All Chapters of The Stranger I Met On The Altar: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Elizabeth’s POVI woke up this morning with a motive - seducing Aaron.So I dressed up in my sexiest nightwear to make it seem as though I had slept that way and woken up that way even though I had slept in a simple T-shirt.I wanted to curl my hair, but it might seem too unbelievable that I woke up with perfect hair.So I packed it in a messy bun, letting down a few ringlets to frame my face.I picked up my red lippie but dropped it and immediately went with the clear gloss. The goal was to make it as natural as possible.I knew what time Aaron usually came down for breakfast so I waited patiently and calculated before I headed out of the room.As I climbed down the stairs and headed towards the dining room, I heard a familiar voice.Vivienne.My jaw dropped. What the hell? Really? After all we shared last night, would he really bring her over to spite me?I would have turned back if not that I was already in their view.Aaron saw me first because Vivienne had her back to me. His ey

AARON’S POVI knew very well what my dad was capable of. And I did not doubt in my mind that he was behind Vivienne’s miscarriage. He didn't tell me about meeting with Vivienne and neither did she, hence why I could not clock this.I wondered why my dad would go to such great lengths to ensure that I married into the Knight family. Did he want their company so badly?I drove Vivienne to the hospital to get a pregnancy test done, and when the results came back negative, I couldn't help but feel relief.She looked sad and disappointed almost as if she badly wanted the baby.“I really hoped… i wished… I wanted this pregnancy,” she said, her voice cloaked with sadness. “I thought this would bring us back on track”I reached for her hand and squeezed it. “We are on track. And nothing has changed between us Vivienne. We are okay”She looked at me with tear-filled eyes. “I can't lose you, Aaron. I will not be able to live”I swallowed. It wasn't the first time she was saying that and it was

Aaron left in annoyance, while Ryan and I kept conversing.He was a breath of fresh air and i couldn't believe just how much we could talk and laugh like I've known him for a while.“So you're spending the night yeah?” I asked him.“Yeah, and i just might be spending a couple of days too. Till the witch in my house leaves. I trust you to be a good host, lil mama?” “Well, I'm not the madam of the house, Vivienne is. But I will make sure you're very comfortable and well taken care of”He let out a snort. “Vivienne madam of the house my foot. You're the one who lives here, the wife. No one is taking your spot”I laughed. “I take it you don't really like her”“Never did. Don't know what my boy Aaron sees in her. But I'm sure with time, he will retrace his steps and observe what's really in front of him” he said.“What's in front of him?”“You of course”I felt heat flaming my cheeks. “Me? Do you.. Do you think he will ever.. You know.. Notice me?”“Lil mama, have you seen YOU? It will ta

I arrived at the restaurant earlier than Taylor and her new man. Being early wasn't really my strong suit but I guess today was an exception.They eventually arrived, hand in hand, with Taylor beaming with smiles.I didn't recognize him because the first time I had seen him, where he and Taylor had actually met, was at the club and it was dimly lit, coupled with the fact that I was tipsy as well.He was eh… kinda a mature man, seems to be in his mid or late thirties, if I were to guess, I'd say late thirties. Hell, he might even be 40.Not bad looking, but not the best looking guy I've seen Taylor with.“Hey Beth,” Taylor said cheerfully.I stood up and kissed both her cheeks. “My love, you look so beautiful,” I said.“Thank you,” she turned to her man. “Sebastian, meet Elizabeth, the bestest friend in the world, and my sister from another mother,” she looked at me endearingly.“Beth, meet Sebastian, the absolute love of my life”He looked at me with a smile as he stretched his hand t

“Oh thank God you’re here Dad,” I said.My mum immediately jumped from her seat at the sound of that, knowing I would spill everything to my dad. Whatever the secret she was hiding was, it was obvious she didn’t want my dad finding out.“Elizabeth,” my dad said pleasantly surprised to see me. “Fancy meeting you here, this is the first time you’re coming here since you got married”“Hi Dad,” I said walking over to him and kissing both his cheeks.“What’s this I hear about scars?” He asked with a frown. “Are you fighting with your mum?” He asked, looking between my mum and me.“Mum…”“Sweetie,” my mum said to my dad cutting me short. She walked to his side and linked her arms with hers. “You must have had a long day. Ignore Elizabeth and her childish tantrums. She was being silly… as usual” She said with a forced chuckle.My dad looked at me. “Elizabeth, you’re a married woman now, you need to stop being rebellious”“What? Rebellious? Me? I didn’t do anything. I only came to ask her who
