##Chapter 77Asked For His GunMichelle's POV “Shut up!” “Huh?” I was scared, but the voice I heard sounded familiar. I turned on the lamp on the bed stand hurriedly. “Lucian?” I asked, seeing how unstable he was. “Hmmm?” He smiled drunkenly. “What are you doing here? I thought you won't be coming back today” I held his hand. “I thought so too, but I couldn't leave you here all by yourself” he mumbled. “Hmm…. So romantic, you are not as bad as I thought” I giggled. “But why are you so drunk? You rarely get drunk, who are you with?” I asked suspiciously.“An old friend,” he replied slowly. “Old friend? I don't like him or her, right?” I asked, trying to figure out the gender, but he wasn't that smart to catch up.“Yes.” His reply was short, making me more curious. “Is the person a girl?” I asked, knowing he wouldn't even if I gave him signs.“Huh? It's a guy” he replied with a smile. “That's good, I will let this behavior pass… how can you come here in this state?” I teased his nose
##Chapter 78Making A PlanLucian's POV I left Michelle's room, and it has been cleared that she didn't care about them anymore so I had no reason to hold back.‘I should show that family how powerful I am’ I mulled in my head. I took my phone out of my pocket and dialed James number. “Hello boss” James said from the other end.“It's time to deal with the people in the corporate world.” I uttered, and he understood what I meant right away.“Okay Boss, what do I need to do?” He asked with a determined voice from other end.“James, I need you to go to Michelle's office now,” I ordered as I walked towards the car.“Okay boss” he replied, and hung up the call.Harry already opened the car door for me. “To the prosecution office” I said, and the car zoomed out of the parking lot.After some time, we got to the prosecution office. The prosecution office, in all its grandeur, stood as a fortress of justice, its walls echoing with the solemnity of the law. Within its chambers, the prosecutor
##Chapter 79All OverMichelle's POV The evening atmosphere envelops the city in a shroud of mystery and melancholy. As the sun dips below the horizon, casting long shadows across the urban landscape, a sense of quiet descends. The distant hum of traffic fades into the background, replaced by the soft rustle of leaves in the gentle breeze. Lights flicker on, painting the buildings in warm, inviting hues, contrasting with the growing darkness. It's a time when the city's secrets seem to whisper in the wind, and emotions swirl like the mist that rises from the damp streets.“The ex-president of Whitney's corporation has been arrested. He is suspected to be the mastermind behind the kidnapping case that happened recently to the new president, Michelle Harrison, Lucian Houston's wife. Evidence that proves the embezzling of the company funds, and bribery was found in her office, which is a perfect reason that can trigger such an act.”“The case will be followed up after the prosecutor rep
##Chapter 80;Are They Dating?!Michelle's POV “She already has a gun!” My husband's voice took over the conversation, dominating the entire room.“And who is Alex?” Darren's voice asked with the hint of jealousy even though he tried to hide it.I cleared my throat and looked at Bella who became muted all of sudden. ‘She will be the end of me!’ I screamed inwardly. ‘I should have shut her up early’ I blamed myself as I bit my lips awkwardly.“Why do you need a gun?” Lucian as he walked closer. “Hmmm—the____” I stammered as I was trying to explain, but he cut in. “Alex must've had a special place in your heart to need that?” Lucian said with his teeth gritted.And I became confused. He didn't sound jealous earlier or was I mistaken? “Huh? Not me! He was Bella's first love, first boyfriend!” I said hurriedly, I sold Bella out to save myself from him.“Sorry__ did I misunderstand you, my love?” My husband hugged me tightly, but the expression on Bella's face got me curious. ‘why is she a
##Chapter 81His Baby, His Wife Michelle's POV ‘I don't want to be here!’ I screamed embarrassingly in my head.“What a mood spoiler” I pinched Lucian's thigh, trying to give him a sign, but he was still as clueless as ever. “What did I say wrong?” He looked at me cluelessly, and at that moment I gave up. “Forget it, just shut up for now” I scolded him, before facing the couple with the unrequited romance. I had no idea when, and how it got to the level of them calling each other pet names .“I think you guys might want to have some privacy…. Do you think so?” I stylishly asked, wanting them to leave the room, before Lucian would make the situation worse.“Of course” Bella nodded as she shot my husband a deadly glare. But who am I to blame her? He ruined her moment and made the situation worse.She must've been waiting for the situation for so long ,but clueless husband ruined it. “We can just talk he__” Darren was saying, but Bella cut him off. “Don't worry I won't bite you” but B
##Chapter 82Shouldn't Be Houston Lucian's POV I sat in my office with a troubled mind then Darren walked in. “Hey buddy!” He said excitedly, and one would easily detect that he just made a huge achievement.“In love?” I asked nonchalantly as I shook my head at his childish behavior. “I am hereby present to you, Bella Vanderbilt’s boyfriend!” he shouted, and my eardrum suffered.“Keep it down dude!” I wasn't in the mood to cheer him up despite his years of being single and heartbroken because of his first love.“Are you not happy for me buddy?” He asked with a frown forming lines on his forehead. “I am happy for you, but I think you are too fast, Darren” I said, remembering that it was only a week after they met.“It doesn't matter, buddy. I will get to know her, and she will be faithful too, she promised to be gentle with my feelings” he blurted like a highschool boy in love with a college student.“Gentle with your feelings? C'mon you should be the one to say that… you are the guy,
##Chapter 83The RatMichelle's POV At the hospital VIP room,Dark took control, as there was a unique blend of serenity and unease. The room is bathed in a soft, melancholy atmosphere. The luxurious furnishings, though inviting, seem almost out of place in this setting. I hated it there, but I shouldn’t be upset. It's a space where the boundaries between comfort and concern blur, making it a place of both rest and reflection.“I just hope he is not angry that much?” I mumbled to myself which was more like a question. I only thought it was right to start working soon because of the effort he put in getting that position back, but I only made him angry. ‘What a wife!’ I thought. ‘I should call him… he can't stay angry at me for that long right? He would at least pity me… that's what I need now!’ I mulled it over, then I reached out to my phone immediately wanting to call him, but then I saw a message on my phone…Message read; “If anything happens to my dad, I will make sure you die
##Chapter 84The Day With HerLucian's POV We kissed passionately, but it got crazy as she traced her fingers down my trousers. ‘Oh no’ I mulled in my head. I knew Michelle won't keep her promise, and it wasn't yet time to have something that much. I can't afford to put her life in danger because of some desire.“Mich—elle” I breathed as I disengaged from the kiss and wanted to calm her down, but she didn't want to stop as she leaned forward and grabbed the belt, and continued kissing me. “C'mon Michelle……” I stopped her, but she was too stubborn and I didn't want to rough handle her. “Stop it…. Michelle stop!” I finally got her to stop.“Wh—yy?” She asked with her misty eyeballs. “You are still unwell, I can't risk it. You are pregnant and are still unstable. It's your first time and I know it might still be new to you, but we have to be careful…. I'm sorry” I patted her head, as I pulled her into my arms.“I’m ho*ny! I miss you!” She started crying. I knew she understood but she p
##Chapter 108Michelle's POV Reassurance“Good morning, darling.” Lucian kissed my neck on the bed. Shirtless, revealing his sexy n*pple and abs. “Morning,” I replied dryly as I stayed in the same position.“Michelle, wake up,” he whispered to me, but I didn't listen. “I brought you breakfast,” he mumbled, but I ignored him.“My love, you are with a child; you don't want to hurt the child, do you?” Lucian mumbled. “Leave me alone. I'm not hungry.“Really? Are you sure you don't want spicy chicken?” He asked stylishly as he opened the tray. The smell of the food hit my nose, and I couldn't resist it. 'Wow!’ My hormones couldn't resist it, even though I wasn't in the mood; my body was yearning for it.“I will just throw it away.” Lucian cleared his throat and wanted to take a step, but he halted when I hugged his thigh. “I will think about it.” “Think? C'mon, babe, you don't need to stress your little brain; I will throw it away, and we will go on a hunger strike together. You know I
Chapter 107IncapableHarry's POV“It's weird,” Elena mumbled beside me with a curious look, but I did everything possible to avoid telling her anything, because she has been trying every means to ask about the situation that happened earlier since we got home. I am too busy to explain the situation to her.“Babe,” she called. “Huh?” I turned to her. “Why are they after her?” She asked slowly. “After whom?” I acted ignorant.“You know what I'm talking about, Harry,” she slapped my arm. “It was just an accident, the driver was probably drunk. C'mon, baby, don't think too much,” I replied with a forced smile.“I'm not thinking too much here, and don't take me for a fool, Harry. What's happening? You all seem like you know what's going on, and you, my husband-to-be, refuse to tell me what the problem is.”“You guys are scaring me,” she hissed angrily. “What are you saying, darling?” I dropped my phone and pulled her closer. “It's her family's struggles. It's personal; that's why I decide
##Chapter106His Mansion Bella's POV “Michelle!” I wanted to follow her, but I was stopped by Darren. “Ella, calm down” he gave me a reassuring look.“Let's go” Darren motioned me to walk, but I couldn't move immediately as the scene I just witnessed kept reappearing in my head. I watched Lucian's car retreating back, thinking of how shocked she would be.“What just happened?” I mumbled, and Darren breath heavily. “Trust me Ella, we will take care of this.” “C'mon, let's leave this place” he held my hand and placed his other hand on my waist to support me while walking.“Okay” I nodded subconsciously as I followed him to the car. The silence inside the car made him worried that he checked up on me almost every second. I reached out to my phone, trying to call Michelle, but Darren was quick to understand my intention. “Ella stop. He will take care of her.”Not too long,We arrived at his mansion and I was confused because we didn't plan on going there, also that was my first time v
##Chapter 105Bring Him AliveLucian's POV The screech of tires ripped through the air, a sound that sent shivers down my spine and froze my blood. I looked up, my heart leaping into my throat as I saw my wife, oblivious to the danger, stepping out into the street. A car, a blur of metal and headlights, hurtled towards her, with terrible intentions.“Michelle?” Time seemed to slow down. I was paralyzed for a split second, my mind screaming at me to act, to move, to do something.“Michelle!” Then, a surge of adrenaline took over, propelling me forward with a force I didn't know I possessed. I lunged, reaching out with all my might, grabbing her arm just as the car wanted to hit her.We tumbled to the pavement, the impact jarring my body. I held her tight, my heart pounding against my ribs. My eyes scanned her face, searching for any sign of injury. “Are you okay, michelle?” I panicked more, seeing how quiet she was. I knew she was probably more shocked than I was.Relief washed over
##Chapter 104 Hit-and-run Michelle's POV. “Oh.” In an embarrassing move, I took a step back and tried to ask for Lucian's support Lucian, but he had already pulled away. 'Snitch!’ I screamed in my head with an awkward smile. “Oh? What if we are actually up to something? He is my boyfriend already!” “And also my boyfriend is not stupid and inconsiderate that would ask for such things here!” I smiled slightly when she yelled at me, knowing that I was merely trying to hide the fact that I was not purposefully accusing the man. I remained silent because I knew she might lose it if she found out that I thought that of her, and she was furious. I muttered, "I am sorry." She reprimanded me, saying, "You should apologize to my boyfriend, not me," and I laughed at her. "You are now becoming more mature." "I apologize, Mr. Stewart, for misinterpreting you." He was embarrassed by the entire situation, but my friend wasn't, so I bowed a little. She learned from me. How could she possibly
##Chapter 103 In Public Place Michelle's POV It's been a week and my husband has been constantly staying home with me. Working from home was cool, but I couldn't help thinking about Sharon's suspicious move. I stood beside the window thinking about the company, and how quiet everything was. “It's disturbing,” I muttered, referring to the silence. Not within the house, but the shareholders are being obedient as well, which was suspicious to Me. My father was still struggling to prove innocent as they kept adjourning the trial. I didn't care to even attend the trials because I knew it would only make me hate him more. I couldn't bring myself to forgive him after everything he did to me. “Wifey?” Lucian hugged me from behind, and kissed my neck softly. “Hubby” I moaned. “Why are they so quiet?” He asked, rubbing my belly softly. “I don't know, hubby. I'm just worried” I mumbled. “Worried? Why are you worried, my queen?” He looked at me. “I can't say, I think some
#Chapter 102Fuvked By The Delivery BoySharon's POVI walked into the mansion with my half-torned dress dragging my feet miserably, as I could believe that I was fuvked for hours only to find out that bastard was a delivery boy trying to impress girls.'I thought he was rich!’ I screamed in my head as I hated myself more. “Sharon, you are back” mom said approaching me. “Did you guys do it?” She asked with a serious look, and the world became a blurry mess of gray, a muted canvas where the vibrancy of life had been drained away. “Say something, Sharon.” Every sound, every touch, felt like a dull ache, a constant reminder of the emptiness within. It was as if I were trapped in a silent film, watching the world go by in black and white, while my own heart was a broken record, stuck on the same melancholic tune. The air itself felt heavy, pressing down on me like a physical weight.“Sharon!” “Leave me alone!” I screamed, not believing what I faced. A little boy fuvked me till day br
##Chapter 101Enemies Are BackMichelle's POV The sun casts a warm, golden glow over the landscape, bathing everything in light. Birds chirp merrily, and a gentle breeze rustles through the leaves, carrying the scent of blooming flowers. Lucian crossed his legs and read the magazines leisurely on the sofa and closed the bed.“It's a beautiful morning” I grunt lazily as I crawled towards him. “Morning baby” he dropped the magazine he was reading. He carried me up, and placed me on his lap.“How was your night?” He asked seductively, reminding me of what we had last night as he rubbed his hand softly on my belly. “Thanks to you.” I giggled, placing my head on his chest. “Are you feeling any pain?” He asked. “No, I'm not feeling pain, I'm still in my first trimester, what’s the rush?” I replied lazily. “Huh? I can't wait to become a father!” He smiled brightly, kissing my belly. “Dad love you so much, grow healthy, don't stress mommy” he said, rubbing my tummy. “You are being an extre
##Chapter 100The BarSharon's POV Late at night,Standing in front of the mirror, I can feel the excitement bubbling inside me. I slide into a sleek black dress that skims my body like a second skin. The fabric is soft and luxurious, and it clings to my curves in all the right places, making me feel both powerful and feminine. The dress has an off-the-shoulder design, exposing my shoulders and cleavage, adding a subtle hint of sensuality.As I twirl in front of the mirror, the hemline dances just above my knees, giving a playful glimpse of my legs. I choose a pair of bold red heels that elevate my stature and add a pop of color to my ensemble. With each step, I can feel the confidence radiating from me, and I know I’m ready to turn heads.“Dell would definitely fall for this” I muttered, as I finished off my look with a touch of smoky eye makeup and a soft, inviting fragrance that lingered in the air. Tonight, I’m not just wearing a dress; I’m embodying a vibe, ready to enchant the
