Semua Bab Escaping my heartless billionaire husband : Bab 251 - Bab 260

Note the following chapters related to Zed and Sky's back story will be in the third pov to make the pacing fast. After the flashbacks I will return to the regular first POV. Thanks for reading (⁠✿⁠^⁠‿⁠^⁠) ******** Back at the De Marco estate, Karis was still in a state of shock. She explained her best saying she had no idea about how she got married to Skyler. Luckily, despite Xander's rage, he listened to her. Sky Link headquarters were in France. As Much as Karis wanted to get on the first flight back, she could not when her children's whereabouts were unknown. The best she could do was make several calls trying to understand what was happening. To her dismay, it was real. Xander looked into it, and it turned out that she actually got married to Skyler 3 years ago when they moved to France. It was authentic and registered; she had unknowingly signed a marriage certificate without knowing it. What even made their marriage more legit was the fact that the hous

The air seemed to have gone still. Skyler heard Amelia clearly, and it felt like his heart was stabbed a thousand times over. He wondered if she knew all this while but deliberately ignored his feelings. A smirk graced Xander's lips, " Bold of you to confess in my front that you played my friend all along to get to me, Amelia. What does that make you?" Xander asked, bending over to her ear to whisper. Amelia's grip on her bag tightened. Did she say the wrong thing, but she was honest. "I am someone who genuinely likes you. I fell in love from the first day I saw you drive to the faculty in the car park. I understand you more than you..." Amelia kept on spouting complete nonsense that continued pissing Xander off. He didn't have the time for her rubbish. "If you know me well enough, you should not. I don't do relationships or love. I only fuck for fun, and trust me, even if you were the last girl available, I would never fuck that dried-up pussy off yours. Take your

"Of course, I care about you. Everyone has been worried sick, and worse of all, I can't get a hold of Xander either." Alessia grumbled; both Xander and Skyler were giving her a hard time. "Are you here for Xander or me?" Skyler asked, "for the both of you. You guys have to stop this lifestyle of illegal racing. It's dangerous." Amelia argued, making Skyler laugh. The racing was the least danger around Xander. Did she have any idea one of Xander's friends was a fucking Mafia heir? "Unfortunately, I am not in the mood for a lecture, Alessia. If you want to talk to your brother, find him. I respect you as a sister, Alessia, know your boundaries." Skyler coldly said, walking past Alessia to his car. "You should stop doing this, your mum is worried." Alessia tried to reason out, but her words fell on deaf ears. Skyler had already driven out. This didn't reduce her determination. Alessia knew she had to help him. The reason Xander had been on the edge lately was because of

(Karis's pov) The room seemed to have had a sombre atmosphere; for the first time, I saw a side of Xander I could never have imagined. "I never wanted things to turn out like that, but I was an obnoxious jerk, and I still think I am." His voice felt drained and he seemed completely powerless. This was the truth I always wanted to know but it put me in a state where I didn't even know how to react. "Don't blame yourself, Xander, it was an accident." That was all I could say hoping it could lessen the burden. From the way Xander spoke about it there was lingering regret he felt. Xander probably blamed himself for everything, but there was no way he could have accepted the girl, and that single rejection caused him a lot. "It's my fault; Skyler was right that night; I should have been nicer to Amelia even though I hated her for the way she treated Sky. I should have tried to reach out, but I didn't, and it cost me my sister. My actions killed Alessia, and it still ha

(Karis's pov) A single bodyguard followed me and was seated in front of the car. What was I doing? I wondered. My mind kept on telling me it was a bad idea but yet I felt I had to do this regardless. My phone notification beep drew my attention; it was Bertha. I had told her about the mysterious text, and of course, she was against the idea. In the end, we agreed to go together. "Good morning, Betty." I simply said. "Morning Karis, are you on your way?" She asked sounding a bit exhausted. "Yes, I left the estate a few minutes ago." The line went static for a while before I heard her "Karis," she called out with a soft voice before continuing. " You know it is not too late, you can turn back. I honestly think you should trust Xander. We have no idea who it is that sent you that message and this might just be a means to lure you out." I knew everything she said was true. I had also considered the possibility but I had also made up my mind. "I know, but if we a
