The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 35. Trouble in paradise
~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~“ Urgh” I hissed. He was now close to me caressing my cheeks and sniffing me up like a maniac. “ Why are you doing this Lucas?” I said, struggling to hide the pain in my voice.He stopped looking at me , his eyes now dark. “ I have been wanting to do this ever since I met you at the garden looking all weak and fragile.” He touched my cheeks and I shook my head now disgusted. I shouldn't have come here , I shouldn't have. But I wouldn't let the alcohol nor Lucas get through me.I have made a mistake and now I have to face it atleast find a way to get out of this hell. “ You shouldn't have brought me here, my husband will kill you when he finds out,” I said, hoping that could put enough scare into him.But he chuckled, grabbing my jaw aggressively. “ Do you think I care about some husband that abandoned you here?” he paused as if expecting an answer.“ No, I would do things to you that you've never imagined a man would do to you.” And with that he threw me like some bag of unw
Last Updated : 2025-01-04The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 39. Breaking point
Elena POV The shout cut through the air like a bolt of lightning, and for the briefest of moments, I felt a wave of relief wash over me. I turned my head, my vision still blurry, and there stood Alex, I could see the fury in his face. Those grey eyes, usually so cold and composed, were now filled with rage, pure, unfiltered rage burning that radiates from his entire body.Lucas, startled, took a step back, he's holding on to me loosening and I quickly sat up, leaning on the edge of the couch. Alex didn’t give him a chance to react. He charged forward, grabbing Lucas by the collar and shoving him across the room, sending him crashing into the wall with a sickening thud.“Touch her again, and I swear I’ll make you regret it,” Alex growled, his voice dripping with menace.Lucas coughed, trying to regain his composure when Alex pulled him up again this time pinning him against the wall like his weight was nothing. I could barely see what was happening now, my body trembling with the s
Last Updated : 2025-01-06The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 40. When fear lingers
Elena POV “ No, no, please leave me alone” I shouted , pulling the blanket tightly around me like a shield.My heart pounded in my chest and my breath hitched like I was gasping for air. Yesterday's event played uncontrollably in my head and I feared he was still somewhere in this room, hiding in the corners, looking at me.My eyes wandered around trying to catch sight of Lucas, sweat dripping from my forehead as the door slammed open revealing Alex.“ You're awake” he said, rushing towards me, his eyes wide and frantic.He rushed towards me, kneeling beside the bed. His hands found mine but I shoved them away.“ Don't touch me” I said, my voice cracked, and I couldn't tell if it was fear or anger.“ Elena look at me,” he said softly, cupping my cheeks and turning them to look up at him. “ It's me. You're safe now”I blinked my eyes fast as tears threatened to spill out exhaling sharply. I allowed him to pull me against his chest, sinking into his embrace and didn't want to let go.

Elena POV I took my brush and applied toothpaste to it while still staring at the mirror. I dug it into my mouth, scrubbing and making sure that his saliva wasn't there anymore. That my mouth was clean from his.I didn't care if the lips where he bit was bleeding once again, I just wanted my mouth clean and void from his.I didn't stop there, I took off my clothes taking a sponge and soap making sure to scrub every inch of my body to equally get rid of his touch.Again, I didn't care if I scrubbed my skin too hard till it reddened, everywhere, everything, every memory of last night, I must make sure I had gotten rid of it.And when I was finally satisfied, I bent down letting the cold water from the shower run down my body, washing away every bit of Lucas from my body.Tears fell from my eyes uncontrollably, as I hugged my knees. It was all over. No one was coming to get me, I am safe. No one was coming to get me, no one. I tried reassuring myself. My body shivered due to the long
Last Updated : 2025-01-09The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 42. Unmistaken resemblance
Elena POV I shifted uncomfortably, trying to stand. “Alex, let me go.”His grip only tightened. “No.”“ Alex let me go” I insisted but he held me firmly on his lap.I couldn't struggle with him for too long. The more I struggled the more my body weakened and his grip on me got stronger.“ No I will not,” he said after I had calmed down a little.“Alex—”“I said no,” he repeated, his tone hardening. “You’re not leaving this spot until you eat something.”I stilled for a moment, catching my breath as the fight drained from my body. His warmth pressed against me, and for reasons I couldn’t explain, the tension in my shoulders began to unravel just slightly.After a few quiet seconds, I heard him sigh, his breath brushing against my neck.“Please,” he muttered, his tone softer this time, but it still held this sharp edge to his word.I swallowed hard, staring at the untouched soup still sitting on the tray.Today, I have heard him mistakenly say sorry and beg me.

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
Elena POV As we walked through every section of the mall, it was clear who the star of the day was.Catherine Stones -The fairy Princess of Las Vegas. Always perfect. Always radiant and flawless. 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 "
