The knock on the tinted glasses sent a shock into my body.
“Get down from the car Arabella”, I heard my father call out to me in a whisper.
“Your husband sent his driver to come pick you up, and if he sees you in here with your ex, he might divorce you, what are you even doing in there?” my father added, this time his voice sounded so angry.
“Help me” I said to Jake as I tried buckling my shoes that were removed in the hot moment we had been having a few minutes ago.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to put you into trouble, I missed you so much, and I just couldn’t control myself when I saw you,” Jake said, lowering his head in shame.
“Hey, hey, it’s okay, besides I needed this also. I’ve been going through a lot”. I tried to make Jake feel okay while I suppressed what I was going through.
“He’s waiting in the lounge, don’t keep him waiting” I heard my father say as I hurried and stepped out of the car.
My eyes met the eyes of my husband’s driver immediately, and I saw a displeasing look on his face.
I thought to myself “He doesn’t even know who owns this car, so I’m safe”.
As I walked towards him, I still felt some tingling in between my legs from the hot kisses I just had with Jake.
“Mrs Alexander , your husband sent me to pick you up. He doesn’t want you to drive home alone without any security” the driver said to me respectfully.
“I’m not a kid, I’ve been moving around all my life without security," I snapped at the driver.
“That was before you were a billionaire’s wife. Can I please take you home, it’s about to rain” he said to me calmly and I felt remorse for him.
It wasn’t his fault anyway, so I didn’t have to snap at him.
“Let’s go” I said as I turned my back and headed for the car.
My father stared at me as I walked away without uttering a word to me and I reciprocated the energy towards him.
The journey to the billionaire’s mansion was a quiet one until the sound of lightning struck my ears and I clenched my fist in fear.
“Are you okay?” the driver said, pressing the brakes of the car to check up on me.
“I always get scared whenever it’s raining, but I’ll be fine, let’s continue with the journey” I calmly told him while shivering in the backseat.
I didn’t even know when I felt tears dropping from my eyes, as I remembered when my mom always told me stories when it’s raining to help me sleep, “I wish she was here”, I thought inwardly.
“Are you crying?” the driver asked from the front seat.
“I’m fine, it’s the weather”. I forced a smile on my face, but deep down, I was so scared, and it occurred to me, he saw me earlier coming out of Jake’s car.
“Do you know whose car you saw me coming out of earlier?” I asked with hopes that he wouldn’t know.
“No, I don’t, ma” I immediately let out a breath of relief because I was scared he was going to tell on me. I don’t know if my husband is an unforgiving monster who would hunt Jake down.
“Is there any problem, ma?” he questioned, cutting into my thoughts.
“No, there isn’t”, I assured him and nudged him to continue driving.
The journey became quiet again. As we approached my husband’s mansion, I felt my heart racing. Will I really be able to kill this man or would he kill me first?
I saw hefty security guards mounted all over the mansion.
“Killing my husband is never going to work” I thought inwardly.
“Ma’am we are here.” I was so lost in my thoughts I didn’t realize the driver had been informing me of our arrival.
I stepped out of the car, maybe I was expecting my husband to welcome me, but I was greeted by two maids and one security guard.
“Welcome ma, dinner is ready, we’ve been waiting for you all day” one of the maids informed me.
I sighed heavily, I wasn’t hungry, all I needed was to fall on my bed and cry myself to sleep.
I walked into the huge entrance of my husband’s mansion. The first time I entered the house was on our wedding night, but I’m still amazed how one house can be so magnificent.
As I walked through the halls heading to my room, I saw my husband in his study. The door was slightly open, so I took a sneak peek.
He was wearing gray sweatpants, a white singlet that tightly fit his body, his muscles were defined, and his stare looked so stern.
“He’s the most handsome I’ve seen, and I wish I had him, if only our fate wasn’t so twisted”.
As I tried to continue my journey to my room, I mistakenly hit the study door and my husband was quickly alerted.
“Who’s there?” He questioned.
I quickly ran to my room. I was not going to let him see me in such a state. If I’m going to succeed in killing him, he can never see me looking vulnerable.
I turned on the hot shower and felt the water run down my body. I felt so much better.
The sound of the water covered my ears and I didn’t hear my husband walk into the room.
“He looked so handsome, but the only man I’ve ever known is Jake. I don’t think I want to know someone else”, I spoke to myself loudly in the bathroom as I wrapped a towel over my body.
“Who’s Jake”? His voice stopped my legs in the air as I gasped and held my towel firmly.
I saw a smirk on his face as he stared at me up and down, looking so impressed by what he was seeing.
“How did you get in here?” I swallowed hard, panting and trying to close the bathroom door.
“Calm down, I’m not here to hurt you. I heard someone walking down the hall when I was studying. I wanted to make sure it was you” he said, with a smirk still plastered on his face.
He must love the reaction he got from me.
“Okay, now you know it is me, can you leave? I'm not properly dressed”, I said calmly while holding my towel firmly.
“ Why are you sending me away? I have the right to be in this room, I’m your husband”, he reminded me.
“You look beautiful, and you don’t have to feel nervous around me, get dressed. I’m taking you somewhere”. I didn’t know how to react to what he just said.
I just stood there like a dummy “Don’t keep me waiting, wife”, he added as he walked out of the room.
Honestly, I didn’t know what to do or what to wear. I had no idea where we were going, so I hurriedly scanned my box of clothes and found a black body-con gown.
The gown was so tight on my body, and it revealed my flat stomach, big ass, my tiny waist and my boobs were so pointed in the gown, I could seduce myself.
I put on an orange heel and applied some hair serum on my healthy curly hair.
“Are you ready?” He walked into the room and I couldn’t stop staring at the man standing in front of me.
He wore a black suit that complimented his body, he had the most beautiful yet masculine face I’ve ever seen, “Am I falling for this man?” I questioned myself inwardly.
I was so engrossed by his looks, and I didn’t notice him staring at me, I watched his eyes move from my face to my boobs and down to my waist.
“You’re beautiful” he calmly said.
We haven’t shared our first kiss yet. Honestly, I didn’t want to. The further we are apart, the better it is for me to do the bidding of my father.
He stretched out his hand and I held him firmly as we both worked out of the room into the one of the cars parked in the garage
“Can you tell me where we are going to?” I asked with curiosity lingering in my voice.
“You’ll be surprised” he said with so much assurance in his voice.
The car suddenly stopped, and the driver opened the door for us. I couldn’t believe my eyes.
This was the most beautiful restaurant I’ve seen in my life. I can tell everybody sitting here is a billionaire.
The ambiance was serene, and I could feel people staring daggers at me, it was as if I didn’t belong there, or I was with the wrong man.
“Why is everyone staring at us”? I curiously asked.
Before I could get an answer, a lady walked to Alexander and kissed him deeply, and he returned the kiss while still holding my hands
