All Chapters of A Debt of Vows : Chapter 21 - Chapter 27

Mabel's POV I closed my eyes and opened them again, I didn't see anyone! I wrapped my arms over my shoulders as I felt a cold shiver run through my spine.As creepy as it seemed, I was glad it was just my mind playing tricks on me. How much fear did I have for Landon to start hallucinating?I shook my head vigorously, brushing the thought off. The plates were still on the bed so I moved them and placed them on the stool.Realizing that I was still in my towel, I hurriedly replaced it with the gown I had worn before.Just then, I felt an intense stomach ache and a sudden urge to use the toilet. Without hesitation, I dashed to the toilet, heaving a deep sigh of relief.“Phew! That was close.”After I finished with my business, I cleaned myself up and went back to my room.I lay on my bed, thinking of what to do with my life now that I was back at the Villa. I had spent years building my career only for one cold-blooded being to crash it in the twinkle of an eye.Should I use my savi

Landon's POV I stood by the floor-to-ceiling window inside my office with my hands sealed away in my pockets not staring at anything in particular, just waiting patiently for AJ to get the information I wanted. Mabel crossed the line this time. Our marriage may not be intimate but she had no right to sleep around. She had no right to spend the night outside her matrimonial home! This was a disrespect to my pride. If anyone heard about this, my reputation would be made a joke. My jaw hardened at the thought of Mabel being with another man. My wife! The amount of disrespect! Just wait a little longer until I get all the information I need.She still had the guts to call and request for her phone, not even the tiniest feeling of remorse. What a shameless woman!I rounded to my desk and picked up her phone, thinking of what to do with it. I thought about flinging it outside the window but later decided against it. That would be too easy. I might need it later, you never know.Dropping

Landon's POV I let out an exhausted sigh, wondering who let her in. Resuming my steps, I walked toward her, my expression returning serious.Her eyes glistened in delight as she saw me. “Landon!” She exclaimed excitedly, scurrying to my side, clinging onto my arm like a toddler.“What are you doing here, Lisa?” My voice came out a little icy despite my effort to mask my displeasure.“Why didn't you tell me you were returning to the US? I read it on a blog, why did you do that to me?” She asked, blinking her long artificial eyelashes as she stared up at me.Looking down at her, I saw every reason why I shouldn't tell her about my moves. She's too clingy. I hate clingy women.“You didn't answer my question.” I reminded her, my patience running thin.Her eyes roamed my face trying to study my mood, sensing that I wasn't joking around, she responded slowly,“I heard you're recruiting employees for your new company and I thought it was the perfect place to start my career.”“You're a lit

Mabel's POV I don't want to believe that he's been stalking me, but how do you explain meeting someone twice on the same day? And it's not even evening yet.Ethan let out a soft chuckle that I would've found cute only if I had any interest in him. “I'm not stalking you, I happen to want a new phone myself. There's something called coincidence, you know?” My eyes squinted at him in scrutiny but my mouth withheld its words, rather, I turned to the store attendant who had brought more models.Picking up the one that caught my attention, I inquired, “How much is this?”“Just a moment,” He took it from me, scanning it just to be sure.“Two hundred and forty dollars.Not bad at all. This would do!“Are you sure you want that? You might want to get something more… capable.” Ethan spoke once again without invitation. I sulked in my breath, a failed attempt to keep my anger in check. Again.“Why don't you just get what you want and stop trying to interfere with what I want?” I snapped, refus
