Chapter Sixty-four
Nikolai opened his mouth but before he could say a word, she stopped him by covering his lips with hers.
“Don't say a word,” Belle pleaded. She could already feel him hardening while he was still inside her. “If you want to tell me something, don't say it yet. Let's not ruin this moment.”She has no idea what his response could be. To be honest, she'd rather not have a clue.If he tells her she loves him, she would end up not believing him. If he tells her otherwise, it would only hurt him. There was no need to rush things. Her confession was not even a question that needs an answer. It felt like the right moment to say it, and so she did with no expectations.Nikolai must have gotten the clue. Switching their positions with him kneeling in front of her, he spread her leg wide as she obliged.“I'm yours, Isobelle.” He entered her slowly. He looked at his hardness slowly disappearing as he buried himself inside of her. “All yours.”Related chapters

“Woah.” Belle was about to open her car when Jessica appeared out of nowhere.“I’ll drive you, Miss.”‘I forgot about you,’ she thought. That sounded rude in her head so, she settled with not letting her intrusive thoughts win and kept her silence.“You’re still…” she stalled as she thought of a better way to ask if this woman is still working. She has not seen her for a couple of days and Belle genuinely thought that she lost her job because being her personal assistant, bodyguard, or whatever she was supposed to be was a waste of money. “You’re still working. I see.”Jessica gracefully extended her arm, guiding, or rather directing Belle to go the other way and ride the passenger’s seat.“You’re seriously coming with me?”“For me to do my job, miss, I would have to stay near you. Close proximity at all times.”That was true, and that was also too much. There was really no point in having an assistant when she’s only starting her job. It’s not even a job that requires security, for g

Now that Jessica mentioned about Nikolai’s father, it has dawned on him that she has never seen that man before. He knew about him, but even at the party, he has never shown his face.Oliver Laurent. Aside from his name and the openly known fact that he owns an empire of business, specifically in Aeronotics and Energy, there was little to know about him.“What-”“Don’t ask questions about him or even try to know. He’s a very private man and he would much prefer to remain to be that way,” Jessica warned her. “Just trust me, Belle. And don’t worry. I won’t be coming with you to work. I’ll stay in a close distance, but far enough so I wouldn’t be seen. I just have to see your co-worker’s faces… for security purpose.”No one poses a threat in her current workplace. She has seen and talked to everyone. Well, there’s Leo who, compared to everyone, has the most potential to be a villain. Even he doesn’t seem to be that dangerous.Or is he? He’s not so sure anymore.As expected, she was early

Belle was drinking her second cup of coffee as the sound of lively music played loudly in the background. She was trying her best not to fall asleep and asked Nikolai in person the same question he asked on the phone.She won’t be kept in secret this time. She hated that. Like sometimes, they are taking advantage of the fact that she can’t remember most of her life.She won’t be able to do what Nikolai was asking for, anyway. Avoid the person she was expected to work closely with? It would be easier to resign and walk away. An option that she does not even consider.Finally, she heard the sound of the door opening. She lowered the volume of the pop music she wasn’t even paying attention to.“You’re here.” She smiled at Nikolai.The dark circles under his eyes were a cry for sleep. Nikolai sighed upon seeing Belle. “Why are you still awake?" She felt a slight wrench in her chest. “I thought we could talk, but it’s okay. You seem

Belle wanted to be rational about this. To determine what was the right thing to do and find the courage to do it. Like those steps found in self-help books on how to be the better person for every situation.However, that was easier said than done. Right at that moment, when her head was filled with judgment, the truth almost didn't matter. She will believe what she would like to believe. Her emotions were all over the place. She felt disgusted and to know that this was out of her control made her even more frustrated.Her eyes started to water and the only thing that was stopping her from breaking down was knowing that Leo was standing near her.“Disappointed, but not surprised.” He muttered to himself, but it was obvious he wanted Belle to hear it, too.Belle couldn’t take it anymore. “Can’t you keep your opinions to yourself? Even for a second?” She asked, visibly hurting.Nikolai wouldn’t cheat on her. He promised he would never. Sti

‘I’m alive? I’m still live, right?’ was the first question that came to Belle’s mind. If she could feel the pain and the rush of panic as the truck approached them, then the answer would be yes. She is hurting, but nonetheless, alive to feel pain.Her head throbbed with a headache.‘What happened? Where the hell am I?’ she asked herself.Even if she wanted to ask the words out loud, she could barely move. The pain was bearable, but the processing of information made her lie down frozen. Almost every part of her body felt numb.“Isobelle.” She recognized Nikolai's voice before she could even see him. His voice was on the verge of breaking. Nikolai cleared his throat, trying to conceal the vulnerability.If Belle would open her eyes, she would have the chance to see that concern reflected in Nikolai’s face. ‘But I don’t want to. Not right now.’ She told herself as she processed everything that had happened.“I know you're awake.” N

It was overwhelming.She could barely hold the phone. Hell, it was even hard to find enough strength to stand up. Even at her weakest, she wished she had enough strength to land a slap on Nikolai's cheek to save a teeny-tiny bit of self-worth.And yet, she couldn't. Belle stood frozen, still hoping Nikolai could come up with some shit of an excuse that would explain everything. Like she would always do.“If you would tell me it isn't true, I will believe you.” She pleaded, not giving a fuck about how desperate it may sound. “So, tell me, Nikolai. Tell me this didn't happen.”“There's nothing going on between me and Evelyn.” He finally said something. Though it wasn't exactly what she wanted to hear.“Tell me you didn't fuck her.”Both Nikolai and Leo seemed taken aback by her straightforwardness. Nothing else matters right now. All she wants is the truth, not a sugar-coated lie.“No. I can explain this, Isobelle.”“Okay. I will be an idiot trying to listen to you. Go.”“I have no idea

Belle had several theories formed in her head. Hearing it out loud and from Leo himself still came as a surprise.Her lips slightly parted in surprise. It was even clearer now, all those similarities that he shared with Nikolai.“You're really brothers?” She wanted to confirm once more.“Half-brothers… allegedly. It was never confirmed. Nobody really dared to confirm. Those who knew the truth never bothered to speak out, those suspicious never asked.To say that she was curious was an understatement. She wants to hear everything, from start to end. This was big news! The anticlimactic bored face from Leo isn't stopping her from wanting to hear the story.“But… but how?”“I don't think I should be the one telling you this. If you want the drama, the whole plot, go ask your husband.”“Soon-to-be ex-husband,” she corrected.Leo smirked. “Nah. I doubt so.” He crossed his arm that were filled with bruises.
The Wife's Return Chapter Seventy-two
Someone knocked on her door late in the evening. The lights on her room were still and he must have figured out that she was still awake.They have never slept in the same room since the confrontation. It was hard enough for her to stay in the same house and eat breakfast at the same table as Nikolai. All this she did for Liam.Belle unlocked the door, and Nikolai was standing outside. She would always avoid looking in his eyes and this is the first time she's seen the stress reflect on his face.“Can we talk now?” He gently said. It was the first time he asked.“Okay.”Instead of letting him in, she took a step outside and led the way to the nearest lounge area. Her room was a mess. Aside from that, it would be safer to talk somewhere far away from a bed where ‘talking’ can be translated into something else.“Let's talk here.” Belle took a seat and signaled Nikolai to sit, too. She's much more calm now than she was days before.
