All Chapters of Bound by Deception.: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Alexander's POV I found it odd receiving texts from an unknown sender. In fact, I didn't pay much attention until this sender mentioned Fiona. The first text said, "Fiona isn't really who you think she is."I wondered who it was for days, hoping another message would be sent. Then, a few hours ago, it finally was. The text read: "You must have heard about the Wilsons, right? The ones your father had burned alive? Well, their only daughter is sitting right in front of you: Gabriella Wilson."I walked into my room, destroying everything in sight.Anna came running in, "What's wrong? Stop it," she held me down. My fury didn't allow me to think about my hatred for her."Get out," I yelled, pushing her out and slamming the door.Frederick, who had gone on some errands, ran in, bowing slightly with his eyes roaming the shattered glass. "Sir, what happened?""There's no need to find those couple's daughter; I found her already," I was broken. The only reason Fiona would have come back into

Fiona's POVOne might be wondering why I went to Antonio's house and even had sex with him. But, as always, I had another motive. The sex wasn't part of it.I watched him lay asleep in his most beautiful form while I slipped on my dress and tip-toed out of the bedroom. My eyes navigated the whole house.I walked into the study room, looking over my shoulder in case he popped out of nowhere. I hurried to the computer and turned it on."Shit, password," I bit my lip, trying all the possible passwords I could think of. "Wait," I snapped. "My birthday?" I input that, and it worked.I quickly read through all the files related to the construction company. Antonio had enough evidence to bring them down, but why didn't he?I clicked on an image, the blueprint of the company. I took a quick shot of everything related to the construction company, about to shut it down when a video caught my attention. It was mine from the orphanage home. A tear dropped down my face. "Silly boy, why does he hav

Fiona's POVI watched as he slept soundly, turning around like a little baby. I couldn't believe I was the first person he called when drunk. Somehow, I felt alright, but then I felt different."What are you thinking about?" Alexander said, looking into my eyes with both hands clasped below his cheek."You're awake. You can leave now," I said, clearing my throat and turning to go, but he held me down."Why did you come pick me up?""Because you called, and Frederick wasn't answering my calls," I snapped, trying to release his grip."Thank you," he whispered, letting my hand go. "I have to go. I don't want the paparazzi thinking we're back together," he said, buttoning up."Your phone... why is my name saved as 'Heartbreaker'?" I asked, feeling a bit petty."Privacy, Fiona. And what are you?" He walked past me, heading for the door."You know I loved you, right? I would have done anything for you," I blurted out. "Anything.""Yeah, you did everything, using me to get revenge on my fami

Five Years Later...Alexander's POV"And I assure you, we've elevated our standards; the Brooks Company will never let its customers down," I said with a smile as the interviewer signaled her crew to stop recording."Thank you so much, Mr. Alexander Brooks. Again, it's an honor having you here today.""Again, it's my pleasure, Miss Zoe," Frederick approached me, "is the car ready?" He nodded. As I tried to leave, Zoe stopped me."May I ask, Mr. Brooks?" she asked with a giggle, "has the divorce been finalized?"I smirked. "If it had, you would have been the first to know. You always have your sources.""It's better hearing it from the horse's mouth," she smiled back. "I hope you're doing well?"I knew where that question was aimed. I nodded lightly. "I am, thank you. And this will be the last time I come on your show this year. You've made a lot of money thanks to me.""Yes, sir," she laughed, walking away.I turned to Frederick. "Make sure you give Sabrina the money she demanded, and

Fiona's POVIt was a magnificent sight to behold. The statue stood tall, with a water fountain beneath it. The light emanating from the building shone on my black crystal gown, which revealed a good amount of my curves.I placed my hands in Harden's, smiling as he led me out of the car.It was his company's grand opening event, and all the elites were definitely there. I hoped I wouldn’t bump into Alexander."Relax," Harden whispered in my ear, placing his hands on my hips. "If you don’t want to be here, I can tell the driver to take you back.""It's your big event; I owe you my presence," I smiled, holding his hands tightly as we faced the building.We walked in, and I could hear gasps from the crowd. Harden held me close, sensing my fear. Soon we were in the hall, where a thousand eyes turned to me, whispering loudly.My gaze caught Alexander's. He looked calm, not paying much attention to Harden. I saw Frederick whisper something into his ear, and soon after, Alexander was gone."W
