Elena POV

As we walked through every section of the mall, it was clear who the star of the day was.

Catherine Stones -The fairy Princess of Las Vegas. Always perfect. Always radiant and flawless. The center of all attention.

Nobody paid yield to me, a nobody. They only attended to her and left me like I didn't exist at all.

Not like I'd care.

I wonder how she still has the energy to still carry on shopping like she was made for it cause I was already tired.

My legs ached from all the go here and there. Although she tagged me along I knew I didn't belong in this world. It wasn't my speciality.

Just as finally thought this misery was about to end as we were about to exit the jewellery store, a voice stopped us.

" Excuse me, miss," the store attendant dressed in a crisp white shirt and black short skirt approached me.

I frowned, " yes?"

The woman crossed her arms, her gaze sharp. " We need to check your bag, miss"

My brow furrowed. " Why?"

  • The Billionaire's Accidental Bride    Chapter 125 – The Wedding I Never Had

    Elena POVThe morning sunlight streamed gently through the curtains, casting golden rays across the room. I stirred awake to the warmth of Alex’s arms still wrapped protectively around me. His steady heartbeat echoed against my ear, a rhythm that calmed me more than anything else ever could. For a moment, I simply lay there, smiling, unwilling to move.The memories of last night flooding my head. The way he held me, the way his lips claimed mine when he took me. Everything yesterday night was so….A knock sounded at the door.Before I could even answer, Nana’s unmistakable voice carried through. “Rise and shine, lovebirds. We have work to do!”Argh, how does this woman still have enough energy this early in the morning after yesterday!I frowned, exchanging a sleepy glance with Alex. “Work?” I asked.The door swung open before I got a reply, and Nana waltzed in, her face beaming with so much joy that I knew something was up. “I hope you two had your fun, because now it’s time for the

  • The Billionaire's Accidental Bride    Chapter 124 - Surprising proposal

    Elena POV When I stepped onto the terrace, my breath caught. Fairy lights, candles, a table set with sunflowers. The reflection of the setting sun made everything so majestic and dreamy. “Oh my gosh…” I whispered. “This is beautiful.” “Thought you’d like it,” a familiar voice came from behind me. I turned and then froze. Alex was down on one knee. A ring in a box stretched out toward me.My hands flew to my mouth in awe. “Elena,” he began, his voice trembling with raw honesty. “I know I haven’t been the perfect man, or husband, or even the father you deserved. But with you I feel complete, I feel whole. Yes I’ve made mistakes that scarred us both and broke us apart. But I swear to you, from this moment forward, I will spend the rest of my life learning and trying to become the man worthy of your love.” “I will make sure to be your strength when you’re weak, your joy when you’re weary, and your anchor when the storms of life try to tear us apart. I know it will not be easy, and I

  • The Billionaire's Accidental Bride    Chapter 123 – welcome home

    Elena POVI had just finished putting the twins to sleep. Both of them looked like tiny angels in their little beds, letting out soft breaths and their little fists curled. My chest melted just staring at them.Suddenly, Alex wrapped his hands around me from behind, laying soft kisses on my shoulder.“ They're beautiful aren't they?” I asked.He only let out a soft hum as his lips brushed my nape making me shiver.“ They look just like you,” he said.I chuckled, “ how do you know that, they're just a month old”“ Because I can see the future”I rolled my eyes, tiredly chuckling.The window cracked open, the night breeze slipping in, making the curtains sway gently. The faint light of the moon spread across the room, soft and peaceful.“Elena,” Alex suddenly called softly.I turned to face him, his eyes already fixed on me. He looked tired, still pale from everything he’d been through, but his gaze was steady.“I’m sorry,” he whispered.My throat tightened. “For what?”“For earlier,” h

  • The Billionaire's Accidental Bride    Chapter 122 – You Idiots

    Elena povI didn’t even wait for the doctor to finish talking. My legs moved before my brain could catch up, dragging me inside Alex’s room like the world was ending.“Alex!” I shouted, rushing to his bed, his still body almost swallowing me whole. “You can’t die, do you hear me? My kids won't grow up without a father, okay? I won’t forgive you, never! Not for this!”My voice broke into pieces but I didn’t stop. I gripped his shirt, shaking him weakly. “Stand up, Alex. Wake up. You don’t get to leave me with guilt and regrets, you don’t get to abandon me like everyone else. If you die—” my breath hitched, tears streaming like waterfalls, “—if you die I’ll never forgive you or myself. So please… please open your eyes.”My knees hit the floor as I buried my face into the blanket, my chest heaving painfully. I felt like I was going to rip apart just watching him lay there lifeless.“Alex…” I whispered brokenly, my hand clutching his. “I love you, okay? There, I said it. I love you, Alex

  • The Billionaire's Accidental Bride    Chapter 121 – Please, Don’t Leave Me

    Elena povIt had been a whole week since the warehouse incident. Seven days of cold hospital walls, constant beeping monitors, and restless nights. Seven days of staring at the incubator where my babies slept, too small, too fragile, yet breathing and alive. Nick had been with me every single day, helping me feed them, change them, teaching me little things I didn’t even know about babies.But Alex… Alex hadn’t opened his eyes once.Not even for me.I tried to avoid going near his room. Part of me was scared, scared of what I’d see, scared of facing the truth, scared of the guilt that never let me sleep. It was easier to busy myself with the twins, to pretend that maybe, just maybe, he would wake up on his own.But yet no sign of him waking up.I was sitting on the bed, carefully holding one of the babies in my arms, rocking gently while trying to get her to drink from the tiny bottle the nurse had prepared. The room was quiet, the soft sound of sucking the only noise until a sudde

  • The Billionaire's Accidental Bride    Chapter 120- A mother

    Elena POV The hospital light shot into my eyes like a sharp needle piercing my skin as I was being dragged into the hospital on a stretcher.Everything was moving so fast. Nurses were shouting, doors banging open. But all I could really feel was pain. My guts twisted like something was pulling at it.I couldn’t even scream anymore, I didn't have the strength to. My throat was already sore, only broken sobs came out of me. My body curled itself in half, begging for relief.“Stay with us, ma’am. Stay awake, don’t close your eyes yet,” someone was saying, but their voice sounded far away, muffled like they were speaking under water.“Alex” I said but it only came out as a whisper.… Where was Alex? Was he okay? I tried to move my head to see him but another wave of pain crashed into me and I lost focus.Hours passed or maybe minutes, I couldn’t tell. All I knew was I laid on the bed, my leg spread open and the doctors urged me to push. I was screaming, clenching the sheets, sweat sticki
