Margaux was so shocked that her body stiffened. That person who was sitting next to her continued wiping her tears, oblivious of her shock.

“I hate seeing you cry,” the stranger stated as though they have known each other for a long time.

Slowly, she turned her head and looked on her side to see who it was. The creases on her forehead deepened when she finally recovered and realized that it was Josh.

“Why are you here?” She queried.

Josh smiled at her as if he already anticipated that she was going to ask that question. He then put his handkerchief inside his jacket before he answered.

“I can’t let you leave in that state so I followed you,” he shrugged.

Her face was filled with disbelief as she stared at the guy next to her. She did not need any companions and just wanted to be alone, far from everyone she knew.

In an instant, he blood boiled as she did not like what Josh was doing.

“Who said you could follow me? I wanted to be alone,” she hissed.

Josh seemed taken a

    Margaux quickly struggled in Josh’s arms. She knew what was happening and she won’t let that man leave without her breaking that camera that took her picture while being carried by Josh. However, Josh tightened his hold on her and her injury was becoming more painful that immediately stopped her from moving. “You planned this, did you?!” She glared at Josh. “That man has been following me and took this opportunity to capture us for what?!” She hit him and had no remorse doing so. She was so angry at his scheme and she knew he was doing it to ruin her plan of getting back with Hendrix. Was it love? Definitely not. Because if Josh really does love her, he won’t harm her in any way. Smiling bitterly, she finally stopped hitting him and just covered her face in frustration. “Put me down,” she said sternly. “But..” “I said put me down!” She spat. Josh carefully put her down and hesitantly looked at her. Meanwhile, her face contorted as she felt the pain on her right foot as

    “Margaux, I was the one who invited them here,” her mother stated calmly. Margaux looked at her mother incredulously, disbelieving of what her mother had just said. Meanwhile, Felissa caressed her hair gently and gave her a reassuring smile. “They are here to check on you..” Her eyebrows furrowed as she looked at her two wanted visitors. “Check on me?” She repeated. Her voice was full of sarcasm and she did not even try to hide it. She knew her mother would reprimand her for it, but she did not want to pretend to be okay with it when it was not really what she was feeling over their visit. “I’ve talked to them while you were asleep, sweetheart. There’s no harm in listening to them first before you decide whether to believe them or not. They’re still Hendrix’s parents. They are still your in-laws”The last sentence made her flinch. ‘In-laws?!’ her mind exclaimed. She stared at her mother with wide eyes as she could not believe that those words came from her mouth. But then, she

    “What happened to him?” she bravely asked. She saw her mother helped Wilma to stand up and made her sit down on the sofa and told David to sit down as well. They did not respond right away and she was even glad about it, because she was still processing about Hendrix’s situation and was not sure if she was ready for more information. “Margaux, you should take a rest first. We’ll talk about this later..” her mother stated. She quickly shook her head. How can she rest knowing that her husband was in critical condition? Her mind won’t be at ease now after accepting the truth. She wanted to know everything. She wanted to know how he ended up that way. Deep in her heart, she was still in disbelief because she hadn't seen him in the hospital bed unconscious with her own eyes. “I need to know now, Mom. Please tell me what happened to him,” she said, almost pleading.She even got up on the bed and was about to stand up. If not only for her sprained ankle, she would’ve run to the room n

    Her knees gave up upon seeing her cousin inside. She had forgotten that Daisy was also admitted there as all she could think of was Hendrix. “Margaux? How can you walk here? Jack! Please carry her here!” Daisy said in panic. She wanted to protest when Jack squatted and effortlessly carried her, but her right foot was really painful that she could not move anymore. Daisy quickly got out of her bed and let Jack lay her down there. She also checked her bandaged foot before scowling at her. “What are you thinking?” Her cousin reprimanded, “Didn’t you know that your bones here are broken? It's still swelling and painful! Why did you walk here alone?!” Despite the pain from her foot, she still notices her cousin’s anger towards her action. She really was not meant to go there. It was just a mistake because she thought it was Hendrix’s room. “Where’s Dinah and Saab? They are supposed to look out for you!” “Daisy, calm down. Our baby..” Jack muttered. That’s when Daisy stopped naggi

    “Babe, do you wanna go out now?” Daisy asked worriedly. Margaux quickly shook her head. She then tried to wipe her tears and bravely lifted her head. However, before her eyes landed on the bed, she saw Wilma’s tear stricken face while staring at her.“Thank you for coming here,” the old woman muttered. She did not know why but her heart melted at her words. Maybe because she was emotionally unstable. She did not respond to her and just shifted her gaze towards where the bed was. And in an instant, her whole body convulsed at the sight in front of her. “Babe! What’s happening?!” Daisy’s panicked voice reverberated in the room. She was oblivious of her surroundings anymore as her eyes were fixated on the bed where Hendrix was lying unconsciously. It was very identical to what she saw in her dreams and the only difference was, Roxanne wasn’t there. Those tubes in his face, hand, and chest. There were just too many things attached to his body that made her heart shattered into piec

    Margaux was admitted in the hospital longer than they were expecting. Her broken ankle was already getting better but her health was the opposite. She refused to eat and even talk to them. She was always lying on the bed and staring at the ceiling absentmindedly if she was not sleeping. Her parents, relatives and even Hendrix’s parents were all worried for her because they knew the blow to her regarding Hendrix's accident must have been too strong. It was expected that she would not take that news well, but they never expected that it would be that bad. On the other hand, Daisy was also advised to stay in their house because she almost bled again due to extreme worry. “Doc, how’s the surgery?” Felissa asked one of the doctors they summoned from different countries. “The operation is successful and the patient’s condition is already stable. However, there is still no certainty that he will wake up sooner as the damages in his internal organs were quite severe,” the doctor explai

    “I don’t know what you are thinking , Sue. That Josh obviously is lying. Look, it’s been days but where is he? He’s probably hiding somewhere by now,” Daisy ranted out after learning of his request to their uncle Geronimo. Sue leaned back on the couch and calmly watched his cousin getting furious. “You’re so impatient. You should stop stressing yourself out, seriously,” he said. Daisy clicked her tongue, “How could I?” She retaliated. “I won’t be relaxed in this situation when I can see Margaux like that?” She then pointed her index finger towards Margaux’s direction. They all turned their heads at where Daisy was pointing at and Sue quickly stood up upon seeing Margaux was already awake. “You’re finally awake,” Sue commented as he approached her. Margaux shook her head and looked away. Just like what she had been doing for the past days, she stared at the ceiling and lost in her thoughts once again. Daisy’s heart constricted as she could not take seeing her cousin like that. Sh

    “Please eat more,” Daisy coaxed Margaux as she pushed the spoon to her mouth. Margaux did not move as she already felt nauseated.“Daisy, that’s enough. She should eat just a few as her stomach needs adjusting,” her mother stopped Daisy. Sighing, Margaux carefully laid back on the bed as her body was still weak and she cannot sit for a long time. She did not say anything and just let her mother to talk some sense to Daisy because that cousin of hers wanted to keep feeding her despite knowing the fact that it was risky. “I’m sorry. This must be the hormone,” Daisy muttered. She nodded her head in response. Although she felt a little better at the moment, she was still feeling dizzy as she hadn't fully recovered yet. “How are you feeling now?” Her mother then asked. “Good,” she curtly answered. She chose the safest answer as she has no energy for talking even. All she wanted to do was to go back to sleep after filling her stomach. Her head was blank and she felt like there was

  • 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
