The Billionaire's Bride Chapter 106
‘I need you home right now’ kept resonating in Avery’s mind even as he dropped the call. He looked at Jacob who was busy surfing through the media, looking for ways to savage the remaining reputation that they had left.“Zoe said she needs me home.” Avery said to Jacob and the latter lifted up his head to attend to him. Avery stood up from his work chair and began to roam around the space between his work table and the window.“She needs you home can mean so many things, Avery.” Jacob said, watching him keenly. “What are you getting worried about?”“She needs me home could also mean that she is tired of the life I am leading with her and wants an out.” Avery responded, watching Jacob who sighed.“If she wants an out, then you have to let her go.”Avery shook his head immediately, knotting his tie that he had loosened when he had been working. When he put on his suit, he turned back to face Jacob.“I cannot live without her, Jacob.” He said. “I have to let her know that I cannot live w

Zoe went round the little church Avery had picked for them in her simple floral white dress. She had pleaded with him that she didn’t want anything extravagant so he had done his best to get something small in the province close to their vacation home in Maples.Everything was finally going on well with her life. She and Avery were now in a place that she could never have imagined and they were going through life together. Sometimes he sends Aaron messages, to assure him that they were still brothers, but as usual, Aaron ignores them. As a couple, the both of them had visited Francis’s grave together in Maples, bringing him flowers and she had assured Francis that she forgave him for the lies and deceit while they were together.Zoe continued to look at the statue and altar in the catholic church where Avery had agreed they got married because he wanted everything to her taste. She was grateful for him and knew for sure that the both of them were going to have a good life together.“Z

"Kiss my neck." Zoe said to him as they went into the house, stumbling on tables, walls, even the bags that they had just returned with from their trip.He gigled like a child, obliging her and kissing not just her neck but her eyes and lips also.''Kiss my ears." He said to her, going in with his back while she followed suit. They had agreed to tell eachother what they wanted while they made love. It made the pleasures more intense and brought understanding between them."Where the hell is the bedroom?" Zoe asked her husband as they continued their journey into their new home. They had not been there before, today was the first day after their return from the honeymoon and Zoe wasn't expecting the house to be that huge. Her mother had sure promised her that she had gotten a moderate one for them.This was surely not moderate, trust Margery Madrigal to always do the extreme.Francis got a hold of her gown and dragged it out of her body while she in turn ripped his shirt, sending butt

Six months later"I want the table that other way." Zoe said to the movers as they got her things arranged into her new home. It's been six months since she laid her husband to rest and six months since she visited the bubbling Cally city. This was where she was brought up. Not in this new house though, but she was born in the city with its busy life and endearing sceneries. After the worst six months of her life, she needed endearing and she definitely craved for the buzz."The setee will be much better there," The man in charge of the interior of her new house said to her, pointing at different directions in the house. "so that the light doesn't interfere with it and you won't have a problem with the stairs too."Zoe considered him for a moment and nodded her head, seeing things eye to eye with him. They were the experts afterall and just like her mother used to say, she had no eye for interior. Speaking of her mother, Margery Madrigal had called her last night, demanding to have

"My what?" Zoe exclaimed as if she had heard wrong. She had only one husband and he was six feet below the ground. Unless Francis reincarnated into this tall devil with amazing hair, then her mother better started talking."What are you saying?"The man smiled at her but remained quiet."Don't sound too shocked Zoe." Margery said. "He is Avery Trent, very popular. You should know him. Trent Airlines is....""I don't mean that type of explaination mother." Zoe said, interrupting her. "I'm asking what you meant by he is my husband.""Because he is." Margery said to her. "You guys are almost married, we just need your signature." Then she stretched her hands towards Avery who gave her a manilla envelope. "In this document. You see?" Margery brought out the marriage certificates and handed it over to her and Zoe couldn't believe her eyes."What are you doing, mum?""Oh, Margery you haven't told her yet?" The man asked, shaking his head. "That's such a shame.""So sorry Avery." Margery apo

They stood there, surprised and Zoe wondered why Avery had decided to kiss her. He said they were going to be having dinner with his mother and siblings, why the hell were there more than three people in the room?The woman who Zoe registered to be Avery's mother walked over with arms wide open. She hugged Avery not paying attention to her."Happy birthday, darling." She said and Zoe turned to look at him.Birthday? Really? And when they had been busy getting to know eachother, he didn't think to tell her today was his birthday?"Thanks mum, You didn't have to do all this. I said I wanted just a small dinner." He complained."Of course we are having a small dinner. They were just paid to pop the balloons." Felicity replied, turning to her other son. "Aaron, off with all of them."In less than a minute, the room was cleared much to Zoe's surprise and his sister, a beautiful girl in her teens walked right to her."Another one?" She asked, eyeing Zoe. "What do you mean by another one? C

There was no answer from Mia and Zoe knew there wasn’t going to be any anytime soon. She turned her head back to the stage to witness Aaron pull his brother from the stage and have the security guards take him to a secret room.Aaron cleared his throat, smiling at the audience with an attempt to manage the situation.“Today is a very special day for Avery and the whole family, so he might just be a little bit on edge.” He began. “Let’s allow him to calm down and he’ll be back on stage in no time. Thank you.”And that was it. That was all he had to say to have the crowd relaxed and murmuring among themselves.Zoe shook her head. He might have been able to get through the guests but she wasn’t buying the rubbish. Especially because Mia and Felicity stood to go into the room where Avery had been taken to. Zoe followed them, wanting to find out just what the hell was wrong with the husband she just signed a document with few hours ago.At the entrance of the door, the guards gave her roo

She had a lot of questions to ask him, a lot of things needed to be explained to her. For starters why the hell was he acting like three different people? And what was the main reason he had agreed to marry her when he owed her mother no favor? Seeing what had transpired at the party made her doubt the real reason for their marriage.But those questions could wait. He was staring at her with a whole new type of look that she could not read.“Of course, I’m going to take off my clothes.” She said to him. “But the question is, will I be doing that in front of you?”Avery shook his head at her and walked over to dry his hair.“What are you? sixteen years old?” He asked her, staring at her from the large mirror in the ridiculously large room. She understood the need for space. God, she loved space but what the hell would they use this whole space for?When she didn't make a move, he pointed at a door. “Bathroom.” He said and pointed at the second. “Dresser and closet. Pick your choice if

Zoe woke up in the morning to an empty bed. She yawned weakly and rolled off her side of the bed, wondering where the hell Avery had gone to so early. The wall clock in her room read twenty minutes past eight which meant he was supposed to still be in the house.She searched the bathroom and the closet but he was nowhere to be found so she made her way down the stairs. The maids she met on her way greeted her differently and with pity as if they knew exactly what she had been through for the past two days. In the dining room, Kara brought a cup of coffee to her which she accepted with gladness in her heart. Finally, she was in the comfort of her home and could eat anything she liked. That wasn’t possible when she was at the mercy of Aaron.Zoe sipped her coffee, watching Kara who was looking at her with keen eyes. She smiled when she lifted the coffee from her lips at the young girl.“Did you miss me?” She asked, making her blush. “Where is Avery by the way? Have you seen him this mo

Avery held Zoe outside the warehouse as Aaron and his crew were being taken into the police van. His fear had known no bounds while driving to save his wife and that was when he realized that he couldn’t live without Zoe. Jacob was right all along. Aaron, his brother had gotten out of hand and the best thing to do to make sure that he doesn’t do more damage is to put him behind bars.He continued to rub Zoe’s shoulders, kissing her temple when Aaron was brought to stand before the both of them in handcuffs. There was a sorry look on his face but Avery was determined not to be swayed by it.“Avery.” Aaron called, trying to meet his gaze. “You are not going to allow them take me to prison, right?” He asked with a shaky voice.Avery scoffed, finally looking him straight into the eye. “Why wouldn’t I allow them take you to prison?” He asked. “You are a criminal and a murderer. People like you deserve to be in jail.”“Come on, Avery.” Aaron called. “Remember our family name is going to be

Zoe laid still on the cold ground completely ignoring the bed Aaron had asked his people to provide for her the previous day. The room was dark but she was staring at the ceiling, wondering how long it would actually take for Avery to forget her just like Aaron had threatened. That was the only thing keeping her alive at the moment because he had promised to kill her when Avery forgets she existed.She remained still in the dark even when the door opened but squinted when the light on the ceiling was turned on directly above her. Aaron walked up to where she was and looked at her but she ignored him.“Just a little while now, Zoe.” He said, drawing the chair close to him and taking a seat on it. “I was at the house yesterday and Avery is still looking frantically for you. Just a little while now before he forgets about you completely.”Zoe scoffed arrogantly at him, her eyes still focused on the ceiling which she could see clearly now all thanks to the light in the room. His words ind

Avery’s head of security was the only one watching the security cameras and he sat up when he saw Avery walk in.“You had just one job.” Avery said, trying not to scream at the top of his lungs. “You had just one job and that was to make sure you kept her safe.”“Mr. Trent, what…” Daniel stammered.“You were supposed to keep her safe and watch her at every time, what the hell were you doing when she left the house?” Avery continued without giving him time to talk.“Your wife went out in a hurry and we tried to follow her, but she was able to escape the cars.” Daniel spoke“What the hell does that even mean?” Avery screamed this time around. “What the hell is your job if she could disappear out from your sight?”“Mr. Trent, she said you knew where she was heading to.” Daniel said, trying to defend himself. “She told us she had your permission to leave the house and we couldn’t argue with that. She is your wife.”“Don’t you dare remind me what she is because I think I am very well aware
The Billionaire's Bride Chapter 101
Avery shut his work laptop closed and headed out of the office. He had had quite a tedious day and wished nothing but to go home and be in the presence of his wife whether she hated him or not. At least anytime he was with Zoe, a lot of thoughts is being blocked from his head. The only thing she worries him about is Aaron but with that at least, there was a way to maneuver it. He just had to seduce her and she would forget totally about Aaron.Thinking about it now, it had been very long since he seduced Zoe and suddenly, he couldn’t wait to get home. Charlotte knocked on his office door and when he gave her leave to enter, she stuck her head and part of her shoulder in. He saw the strap of her handbag on her shoulders and could tell she too was about to leave.“Do you need anything else sir?” Charlotte asked and he shook his head immediately.“Nothing.” He replied. “You can go home Charlotte. Drive carefully.”She bowed at him and closed the door quietly behind her. Avery on the othe

Zoe tilted her head to watch Aaron and the look on his face carefully. Of course, it was him. She thought, sighing with distress. But why had she not thought about it and why the hell would he kidnap her when Avery had warned him not to come anywhere near her? She clenched her fists in anger, hating that he was two steps ahead of her just when she had thought she had the perfect opportunity to get him the punishment he finally deserved.“You keep on surprising me, Aaron.” She said, trying her best to keep herself calm. “You surprise me every single time.”“Of course, Zoe.” He replied, taking off his suit. “I am full of surprises, am I not?”The man who had brought her the glass of water, came in with a wooden chair for Aaron to sit on and he took the seat from him.“Do you not need me, boss?” The weird looking man asked and Aaron shook his head after giving his suit to him.“I don’t.” Aaron replied, smiling. “I will just have a little fun with my sister-in-law here and be on my way.”
The Billionaire's Bride Chapter 99
Zoe relaxed on her seat and crossed her legs again. There was a certain thing she was feeling that she could barely understand. Yes, Aaron had confessed to killing Francis and she had it on her recorder. Then, why wasn’t she on her way to delivering it to the police together with the pictures Amelia had given her? Why was the satisfaction that he was going to surely be behind bars suddenly feeling bittersweet? Was it because she wasn’t sure how Avery would react to it? Or because she was scared Avery would no longer want her in his life if she puts his brother behind bars.The fact that Avery had become such an important part of her life up to the point that she thought about him before making her decision surprised her so much. She just wanted everything to be settled so that the both of them could savage the remaining aspects of their lives and live safely together. Was that the reason why she was stalling?“Did you just confess to murder?” She asked Aaron, who arrogantly shrugged h
