[ Xavier ]I was busy interacting with my guests when my eyes landed on the only person whom I wanted to see tonight. She walked inside the hall in a shimmery red dress with her friend behind. Her hawk like eyes searched for someone and my eyes followed her keenly. She was a red sign and I don’t want her anywhere near my loved ones.When her gaze fell on my wife and she smiled sinisterly, my sixth sense alerted me. I excused myself from my guests and made my way in their direction but she was already shaking her hand with my wife.“I heard about your accident and trust me, Adeline. I was worried about you.” I heard her saying to my wife and my blood boiled. This woman was trying to rub salt on our wounds, specially Adeline.“I didn’t expect you to come, Miss Jones and Miss Candance but we’re glad to have you here. Please, enjoy the party.” I said placing my both hands on Adeline’s shoulders from behind.Emily’s smirk dropped seeing me and my closeness with Adeline.“Mr. Linwood, thank

[ Adeline ]Arnold was holding the microphone in his hand, his eyes were on the people who had been waiting for him to end the suspense. His face looked guilt free and a strange calmness settled on his old, sick face.“Good evening, my dear friends and my family. I know you all have been wondering why my son called me here to address you all, right?” He began his speech.I held Xavier’s hand tightly to wait for the moment.“Forty years ago, my first wife and I took over the control of this company. People used to call us the ‘power couple’ and we actually proved that our coordination wasn’t only limited to our house but also in our business. She laid the company to a new zenith and even built her own company by her hard work and passion. Sadly, I lost her. I and my son grieved her death but it didn’t stop us from fulfilling her dreams. My daughter-in-law is the reflection of my wife. Tonight, I am feeling very proud to announce my retirement because I am suffering from cancer and I ha

[ Adeline ]The guests were gone, the party ended on a good note because our security was tight and there were more than hundred media persons who were capturing the whole event but I was impatient for the party to end soon because I am always an after party lover.“Arnold, what was that?” Linda pointed her painted nail at her husband once we assembled in one place, her eyes reflected the betrayal she received from the man whom she robbed all these years.“I think you have good knowledge of English language, Linda. I am setting you free from your responsibilities. You have your whole life ahead of yourself. Live your life as you wish. All these years, you played my wife’s role and you have been good at it. I do not want to die with the guilt of ruining twenty-right years of your life.” Arnold again answered her very calmly.“Cut the crap, Mr. Arnold Linwood. You never accepted me and Mom. For you, she’s just your mistress and I am a mistake. You ripped me off my birthright and gave it

[ Adeline ]“What the hell just happened, Xav? Your father completely nailed it. I mean it came like a four-hundred watt shock to me, I can’t I imagine how Linda must be feeling. Arnold flipped her world in a blink of moment.” I said once we were back to our home. Mom decided to stay with Addison since she was worried for her safety.Xavier was unusually quiet. He didn’t respond to me which made me worried about him, it wasn’t easy for him to witness the fall of his family, a family which was the biggest illusion. I grabbed his hand and then he looked at me with those sad eyes.“Hey, you can talk to me.” I looked at him, it was my silent gesture to make him feel better and an unsaid promise that I am always with him.He exhaled a deep breath and sat down on the edge of the sofa.“Xavier, I am here for you. Please, talk to me.” I insisted him in a soft voice. Sometimes, he needs to be cracked as he doesn’t open up easily.“I don’t know what to say, Ade. Linda and Arthur paid for their

[ Xavier ]A week has passed. My life is similar to a land after a storm. I haven’t heard from Emily. She had to withdraw her plea from the court as I refused to pay her anything except the fixed deposit. It was her money which I couldn’t claim.After killing my baby, she deserves only hell and I know what’d be my next step. I heard from Candance that she’s applying for jobs in different companies and receiving rejection due to her under qualification. Suddenly, my intercom buzzed. I put it on speaker.“Sir, you received a call from your friend, Mr. Harris. He said that he received resume of Ms. Jones for the position of assistant manager at one of his VIP clubs. Shall I transfer the call to you?” My P.A. said from the other side.“Yes, please.” I said and an idea popped in my mind. I got the perfect chance to give her a taste of her own medicine.“Okay Sir, I am transferring his call to you.” He said and after a beep sound, I heard M. Harris’ voice who owns a chain of clubs.“Good af

[ Adeline ]“Oh My God! Please…Xavier..” I moaned as I felt near my first orgasm in days, my fingers fisted his hairs and pushed his face more into my core.His hands were grabbing my breasts while his tongue lapped on my pussy. It had been two weeks since my plaster was removed and after a few sessions of physiotherapy, I was fit like before. Today, when we came back from the work, we collided while he was coming out of the bathroom just in towel and then, our patience gave up and he ended up pushing us back inside the bathroom.He flickered his tongue on my slit before inserting it in my folds, I arched my back as a wave of ultimate pleasure waved through my body cells. I was craving for this skilled man.My eyes rolled, I placed my palms over his hands which were on my breasts and pressed them more on my hardened nipples. He lapped more on my pussy, circling his tongue and pumping it inside out. It was an experience beyond the worldly description. Suddenly, when I was about to rele

[ Adeline ]Finally, I feel like our lives were back on the track. Arthur and Linda went low profile, our security team has been keeping a close eye on them but nothing suspicious caught their attention yet. Speaking of Emily, I had no idea about her. Arnold is taking his treatment but he’s getting weak day by day and we’re mentally prepared for anything.Mom is seeing Mr. Paul and Addison is busy in her own life. We hardly interact and I don’t want us to act like two sisters who love each other. I and Xavier are closer than ever. We become inseparable because I work two days in a week as the CEO of Linwood Corp. Two jobs at the same time are difficult sometimes but Xavier supports me in everything.A knock on my office door forced me to divert from the report I was reading and looked up. Xavier was peeking through the door with a smile. I sat straight and took off my reading glasses. He waved at me.“Ready to go or you still have work to wrap up first?” He asked me.“Yeah, this is th

[ Adeline ]“Why this place is very quiet? I mean there’s no rush and loud music and crowd?” I asked my husband whose hand was on the small of my back. He was leading me inside the club which looked classy and really expensive.“This is one of the busiest and crowdy club in the city but today, I have booked it so you won’t feel uncomfortable.” He replied and I gasped. I blinked my eyes to make sure that I heard him right. His face didn’t show that he was joking.“Oh God! You’re unbelievable, Xavier.” I shook my head.“Why, you don’t like my first surprise?” He frowned.“Definitely not, Mr. Linwood. This is a club not a shrine where I’d prefer peace and silence. A club means, crowd, music, dance and a lot of alcohol.” I said as a matter of fact and his smile dropped.“Ops, it means I was wrong. Don’t worry, there’s a huge crowd outside the main entrance. I’ll tell the club manager to give access to limited people since it’s not good for our security.” He said and dialled someone’s numb

[ Adeline ]To say, I wasn’t surprised to find Emily in the uniform of the club staff, it’d be a plain lie because I couldn’t blink my eyes even for a second. Her condition was no different than me. She looked more embarrassed than shocked.“Oh, Ms. Jones, it’s quite shocking for us to find you here. When did you start working here?” Xavier, who had an amused smile on his face, didn’t look surprise.“Mr. Linwood, what are you doing here?” She asked bluntly.“I guess you already know. We are your VVIP customers and it’s your duty to please us if you don’t want us to give bad review about this club, always known for serving their rich customers and you know what does this mean?” He raised his brow at her in challenging manner.Her red face indicated that she wanted to retort back but she refrained herself since it was her job to show us respect.“What can I do for you, Sir?” She asked him with folded hands and bowed head.I didn’t want to be a bitch but her vulnerable condition gave my

[ Adeline ]Emily’s threat kept replaying in my head, I wanted to move forward and convince myself that it was her resentment which made her openly threat me. She isn’t in a position to hurt us.Life seemed almost perfect. Xavier leaves no chance to make me feel special. He is the best husband a girl can find and I am one lucky woman. I pray everyday that my life with Xavier never attracts evil eyes. We don’t miss any chance to make our moments memorable. Tonight is among them. We have invited Travis, Mr. Paul, Mom, Blaze and Lisa for dinner at our home.Guess what?I and Xavier decided to cook the dinner by ourselves. The kitchen staff giggled seeing us fighting over random stuffs and romancing while cooking for our family and friends.“Check on the ice-cream, Xavier. I think it’s set.” I instructed him while I seasoned my grilled chicken and fish with pepper and cheese curry. We had cooked many dishes, from his side to mine. We kept everyone’s favourite cuisines in mind.“Did you ch
