The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 19: Kiss
Margaux felt warm and soft things suddenly pressed against her lips. Startled, her eyes immediately opened only to be thunderstruck upon realizing that Hendrix just kissed her. Her body became stiff, while her insides became a huge mess. She gasped but the moment her lips parted, Hendrix tongue quickly invaded her mouth. ‘This is my first kiss!’ her mind was screaming. Her breathing became ragged while her heartbeat was unhinged. She shut her eyes again as she couldn't handle her overflowing emotion anymore. Slowly, her hands were raising until it rested on his forearms. She was about to kiss back - although she didn't know how - when she heard someone call her name. “Miss Margaux?” It's as if Margaux was splashed by a whole bucket of ice, she quickly pushed Hendrix with all her strength and hastily ran away without looking back. “Shit!” she cursed loudly as she ran inside the cafe and went straight to the comfort room. “Shit! What the heck was that?!” she hissed after closing
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 20: Fury
Margaux slammed her phone on the table, startling Linda who was standing on the side. Her eyes were flaring as her blood was boiling at the information she had just read. The audacity of that guy! She thought about the kiss and her emotion fired up into a fit of rage. She badly wanted to slap him for taking her first kiss! Unceremoniously, she stood up and took her coffee with her. “I'm going upstairs now,” she said, then walked away without waiting for Linda's response. With revenge filled her mind, she quickly called Carlos as soon as she entered her room. “Hello?” His voice was hoarse as Margaux didn't realize she was calling at three in the morning. “Ban M Corp from having any business deals in the UK. Make sure to inform everyone that those who will associate with that company will be immediately removed under the wings of MDHS Group,” she said coldly. There was a long pause before Carlos finally responded. “I'll send an email to all the business companies under us right

“Consider it done,” Abigail said confidently before she ended the call. The sun was already rising when she looked up. As for her sleep, it had completely abandoned her, that's why she decided to just go out for a run instead. She changed her clothes into her workout outfit and tied her hair in a high ponytail. She was wearing airpods in both ears as she ran slowly around the area. Their neighbors were too far from them so she was free to lurk alone, evenso, those neighbors were actually just their relatives that's why there's really nothing to worry about her safety. They own the vast land in a secluded area outside the city. It was peaceful and free from pollution as the land was full of trees and flowers. She went around their property for almost two hours. The sun had completely risen and the cleaners and gardeners had already started working in the vast backyard. “Miss Margaux,” they greeted. Margaux smiled at them and greeted them back. The run helped her mood improve a l
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 22: Leave
Hendrix went back to the hotel with a dejected face. He waited for Margaux for hours only to see the cafe was empty. His heart can't calm down as he thought about her sweet mouth. He never kissed anyone else before and it was the first time he initiated to have one. He was not sure if he did it right but was still satisfied with that. He looked deteriorated when he finally reached the hotel. Not paying attention to his surroundings, he was surprised when a woman he didn't know suddenly approached him. “Hi! You're Hendrix Mondragon, right?” greeted the woman who blocked his way. “Who are you?” he scowled as he was not interested in her. “I'm Leila Guzman. Nice to finally meet you,” she said while smiling flirtatiously at him while extending her hand towards him.Hendrix pressed his lips, not liking every bit of it. He ignored her extended hand as if he couldn't see it at all. He didn't know her and he was not the type to converse with strangers. He even finds it creepy that she kn
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 23: Information Overload
Hendrix woke up by the loud ringing of his phone. He was still disoriented as he had not much rest since he arrived there. “I found something,” the other line announced excitedly without any introductions nor greetings. Frowning, his mind was still processing it when Giro spoke again, “Sorry to interrupt your sleep. But this is very important”Hendrix let out a sigh. He sat on his bed and wiped his face with his palm. He's already completely awake and ready to hear whatever he has to say. “I'm listening,” he stated. “Surprisingly, we are searching for the wrong keyword that's why we met the dead end!” Giro started. The creases on his forehead deepened, as he vaguely understood what he was saying. “Go straight to the point,” he ordered impatiently. Giro's energy was too high and he could not understand his excitement. As far as he knows, it was already night there so he didn't know what's gotten his friend to because of that. Hendrix heard him clearing his throat first as if he
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 24: See You
Daisy elegantly sat on the couch as soon as Hendrix opened the door. His parents, however, were giving him a look that he couldn't fathom at all. “Who is she?” Wilma's eyes were squinting suspiciously at him. But instead of answering, he just ignored his mother and walked towards Daisy instead. She's an esteemed guest anyway, therefore, he couldn't leave her unattended. “What can I do for you, Miss Hermani?” he politely asked. Good thing, he washed his face and changed his clothes before he opened the door and let them in. He cannot embarrass himself, especially in front of Margaux's cousin. “Hermani? Is she related to Margaux?” Wilma interrupted. Hendrix watched how Daisy's eyes narrowed at Wilma. He clearly saw how those pair of blue orbs glinted in disdain. Although confused, he didn't say anything even though he was wondering why she seemed angry at his mother when they hadn't met before. “Who are you?” The woman raised her eyebrows perfectly. “I'm Hendrix's mother. How
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 25: Jealous
“Margaux?” Roxanne gasped as soon as the door opened in front of the and revealed Margaux with a man. “W-why are you here?!” Hendrix watched how Margaux stiffened the moment she noticed them. Their eyes met but she immediately avoided him as if she was guilty for being caught. As she should' be! He thought. She was leaving a hotel suite with another man, which only meant she was cheating on him! His headache was getting severe as he thought of the possible things they had done inside that room! “Fvck. I won't forgive you!” he screamed and right away, his fist instantly landed on the guy's face. “Cali!” Margaux screeched and quickly attended to the guy. “Are you okay?” she asked worriedly. Then, her head whipped at Hendrix and glared at him, “What the heck is wrong with you?! Why did you punch Cali?!” she snarled at him. Hendrix's eyes were blazing in anger. He didn't leave his eyes to the guy who was wiping the blood on his lips. “What did you do to my wife?” he glowered. “H
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 26: Pay
To say she was shocked was understatement. It was not even that because she was actually terrified. “What are you saying, Hendrix? Didn't you already sign the divorce paper? Your mother already filed that with me,” said the old woman. Margaux got frozen upon hearing that. She didn't know whether to laugh or to cry as she felt her body suddenly turn numb. “What?” Hendrix hissed in disbelief. Roxanne's mother smiled gently at him, “I was with her when she filed it. She said you asked her to do it since you were to busy with the company” Before Hendrix could react, someone had already pulled her back inside the suite. Everything was so fast that she felt dizzy and disoriented. “I knew he's up to no good,” Daisy commented. “C'mon, move there and treat my wound!” Cali whined as he nudged her. Margaux blinked several times before finally realizing she was back inside the suite. She quickly went to the bathroom and took the first aid kit. “Be my nurse since it's because of you why

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 Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 380: Yours
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
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 379: Forgiven
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
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 378: Okay
“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.
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 377: Ask
“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,”
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 376: Sorry
“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
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 375: False Alarm
“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.
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 374: Trust
“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
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 373: History
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
