All Chapters of A Kiss And Many Lies: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Everleigh"Do you plan on marrying me?" The guy who was with me in the room asked, wearing a mischievous grin."Lol, no. But I called you over because I wanted you to..."Before I could complete my statement, I heard footsteps approaching. We both looked at the door, in anticipation for who it was coming to my hospital room.I knew it was Clyde, which left me both excited and angry. I couldn't wait to see the look on his face when he walked in and saw who I was with, by this time of the night. I was yet to get over what I witnessed earlier between him and Laura. To make things worse was the sudden appearance of Madison. Regardless, my mind was made up. I was done with the marriage and I wasn't going to leave quietly. It was a Saturday evening, and the moonlight streamed through the window, casting shadows across the bedroom floor. When Clyde shuttled into the room, I watched his face turn pale as he saw me sitting up on the hospital bed, next to my ex boyfriend.He shone a piercin

EverleighMy heels clicked against the hospital floor as I made my way to the exit. Felix wrapped his hand around my waist, a mischievous grin on his face. We were headed for the hospital hall. He must have dreamt of this day for so long. And in contrast, this was my biggest fear. But we are both happy now. I am excited to be free, and he's excited to be with me again. And get his revenge."This is going to be so dramatic," Felix whispered, feeling slightly nervous and excited as we got closer."You have always loved drama. Don't you remember six years ago?!""You still haven't forgiven me, Ever. You are so strange." Felix rolled his eyes.Before I could reply, we were in the hospital hallway. Clyde stood at the far end, walking towards my ward. A few nurses had walked past Felix and I, but they were too busy to stop and look. Some patients who weren't in a critical condition couldn't help but stand in awe, gazing at the scene that was about to play out."What the fuck is going on

EverleighOne of his domestic workers set my luggage down in the entryway. Felix led me inside his mansion, a smile on his face. "Welcome to my home," he said with a sparkle in his eyes. "Welcome home."I looked at him but said no words. I was lost in thoughts. The Felix that I knew from many years back was different from this man with me here. That man was a pauper, this man is a multi billionaire."Where are we going?" I asked him as we ascended the flight of stairs. "You'll see," He responded, not stopping.He pushed a door open and I strolled into a room that left my mouth agape. "Is this your bedroom?" It was too feminine to be his."No, queen. This is your bedroom." For some minutes I paused, savoring the awesomeness of the room with my eyes wide open. It was like something out of a fairy tale, with a large, luxurious bed in the center, draped in white satin. The walls were painted with my favourite shade of pink, and the furniture was made of mahogany. There were fresh dandeli

Everleigh's POV.I stirred gently on the bed and then I parted my eyelids. I looked at the clock above my head and it was almost ten in the morning. I stood from the bed and shuttled towards the window. I opened the curtains and looked down below. I drew in the fresh morning air and a smile lit up my face. This was a new beginning for me.A hand wrapped around my waist and I felt someone breathe on my skin. I immediately turned around, to see Felix standing behind me with a beautiful smile. "I hope that wasn't inappropriate?" He said to me as he walked with me, back to my bed."Good morning," I replied, perching on the edge of the bed. "Did you sleep well?""Not a wink. We have so much going on at work, I'll be leaving in a few minutes. I came up to check on you before but you weren't awake. I'm glad you're up now. I came to tell you that I'll be leaving and ask if there's something you'll be needing.""I'll be needing nothing, but you can get me anything you want on your way ba

Everleigh's POV.I felt a light tap on my shoulder and my eyes fluttered open. I looked at the lanky man standing before me with a broad smile. His beards appeared slightly bushy, I wondered why I hadn't noticed that in the morning. Regardless, he was a beautiful man. His lips parted in a smile and I felt the rage within me slowly disappear."Welcome," I said to him, sitting up on the bed."Thanks, beautiful. What have you been up to?""Not so much, just destroying the camera you installed in my bedroom.""What?""The cleaners already got rid of the broken bits but you ought to know what I mean. You installed a camera in my bedroom, Felix. Just when I thought I could trust you. Why the hell would you?""I don't get what you're saying." He sounded genuinely confused."Are you saying you didn't install any camera here?""No, ma'am. Why the fuck would I do that?" He threw his hands up in the air, his face showing more confusion than defense."Well, then who was it that had a camera in
