The Devil’s Convenient Wife Chapter 120
ZARA’S POVI watched Victor’s live TV appearance on my iPad and I barely blinked at the words he said. It was definitely part of his political campaign because there was no way he could have disarmed three men and rescued the whole plane. He should have stuck to something more realistic for his campaign though. Intelligent people would be able to tell it was a planned work.I put down my iPad and my mind wandered to earlier when I overheard Cael’s phone call. I had heard him receive the report about what happened on the plane and that would only be possible if he had been keeping an eye on Victor. I felt like something was going on but perhaps, I might be just overreacting. The door opened suddenly and a nurse stepped inside.“It is time for your mental evaluation, madam. I will escort you there,” she said calmly.I heaved a sigh. Maybe the mental evaluation would be a good way to clear my head.**“I’m pretty sure you have prepared for this meeting,” the psychiatrist said carefully.

CAEL’S POVCode Red. That was only used for the most unexpected situations. I tried my best not to react so Zara wouldn’t find out. I smiled at her while she chuckled. I had to reach out to Charles as soon as possible.“I should go,” I muttered. “I have to get back to work.”“Seriously?” she asked, sounding very disappointed. “Can’t you stay here with me? I would hate to be all alone here.”I held her hand in a bid to reassure her, “I will be back very soon. In the meantime, your discharge procedure will be handled. I will have them send over a nurse if you need company.”She shrugged, “I don’t want a stranger. I want you.”“I will be back,” I finalized, giving her a kiss on the forehead. As she blushed, I walked outside. The moment I closed the door after myself, I dialed Charles’s phone. He picked up on the first ring.“Boss, there is…” He was saying.“Can I not have a single day of peace?” I retorted. “Tell me, why do we have a code red?”“It was a mistake,” he muttered.I stopped

CAEL’S POVI had gotten a text message from Charles that morning and that was why I stepped outside. I went to the garage and entered the car where Charles had parked.“I suppose you have an update for me,” I had barely said when Charles brought out some pictures. I looked over them; pictures of Victor and Gerald Holt with Ada not far behind. I was going to ask for an explanation but Charles was faster.“Zach took those pictures this morning. This was Victor on his way to the airport. Zach followed him there and confirmed that Victor is currently on a plane to Paris,” he informed me.“Did you double check?” I asked.“It was hard to get my hands on the passenger list but yes, I got it and confirmed that Victor really was on that plane,” he replied.“He is with Gerald and Ada?” I questioned.“No, only Gerald,” Charles replied. “Ada escorted him down to the airport and she left once the plane was in the air. Zach has gotten a flight ticket for the next flight to Paris. He will track them

ZARA’S POVI thought I had a headache the moment I woke up but the moment my eyes opened, the headache vanished. I figured it was an illusion. I took a look around me and Cael wasn’t there. The memories of the previous night came rushing into my head and I had these goosebumps immediately.I stood from my bed and right then, the door opened. Cael stepped in and without flinching, he said ‘hi’. I cleared my throat and sat on the edge of the bed. Cael poured some water into a cup and gave it to me.“You should always drink water early in the morning,” he said simply. I collected the cup from him and drank. While I drank, I wondered if he wasn’t going to bring up what happened last night. I choked on some of the water and Cael ran over, hitting my back as if that would help. I coughed continuously and my eyes reddened.“I will get the doctor,” Cael tried to run off. I held him back, let out three coughs and that was it.“I’m fine now,” I said.“Just like that?” He asked. “I will bring a

CAEL’S POV“Not tonight,” I told her. “Goodnight.”I cut the call almost immediately and placed my head on the steering wheel. I was right outside the hospital but my conscience pricked me so much that I couldn’t bear to see Zara. How could I look her in the eye confidently when all day, I had been planning the downfall of her stepfather? Sure, I had my reasons but that was no excuse at the end of the day.A few minutes later, I raised my head and intended to drive off when I saw Zara in her hospital gown staring at me from afar. I got out of the car at once and rushed to her.“You shouldn’t be out here, there might still be reporters around,” I told her firmly.“Then you should come in,” she grabbed my hand and dragged me inside with her. I surrendered quickly and led the way. I opened the door to her so she could enter but she made me enter first.I couldn’t help but scoff, “Did you think I would make you enter and then run off?”“Who knows?” she shrugged. “Come here.”She led me to
The Devil’s Convenient Wife Chapter 115
ZARA’S POVI couldn’t stop thinking about what Lena had said no matter how hard I tried. The possibility of Cael being in love with me excited and frightened me at the same time. My mind seemed as if it was divided into factions and what faction to side with, I didn’t know.I heard a knock on the door, the fourteenth today. I’ve been counting. Don’t blame me, blame boredom.As the door opened, I watched Mackenzie’s head take a peek inside. Her eyes met mine and finally, she entered properly, her head low. I shifted uncomfortably, realizing that I was about to have a very intense conversation with her. She stood in front of me and when she revealed her hands which were hidden in her back, she had flowers in them.“I wish you a fast recovery,” Mackenzie told me, smiling.I took the flowers and looked into her eyes, “Don’t you hate me? I’m pretty sure you do.”She scoffed, “Why would I hate you? You didn’t do anything wrong.”“I suspected you,” I replied calmly. “I cast you out without l

ZARA’S POVCael Ashford stood there in the doorway like he owned the place.Which, apparently, part of me now did too. He was dressed in a fresh black shirt and trousers, looking far too composed for a man who had just walked into a woman’s apartment uninvited.In his right hand, he held my missing

ZARA’S POVThe elevator doors had barely closed behind us before Cael had me pressed against the cold metal wall. His lips crashed down on mine with a hunger that stole what little breath I had left in my lungs.This kiss was nothing like the polite one at the chapel. This one was hungry, demanding
The Devil’s Convenient Wife Chapter 1
ZARA’S POVI pushed open the apartment door, my overnight bag was still hanging from my shoulder. The place was quiet. A little too quiet if I might. Marcus was supposed to be at work, but his car was parked downstairs. I smiled a little. Maybe he came home early to surprise me.“Marcus?” I called,
