Chapter 22He is an arrogant brat who is taking a toll on me; he is trying to break me and make me hollow like he is. But not anymore. I composed myself to meet his eyes for the first time after I gained the title of 'His Wife' and aimed as many daggers. I hoped he would tatter and break, but instead, he just walked off the altar to accompany his friend to the reception party, leaving me standing there alone but not for too long. A girl with blond hair came to help me off the altar with a cute smile. "Oh, sweet Jesus, you are prettier than Xavier mentioned. You are beautiful." I was shocked that Xavier talked about me, but who is this girl. She was so beautiful that she could easily make any guy fall to his knee. Clutching my hand in hers, she led me outside, where everybody was enjoying my marriage. Xavier came and stood before us, his hands folded on his chest, and he was staring at the girl next to me, to which she blushed."Aisling, I told you to

Chapter 24'Anyways, why are you still here?" he asked. I gave him a confused look, and he shared that back…….Then when the realization hit me, "OHHHHH you mean 'why' I'm still here?" I repeated. Trying to be oblivious to the answer but failed. I sigh"You want to know why I am not on the Honeymoon with the husband of mine?" I asked.Xavier nodded like a kid, and I felt my stomach roll.Darn, you Alex now, how am I supposed to answer that? So I turned the subject?With a confused look, I asked him, "Xavier did you bring me in last night?" And I got my answer when his face became hard, and his stare became a glare."The question should not be that Cara mia the question should be, 'what were you doing out in the cold at three in the morning?' I was there to get you up because I sometimes live here. when I m around and I want to chill out I go to the pool. But fi ding you there at a time like that ....... it's not good you

Chapter 26"It's me, Cara Mia, no need to go all ninja right now, but seriously what are you doing here? And at this time? "I release a long breath when Xavier comes in full view."Xavier the hell?? You like to scare me or something," I yelled, to which he laughed. "No, Cara Mia it never came across me that my voice can scare someone to shit like that." He stepped out of the dark and darned his looks were like a Greek god under the moonlight, but they were Nothing compared to Alex. Darn, I mentally groaned at that. My brain sedulously needs a check-up."You never answered my question, sister-in-law.? Ahh, sh*t, I zoned out again."Ahhh what question was it again?. I'm sorry I was kinda distracted." I said, covering my face with my hair.Xavier gave me a flat look, but I could see him trying to hold his laugh at my not-so-cooperative brain even in low light. he cleared his throat. "It's one past midnight what are you doing here?"

Chapter 28I change out of the clothes or whatever is left of them. Alex has already discarded my shirt for his little show. And comb my hair. I need to do Something about his touch, my body reacts severely to it, and I wouldn't say I like it.Oh, come on! Who am I kidding? I like it very much. But I wish it was real love, not a fake show, for his friends.Now hold on!! What did I say? Oh, hell lord, I told the "L" word. I pulled out a bottle of Listerine and cleaned my mouth in the hope to rinse my thought. My stomach roared in hunger again, and even if I didn't want to go down, I had to. So after collecting every single ounce of energy I had, I forced my legs to go downstairs. The hall room and kitchen were a huge mess, alcohol lined up everywhere, cheers of Alex's friends could be heard from poolside. At this time, it did not look like that Alex was a CEO. It was like he was some reckless eighteen-year-old teenage boy, but who am I kidding? He is Voldemort in

Chapter 30Regan pov: -I don't know where I am, but this place is beautiful. Is this the place all people go when they die.?It was a beautiful park; everything was white. Leaves on tree branches. Many butterflies flew past me, and one of them used me for her bypass resting station, taking her seat on my shoulder."Hi, little fellow. Do you know where I am? I mindlessly asked that butterfly. My dress is also white making me feel so light.I saw swings at the end of the path I was standing on, and someone was sitting on them too. She looked so similar to someone I know. I looked closer and gasped. How could it be!!"Mom, ???"
