Michael's pov,

'What is going on in that small head of hers?’. I wondered. Didn't she get the hint that my company and I stand alone and have nothing to do with those people?

What sort of brain does she have?

Well, I didn't expect her to agree to work for me that easily. I understand her fears.

She must think that me and that thing are close brothers, and that me approaching her was simply a scheme to set a trap for her because of her skills.

But that was not my intention at all.

“This is quite interesting. I will be back again. I won't easily give up, because I am up for the challenge”. I muttered with a smirk on the side of my lips.

Everything that I have pursued, I have always succeeded in obtaining them.

So, this problem wasn't a big deal for me. Sooner or later, I will have her working for my company.

With exceptional skills like hers, my Ma-Kings jewelry company was about to enter an era of becoming more than unstoppable.

That stupid thing. Even though he divorced her,

  • Heart of a Betrayed Wife   Chapter 47) Burritos' drama.

    Adira's pov, The aroma of the red chili stew was appetizing, and I could feel it on my tongue already, despite it still cooking on the fire. As I stirred the pot of stew, with my other hand positioned at my waist, I turned to Joseph and saw that he was walking back and forth in the kitchen. I knew what was going on with him. He was hungry, and I had heard his stomach rumbling multiple times. Though after he told me what happened at school earlier today, I knew that he was the one to blame. Not really. That was simply my speculation. According to him, his mother bought burritos for him during their school break period. But he told me that he didn't eat the burritos and gave them to his friend, as he didn't like burritos but tacos. But I knew Joseph too well and could tell when he was telling a lie, because his face always turned red whenever he was telling a lie. And I knew that he had told me a lie in one way or the other. I had seen him eat burritos before when he was younger

  • Heart of a Betrayed Wife   Chapter 46) Dincola.

    Forgetting about Felix's existence for the meantime, I examined the cracks on my cell phone screen.When I bought this cell phone, I did not get to put a screen guard on it. And over time, I had been purposely pushing it off my mind because I was lazy. But look at how things later ended up for me. It obviously didn't end well for me. Either I have to change the cell phone to a new cell phone, or I have to repair the cracked screen of the cell phone. Hmm. I would rather opt for the first option. That is, I ought to buy a new cell phone.Because as the soon to be bride of one of Blenka’s city's most charming and multi billionaire rich CEOs, it was very poor of me to get any of my damaged things fixed. What I deserved were new ones. The door to the bedroom opened, and a smile swept across my face because I knew that the only person who could walk into the room like he or she owned it, despite me being inside the room, would be none other than Nathan himself. “Natty”. I sweetly said

  • Heart of a Betrayed Wife   Chapter 45) Dug his own grave/ Goodbye, idiot.

    Stefan let out a low malicious chuckle, and I gritted my teeth because I had already guessed what he was going to say next. “What are we going to get in return?”. He asked me, even though it was money he clearly wanted. But, I loved that he cared about money and not what I wanted him and Philip to do for me. In order not to let things get out of control in the near future, it was best that I get my own brothers, my family, to do the dirty job for me. I didn't want to trust a stranger or a thug to get the job done for me. If I were to hire a thug, I would need to show them my face, or hire someone to meet them for me.But what if the person I hired used it against me someday? I was not ready to take any chances. If only I was an expert at this, I could easily hire an assassin without them knowing my face or the sound of my voice. “If you and Philip could make it to Blenka city tonight and get the job done for me tomorrow without any mistake, I will give both of you 50 thousand do

  • Heart of a Betrayed Wife   Chapter 44) I need your help.

    Kai's pov,I was on my way to a police station when I received a call from my mom. I put the call on a loudspeaker as I continued to drive and listened to what she was going to say.I didn't want to use my earpods because I was driving. Using earpods while driving was especially dangerous, as it would prevent me from listening and paying total attention to the things happening on the road. “Hello, Mom”. “Kai, where are you now?”. My mother's hurried voice came through. “On my way to the police station. Why do you sound so hurried? Did something happen?”. I asked her, with my eyes never leaving the road as I focused on driving. But due to my mother's hurried voice, I later pulled over and parked my car off the road. “Forget about going to the police station”. She said to me, causing me to furrow my brows because I didn't understand the reason why she wanted me to do that. “But why?”. I asked her because I had my doubts and confusion. “Don't misunderstand me, Kai. I don't want y

  • Heart of a Betrayed Wife   Chapter 43) I believe in you.

    By the time I arrived in the living room, I saw that it was only Joseph who was in the living room. Aunt Becky must have gone upstairs to her bedroom to refresh herself and change clothes. “What do you think you are doing, Joseph?”. I asked him because he was sitting in my spot on the floor and was eating the noodles I hadn't finished. His school bag was sitting beside him on the floor. “I am very hungry, cousin Adira”. He said to me and didn't stop eating. It puzzled me that he was eating like he hadn't eaten food for days. If someone had told me that he had been starving for days, I would have easily believed them without any questions in my mind. I sighed and allowed him to eat the noodles, even though I had not yet eaten to my full. I went ahead to pick up my purse from the floor and gently ruffled Joseph's hair in the process. “Eat slowly. I am not going to take the noodles away from you. Don't end up choking yourself”. I said to him, and for once, he listened to me and sl

  • Heart of a Betrayed Wife   Chapter 42) Adira's brat.

    Adira's pov, I peeked through a very tiny hole in the door, but I couldn't see Michael anymore. He had left, and I was glad and ended up sighing in relief. “Please don't ever return to this place again. What if, because of you, others that I don't want to see, end up knowing exactly where I am? I don't like this”. I said with a frown on my face. I was displeased. But I didn't stay displeased for long as I was hungry and needed to attend to my stomach before anything else. Before I could take a step away from the door, I remembered my car that was parked outside the house's premises. I wanted to leave the car parked out there, but in the end, my intrusive thoughts won over my will. I had to look outside the house one more time through the tiny hole in the door, before I unlocked the door and went out of the house. I hurriedly went to my car and got inside it, before I drove it into Aunt Becky's house premises and parked it there. Afterward, I got out of the car and went ahead t
