All Chapters of Wife In Contract: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

ANNIKA’S POVThe last five years passed by like a blur. A lot happened in that span of time. I continued working with Aries and we became really good friends. My mom recovered and now enjoys her life with me. It took me a while, but I finally healed from the pain of the past. There were times when I still cried and mourned for my son, especially when his birthday approached, but I finally accepted that he was gone. And that maybe. . . God has a better plan for me, that's why He took him away from me.Jade and Hunter broke up, and I didn't have any idea why. She acted as though it was alright, yet, I could see so many changes in her actions. Gone was the spark in her eyes, and even when she denies it, I can see in her eyes that she's still in pain. Jade never talked about the break-up, and every time I tried to ask her about it, she would immediately shrug it off and change the topic. I wanted to help her, but she wouldn't open up, so I did what I knew was the best that I could do for h

ANNIKA’S POV“What happened here?” I asked as soon as I opened the door to Aries’ office.I was greeted by a mess. There were piles of papers scattered on the floor, shards of broken glass and torn documents. I found Aries sitting on the couch, his head was buried on his lap while his hands were on his hair, grasping forcefully out of frustration.Just looking at the surroundings made my head throb. How am I going to clean this all? “That good for nothing asshole!” he whispered underneath his breath, making it barely audible. “He's going to pay for it.”“What's the matter, Aries? Did you and Caspian have a fight?” I asked. Slowly, I bent to pick up the papers on the floor, threw away the torn documents and the broken glass on the trash bin.Aries did not answer me, and it looked like he had no plans of answering anytime soon.“Please cancel all my appointments today, Annika. I'm not in the mood to face anyone right now. And. . . when you're done calling everyone, give me a knock. We'l

ANNIKA’S POV“Being a mother is not just about having a child, Juliette. Unfortunately for you, you don't deserve to be called a mother. . .or if you are, then you are a terrible mother. I may have lost my child, I may not have the chance to raise him like you do. . . But in spirit, and in heart, I am more a mother than you,” I clapped back, my veins almost popping out of anger. She looked so stunned, until her eyes turned sharp in annoyance.She let go of Timmy and took a step forward, her eyes shooting me a deadly glance.“How dare you—”Before her palm could land on my face, I was quick to block her. Timmy stood behind her, frozen to the ground as he watched us. I feel so sorry for him that he had to witness this, but I'm not just gonna let Juliette hurt me again.“Do not ever think of touching me again, Juliette. You're mad because you know I'm right. Accept it, you're a terrible mother and Timmy is better off without you. If you can't love him enough, then don't give him false hop

ANNIKA’S POVJuliette desperately shook her head.“No, Aries. Timmy is not your son! His father is Caspian, and that's the truth. You have to accept it!” Juliette insisted. She was stomping her feet out of sheer frustration. I watched her face all the time she said those words, and I knew she was telling the truth. I can feel that she's telling the truth.“But that's not true! You said it yourself, he passed out on you! He couldn't even touch you. . . Let alone kiss you!” Aries turned red. He sounded so confused and frustrated.I couldn't understand a thing, but it seems clear that they had a thing in the past. Something that I couldn't believe. Aries had never said anything about Juliette. He knew how Juliette ruined my life. . . And though I believed Caspian when he said that nothing happened between them, a part me of broke when I found out about Juliette’s pregnancy. It shattered my heart, ruined my dream of a happy family with the love of my life.I couldn't process everything tha

ANNIKA’S POVJade and I stayed up really late last night. We didn't know who was responsible for the ads, and we figured out that we should just be thankful for whoever it was.The sun was already piercing from the window, but I couldn't bring myself to get up. I am still tired and sleepy from last night, and I can feel my head throbbing from the alcohol.However, I can hear Mom's loud knocking and her shrill voice as she yell.“Annika, come on! Get up now, you have a visitor!” came her voice.I squeezed my eyes shut and covered my ears with a pillow. However, before I could drift back to sleep, someone pulled the pillow away. It was Jade. She sat upright, her hair in a mess and her eyes still half-closed.“Girl, you might want to check it. You know your Mom won't stop knocking, do you?“ she asked in her sleepy voice.I heaved a deep sigh and decided to get up. I just wrapped myself in a robe and opened the door, walking straight into the living room to see who the unannounced visitor
