cannot get my mind off the fact that her body is the medicine I needed to cure every sickness I was facing. Every time I see her, every time I watch her walk, and talk with her friends, it only makes me more confused as to why I hadn't made her mine just yet. Deep down, I know the reason but I was beyond reasoning when it comes to that girl. She was a distraction I don't mind getting distracted by but how do I go about it? What do I do with her? I don't know what to do with my feelings for her. Should I go for it or should I let her go? The mission I had come to the school for was the most pressing thing on my mind right now. It just has to be. With all these thoughts in my head, my shoes clicked against the tiled floor as I continued to make my way to the school's control room. This was one of the chances I could get as everyone was still home and it was still too early for anybo
Tempted By My Jilted Groom Chapter 129: Threat.
Wendy's POV. I stepped out of the taxi, feeling a mix of happiness and nervousness. Last night was incredible... Super hot and spicy...but now I was sore and my legs felt like jelly. Still, it had definitely been worth it.A knot of worry twisted in my stomach. He hadn't used protection again. He seemed to dislike it more and more, preferring the raw feel of us. I enjoyed it too but it made me anxious. I took precautions, but nothing was ever 100% effective.I walked slowly toward school, my mind reeling with thoughts. I'd spent the night at his place since Aunt Linda was away on a business trip and May hadn't stayed home. She never did unless Aunt Linda was around.Checking the time, I saw there was still over an hour before my next class. I decided to head to my usual quiet spot. It was a place few students visited, and the natural scent there always calmed me.My phone buzzed, and I glanced at the screen to see a message from Aliyah: *"You okay? Where are you?"* I quickly replied

George's POV. "I've missed you, so much babe..." Wendy mumbled as we walked into the bedroom.She had just come in and I am holding myself… trying not to jump on her immediately she came into my house. I smiled and drew her closer to me, my heart beating fast and furious but I tried to keep my cool. The urge to just carry her, strip her and fuck her was driving me insane but I kept my hunger for her in... Just a little more time and I would have her, I've been patient for almost two weeks, I can remain patient. "You have no idea how much I've missed you too princess and not been able to talk to you whenever I want was just another form of torture, I think you should consider moving in with me, I don't mind." I suggested and she just chuckled before dropping on the bed. "You know I can't move in with you, that's really dangerous." "Um, how about I rent an apartment for you huh? I can see you whenever I want, how does that sound?" I asked despite knowing the answer."Thank you but
Tempted By My Jilted Groom Chapter 127: Blessings.
Wendy's POV. Few weeks later. "May! What the fuck is wrong with you?" I demanded, grabbing her wrist as we left the classroom. The anger and frustration boiled over, my need for answers consuming me whole because I've been too patient for long. She yanked her hand away from my hold, glaring at me with eyes full of resentment. "Stop being childish, Wendy! I told you, I need space from you. Is that too much to ask for?" Her voice was sharp, cutting through the air. I sighed heavily, glancing around at the small crowd that had gathered to watch our confrontation. My head spun with the weight of their stares and the pressure of the situation. May had become so unbearable over the past few weeks, and this seemed like my only chance to get through to her. She avoids me at home and acts like I don't even exist whenever she sees me. "Please, May, what's wrong?" I pleaded, desperation creeping into my voice. "I need to know what I did so I can make amends. You're like a sister to me. Tell
Tempted By My Jilted Groom Chapter 126: An Old Wendy.
Wendy's POV. "You... Uncluttered swine. How dare you!" I huffed, looking at the man in front of me with nothing but disdain, he dares to say shit in front of me?!"What the fuck has gotten into you any way?!" I snapped, my voice laced with frustration and disgust. How could he have the audacity to pull a stunt like this?"What the hell is wrong with you Mr. Aaron?" I heard a deep masculine voice seethed and I turned to see Stan heading towards us; Tess, Anna and Aliyah were right behind him. I swallowed, thinking of a way to avoid the trouble that was clouding, "Are you alright Wendy?" Stan asked with a concerned look and I just forced a smile, thinking of different ways to stop the disaster waiting to happen."And who are you?" Aaron's voice penetrated into the air and I turned around to look at him with some kind of pure disdain."Look who's talking.... You know I saw you putting those cheap petals there, I never knew it was for Wendy, had I known, I would have had you arrested fo
Tempted By My Jilted Groom Chapter 125: Come Back To Me.
Wendy's POV. As the taxi rolled closer to the school, a surge of frustration twisted in my gut, the bitter taste of resentment flooding my senses. "Why does it have to be like this?" I muttered to myself, feeling the weight of every bitter memory pressing down on me.The taxi driver sometimes peeped at me through the rear mirror and I understand, he might probably be worried that he had picked up a psycho because of the way I had been muttering in his taxi. "My life is like a bad soap opera," I grumbled, clenching my fists as I stared out the window. "I'm just tired of it all, you know?" My life is the worst!Right now, I hate it, I mean I hate my life!A life where I have to see Aaron everyday and be reminded of how I had destroyed my life because of some love.I never thought I would not be looking forward to going to school, attending lectures... Everything at school annoys me now. All I wanted to do was stop going to school. I wanted to stay at home and have some peace of mind.
Tempted By My Jilted Groom Chapter 124: Messed Up Emotions.
Wendy's POV. As the class ended, I bolted out of the room like a bat out of hell, my mind spinning in different possibilities of how things can go awfully wrong."What the hell?!" I muttered, barely able to comprehend the situation. "How? What was he doing here and... Good Lord!" I pleaded internally, feeling utterly overwhelmed. "Please help me, I beg you. I can't handle this shit right now. How the fuck do I cope with this?""Wendy!" A voice called out, but I refused to acknowledge it. All I wanted was to find a quiet corner to think about the latest messy development in my life. I need to think and I have to think of solutions too. He had the audacity to show his face after what he'd done. The nerve of him to spew garbage at me. He should have had the decency to stay far away from me, to hide in shame. But no, he dared to confront me! I don't get it, what was he doing here anyway?! Fuck him and everything he stands for."Wendy!" The voice persisted, joined by others, but I didn'
