"I should have listened to Aldwin and gone straight to the house.” I blabbered, finally finding my phone from beneath the tangled sheets.

Ray had left me countless missed calls and messages.

“We should get going already, Mr Aldwin will be there soon,” Ray said, pushing the bedroom door ajar.

“What?” I was startled.

“When did he get in??” I mouthed to Lisa, still in shock.

“Let me quickly pick a few things…”

“Everything you might need will be provided. We are running out of time, and yo

    Then the front door opened, and all my worries scattered — temporarily.One of their best moments was when Aldwin came back home from work.“Where are my little men,” he said, using the name he fondly called them – little men. “Dad!” They shrieked loudly, running towards him. He scooped up Zion, tossing him into the air once. When they were younger, he would toss them several times, but they were five years old now. He kissed him on the cheek before setting him down and reaching for Zane. Zane was the shy one; he didn't shriek like Zion did as Aldwin tossed him in the air. Instead, he wrapped his arms around Aldwin's neck and rested his head on his shoulders – content and quiet. Aldwin held him for a moment longer than he had held Zion. They always looked forward to this moment. They would chase each other around, playing and laughing. I watched them and the knot in my chest tightened. Aldwin loved both of his sons. I had never doubted that – not even once. He was present in wa

  • Despised By My Billionaire Husband    CHAPTER 122: They Are Not Identical

    Aldwin kept true to his words – he changed. It had been five years since the birth of Zane and Zion, and the thought of leaving never crossed my mind again. It was different now and I felt at peace. Aldwin made me feel loved. The care and attention I had hungered for from him became present, even though it kept tugging at the back of my mind that if not for the existence of the twins, things would have remained as they were. I pushed aside the loud voice that kept telling me that Aldwin only seemed loving because of the boys and not because of me – that I wasn't enough to make him mine. It was difficult fighting those thoughts and not succumbing to the ideas that built up each time they rang in my head. Zane and Zion gave me a reason, a definition, and that was enough. An obvious dissimilarity could be seen in the twins, but Aldwin was too blinded by his love for them to notice – or maybe he didn't want to talk about it. Not all twins were identical, but Zion and Zane were complete

    Aldwin's face lit up in a bright smile. “I like it,” he said sharply.“Zane and Zion,” Mrs Ellison repeated. “Those are beautiful names, I like it too,” she said, patting my arm.I felt pleased they liked the names. I had thought Aldwin would turn it down, but they accepted the names without a second thought. I had given the Ellisons what they wanted, and now I had to figure out what I wanted for myself. I felt welcomed and accepted for once, ever since I got into this deceitful marriage. I finally got to feel a sense of belonging. It wasn't so difficult to do, but there existed an invisible wall between the haves and the have-nots, and it determined how you were treated, and the amount of relevance that should be accorded to you – the exact way I was pictured when Aldwin announced me as his wife – a wife he unwillingly chose out of a silly bet. My phone beeped: ‘Hey, I said to give you some space with Aldwin and his mom around. Besides, it's late already, I think I should head ho

    “Mom, Mom, can you tone it down? They're asleep. You're going to wake them up,” Aldwin said, and stood to collect the bag she was carrying.Her eyes widened as she placed a hand over her mouth in a hush.She had been waiting for this moment for years – probably longer than I had known Aldwin. The Ellison empire needed an heir, and now she had two of them. Her fears of the family name dying out, of all that wealth and power having nowhere to go, had been solved in one afternoon.She pulled me into a careful hug, mindful of my sore body, and when she pulled back, her eyes were wet.“Thank you,” she said, and the words sounded genuine in a way I hadn't expected.I nodded with a weak smile. This was the same woman who had accused me of going through Aldwin's safe, who had threatened me over the phone, who had looked at me like I was everything people gossiped me to be – a gold digger who had trapped her son into marriage. But right now, she looked like a grandmother who had finally gott

  • Despised By My Billionaire Husband    CHAPTER 119: A Gift For the Ellisons

    I wanted to say something – to thank her for staying by my side through all of it, but the words felt too heavy and got stuck in my throat. The room was fading around me, and I let myself drift because I didn't have the strength to fight it anymore.By evening, I was cleaned up and settled in the VIP room. My mom had stepped out to get some fresh air, and it was Lisa's turn to keep me company. She kept rambling about plans for the babies, and I smiled at her funny comments. I was too tired to laugh properly, Lisa was killing me – until she made a comment that really stirred my emotions.“What do you mean by that?” I asked firmly.There was no hint of a joke in my question, but Lisa didn't catch on immediately.“You seemed to have missed Ralph plenty, and it reflected on the baby,” she giggled.“That's not funny, you should mind what you say.”It was at that moment she understood my reaction.“I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you.” She apologised earnestly. “Your boys are beautiful

    “Mom, this contraction – how much longer?” I asked, writhing in pain.“You're doing great, my love. Hold on a little bit,” my mom said, rubbing my back soothingly, but the pain between my thighs kept heightening. Her consoling wasn't doing much.The nurse checked between my legs and nodded at the doctor, and I knew what that meant even before she said a word. It was time.“You're fully dilated,” the doctor said, pulling on a pair of gloves. “When the next contraction comes, I need you to push.”His words sounded scary, as if I was about to experience pain worse than what I was already feeling. I shook my head in scared anticipation. The pain had been building for hours, crashing over me in waves that left no time to catch my breath before the next one came. My body was trembling from exhaustion, and my throat was raw from screaming. I was so tired I could barely keep my eyes open. Aldwin came to mind in that instant, and I wondered why. He had really wanted to be here but got caugh

    My discomfort affected my sleep, too. My first night in this mansion was much easier falling asleep than tonight, after three years of making it my home. I had nightmares of myself drowning in a well while everyone watched. My mom. Lisa too. Aldwin didn’t even blink. No one gave a fuck or even att

    “Now be obedient and do as I say.” He sat back on the chair. I hesitated, but the words found their way somehow. “Have you ever thought about how I feel? For once?” “How you feel? It doesn't matter. We do it my way. Your feelings don't matter here,” he said with a dark smirk. “Then I'm not up f

    BENNY “Hey, Dad,” Benny said happily, walking over to him. He seemed too calm, unlike how he used to be whenever he saw the daughter he was so proud of. She knew something was up. “You asked to see me,” she added, after kissing him on the cheek. “Yes. How is it going with the Riley case?” he ask
