《Abandoned at the Altar, Chosen by the Billionaire 》全部章節：第 11 章 - 第 20 章

CHAPTER 12YANAKennedy and I haven't talked since I eloped, and I've been itching to talk to her. She's my closest cousin, but because she stays in Australia, we don't get to catch up every time.My eyes bulge out as I read the message again to be sure I didn't misread, but it's still the same. My cousin is my husband's ex?Wow. How..."Yana," Luis's voice comes from behind me, and I almost drop my phone. He gives me a suspicious look before talking."Are we not going shopping anymore?""Oh," I nod. "I'll just go change."I hurry to my room, not sure of how to face Luis or Kennedy. How come Kennedy never told me about him? She never fails to tell me about her relationships, just like she had warned me against the elopement or even Spencer in general. Could there be a reason she hid this?I've never been one to follow popular figures, so I knew nothing about Luis's relationships. I guess he never had any scandal or sort since it seemed like he preferred his privacy. I'm itching so ha

CHAPTER 14YANAA subtle knock comes from my door, but I ignore it, thinking it's in my dream. But then it comes again, and I struggle to get out of bed. It's still so early in the morning, and I've only recently started to sleep well."Good morning," Luis voice comes from the hallway, and I immediately straighten up, running my palm through my face. "Good morning.""I'm sorry for waking you up this early."I shake my head. "It's fine. Is something wrong?""I have an urgent meeting to attend this morning," he explains, and my brows raise. He's fully dressed up, looking good as always in his black tuxedo. Luis never fails to pull anything off."Oh." I look at him. "Will you be back early, or will I be meeting them alone?"He shakes his head. "I'll be back before they arrive. Can't let you do it alone."I flash him a small smile. "I'll be expecting you then." He nods. "I made breakfast."My stomach tingles. "Thank you."He takes a step away, almost like he's hesitating to leave. "The

CHAPTER 16LUIS "Where are we?" Yana asks in a gentle and soothing cadence, lacing her voice. She always speaks so softly that I've found myself always wanting to listen to hear her talk. It just melts my heart every single time.I glance at her, my eyes meeting her big, round eyes. The first time our eyes met, I'd been so struck by her beauty, and even after seeing each other every single day in the past few days, I still get stunned by her beauty."Luis, where is this?" She repeats. I tear my gaze from her and turn back to the old building.My childhood home. It's my first time coming here in years. I've been avoiding visiting all this time because of the memories. But I have to face them now, if not, I'll keep being trapped by it.I step out of the car, and Yana jumps out before I can even open her door."Who are we meeting?" She flashes me a small smile. "Do I need to be scared?" I've never seen her scared of anyone. Nervous, maybe, but scared? Everyone is always scared to meet

CHAPTER 18YANAI don't know the extent until I wake up in the morning to meet myself wrapped around Luis. Our faces are so close that I'll only need a single push for our mouths to touch. Just then, something flashed before me.A memory that almost made me let out a scream. It feels so real. Like it actually happened. Like, I was really that close to Luis, and we almost kissed. I can't even be sure that we didn't kiss. And from what I remember, I was the one pushing for it. Oh my goodness! My hand goes to the back of my head as a banging headache hits me. I have to close my eyes for a moment, but then distorted memories and faces start taking over, almost like I'm remembering something that happened, but they're all something that can never happen, right?There's no way Luis and I were that close. There's no way we were so intimate. I can only accept the fact that we drank together. He had found me at my house while I was burning things, and I'd ended up opening my heart to him. I c

CHAPTER 20 YANA "Are you okay?" Luis asks for the umpteenth time that morning. Since yesterday, he has never left my side, he keeps worrying and asking about my health and if I have more allergies or any other thing that can raise concerns.I appreciate how concerned he is, but I don't like him blaming himself for what happened yesterday. Of course, it's not his fault. He was only trying to be a nice person by making breakfast. We don't know much about each other yet. It was bound to happen. It's my mistake for not informing him about my allergy. Actually, I'd totally forgotten about it since the last time I had such a scare was when I was eight. Ever since then, I've paid more attention to my meals. "I'm fine. Let's go," I reply with an assuring smile while buckling my seat belt.Luis turns to me. "You know we can go back home, right?"I shake my head. "I don't want you shifting the meeting because of me again. Your schedule is already affected because of me."He didn't go to wor
