Mag-log in“All you have to do, Nortia, is birth me an heir within two years and get 20 millions dollars whenever you decide to leave, isn't that juicy enough? You can't get that elsewhere, so it's best you take it while I'm still offering” ************* After walking into her boyfriend cheating on her with her cousin, Nortia vowed never to love again, but then Alexis's tempting proposal to bear him an heir and get 20 millions upon departure changed everything. Despite initial reservations not to fall in love, they both find themselves entangled in a web of emotions. As adversaries, secrets and past love affairs resurface threatening to tear them apart, they try to do everything to keep the flames in their relationship burning, but would they be able to?
view moreNortia's POV “ It's just a simple family picnic” I reminded Alexis who must have forgotten that, because what exactly was he carrying these things for? I knew I was close to terms, six months had gone by in a whim which I couldn't have expected would turn out so well, but it had. Alexis had been on his best behavior and I couldn't have wanted anything else aside from that, while my godmother doted on me. His father wasn't left out as he had worked on the nursery with Alexis making sure it was perfect. I had opted for a gender reveal but had decided against it at the last moment. I wanted to get the surprise when they were out, and even when I had gone against it a thousand times, I was barely able to keep the temptation away, I had fought it off for what was the right amount of months. “ One can never be extra careful, wifey. You know that, don't you?” “ It's basically just a few hours drive and we will be back” I reminded him. My hand rested on my waist while I chewed on my
Nortia's POV Was I always going to get whatever it was that I wanted from Alexis? Yes. I knew Chad was the last name he would want to hear and for someone who happened to be as stubborn as he was, it seemed only convenient that I used the only name that I could think about. “ Well,” my godmother said when the car came to a halt in front of the correctional center. “ I guess we have to wait and hope for nothing to happen.” She explained to Alexis who happened to be brooding. He had been told that there was no way he was allowed to come in with me and that seemed to have soured his mood. “ I will be waiting,” he uttered before turning to the side, not giving me a glance while I walked away. A sulking baby, that was what he was. “ The guards assured me that you are going to be protected at all times, and all you have to do if anything happens is tap on the button just by your side igniting a buzz and they will all race in.”“ Okay,” I had that stamped at the back of my head becaus
Alexis's POV I was spellbound because I had thought she would never bring that up, why was it that she had thought about that so suddenly when I thought there was no way she would never bring it up considering how she had just left without taking a dime? “ You want the money?” I asked again, wanting to be sure. It was contradicting what she had said initially where she had shoved it up at my face letting me know she wasn't taking a dime. Now, I was left wondering what was going to be the reaction from my father and Gerald who had taken her side, talking about how she was different. She was, I knew about that, but it was just shocking to me. “Yes, I do. When should I be getting it?” “ Why the sudden change of mind? You said you didn't initially,”“ Now, I want it. Don't tell me you thought I had let you off the hook so easily, there are thousands of things I could use that money for.”“ You own a company,” I reminded her. “ That's the reason why I would need it even more, I am su
Nortia's POV I woke up with the best view before me. Alexis had his hand above his head, his eyes shut while his brows furrowed which had me thinking what exactly he was dreaming about. He wasn't supposed to look this distressed while sleeping, my fingers inched to run across his face, whisper words into his ear, letting him know how much I had missed him but I kept it to myself, not saying a word. Propping myself on my arm, I watched him, my eyes shifting between my tummy and his face while I tried to come up with something else to do aside from looking at him but my mind was blank. I exhaled deeply, before raising my finger as I ran them across his brows. “ Wakey, wakey,” his face sprung into a smile before his lashes fluttered open, as he turned to me. His face melted into a puddle of smiles before he kissed me on the lips. “ Good morning,” he mouthed out at me. Propping himself as well to take a good look at me. “ You look dashing,” he said to me while I tried not to blush,
