The 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

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

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

~Alex~ Was it worth it ? Even though Nana had threatened me earlier that if I ruined this, she was going to pluck out my livers. She always threatens me, always with death but this one seemed quite serious, just like when she threatened to take away my inheritance.Nana was the type of person not to like many people or even any human. Something we have in common.The only time I had seen her this lively and enthusiastic about anything was when my father was still alive.When everything was still nice and okay in the family. When I was just a little naive boy that had both his parents' love.Funny how just one night everything went down the drain, left and abandoned at such a young age to cater for myself.She’d already rejected countless women I brought home. None of them were ever enough. Even Catherine, who I knew Nana detested, wasn’t spared her judgment.Nana had been the one to push for this marriage. And now, I could feel the disappointment hanging over me like a curse.I swi
Last Updated : 2024-12-31The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 36. Nowhere to be found
~Elena~I woke up to the sunlight hitting my face through the curtains, warm and soft. I stretched, still half asleep and reached out for Alex's side of the bed.Empty I frowned, running my hands over his bed space with my eyes still lazily closed. It was cold, like he didn't lay there last night.But if he didn't come home last night, where would he go? I dozed off last night while waiting for him. Sitting up I glanced around the room, everything seemed normal, nothing seemed out of place except for the fact that Alex was nowhere to be found.Weird.I got out of bed, rubbing my eyes as I walked to the bathroom to check if he was there, but he wasn't. I checked the closet and his clothes were still there.Where could he have gone since last night? Was he still annoyed that I shouted at him out of anger?Oh come on, he's been such a baby if it's because of that. I mean I was annoyed he should have confronted me not hid or has he left me here.No, no, no. My heart raced anxiously, whi
Last Updated : 2025-01-01The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 37 . Another mistake in the club
Elena POV “ Lucas!? How did you get my phone number” I asked, a little bit surprised.“ I have my ways” I stared at the screen, the soft glow illuminating my furrowed brows. The fuck. This wasn’t normal. I never gave him my number. He didn’t even ask for it. How the hell did he—“This is starting to get creepy,” I muttered under my breath.“Creepy?” His voice hummed with amusement, as if he found the idea of unsettling me entertaining. “Come on, Elena. Don’t be so dramatic.”I exhaled slowly, shifting on the edge of my bed “ okay, what do you want?” I asked, trying to keep the irritation from creeping into my voice.“I wanted to talk to you” he said plainly, making doubts to invade my thoughts.If I'm not mistaken this was an act of stalking someone because why would he call me at this hour of the day to just talk, even though he got my contact details without my consent. But why? There's definitely something up with him. “ You just wanted to talk?” I asked curiously “ Lucas, I-”

Elena POV I took my phone dashing out of the house so pissed that the death glares I gave Mike and James, the two body guards, didn't dare to stop me.As soon as I was out of that bombshell I sat down near a fountain at the park still fuming with anger that the reason wasn't best known to me.“ How dare he” I said, talking to myself, “ darling?” I huffed repeating what the unknown person said “ more like devil”He couldn't even excuse himself before taking the call, answering it in front of me like it was nothing.Of course, what was I annoyed about? It was nothing after all. I'm so stupid to think this would be something between us. Maybe we could have grown something between us.Argh, what am I saying? Jeez, I knew from the beginning that whatever was between us would always be a business proposal, it's not like he would even think of me in that direction.I mean, look at me, I'm broke with nothing to claim account for, I can't even match his status one bit or even be as prettier a
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 50. From another universe
Elena POV After our breakfast, Alex went to the balcony to answer a business call while I cleaned up the dishes. Once I was through with the dishes I decided to take a nap. As I walked towards the room I glanced back at Alex, his back facing me, the sun shining on him like it was a stage show.His broad shoulders and godly figure attracted me the most. I bit my lower lips slightly, unconsciously staring at every motion he made while still on the call.In my eyes everything he did was in slow motion like in those movies where a mysteric being from another universe, every effect it made was what I was seeing.His hair was rough and unstyled, bare chest with six or eight packs I couldn't care less, with his lower body covered in joggers.I exhaled unknowingly. He looked like a damn demi god. I leaned on the handrail of the staircase daydreaming and smiling sheepishly into nothing.I heard a faint distant voice calling out my name and couldn't seem to fathom where the distant voice cam
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 49. The perfect breakfast
Elena POV I stood in front of the counter, slicing my veggies for the omelet. I wonder if Alex would also want one. This looked familiar, oh yes, I used to make this for Pete back in those times when I was stupidly in love. I chuckled, crazy, cause after taking my time to make him breakfast every morning he skips it and when he doesn't he finds fault in it.It's either it wasn't cooked properly or it doesn't have enough salt or veggies. This made me so unconfident about my cooking skills.Not knowing he was sleeping around with another woman only for me to be cooking for him and sheltering him. Wasn't I ever enough for him? Does our relationship, the time we spent together, didn't they mean anything to him before he thought of leaving me for that blondie?I wonder if I was ever going to find him and get my father's house back? So many questions that I kept asking myself and haven't been answered yet.And what scares me the most are these tingling feelings I feel towards Alex that
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 48. Define crazy
Elena's POV I woke up feeling all wasted. My head felt like tons of bricks were thrown on it.“ Argh” I exclaimed, sitting up slowly as I held my head. I rubbed my temples thinking it would ease the pain, my eyes darting around till I spotted Alex half naked with his shirts off on the bed.My eyes widened, my throat hinged, my chest pounding as I imagined all the fantasies that must have happened last night.Suddenly I screamed, grabbing the pillow beside me and chucked it at his head.“Alex!”“Hmmm” Alex groaned, tugging at the pillow like it was an annoying flu and shifting uncomfortably to face me. “ Why can't you just let me sleep this morning?” he complained, his deep voice echoed and if I wasn't freaking out I would have found it attractive.First off, “ Why are you here?” I asked tugging him to open his eyes. “ omg did we?”“ You don't remember last night?” He asked, looking at me.I clutch my blanket tightly to my chest trying to make sense of the situation.My clothes were

Alex POV Running around the streets like a lunatic following a lunatic. If any paparazzi saw this right now, I could be headlined Alexander Donovan caught running with his drunk wife in the night or even worse.“ Elena!” I shouted her name “ stop right there” but she didn't. It was as if she was aiming for a particular destination I wasn't sure about. If I had known, I would have taken the car or better still never have brought her out for a drink and let her drink this much.Suddenly, after what seemed to be an endless race finally stopped.I bent to catch my breath before walking to her. As I walked over to her now on the floor sleeping, I noticed my car just a few metres away from where we were.“ What the fuck!”Wait, did she just make me race with her all round just to end up back at the same place?I sighed, gritting my teeth as I looked at the already asleep Elena on the cold concrete floor.“ Come on, let's get you home”I carried her in one lift and soon got to the car and
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 46. Result of getting drunk
Elena POV His phone vibrated in his pocket interrupting him. He turned to pick it up. “ What!?” he exclaimed aloud. “ Listen,” he looked back at me then forward which made me curious because he stepped a foot further from me. I wonder why he always hide himself from everybody like he had some secret that he enclosed and kept away from anyone and it would be hard to pry into his life. The noise of the children and excitement clouded what he was saying on the phone and I couldn't hear anything. A few minutes passed and he was done with this mysterious call. He walked back to me like nothing happened. “ What was it?” I asked as he was now near me. “ It was nothing, just Nick having trouble with the company” he answered. “Okay” I nodded, not wanting it to seem like I'm interested in anything related to him. “ Ok, so, do you want to join me at the bar?” A few drinks wouldn't hurt at all. In fact I needed it to clear my head from everything that had happened in these weeks.
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 45. His vulnerable side
Elena's POV The line for the rides was long, and Alex stood next to me, hands stuffed in his pockets, looking around like he was trying to figure out what to do with himself.“So,” he said after a while, his tone casual. “When’s the last time you did something like this?”I crossed my arms and looked ahead at the people waiting. “I don’t know. Maybe when I was a kid.”He nodded like that made sense. “Same. My parents didn’t really do amusement parks.”I turned to him, caught off guard by how real he sounded. “And now you’re here? Why?”He shrugged, a small grin forming. “Thought it’d be fun. And maybe you’d like it.”I didn’t know how to respond to that, so I didn’t. We just stood there quietly until it was finally our turn to get on the roller coaster.The attendant checked the harness on me, and we both entered the carbin. The attendant closed the door and the ride started, climbing higher and higher. My heart was in my throat as I stared down at how far up we were going.I glance
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 44. A ride to the park
Alex POV “ Hey” I said softly.She looked up at me, her eyes tired for some reason. “ Hey”I walked over, my left hand in my pocket while the other loosened my tie, I gulped, “ Would you like to go out with me?”She blinked, confused. “What?”“To the amusement park,” I said quickly. “Just… a friendly date. We could go on the rides and just have fun. Normal things, nothing more.”She hesitated, biting her lip. “ Why should I do that? ”she asked.“ I just want us to get along well that's all” I said, trying to sound convincing. “ You can't stay at home and not go out. But if you don't want to it's fine”She looked at me for a few seconds as if trying to measure the possible danger if she'd go out with me.“Okay,” she whispered, after what seemed like eternity.“Okay,” I said, smiling a little.It wasn’t much, but it was a start._______________________________________Elena POV I watched Alex as he loosened his tie, looking less like the icy CEO I was used to and more…human. He seemed
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 43. Elena's meltdown
Elena POV My heart was pounding very fast, I looked around feeling a little bit suffocated, my body heavy as I felt goosebumps on my skin. My hand racked my hair as I held my head feeling headache building up. He had left me again. He promised, he promised he wouldn't leave me alone and now he had. Lucas, Lucas what if he finds me here, what if he comes to get me and do those stuff he did to me that night. Tears stinging my eyes as I felt my chest become heavy. I need to get out of here, I need to leave this place before he finds me. I rushed to the door, opening it. Two black men in suits, one with dark sunglasses on and the other without one. They both turned to my direction “ Ma’am please get inside” the one with glasses said, approaching me. I stepped back looking at them frantically. Who were they? Are they here to take me back to Lucas? No, I will not surrender to them “ I will not” I shouted rushing past them but his second grabbed me while I struggled to release m
