Introduction
You betrayed me and now, you can get the fuck out of my life. Jenna and I"— he entwined their fingers together—" are a thing now."
"She's lying to you! She's manipulating you with her looks Alex! She's framing us, trying to ruin our lives!" I sobbed. "Sign the divorce papers now!" he thrusted the divorce papers at me but I bluntly backed away in pain.
**
" Louisa's perfect world crumbled when her husband, Alex, presented her with divorce papers.
The blow was crippling, coming at the very moment she had discovered she was pregnant – a miracle after three years of struggling with infertility.
The most crushing blow came when she realized that her husband has been sleeping with her best friend to hurt her.
Louisa was forcibly evicted from her home in the rain, jeered and mocked.
She's an orphan and has no one to turn to. Surprisingly after an accident, she met a stranger who revealed a shocking truth: she was the heiress to a vast fortune, left behind by her deceased parents.
Louisa moves on with her life and three years. She rose to prominence in the business world, forging a lucrative empire and raising her twins. She's cold as ice.
Then Alexander reappeared, remorseful and contrite. He badly wants to make things right and do whatever it takes to win her back..
Will she want him back into the lives of her kids?? Or will she give her heart to someone new.. Alexander's rival and former best friend.
Chapter 1
Louisa's POV
"Congratulations ma'am, you're pregnant!" The doctor announced happily, showing me the results with a cool smile.
"What? Doctor, I'm.." I stammered, my heart pounding forcefully as if I would go breathless. I couldn't believe this. I never knew it was possible.
Years ago I was diagnosed with endometriosis. I couldn't give birth. I had no hopes of having a little one in my belly, I knew I would never feel that special baby's kick.
"Yes ma'am, you're two months pregnant. The baby is safe." He smiled warmly and I nearly stumbled, but he caught me with a smile.
My head was spinning fast. My heart was bubbling with excitement. Finally Alex would be happy. In fact, his mother might even love me. I've suffered cruelty in her hands due to the mere fact that I, a poor simple girl, married into their wealthy family. When she discovered my infertility, her hatred for me worsened.
But now everything will be over. God has finally heard my prayers. He's finally given me a chance at happiness.
I thanked the doctor, trying so hard to hide my smile. For weeks, I've noticed slight changes in my body but I never had the guts to go for a checkup. Tonight, I felt restless so I had to sneak out to see a doctor without anyone's notice.
"Alex would be so happy!!" I squealed like a little girl as I rushed out of the hospital.
I decided to call him, barely containing my happiness. There's no way I'm waiting till I get home. Tomorrow we're going shopping for baby's things – I can't wait– and we'll spend the day together, just the two of us.
He picked up on the second ring. "Babe," I smiled breezily. " I have great news."
"So do I." He said in the coldest voice ever, making my heart skip a beat.
What's happening? Why did he sound that way? His tone was so brutal, as if he was suppressing deep seated rage.
I panicked, trying to play it cool. "What...?
My voice got stuck in my throat when I heard a deep throaty moan from the other end of the line.
"Ouch.. Xander!" A girl moaned sweetly, gasping for air. "Faster!!!!"
Alex immediately disconnected the call, leaving me speechless and flustered.
What's happening??? Was someone in the room with him? Were they.. making out???
I immediately boarded a taxi, my heart racing each second as I was driven to our mansion. I literally flew out of the car, desperate to get inside. In the process, I left my wallet in the taxi but I didn't care. I needed to get in now.
I was about to pass Jenna's room, when I heard the moanings loudly. Oh my goodness... Was that Alex's voice?
"Give it to me, baby!!"
"Faster... daddy!!"
I slammed open the door, my eyes widening with dread. My best friend, Jenna, who lived with us, was making out with my husband. Once Alex saw me, he made a deep grunt, ignoring me completely as he kept thrusting in.
She was pinned to the bed, naked, her legs over his shoulders.
My soul left my body. I felt like I was dead, my body turned cold. Slowly, I dropped to my knees, my body suddenly limp and useless.
"Alexander!! What the fuck are you doing??" I screamed madly, tears spilling out of my eyes.
Finally, he pulled out, zipping his trousers. "You loved that, sugar?" He asked Jenna who pouted, pecking his lips. She adjusted her lacy bra and torn panties.
The pain and anger swirling inside me threatened to consume me. This was the same girl I brought to my matrimonial home because a conflagration destroyed her apartment. She's been living with me for a year.
How could they?
"Oh don't act surprised, you bitch! You think you have a right to question me? After what you did?" He growled menacingly.
I gulped in nothing. "I don't know what you're talking about! What did I do?" I fired, trying not to cry. My chest was tightening.
He laughed harshly. "Denying huh?" He shook his head, pursing his lips. Then, he pulled out his phone showing me a video.
My heart cracked. There were some explicit videos and pictures of me and another man naked on the bed. We were kissing and sucking. What the fuck?? This.... never happened.
"You know, when Jenna told me this, I bluntly refused to believe it. She even showed me sultry conversations with you and some stranger, yet I never believed. Until the day you went with Clara to Washington for her business trip. While she was away you probably slept with men. There are at least five videos of you with five different men!!" He yelled with rage. "You can watch all of them, if you like."
"I got the video a month ago, the same day you got back from the Trip.."
"And since then, we've been sleeping together." Jenna added wickedly, twirling her slightly disheveled golden hair.
I looked at the girl who I called my best friend with disgust. I was speechless, my heart burning with pain. This felt like a joke because I've never for once strayed. I've been faithful to my husband. I would never do this to him.
"This isn't true, please! I would never do this to you! I'm your wife, we've been together for three years, yet you're trusting this stranger? Please Alex..." I tried to touch him but he pushed me forcefully and my butt slammed on the cold floor.
"The fact that you're lying is pissing me off. What have you got to lose bitch, why don't you just confess? I respected and trusted you and this is how you repay me? Making yourself cheap??" He growled with disdain.
"Alexander! I'm pregnant with your child!!" I gasped in desperation. "isn't that what you wanted?"
It's been his wish for years now. It was certainly a shocking revelation especially after I had a disease which nearly destroyed my womb. I never knew I would be this lucky to have a chance. It was incredible.
Alexander and I got married three years ago, and unfortunately I couldn't conceive. He was so thoughtful that he didn't harass me because of it, he made me feel loved. And that's the reason I'm still here – his family abhors me.
My mother-in-law is a shitty woman who vowed to make life miserable for me, but because of her son, she couldn't carry out her sick plans. Alex's sister was just like her. Cruel, psychotic maniac.
"I'm carrying our baby... it's so little, so cute... i.." I stammered, searching frantically for my purse only to remember that I left it at the cab. Shit! The reports were in there.
Alexander sauntered to a desk and roughly grabbed a file. He thrusted it at me, aggressively. "Here. We're done!"
My mind went black with shock as I tried to process everything he was saying. I knew what he was giving me even before I collected it. I exhaled deeply, my chest constricting
"Alexander.... what's this?" I asked in a cracked voice.
"Divorce papers! I'm done with a cheating slut like you!"
"What?" I gasped, my eyes widening with dread.
This can't be happening.
