All Chapters of THE WIFE'S GAMBIT: CONTRACT MARRIAGE : Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

CHAPTER 122Richard's POVMy wife was pregnant and missing. While it was one thing that she was missing, it was another that she was missing with our four weeks old child. What was I thinking that day? I clearly loved Lenora, but for some reason I saw it as a weakness and I'm not one to show weaknesses. Even if she had run away, it wasn’t like her to not reach out to her parents. No, she was definitely abducted, Lenora wasn’t the type to cover traces of herself, she's too sentimental. Her abductor had better not lay a finger on her else they'd better dig a grave deeper than six feet because they'd be going straight to hell if I ever find them. But now the question remains, who could be her abductor?I stopped pacing around my office and pulled out an office paper and a pen. Writing Lenora on the sheet of paper I thought of different speculations on her disappearance. I had a lot of possible outcomes of her disappearance; One, no one had called for a ransom, which entailed that the

CHAPTER 124Lenora POV“What do you think you are doing?” I raised my voice at him as I moved away from the man who was approaching with a deadly smirk on his face.“You're still as arrogant as you were back in the brothel” He scoffed.“You think you are someone special?” He smirked even more deadly.His eyes suddenly went down to my shirt which was slightly open by two buttons. If another button were to open, my tits would be exposed.I instantly covered my chest with my bare hands and gave a loud scoff at my actions. “I had always had my eyes on you back in the brothel. Acting all like you are the most righteous.” He grunted.One of the things I left out for Richard was Marco's part, Marco had always tried to have his way with me back then In the brothel.“Do you remember this?” He said, showing me the bite mark on his wrist.Of course I did, I was the one who gave him the bite mark.“Do you know how frustrating it is seeing this every day?” He ran his fingers into his hair.“I-I w

CHAPTER 126Richard's POVI looked out of my car on my way home, Lenora missing had been distracting me a lot.“Are you okay?” Remo glanced at me through the rear mirror.He must have noticed the worry on my face.“How could I? Lenora is still nowhere to be found, I don't think she is okay where she is,” I mumbled.“Ma’am Lenora is strong, I’m sure she is going to make it out of there alive and strong,” Remo said trying to assure me but I didn’t think that was working.“I don’t think she is okay,” I mumbled under my breath but that wasn’t for him to hear.I had the feeling that she wasn’t okay wherever she was, she seemed to be in pain, I had been having some weird nightmares for a couple of days seeing her in pain, which got me more worried.My phone suddenly buzzed and I looked down at a call from mom. I picked up after the second ring.“Any update on her yet?” She asked the moment I picked.It was really rare for Mom to go on with the main reason she called, without going with her

CHAPTER 128Lenora's POVI sat on the bed with my legs crossed while my eyes were on the woman who was busy scrubbing the bloody floor, Neil had come in with her after a few minutes he left with the pistol. The woman's gaze suddenly tore away from what she was doing and rested on me.“You didn’t tell me you are now married.” She mumbled turning back to Neil who had stayed quiet the whole time.She isn’t just an ordinary cleaner? Seeing them exchange such mutual conservation, they must be quite close.“I don’t think I have any reason to tell you,” Neil replied rudely, ignoring the woman's soft gaze.“Neil.” She gently called and I watched Neil frown more without hesitation.It is quite obvious that their relationship wasn’t that smooth.“Don’t forget that I’m like your mother, I typically raised you to be what you become.” She said and my brows scampered a bit, even if she raised him, I didn’t think she looked anywhere familiar. I had known Neil from kindergarten till high school, so

CHAPTER 130Richard's POVReceiving the news from Remo, I ran out of the house in the direction of the car that was already parked outside by one of the men.“Drive right now!” I ordered placing a call to Remo“What’s the situation right now?” I asked, feeling already impatient.“Everything is under control, our men have already arrived armed, we are just waiting for them to arrive.” He responded instantly.“Alright. I will be there in a minute.” I said and instantly hung up.“Step on it now,” I ordered the man who instantly stepped vividly on the accelerator.My feet were tapping agitatedly up and down, and anyone would notice my impatience. Nervousness made my palms sweaty.The drive, which was supposed to take just a few minutes, felt much longer in my eyes. Finally, the car stopped at the destination and I instantly alighted. Remo walked towards me in an unstable manner and I raised my brows and questioned.“What’s the condition now?” I asked, looking at the men that were already
