All Chapters of His Contracted Bedspacer (The Heir 1): Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

"What might be critical?" Rafaella questioned hastily. She was eyeing Alexus. "Rafa, let's do it for the good of everyone. If somebody tries to break in, we have people around to deal with them." "Are you saying there's a risk to us?" "No, although it's best to use caution," said Alexus. Rafaella was ready to speak when Mrs. Wood returned, giving Alexus a bottle of water and a pill. "Rafa, do you need anything?" "No, I'm okay. I appreciate you asking." She responded, grinning at the senior lady. Her worries eventually vanished when she realized they were all referring to her by her given name, which was shortened for them. Most of all, she sensed Alexus's gratitude for her health. Timothy continued, "Same with us," before facing Alexus. Just tell me when you're prepared." "Yes, bring them to my study. I'll be right back with you." He turned to face her after rising. "You can rest in our room after I bring you there. You appear exhausted." He smiled and extended his h

"The old man's name is Mateo Lombardi, an old Italian man, a friend of my wife's father. Rafa's father owed that older man a lot of money, and he wanted Rafa as the payment. The Jones family lived across from our residence. Our fathers were friends. When my father was murdered, I became closer to their family, and Rafa's father was like a father figure to me at the age of 14. So when I learned about his dilemma, I offered to marry his daughter Rafa at that time, barely 18. And after that, her father committed suicide." Gwen gasped,” Sorry for the interruption,” she said while her two companions were quietly seated and eagerly listening. "The woman in that picture was my girlfriend then, who knew nothing at first that I married Rafa. Eventually, when she found out, she accepted it since my motive was to save her." "So, how did you live together as a couple?" Gwen asked impatiently. "We didn't live as a couple. She continued living her life with her family and continued her schooling

"Yes, your mom is right. You two can sleep here, but your mommy needs to heal first. That means, while she can't walk yet because of her leg, you two are off limits to sleep here for now." "Alright, Daddy. But soon, we go swimming..." Lucy answered. "Later, you can go to the swimming pool with Uncle Tim and Libby." The kids jumped in unison. "We must leave Mommy here so she can rest, and I have something to settle. Let's ask Libby to prepare something for you." The twins nodded in unison. They were holding each hand of their father after planting a kiss on their mother's cheek. "Bye, Mommy." Rafaella was by herself. Even though she could not recall the two kids, she was ecstatic to see them and spend time with them. Seeing the sadness in their eyes when leaving her a while ago broke her heart. She had planned to do that once she would be well enough to walk alone. She took a deep breath and stared at her casted knee. She must wait a little longer to remove the cast surround

“Fine. I had great moments with my old buddy Lambert. Thanks for taking care of the company while I was away.” "I guess, part of my job," he chuckled. "It's great to run this for a while, although it's not a cup of my tea barking at their shortcomings. To update you, Marla filed for divorce." Alexus was speechless for a moment at the unexpected update. "Why?" He asked as he managed to speak. "She wanted me to back her up by returning to work here. She said she doesn't need the big lump sum of cash you gave her for running the business while you were recuperating." "She can use it to fund her own business. She's good..." "Then why didn't you retain her?" "It's her ways of thinking I didn't like, conniving with Sandy and turning my secretary and admin to spy on me. So, I decided to clean up the termites here before I could continue running the business. How's Martin?" "He's working fine. I like working with him." "Yep. I'm glad that one was not corrupted by working with David.

Agents were skilled at producing props to mask the nature of their activity, the covert operation. She greatly respected their commitment to their effort to safeguard their subject and was in awe of their fearlessness.She continued to think about the agent woman. She hoped to resume the conversation she had begun earlier regarding the subject with Gwen. During their discussion, she deduced that the agent woman knew her and the twins just before her accident. She was intrigued by several things that bothered her, mainly how she and her spouse interacted.Her eyes drifted over the beautiful view of the sunset. There were no clouds in the sky and a lovely breeze across the land. The stars tonight bring back memories of the clear sky.She wished to be in the ocean but realized what her mind was doing was wrong. She must constantly exercise caution.She sighed and turned, allowing the pillows to puff up around her as she fell onto the hotel's king-sized bed. Her arms lay above her head. A
