All Chapters of Married To The Jinx : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

CHRISTOPHER "That's my ex-fiance", Adele said to me and my hand stopped what they were doing instantly. Her ex-fiance? I looked up at her instantly before looking down at the diagrams in my hand. Wow, it's a lot. "The- they have no face", I commented and she sighed before packing the sheets I had spread all over the couch. I got back on the couch as I watched Adele arrange the sheets back together. She dropped her hands slackly on her lap with the sheets still clenched tightly in them. "I couldn't draw him properly", she finally commented without looking at me. "I still can't", her lips twitched when she said that and I dropped my head helplessly to look at the tiled floor. "Why?", I let out my curiosity before looking up at her. I met her eyes on me, so I asked again. "Why can't you draw him?" "I don't know", her reply came immediately and it seemed pained. She is not happy with the fact that she can't draw his face and that somehow makes me sad as well. "For the few m

ADELE I stared at the lady sitting not very far away from me and my lips twitched. She really is beautiful. No wonder Chris was in love with her. And her poise is another thing, she carries herself in a way I wouldn't. So elegant and affluent. "Four million dollars", I heard another voice say I turned away from Bianca's direction. An older lady is holding her placard up as she just said that. "Five million dollars", Chris said as he raised our bidder card up and a smile crept onto my face. Even if this handsome man beside me loves Bianca, he is still my husband. He is- mine. "Five point five million dollars", Bianca said and I growled internally. "Five point seven million dollars", the other woman said and I sighed. I guess I am not getting that set then. "Six million dollars", Bianca's voice came again. "Six point five million dollars", the older woman said again. "Seven million dollars", Bianca quickly said loudly. She must really want it too. "Nine million dollar

CHRISTOPHER I sat down on the couch and clasped my hands underneath my chin in thought. I can't explain what it is that I feel toward Adele but I know that I am attracted to her. That's the explanation I can give right now about what happened between us yesterday. I was attracted to her, that's all. I mean no guy wouldn't be after seeing that much of her white, porcelain, smooth, silky skin. I stood up from the couch and went to the bed instead. It is seven in the morning and Adele hasn't woken up yet. It is more of the reason why I put the plates outside. I do not want anything or anyone to disturb Adele's sleep. I walked to her side and bent down on the floor as I stared at her sleeping face. A few strands of her hair is covering her right eye, so I pushed it to the top of her head with my finger. I stared at her beautiful face and a smile crept onto my lips. Setting my left hand against her right cheek, I stroked her cheek with my thumb. She moved her head continuously in m

ADELE I walked out of the bathroom after taking a shower and Chris went in immediately. I raised a brow at the closed bathroom door before shrugging and going into the walk-in closet to get dressed up instead. I was done in no time and I hung the bathrobe I used to dry and went to bed. The door to the bathroom finally opened and I looked toward it. Chairs walked out majestically with a towel wrapped around his lower body and I took my eyes off him immediately. My heart started beating fast when my head moved on its own to look at the man standing not far away from me with his hands drying his hair with a towel. Water trailed down from his hair over his face, only to join with the water on his face and the journey continued. I gulped as I trailed that bead of water down to his chest and down those muscular abs on his stomach. It took a rough path going lower and it suddenly went down that v line and into the skin underneath the towel. My throat went dry as I stared at that par

ADELE "We should go out someday", Chris said as he dipped his hand into the bowl of popcorn on my lap. Chris had insisted on making popcorn for the movie and I willingly agreed and helped too. The lights are off right now and the television is the only thing emitting light. "Why?", I asked with a frown as I turned to look at him but his face is blue from the display on the television screen. "It's a normal thing couples do almost every time, Adele", Chris replied in a boring tone and I faintly saw him roll his eyes at me. "Mm", I hummed in a not-so-nice way and his head snapped toward me immediately. He turned to look at the television immediately his eyes met my angry face I scoffed before turning to face the television as well. "Am I the only one who finds this movie extremely boring?", I asked with a sigh. "Yes, you are the only one and that's because you are not paying attention to the movie", Chris stated. "As always", he added after a while and I rolled my eyes at
