All Chapters of Scandalous Secret Affairs: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

The gates gleam in the evening light. Leia just got discharged a few minutes ago. The itchy feeling of the removed IV tugging for her attention every few seconds. She has a sense of deja vu as she stands outside Mark's obnoxiously large mansion. Remembering the last time she was here and how she had practically begged the guard to let her in was something she'd like to bury. At least this time she doesn't have to listen to bitchy comments about her supposed infidelity. With a resigned sigh she walks in. She settles into the chair Mark had drawn for her, resolutely ignoring his glaring attempts of being a good host. It's only two of them in the opaque dining room. Leia wonders why they aren't in his office. He clears his throat as he settles in his seat, right across from her. "You can have anything you like. I even made the chefs prepare your favourites." He says as he gestures to the spread on the table. Leia ignores his words, using her middle finger to push her plate away

Everything happened within the blink of an eye, that all who heard the story found it hard to believe. The people whispered throughout the city, just how unbelievable the situation was. Just recently she had lost her husband to the law and today, Leia had gone mad, it was a juicy topic for everyone.As everyone gathered before the Sky cooperation escorting the army of medics as they restrained Leia, Leia was on a rampage. "Let me go, let go of me, I don't want you touching me…," she screamed non-stop while the cameras and light flashes before her eyes. "I want to see my husband, where's my husband, I want my child and my husband," she continued. At the hearing of a child, the journalist went crazy. They press their recorders forward, hoping to get a bit more juice out of Leia when another set of sirens flood the area. "Alright, everybody back away," they say, forming a barricade around the ambulance. The chief officer walks out from his car, and makes his way towards Claire. "

Confused, Leia tilts her head as she stares back at him, "Excuse me?" She questions but Mark's face was drawing too close to hers. "I can remember how you'd wrap your arms around me so I can call you by that name," his hands begin to trace around her back as he rests his head upon her shoulders. "What made you change so much?" The words whisper in her ear, causing Leia to freeze. The two stand outside the elevator when Mark leaves her to summon the elevator. "What made me change so much?" She asks herself. For a brief second, she stands confused, replaying his question repeatedly in her head until she opens her mouth and says with a smile. "Nothing, I just grew up."Mark stares at her for a moment and rubs his jaw. He tilts his face side to side as he observes Leia's face making her uncomfortable, but then he beams brightly. "Well that's a better explanation," he answers, leading Leia inside the elevator. "I guess I can agree with that, after all, you and Kasen couldn't even

"I'll need some funds," Leia starts murmuring to herself.Her regret after realizing how broke she was irks her more. "Had I known better, I would have come with some extra cash," she scowls. Her attention diverts as soon as her cell phone comes on and she hurries to reach her contacts with it one name appears. There was no name no history, save the phone number lying in wait for Leia. Her heart begins to thump hard as she stares hard at the phone in her hand, debating on whether or not she should take the bold step and call the number. It isn't until after three minutes that she father's courage and does what she must. The phone rings loudly for a while, and Leia chomps off her finger in wait, pressing her phone against her ear. "Who?" A deep intimidating voice answers and Leia freezes. "I've got a lot of things to do, so I'd appreciate it if you don't waste my time, I'll hang up now" the voice tells her. "Wait!" There's a brief silence from both ends of the phone as Leia p

Get off!" Leia yells again, her hands lifting from the bed to push at Mark roughly by the shoulder.The man blinks at the struggling woman as he smiles widely, exposing his set of white teeth. "And here I thought you were asleep." He said with a smarmy grin. She knows too well that Mark was aware she wasn't asleep, and she finds his cheap trick stir with irritation and her face twisting with disgust before shoving him with more force."I SAID get off!." She hollers into his face. Mark winces at the noise but she can't tell he's enjoying himself. He reluctantly moves before the woman succeeds in making him go deaf.He pushes himself into a sitting position, watching as Leia immediately scrambles away from him and hunches herself into the headboard of the bed.He smiles at the furious expression on her face."I wonder if you were asleep or just pretending…. You know maybe you were awake and you didn't move because you liked what I was doing to y-.""Shut up!" She yells, cutting off Ma
