Lydia’s pov

I knew who was in the fucking picture and my heart slowly started to break.

Dennis.

My Dennis.

Out on the street, arms wrapped around another man. Holding him tight, smiling like… like he belonged.

I blinked hard multiple times as I stared at the headline.

“Alex spotted with new husband—public embrace confirms rumors.”

“God no,” I gasped as I leaned against the wall and read it while he scoffed.

“I guess he got tired of waiting for you… and moved on with someone who actually wanted him.”

“No… he wouldn’t.”

“I had no idea he liked dicks. Might have given him mine.”

Dennis. Was married.

To a man.

The room spun.

I tried to steady myself but it was not happening.

I was falling apart.

I swallowed hard, but it felt like glass. My vision blurred. My lover was still standing there smirking, satisfied that he’d destroyed me, but I didn’t even see him anymore.

All I saw was Dennis, smiling into someone else’s arms.

And I can’t lie, it destroyed me.

I turned and left the house as hi

  • The CEO'S Contract Husband   Chapter 78

    Dennis’s povBy the time I walked out into the hall, he was waiting outside by the car. Tapping his foot like I had taken some ridiculous amount of time instead of ten minutes. He was wearing dark jeans and a white button up with rolled up sleeves because, of course he did. He looked like he belonged in a magazine.“Finally,” he said, smirking.I gave him a side eye glare. “Personally, I would have liked to just stay in. I don’t know why I’m doing this.”He smiled. “I’m lucky for a lot of reasons.”And damn him, my heart did that stupid flutter again.He opened the door as we both got into the back and sat down as the driver took us to the place we should go to.I looked out of the window watching city lights fly by, trying not to think hard.“Pizza then what?” He finally spoke up.I shrugged. “I don’t know. Back home I guess. Hope you’re not thinking of doing anything else.”He smiled. “I’m thinking of doing a lot. But I don’t know. It doesn’t help when you’re all locked up inside.”

  • The CEO'S Contract Husband   Chapter 77

    Alex’s povThe whole drive back home, her words were stuck in my head. They dug at me like a thorn I couldn’t take out. Sophia… Always that smug little smile like she knew me better than I did myself. The way she said it… like my whole life with Dennis was some phase. Some delusion.“I refuse to believe you are gay,” she had laughed it off, like it was some joke I told myself.The thing was, I didn’t give a crap if she believed me or not. It was that look she gave me. Like what Dennis and I had wasn’t real. How dare she? She has no idea who we were and what we did.I could feel my insides burning with anger. Right now I needed Dennis and I needed his hold and kiss.The moment we got home, I jumped out of the car before the driver could turn off the car and I rushed into the house.All I wanted to do was see him.“Dennis!”I barked out for him as soon as I entered, the sound harsher than I’d intended. The butler appeared from God knows where, giving his customary half bow before sayin

  • The CEO'S Contract Husband   Chapter 76

    Alex’s povI arrived at the restaurant and got out of the car, my driver scurrying to open the door for me. The man bowed, as he always did, as if he wasn’t just a driver but some kind of footman to a king. The guards at the entrance bowed when they caught sight of me too, bodies stiff, heads dipping forward. It’s like this wherever I show up these days… people gawking at me as if I’m something not quite human.Money has a way of making people do that. Making them stupid with reverence.I walked straight through without blinking at them. Inside, waiters stiffened the second I stepped in. They whispered to each other behind their hands. A couple at the corner stopped eating and just stared. You’d think I invented electricity or something.I was twenty something with billions in my account, sure. A billionaire at my age.But to me? It didn’t feel like enough. Nothing ever did.Then I saw her.Sophia.She was seated close to the window in a relaxed way. She had a grin that made me narrow

  • The CEO'S Contract Husband   Chapter 75

    Dennis’s povI entered the hotel that Lydia had sent me to visit her with the money as I grimaced at the smell from the hall. I remembered the call I had made with her after leaving the pasta restaurant. I wanted to meet her and she had sent me the address.I didn’t know why I had agreed to come meet her. No… scratch that. I knew exactly why. To end this madness. That’s why.My feet paused before the door she told me to go through, 406. I sighed and knocked on the door as I waited before hearing something break in the background, someone cuss and then a fumble in another part of the room I couldn’t see.And then the door opened and there she was. Lydia.She had on a black silk dress that has her cleavages out and barely reached her knees. Infact, if she bent down, her panties would be out.She posed in the doorframe, letting me soak her up.“Well, well,” she purred, voice low, almost mocking. “You actually came.”I didn’t say anything to her as I brushed past her and entered the roo

  • The CEO'S Contract Husband   Chapter 74

    Alex’s povI sat there tapping on the menu, but I had no intention of ordering anything. I was thinking about Dennis. About how his face went when he got that call.One second he was right before me, laughing and looking over at me. Eyes crinkled up from laughter. Then the next second… nothing. His face like somebody died or something. I hated that.I hated the secrets.I thought we had gotten to a point where we could tell each other anything. Why did it feel this way?He soon returned and sat down opposite me with a smile like nothing happened. But I could tell that his smile was fake.“You okay?” I said, leaning in.“Yeah,” he said too fast. “Fine.”“Fine?” I scoffed. “That’s what we are calling what you just did?”“Alex. I’m fine. Just let it go.”“Bullshit.” I blurted which shocked him. “I’ve known you too long, Dennis. Something’s fucked up right now. Who was that?”“No one. You seriously don’t have to make a big deal about this.”“Don’t you dare gaslight me man. We have someth

  • The CEO'S Contract Husband   Chapter 73

    Dennis’s povI smirked, poking at the bread basket. “Something about Monroe being an idiot, probably.”“Close enough,” he muttered, but he was smiling.The food came, pasta for me, steak for him and we ate in that silent ease that had settled around us. Not awkward. Not strained. Just… there.Halfway through, he reached over with his fork and stole a bite off my plate. I swiped at his hand but he just smiled back at me like a toddler caught stealing cookies. “Yours tastes better,” he shrugged.“You have a whole steak sitting there,” I shot back, rolling my eyes.“Still. Yours is better.”We were enjoying ourselves and I told myself that nothing could steal the joy of this moment as my phone buzzed.I didn’t think much of it. Just reached into my pocket, thumb brushing the screen like usual. But when I saw the name, my heart dropped.Lydia.Everything inside me turned cold. My breath got shallow, my fork clattered against my plate. I couldn’t breathe for a second. Couldn’t think. Jus
