"Margaux!" Daisy called her name and trailed behind her but she just completely ignored her until she exited the restaurant. "Don't be mad at him!" her cousin shouted.

She hissed but she didn't look back. Even though she was very tempted to see their faces, she suppressed herself from turning their way and dragged her feet to go forward. However, as soon as she exited the restaurant, her steps instantly halted upon seeing Leila standing in front of her as though she had been waiting for someone, perhaps Hendrix.

Her eyes squinted when she saw her lips lifted upon seeing her as though she was the one she was waiting for instead of that man.

‘I knew it!” she exclaimed cheerfully.

She wanted to ignore her but her enthusiasm bothered her.

“I knew you would walk out on him!” she added then started stepping towards her.

“Pardon me?” she frowned.

They were not close but they were not strangers either. They don’t have beef with each other since there was no reason for it. However, aft

    Margaux’s eyebrows furrowed as she stopped and looked at the guard. “Come again?” she queried. “A truck of roses has been delivered to you, Miss Margaux,” the security guard repeated.Her jaw clenched. Although she should be flattered to receive such things, she couldn’t help but be annoyed because she was never fond of extravagant gifts despite her social status. “From whom?” she inquired. However, before the guard could answer her, someone suddenly appeared behind him and answered instead. “It’s from me,” Josh said. He was smiling wildly at her while carrying a huge bouquet of roses in different colors. It was not the first time that he gave her one if she remembered correctly but the situation now was different. And it was just a normal bouquet then, not a truck nor not even that huge one that he was holding. “For you..” he handed it to her. She stood there immobile and just stared at the flowers. She was thinking whether to take it or not as she did not understand what it

    Hendrix clenched his fists tightly as he twisted his lips. He did not move in his position even though Margaux walked past him without a word. Even though he wanted to follow her, his heart and ego were both stepped on and crashed into pieces that he could not even lift his head out of embarrassment and pain. It was his fault. No couldn’t be blame but him, not Leila or Daisy because he wouldn't be in that place if he didn’t let his pride and jealousy take over. She’s getting married and he had no right to stop her from doing what she wanted. He can be jealous but it didn’t give him the permission to hurt her. “Stand up. She already left,” He heard Daisy stated. He took a heavy breath before he slowly stood up. But he never lifted his head and just walked to the exit without saying a word. “I’m sorry..” Daisy muttered. Stunned, his steps abruptly halted upon hearing it. He was not expecting it at all, as though he thought that she was already done apologizing to Margaux. And

    “This is not a hunch, this is the truth,” Daisy continued. “She won’t be mad like that if she was not affected by your act earlier. And she wouldn’t feel that way if she didn’t care..”Hendrix didn’t know what to react. He did not expect that coming at all. Pursing his lips, his eyes went back outside the window as his mind flew somewhere. ‘Margaux still has feelings for me?’ he thought. His chest stammered as his heart was jumping in delight. It uplifted his mood in an instant and suddenly, all his lost hope came back like a newborn baby who just came out of the womb. “Even though I just said that she changed a lot, she’s still the cousin that grew up with me. I may not have predicted her outburst but I can certainly understand the reason for it..” Daisy said. He wasn’t listening anymore. His mind had gone out, wandering somewhere and not caring for other things any longer as he could only think of how he could talk to Margaux again and try to convince her to cancel the wedding

    “Good Morning!” Daisy greeted loudly while beaming at her brightly. Margaux’s eyebrows furrowed as she stared at her cousin. “What did you do?” she queried instead. “Nothing,” Daisy shrugged then sip on her milk. “Have you forgiven me yet?” she asked, quickly changing the topic. Her eyes squinted as she knew what she was trying to do. Her avoidance of her question was suspicious, thus she did not let it go. “I would if you tell me why you are in a good mood,” she said. “Did you two have a fight?” Her mother’s voice erupted which made them turn to her direction. “Don’t try to hide it,” she warned. “It was my fault, Aunt Felissa. I just went overboard this time,” Daisy admitted. “I think you should stop teasing her from now on. You know her situation and you need to focus on your health..” “I know but it’s really hard,” her cousin chuckled. Then she looked at her direction with a mischievous smile. “I think it’s actually my purpose here on earth, to tease her to make her life wo

    Margaux tapped the steering wheel with her fingers. The car was already parked in front of Liana’s hotel. She even got angry at Daisy for choosing that place earlier, but after her cousin explained that it was the safest place to meet with the person hiding from the authorities, her anger subsided a little. But still she was annoyed. She had been sitting there inside her unmoving car for five minutes already but she felt like stepping out of it was hard. She suddenly questioned herself what she was doing there as she didn’t know what came up to her and just agreed with her cousin’s ridiculous idea. ‘Did Daisy learn some voodoo tricks?’ she asked herself. That woman was seriously good at manipulating people to do what she wanted and it was a little terrifying as she thought about it now. She said it before that Daisy can make a living for it and she had just proved it to her at that moment. Letting out an exasperated sigh, she finally unlocked the door and was about to open it.

    Margaux looked at him incredulously. But then she quickly recovered and sneered. “So bold of you to say such a thing when you did not think about that and never considered what I will feel when you decided to go along with Daisy and Leila,” she muttered coldly. Her eyes narrowed when she saw him looking very surprised. “Why are you surprised?” she queried. Her tone was condescending.Hendrix swallowed hard as he could feel her contempt. He wanted to explain that he did not mean what he said, but no words were coming out of his mouth. Margaux’s eyes turned into a slit as she waited for his response. But his silence was killing her and testing her patience.“Did you become mute now?” she scoffed. All she wanted was his explanation. Since she was there, mind as well as listen to his side of the story to decide whether to punish him or not. Hendrix shook his head. “No..”“No?” her eyebrows raised. She was surprised that she was a little calm at that moment. As though she had all

    She had no idea since when did she became comfortable with him. Because as far as she knew, her body immediately reacted violently whenever he touched her, even just the tip of her hair. But that moment seemed different. It was weird that even though her body froze, it was only because she was surprised at the sudden touch. “Are you two finally reconciled?” Leila inquired with her eyes not leaving his hand securely holding her tiny waist. “This can’t be..” she then mumbled while shaking her head profusely. Margaux wanted to remove his hand but upon seeing the woman’s reaction, she decided against it and just kept her arms folded and unmoving. “Let’s go,” Hendrix suddenly whispered to her ears. She was expecting the guy to tell her off like what he did to Liana before, but it didn’t come and instead, she found herself being dragged by him towards the elevator. “Where are you taking me?” she hissed as she struggled to get inside the lift. “Let me go!” she exclaimed, not caring i

    Hendrix vehemently shook his head. “Look. She just offered this place to me as an apology. She never mentioned that this is her penthouse..” he quickly explained. Margaux folded her arms across her chest and narrowed her eyes on him. “Do you think I will believe you?” she hissed. Hendrix averted his gaze and quickly mumbled, “Of course you won’t. You already said many times that you don’t trust me,” then he chuckled. Stunned, her eyes went round as she gawked at him in disbelief. She was not expecting him to say that at all which made her chest tightened. All of a sudden, she wanted to deny it and tell him it was just a lie. But fortunately, she quickly realized that her heart was softening again just because of his reverse response. Clicking her tongue, she looked away. “That’s right! Glad that you know. We have nothing to talk about anymore then,” she said then turned her back on him. She thought he would stop her again, but she was wrong. Hendrix did not even mutter a word u

  • 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
