The Billionaire's Secret Wife 030: Going Public
Alexander's POV It was becoming a lot difficult to resist Cynthia's charms. We were constantly spending time together thanks to ongoing business deals, and there was no denying the fact that staring at her beautiful face all brought back pleasant memories. Cynthia had been the first woman I ever loved, and while I had forgotten about her all this while, seeing her again definitely awakened something deep inside of me. But now I was married, and while Heather might not believe me, I actually cared for her. Just like her, I wanted the world to know about us, I wanted people to know how smart my wife was. But I just couldn't, and it was definitely for her own good. Mathew was dangerous, that fact was already established. And if by any chance he figured out that I had a wife, someone that I actually cared for, I had no doubts in my mind that he would come after her. After twenty minutes of driving and intense thinking, I finally came to a halt in front of Heather's driveway. For a s

Matthew's POV "Alexander? Married?" I exclaimed the moment I read the headlines of a viral Facebook post. "Since when did that bastard get married? And to who—" "Boss, you have a visitor." Viktor's announcement interrupted me. I turned around to meet Cynthia sashaying towards me, her face contorted with confusion and rage. "How long have you known that he was married? How long have you been wasting my time?!" She queried angrily before slamming the magazine in her hand on the table. I rose from my seat and steadily walked to the middle of the room to get a glance of the book she had just dramatically slammed onto the table. It was on the front page, Alexander's marriage announcement. He had definitely gone all out with the news, but for what purpose? What exactly was he trying to accomplish here? I questioned myself. However, now was not the time for that. Cynthia was clearly confused and angry, and while she had failed to read my expressions correctly, I also felt the same way sh

Cynthia's POV She can’t possibly be his wife, can she? The woman I saw at the restaurant? The overreacting one? I questioned myself as I slowly walked towards my car. No, that doesn’t make sense. Alexander would never go for someone like her. He was far out of her league, and there wasn't really anything special about her. She didn't have the grace nor the elegance to catch the attention of a man like Alexander Forger. But then again, it was impossible to just throw the possibility away especially after what had happened yesterday. He had chased after her the moment she left the restaurant, the old Alexander would never chase after a woman, never! And now, this? Suddenly announcing his marriage? It couldn't possibly be a coincidence. Had she forced him to announce their marriage in order to keep the other women away from Alex? It was likely to be the case, especially after seeing how angry and jealous she had been at the restaurant yesterday. However, all of this was based on the

Alexander's POV It was expected, and she hadn't been the first person to question me about it. The news was everywhere now, and I had gotten dozens of emails regarding the matter. Few were congratulatory messages, while the majority were questions from colleagues that I had worked with in the past, a few that I couldn't even recognize. "That's not something you should worry yourself with. It wouldn't help you in any way now, would it?" I returned while I slowly slipped my hand away from hers. "I beg to differ." Came a sharp reply from Cynthia who picked up her glass the moment I stole my hand away from hers. "I want you back, Al, and now you're suddenly married? Did you do it to spite me? Or have you simply just kept your marriage away in order to lead me on?" I rolled my eyes inwardly. As always Cynthia was so full of herself. I had been wondering since the day she called me. What was she really up to? Could it really be that she was in love with me, and genuinely wanted us back

Heather's POV Hearing everybody talk about Alexander's marriage and who the mystery wife might be was already weird enough, but it was nothing compared to being escorted out of the classroom by two men dressed in suites with black tinted shades. The last thing I wanted was to be the center of attention especially when everybody was looking around for the possible wife of Alexander Forger. The whispers and murmurings had begun before I even had the chance to leave the class. I held my face down, wondering where these men could have possibly come from. My heart pounded erratically as I followed the two figures. What if they worked for Mathew? Had it been a mistake to force Alexander into announcing our marriage? I wondered while I searched for possible escape routes as well as readying my voice to scream out for help if it happened to be Mathew. However, it was not Mathew, it was my selfish father in law, Logan Forger. "You look well, Heather. I didn't expect you to return to school
Last Updated : 2025-01-08The Billionaire's Secret Wife 035: Consequences II
Alexander's POV I had been too occupied with Cynthia to notice that I had gotten a text from Heather early enough. By the time I had seen the message, two hours had passed and Heather had already informed me that she was at home. Without wasting any second, I had immediately driven to her place in order to make sure that she was doing alright. I promised myself to kill Logan Forger if as much as one strand of hair was missing on her head. I will never forgive him if he dared to harm Heather. Anxious and paranoid, I sped through the roads like a madman until I reached my destination. Without care for how my vehicle was parked, I jumped down and immediately raced into the house. Heather was in the kitchen when I entered the room, and from the look of things she seemed to be doing alright. "Are you okay? Did he hurt you?!" I asked while I raced to get a better assessment of her condition. "I'm fine, he didn't do anything to me." Heather replied, but I could tell she wasn't done. R

Heather's POV The doorbell rang only a few minutes after Noah's departure. Eager and happy that he had chosen to stay home instead of confronting his father, I raced to the door, ready to throw myself in his arms the moment I opened the door. I glanced through the window while I hurried towards the door, and only then did I realize that Noah's car was still gone, and come to think of it, I never really heard the sound of his car coming back. The excitement that once enveloped me vanished and was immediately replaced with paranoia and anxiety in a split second. I've had neighbors come to say hi and welcome me to the neighborhood, but never this late. I was skeptical at first, but after some few minutes of thinking and speculation, I finally decided to open the door and find out who it was. My eyes widened expressively and I felt a sudden feeling of rage wash over me the moment I opened the door. I might not be able to remember everything and everyone I had met before, but there was

Alexander's POV The last thing I had expected to hear from Heather was Cynthia's name, or the fact that she had actually shown up at our doorstep. I had been careless and inattentive to the fact that she could have been following me. Safety precautions had slipped my mind the moment I received Heather's text. The only thing that had been on my mind back then was getting to her and making sure she was safe. Cynthia had exploited that moment, and had made good use of it. "She's... someone I'm working with on a contract." I replied after a minute of silence and confusion. However, Heather was not particularly satisfied or pleased by my answer. I could tell she recognized Cynthia from the restaurant, and there was the possibility that Cynthia had already said things that would suggest to Heather that our relationship wasn't just work related only. "Is that all? Because she didn't look or sound like a simple work colleague, Al!" Heather referring to me as 'Al' was all I needed to fi

Alexander's POV I used my body as a shield to keep Heather safe from whatever the fuck was happening. Were we being targeted? Or had we simply gotten caught in the middle of a gang rivalry? The former seemed to likely be the case, the restaurant seemed to be the only thing being targeted. What was going on? Was this Matthew's doing? Surely he wouldn't be this careless, would he? Although a private establishment, the restaurant was not in a secluded area, residential areas were nearby, so there was no way people wouldn't recognize his cartel. Had he sent them after me regardless of that risk? Was he really that desperate to get rid of me? "Tsk..." I lamented audibly while I held Heather tightly in my arms. It took a while for the restaurant's security to retaliate, and another five minutes before the exchange came to a halt. I didn't blame them for taking so long, this place was built for eating, not for warfare, and an unexpected attack like this was not something they could e

The Billionaire's Secret Wife 055: First Date
Heather's POV The days felt slower, and I never failed to wake up with a feeling of regret every morning. How could I not feel bad when I constantly had to wake up by the side of the man whom I had betrayed and cheated on. Matt wouldn't stop calling, and each time I saw his name on my phone screen, I was reminded about everything that happened. It felt torturous, I just wanted to forget about everything that had happened, but I just couldn't escape it no matter how hard I tried. It had been stupid of me to get involved with another man while I was married in the first place, and now I was simply paying for my mistakes. "Are you ready, yet?" Alexander inquired as he walked down the stairs, his voice effectively distracting me from my thoughts. "Y...Yes." I stammered, hoping he hadn't caught the look on my face earlier. "Are you sure about this?" I asked, concerned and scared. "Yes, we deserve it. You deserve it." He replied as he walked forward to me. Once I was within reach,
The Billionaire's Secret Wife 054: Chase These Feelings
Mathew's POV Although we had a job at hand, I just couldn't stop thinking about Heather. Why did she suddenly suggest that we stop? What had happened? Did she not like me like that? Or have I simply lost my touch? It had been a full day now and I still couldn't get it out of my head. I had called her numerous times, texted her a dozen long paragraphs but she just wouldn't reply nor return my calls. I never imagined that I would be this down for a lady I had met barely a month ago. Something was just different about Heather, and I had gotten drunk on whatever pheromones she was emitting. She was all I could think about, and it was slowly driving me insane. "When do we leave, boss?" Viktor inquired, his deep voice jolting me back to reality. I had almost forgotten about our job, and I could tell that Viktor was not happy one bit with this recent development. He was already mad at me for not taking the Forgers too seriously, and that was why he had lashed out at Cynthia the other day
The Billionaire's Secret Wife 053: Who Is She?!
Alexander's POV The last thing I had expected to hear when I got up from bed was the fact that Cynthia could be a serial killer. This practically just told me that I had no idea who Cynthia really was, and it genuinely terrified me. But then again, there was a solid possibility that this man was lying. I highly doubted that he was being dishonest, but that was simply not enough to prove that he was lying. "You do not seriously think that I'll believe you, do you? I've only known you for like five minutes, and you expect me to believe that someone I've known for years is a mass murderer of old men?" I challenged, crossing my arms and staring Maxwell down. My voice was steady, but internally, I was grappling with a storm of doubt. As much as I wanted to dismiss his claim outright, there was no denying that Cynthia had definitely changed. She had many connections, and was bigger than I had imagined over the course of a year. I never really questioned her about her means of survival,
The Billionaire's Secret Wife 052: A Serial Killer
Alexander's POV Although I wanted to find who the bastard sleeping with my wife was, Matt was simply not enough information to make that dream reality. I had no idea what he looked like, and I simply didn't want to discuss that matter any further than I already have. The last I wanted was to remind myself or Heather that she had been unfaithful. Stepping on the acceleration pedal, I sped off into the highway, determined to get to work on time. I hadn't been able to get anything done the previous days thanks to my thoughts always distracting me, as well as Cynthia always coming at the wrong time. But today would be different. I had worked on those thoughts, and I was sure Heather wasn't going to cheat on me anymore, at least not in a long time. I reached the office ten minutes earlier than usual, clocked in, and immediately got to work. It was crucial that I finished on time so that I could go back to Heather and keep her company. She had said she would take a break from school for
The Billionaire's Secret Wife Trust Her
Alexander's POV I did my best to concentrate on work, but no matter how much I tried, I just couldn't get the image of Heather kissing another guy out of my head. It had been three days since she told me about the incident, and I still couldn't get it out of my head. I had been with her the past three days, making sure that she wasn't going around playing around with other guys, as well as keeping her company and giving her all the love she deserved. While I wanted to play my part as her husband properly, I was mostly spending time with her so that she wouldn't have to go out and be with the man that had supposedly kissed her by accident. "Stop thinking about that!" I cautioned myself as I tried to focus on the tons of paperwork in front of me. It was simply impossible to not think about it, I loved Heather and I didn't want her to be taken from me. Who was this guy? What did he look like? And what exactly had he done and said to Heather? Taking a deep breath, I fell back to the c
The Billionaire's Secret Wife 049: Jealousy II
Alexander's POV I stared at Heather with stunned eyes, unsure of how to react to what she had told me. I suspected that something like that might be going on, but I never really imagined that it would be true. "It wasn't anything serious, I think he just missed my cheeks by accident." Heather explained in a rather frantic voice after she caught the look on my face. I knew for certain that he hadn't missed her cheeks by accident, and I knew that it was definitely something serious for whoever this Matt guy is. Heather might not take it seriously, if she was really committed to the relationship, I was certain she wouldn't let me know. However, I couldn't say the same for Matt who had no idea that Heather was married. "It..it's fine, Heather, I'm not mad at you." I finally replied after a full minute of silence. She had worked up the courage to tell me, and I was really grateful for that. At least she was better than me who couldn't even think of approaching her with the truth
