An Unexpected Call

ALEXA“You will not believe that I have received well over three calls since the last one, Noelle,” I told Noelle.Shirley was already setting up the racks and shelves in my dad’s former study.It hurt me a little to have to move some things aside and most of them to the attic, but I had to. There was no other space I could have used and also, what was the point in leaving things the way they were when the company was gone?Everything in the study revolved around the company which was no more anyway.“And they are all as a result of you being married to Mark?” Noelle asked with deep curiosity.“Yes,” I responded.It still seemed unreal to me.Because of Donald Shell, everyone had withdrawn their contract with me and I stopped having customers, which led me to shut down the business, but just in the space of one week of being married to Mark, things were looking better again.Every single call I had gotten in the last couple of days were all from prominent people in the city. People wh

Thoughtful, Romantic, And Intentional

MARK“Reyna, thank you for today,” I said to my personal assistant before leaving my company.“I was only doing my job, sir,” Reyna responded with nobility.“It was more than your job,” I told her and I meant it.Again, I hadn’t had anyone I could confide in since I became CEO. Even my dad’s personal assistant wasn’t like this with him.Reyna was not just efficient, but she was also trustworthy.Within a minute of talking to her, she had come up with a brilliant idea. Some hours ago, after Mona had left, leaving me in a state of anger, Reyna had come in.“Is anything the matter, Mr. Mark?” Reyna had asked me.Originally, I would have waved it off, deciding to handle things myself like I always did, or even if I couldn’t, Vector would be the one I would speak to and not Reyna, but in that moment, I just hadn’t minded.Also, Reyna had become too deeply involved to keep her out. She might not act like it, but she knew everything that was going on between Alexa and me. She was just too pr

The Dress

ALEXAShirley and Noelle stood in front of me and stared at me with awe in their eyes after putting on the dress Eva had sent about forty minutes ago.She had wanted to deliver it herself, but knowing the kind of woman she was, I knew without a doubt that she was merely looking for a gossip, and so I had told her to send it through a courier instead.The dress fit exceptionally well.“What do you think?” I asked Noelle and Shirley, tired of waiting to get a response from them even though my mirror already gave me the answer I needed.Shirley ought to have closed for the day and left, but as soon as she knew that I was getting dressed for a dinner date, she insisted on waiting behind, and I let her.It felt really good having both Noelle and Shirley here with me.“Mr. Mark has an eye for good things!” Shirley gushed.“Technically, it is Eva who decided on the design and made the dress. Mark only requested for her services,” I corrected Shirley, nearly rolling my eyeballs.“She wouldn’t

Fighting His Charm

ALEXA“I don’t think you should be worrying about anything, Alexa. She didn’t call to cancel, just postpone by one day. As a matter of fact, I think you are overthinking everything,” Noelle told me five minutes after the call.“She just seemed too professional to be postponing our meeting,” I responded.“You said it yourself that she had an emergency. She is human, Alexa, and she has other engagements in life,” Noelle insisted.I tried to shake it off, just so that I could stop worrying about everything like Noelle had so put it, but I just couldn’t, and that was when it dawned on me.“What is it?” Noelle asked me when she saw my reaction.“Claudia didn’t sound as though she was cancelling with all of us in her class, Noelle. She sounded as though it just had to be with Mark and me,” I told her.The conversation with Claudia was replaying in my head and I still couldn’t find the place where she added the other parents.Noelle’s sighed in exasperation.“How could she have included the

Mission Half-Accomplished

MARKAlexa accepted the flowers, but I could tell that she didn’t want to act as though she liked them. My only encouragement was the blush I saw on her cheeks.That was enough for me...for now.Hopefully, by the time we were done with dinner, she would be totally swept off her feet, and she wouldn’t turn down my offer.So help me God...“Shall we?” I requested.“Yeah,” Alexa responded.I reached out to hold her other hand, but she tried to get away from me. Nevertheless, I didn’t want that to happen, so I systematically snaked my hand around her waist.Alexa didn’t protest or try to get away from me.Damn, she was so hot and sexy in this dress and I felt like kissing her instantly, but I had a feeling that this was the wrong time to make such moves.When Reyna told me that she had contacted the best female fashion designer in the city, I hadn’t thought that it had been extreme.And I loved it.Alexa and I got to my car where Cannon Dexter was waiting to drive us. She also allowed me

Children Dream

ALEXANo matter what was going on between Mark and me, I just couldn’t get over this priceless moment, especially as he had had to pay the restaurant to open this space just for something like this.I hadn’t lied when I said that I once wished I could be here when it was recently opened, but this was nothing compared to what I had wished for.This was magical.“I have never seen Paris like this before,” I said when I noticed Mark’s presence close me. “Have you?” I asked him.My voice was low, but I didn’t have to worry about it because the wind carried the words, as well as our fragrances. It was just not something I could fully explain.“Once,” Mark responded.“Was it on a date like this?” I asked.The moment I did, I felt a pang of jealousy because I could already imagine that it was when him and Ivy had been on a date. Mark had been with other women before Ivy, but somehow, in my head, they didn’t exist.Only Ivy did and the pain it brought to my chest was raw and deep.“No, it was

The Perfect Moment

MARKAlexa and I ate for some minutes in silence. With the way she moaned at each bite, I knew that she felt the deliciousness of the food.The conversation before we sat down to eat was so easy and light, and I had no idea that bringing up what I wanted to talk about would land on a fertile soil.Alexa looked happy and that made me genuinely happy.“This is delicious,” Alexa eventually said when she was almost done emptying her plate.The moaning sound and now speaking huskily really turned me on, but this was neither the place, nor the time.“It is,” I responded.“Can I get another plate?” Alexa asked.“Of course, Alexa. We have a whole platter on our table and it belongs to us. If you still want something more, all you have to do is ask and I will send for it,” I told Alexa.“I thought this was everything they had on their menu,” Alexa said, recounting what she had said earlier.“Yes, but it is not everything they have in the restaurant, and I can make them go over and beyond to ge

The One Who Lost

MARKWith how everything had been going, my first thought was that Alexa would go with the suggestion smoothly. I hadn’t imagined that she would react like that.The fire that erupted in her eyes told me that it didn’t sit well with her even before she opened her mouth to speak.“What did you just say?” Alexa asked me.I swallowed hard, preparing myself for the most difficult conversation I would ever have with Alexa.Again, I had thought that this dinner would soften everything and make things easier for me, but right now, I realized how wrong I was. There was no way Alexa would agree to it. Even if I did everything right in the world, she would never bend.I should have known.“We are moving to Versailles for a few months,” I managed to repeat.“Are you joking?” Alexa asked.I could tell that she was really expecting me to say that I was, but I wish that I could say that I was joking. I wasn’t.“No, I am not,” I said.“I knew this wasn’t for free!” Alexa blew hot, her voice breaking

Ambushed

ALEXAI couldn’t believe that Mark would even suggest something like that to me! What kind of man was he?Fine, I had always known that he was selfish and only cared about himself. What he wanted was for everyone to do his bidding and for everything to go his way, but a tiny part of me had hoped that he had truly changed.How silly of me!For five years, I was married to Mark Ronaldo. I nursed him back to health and took proper care of him even though he neglected me completely and chose Ivy over me for the second time. I gave up working in my dad’s company and even doing something for myself to be a devoted wife to Mark.For five years, I was nothing but his wife, nurse, caregiver, and whatever he needed me to be while he worked as the CEO in his father’s company and expanded his own business.Now that something good was coming my way again, he wanted me to go with him to Versailles. While he would be there working and chasing a very huge contract, I would be doing nothing with my li

Playing Gentleman

ALEXAI was certain that the bloggers and paparazzi were eager to hear Mark’s answer just the way I was. Maybe it was a good thing he was the one answering even though I was the sole reason we weren’t living together.“My wife and I are working out something which we don’t want to reveal to the public right away. When that happens, I am sure you will all be aware of it,” Mark answered calmly and expertly.If I wasn’t so upset with Mark, I might have fallen for him all over again.The truth was that Mark had done nothing but handled the entire situation perfectly. Usually, I would have been proud of him, considering how nervous I had been initially, but then again, if he hadn’t brought us here just to suggest something ridiculous to me, we wouldn’t have been ambushed like this.Nevertheless, I couldn’t deny that Mark saying “my wife” made my heart jingle in a way that I didn’t like. I would really love to be immune to Mark and all that concerned him completely.“Mr. Mark Ronaldo, you b
