Jack started the engine but before the car moved, tons of guards already surrounded them and pointed their guns at them which made them gasp loudly.

Margaux’s breath hitched as her eyes widened as she watched those soldiers outside the window. Suddenly, she felt like a criminal who got caught escaping.

“What the hell are you doing, Liana?!” Daisy scowled as she opened the window on her side, “Do you know that this is illegal?” she hissed.

Liana on the other hand ignored Daisy and started knocking the window at the backseat instead. “We will stay here until you get out of that car, Margaux,” she warned.

She was confused as to what the woman really wanted from her. It was already clear that she would no longer tolerate her and would never hesitate to punish her if she went overboard once again.

Her forehead creased while staring at Liana, contemplating whether to comply or let all of them rot there.

“Are you scared of me?” the woman suddenly queried while wearing a sly smile as s

    Margaux didn't remember what happened, but the next thing she knew, they were already back in the manor. Daisy was holding on to her as they walked in the living room. Her chest was pounding erratically while she was still in shock by the news.“Margaux..” Felissa hastily went to her as soon as she saw them. “Are you okay?” she queried worriedly. “What happened? Did they announce it in front of you,” Don Geronimo inquired when she didn't respond to her mother. “Hendrix said he was not interested in Liana in front of the King and Queen. He made it clear that she had no chance so we thought she already gave up,” Daisy stated. Margaux felt her mother squeezed her hands. “The announcement seemed rushed. Did something happen after he said that?” Felissa asked curiously. “I think that's their back up plan,” Daisy chirped. “They initially wanted to arrange Jack with Liana that's why they invited him in. However, his parents didn't come.. I confronted them bout that and told them he's al

    Margaux gave Carlos detailed instructions before ending the call. The enormous living room was silent once again and everyone was looking at her in puzzlement. “Aren't you officially divorce already?” Daisy frowned at her. “Yes,” she answered curtly. “Then why are you releasing his marriage certificate? And it was not even valid because you used your fake name when you signed it,” her cousin pointed out. Her lips pursed as it was one of the things she both regretted and felt relieved that she did at the same. Regret because she couldn't fully use it to throw it in Liana and her parents' face. While she felt relieved because she was still smart to not let herself be tied with Hendrix completely. “It's better that way. At least she wouldn't get involved in their mess,” Felissa muttered. Daisy nodded briefly before tilting her head after a few seconds, “What if they revealed the truth? Isn't it just going to be another problem?” Margaux thought about it for a second. It will likel

    “This is not good,” Liana muttered. Hendrix grimaced when one the servant pressed a pack of ice on his swollen cheek a little harder. His thick eyebrows furrowed then as he was confused about what Liana was talking about. “I can't go out with you looking like that,” she continued while shaking her head. But before he could voice out his confusion, Margaux, Liana's secretary, suddenly entered the room while panting. “Your Highness, we have a problem,” she rattled, panicking. Shr then didn't wait for Liana to ask and immediately gave her phone to her boss, which piqued Hendrix's curiosity as the princess' reaction was priceless. “I hate her! She's really going to ruin me!” Liana screamed before marching out of the room. Hendrix scowled at Margaux. He didn't want to speak to him but he didn't want to be left in the dark. Fortunately, the woman didn't wait for him to say something and quickly faced him with an enraged expression as though he was the culprit who made her boss mad.

    “Margaux already knew what?” Hendrix immediately asked as he tried to free his arms from the soldiers' tight grips. “Tell me!” he demanded impatiently. “Shut up and walk inside!” one of them kicked him on the shin hard enough that caused him to fall on his knees with a loud grunt. ‘Fvck!’ he cursed mentally.He had no intention to follow them. He was not one of them to comply nor a scaredy cat to obey. However, those soldiers were really ruthless, because before he could even recover from the pain, they already pulled him up harshly then dragged him again inside the main door like he was just a useless thing. Despite his protest and struggles, his strength was no match with two people who were twice bigger than him. He felt humiliated. As it was the very first time someone treated him like that. He was used to people lowering their heads when they saw him. They even avoided him for they were scared to offend him with their existence. Gritting his teeth, he never felt so useless.

  • The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress   Chapter 154: Respect

    “How dare you talk to her like that?! You need to be punished for not respecting our Princess!” Liana’s secretary screamed angrily. Hendrix scoffed. His eyes never left Liana who seemed to be in utter shock. “Respect?” he grinned mockingly, “You don’t deserve that from me,” he said bluntly. “Shut up! You don’t know her at all!” the secretary exclaimed.He shook his head. He then turned to his side and looked at her coldly. “Criminals doesn’t deserve to be respected by their victims”The room instantly went silent after that. The woman froze and her jaw dropped open while staring at her incredulously. He already said that he was not going to tolerate them anymore. He had already been kind enough to her that he didn’t do anything when she tried to use him. “I'm not a criminal,” Liana finally spoke, cutting the deafening silence for quite long. “Kidnapping and detaining someone is a crime and people who do crimes are called criminals,” He said sarcastically. Loud gasps could be he

    Margaux stopped just right behind Liana and folded her arms. Her eyebrows instantly furrowed upon seeing Hendrix's swollen face. “How did you get in?” Liana scowled at her. Instantly, her gaze shifted to her cousin. She wanted to answer Hendrix's question right away, but she didn't want to miss the chance to see her defeated face. Raising her eyebrows, she flashed her a sardonic grin. “I entered through the gate,” she said sarcastically. “Why do you look surprised? Did you instruct the securities to not let me in?” She mentally laughed when Liana didn't respond and just clenched her fists while giving her a deadly glare.It was a sight to see the princess losing her composure because she was really good at keeping her facade and acting nonchalant in everything.“You won't be able to step your foot here again if I did that. I was just wondering why you came back,” Liana shrugged. Margaux narrowed her eyes when the woman quickly avoided her gaze. The corner of her lips then curved

    “What is that for?” Liana seemed weary as she stared at the recordings in her hand. Margaux tilted her head and grinned at her cousin, “I believe you are not as stupid as your secretary,” she muttered, “You clearly know why I am here so stop playing dumb and pretend that you don’t know what this is for..” Liana pursed her lips and didn’t say anything. While her eyes stayed in her hand.She took a step backwards and slowly hid her hands behinds. Her lips then curved upward when Liana lifted her gaza and met hers. “You want to take it?” she queried. The woman remained silent still and just narrowed her eyes towards her. But it didn’t escape from her keen eyes how Liana clenched her fists while trying to keep her innocent facade. “You can keep that. That’s useless anyway,” Liana smiled widely at her.Taken aback Margaux raised an eyebrow as she stared at her cousin. She didn’t expect her to say that. Her confidence was surprising, as she knew for the fact that the recording was a

    “You’re crazy,” Margaux muttered while shaking her head. She felt another squeeze in her hand but that time, it was a little tight that she thought Hendrix would crush it. “You are so hopeless,” he said, which made her head immediately snap towards him. Her chest tightened as she thought he was talking to her. But seeing him looking fiercely at Liana, she realized it was for the Princess who had suddenly gone real mad. Hendrix pulled her closer to him until her body bumped against his hard chest. She then felt his other hand snaked around her waist and securely held her as though someone was going to snatch her from him. “You don’t deserve to be a princess,” he continued. “Your attitude is way worse than those delinquents who neglected educations and never knew about good manners and right conduct”To say she was shocked was understatement. Margaux didn’t expect the sudden turn of events because seriously, she was already planning to just ignore Liana the whole time while she wa

  • The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress   EPILOGUE

    Hendrix's thick furrowed eyebrows became permanent as he buried his face on paper works. His workaholic self just couldn't help finishing them all before he went home. “Sir, it's past nine already,” Tom, his secretary, stated. “You can go home now,” he responded without lifting his head. Tom looked hesitant as he stared at his boss who was busy signing the documents. He could leave just as he told him to, but he knew his future would be at risk if he did not drag his boss out of his office. Standing there, he took a deep breath and was prepared to say the magic word when all of a sudden, a loud ring erupted in the whole office. Hendrix stopped whatever he was doing and scowled at his mobile phone resting on the corner of his desk. His face was dark as though he was displeased that he's got interrupted with his work. “Let me see, you're still in the office, am I right?” the caller said without any greetings. Hendrix didn't need to ask who was on the other line. His annoyin

    The manor was very busy as everyone seemed to be panicking as the time was running. But Margaux seemed oblivious as she was busy staring at herself in a huge mirror. Her heart was thumping hard. ‘This is it,” she told herself internally. The white beautiful wedding dress that was full of tiny diamonds was sparkling, almost blinding her eyes. Her hair was tied up in a very neat bun with some hair strands curled beautifully decorating her small face. While her makeup was just light, almost bare showing her natural beauty that made everyone in the room bewitched as they all looked at her. “Miss Margaux, it’s time to walk down the aisle,” the organizer announced. Margaux glanced over herself one more time before leaving the room. The organizer gave her the beautifully arranged white bouquet with a huge grin.“Mr Mondragon is so lucky,” she muttered with pure admiration. She did not respond and just gave her a small smile. Her stomach was churning as her chest was about to explode. S

    Margaux crossed her arms as she leaned on the back rest of the sofa, staring at the woman in front of her. She woke up alone and everyone in the manor was nowhere to be found aside for Liana who was sitting comfortably on the sofa in the living room while having a cup of tea as she descended the stairs. “Babe,” Liana flashed a small smile. Her eyebrows raised as she had no idea what her cousin was doing in their manor. As far as she could remember, she was left in the Philippines so she thought she would stay there and will never have the guts to show her face again out of remorse. ‘I forgot that she’s shameless,’ she thought and rolled her eyes. “I know you never wish to see me again,” Liana muttered. “You know but you still show up here,” she replied sarcastically. The princess let out a sigh then shook her head. Seeing that, Margaux thought she was going to retort a sarcastic remark and grin mockingly at her like she always does before. However, she’d seen none of it, rather

    “I want to give her a grand wedding in front of all of you, her family and friends,” Hendrix added. He was looking straight to Don Geronimo as he said those words with a very serious face. However, the corner of his lips lifted upon seeing Margaux’s reaction in his peripheral vision. “You’re already married,” Don Geronimo stated. Hendrix's lips pursed as he brought his attention back to the old man. “But it didn't feel right. I married her as Margaux Hermani and I want to correct that“ “Hendrix..” Margaux muttered. He finally looked at her direction and saw her flustered face and teary eyes. She probably didn't expect that and had a doubt about his plan. Stepping forward, he cupped her face and stared into her blue eyes. “I want to make this right,” he muttered. Then he put down his hands and shoved one onto the pocket of his jeans whilst slowly kneeling down in front of her. A loud gasp came from Margaux as he pulled out the velvet box and revealed a huge diamond ring.

    “You're blooming,” Daisy smirked as soon as they entered the dining room. Margaux’s face turned hot in an instant. She then threw her cousin a sharp glare on which the latter just laughed it off. “Why are you looking at me like that? I’m just stating a fact,” Daisy said and gave her a malicious grin. She rolled her eyes and did not say anything. Instead, she took her seat and looked around the table to see that they were complete except her parents, who were probably still in the hospital. “You should take the seat next to your wife,” she heard her uncle say. Her eyebrows raised as the only vacant seat next to her was his father's chair. “I don't think that's right,” Hendrix muttered as he stood still behind her chair. “Just take that seat and eat. It's just a chair,” her uncle Daniel insisted. Knowing that her husband won't do it for his respect for her father, she let out a sigh before glancing over her shoulder. “You can take that chair. No one will mind,”

    “Are you tired?” Hendrix queried as they cuddled under the blanket. ‘I am exhausted!’ Margaux’s mind screamed internally. Her face was burning and kept her eyes closed recalling what they had just done. It was not the first time anymore but it still felt new to her. Moreso, the experience was entirely different from the first one as she thought Hendrix didn't strain himself anymore which made her whole body sore. She felt his soft lips touch her forehead and a soft whisper of ‘I love you’ tingles her left ear. He then tightened his hold on her and pressed her body to his even more as if he was afraid to have even a tiniest gap between them. “Love..” he murmured. Curiously, Margaux slowly opened her eyes and met his gaze. But before she could say something, Hendrix quickly leaned in closer and claimed her lips. Gasping, she opened her eyes and reluctantly pushed him away. “I can't do it anymore,” she mumbled. She averted her gaze as her face became hotter. She had no qualms

    “Call all the doctors, quick!” she exclaimed as she kneeled down next to Hendrix. Her heart just stopped beating upon seeing his unconscious body. She didn't know where to touch him as she was afraid she might hurt him even more. “Love! Open your eyes, please! Don't sleep!” she cried. She could feel her cousin was trying to calm her but her emotions exploded that she could not hear anything anymore. “Babe, calm down!” Daisy shook her. “Love, please!” she pleaded. Her hands were shaking as she placed her palms on his chest. Although she could feel his heartbeat, still she cannot calm down seeing him unconscious with blood almost covering his shirt. “Let me check his wounds,” Felissa muttered. Reluctantly, she moved away and let her mother check where the gunshot was. She was holding her breath as she was trying to prepare for whatever she was going to see. However, as soon as her mother lifted Hendrix's shirt, loud gasps reverberated in the room and followed by loud laughter.

    “Aren’t you afraid that he might let that woman free?” Felissa inquired. Margaux heaved a sigh. Then, a small smile flashed her face as she looked at her mother. “I trust that he won’t do it, Mom..” she replied. Her mother stared at her for a long second before she responded. “What if he betrayed you?” she asked critically. She did not know if her mother was just testing her. But her question did not really come across her mind. After learning what happened from the nurse that was supposed to kill her, she knew right then that Hendrix did not really mean to shoot her. He was aiming for Doctor Pablo, not her. That’s why as soon as he tried to approach her, she did not hesitate to send him with that woman. She was that confident that he would come back to her, not thinking about other possibilities that he had other motives. Looking away, she curled her fingers as she was starting to doubt her decision. But then she shook her head immediately and lifted her chin as she returned her

    Margaux quickly shifted her head towards the door as soon as she heard it shut. Her shoulders slumped while she heaved a deep sigh. “Why did you make him leave and feel disappointed now?” Her father queried. She pursed her lips. Seriously, she didn’t know why she did that. Probably because she was not ready to face him yet. She took a deep breath once again and looked at her father. “Did you already know about Doctor Pablo?” She asked instead. Don Geronimo raised his eyebrows. His eyes lit up, prolly seeing her intention of changing the topic. “I had suspicion, but never thought he could actually do that to us,” he shook his head. Margaux’s eyes narrowed as she stared at her father. His actions and facial expression were so contradictory that she could not help but be skeptical. “Really?” She tilted her head and crossed her arms. She did trust her father, but at that moment, she could not help but doubt his words. Meanwhile, Don Geronimo suddenly laughed boisterously. “You’r
