The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 28. Unplanned trip
Elena's POV Wait, what?A vacation? No,no, no, no, no!Nothing is going according to my plan anymore. Nana was supposed to tell me I'm free to do whatever I want, not book us a spot at some resort.When she came to that conclusion I felt my stomach knot into a twist. I looked at Alex expectant this time.But he didn't say anything or object to it. Why? Was this his plan all along? Did they plan this in order to sabotage my plan?I paced around the room clearly agitated and nervous about the vacation. Alex on the other hand was just sitting down there staring at his phone.I paused and looked at him. He wasn't even bothered or showing any sign of objections. “ Alex” I called sharply, walking towards him.He didn't even bother looking up.“ You knew about this all along, didn't you?” I asked. “ You knew that Nana would send us to some vacation after all this right?” I interrogated, but he didn't bulge so I snatched his phone away from him.“ You'll look at me and answer-”“ And why sh
Last Updated : 2024-12-10The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 29. Evergreen Resort
Elena POV Morning soon came and I was all set for one hell of a vacation. Nana stood on the porch all smiles and cheerfully waving at us like this wasn't the worst idea she ever had.“ Have fun my darling and Alex,” she called out, her tone dripping from excitement. “ Make sure you take care of her. I'll be watching you.”Alex smirked, giving her a thumbs up. “ of course, I'll take care of her”I snorted under my breath. Yeah, right. Nick stood awkwardly beside her, his hands shoved in his pocket. I refuse to even glance at him. He hasn't apologized yet. “ Bye, Nana,” I said, forcing a half-hearted smile. “ Bye, sweetheart, call me if you need to set him straight,” she replied, raising her cane. “ Enjoy yourself”Enjoy myself? Was she serious? I was far from enjoying myself now, knowing I would be alone with him for two whole weeks instead of getting my life back on track.I entered the car, followed by Alex, taking over the wheels, and we zoomed off.The ride to the resort felt
Last Updated : 2024-12-11The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 30. Curse or a blessing
Elena POV “What are you doing out here?” I titled my head back to see Alex, standing with a cardigan and pants. Apparently he must have changed from his formal attire to this when I was deep in thought. “ Nothing that concerns you. Or is it a crime now to come to the balcony?” I asked , folding my hands in front of my chest. “ You didn't have to be rude, I was just asking a harmless question” he responded, and I immediately felt bad for what I said. I was just tired, exhausted, angry and sorry for myself at the same time. Everything just seems too much for me and it makes me question my intelligence and decisions. From that very day Pete had betrayed me, everything had gone wrong in my life. Absolutely everything, and the worst part is that I'm stuck with this him, Alex Donovan, who is very obsessed with keeping me safe. The funniest and worst part of all is that I don't even know why he's keeping me safe or what he's keeping me safe from. He won't tell me even if I asked
Last Updated : 2024-12-13The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 31. Could he be the one?
Elena's POV We both looked at each other before rolling my eyes. “ You just had to be a baby” I said, heading to the door and he shrugged.I opened the door to see a blonde bob haired lady in her late 20’s or so, smiling at me. She wore a white t-shirt and black skirt with a green jacket.“ Mrs Donovan?” She asked, still smiling brightly. I nodded smiling back at her. “ You have a reservation this night by 7pm in our restaurant tonight”I looked at Alex raising a question eyebrow at him but he didn't seem to have a clue on what she was saying so I turned back to her and smiled of course.If Alex didn't reserve the table and I obviously didn't, that means it would be no one other than Nana who did.“ Of course we'll be there, thank you” I responded, closing the door shut.I sighed and closed my eyes as I take a deep breath, because I had earlier planned that I wouldn't be stepping out of this room to anywhere throughout our stay here.“ We have a reservation at the evergreen restauran
Last Updated : 2024-12-15The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 32. A deal with the devil.
Elena POV I took a deep breath calming myself down before sitting down Two cups of coffee and eggs with bacon were served in front of us on a white and emerald plate. “ Did something happen here earlier?” He asked, still clearly curious as to why he found me outside. I didn't want him to know about my life or my failed relationship with Pete or it would make me look more vulnerable, and vulnerability was the last feeling I wanted him to see. I stared down at my plate of bacon , picking up my fork, digging in, completely ignoring his question. I could feel his eyes gorging at my face, searching for any answer but I wasn't ready to give him one. He was the least of my worries now, Pete was on the loose and I was this close to finding him if he didn't interrupt me. I was very sure it was him earlier because I would never forget those back hairlines or his shoulder. Literally everything about him I remember and would never forget so I was very sure it was him. But what was
Last Updated : 2024-12-17The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 33. Thought I had him
Elena POV That son of a bitch. I know he would be here and definitely together with his goddess, that he left me for.How dare he? How dare he spend my money on some cheap slut and I have to suffer for everything. And here I was sulking and missing his sorry ass while he was out there having fun, with my money.If not for him I wouldn't be in this situation at all. The night I was drunk and signed that marriage certificate, that could have been our wedding night.None of this would have happened. We would have been on the sofa or at the fireplace just cuddling while drinking the wine I got or we could have been watching a movie.He just had to be so insensitive and steal from me to please those stupid bitches. It has to be him. The neck, the shoulders, the shape of his head, his walking step, everything had to be him.If it was him and I get to see him face to face, I have a lot to tell him from my mind.The sound of the door opening startled me a little, bringing me back to real

~Elena~ “ You really have to learn how to watch where you're goin miss” I sighed composing myself. “ I'm okay, thank you” , turning to see an unknown but very handsome young man, standing behind me. His black jet hair shining with the aid of the street lamp light and his physique, oh my god, I could tell from the blue flowered shirt that was slightly ajar and he was putting on, that he had a very nice body. At first I was so lost in those beautiful dark eyes that I didn't realise I had been staring at him for a while. I had completely forgotten my frustration. “ Do I have something on my face?” He asked, in a low hoarse tone that made my stomach tingle, bringing me back to reality. “ Uhm.. so sorry I…I ummm…thank you. I'm really sorry” I apologised again, stumbling over my words as I tried to regain my composure. His lips curled up into a faint smirk, and I could tell he was amused by my flustered state. “Don’t worry about it,” he said smoothly, stepping back slightly to gi

The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 64 - Avoiding him was a waste of time.
Elena POV “ Madam?” The maid called softly at the other side of the door.I stood up without responding and walked towards the door. “ Yes?”I opened it to reveal the maid with a trolley and on it the exact same food I saw in Alex's study.“ What is all this?” I asked, my eye brow knitting in confusion“ Mr Alex said to bring this to you as he noticed you've been in your room and probably haven't had anything yet to eat.” She said with a smile on her face.“ and I have microwaved it, ma’am”"This is ridiculous," I muttered under my breath, staring at the food for a while before stepping aside for her to take it inside the room.I sat in front of the food not knowing whether to eat or not. Not like there's something wrong with the food.As a matter of fact I was so famished but for what reason, because I didn't want to face the woman that I sat in her position with.I was ashamed of myself even after knowing he had a wife. I still stayed and allowed myself to fall for him.No.It's al
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 63 - We're both adults.
Elena POV Silence spread throughout the room like wildfire. It took a while before I could look up at Alex again.I looked at him waiting, searching and anticipating his reaction. He just tilted his head back, the before amusement leaving his eyes and replaced with a sudden chill that could suppress me whole.I couldn't tell from his reaction what he was thinking. He just looked at me with a calm expressionless face like the words I said didn't border him.I steadied my nerves, biting my lips “ last night…”“ What happened last night?” He asked, his voice echoing like a beating drum.“ Last night we..” I paused, coming to a realisation. “ Mr Alex, I don't need to remind you of what occured between us last night. It was a mistake that won't happen again”I tried sounding as nonchalant as possible even though inside me was raging for no apparent reason. It's not like we did something intense yesterday night.We're adults, aren't we?I could see the muscle in his jaw tick, but he remain
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 62 - An unplanned mistake
Elena's POV For the rest of the day I stayed in my room, not wanting to come face to face with his wife.I'm sure she must have heard of me taking her position and must have some disdainful thoughts towards me but that's less of my worries right now.Infact I shouldn't be even thinking about it too much. All I should do now is secure my exit from this place so I won't get hurt too much.Whatever happened between me and Alex was far from anything meaningful. It was nothing. A mistake that shouldn't have happened. Normally I thought that him showing some care after that incident at the club would account that he has feelings for me or the night that he held me shielding me from the horrifying sounds of thunder, I thought he might have some feelings for me.Whether he did or didn't, it doesn't matter. Nothing matters now that his real wife is back with his child.Everything we've shared, all memories, would be gone within a twinkle of an eye.I wasn't from his world but I came into it
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 61 - Alex's long lost wife
Elena POV The next morning, a light tickling sensation on my face stirred me from sleep. Without opening my eyes, I instinctively swatted at it, unwilling to wake up just yet. A comforting warmth surrounded me, unfamiliar yet oddly familiar, pulling me deeper into its embrace. It was so soothing that I instinctively snuggled closer, seeking more of it. As I nestled into the warmth, a strong hand suddenly wrapped around me, pulling me in completely. My cheek rested against a firm, warm surface, and curiosity made my fingers trail over it absentmindedly—until a deep, rumbling hum cut through the silence. “ Haven't had enough, cupcakes?” My eyes flew open, and my body went rigid. I was lying on top of Alex's shirtless chest! What the hell? Realization hit me like a shockwave, and I immediately tried to pull away. But before I could move, his arms tightened around me, holding me in place. He bent his head slightly, his lips brushing against my collarbone, sending an unexpecte
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 60. Something to regret
Elena POV But for all I know he should be with her—the woman who had come back after all these years. Instead, he was standing here, drunk and falling apart in my arms.I swallowed back the emotions threatening to rise. Now wasn’t the time for questions.With great effort, I guided him toward my bed, lowering him onto the edge. He groaned, rubbing a hand over his face. His normally sharp, unreadable eyes were clouded, his expression worn.He lies lazily, losing his tie, his big slender hand grasping his forehead as he tries to soothe the impact of the alcohol. I stared at him for some seconds before inhaling and exhaling sharply.His hair that was usually perfect l Hel was now in his array and his buttons were undone.“I’ll get you some water,” I said, quickly turning toward the nightstand.Before I could take a step, his fingers wrapped around my wrist, pulling me into a sudden embrace.The sudden pull made me hot my back softly but suddenly on the bed before I could blink an eye.H
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 59. His lost wife returns
Elena POV I leaned against the railings of the balcony, letting out a soft breath and staring at the clear night sky.My mind drifted to everything that had happened since the day I was left on the altar. I was far from wishing for a calm and peaceful life now.The only thing I could do to help myself was survive, especially from Catherine. Wonder what trouble she'd cause next.As I was lost in thought, a deep familiar voice startled me back to reality. “ well that was quite a show”I turned to find Nick standing there, arms crossed, an amused look in his eyes.I chuckled, shaking my head “ you saw?” “ Saw it? I practically want to frame it and hang it on the wall” he grinned, “ I thought the old Catherine I knew in school was gone but after this, I definitely know she's buried somewhere there.”I sighed, “ I allowed her the first time to have her way but won't allow for a second or third time” Nick's eyes softened, grabbing my cheek “ good, you shouldn't let anyone trample over yo
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 58. I know the game too
Elena POV The grand hail was lit up in dazzling golden lights, laughter and chatter filling the air as Alex and I walked hand in hand locked in.I smiled softly not wanting to arouse any suspicion as our engagement has been announced to the public even though grandma has agreed to wait, the news still circulated the internet.I could fill all the gaze on me as I strode to Nana who was standing with two other elderlies of her caliber. All dressed in exotic clothing.From their appearance you could tell they were wealthy and held authority.Nana smiled, holding out her hands as I walked close. I sealed the hug smiling back at her." Happy birthday, Nana" I said hesitantly, giving her the emerald necklaces I had gotten for her a while ago.Honestly I was skeptical about giving her because the necklace looked cheap but either way if she didn't like it I could prepare something else for her." Oh my, look" she opened it showing the two guests beside her. " My granddaughter-in-law got this
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 57. Friend or lover
Elena POV I turned my eyes meeting those familiar grey eyes boring into mine, his lips curling into a smirk.I rolled my eyes, not wanting to indulge or talk to him since he's been busy with his business lately. Not to talk of his attitude towards me changing immediately we got home.“ What do you want?” I asked blankly.“ Nothing much”“ Okay then, if you would excuse me I need to rest,” I quickly said, turning on my heels. But stopped mid way, suddenly remembering something. I turned to him.“ Knowing your connection and how fast news travels these days, I'm sure you are aware of the little incident that happened at the mall today?” I asked.Looking at his expression, it seems he did, so I continued without waiting for a reply “ I apologise for the incident if it affected you in any way. But might I remind you to please caution your…” not knowing how to address her, whether a friend or lover, either way I just left it hanging “ seeing how close you two are I think it would do us a
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 56. Knowing my place

The center of all attention.Nobody paid yield to me, a nobody. They only attended to her and left me like I didn't exist at all.Not like I'd care.I wonder how she still has the energy to still carry on shopping like she was made for it cause I was already tired.My legs ached from all the go here and there. Although she tagged me along I knew I didn't belong in this world. It wasn't my speciality.Just as finally thought this misery was about to end as we were about to exit the jewellery store, a voice stopped us." Excuse me, miss," the store attendant dressed in a crisp white shirt and black short skirt approached me.I frowned, " yes?"The woman crossed her arms, her gaze sharp. " We need to check your bag, miss"My brow furrowed. " Why?"The security guard beside her stepped closer "
