All Chapters of A Kiss And Many Lies: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

EverleighThe morning sun pierced my eyes and I winked while wiping my eyes. I was very weak with this throbbing headache that made me look more miserable.Last night was pretty depressing for me. I tend to be too emotional these days. I cry about the most silly things ever.Ever since Felix told me that Laura had been found, I never took it seriously because the story behind her release was just too generic. Even the blind would know that it was all fake.But yesterday, after I saw a viral post made by my ex-husband, I pinched myself hard to wake up from slumber.Perhaps, I was the only one not on the planet. Things were happening fast before my eyes but I have been naive and completely oblivious to them all.Laura being abducted, and Clyde suddenly proposing marriage to her was one of the things that I had never cared to investigate.I wasn't against their relationship but the fact that I was living like some corpse made me cry. Everything happening was just surreal, but I went comp

FelixLaura and I met as usual In a hotel the following evening. She wasn't moved by what she did the last time. She didn't even apologize for stabbing me but I spared her foul temper this one time.I ordered something light and we began to eat without speaking to each other. I didn't tell Everleigh I was going to stay back late while I was leaving for the office in the morning. She has been avoiding and keeping to herself lately, so I gave her the space she wanted.Cutleries clicked against dishes as I and Laura ate silently without looking into each other's eyes.When I was ready to speak up, I took the clean napkin on the table and wiped my lips.“ Why have you been avoiding my calls since last night? You were lying in the hands of your lover and enemy, I guess." I put a little smile on my face and raised my gaze to Laura.She didn't respond till she finished her food and drank enough wine. Laura's table etiquette quirks. She can never be compared to my Polished Everleigh." Why d

FelixI didn't sleep that night as I kept battling with different thoughts. Our wedding was In seven days yet Everleigh never cared about anything. She's so selfish.Although the marriage was just a contract marriage, I intended on making it a huge one, at least, to make Cylde jealous, but I was beginning to think otherwise because of Everleigh’s late behavior.Glaring at all the gifts I got for her that were just dumped on my bed, a feeling of despair washed over me.Since I was struggling to get a good sleep because of her, I called Grace to get some sleeping pills for me. I have never done that before.Grace got the pills and I didn't hesitate to try them out. In my mind, I thought the drugs would start reacting immediately but it didn't.Rather, It ended up giving me some chills and a throbbing headache just by the left side of my head.“ Alcohol would do," I said and walked to my wine cellar to get my favorite drink, Romanee Conti, to consume.While I walked hopelessly from the w

Felix“ This place is so refreshing and fascinating. Such a sight to behold" Everleigh turned around, admiring the beautiful restaurant I treated her to.“ I know you like it," I replied, pulling a seat for her while I sat opposite her.With my eyes darting around, I caught a glimpse of a waiter and quickly signaled him to come attend us.We placed our orders; however, before the meals came, I decided to break what seemed like good news to Everleigh and discuss our wedding together.“ Why are you staring at me that way? Do you want to consume me with those lusty eyes?" She chuckled when I kept staring at her, thinking how to break the good news." You know I can't get over you, right? You’re my greatest obsession”" Then you're going to die being a pathetic lover boy” She laughed." I don't mind. As long as it's you I'm dying for, then I can remain a pathetic lover. Anyway, I have things to say to you" I pulled my seat to kiss the breast of the table.“ Okay, let's hear it. And it be

EverleighFelix returned home the next day, and I decided to show him the threatening messages I had been receiving lately.I guess this was the same person from the last time while we were in Pennsylvania. Although the phone number was different, I knew It must be the same person.Felix took the phone to go through the message himself. I showed him the first one but he was mad at me for being in danger and keeping it all to myself.“Why did you keep this away from me?" He fumed." I'm sorry. I was just frightened by the message; that is why I didn't tell you,” I explained, yet Felix refused to listen.“ I will find out who the person is and deal with whoever they are," Felix said in a strangling voice.He was all moody when he got back from Las Vegas. I also was too scared to ask him about his trip. Somehow, I feel Felix would find out the truth one day and that would be the end of us.I swallowed hard. “ It's no big deal. I think the person may just be seeking attention. Don't worr
