CHAPTER 41

OWEN'S POVMy mind kept drifting to the stranger that called earlier and his terrifying words. His next text made it all more confusing. Charlotte stared at my phone then she stared at me, her eyes widened at the things she just read. “What does he mean by ‘People are after me. Don't trust anyone.’? Who is this person?” She asked and I ran a hand through my hair, frustration taking over me. “He said you're in danger, then proceeded to send this. I don't know if I'm wrong, but whoever it is seems to be looking out for us. The previous texts he sent me were talking about secrets that I needed to know about.” I reasoned but Charlotte looked skeptical about it. “Looking out for us? I don't know, he seems dangerous to me.” She interjected and I let out a frustrated sigh. “Here's what you're going to do for me, make sure you stay indoors throughout. At least until we're sure you're out of danger. Do not meet anyone else except Roselia. I trust that she won't hurt you. I'll find you a b

CHAPTER 42

CHARLOTTE'S POVI buried my face in my pillow as I remembered the look on Caleb's face when he caught Owen and I making out. That was embarrassing but to my utmost surprise, the thought of it made me even more excited.That is definitely weird. What has Owen done to me? A thought suddenly dropped inside my head and the next minute, I was rummaging through my closet. When I found what I was looking for, I raised it up and stared at it in satisfaction. I bit my lip in anticipation as I imagined the look on Owen's face when he saw me in this. I quickly changed out of the clothes I was wearing and put on the lingerie. Oh no, this was a bad idea! Suddenly my door flung open and I screamed as I tried to cover myself. My eyes widened as Owen came in and he stared at me in shock. His eyes took in the view in front of him and something flickered in his eyes. Something that made my insides burn. “I- I was just trying out clothes…” I stuttered and he walked closer, his gaze fixed on me and I

CHAPTER 43

CHARLOTTE'S POVMy head spun wildly as I stared at Micheal in shock. My hand tightened around Owen's and he turned to look at me in alarm as he placed his hand on my cheek. “Are you okay, cupcake?” He asked worriedly and my eyes drifted back to his. My heart relaxed as I realized that I was already married to this romantic billionaire and that he was all I needed. “Can I talk to you for a second?” I asked as I got up and pulled him with me and he got up too. I held his hand and he followed me to the kitchen. “Is something wrong? You're acting strangely.”“Can we not hire him? I don't like how he looks. He looks scary and intimidating.” I lied as I pouted slightly and he chuckled, a look of relief settling on his face. “Cupcake, the scarier he looks, the safer you are. He wouldn't hurt you, he's here to protect you.”“But he looks terrifying!” I whined as my eyes drifted to Micheal and I could see him staring at me, his eyes boring holes into my body. Wait a minute… He made me cry

CHAPTER 44

OWEN'S POVI sighed, devastated at the news I just got from Caleb as I walked back to the room. The company's revenues were dropping drastically. Father won't let me go to work and I can't fix anything from home. I need to have a talk with him as soon as possible. I opened the door to my room and was surprised when I saw the newly appointed bodyguard in the room with my wife. She looked flustered as she saw me, like she had been caught doing something bad. I raised my eyebrow at Micheal and he cleared his throat as he stood straight. “I heard her scream from outside, so I came to check in on her. She had missed her step and fell while trying to get out of bed. All I did was help her get up. I was on my way out when you came in.”I immediately walked over to Charlotte as I looked at her in worry. “Did you get hurt? Why did you get up? I told you to stay still till I'm back.”“I needed to use the bathroom.” She mumbled and she avoided my eyes as she spoke. I waved a hand to dismiss M

CHAPTER 45

CHARLOTTE'S POVMichael's presence has made me nothing but uncomfortable. He always found ways to come close to me. Either by brushing his fingers over mine, walking extremely close to me so that our skins touch and even going as far placing a hand around my waist when no one's there.Owen has been a very romantic husband but he's been having less time for me recently. He's either buried in his laptop, or flipping through different files.I'm laying with my head on his lap right now and he's flipping through files that look so boring. I looked up at him and I fell for him again for the umpteenth time.He looked so attractive with glasses and his hair packed up into a ponytail. I pouted as I tried to get his attention but none of it was working.“You don't love me anymore.” I complained and he glanced at me for a while before returning his attention back to the files.“You're overreacting, Cupcake.” He replied and I folded my hands in annoyance. “I'm not overreacting! You love your pa

CHAPTER 46

OWEN'S POVCharlotte has been acting weird since we left the house. She looked very majestic and ethereal, and it was evident that Roselia did great work on her but something was wrong. She kept avoiding eye contact, she wouldn't let me hold her hand and she kept fidgeting beside me. “Cupcake, I'll ask you this one more time. What is the matter? If you don't feel comfortable about going to the auction, we could make a u-turn right now.” “I said I was fine, Owen. I just feel a bit nervous.” “Then let me help with that.” I mumbled as I took her hands in mine and lifted it to my lips but she quickly pulled away from me as she cleared her throat. My expression turned sour and she turned to look outside the window. Did I do something wrong? “Are you mad at me, sweetie?” I asked, my voice dropping to a low rumble as I inched towards her and placed a hand on her waist. “I said everything is fine!” She snapped and I moved my hand immediately, hurt written all over my face. “I'm sorry.

CHAPTER 47

CHARLOTTE'S POVMy entire body ached as I struggled to open my eyes. A dull throbbing in my head made it all worse and the harsh light made me shut my eyes immediately.I groaned as I opened my eyes slowly to adjust to the light and when I looked around, I realized I was in the hospital. How did I get here?My head throbbed harder as I remembered the incident that happened in the auction hall. Catherine had shown up from nowhere and injected me with something that was probably poisonous.That explains why I'm here. I tried to sit up and I felt someone else move on my bed. I turned to see Roselia sleeping peacefully with her head on the bed. I sat up finally and the movement seemed to wake her up and she jolted up when she saw that I was awake.“You're finally awake!” She looked happy as she held my hands in her and I smiled weakly at her.“Do you remember what happened?” She asked and I looked out the window to see that it was bright as day.“I remember sitting and waiting for whatev

CHAPTER 48

OWEN'S POVEvery word that came out of my mouth felt like I was jabbing a knife into my heart but it had to be said. I have turned my room upside down in anger, cried myself to sleep and drank myself to stupor. Nothing works though as the pain always returns in full fold once I'm sober. Charlotte's eyes were fixed on mine, different emotions swirling through them but I was done caring.“Let's get a divorce, Charlotte.” I proposed and her eyes widened as she stared at me in shock. Of course I didn't mean that. Micheal would win if I did that. “Owen, you need to calm down. Let's settle this amicably-”“There's nothing to settle, Roselia. My wife said I didn't care about her. She said that Micheal cared about her more than I did. Can you explain to her who has been by her side the past week? My company is on the verge of collapsing but I gave it all up just to take care of her even though I knew about her ex-boyfriend.”Roselia let out a sad sigh and Charlotte just stared at me dumbfou

CHAPTER 49

CHARLOTTE'S POVMy whole life crumbled right in front of me as his words shattered my heart. I stood there as I stared at the door, waiting for him to come back and tell me he was kidding. Rose came up to me and tried to take me back to the bed but I shrugged her hands off, my eyes glued to the door. He's definitely coming back. “Char-”“He was kidding, right? He- he just said that to teach me a lesson, right? He's gonna come back in and tell me he was kidding, right?” I asked as I looked at her and the look on her face told me that I was wrong. “Rose, tell me he's coming back! He loves me! He wouldn't marry Catherine, right?” I yelled as I started to lose grip of my consciousness. Rose's worried voice calling out to me was the last thing I heard before everything went blank. When I opened my eyes, it was dark and the room was empty. I sat up and called out for Rose but no one answered me. I burst into tears as fear gripped me and to make things worse, the door creaked open and s

CHAPTER 50

OWEN'S POVThe doctor sitting across me stared at me like I was some alien from space and it almost made me laugh. I don't blame him, my request was… one of a kind.“Mr Owen, do you realize what you just asked me? You want to lose your memory?” He raised a brow at me and I nodded affirmatively.“Not everything, Doc. Just the memories of these last few weeks. I want to forget everything that happened from two weeks ago till now. Is that too much to ask?” I questioned as I leaned back on the chair, my eyes fixed on his.“Why do you want to lose your memory, Sir?” He inquired and I sighed, my heart hurting at the thought of what happened.“My wife hurt me and everytime I think about it, it hurts me. So I want to forget it.” I said and he nodded, he probably understood what I'm feeling.“Why don't you find other means to help yourself stop hurting?” He gave me a strange look and I raised a brow at him.“What ways? Drinking doesn't help. Crying doesn't make me feel better. What else can I
