The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 252: Jealous
Margaux clenched her fists tightly. She suddenly felt betrayed by everyone in the room. ‘No wonder it’s all Filipino food on the table!’ she thought. She already suspected that it was him, but she was denying it and was convincing herself that her mother would not invite him for there was really no reason to invite him to their family dinner at all. “Come here, have a seat. I prepared all these for you..” her mother stood up and warmly invited Hendrix to join the table. Pursing her lips, she lowered her head and felt so betrayed. She did not know why, of all people, that her own mother was doing that when she knew about her feelings towards the guy. ‘Did she want us to get back together?’ she asked herself, but she quickly sneered as she did not like the idea at all. “Sit here,” she heard her mother muttering. When she lifted her head, her lips parted slightly as she did not expect her to let Hendrix sit next to her. She was already prepared to stand and walk out once the guy g
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 253: Issue
Margaux was beyond shocked at the straightforwardness of her father. Although she already knew how blunt her father could be, still, she did not expect him to ask that. The marriage certificate thing even slipped her mind as she was too preoccupied with Hendrix’s presence in their house. “Geronimo,” she heard her mother speak. Her head turned to her direction and she saw her mother giving Hendrix a reassuring smile. Her brows instantly furrowed as she wondered since when the two had gotten close? “Uncle, he was drunk last night,” Daisy interjected. Margaux’s lips parted as she looked at her cousin. Her chest felt heavy all of a sudden while her eyes were squinting. “How did you know that?” she could not help but ask. She did not like it one bit that Daisy knew that Hendrix was drunk last night, for it only meant that they continued contacting each other. She felt betrayed although her cousin had every right to be friends with him or anyone. Meanwhile, Daisy just smiled at her,

“Why would you call for a press conference?” Daisy inquired. She looked at her cousin and lifted the corner of her lips, “To clear everything. A lot of misunderstanding has been brought to the public and I want to address it one by one all at once,” she replied casually. She could see that Hendrix was looking at her again through her peripheral vision. Her lips twitched as her eyebrows knitted together. She badly wanted to show him that she did not want his explanation and she could fix the problem on her own without any help, especially his. “I will be with you..” Her cousin stated. Her mother, Felissa, however seemed to not like her idea as the old woman looked at her with obvious concern on her face. “Are you certain about that? Can’t you just post a long letter on the company’s office website?” her mother queried. “Honey, let your daughter do it. It is better to have a press conference so she could answer everything that the reporters may throw at her. At Least there, she c

‘Closure?’ Margaux was stunned. Her heart skipped a beat and her inside went riot as they all protested upon hearing that word. It was a taboo word for her and her brain just exploded.‘Do I want it?’ she thought to herself. However, she quickly shook her head by instinct and stepped backwards again. “Margaux..” Hendrix finally spoke. Her body stiffened. She stood there like a statue. Her heart almost drop while her eyes turned wide as saucers as she stared at Hendrix. She did not know why but she suddenly got scared hearing his voice and she just wanted to hide from him. “Can I… come in?” he queried. Her lips parted and jaw almost drop on the floor. Subconsciously, she clutched the bathrobe she was wearing. However, before she could refuse, her mother already pushed Hendrix inside her room and smiled at her. “You two need to talk. Don’t worry about your father,” her mother stated then winked at her before closing the door. She was beyond shock. Her eyes remained on the clos
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 256: Let Go
The silence was killing Hendrix. He buried his face on the crook of her neck and squeezed her body tighter as he took a deep breath. “Love..” he mumbled. He felt Margaux flinched but still, she remained silent and unmoving. She was so stiff as if he was hugging a statue, cold and immobile. His heart sank thinking that she was really not interested in whatever he was saying. Shutting his eyes, he bit the bottom of his lips and nuzzled his nose against the skin off her neck. Her porcelain skin was so soft and smooth. She also smelled so good that it was slowly awakening his desire. If she stayed unmoving, he would just take advantage of it, he thought. However, before he could even start his plan, Margaux seemed to hear his mind and quickly removed his hands off her waist. She also stepped away, leaving a huge distance between them as though he had a contagious disease. “Leave now if you have nothing to say,” she said sternly.His body instantly froze. His eyes went a little wide
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 257: Closure
It was hard, but Hendrix tried his best to suppress his feelings from bursting out. His eyes were already damp and bloodshot while her insides were on the verge of dying. But still, he managed to keep a straight face in front of her. Looking up, he took a deep breath and sighed loudly. His gaze went back to Margaux and saw her looking stunned while staring at him in utter disbelief. ‘Why does she seem shocked though? Is that what she badly wanted?’ he thought to himself. Forcefully stretching his lips, he tried to give her a reassuring smile. However, he was not a good actor, thus his smile probably scared her rather than assuring her. Just by the look on her pretty face, it seemed like she could tell that he was just faking it. “Please do it now,” she muttered after a long excruciating silence. His eyes flickered as tears almost fell upon hearing her response. All his hope disappeared in an instant as well as his biggest dream just shattered into pieces in just a snap.Margaux’s
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 258: Work
“Miss Margaux?” Carlos quickly stood from his chair and hastily walked towards her with brows furrowed. “Why are you here?” he queried in disbelief. Margaux raised her eyebrows as she looked at her secretary, “I’m here to work, isn't it obvious?” she responded.Her secretary tilted his head and stared at her as if something was wrong with her, “Work? Aren't you still on leave?” She could see the confusion on her secretary’s face. Indeed, she was supposed to be on vacation as her two months leave was not yet done. However, she didn't think she would ever enjoy traveling and such after what happened the other night. Shaking her head, she flashed him a fake smile, “I miss working,” she replied curtly then walked ahead to her office. Carlos immediately ran past her and opened the door for her. She muttered a small thank you before entering the room. Her eyes wandered around, looking at the spacious room that had obviously not been used for the past few weeks. “Bring all the papers I
The Billionaire's Abandoned Wife is an Heiress Chapter 259: Happy
Her hands froze from skimming the documents while her heart skipped a beat. Her eyes flickered but she immediately blinked several times and just cleared her throat. “Good for him,” she said blankly. She kept her eyes on the documents although her focus was already out of it. “Seriously, babe?” Daisy retorted. “Stop deceiving yourself, will you?” her voice sounded frustrated. Pursing her lips, she lifted her eyes and scowled at her cousin, “Who says I am deceiving myself?” she queried. Her cousin arched her eyebrow perfectly as she gave her a scrutinizing look. “You don't?” Margaux quickly shook her head in response. Daisy squinted her eyes but did not say anything anymore. All the three of them walked to the sofa and sat there comfortably. “You're okay not seeing him anymore?” Dinah inquired. She pressed her lips tightly as her jaw clenched. She didn't want to answer that because she was sure they would know that she was only lying. And it won't justify what she had just tol

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
