Elena’s POV

The car ride was short, thankfully. But not the good kind of thankful, more like the awkward silence kind. Neither of us spoke. Not a word. Not even a fake cough to fill the space.

It was even quieter than the ride to the restaurant earlier… and that was already graveyard-level silence.

"And this is my stop," I finally said, my voice sounding louder than expected in the stillness of the car.

Noah’s sleek black car rolled to a stop in front of Layla’s massive building. He looked up at the tall house like he was analyzing its architecture before turning his gaze back to me with a small nod.

"At least your place is reasonable," he said.

I wasn’t sure if that was a compliment or a lowkey insult, so I just smiled.

It wasn’t my place anyway, so…

I stepped out, stretching just a bit too dramatically and scrunching my face like I had cramps. “Fucking fuck,” I groaned, then turned back to face him, placing a smile on my lips again.

He had already gotten out of the car. Gentleman m

  • Mr. Reynolds, your wife is an imposter    Chapter 49 The Reynolds Way

    Elena's POV My feet paused and I stared. Noah stood by the counter, back turned to me, shirt sleeves rolled up, hair tousled like he’d been running a hand through it. His fingers were wrapped around a glass of water, but he wasn’t drinking it. He was just... staring at it.God, he looked tired.What was he doing back at this time? He normally didn't come back this early. He looked as if he was deep in thought. This past few days the drug had started working. He forgot little things, and now it was graduating to bigger ones. It was making him go crazy. I hated seeing him like that... It hurt me, too 'It would all be over soon.' I consoled myself.Once he had finished his dosage, everything would be fine. He would stop forgetting things. Only his memories for the last few months would be gone. I...would be gone. I sighed, about to turn away when Noah's gaze caught mine. “Layla,” he said softly as if he hadn’t been sure I was still here. “You okay?”I should be the one asking t

  • Mr. Reynolds, your wife is an imposter    Chapter 48 Last sob day

    Elena's POV "Aish!" I groaned after Layla ended the call. That bitch was just... "Argh!" I was just on my own, crying my eyeballs out for the last time; today was Thursday, and the medicine I had been feeding Noah for the past four days was starting to take effect. I just wanted to give myself one more chance. To cry one more time for my sins, to regret my actions one last time. After today... I was going full on the plan. No matter whatever feeling I had started growing for Noah... I was going to forget it and solely focus on the mission. At least that was my plan. And it was going to be great; I was almost done with my sobs when Layla's call came through. Sincerely I was shocked. 'Why would she call me?' I had wandered, staring at the vibrating phone skeptically. But I eventually gave in and answered at the second ring only for her to give me news about Jack. "Why on earth was he looking for me?" I groaned sitting up on the bed. How could he be so engrossed in a stranger?

  • Mr. Reynolds, your wife is an imposter    Chapter 47 Pay back

    Layla's POV As soon as I said those words silence followed. Then Elena's broken voice came through again. "W... What?" Who did she think she was playing? With those sobby tones of hers? The Elena I knew rarely cried. "Oh don't give me that bullshit." I groaned in annoyance, returning downstairs. "He looked like he had been very much acquainted with you, so don't you dare tell me that you don't know what I'm talking about." "I'm not saying that." She sniffled. "It's just... What does he want?" "He wanted to return your dress. The dress you wore on Saturday, you left it at his place." I mocked, pouring the milk into the bowl of cereal. I grabbed a spoon and stirred the contents, using my other hand to hold up my phone. "Should I tell you the funniest part? Huh? He called you by your real name! Your name. Elena! He said that." "Layla it's a long story." Elena groaned. Long story? Oh please, she was definitely hiding something, I could feel it. "Did he say anything else?" "You

  • Mr. Reynolds, your wife is an imposter    Chapter 46 Elena's dress

    Layla's POV It's been four days... Five days if I was to count Sunday. The week was running out. It was just a matter of time before I got back what belonged to me. It annoyed me to know that Elena was with my man, making him feel things that he wasn't supposed to feel, not from her. I wasn't a fool... Noah didn't propose to me; he purposed to be Elena. Elena had once told me Noah's preposition to her when they met. Three dates. They were to go on three dates and after that, he was going to judge whether he wanted her in his life or not. Even as much as it was arranged, there was no guarantee Noah would have picked me up if I had left immediately. So, a part of it hurts finding out that your best friend is more you than yourself. But it was going to be over soon. Elena was going to be gone. Yeah, Noah was going to forget her face, forget her- My name, forget the experience too... But one thing I knew for sure was that he was never going to forget the feeling. The way Elen

  • Mr. Reynolds, your wife is an imposter    Chapter 45 Pre-wedding jitters

    Noah's POV Every day throughout this week, my desk had been filled with paperwork, paperwork which needed quick attention. I had been to the office yesterday and the day before...but today's work looked even more stressful, and it was. Halfway through the pile, I was already exhausted. What was worse was I couldn't even remember what most of the rest were for. "Boss..." Joshua called knocking on the door. I made a lazy look at the door, sweeping my eyes off it before saying coldly but firmly. "Come in." He pushed the door open and made his way into my office. Standing opposite me, he bowed. "Most of the plans for the rival company and the new product are completed." He began. "What remains are the plans for the new line we recently acquired... "Joshua rattled on, I wasn't really concentrated. He just came back this morning from a business trip he went on for a few days- a trip I apparently sent him for. "Boss..." "Boss..." I snapped my head up, fulling coming out of my thou

  • Mr. Reynolds, your wife is an imposter    Change 44 Who's Jack?

    Elena's POV If a person was annoyed with you, or if the person heard your soliloquy which you made staring at them, tears dripping and all, especially if that soliloquy was an apology for everything you have done and would still do... The said person wouldn't still kiss you... Right? I blinked as soon as realization dawned on me, pushing Noah away from my lips. "Hey..." I groaned getting up from the bed. Sincerely, that was actually when I noticed that we weren't in my room. "What? Can't I kiss my lovely fiance good morning?" Noah answered with a smirk, his eyes glistening with joy. I didn't have to time fully take in the room's beauty because all I could think about was how long Noah had been awake. "Oh... So you've been awake all this time." I said, feigning an annoyed expression. Noah chuckled, lifting the duvet from the bed. "No. I woke up when I felt something wet on my cheeks." He got up now, still fully naked, by the way. I refused to let my eyes wander, keeping my gaze
