All Chapters of THE WIFE'S GAMBIT: CONTRACT MARRIAGE : Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

CHAPTER 131Richard's POV:After hearing the doctor’s words I walked out of his office with my fist tightly clenched. If only I could get Neil and Tara at this point, I was going to tear them apart into pieces.I walked to the ward Lenora was moved to. My men who were already guarding the door, instantly bowed at my sight, I ignored them and dragged my feet into the ward.Getting into the private VVIP ward, Lenora was lying helplessly on the bed with many machines connected to her, a tear instantly rolled down my face. I couldn’t imagine what she would have passed through there, especially with the pregnancy.I suddenly blamed myself for everything more, maybe if I hadn’t rejected her that night, if I had told her that I loved her back, this might have been different, she might have slept over in my room and the abduction wouldn’t have taken place.I got on my knees crying my heart out with my hand slightly on her belly.“Lenora, I'm sorry.""I'm so sorry for coming too late." I cried

CHAPTER 133Richard's POVI walked out of Lenora’s room and Yara instantly ran after me.She closed the door behind her and looked up slightly at me, “You called for me Sir.” She mumbled a bit scared of my stern expression.“Where have you been?” I asked, folding my arms across my chest.“I’m sorry I didn’t inform you about it. I left for home, it was an emergency.” She said but I didn’t believe that.“Where were you the night my wife was kidnapped?” I asked and I watched her eyes squint.“What are you talking about Sir?” “I think I asked a question and you are expected to give an immediate answer,” I said sternly and she shivered at my harsh voice.“I was in my room sleeping.”“By chance, are you suspecting me about anything?” She raised my brow slightly at me.“You can go now,” I mumbled narrating.She seemed to hesitate for a minute, she took the last glance at my face and nodded slightly before walking back into Lenora’s room.I paved around the hallway for a few seconds. I had t

CHAPTER 135LENORA'S POVThe Sunlight filtered in the room, its early rays shining brightly on my face. It was a bright morning and I must confess that it was full of love. I kneaded the dough with an even wider smile at the thought of Richard.It was already a month since the whole thing, my smile became even wider at the thought of no more Tara. It was a weekend, Tara would have come over with a silly excuse just to see Richard but all that was already over “Are you thinking about him right now?” I heard a familiar voice that jolted me back to reality.I frowned slightly at the voice, it was no other person than Yara who had been with me in the kitchen all day.“I’m not. I’m only remembering some things.” I frowned even more without hesitation but Yara continued to laugh.That brat!Once I finished kneading the dough, I put it into the oven with Yara’s help.Mrs. Vanya had taken a day's leave so we were given the privilege to do what we wanted in the kitchen before she returned.“W

CHAPTER 137Lenora's Pov “You should leave. I will be okay on my own, I’m not a kid.” I smiled broadly at Richard.“Are you sure about that?” He inquired and I nodded firmly,He kissed me directly on the lips before leaving with Zandov.“Mr. Richard’s wife?” I suddenly heard a soft meek female voice.I turned in the direction where I saw a lady I couldn’t recognize. I slightly raised my eyebrows. “Hello. I’m Ellis, a model.” She introduced and that slightly reminded me of Tara.Tara would probably have been with Richard the whole time, forcing herself around him. “Why don’t you join the ladies at our table?” The lady added.My eyes went over to the table where she had pointed and I saw most of the women of the day chatting in groups and showing off what they wore and what their husbands had gifted them. Even though the women had accompanied their husbands for the day, it was also the avenue to show who was richer than whom and what they had been gifted by their husbands.And the un

CHAPTER 139Richard's POVI walked in the direction of my room after Lenora asked to be alone. I was slightly hurt by that but I tried not to show it, I was hurt but yet I was a little worried. Ever since she woke up from her concussion, Lenora had been acting a bit strange and weird. Out of curiosity, I asked her in the car but she said she was okay. I knew Lenora always tried to keep things bothering her to herself and sort it out by herself but I didn’t like that. What if she ended up getting hurt along the way?I walked into my room which was already arranged by Vanya, and my eyes scanned through my arranged clothes.I pulled off the shirt I was wearing and changed into my blue pajamas. I sat at the edge of my bed bringing out my cell phone and checking the internet for the latest update.I suddenly felt a little bored, I felt a terrible headache and decided to take a bath. The headache had begun the previous night but I didn’t think much of it.I made my way into the bathroom a
