(Leigh’s POV)
“Time for breakfast!” I tilted my head, calling Alex and Kayla after serving the leftover ravioli we had last night, bread, and coffee.
“Time to have breakfast, Leigh?” Alex curved a naughty smile on his lips as he wrapped his arms around my waist from behind. I gasped, feeling drenched as I remember him saying that in the bed a while ago.
Heat crept to my face, and I knew I was apple red when Alex playfully bit my cheeks. I giggled, moving away from him as I saw Kayla coming.
“I told Arman this is a bad idea staying in your apartment,” Kayla rolled her eyes as she sat down. “Arman was asking when you’ll visit the restaurant again?”
Alex raised his eyebrows. “Arman?”
He knew Arman was working in the accounting department in
(Leigh’s POV)“Kayleigh David -”“Hearst,” I added. I am becoming used to hearing my last name as Hearst. Alex was in the bathroom when Kayla pulled me in the main door before leaving for her conference.“Tell me, why are you seeing that family lawyer?” She snarled but in a low voice. Her eyes were glaring at me, wanting me to spill my secret. “Are you signing a post-nuptial agreement? Papa will-”I rolled my eyes at her. “Relax, Kayla. I just met Chase at the wrong time, but he’s really Alex’s cousin,” I looked directly into her eyes for her to know I wasn’t lying to her.She sighed, hugging me. “I’m leaving, and don’t wait up for me.” She has still that worried look in her eyes as she released me and opened the door. &ldq
(Leigh’s POV)Alex shook his head, smiling at me mischievously. “You have to tell me what you want, Leigh, or else I will have to stop this.”How can I let him stop when his hand trailed down to my knots of pleasure, and his fingers were softly touching my berry? Besides, I don’t want him to stop. What he was doing was so addicting that I wanted more.He licked my nipple, causing me to whimper.“You should stop now, Alex,” I cried, but I was arching my breast to his face.“Okay,” he said as his long finger pushed inside my core. I gasped and moaned at the delightful feeling. “I should stop now,” he pulled his finger slowly and then added another finger as he pushed again inside my slit.I grasped the sheets of the bed and cried in pleasure as h
(Alexander’s POV)Where did my wife get her strength and appetite for this? I kissed her forehead and met her eyes. “Want another round, Leigh?”She shook her head and smiled. “I’ll die if we have another one, Alex.”I laughed at her, pulling her to me and wanting to prove to her she won’t die if we had another one, but my cellphone made a loud noise, startling Leigh and me. I reached out for my phone, smiling as I answered George.“I told them you’re still on leave, boss, so don’t worry about it! I had it covered,” George said before I could greet her. My eyes widened as I glanced at the time on my wristwatch.“Shit! I missed the board meeting,” I pursed my lips for a second and then laughed, but it was too late because Leigh had already heard it. Her
(Leigh’s POV)Ten.This was the tenth time I yawned, and despite the black coffee Dyna gave me, she would still catch me shutting my eyes tight, opening and blinking my eyes.“Did you stay up all night?” she propped her elbows on the table, still holding the tray she used in giving Alex and George their coffee and cakes. The two went to the corner of her café, and George seemed to be discussing something important to him, showing some stuff from her tablet. “Who’s with Alex?” she puckered her lips at her, then turned her gaze at me.I glanced at George, crossing her legs as she wrote on the tablet after Alex pointed at it. “George, her secretary,” I answered, sipping coffee again.“Just a secretary?” She raised her eyebrows, and like me, her eyes narrowed at her l
(Leigh’s POV)As if it was a big deal, I smiled and said proudly, “You must have missed it when he corrected you, Wendell. I go by Mrs. Kayleigh David Hearst now.”“So, Mrs. Hearst, can you start the cake tasting now because I really want to go home now,” Alex kissed me on the cheeks and placed his hands on my shoulders, pushing me gently to the other table.“Boss,” George called, causing us to turn to her. “Does that mean I’ll go shopping for-”Alex groaned. “Yeah, I remember.” He shakes his head. “I won’t miss the joy of shopping with my wife, George. Go home and enjoy with your friends.”“Thanks, Boss! You’re the best. Bye, Kayleigh!” she waved at Wendell before going to the staff, taking the paper bags of cupcakes.
(Alexander’s POV)Amend the contract?I slowed down and stopped the car on the side of the road, snatched the phone from her, and ended the call. “Why Leigh? Is one percent not enough?” I snarled at her. “How much percentage do you want?”I hissed, pressing my lips together because it was not what I meant to say, but it was too late.Her wide eyes suddenly narrowed as she unbuckled her seatbelt. “What do you think of me? You son of a -”She growled at me and surprised me when she opened the car door and walked away. I massaged my forehead, roaring back at her, but I panicked and unfastened my seatbelt when I realized she was not coming back.“Leigh!” I yelled, and though she could still hear me, she was not turning back. I had to walk faster to catch up wi
(Alexander’s POV)The shopping for kitchen and dining wares was faster than I thought. What held us up was the issue of paying, but in the end, I won when I told her I would let her pay for everything her new baby needed.She stopped at the entrance of the pet shop, breathing out before pushing the door. Leigh is like a child going inside a toy store. She was so excited, but when she saw the price of the pets, she stepped back, bumping into me.I had to hold her shoulders to steady her. “What’s wrong?”“Why are these pets expensive, Alex? Do they have gold chips inside their body?” she asked, causing me to chuckle.“They’re not expensive, Leigh. These dogs are either designer breed or purebred,” I explained, walking closer to the Labrador retriever puppy. I pet its head while
(Alexander’s POV)Victor and Carlos found me in the hallway, pacing, fidgeting with my hands, and not knowing how to face Carlito when I peeked and saw her parents inside the hospital room with her other siblings. They all rushed to the hospital when Kayla called them, making me wonder what she said because all of them had to go here.“How’s Kayleigh?” asked Victor while placing his hand under the automatic alcohol dispenser.“She’s sleeping now,” I sighed, hoping they would believe in my assurance that she was okay now.“So, is it a boy or a girl?” asked Carlos, but at this point, I was not in the mood for their endless jokes at Leigh. My lips pursed, pressing together, and right now, I am holding my patience at them.“A girl,” answered Kayla, smiling at them, ope
