**The Marriage Clause**(Chapter Eleven) The private flight back to Los Angeles was a rather bumpy than enjoyable one,all thanks to the stupid weather.Elizabeth yawned with relief as Mark was waiting right on time with the car to take her to wherever she wanted,she wondered how fast he was since he dropped her off at the airport few hours ago but he was Mark;Mark could do anything. ‘To Joan's ma'am??'.He asked and she shook her head vigorously, ordering him to take her to the Goodman Mansion where she would have a great bath and good sleep before preparing for dinner with her new investors,she yawned again and decided to switch on her phone only to find multiple messages all coming from Ella—Oh Ella,the so called best friend who ignored her for weeks is now sending couple of messages. What in the world was going on? she thought as she scrolled through each text that clearly stated that Ella's husband w

**The Marriage Clause**(Chapter Thirteen) Not only did Elizabeth frown deeply as she spotted Marcus from afar,she also wondered who the redhead seated next to him was.Great...just great,she leaves Los Angeles for some peace of mind only to find another woman seated next to her fake husband—Even if the relationship was a complicated one,it still didn't mean he had the right to be with other women? she thought as she hugged Emily who eventually got to her. Cherry's brows also furrowed as her eyes studied Elizabeth from head-to-toe which eventually begat a sudden amount of hatred.From the very expensive birkin bag to the wide-legged pantsuit,it was obvious that Marcus's wife was rich and very stunning too which reduced her chances down to a huge million.Marcus could also feel the tension that was so far away but still massive nonetheless, Elizabeth's arrival something that shouldn't bother him but somehow he did—he felt guil

**The Marriage Clause**(Chapter Fifteen)  The next morning Elizabeth woke up in a pool or her own drool at her apartment on the second floor of Joan's, thankfully there wasn't any bottle of any alcohol of the sort which meant she didn't drink herself to stupor last night.She got up to her feet and stretched her arms as she glanced around,trying to remember the events of yesterday and she did—she remembered vividly how she tried to help a person in need and got humiliated in front of a whole load of people for it. Damn you Elizabeth,she cursed herself as she walked into the kitchen to make herself a cup or steaming hot tea,she always had tea in the morning at the Sheldon ranch, hot steamy and herbal tea that helped a lot in calming her nerves.It was good while it lasted,she thought as she wiped off the snot about to drop from her nose.There was no way she was going back to Marcus..... not now and not in a million years.&nbs

**The Marriage Clause**(Chapter Seventeen)  A minute passed.Two minutes passed.Fifteen minutes passed and there was still absolute silence in the room until Ella despairingly cleared her throat, slowly wishing for the tension to die down so she could have a much better conversation with Marcus,as much as it was disgusting to think she was starting to get sexually aroused just by the glimpse of him. ‘What do you want Sheldon?'.Elizabeth asked with her voice hoarse,her throat was annoyingly dry all of a sudden and she hated the way her legs were wobbly just because she was nervous,and he was to blame for all that.Marcus breathed heavily,trying to gather enough courage for what he was about to do...he didn't have to like her,but he had to do what was right. ‘I uhhh came to apologize for the mishap that happened days ago'.He said. ‘You mean the humiliation you put m

**The Marriage Clause**(Chapter Nineteen) Part Two There was a dead man on the ground, there was the bloated corpse of a man right on the ground. Marcus couldn't find anything to say as he stared right at the horrendous sight, the flies didn't make things feel any better and the putrid smell was way worse than anything he could infer. Elizabeth quickly shut her eyes as her eyes also came in contact with the corpse in front of her, confusion ran through her head as to what was happening and it all made her feel faint in the head.....this was the most horrific dead body she had ever seen, it even took the position of seeing her own father's body in the hospital. ‘Are you Marcus Sheldon? Sheriff Yates of the Gremlin county department here, it's nice to meet you. A very tall man who was probably in his fifties, as related to the silver lining in his very sleek black hair which made him look like a character from &lsquo
