Chapter: Chapter 106 - The surprise!The two siblings paced to and fro in the waiting room. Their expression held nothing but anxiety as they prayed silently in their hearts for everything to go well.Lillian's mother wasn't excluded. She was called to the hospital immediately Bella and her brother, Don, suspected that Lillian was in labor. Luckily, Mrs. Blake was around the area at that time, so she followed them to the hospital.It had been over an hour since Lillian was taken into the delivery room, and there's been no news from the doctors in charge.This continued for a few minutes until they all sighted the doctor heading their way, and they rushed to him immediately.“Congratulations. She has given birth to a bouncing baby boy.” The doctor voiced out immediately with a light smile.Their once worried look brightened instantly with smiles lingering on their lips.Finally, Bella spoke out with so much enthusiasm, “Can we see them now?”“Of course, you can see them. Come with me.”They all followed the doctor to Lill

Chapter: Chapter 105 - Months Later.....“Ughh, how tasteless can this be?” Lillian chimed in a loud voice that caught everyone's attention.All eyes were shot at her, with only Bella's having the courage to remain on her, unlike the maids who immediately continued what they were doing.Bella's gaze instantly raised a question when she glanced up from her phone.“These are no fun to take! It's really tasteless.” Lillian continued to whine and this time, she tossed the berry in her hand back to the rest in the tray.“Do you want us to get you another fruits?” One of the maids stood in an upright position and asked.They were all new maids. After what happened to Aurora, the maid who committed suicide and Mara, Don replaced the maids and, this time, with a much stricter rule. Lillian shook her head, thereby urging the maid to go back to her previous duty.This was mostly all what Lillian does to the food and even fruits she eats since she became pregnant. It was either disgusting or tasteless like earlier. Things even got wo

Chapter: Chapter 104 - Promise for a change.Bella got a hint of the situation immediately her mood changed, and no words came from her. She heaved a sigh but didn't say a word either.Just then, the door opened, revealing Don. He walked a few steps into the room and paused to stare at Lillian.The family shot him a glance, then back at Lillian. They also got a hint of the situation and guessed they obviously needed some privacy together.“Now that your husband is here, we'll leave you two to talk.” Mrs. Blake said and glanced at the others, and they all nodded.They left the ward as agreed, but that didn't change the aura in the ward. Don and Lillian still maintained their silence as different thoughts ran through their heads.But there was something strange about Don's demeanor. His expression wasn't unreadable as it used to be. This time, she could bet she was able to read some emotions out from his facial expression.One of them was anger, but who was he angry at? Lillian shivered at the thought of him getting angry at the f

Chapter: Chapter 103 - The reason behind her illness.A devilish smile didn't fail to crawl to his face as he attempted to pull the trigger, but all of a sudden, all the armed men in the place pointed their guns towards him, shocking everyone except Don and his personal guards.“You should also get one thing straight, no one escapes my wrath when they look for it.” Don finally voiced out with a dangerous smirk.Rex and Draco were also freed, and they joined the multitude of boys to pointing guns at Pablo. Pablo, whose face was now filled with confusion and shock, gently dropped his hand by his side.“Do you really think that you were the only one with the plans here?” Don's mind flashed back to how he replaced the men that were meant to support Pablo with his.It wasn't an easy thing to do but it was still worth it, especially since it had to with getting Pablo away from Lillian's life forever."What is happening now?" Pablo glanced around him, his mind trying not to accept that he was already outsmarted.This wasn't what he had planned.

Chapter: Chapter 102 - Who wins?Don tucked his gun into his pants as he glared at the men on the ground, some were unconscious while a few were groaning in extreme pain. He didn't waste any more seconds before he left the area.Pablo was actually more prepared, considering the number of guards he had secretly placed in the building. Fortunately, Don and his personal guards were well-trained enough to take them all down. Although, they wouldn't stop trooping into the building, more like they already knew of the intruders.As Don ran up the stairs, he was more vigilant than ever. The occurrence from earlier should never happen again, especially since he had only a limited time.Yes! He was already informed by Sir. Jeffrey about the short time they had to rescue Lillian. He would rather not waste a second out of it even though, three minutes had passed already.He halted when he got to a hallway leading to different rooms. Opening one of the rooms, he concluded he wouldn't be able to make it if he searched through them

Chapter: Chapter 101 - Mark became a victim! Bella stood, glaring at the man in front of her, that if not for just a good reason, she would have strangled him to death right there.After so many days of searching and trying to find him, he was finally found. But then, it was so unfortunate that nothing could be done to him at the moment.“I think you can stop glaring now, else your eyes might pop out any moment.” Mark finally said, not able to endure the harsh gazes he was receiving from Bella.He was roughly tied in a piece on the cold floor, that it was so difficult to even move a body part. Though, he was already in that state before Bella and her brother arrived.“I don't mind, as long as you go down first. And don't think you're doing us a favor here because you're one of the reasons all this is happening.” The hostile glare didn't leave Bella's face as she spat out her anger.“That stupid brother of yours had better f**king bring Lillian back.” Mark retorted with so much loathe behind his voice.Even though Bella's anger k

Chapter: Chapter 85 - His lawyer.~~ Brittany's POV ~~I knew I felt scared, upset, frustrated, and every other emotion with the likes. So, as soon as the call about the culprit came in, I had to leave everything behind to rush over to the station with anger.Mrs. Lucia was the one who kept me busy, at least to keep my mind off the incident until Ace returned home. We'd trimmed flowers while chatting along the way after eating breakfast, and we planned to go grocery shopping together. But our time together didn't last as I left to learn more about the culprit.Coming down to the station to realize that the culprit was just a brother of my father's late driver was never what I expected. I wanted to fume and yell at whomever it was but all of that suddenly vanished when his intentions became known. Not like it justified his actions to have almost shot me to death but somehow I felt guilty about the death of his older brother. To make my sympathy escalate further, they couldn't have a last moment together as he was in j

Chapter: Chapter 84 - Not a first-time offender.~~ Ace's POV ~~I pressed my hand down to the paper, my fingers clinging around the pen as I signed the necessary parts in the documents.Another contract signed. Another business deal bagged. Another collaboration made. My new partner and I shook hands, and I left, my secretary and a few members of my team staying behind to take care of the rest. Now, it was time to head back home as promised. I brought out my phone to check Brittany's reply to my most recent message; a short note to tell her about the meeting that made me leave home early this morning. I already promised to stay with her today, so it was only right she knew of my whereabouts.A smile found its way to my lips as I read her simple reply: Sure. I'll be expecting you soon. But, why was I smiling? Maybe it was the smiley emoji at the end of her message. Something stirred deep within me, tugging at my heartstrings. That made me smile even more.I halted my footsteps to message her back but two feet in black shoes sudd

Chapter: Chapter 83 - A suspect in her Father's accident."Mr. Fox was your boyfriend, true or false?"There was no response."You both still contacted each other secretly even though the late Mr. Fox wasn't permitted to make phone calls, am I right?"There was still no response despite the long silence that followed in the dimly lit interrogation room."Miss Lora, are you going to remain silent?" The male detective asked, his tone laced with frustration and he sighed lowly. "We'll go nowhere if you continue like this.""Then ask better questions!" Lora fired, eyes shooting toward the detectives in a glare. Her hands trembled slightly on the table but she tried so hard to hide the fact that fear lingered inside her."I'm only doing my job, young Miss.""By trying to make me the suspect of murder, right? I'm not a fool not to realize all the questions that are being thrown at me are obviously because of what you think." The detective sighed again, bowing his head for a while. "We haven't concluded the incident to be murder which is why we wa

Chapter: Chapter 82 - Anxiety.~~ Brittany's POV ~~A sharp, long-stretched moan escaped my lungs as soon as Ace's finger pushed its way inside me. He pulled his finger out and went in again with a pause, letting my walls give in to the adjustments as he rubbed my clit with the other four fingers. Everything was slow at first, not until he began to thrust in and out of me, his tempo increasing in a few second intervals.I felt his fingers double inside me, and then it tripled, earning a whimper from me. Even when he had informed me that the room was soundproofed, I still feared letting all the sounds out could make someone hear us but it seemed as if my body and desires were failing my thoughts. He readjusted his position, fully settling in between my legs, and what followed next almost set my entire system ablaze with pleasure. His cold tongue grazed my warm flesh, its wetness darting in and out of my V, teasing me in a way that my mind went blank at that moment. The feeling was infuriating and, at the same time,

Chapter: Chapter 81 - What she wanted.~~ Ace's POV ~~Meeting her at the hospital premises was unexpected. I mean, I had gone there only because of personal reasons - to find out someone I still believed could just be a figment of my imagination. But, it was all thanks to that reason that a tragedy didn't occur today. If I hadn't sighted the gunman earlier to have gotten Brittany out of sight before the gunshot, then what would have happened?Whoever the masked gunman was, had targeted Brittany because he vanished right after firing just one bullet at her. When I tried to find him again, he was gone and the people who witnessed the scene didn't know of his whereabouts as well. It was like he just vanished into thin air. But that was for a matter of time. I would find him soon and he wouldn't know what hit him."We've found the gun that was used near the crime scene. Once we get a person who matches the descriptions you gave, we'll add him to the wanted list. Although it might not be easy, since his face was covered.""Do

Chapter: Chapter 80 - He has PTSD.~~ Brittany's POV~~"I'm sorry if I had kept you waiting. There were some emergency matters that I had to deal with." Dr. Marvin's apologetic tone sounded from behind as he walked to his seat and I nodded quietly."It's fine. I'm just here to make finding about these." I brought out the same drugs I had mistaken to be mine earlier and left them scattered on the doctor's desk.He only stared at it for a brief moment and an almost inaudible sigh left his lips. His hands moved forward to link together on his desk. "Whose drugs are these? I didn't prescribe them to you.""I know and that's what I came to figure out. However, I have an idea of who it belonged to, and I want to confirm with you. Just tell me nothing but the truth." I said in hush tones but he kept quiet.That wasn't what I wanted. I wanted answers but his blank gaze told me he was hesitating from explaining things to me."Fine, you don't have to explain anything to me. As his wife, I have the right to ask questions about hi

Entangled with the Imperious Billionaire
“How could you both do this to me?” Matilda's voice trembled as her eyes darted from her best friend to her husband, whose sweats were dripping, obviously from the adulterous act he just committed.
Her disappointed self wanted to hear an explanation, an excuse, or something and wished all was just a mistake but.....
“You came in just in time.” He uttered with no iota of remorse as he fixed his pants and belts.
“What? Eduardo!”
“You've seen and heard it all, so what now? Want me to start telling some boring story and silly excuse? Hell no, young lady!” He raised a brow, and Matilda couldn't believe her eyes and ears.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~Extract~~ “Please, help me. I'm willing to do anything. Just help me get revenge and my inheritance back.”
“Your life became mine from the moment you witnessed that man's death. What makes you think I'll help the life which I want to end badly even at this moment? I just need two reasons.” He smirked dangerously.

Chapter: Chapter 10 - She calls the shot.**IN AMERICA** Faint groans mixed with the gentle clicks of the French luxury leather black shoe against the marble floor were all that was heard until Eduardo halted. His gaze was transfixed on the men lying almost lifeless on the floor, blood pooled around them in their clothes turned rags. "After so much torture, they're still claiming not to know where she is hiding. They don't even want to speak about what happened on that night she was supposed to be killed." Scott, his personal assistant said, bowing slightly at his arrival. "Really?" Eduardo scoffed. "So, Matilda suddenly rose from the dead and grew wings to foil my plans? What happened to the killing I ordered? Nobody could complete such a simple task!" His last words came out in a frustrated yell that had every guard in the vault bowing their heads in shame. Scott drew in a sharp breath, quietly waiting for his boss's anger to subside a little. "Personally, I think this will lead us nowhere. We should increase our sea

Chapter: Chapter 9 - An unprepared trip.Staring at the stylized monogram 'X.V.LR' boldly written on the luxurious golden airframe, Matilda stood there contemplating whether to go inside or not, her long blonde hair dancing in the air behind her. Racing thoughts that made her escape reality filled her head as barely any of the things happening in the hangar came to her notice. Just the night before, she had returned to where her legs took her and that led to an unprepared trip the next day. After signing the divorce papers, her lawyer had prepared and sent them to her husband, now turned Ex; the only thing that came to mind was voluntarily heading into the mansion of a man she barely knew. A man whom she was yet to uncover his identity fully. But it was better for her. It was better than staying with people she believed she trusted, but it turned out they could decide out of nowhere to torture and end her life like she never existed. But, why was she suddenly hesitating? Until then, she was only determined to leave N

Chapter: Chapter 8 - A divorce paper."Breakfast is ready, ma'am." The maid knocked twice before announcing."I'll be downstairs in a bit."She left afterward, and the door opened shortly, revealing Matilda fully dressed in a yellow jumpsuit paired with black ankle strap heels and a matching bag. She quietly shut the door behind her and made her way to the dining area.Upon getting closer, she found Eduardo and Tiffany already eating together as they sat beside each other. It was just the two of them there but immediately Tiffany noticed her presence, she went further by acting all clingy around Eduardo. Something Matilda once did on daily basis, and it irked her so much, but she tried not to let her anger get the best part of her.She didn't walk back into the marriage, just to get back with a cheating husband. Especially not one who almost had her killed intentionally. Knowing fully well that her life was already in danger, the only thing on her mind was to get back everything they stole from her. Even if it required r

Chapter: Chapter 7- First phase of her revenge plan.Inside a tall and giant building, men and women of prominence and high status walked around in the well decorated and fancied hall. Some ate and drank on chairs and tables set in order, some stood with the bereaved family to console them while some rather discussed businesses, using the gathering as a means of getting more business connections.A soft instrumental music played in the background, entertaining those who cared to listen. Today was the funeral which the Smiths' family prepared for the supposed dead Matilda Smith, and they were precisely in the reception after they've buried a body they didn't know was only a replacement.The instrumental music finally ended, earning a loud ovation from the audience and that was when Eduardo walked up to the stage. His expression was looking very much sad, just as how it had been since his wife's death was pronounced to the whole country.“First, I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to everyone who made it here today.

Chapter: Chapter 6 - Meeting with her Savior.“His room is at the far end of the hallway. Turn to the right door and knock gently. Remember ma'am, gently as he hates noises.” Those words from the servants replayed in Matilda's head as she stood in front of the door.She made to knock on the door gently like she was told earlier, but her hands would halt midway near the door, just as it had been for over a minute now. Despite summoning courage a while ago to come and see Xander, it seemed like all her courage suddenly disappeared now that she was in front of his door. She wanted to know why he saved her and brought her to his mansion, and her mind couldn't accept the fact that the same man who had killed a person in her presence rescued her from her harsh reality. It just sounded unbelievable to her.Finally mustering her courage once again, she shut her eyes and took three consecutive deep and sharp breaths, acting like she was going to face a challenge or something. She opened her eyes and knocked twice quickly on the door.“C

Chapter: Chapter 5 - Her saviour.“I cross-examined her, and she is okay now. She fainted due to shock and would wake up in a short while. So, when she does, she should eat and take the drugs to relieve her of after effects like headaches.” The doctor explained after packing his things into his box.He turned to Xander and bowed, “I'll take my leave now.” He quietly filed out of the room, and Bruno followed him to settle the bills.Xander remained in the room, alone with an unconscious Matilda on the bed. All the time the doctor had given his instructions, he was barely listening as his attention was fully focused on Matilda. Despite her long dark-blonde curly hair scattered over her face, he still didn't fail to take in the shape of her almond like eyes, pointed nose, mouth in the form of a heart and her overall oval-shaped face. His eyes trailed down to her feet, even when she was covered in a duvet. Then, they moved back to her face.His expression was neutral, yet his mind was slightly bothered. For the first tim
