CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56I closed my eyes, leaning against the headrest. We were back in our manor where we shifted after our wedding. Agat was so possessive that he began to do this business from home. I could see fear in his eyes sometimes. We both wanted to forget that day.
Johnny was in jail. Police arrested him. They had also put the murder charges of his late wife. I was really feeling sorry for Victoria.
A few minutes later, my eyes opened as I heard him talking on the phone. My wounds were absolutely fine now but there were marks. After bath, I hid them behind a thin layer of the foundation.
He was wearing simple black jeans and a blue t-shirt. My supermodel husband! I smiled. His gaze met mine.
His eyebrows were creased but his lips parted into a huge smile. I glanced at my stomach. A sense of relief filled me. Our babies were fine.
I shuddered a

I was sitting on the couch waiting for my husband. My hand was on my round stomach, feeling the baby move. I was near to deliver them. Chris and Becca were arguing over the names and adding more things to their rooms. "They are my niece. I'll decide. No dolls in their rooms. They are boys. Rayden boys." Chris told her. "Sir, they are babies. They can't know the difference between a doll and a bear." Becca shook her head. I kept laughing on the seat. My back was aching but it was feeling better now against the pillow. I barely did anything and just wandered in the house. They kept bickering over small things. An uncomfortable feeling crawled my belly. I held my breath as I waited for the wave of pain to pass through. My stomach felt tightened and muscles contracted. I screamed in panic when something wet trailed
The CEO - my billionaire husband Book Two The CEO series - His Bargain
CHAPTER ONE I was born in a small city in Connecticut and currently resided in New York. I sipped champagne from the flute glass and stared at the letter. It was written by my elder sister, Ansley Lewis. She was no more. It was unbelievable. That she had a daughter. I didn't know anything about it until reading this letter. She gave birth to a daughter. Mom told me that she met with an accident, but she didn't tell me about her daughter. Why? My heart was aching. Five years ago, I got into a fight with her. She was dating my boyfriend. She said they were going to tell me. I knew. She wasn't lying. I rubbed my hand on my cheek. I didn't wanna go there. She wrote this letter to me before her death. She had apologized to me. She had also mentione

My eyes were closed but my mind couldn't stop thinking about her for a second and the most strange thing, I couldn't stop thinking about him, too. I slowly opened my eyes. I was still sleeping on the couch. My chest heaved as I let out a breath. My body felt stiff. I rubbed my hand over my neck. It was six. It was my first day in the office. I was going to see him, Chris Rayden. I was hoping to see my niece too. Which was impossible. I sauntered into the kitchen and made myself a coffee. I finished it in a hurry. I didn't wanna get late. Logically, a good impression could put me on his trusted people's list. I would be able to see her. I stared at them. Kallie was saying ' right '. She was looking so happy with her father. A rush of warmth flooded through my body. I shut it immediately. He was my niece's

I smoothed my hand on my pencil blue skirt. I was hoping to see her today. If not naturally, I made it happen. I was confident to see her today. But it was vague possibly as she was a kid. Why would he bring his daughter to his office? With a smile on my face, I grabbed my things and headed toward the door. Stepping out, I locked the door of our home and headed toward the stairs. My heels were making noises against the floor. There was no one in view. I could see only people in their running pants. I held out my key and unlocked my car. I sat behind the wheels and put my bag and files on the passenger seat. I put on the seat belt. ' I'm sorry, Ansley. I should be the one to apologize. I should understand that you both were in love. I shouldn't stop talking to you. But I promise Chels

The phone went off. It rang again. I answered it and held my breath. Before I could utter a word. His voice boomed through the speaker, "In my office, Miss Lewis," The line went dead immediately. I let out a deep sigh and left the desk. The closer I live the more chances I would get to see Chelsea. "Leave the door open," He said as I pushed the door open. I did as he told me. Leaving the door open, I walked into his office. "Sir, " I said. He didn't look up at me and kept typing, "Sit down," He said between typing. I looked at him to finish his typing. My lunch break was approaching. I was hungry. I avoided eating in the morning. Kallie cooked amazing food yesterday. My coffee helped me to survive till my lunch br

I pulled over the car in the parking lot. Grabbing my clutch, I hurried toward the entrance. I winced at the sight of him. I quickened my steps as I reached the hospital. I hardly talked to my mother. We were in a hate and love relationship after Ansley's death. I had one more reason to ignore her that she hid about my niece. "What are you doing here, Chris?" I stopped beside him as he was talking to the doctor. He wasn't my boss right now. I was off duty. He raised his eyebrows. I should be the one acting like this. 'What was he doing here? How does he know my mother?' My heart began to race. Did he know my mother through Ansley? S***! He must have known I was her sister. The doctor

I cursed under my breath as I stared at the plain platinum band. She was wearing the ring, though I wasn't the one to put it in her ring finger. But after signing the fu***** marriage paper. She was my wife. I raked my fingers through my thick hair. She had forgiven me. But my mother couldn't forgive me. It had been f****ng five years. F***! I couldn't forgive myself. Whenever I beheld my reflection in the mirror. I saw a beast. She was comfortable around me. I stopped drinking. I never touched it after that ominous noon. I walked out of the hospital. I would have allowed this surgery. If she had refused to marry me. I had my reasons behind it. She didn't need to know it. It wasn't her business. Mack, my driver opened the door of the car at my sight, "Get in the b
The CEO - my billionaire husband CHAPTER SEVEN
Space! I needed space. Continue thinking about mom's condition, the thought of her going through her illness at this time when I was busy with my bitching behaviour and so stubborn not to talk to them. Because she could see that which I couldn't. She was enduring all this alone. I wasn't a good daughter. I should take care of her after Ansley's death. I was her only family. I didn't know. How did Chris know all this? He promised Ansley to take care of her, which I couldn't do. I should be the one doing this, not him. I tucked the strands behind my ear. I didn't glance at the clock as it didn't seem to move. I glanced at my watch reluctantly. Two minutes must have passed, barely. From the last time, I checked it. The nurses were coming and going in and out of the rooms. My back was hurting and my eyes were getting heavy. This was the moment whe

I watched kids with amusement as they were rushing from one door to another. It seemed impossible to me. But she cooked delicious food for my family. My parents and her mother were sitting on the couch, drinking their tea and talking. They were looking happy. I couldn't help admiring her petite figure in a red dress. I quite enjoyed the view. She was my wife. We hadn't officially signed any contract but marriage papers definitely. I could feel my blood rushing with pleasure at the thought of her in my arms. She let me hold her last night. I told her the dark truth of my life. I was expecting hatred. But she accepted me with all my mistakes. Still, I wanted to make it official. I had asked Agat to help me. Alyssum, Victoria, Becca and Kallie were preparing dinner in the kitchen. This house seemed usele

I hadn't smiled this much before. I could see my world when I looked into his eyes. I hadn't felt loved before. He made me feel. I was here to take my niece. But he took away my heart and gave me every reason to smile, to laugh and to spend life with him. His tears were heart wrecking. I let his pain through his tears, though it was shattering to watch him like this. I let him hold me the whole night, pressing his lips to mine. We slept in each other's arms. I smiled looking at him sleeping. Reluctantly, I extended my hand and slipped in his silky dark hair. I pressed my lips to his forehead. Silently, I slid out of the bed and walked into the washroom. I was in his room. I hadn't seen this part of the house. He never allowed me in before. It wa

She glanced at me leaving everything behind. There was no worry, tension and fear of losing anything on her face. She thought. I didn't know it. But I knew every move of her body. She was developing feelings for me. I had chosen her for this because I wanted her to be my wife. I was expecting her to hate me, leave me after knowing the truth. But she was still here. I didn't want her to feel for me. She would get nothing but a beast, a broken heart. I wasn't blaming Aly for my heartbreak, but myself. I liked her, she knew it. Still, I was sleeping with other girls instead of talking about my feelings. I did not consider myself a perfect husband like my father and brother. I told her the dark secret of my life in the hope she would hate me and stop feeling for me. I saw respect in he

I began to walk back and forth. His poker face frightened me most. He wouldn't question me about what I was doing here without informing him. The door opened. He peeled off the phone from his ear as his gaze met mine. Slotting his phone back into his pocket, he strode at me. What was hurting him, the thoughts were making my head hurt. I trudged near him. and looked in his eyes, "Chris," I whispered. "Yea," He ignored to look at me and frowned at the piles of the files. I sighed and turned to the desk. I picked them one by one and arranged it on the wooden ranks, "I know. You don't trust in our wedding. But we can be friends." I said. I forwarded my hand to put the last file. He grasped my hand and twirled me, "What are you trying

I woke up wearing that stupid short silky dress. Tears leaked from my eyes. I rushed toward the washroom and got rid of it. I didn't make breakfast today. I wasn't expecting him to be home. But I heard footsteps and hope raised, forgetting all the torture of last night. He sat down on the chair. I stood up without a word and walked into the kitchen. I didn't want him to go to the office without eating like yesterday. Hurriedly, I cooked for him and served him. I got in the chair and grabbed my coffee again. It was cold and I wasn't bothered. He casually slid his phone on the table and looked at me across the table, "Where's your food?" He asked. "I'm not hungry," I sai

He rang the bell. I watched my surrounding, manicured garden, flowers, trees queues on the side of a single road. If Chris thought, I would change my mind after seeing their wealth. He got me wrong. I spun hearing the door creaking. Alyssum was standing in her shorts, her face was sleepy, her hair was in a loose bun, she stared at us for a second with her blue eyes, She smiled at our sight and beamed. She was looking like a cute little girl with bare feet and her smile. My eyes caught a mark on her neck. "Still sleeping!" Chris arched his eyebrows and leaned in to kiss her cheek. My gaze stopped on her throat. There was a slight mark. She blinked, looking up at him nervously and then smiled. I had heard rumours that my husband was in love with her. I didn't believe the rumou

Our mother in law opened the door for us. Her face brightened looking at her grandchildren. She bent down and hugged them at one time. Alyssum and I laughed. I could see the same excitement on Aidan's face too, who remained with his gadgets the entire day. I must say my mother in law was beautiful, "How are you, mom?" She asked. "I have seen my grandchildren. You can see my smile." She grinned. Alyssum laughed, I smiled too. The thing was, I hadn't experienced what being with family felt like. Now I could be confirmed, it was a blessed feeling. She embraced me with the same enthusiasm. I relaxed in her motherly hold. She invited us in. Kids were already in the room and playing on the blanket where

An icy chill ran down my spine. The thought of my mother laying on the bed terrified me. I needed to concentrate on Chelsea. I should tell her that Alyssum wasn't her mother then it could be. I could persuade her to come with me. I should invite Alyssum for Lunch with her kids. I grabbed my phone and called on her number. "Hello, " I recognized her sweet voice. "Hi, Chelsea! I'm your Zara Aunt." "I'm Elsa," She giggled. "How are you?" I started the conversation with a simple question. I heard another voice. She wasn't alone. I didn't have any experience with kids. I was trying my best. I waited for her to reply. "Mom, it's Zara aunt." Then it went silent. "Are you ok?" I furrowe

PART - TWO I glanced at happy, smiling faces. The wedding was simple but royal one. I couldn't make such arrangements for my wedding. I got married. It didn't seem fair that my sister's one night stand partner was my husband now. My gaze was on Chelsea. My mother and my mother in law…… They were looking at kids and laughing over something. A nurse was sitting on the chair behind my mother. Alyssum's sons, Aidan and Dairo were playing in the background with Renee. She was Victoria and Harris' daughter. Chelsea and Renee were holding a small girl's hand. I didn't know her name but she was Alyssum's best friend's daughter, Becca and Nathan. There were only a few people, almost family. All were rich and businessmen. Chris squeezed my hand. I swivelled and looked at him. His gaze was gi
