The Billionaire's Contract Wife Chapter 12
Alexander's POVWhat could she be doing here? I thought.I don't remember seeing her name on the invited guests list.She is here just for one thing, and that is to cause trouble! I pulled away from the kiss, and Layla's face was red with embarrassment and she ran towards the restroom.I decided to go meet Amelia."You finally noticed me?" She said, in a sultry voice as I approached her."What are you doing here?" I asked, my voice stern."Huh, wow, this is all I get after what you did to me!" She said, raising her voice.I dragged her out to the open to avoid unnecessary attention."You brought it upon yourself. I owe you no apologies." My face became dark as I tried my best to be domineering. But it wasn't working, it was as though she had outgrown my methods. Her gaze was dark and she emanated a dangerous aura.I squinted my eyes, trying to break through her but I couldn't. This is not the Amelia I had always known?The thought of Layla came to my mind and I felt a strong need t

Layla's POVI opened my eyes slowly. The light made my eyes ache so I quickly closed it.The sun shone in through the curtains.For how long have I been out? I wondered. I stood up slowly and my headache greatly.What happened to me? I tried remembering last night's occurrence.Amelia! My eyes darkened as I remembered.She was the one who made me into this.I recollected my encounter with her last night. I went to the ladies room, and there I saw her, standing with her back resting on the door. She wore an evil glint.I was shocked and fear washed over me. I asked her what she was doing there because non invited guests weren't allowed."I have my ways, bitch." She said, with a smirk."So what do you want from me?" I asked, trying my best to hide my fear. She walked closer to me. With a malicious glint, she raised my chin up with a finger. "I want you out of Alex's life!" Her voice sent shivers down my spine.Her threat was supposed to make me scared and leave Alex, but surprisingl

Layla's POVI screamed out in horror, drawing the attention of the security guards. I was unable to move. The traumatic scene brought back memories of my father's tragic accident.The picture of the wrecked car flashed before my eyes. I saw his lifeless body covered in blood, with his eyes wide open. My head spun and my heart became tight as though it was being squeezed, making it difficult for me to breathe.I closed my eyes and took in deep breaths, trying to calm myself down.The body was carried out, and one of the guards escorted me to my room. Alex laid still on the bed and I drew a finger closer to his nose to confirm if he was still breathing.His gentle breath fanned my finger. "Thank goodness he is still alive." I whispered.I touched his forehead with my palm and it was burning hot.He is running a fever? I fetched a bowl of water from the bathroom, the water spilt on the floor by the bed, but I ignored it, intending to clean it up later.I soaked a small towel into t

Alexander's POVWhen did I become so soft-hearted?Layla's behavior caught me off guard. I had only been rejected once by Zara, and I don't want to experience that again. I broke free from the hug, my expression darkening as I gazed into her eyes. "I don't love you," I said, trying to sound convincing. "I was just being stupid. How could I have fallen for someone like you? I'm sorry for the inconvenience. Let's just get this fake marriage over with." I stormed away, leaving her stunned.I packed my bags and left the hotel, boarding the next flight to Las Vegas. My inside burned with rage. How dare she reject me? I vowed to teach her a lesson, to show her what it really means to live with a devil.Why do I always get rejected by women? How on earth did I fall in love with her? I wondered.My heart wandered to her, and I felt bad for leaving her behind all by herself. What if Amelia returns to hurt her? My heart tightened at the thought.I quickly dialed Larry's number. He picked up th

Alexander's POVThe next morning, I woke up with Zara by my side, feeling guilty but also relieved. This could be the start of something new. I thought.She opened her eyes, smiling at me with her eyes sparkling."Thank you, Alex." She said. "You are a breath of fresh air.""Thanks for coming." I replied. "Stand up and get dressed quickly. You need to leave early."She blinked her eyes, confusion edged on her face."What do you mean? I thought we were going to be together now." She said. "Give me some time to think about it. I have a wife." I said, putting on my clothes, ready to leave.Her face bore dissatisfaction. "Okay then," she got up. The duvet slipped from her body, revealing her bare skin.I took my eyes away immediately, clearing my throat. "Promise me you will come back for me." She said, staring intently at me. Her eyes were teary. My heart ached, as I stared at her. I still can't bear to see her sad. "Let's see how it goes." I said. "Get dressed quickly if you want me

Layla's POVI skipped dinner that night, too angry to eat. I rushed to my room, collapsed on the bed, and stared blankly at the ceiling. "Why am I mad at him?" I asked myself. "I knew what I was getting into. I should be happy he is back to his old self." I comforted myself.Just then, there was a knock at the door. I hesitated, thinking it might be Alex, but as the knocking persisted, I got up to answer it. To my surprise, it was Nora, one of the maids, carrying a tray of food. "Nora, what are you doing here?" I asked, staring at the maid in gratitude.Nora smiled warmly. "I brought you some food, ma'am. You shouldn't go hungry just because of the boss's behavior." She set the tray down on the table and added, "I wish I could stay and keep you company, but I have a lot of work to do." With that, she left the room.I smiled, feeling a surge of appreciation for Nora's kindness. Nora was the only staff member who genuinely cared for me, and I cherish our friendship.I sat down to enjoy

Alexander's POVImmediately Layla left the study this morning, I picked my phone and called one of the bodyguards."Lucas, keep an eye on Layla. Don't let her know you are following her and Don't let any harm come to her, and also keep me updated. Do you hear me?" I instructed."Yes, sir!" Lucas responded promptly. After I hung the call, I slammed my head on the table, breathing a sigh. "I can't believe I am still bothered about her safety." I muttered to myself."I tried to focus on my work, but my mind kept drifting back to Layla. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't shake her from my thoughts. Her face seemed to appear everywhere I looked. "I'm going crazy!" I exclaimed in frustration.I headed downstairs to clear my head with a drink, but my phone buzzed with an urgent call from Lucas. "Boss, your wife is in danger," he warned, his voice low and serious. "Text me the location." I removed, hanging up the call.Without hesitation, I jumped in my car and sped to the store. "Why d

Layla's POVI adjusted my designer gown, feeling like a princess for the night. Alex had sent me to represent him at the charity gala, as he had other important matters to attend to.What was he thinking? I thought. Sending me to a place like this on my own! I am his wife, after all.I smiled as I remembered his words to me before I entered the car. "You are brave and smart, and I love you." He said, and he gave me a gentle kiss.I sipped my champagne as I mingled with the guests. I noticed a man staring at me from across the room. He was handsome, but his eyes seemed intense. I shrugged it off, focusing on the evening's purpose. I was undoubtedly the best dressed. Alex has an exceptional taste. He had adorned me in the finest attire, a stunning black flow gown, that cost a lot of money. I dare not dwell on the price, the extravagant cost was mind blowing!Later, I saw Amelia approaching me with a sly smile. Why is she always everywhere? I wondered."Layla, darling, you look stunni

I wondered, with a smirk on my face. “I know I have.” I replied.Suddenly, one of our own security guards pulled a gun on us“Seriously, Jeff?” I raised an eyebrow. “You're joining the dark side?”Larry disarmed the traitor. “Guess we have a mole.”I glared at the guard. “You're fired.

Alexander's POVTears streamed down my face as I heard Layla's whispering into my ears.“I will stand by you, Alex. Even if you decide to push me away.”My heart melted.I was selfish. I shouldn't have desired a family. It was too much for me to desire happiness with my family.I pretended to sleep, Layla's words echoing in my mind. She deserved better than a life filled with hospital visits and constant worry. But I couldn't bear the thought of losing her.As we arrived home, Layla helped me to my room, her silence a testament to her concern. I knew she must have done research on Hemophilia A, trying to understand the reality we faced.It wasn't as bad as she supposed. I have been taking care of myself since I was young. I let her think I was asleep, but I watched her through slightly opened eyes. Her determination and love were a healing to my soul.The next few days passed in a blur.

Layla's POVI slammed the door shut, my heart racing with anger and concern. Why did Alexander keep secrets from me? What could be so bad that he couldn't share it with me? I paced back and forth in the guest room, trying to calm down.I couldn't believe he thought I would leave him over some illness. Did he really think so little of me? I stopped pacing and took a deep breath. No, Alexander wouldn't think that. There must be more to it.I walked over to the bed and sat down, my mind racing. What could this illness be? Is it contagious? Is that why he's keeping it a secret?Just as I was lost in thought, I heard a faint noise coming from Alexander's room. I got up and walked towards the door, listening closely. It sounded like...shattering glass?My heart skipped a beat. I quickly opened the door and rushed to Alexander's room. “Alexander!” I exclaimed.He was sitting on the bed, his hand bleeding profusely. Glass shards were scattered all around him. I rushed to his side. “Oh my

Had she just abandoned me?Julian and Sophia's laughter filled the air as I slumped on the floor, tears streaming down my face.Layla's betrayal felt like a dagger to my heart.“Give up, friend,” Julian whispered in my ear.Anger boiled within me. I grabbed Julian's neck, my hands tightening around it.“You scumbag!” I growled.Sophia rushed over to stop me, but she was sent flying in the air with just a light kick. “Jackass,” Julian cursed, his voice cracked.“Kill me, you bastard,” he spat.I glared at him, strangling him. His eyes turned red, and his face flushed.“She would have found out anyway,” Julian whispered.“I would have taken the secret to my grave if you hadn't told her!” I growled.Here are the sentences rewritten with simpler grammar:“Leave him alone!” Sophia yelled, crawling towards us. She seemed to have broken some bones because she couldn't stand. “I'll take pictures and you'll be trendi

Layla's POVI watched Alex stride across the room, his eyes locked on a man wearing a black tuxedo. He looks weird in it.“Stay away from Layla,” Alex warned.The ugly man smirked. “Why are you so tense, Alex? I never said I'd hurt your wife.”Alex's jaw clenched. “Don't play games with me, Julian.”I felt a shiver run down my spine.“Alex, meet my associate, Sophia,” Julian said.Who was this Sophia? She looked suspicious.Sophia's eyes locked on Alex. Lust burning in them.“Mr. King, you're more handsome in person.”I felt my inside burn with anger.Alex slapped her hand off. “What do you want?” he demanded.Sophia smiled. “We'll discuss that soon.” She whispered something into Alex's ears that I couldn't catch.As they vanished into the crowd, I rushed to Alex's side. “Who is she?” I asked.Alex's eyes narrowed. “Julian's associate. Don't worry.”But I sensed tension in his voice. “Alex, what's going on?”He hesitated. “Julian's not giving up.”My heart skipped a beat. “What else
