All Chapters of The Billionaire's Contract Wife : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Alexander's POV "Huh!" She exclaimed and I chuckled to myself. "This is going to be an interesting week." I thought. Let's see if she would be able to resist my god-like body all through the week. Larry took the keys from the receptionist and we headed for the elevator. In the elevator, I glanced over at Layla who stood at the far end, her face flushed. She looks so cute, confusion etched on her face. I'm so sure she is occupied with the thoughts of us sharing a room together for a week. "Boss, are you sure you want to share a room with her?" Larry asked, looking up at me. "You are free to share a room with me instead. I can bear with you for a week." He gestured, opening his arms wide to envelope me in a hug, a mocking glint in his eyes. I rolled my eyes. "No way will I share a room with you!" the elevator dung and I kicked him out. I waited for Layla and we walked out. As we exited the elevator, Layla lagged behind, and I found myself slowing down to match her pace. "Boss, wo

Layla's POVI opened my eyes slowly. The light made my eyes ache so I quickly closed it.The sun shone in through the curtains.For how long have I been out? I wondered. I stood up slowly and my headache greatly.What happened to me? I tried remembering last night's occurrence.Amelia! My eyes darkened as I remembered.She was the one who made me into this.I recollected my encounter with her last night. I went to the ladies room, and there I saw her, standing with her back resting on the door. She wore an evil glint.I was shocked and fear washed over me. I asked her what she was doing there because non invited guests weren't allowed."I have my ways, bitch." She said, with a smirk."So what do you want from me?" I asked, trying my best to hide my fear. She walked closer to me. With a malicious glint, she raised my chin up with a finger. "I want you out of Alex's life!" Her voice sent shivers down my spine.Her threat was supposed to make me scared and leave Alex, but surprisingl

Alexander's POVWhen did I become so soft-hearted?Layla's behavior caught me off guard. I had only been rejected once by Zara, and I don't want to experience that again. I broke free from the hug, my expression darkening as I gazed into her eyes. "I don't love you," I said, trying to sound convincing. "I was just being stupid. How could I have fallen for someone like you? I'm sorry for the inconvenience. Let's just get this fake marriage over with." I stormed away, leaving her stunned.I packed my bags and left the hotel, boarding the next flight to Las Vegas. My inside burned with rage. How dare she reject me? I vowed to teach her a lesson, to show her what it really means to live with a devil.Why do I always get rejected by women? How on earth did I fall in love with her? I wondered.My heart wandered to her, and I felt bad for leaving her behind all by herself. What if Amelia returns to hurt her? My heart tightened at the thought.I quickly dialed Larry's number. He picked up th

Layla's POVI skipped dinner that night, too angry to eat. I rushed to my room, collapsed on the bed, and stared blankly at the ceiling. "Why am I mad at him?" I asked myself. "I knew what I was getting into. I should be happy he is back to his old self." I comforted myself.Just then, there was a knock at the door. I hesitated, thinking it might be Alex, but as the knocking persisted, I got up to answer it. To my surprise, it was Nora, one of the maids, carrying a tray of food. "Nora, what are you doing here?" I asked, staring at the maid in gratitude.Nora smiled warmly. "I brought you some food, ma'am. You shouldn't go hungry just because of the boss's behavior." She set the tray down on the table and added, "I wish I could stay and keep you company, but I have a lot of work to do." With that, she left the room.I smiled, feeling a surge of appreciation for Nora's kindness. Nora was the only staff member who genuinely cared for me, and I cherish our friendship.I sat down to enjoy

Layla's POVI adjusted my designer gown, feeling like a princess for the night. Alex had sent me to represent him at the charity gala, as he had other important matters to attend to.What was he thinking? I thought. Sending me to a place like this on my own! I am his wife, after all.I smiled as I remembered his words to me before I entered the car. "You are brave and smart, and I love you." He said, and he gave me a gentle kiss.I sipped my champagne as I mingled with the guests. I noticed a man staring at me from across the room. He was handsome, but his eyes seemed intense. I shrugged it off, focusing on the evening's purpose. I was undoubtedly the best dressed. Alex has an exceptional taste. He had adorned me in the finest attire, a stunning black flow gown, that cost a lot of money. I dare not dwell on the price, the extravagant cost was mind blowing!Later, I saw Amelia approaching me with a sly smile. Why is she always everywhere? I wondered."Layla, darling, you look stunni
