Chapter 7 CH 7: Thinking Of You
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56(Vincent’s POV)
.
“Aahh.. Vince. Baby, slow down” I heard Rachel’s voice moaning with pleasure while calling my name several time, as I thrust deep inside her core with increased speed. My body wanted to be with her but my mind was thinking about where the f*ck did Julia go.
It has been three weeks since I last heard about her. She was ignoring my calls and messages. Then, it was dead silence. I could not even call her. Her phone went dead, I supposed. She was gone with me having a dozen of unanswered questions about her.
I need to know the truth. I wanted to know who I was married to.
“Vince.. please” Rachel was begging for me to slow down as I was slamming hard on her beautiful bottom. I had squeezed her butt cheeks not realising it had hurt her. I was losing my mind with my thoughts flowing back to Julia.
“I’m sorry, I can’t do this” I pulled out from her and fell back on the bed with my eyes staring at the ceiling. The problem with Julia had definitely affected my sex life with Rachel. At times, I could not even get it up.
“What’s the matter, Vince?” she snuggled her body next to me and placed kissed on my arm. “I love you. You know that right, Vince? You can share your problems with me”
I gave her a half smile and stroke her cheeks. I finally got Rachel back in my arms but I do not understand why it was not enough. Love? I was doubting my feelings for her recently.
The call I had with my stepmother a few days ago, made me wonder if what I did to Julia for Rachel was the right thing to do. Hearing the news about my divorce with Julia, had upset both my stepmother and my father. My stepmother loved Julia.
Unfortunately, the news I broke to her to marry Rachel made her hung up on my call after she said I was making the biggest mistake in my life. She hated Rachel and believed that Rachel was faking her love for me and wanted my money.
Those words made me wonder if what my stepmother said to me was true.
I moved to kiss Rachel but I was surprised that the memory of me kissing Julia at our wedding day, was playing in my head. What’s going on with me?
Hours later, I got up, took a shower and dressed for work.
I needed to get away from Rachel. She was becoming too clingy lately.
My mind was in a mess. I was staring at my laptop without doing any work.
The memory of having Julia as my wife was playing in my head. I knew at that point of time that I needed to find her. I needed to know the truth about her.
I then called my private investigator to come to my office for any updates.
But, it was all a failure.
“Why is it so f*cking hard to find my ex-wife? She is just a poor nurse with no known family or have many friends. Maybe no friends. How far can she go without money and connection?” I shouted at my private investigator who was standing infront of me looking like a fool.
“You are fired!” I threw a stack of cash to pay for the remaining of his service to his face and push him out from my office. When he stumbled, I continued to kick him out. It had made my petite and fragile looking assistant Flora frightened.
“Flora! Get me another private investigator. If you fail to find me a good one, you are fired too” I slammed the door to my office shut and punched a wall with my fist.
It has been few months since I last saw my ex-wife, Julia. “Is that even her real name? How can I not find that naïve and stupid ex-wife of mine? Is she dead? I’m Vincent Verdi. I will find you, Julia!”
I can’t belief that fragile looking ex-wife of mine faked her identity. The previous private investigator that I hired revealed that the identity of Julia Raine was supposed to be a fifty year rich and old single woman living in Australia with a dozen of cats. She was the owner of a large company called Rise Corporation.
It seemed my ex-wife had stolen an identity for whatever reason I did not understand.
“You lied to me, Julia? I’m going to make you pay for lying to me for all those months we were together” I smiled while drinking my Whisky and imagining the things I would do to her fragile looking body.
“Damn those beautiful eyes of yours! Why can’t I stop thinking of you? I had many more beautiful women than you in my life. What kind of spell did you put on me, Julia?” I kept talking to myself like a lunatic.
The imagination of me pushing her to the wall to f*ck her hard had made me hard in my pants for reasons I did not understand. It was as if the vision of my ex-wife’s pretty face was turning me on sexually. I had even imagine having sex with Julia while f*cking Rachel.
I slammed the glass on the table and closed my eyes to get rid of Julia’s face in my mind. “This can’t go on. I need to get you out from my head Julia. I will find you and you will tell me everything!”

Enchante (Nice to meet you)” he stood next to me and held my hand gently, giving it a soft kiss. That quick touch of his lips on my hand sent shivers on my skin.I looked up and saw a handsome man wearing a casual white shirt and blue jeans looking down at me with a smile flashing his perfectly aligned teeth.

In the bedroom of a luxurious suite at Blooming Hotel, Carla opened her eyes and realised her face was rested on a familiar hard chest of a handsome man.She lifted her head and saw his handsome face came to light. ‘F*ck! I slept with Mark, the waiter from Sebastian Café’, Carla thought and sighed in frustration.She was feeling the need for sex the night before but never expected her one night stand to be with Mark, again. He was good in bed, definitely. But, being seen with Mark would tarnish her reputation.‘I must have been drunk last night’, she thought and realised it must have been after realising she was not invited to her cousin’s welcoming party.

(Vincent’s POV).“That’s your Laura?” I asked Calvin with my eyes still trying to catch a better look at Laura Knight that looked so much like my presumed dead ex-wife. The two women might have different hair colour and style but one thing she had that was strikingly similar. It was her blue electrifying eyes.The shade of blue that was hypnotic if you stared at it for a little too long. The kind of eyes that I did not dare to look at when I was married to her.‘Is it really her?’ I thought of the possibilities.The woman standing at the other end wearing a red evening dress exuded the kind of confidence that my ex-wife did not possess. My ex-wife Julia Raine, or whatever her real name was, had a pretty face but Laura Knight was more than just a pretty face. She was amazingly beautiful from every angle. A kind of beauty that could control a wild man into submitting himself to her command.The kind of beauty that I made my heart skipped a beat even when I stood far away from her.“Are

The look of her angry eyes at me after knowing I had read her diary was piercing my soul. Her beautiful blue eyes were on fire.I raised both of my hands in a surrender mode and said, “I can explain. You need to calm down. Not good for our babies that you are carrying. Your stress level needs to be managed”What the hell was I rambling about? It was not going to help me save myself from her wrath that was coming to me.“You did read my diary! How could you do such thing” She said before her face was turning red. She was blushing and for a moment I thought I was wrong. She was not angry, she was embarrassed.Then, I recalled on what I read in her diary. I was pretty embarrassing.

I blamed it on my pregnancy hormones. I was never like this, wanting him by my side most of the time.It had been a challenging process with me having nausea and sensitivity of things around me. I had even lost some weight as my body was rejecting some food, even those that I used to like to eat.“How are you feeling, sweetheart?” Vincent said and lifted my chin to give me a brief kiss on my lips. We were walking towards the place where we first met. A little ice cream shop in Tuscany where I had first saved him from being hit by a motorcycle.The place where I fell in a nearby ditch, stuck for almost an hour until my brother, Henry came to the rescue.

He was driving with his focus on the road.At times she knew, he was taking few glances at her, hoping that she would start the conversation.After a few minutes, the silence was getting weird.“Are you happy with him?” Henry wished he could take that questions back. His words slipped his tongue as they waited in the car being stuck in traffic.“It is none of your concern. Please focus on your driving” Marie said while pretending to look outside the window. There was nothing else to see except for the cars on the road stuck with them in the traffic.“Do you love him? Why.. him?” Henry exhaled his breath and gripped the sterring wheel hard while controlling his anger, “I don’t get it, Marie. At one point, you did not believe in marriage.

I then placed my finger to check on his pulse. It was getting weaker. That made me panic for a moment.I felt his body getting cold and that frightened me further, “Vincent, please.

(Laura’s POV).I took steps slowly back as I saw Cherry coming closer to me. There was blood on her clothes which I thought most likely may not be hers. She looked fine, or was she pretending to look fine?I did not know her well. A deceiving woman who seemed to fight for what she believed in. And I knew all that she believed in was her being the daughter of Lucas Knight and my half-sister.“Do you realised we kind of look alike?” she said with a smile showing her perfectly shaped teeth. It was kind of scary with her eyes looking at me as if I was an object of her admiration.“We have the same eyes. Different colour though. And your hair, look” she touched her hair with one hand, “It is the same colour as mine. Do you think people would believe we are actually related?”Was she kidding me? I knew Cherry made herself look like me. She was obsessed to be me.I opened my mouth to say something but she cut me off with her words, “Laura. You want to know the truth?” Cherry smiled and sang

Was she in trouble?I got up from my chair and walked to the drinking cabinet in my room to get a drink. A strong one I hoped to find.I hoped I could find Laura soon.
