At first, his kisses were very slowly as though he was giving her a chance to stop him and pull away. But eventually, his lips were starting to move aggressively like a hungry madman and even tilted her head to deepen the kiss better. Her eyes automatically shut as the sensation was overwhelming her. It was not their first kiss as Hendrix had been stealing kisses from her ever since he stepped his foot in England. However, the feeling was always new and refreshing every time. It was as if he was kissing her differently, especially at that moment as though he had never kissed her before. “I love you more. I won’t get tired telling you that,” Hendrix murmured before delving his tongue into her mouth. Margaux let out a silent gasp as she felt the electricity in her mouth when their tongue touched. I felt surreal for she still could not believe that it was happening again and there was no guilt or suppression in her system anymore. Slowly, she lifted her hands and snaked around his ne
“Could it be. . .” Daisy trailed off while her gaze shifted to Margaux. 'Let's not accuse anyone without evidence,” Calli quickly said in a very serious tone. The room was filled with brief silence once again. Everyone seemed to be lost in thought including the police.“Do you have in mind who might have held grudges on you, Mr Mondragon?” One of the officers queried. Margaux turned her gaze back to Hendrix and saw his expression changed. His eyes were dark and dangerous, very opposite when he was looking at her just a few minutes ago. Hendrix’s jaw then clenched, “There is one,” he muttered. His eyes then shifted to her which made her heart almost jump out of its ribcage. ‘He’s not thinking it’s me, right?’ she thought nervously. Although she admitted that she hated him to the core, it was already in the past and she will never harm him, not even wish anything bad to happen to him. “Can you tell us who?” The officer inquired. She clenched her fist tightly and bit her lips so
Margaux’s eyes almost popped out of its socket upon hearing Hendrix’s confession. It was the first time she heard of it as she almost forgot about it ever happening. All along she thought it was just an accident. But it turned out that she was really the target!“We already checked her background and we found nothing. There was no crime record on her,” one of the officers was quick to say it. Hendrix clicked his tongue. His annoyance was very evident but he remained polite. “Your investigation team then is not really competent. We have evidence that she was in jail as soon as she was deported from here just a few months ago,” Daisy interjected. “Miss Hermani. Please do not underestimate our team. We are doing our best to do our job–”“Your job is to protect the innocent and capture the criminals. Are you sure you are really doing your job right?” Her cousin retaliated. “Daisy,” Calli gave his sister a warning look. Meanwhile, Margaux was still in shock. Her mind was still proces
The chief officer stepped forward“I can’t assure you about that, Miss Margaux. My team is the one assigned for Mr Mondragon’s case..” he stated. Margaux tilted her head. “Then I will ask for a formal turn over,” she responded. She watched how the chief’s face dimmed. She knew it would not be easy for it was their field of work she was going to meddle with. But she was skeptical. Those people did not seem trustworthy as Daisy had mentioned about the special treatment they gave to Roxanne. “We are not going to stop you. But I am advising you that you should not expect too much,” the officer muttered. Daisy sighed dramatically. “Don't worry, we will make sure that the assigned team for Hendrix’s case will be fair and just,” she said. Margaux did not bother looking at the officers’ reaction and quickly shifted her gaze to Hendrix. Her husband seemed very serious but when their eyes met again, his face suddenly lit up. “Do you want to rest now?” She queried. He was still recoverin
“Are we disturbing you?’ Daisy raised an eyebrow at her. Margaux cleared her throat as she averted her gaze. She wanted to hit Hendrix for taking her in that position but she couldn’t turn her gaze back nor even glance at his direction again. “Take a rest now. I have something to discuss with my family outside,” she said dismissively then stood up. She forgot that her foot was still injured. Hence, she almost stumbled as soon as she stood up. Fortunately, Hendrix was quick and was able to hold her arm before she fell and stumbled on the ground. “Careful!” He said. “Oh my! Are you okay, babe?” Daisy and Dinah immediately went to her and helped her sit back on the edge of the bed. She shut her eyes and heaved a deep breath. “I’m fine,” she answered, although she felt like her sprained foot had completely broken at the moment. “You don’t look okay. Don’t lie to us,” Hendrix said sternly.At that time, he was already up and was sitting straight next to her while staring at her with
“Why are you smiling?” Dinah asked. Instantly, she finally noticed that her lips were stretched so wildly which she immediately wiped off. “Nothing,” she muttered nonchalantly and tried to hasten her steps towards her room. She heard chuckles from her cousins but she just ignored them and pretended that she did not hear anything. Fortunately, the room was only a few steps away. Almost hastily, she opened the door and the faces of her parents along with their other relatives. “I’m going to call the doctor first. Her foot needed a check again,” Daisy said as she followed her inside. “Why are you walking? Where’s your wheelchair?” Felissa scowled. “She doesn’t need it anymore, Aunt Felissa,” Daisy chuckled. She glared at her cousin before she carefully walked to where her mother was and sat beside her. “I’m fine, Mom. I can walk,” she said.“But you can’t walk without our help,” Dinah countered. “You almost fall earlier, if not for Hendrix, your injury might get worsen”She click
“How many times do I have to tell you that I need my coffee the moment I step into this villa? You even have the audacity to sleep in!” Wilma roared as she barged in Margaux's room. Meanwhile, Margaux almost had a heart attack. Her eyes instantly snapped open as she was surprised at the loud voice of her mother-in-law!‘Jeez,’ she thought. Pressing her lips tightly, she hastily got out of the bed and greeted Wilma. However, the old woman gave her a disapproving look which made her lower her head and ran to the kitchen as fast as she could. Hurriedly, she made her mother-in-law her desired coffee. She made it precisely, making sure that there was nothing wrong with it just to please her. “Here's your coffee, Mom. I'm. . .sorry, I–” “Cut it off. Go out and clean the pool. My niece will come and wants to swim later,” said Wilma without looking at her. Margaux carefully placed the coffee on the table in front of Wilma and quickly dashed out of the house. She hasn't washed her face n
Margaux's heart beats wildly upon hearing her husband's voice. It's crazy that they had been married for three years already, yet it's the first time she saw him again face-to-face after their wedding day. It's not that Hendrix doesn't go home. He actually did. However, he only goes home when she's already sleeping and goes out again while she's still sleeping. There were even times that she waited for him only to fall asleep again and wake up; he was already in his room, sleeping soundly. Had she not seen it in her eyes, she would think her husband never comes home at all. “Hendrix!” Margarita quickly ran to Hendrix and pretended like a wounded puppy. “That woman is so mean! She suddenly pushed me for no reason!” She lied.Margaux felt her blood left her face upon seeing Hendrix's expression darkened. “N-no.. I didn't do anything.. I was just going to help–” “Help?! You are so angry and want me to leave, that's why you pushed me!” She shook her head profusely, “No! That's not t
