CHAPTER 37: THE MALDIVES
MIA’S P.O.V
I took a sip of my strawberry daiquiri, admiring the turquoise blue water in front of me. Soaking in the sun I laid on a sunbed with nothing but my white bikini and rainbow sarong. I was done being ‘Goody two shoes’, my abandonment and time in jail, gave me a lot of time to think and go through my life, inspecting each detail of my past and all I realized was that no matter how much of good I have done, I was always let down by life. I no longer believed that ‘if you do good, good will come to you, but that doesn’t mean that I would no longer be a good person, it just means that I would no longer be always so sweet and innocent, letting everyone does something wrong to me, get away with it. If I know that someone is trying to harm me, I would no longer be afraid of it and try to move away from it…I would stand up for myself and I would most definitely fight for myself!!!
On that note just as I am sure that I did not murder Emma, I am also sure that someon

XANDER’S P.O.V (Two weeks later) The past two weeks since we have returned from vacation was nothing less than amazing, I can’t actually say that the spark between us has reignited because it was never dead to being with, it was just buried under all of our problems but when we remembered it and decided to pull it out once again it has shown brighter than ever before, even brighter than the brightest star in the darkest night. And that’s the love that Cara and I shared. “Xander?” I heard Cara calling, disturbing my thoughts but I didn’t mind at all anything was better than her silence. “Yes, love?” I yelled back from study. “What would you like for dinner?” I heard her voice getting louder telling me that she is getting closer. “Anything that you want my love” I answered, the door of the study opened and her head popped in. “No babe, think about it and tell me, I feel of cooking today,” she said. “Come here” I called her and she came, sitting on my lap she pl

XANDER’S P.O.V “Xander, this package just arrived for you” Cara came to me after my Monday morning meeting, holding a box wrapped in brown paper and decorated with a red ribbon forming a bow, in her hands. “That’s interesting. I was not expecting anything” I said, taking the gift from her and inspecting it. On the side, I spotted a little card, Cara and I read it together… ‘Dear ALEXANDER LA’VARDO Welcome back from your vacation. I hope that you had a wonderful and relaxing time with your beloved fiancé. Please accept this gift with open arms as it is a gift from the depths of my heart. I’m sure that this gift will be very useful to you. P.S. for your eyes only Lots of love Yours truly &n

CARA’S P.O.V “Hey babe” I hugged him from the back when I came out of the shower. “Hi, my love,” he said, shutting a book. “What were you reading?” I asked. “Ah, just some boring business book he answered” turning around and holding me close to him. “Why are you so warm? Are you feeling okay?” he asked, his eyebrows creased with concern. “Just a little weak. I’m sure that it’s nothing” I said to him. “Okay, babe…I love you” he said. “I love you too…so…so much,” I said, placing a kiss on his lips. “So where’s the gift?” I asked. “What gift?” he looked at me with a confused expression. “The gift that you received earlier on silly. Don’t tell me that you forgot it at the office” I broke out of his hold and folded my arms across my chest. “No babe…I’m just messing with you” he laughed. “I left it downstairs. Let’s go and open it together” he said, holding my hand, we went down to the first storey. “Chocolates?” I looked surprised. “Oh wow…aren’t these your favori
THE SECOND WIFE OF A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 41: THE TRUTH
XANDER’S P.O.V “Hi, Antonio” I called the detective that I hired before leaving my office and going home to Cara. “Good afternoon Mr. La’Vardo” he greeted. “I received a gift yesterday from someone anonymous. It was some photographs which were taken during an incident that happened two years ago, I need to analyze it for any fingerprints which do not belong to my brother or me,” I ordered him. “Okay, that won’t be a problem Mr.La’Vardo. I’ll get that done for you. As we speak I am running a test to trace the calls from Lily’s phone, however, it would take me a while due to the intricacy of the equipment. I would call you back with the results either later tonight or tomorrow morning,” he finally gave me some good news. “Thank you, Antonio. I will be waiting for your call,” I hung up. …… “Cara?” I called out when I entered the mansion. Spending a day at the office without her really had me missing her. “Cara?” I called out again but still didn’t receive a resp
THE SECOND WIFE OF A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 42: NIGHTMARES COMING TRUE
XANDER’S P.O.V Half a bottle of my whiskey cradled me to sleep as I tilted my head back on the chair that I was sitting on. The fire crackled and the sound of the rain was like a lullaby as I was drawn into the darkness and away from the pain. …… My hand was wrapped tightly around the gun which I held. The man that I shot coughed out blood as he groaned in pain, his hand pressed hard on the hole that my bullet has made on his chest, he fought for his life as he tried not to bleed to death but his bright blue eyes grew duller and duller by the second, eventually closing. He was no longer struggling, he was no longer fighting for his life, he was no longer moving as he looked peacefully asleep...passing on his suffering to me. Suddenly those bright blue eyes opened again, he began to struggle and groan in pain…he tossed and turned fighting to survive once again. I sat next to him, my heart heavy with guilt but I didn’t know what to do or how to help him.
THE SECOND WIFE OF A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 43: FIGHTING TO SURVIVE
CARA’S P.O.V I blinked a few times in the darkness as I regained consciousness. It wasn’t long before my eyes adjusted to the dim light offered by the full moon which I could see from the barred window. ‘Well at least I am still alive I thought to myself gratefully. I tried to move but my hands and feet were tied, I tried to scream but my mouth was gagged. I knew that I had to do something; I can’t just sit here in the darkness and wait for her to come. Who knows what she would do? All I knew is that she is dangerous and unstable; I could see the madness in her eyes, she was devoured by it, therefore she is capable of the unthinkable. Currently, I am a sitting duck; she can come in here at any time and torture me or even worse…take my life. Unless…Unless she is going to use me to lure Xander into her hands! I have to do something and fast! Come on, Cara! Think!!! XANDER’S P.O.V “Okay so detective Antonio, are you still able to track her phone?” I asked, a tea
THE SECOND WIFE OF A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 44: WAKING UP IN PARADISE
CARA’S P.O.V *Beep (pause) *beep (pause)*beep, I heard my lifeline as I was pulled back into consciousness. Blinking my eyes until I could see clearly, I saw Xander, with the biggest and broadest smile on his face, my right hand, held gentle but warmly in between both of his. “Hi,” he muttered the smile still on his face. “Hi,” I muttered back to him and groaned in discomfort due to being in the same position for so long. “You took quite a fall there; I counted my lucky stars that you fell straight into the water and we were there just in time to save you. However, you were hit on the head, so if you feel light-headed or experience a different insight, etc then please let me know” he explained. “Yes, Doc.” I teased him. “Speaking about a Doctor, I should probably call him,” he said, moving out of the seat which he was on, next to my bed. “No! Wait! I’m okay, you can get the doctor just now. Let’s talk…I missed you” I said, stopping him. “I missed you more…I thought tha
THE SECOND WIFE OF A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 45:THE GOLDEN ISLE
(THREE WEEKS LATER) CARA’S P.O.V It felt as if there is a tornado in my tummy as I listened to the silence, suddenly a sweet melody filled my ears and I knew that it was my queue to go. The doors in front of me opened widely, I let out a heavy sigh of nervousness, and then I began to walk through the indoor garden. The pure, innocent, fresh, and soft white roses that decorated the aisles on either side of me, matched the pureness, innocence, and softness of my dress. From white to gold, it hugged onto my body on top, showing off my petite figure as it flowed freely from my hips going down, spreading like the foam from the ocean onto the floor as each dazzling layer danced around me with every step that I took. The music, the dim lights, the lanterns, the roses…all of it made my heart beat a little faster with excitement, happiness, and love. There were a thousand eyes on me, watching my every movement but all my nervousness which I felt not so long ago vanish
