Margaret’s POV

After setting down my luggage stuff in Cielin’s one room condo that could barely fit her let alone the both of us,I promptly went into the shower and let the hot water pound against my skin like it could wash away the shame and pain that had followed me back to Lintertown.What was supposed to be just three days of being invisible had turned into a series of yet another family drama between Laura and I.

Finally stepping out of the shower after what seemed like ages, the mirror was

  • Billionaire Scandal: My Stepsister's Husband Wants Me    Laura Always Has A Move Up Her Sleeve.

    Sam’s POV“Sir. Are you alright? Do you need anything?” The voice of the waitress who was tending the bar brought my attention back to reality. I looked at my watch and it had been over fifteen minutes since Laura left. It was then that I realized that I had been staring into nothingness for a while, stuck in the plain and reveling over what Laura said.“I'm good. Thanks” I hurriedly said and paid off the tab bill Laura accumulated before dramatically leaving before letting myself out of this cafe before I looked more crazy than I already did.I got into my car and just sat there for a long moment, staring at the steering wheel as people on the street outside moved on like nothing had happened. They walked past, talking, laughing and living normal lives. Meanwhile, I was drowning in a mess I had created for myself years ago.I was beyond mad, at Laura,myself and the entire situation at large. I had let a single night of poor judgment turn into a leash around my neck. And the worst p

  • Billionaire Scandal: My Stepsister's Husband Wants Me    The Hurting Wife

    Laura’s POVI continued staring at the hospital discharge papers that were still in my bag, refusing to bring it out in disbelief that Alexander actually didn't bother to come pick my up.Not even a single message asking if I was okay or explaining why he disappeared from the hospital without a trace.My fingers tightened around my phone until my knuckles turned white as I fought the urge to call him but I eventually became overpowered by my need for certainty. I dialed his number, already feeling the rejection that might come with his tone but still holding on to the possibility that things may be different now and that he probably had an explanation for not coming.After numerous attempts,he answered with a flat and distracted voice,“What is it, Laura?”I immediately let the tears come even though I know it made me look desperate because for Alexander,I was willing to do anything to get him back.“Alexander,you didn’t come to pick me up. I just lost our child and you left me alone at

  • Billionaire Scandal: My Stepsister's Husband Wants Me    Hate

    Margaret’s POVI let myself relax in Alexander’s arms as it closed around me and in a matter of seconds,my emotions were uncontrollably all over the place in ways I knew I’d probably regret later.My knees had already given out and a broken sob tore from my throat as the full weight of all the chaos crashed down on me at once although only a few significantly kept playing in my head,The Chief Justice’s hot breath against my ear or the fact that his hands actually touched my body. And then Laura’s baby who was gone,not having the opportunity to experience life just because I couldn't keep together these same emotions of mine. I clung to Alexander’s shirt like a drowning woman, crying so hard my entire body shook. I hated myself for seeking comfort from him, but in that second I had nothing left. No strength or pride. Just pure, raw collapse by a woman who has not even a single shoulder to cry on.For a brief, foolish moment, I felt his hand rest against the back of my head. I though

  • Billionaire Scandal: My Stepsister's Husband Wants Me    A Possible Reunion

    Margaret’s POVThe high court complex loomed in front of me like a giant beast as I walked closer to the large terrazzo staircase that led into that building. My hands became extremely clammy standing at the entrance.I was scared, terrified actually but I kept repeating the same words in my head like a mantra: You can get through this, Margaret. You built this career with your own hands, don't let them take it from you.I took a deep breath, adjusted the strap of my bag, stepped inside and headed straight for Chief Justice Bartholomew’s office. He had called me the night I received the letter from the court warden, sounding worried for me over the phone: “Make sure you come to my office unfailingly tomorrow, that's if you still want to practice law in this state.” The words had kept me up all night.This morning, I had woken up in the small, scrubby apartment Cielin and I had managed to move into that same day, my body still sore from the emotional and physical exhaustion of the past

  • Billionaire Scandal: My Stepsister's Husband Wants Me    The Possible End

    Margaret’s POV My sight became blurry bit by bit due to the uncontrollable tears that left my eyes as I shoved one last shirt into the suitcase, my wrists shaking so badly that I could barely zip it closed. How could I have been so stupid as to let myself believe that happiness was possible when everything I touched turned to poison? Cielin sat on the edge of the bed, her hand gently rubbing my back as sobs wracked my body. “Margaret, breathe. Please. You’re going to make yourself sick.” “I’m just so stupid,” I choked out between sobs, wiping my face with a rough piece of clothing “Why did I let myself fall for such a scam? I should have known this was too good to be true.Because of my own carelessness,Laura has lost her baby because of me and my career is probably over after that stupid picture Laura obviously took of us at the restaurant. I don’t even know how to go about any of it. I’m just tired, Cielin. I just want to end all of this pain.” Cielin pulled me into a tight hu

  • Billionaire Scandal: My Stepsister's Husband Wants Me    Alexander Has Feelings For Another

    Alexander’s POVThere have only been a few times where I was this angry. I didn't even know I cared a lot for the baby until this happened. I just felt lost, lonely and extremely enraged. To cap it all,the culprit happened to be Margaret of all people. Why wasn't it one stupid random dude looking to score some point or even Sam,so I could deal with him mercilessly without emotions.The hospital was now beginning to suffocate me which led me to start making my way out of the building,but as soon as I was outside,I spotted her immediately, standing near the entrance,by a palm tree like a lost puppy. She was pacing up and down, looking detached and worried but I couldn't care less.My legs carried me toward her before I could even think, my fists clenched at my sides.“Hey you,” I snarled, jamming my finger toward her chest as I closed the distance, standing so close I could see the fear flicker in her eyes. “You’ve succeeded in killing my baby, right? The only other thing that mattered t
