All Chapters of The Billionaire's Temporary Wife: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

“Charlotte,my dear!”Madam Valentina exclaimed in joy.“Grandma.”Charlotte beamed and hugged her.“I was delighted when I was informed you were in my house.I wasn’t expecting you.”“Well,My tour had to come to an end sooner than I originally planned.”“You mean, you’re back home now?”The old woman asked as they both sat down.Charlotte nodded and sighed, deeply.”Well,I was expecting a grand welcome from Ben,but he gave me a grand surprise instead,he’s actually suggesting we break up.”Madam Valentina frowned in disbelief.”No…no,he wouldn’t say something like that.”“He did.I kinda made a tiny mistake and now he wants a break up.”The old woman shook her head.”He didn’t mean that.I’m sure he’s only just angry.You know how he gets when he’s mad.Also,there’s not a single reason acceptable for you two to ever separate.”Charlotte pouted,sadly.”Are you going to talk to him?”Madam Valentina ran a hand through her hair.“Yes.I’ll talk to him.He’ll get a divorce,asap and you two will be toget

*MALIYAH*Those words made me feel like a thousand bullet had shattered through my chest.Knowing I wouldn’t be able to bear hearing him say more than that,I stumbled,almost losing my equilibrium as I darted to my bedroom.I slowly shut the door and leaned again it.*I’ll make the phone call.I’ll get a divorce from Maliyah.I stand to gain a lot by being in-laws with the Watsons.It’s a decision I made a long time ago,I will marry Charlotte.*He’s…he’s…I thought…*You’re the only one who I wouldn’t mind losing sleep for.The only one who I can never get tired of talking to,and the only one who crosses my mind constantly throughout the day.You’re the only one who can make me smile without trying…bring down my mood without the intention and affect my emotions with every action of yours.I can’t explain with just words how much you mean to me,but you’re the only one I’m afraid of losing and the one person I desperately want to keep in my life.*Then why did he say this to me?I thought desp

*MALIYAH*“Alonzo…stop.”I murmured.“Do you want to continue living with him?“I swallowed,feeling so uncomfortable with how close he was to me.It felt as if I was cheating on Ben already.*I’ll make the phone call.I’ll get a divorce from Maliyah.I stand to gain a lot by being in-laws with the Watsons.It’s a decision I made a long time ago,I will marry Charlotte.*These words ran through my head and tears pricked my eyes.How can I cheat on someone who was never really mine?I was doing the right thing.For him.For myself.“Kis…kiss me..”I bit out.“Give me your cellphone.”He whispered,still holding me.I handed it to him.“Relax and close your eyes,okay?”I released a shaky breath and closed my eyes.His lips pressed against mine and all I wanted to do was to push him away.I felt him take hold of one of my hands and placed it on his chest and then he deepened the kiss,taking nibbles and more nibbles of my mouth.I felt appalled.As soon as I heard the camera click,I opened my eyes

“Oh Alonzo,she’s practically living like a ghost right now.She barely eats or sleep.I just don’t know what to do anymore.”Joan lamented to Alonzo.Alonzo sighed.She hardly even respond to his calls and messages.Was she going to sulk over that man forever?He won’t allow that.“Perhaps,she needs to get distracted.I think being home all day does her no good.Does she have anything she wants to do?”“She wants to go to college but college applications aren’t out until a few months time.”“Then she should start up something.A business perhaps.”He suggested.Joan nodded.”That’s a good idea.I’m sure Felicia and I can come up with something.You’re such a good friend,Alonzo.”Alonzo offered her a small smile hoping he would be called her ‘boyfriend’ soon.He felt he was making progress already.Her mother and her aunt were fond of him already.He just needed to make her like him,romantically.Joan stared at Alonzo wishing Maliyah had fallen in love with him instead.He seemed to be such an easyg

*MALIYAH*I stared up at Alonzo.My mind filled with thoughts of Ben.I tried to imagine how life with Alonzo would be and that felt bland.I was still hopelessly in love with Ben.And it scared me to think that I might not feel this overwhelming love for anyone else.I would always think of him.I would always think of Ben when my hand was pressed between my legs.I knew I would always want to say his name if I ever become intimate with another man.He had left his mark on me and nothing I do would ever erase it.I shook my head.”You shouldn’t want me anymore,Lonny.I will always think of him when I’m with you and that won’t be fair on you.”“I know you’re still healing.I know it would take time but I can make you forget about him.”I shook my head again.”If I’m ever able to get over him,it should be on my own.It’s horrible to use a person to forget about another.And besides,people should be together because they’re in love.It’d be incredibly selfish of me to be with you because my chi
