The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife Seeking trouble
Vespera glared at Alaric, her eyes burning with anger. "You jerk!" she spat.Alaric leaned against the doorframe, a pained smile on his face. "I'm not a jerk. Can you just hear me out?"Vespera stared at him, her gaze cold and distant. "Fine. Talk."Alaric looked down at his feet. "There's nothing going on between Elowen and me. I swear.""Ha!" Vespera scoffed, turning to leave.Alaric grabbed her arm. "She just twisted her ankle that day. I only took her to the hospital. I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to get the wrong idea. Nothing happened!"Vespera turned back to face him, a bitter smile on her lips. "Oh sure, you lied to me because she twisted her ankle. What's next? She'll get sick, need more favors. How many more lies are you going to tell me?""Ves!" Alaric looked at her desperately. "You know I'm not that kind of guy!""I'm sorry, Alaric, but I don't know that," Vespera said, staring him straight in the eye. "All I know is what everyone in this city knows - that y
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife For my girlfriend
The sales associate immediately crouched down to pick up the fallen coat, hoping to check for any damage or stains. But as she tugged on it, Elowen's stiletto heel caught on the collar. With a sickening rip, the delicate lace tore in two. The associate froze, stunned.Before she could react, Elowen smoothly shifted her foot away. Evelyn, feigning concern, exclaimed, "Oh no, what happened?"Then, as if by accident, she let her cup of coffee slip from her hand. It splashed across the coat, instantly staining the fabric. The sales associate nearly burst into tears – the garment was ruined beyond repair!Carefully gathering up the coat, she stammered, "Miss, you've damaged the item. You'll need to pay for it...""Pay?" Evelyn scoffed. "For what? This cheap thing? Honestly, I think it looks better this way!"Elowen chimed in with a smirk, "Come on, you tore it yourself. And that coffee? That's on you guys. Why should we pay for anything?"Evelyn puffed up with pride. "Do you know who this
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife Capitulate
Vespera glanced at Alaric, who smiled and asked before she could speak, "What were they saying? That your design isn't good? The fabric's uncomfortable?"Vespera nodded. "Yeah."Alaric turned to Evelyn. "I heard from my assistant that you auditioned for next year's commercial?""Oh, um, yes..." Evelyn stammered.Alaric smirked. "Well, you don't need to come anymore.""What? Why?" Evelyn's eyes widened. She had fought hard for this audition opportunity. It was supposed to be her stepping stone to the next level in her career. How could it be canceled just like that?Alaric gave her a cold look. "Because you won't pass. You won't even make it through Skyline's front door."Evelyn's face flushed red. She had never been humiliated like this before. All her life, she had been the apple of her family's eye. The entire Pendleton clan took pride in her. After entering the entertainment industry, she had quickly risen to become an A-list star. No one had ever dared to disrespect her. But now,
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife I Came for You
Alaric nodded. "Pay up. Ten grand."Evelyn fumbled for her credit card, swiping it on the machine the sales assistant brought over. The assistant politely handed her the receipt to sign, finally wrapping up this mess.Red-faced, Evelyn rushed through the whole process, desperate to get out of there. She turned to Elowen, muttering, "I'll wait outside," before bolting out the door.Elowen couldn't tear her eyes away from Alaric. He had been hers since childhood! How could this Vespera girl sweep in and steal his heart in just a few months? Alaric was even willing to humiliate Elowen without a second thought!Even if she couldn't have Heath, she shouldn't lose Alaric too! She never imagined Alaric would one day treat her like a stranger.Vespera, sensing the situation was resolved but noticing Elowen's reluctance to leave, felt out of place. Elowen's hurt and resentful stare at Alaric spoke volumes. After all, Elowen and Alaric had known each other for over two decades – their history w
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife You're his world
Finally, they reached the parking lot. Alaric opened the car door, waiting for Vespera to get in before driving towards the apartment. The whole way, Alaric chattered non-stop while Vespera mostly replied in monosyllables.Alaric: "Ves, are you hungry?"Vespera: "No."Alaric: "Want me to grab you something to eat?"Vespera: "No."Alaric: "Are you going to work on your sketches when you get home?"Vespera: "Mm."Alaric: "Can I keep you company while you work?"Vespera: "No."Alaric: "..."'Well, that backfired,' Alaric thought. 'I'm in the doghouse now.'He missed the early days when they first met. Vespera was a bit shy then, but adorably so. Now she was like an ice queen – even colder than Zane's girlfriend Cheryl!Alaric drove painfully slow, barely above the speed limit. Cars behind him were practically honking. When they finally reached Vespera's apartment building, he parked the car. Before he could even turn off the engine, Vespera was out the door.Alaric quickly locked up and
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife Was it a dream?
Vespera didn't know what others thought, but she was incredibly envious. Who wouldn't be jealous of a love like that?Later, during dinner, Vespera sincerely congratulated Aurora. Aurora teased her, "I heard Alaric's been completely ignoring Elowen because of you?"Vespera fell silent, unsure of what to say. It seemed everyone had noticed that Alaric liked her, even more than he had ever liked Elowen.Deep down, Vespera knew her own feelings. She knew she liked Alaric, maybe even loved him to the point of no return. She just wasn't sure if this guy could spend the rest of his life with her.Alaric and Elowen's history was so well-known that everyone, including Vespera, assumed they'd end up together. So Vespera lacked confidence. She couldn't imagine what Alaric would be like with her instead of Elowen.Alaric probably sensed Vespera's hesitation. From his perspective, he had put in so much effort, yet Vespera still avoided him.The dinner was filled with unspoken thoughts. Alaric dra
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife So sad
Vespera waited all day at home, but Alaric didn't call, text, or come to see her. In reality, Alaric had just gotten up to eat, waited for the housekeeper to clean his room, and then went back to sleep for the rest of the day.While changing the sheets, the housekeeper noticed small bloodstains. These sheets would have to be thrown away; someone as particular as Alaric would never sleep on them again. And so, the only evidence of that night ended up in the trash outside.Gossip spread among the staff, though. They said Alaric had brought a girl home last night, and that wedding bells might be in the air. After all, in all these years, Alaric had never brought a woman home to stay the night. Vespera was the first – this must be true love!The next day, Alaric woke up intending to return Vespera's purse. But then he got a message from his family about some business trouble, asking him and his brother to come home. It was perfect timing, as Mrs. Strider was ready to go home too. She hadn
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife Not a chance
Alaric was taken aback. Did Vespera really hate him that much? Enough to throw away a purse he had touched?He let out a bitter smile, and his hand, which had been reaching for the car door, faltered. It felt like all his courage had been tossed into the trash along with that bag.To be honest, Alaric knew he had made mistakes in the past, but he had acknowledged them and made an effort to change. He stubbornly clung to Vespera, believing they were meant to be together. He thought it was fine for him to take the initiative as a man, but now he was starting to doubt everything.Did Vespera truly love him? Alaric began to question whether it was right to chase after a girl like this, without any dignity.It seemed like he was always the one making the effort. Even during their time together, he was the one constantly seeking her out. If he didn’t reach out, she wouldn’t either. This one-sided relationship left him feeling exhausted and powerless, as he never saw any real response from h

The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife The End
The next morning, Vespera was woken up at dawn, barely getting a few hours of sleep. Known as a dedicated designer, she was usually the first one awake, but today she could barely keep her eyes open. As the stylist worked on her hair and makeup, Vespera sat half-dazed, drifting in and out, completely unaware of the hands tugging her in all directions.Two hours later, with her hair and makeup done, Vespera finally slipped into her wedding dress. The reality hit her, and for the first time, she fully realized she was about to get married.Memories flooded back, particularly that first encounter with Alaric. He’d been sprawled on the steps outside, a bit too tipsy, looking up with half-closed eyes, asking, “What’s wrong with me?” Vespera, surprising even herself, had replied, “Nothing at all.”Back then, he was just a bright, headstrong young man, carrying so many dreams and frustrations. Somewhere along the way, he’d grown into this strong, grounded man. And somehow, after everything,
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife Ready to Be Married
It wasn’t until a few days after their engagement that it even crossed Vespera’s mind to ask about the villa.Alaric confirmed he’d bought it, explaining that he’d thought she might like it and decided to go for it. As for renovations, he wanted to wait until she officially agreed to everything; after all, they’d eventually need their own place—living with Zane forever wasn’t exactly an option.By now, the news of Alaric and Vespera’s engagement had spread everywhere. Alaric was practically ready to announce it to the world on social media, but thankfully, Aurora stepped in, suggesting he keep things low-key since he was the company CEO. Plus, Vespera wasn’t exactly a fan of the public spotlight.Alaric reluctantly held back but couldn’t resist dropping hints in his friend group chat every other day. Heath and the rest were used to it by now—except Lysander, who constantly complained that he was drowning in a sea of "lovey-dovey vibes," being the lone single guy among them.When Auror
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife I'm Impressed
The next morning, Alaric woke up, remembering last night’s events. He pinched himself—no, it wasn’t a dream. Vespera had actually said yes.He jumped out of bed, showered, changed, and even straightened his tie before driving to her studio. There she was, focused on work, wearing a stylish dress and light makeup, looking absolutely radiant.When he walked in, Vespera looked up, surprised. “Finally awake?” she asked with a smirk.Alaric simply nodded, taking her hand without a word and leading her downstairs. She stumbled after him, asking, “Where are we going?”Alaric gently nudged her into his car, driving her toward a villa. Vespera was clueless and a bit shocked, glancing around, unsure of what was happening.They finally arrived at a beautiful villa. Alaric opened the door, and she asked, “Did you just buy this?”&n
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife Alaric Proposed
The next morning, Alaric was finally over his fever. When Vespera woke up, he was already waiting in the living room. After breakfast, they both headed to their respective offices.Aurora’s team reported they’d successfully returned to the Whitmore family’s estate. For her, that had been a fierce battle. For Vespera, however, the real challenge lay ahead: the design competition.Ever since her last conversation with Yvonne, where Yvonne had hinted that everything she had was due to Aurora and Alaric’s support, Vespera had been determined to prove herself. She wanted to be worthy of Alaric and was pouring all her energy into this competition.After submitting her designs, Vespera anxiously waited at home for results. When the winners were finally announced online, she saw her name in second place. The relief and pride were overwhelming. She had finally achieved something worth sharing with Alaric. Now, with the award ceremony in the UK, she had no choice but to let him know.Expecting
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife She Misses Him
Vespera had reclaimed her brand, and Alaric seemed to be maturing by the day, treating her like she was his entire world. Everything seemed to be falling into place.After that showdown in Alaric’s office with Elowen, she hadn’t shown her face again. Vespera figured it was over, that Elowen had finally given up. Everyone else thought the same.But on the day they took graduation photos, Aurora disappeared. Heath and Alaric eventually tracked her down — Elowen had taken her. Vespera was frantic, blaming herself for not protecting Aurora better.Heath and Alaric couldn’t stop Aurora’s flight at the airport, so they booked tickets to the UK to get her back. Vespera had too much to handle here to join them, so she only saw Alaric off at the airport.He held her close, whispering, “Don’t worry. I’ll be back soon, and Aurora will be safe.”Vespera hugged him back tightly. She trusted him. Alaric and Heath would get this done — Elowen had crossed a line that couldn’t be ignored, and she knew
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife One Last Time
This past week, Aurora had been tirelessly setting up to counter Evelyn and her allies, Yvonne and Elowen. Meanwhile, Alaric, working alongside Aurora to reclaim Elowen’s brand.A week later, the press conference went ahead as planned. Alaric helped Vespera pick an outfit, stayed until she’d finished her makeup, and then drove her to the venue himself.The conference, led by Evelyn, was a disaster for her team. They failed to take over Aurora’s company, couldn’t drive her out of the Pendleton family, and made no progress in placing Yvonne and Elowen as CEO and head designer. Their plans had backfired entirely.Leaving the venue, Yvonne, clearly shaken, stepped in front of a car without looking and was hit, blood pooling around her. Vespera, stunned and dizzy at the sight, would have collapsed if Alaric hadn’t steadied her.Frantically, Vespera fumbled with her phone to call home, stammering, “It’s Yvonne… she’s bleeding so much…”As someone unaccustomed to such violence, Vespera was t
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife We’ll Get Everything Back
Alaric looked at Vespera with an innocent expression and said, “It’s not what you think. I’m not a creep.”“Not a creep?” Vespera glared at him. “Then what were you doing in my room?”Alaric almost groaned. “If I told you I was here to give you a massage, would you believe me?”“Total creep!” she shouted. “Sneaking into my bed while I was asleep!”Alaric shot back, “I did not! When I woke up, you were the one curled up on me!”Vespera paused, recalling the moment she woke up. Okay, maybe she had been cozying up to him. Wait a second—was he implying she was the one acting out of line?Seeing her hesitation, Alaric grinned smugly. “See? You were just as comfortable with it!”“Get out!” Vespera yelled.Alaric left the room, trying not to smile too much. Sure, nothing happened, but just getting to hold her felt amazing. Although… his shoulder was sore from her leaning on him all night, so he headed back to his room to grab a few more hours of sleep.Vespera, alone in her room, listened as
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife Close Your Eyes
Vespera walked ahead, casual and carefree in a T-shirt and shorts, no makeup, and even bare of high heels, while Alaric trailed close behind with a jacket in hand, grinning like a fool. Everyone in the lobby couldn’t help but notice—their usually composed CEO was tagging along, practically beaming.Catching up to her, Alaric draped his jacket over her shoulders. “How could you leave without dressing warmer? You’ll end up with a stomach ache tonight,” he said, his voice soft with affection.Vespera felt a warm flutter in her chest but stayed quiet, letting his jacket settle around her as they walked out. Alaric was thrilled she hadn’t brushed him off; emboldened, he slipped his hand into hers, wrapping her cold fingers in his.For a moment, she stiffened, then relaxed, letting her hand nestle securely in his. Together, they headed to the parking lot, Alaric practically floating with joy. This felt better than winning the lottery!Bringing her home, Alaric felt out of his depth—things h
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife Do You Love Me
Alaric stood in his office, with Elowen right in front of him, her hand tugging at his tie, a faint smirk hidden beneath her slightly indignant expression.Seeing the scene, Vespera nearly turned around and left right then and there. But she reminded herself of her purpose for coming today. She was done hiding from Elowen. Even if Alaric wasn’t hers in the end, she’d be damned if he ended up with someone like Elowen.So Vespera strode into the office, fixed her gaze on them, and asked, “What’s going on here?”At the sound of her voice, Alaric spun around, fumbling to free his tie from Elowen’s grip. But Elowen held tight, glancing over at Vespera with a slight smile. “Miss Thornfield? You’re here?”Vespera closed the door behind her, gave a slight nod, and asked again, “What exactly is this about?”Elowen smirked. “Oh, it’s nothing. I just wanted to ask Alaric if I could borrow a few people to help promote my new fashion line. Not sure if he’s on board with it, though.”“Not a chance,
