“How is he doctor?” Charlotte asked the doctor who had been in the ward Xavier was rushed to. He sighed and adjusted his glasses, making Charlotte’s heart beat in fright. “You’re lucky you brought him when you did,” he said. “The drug overdose may have damaged his organs or even gone to his brain.” A chill ran down her spine. “Is it okay if I ask you some questions?” She nodded. “Do you have any idea how those drugs could have entered his system?” He asked. “She drugged him. Laura, his ex wife,” she said with a small voice, uncomfortable because she had to answer these questions again. “I see,” the man said and scribbled something in a notepad. “It has come to my knowledge that this ex wife of his was also brought to this hospital. Is that correct ?” “Yes,” she said quickly. She wanted to know how soon her husband could be cured, not talk about the same woman who had put his life in danger. “If she was the person that drugged him, why then did she have more traces of it in

“Xavier,” she whispered as tears filled her eyes. His heart rate was fortunately normal according to the heart rate monitor above him and his chest was heaving slowly, so that meant he was breathing fine on his own. “Charlotte,” Xavier whispered, opening his eyes. “Xav…,” she muttered, looking at him carefully. “Are you okay? How do you feel?” “Better now that you’re here,” he said with a smile as he tried to sit up. “No, stay…” “Relax. I’m not in any pain,” he assured her. “I’ve just been close to unconscious for so long because of all the drugs. How are you?” She sighed. “You asked me to call the police before you passed out and I did, but now they’re acting like my confession is ridiculous. Somehow they believe this is all a PR stunt you and Laura pulled to stay in the public eye.” Xavier began to laugh, making Charlotte puzzled. “Why are you laughing?” She asked. “I wouldn’t have expected any different.” “Then why did you ask me to call them?” “So that when I com

Charlotte blinked twice before laughing drily and screaming h into her hands. Kate rubbed her back, understanding her sister’s reaction to the news of the return of her ex-husband, who was responsible for more than half of her predicament. “Who told you?” Charlotte asked. “I overheard on of the officers say it before they entered the ward some minutes ago.” “Maybe that’s why they asked me to leave the ward,” Charlotte thought to herself. “You know what, he’s not my problem right now,” she sniffled. “I have so much on my plate right now, but since he was dumb enough to return now, he’ll definitely be dealt with in due time. I mean, if the police were talking about him, then that means they’re on his case. Though at this point with everything that has happened with them, I’m not sure if that’s good or bad for us.” “There’s something I want to ask, Charlie.” “What is it?” Kate sighed. “Isn’t Carlos his bodyguard? Why wasn’t he around when this happened? And why isn’t here n

It was evening and Mia and her daughter had just left Xavier’s home. Charlotte was in her room with her husband, as they prepared for the night. Xavier had been irritated ever since he got back from the hospital, mostly because she vehemently refused to let him start some investigative work right after, but now, he was acting more irate than ever. “Is everything okay?” Charlotte asked him when he angrily tossed the remote when it wouldn’t work. “Of course,” he scoffed. “I almost lost all my organs because my ex wife poisoned me with what can be considered a love potion, my convicted nephew is back, your sister’s entire family is here, and right now I’m in the midst of a police investigation that might not end well for me, so yeah. I’m terrific,” he said in a dry voice. Charlotte frowned. “I was just being nice,” she said, wishing she hadn’t said anything at all. “Sorry I said anything and sorry my sister’s family is such an inconvenience to you. Maybe we can all go down to t

Charlotte’s eyes rolled into their head when the first thrust from Xavier came, shutting up anything she would have had to say. This position had always been too intense for her, especially when he held both her hands together on her back and thrust in and out of her without stopping. She moaned out loud when he began to hit her g-spot, her back arching naturally and the pressure from her body being stretched soon disappeared. Without warning, he lifted her from her shoulders and placed her hands on the headboard of the bed, making her arch her back more than before. Her mouth hung open as his thrusts seemed to get deeper and the feeling of the front of his crotch hitting her butt drove her crazy. “You think I’m still into her, huh?” He asked in a strained voice that shook as he moved. “You think I’d rather leave all of this, all of you, for her? For anyone?” She smiled as her moans got louder. “You’re literally perfect!” He groaned, turning her on her back and laying at
