Semua Bab Eleven Months As My CEO's Wife: Bab 21 - Bab 30

Grace's POVI found myself wiping my tears with the back of my palm and trailing after Victor back into the house, like a girl that had been enchanted by love.His expression seemed genuine, and I considered giving him another chance, hoping it would bring out the best in both of us.Victor took it upon himself to carry my boxes, even though his bodyguards offered to help, which he refused. To my surprise, he was heading toward his room with them."My room is...""Shh." He interrupted me, stepping closer and wrapping his arm around my small waist."When the maids resume, they'll pack the rest of your things and bring them to my room." He said, giving me a soft kiss on the lips before letting me go and carrying the boxes into his room.I stood frozen in place. It all felt so sudden. Was he doing this because of the babies, or had he finally fallen in love with me?I slowly walked after him into the room to find him putting my things into his wardrobe. I watched in amazement, but I was

Grace's POVFor the first time in over five months of being married to Victor, I finally slept soundly. Sleeping in his arms made me feel like a newlywed bride. He had stopped me from stepping out unless it was with him. So when he told me we would be going out together, I was so happy. I didn't know where, but I felt it would be something fun. I wore a beautiful black gown that hugged tightly around my body. I applied a little makeup and, glancing at myself in the mirror, I needed no one to tell me that I looked like a beautiful billionaire's wife, even though I had started to notice pregnancy changes on my face. But still, I looked stunning.Victor got ready a bit earlier than I did, so I hurried to get dressed to avoid holding him up. I placed my head on his chest, enjoying the moment as the car sped off.The car pulled up to a large mansion. It might not have been as big as Victor's, but it was clear that a wealthy man owned it as well.Victor and I stepped out, his hand holding

Grace's POVThe next morning, I began looking into the Midwest to escape to and how I could find a place to stay there. I found a lot of housing agencies online and got their contacts, but when they told me the apartment prices, it was way out of my budget. I couldn't spend all the money I saved from Victor on rent. I needed some to start up a business to support myself and the two little ones growing inside me. I finally found a house with a payment I could afford in the Midwest after hours of searching. I paid for it with a hopeful heart, praying I wouldn't be scammed. After that, I booked a taxi that would drive me there and began planning how to execute my plans regarding the securities.I ordered some pricey alcoholic drinks and told the securities it was my birthday and I just wanted to celebrate with them. They believed me and happily accepted the drinks. I kept an eye on them as they drank, making sure to keep all the maids occupied as well. When I noticed that the securitie

Grace's POVI woke up to the sound of a beeping machine with its cuff wrapped around my arm. A drip was also passed into my veins. “What is happening?” I muttered as I glanced around the room. Seeing two people in the room with me, both receiving drips, made me realize I was in the hospital. I managed to sit up but my head hurts so bad so I lay back on the bed.“How did I get here?” I asked myself but I couldn't remember anything. I closed my eyes deeply, hoping to remember what brought me to the hospital but my mind was blank. Just then, a petite nurse entered the room with a man beside him and walked towards my bed, smiling.“Thank God you are finally awake.” The man said, while I just stared at him, trying to see if I knew him. The nurse moved to the beeping machine, checked the readings and wrote them down in the folder she was holding.“How are you doing ma’am.” She asked me with a smile.“My head hurts. What am I doing in a hospital.” I asked. She reassured me to calm down a

Victor’s POV“Woman, don’t be foolish,” I said, approaching her with a fire of anger burning within me.“I don’t know where you got the idea about my mother, but you can't trick me.” My rage was boiling; if she weren’t an elder, I would have grabbed her by the throat and knocked her teeth out.“Next time you come here and say something like that, you’ll end up in jail,” I warned, signaling my bodyguard to throw her out as I walked out of the living room.I could hear her voice echoing as she was taken away, and I could also hear my bodyguard hitting her to silence her, but she kept shouting, “I’m sorry I left you,” until her voice faded into silence.She only fueled my anger and frustration. If she knew how furious I became at the mention of my mother’s name, she wouldn’t have dared to come and tell such a lie.“Your father never tells you she died; what if she’s the one?” Anthony said on the phone after I explained what had happened.“Anthony, I don't think any woman in her right min
