[ Adeline ]“What the hell just happened, Xav? Your father completely nailed it. I mean it came like a four-hundred watt shock to me, I can’t I imagine how Linda must be feeling. Arnold flipped her world in a blink of moment.” I said once we were back to our home. Mom decided to stay with Addison since she was worried for her safety.Xavier was unusually quiet. He didn’t respond to me which made me worried about him, it wasn’t easy for him to witness the fall of his family, a family which was the biggest illusion. I grabbed his hand and then he looked at me with those sad eyes.“Hey, you can talk to me.” I looked at him, it was my silent gesture to make him feel better and an unsaid promise that I am always with him.He exhaled a deep breath and sat down on the edge of the sofa.“Xavier, I am here for you. Please, talk to me.” I insisted him in a soft voice. Sometimes, he needs to be cracked as he doesn’t open up easily.“I don’t know what to say, Ade. Linda and Arthur paid for their
[ Xavier ]A week has passed. My life is similar to a land after a storm. I haven’t heard from Emily. She had to withdraw her plea from the court as I refused to pay her anything except the fixed deposit. It was her money which I couldn’t claim.After killing my baby, she deserves only hell and I know what’d be my next step. I heard from Candance that she’s applying for jobs in different companies and receiving rejection due to her under qualification. Suddenly, my intercom buzzed. I put it on speaker.“Sir, you received a call from your friend, Mr. Harris. He said that he received resume of Ms. Jones for the position of assistant manager at one of his VIP clubs. Shall I transfer the call to you?” My P.A. said from the other side.“Yes, please.” I said and an idea popped in my mind. I got the perfect chance to give her a taste of her own medicine.“Okay Sir, I am transferring his call to you.” He said and after a beep sound, I heard M. Harris’ voice who owns a chain of clubs.“Good af
[ Adeline ]“Oh My God! Please…Xavier..” I moaned as I felt near my first orgasm in days, my fingers fisted his hairs and pushed his face more into my core.His hands were grabbing my breasts while his tongue lapped on my pussy. It had been two weeks since my plaster was removed and after a few sessions of physiotherapy, I was fit like before. Today, when we came back from the work, we collided while he was coming out of the bathroom just in towel and then, our patience gave up and he ended up pushing us back inside the bathroom.He flickered his tongue on my slit before inserting it in my folds, I arched my back as a wave of ultimate pleasure waved through my body cells. I was craving for this skilled man.My eyes rolled, I placed my palms over his hands which were on my breasts and pressed them more on my hardened nipples. He lapped more on my pussy, circling his tongue and pumping it inside out. It was an experience beyond the worldly description. Suddenly, when I was about to rele
[ Adeline ]Finally, I feel like our lives were back on the track. Arthur and Linda went low profile, our security team has been keeping a close eye on them but nothing suspicious caught their attention yet. Speaking of Emily, I had no idea about her. Arnold is taking his treatment but he’s getting weak day by day and we’re mentally prepared for anything.Mom is seeing Mr. Paul and Addison is busy in her own life. We hardly interact and I don’t want us to act like two sisters who love each other. I and Xavier are closer than ever. We become inseparable because I work two days in a week as the CEO of Linwood Corp. Two jobs at the same time are difficult sometimes but Xavier supports me in everything.A knock on my office door forced me to divert from the report I was reading and looked up. Xavier was peeking through the door with a smile. I sat straight and took off my reading glasses. He waved at me.“Ready to go or you still have work to wrap up first?” He asked me.“Yeah, this is th
[ Adeline ]“Why this place is very quiet? I mean there’s no rush and loud music and crowd?” I asked my husband whose hand was on the small of my back. He was leading me inside the club which looked classy and really expensive.“This is one of the busiest and crowdy club in the city but today, I have booked it so you won’t feel uncomfortable.” He replied and I gasped. I blinked my eyes to make sure that I heard him right. His face didn’t show that he was joking.“Oh God! You’re unbelievable, Xavier.” I shook my head.“Why, you don’t like my first surprise?” He frowned.“Definitely not, Mr. Linwood. This is a club not a shrine where I’d prefer peace and silence. A club means, crowd, music, dance and a lot of alcohol.” I said as a matter of fact and his smile dropped.“Ops, it means I was wrong. Don’t worry, there’s a huge crowd outside the main entrance. I’ll tell the club manager to give access to limited people since it’s not good for our security.” He said and dialled someone’s numb
[ Adeline ]A marriage for some people is a union between two lovers who wants to spend their lives together. For people like I and Arthur, it is a diversion in order to attain a prize."So, this is true?"I glanced down on the papers, the black ink on white papers were mocking on my fate."I guess, it is. Addison is pregnant and I do not want my child to born a bastard. I must marry her before the end of this month and it can't happen until you sign these papers of marriage annulmentDon't worry, you'll get the compensation. " He said without any remorse.He made it clear since the beginning of this marriage. He has loved my sister Addison since the high school.It was my parents' pressure or rather I should say condition that Arthur must marry me, the elder daughter of Greyson family and he did but he couldn't accept me by heart."I won't divorce you, Arthur." I threw the papers away. My heart rioted inside my chest, a wave of pain surged through me."Do not test my patience, Adelin
[ Adeline Linwood ]Walking aimlessly on the deserted streets of the city in the earliest hours of morning, I could barely feel anything on my numb body, the chilly air brushing my cold skin, I tried to focus on the road not caring about the surroundings.I was alone and anything might happen to me, from robbery to rape, anything but at this point, I didn’t care.While strolling absent-minded, my feet tumbled on a stone and I lost my balance. I roughly hit my forehead on the sharp edge of a stone flake on the lamppost base. I winced as I felt red liquid on my finger tips. Sighing, I looked around. I thought I had to find a shelter for the night.Suddenly, I heard deep footsteps approaching me. I was near a river bank and no one around. My heart begun to beat loudly in fear.“Do you usually go out alone for a late night walk or tonight is special?” A deep, smooth voice came from behind me, one I recognized. I slowly craned my neck and came face to face with the familiar figure of my br
[ Arthur Linwood ]I closed my eyes as exhaustion consumed my body and mind after working tirelessly for hours and then babysitting my thirteen months old son. He was sick and no one could handle her, not even his nanny. I glanced at the clock, it was ten thirty in the night and there’s no sign of my wife. She has been busy in her new project which took her most of the time.“Sir, should I bring you something to eat?” A maid asked me as I was rocking a whining child.I lifted my heavy eye lids, she had sympathy on her face. I hate when my house staff gives me such looks.“Serve the dinner, I’ll be there after tucking Adam in his crib and send his nanny.” I instructed her.I had to hire a full-time nanny because Addison’s working schedule never gives her enough time to spend with her own child. We had a few fights lately but I came with the terms of taking care of my child on my own responsibility.The nanny came minutes later, I carefully handed her the baby and stood up, my muscles a
