All Chapters of A Kiss And Many Lies: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

EverleighWhen I woke up, I found Felix sitting by my side with his head resting on the couch. Maybe he was catching some sleep because his eyes were shut.The movement of my body caught his attention and he opened his eyes slightly.“ Are you okay?" He asked me and I nodded my head as a sign that I was just fine.I remember we were to leave Pennsylvania that morning so I asked, “ When are we leaving for Wellington?*" That will be by noon tomorrow. I can't just put you at risk of driving a far distance. I'm not that heartless” Felix did not look at me for once while he spoke.I noticed his cold behavior towards me from the way he was responding to me.“ We could have just managed, Felix. I was only hungry and not sick. Thanks anyway, that was so thoughtful of you. I will be in my room right now"I stood up to leave but Felix's voice interrupted me.“ I'm sorry for everything” Moments Felix apologized, it seemed something died in me and I gave a deep breath.Defrosted, I turned to

Clyde“ Hey babe. Oh my goodness, please I'm sorry" Laura apologized, running towards me.I noticed it was a man that dropped her off but his identity remained unknown to me. He drove off immediately and dropped Laura.“ What's the meaning of this, Laura? Where are you coming from by this time?Do you know what this action of yours has cost me? And who the hell is that jerk that dropped you off?” my anger burned towards Laura. I couldn't believe that all my efforts in fixing our engagement party ended up for a reason best known to Laura.She finally walked up to me and immediately put on a pitiful face and hugged me.“ Oh, come on, Laura" I pulled her from her, angry. “ I need an explanation!"" I swear, I never planned any of these” She began to sob. " Actually, I would have been here since 4pm. But I drove into some goons who took my car and almost molested me…”" Huh” I grabbed Laura's shoulders, checking her out In fear if she was injured or something. “ Did they lay a finger on

Everleigh“ I don't want to have this conversation. It's been a long day, Ever. I will just be in my room”Felix walked away feeling embittered by my words. To be honest, I have been skeptical about agreeing to keep this pregnancy for Felix. Another man’s child?“ Fuck, Ever. Wake up" I hit my head continually as If it would help me come back to my senses.Our wedding has been fixed and In less than two weeks, I would be standing before the altar to take my vows. How sure am I that Felix doesn't have interior motives behind his actions?It is weird and abnormal for a man to accept to marry a woman who's pregnant for another man. Even though it's a contract marriage, it doesn't make sense.Dinner was served and we ate in silence. I noticed how Felix sometimes looked at me with some much worry and contempt. I guessed I hurt him badly with my words earlier.He took a few more bits of his chicken parmesan before lifting his gaze to me.“ We’ll be going to the hospital for your prenatal fi

Felix“ Listen, Rose, I need you to do a background check on my partner, Everleigh. I need to find out about her family. Secondly, I will be needing you to tail on her. In other words, you are going to befriend her and be a constant visitor in my mansion. You must report her moves to me.Name your price. All I need Is a perfect clean job. I have a lot to handle in the office. I don't have the time to investigate this myself.” I said and opened my laptop to show Rose something from inside.Rose nodded after I showed her the picture of Madison Clark, who seemed to have something to do with Everleigh.“ Who's she?" Rose pointed at the picture of Madison from my laptop, seeking clarification. She was a bit amazed by the job I was assigning to her but didn't ask any questions or interrogate me.“ She's Madison Clark, the popular and famous daughter of Clark Moore. She seems to have a deep relationship with my partner. Find out what it is between them. Do this as soon as possible” I pull

Everleigh“ Felix" My eyes widened in disbelief. “ What are you doing here?" Felix was shocked to see me. I had come to the hospital that morning to conduct another test since I didn't believe all that his Doctor had explained to us.I was just as shocked as Felix himself. How did he know I was coming to this hospital?Gazing surprisedly at me, Felix grabbed my hands, his eyes, hungry for an answer." Why are you here, Ever? Did you do anything stupid to my kids? " Felix grabbed the paper in my hands, his eyes scanning me to know if something was unusual.We stood in the crowd, transfixed by how we got to meet each other in the hospital, but I noticed Felix's shirt was messed up and full of blood stains, although I didn't see any sign of injury In his body.I became more curious and asked, “ What happened to you? Did you get hurt?" My eyes scorched Felix with a bated breath, but he, too, was carried away with the results in his hands and did not answer me till he was done reading th
