Alex let out a weary sigh, wondering how he tolerated Bella’s attitude after their marriage. He reached up, unbuttoning his shirt as he fixed his tired gaze on the window. Just then, the room burst open, revealing Bella’s figure that stood in the doorway. Her gaze traveled to his broad back, and she took a nervous gulp before shattering the silence in the room.“So you won’t apologize to me or call me back?” Bella questioned, eyeing Alex, who hastily turned around, then he raised an eyebrow. “Why would you think I would do that? Do I apologize for no reason before?” Alex queried, while Bella pouted her lips.“Forget it,” Bella replied. Alex shrugged his shoulders and responded, “Okay,” before changing his clothes. Bella pouted again, then she approached him, with her hands wrapped around his waist. “What is wrong, hubby? You weren't like this."Looking down at her, Alex mumbled, “Maybe I changed because of your new habits of belittling people of lower status. It is not right, espec

“Thank you, sir,” Rita replied politely.“We should get a DNA test done, then also get you into the villa as a spy since you are more trustworthy than my other men,” Thomas rasped, and Rita nodded obediently.She grabbed her tablet quickly to begin with the arrangements for the DNA test, knowing that if the imposter was indeed posing as Alex, he would be exposed and Thomas would reward her with a fat salary.Meanwhile, Thomas leaned back in his chair, a wicked smirk forming on his face. "Once we have the evidence, we'll make sure this imposter pays for his audacity," he uttered, his voice tinged with joy.“Also, Rob was incompatible. He either failed to do the job or cooperated with Rex behind my back. Whatever he did, he must also pay for it,” Thomas added.“As you wish, sir. But what should be done to Rob?” “Execute him,” Thomas spoke tartly, causing Rita to gulp a non-existent ball of trepidation forming in her throat.“Executing him will not be a good idea, sir,” Rita uttered, he

Soon, the cops arrived in their cars, and a few reporters showed up to capture the scene of Garrett’s arrest.Garrett was led away in a police car while Lily walked away, feeling humiliated for boasting about him right in front of everyone.*** As Bella got into the bedroom in the villa, she found Alex in deep thought, all alone.“I can't believe you lied to me,” Alex mumbled, already aware of her presence.“I’m sorry. I didn't mean to,” Bella apologized, hoping he would accept her as he does. Suddenly, Alex stood up, his brows furrowed.“What else did you lie about?” Alex questioned, and Bella gulped. She noted that if he didn't reply or accept her apologies, it meant she had already pushed him to the wall.“Are you even my wife?” Alex inquired and Bella nodded vigorously. “I am your wife! Didn't you see the marriage certificates and pictures I showed you?! We are married!” Bella exclaimed, unwilling to see her marriage with him end. She approached, trying to sweet-talk. “Believe

Doubts arose in Thomas’s mind as he thought of what Rita wanted to discuss with him. He drove to her apartment, and walked in, his footsteps hitting the wooden floor gently with memories they shared lingering in his mind.Rita stood in the kitchen, her slender figure illuminated by the warm glow of the cooker. The tantalizing aroma of her cooking wafted through the air as it attracted Thomas’s attention. Thomas swiftly walked into the kitchen, his heart skipping a beat as he took in Rita’s appearance - she wore a short nightgown that barely reached her hip. The sight stirred a strange mix of desire and nostalgia within him. But he quickly dismissed those feelings, reminding himself that their relationship had ended.“You sent a message. What do you want to discuss with me?” Thomas rasped, his voice tinged with both anticipation and caution. Rita turned to face him, her gaze meeting him as she just noticed his presence.“Go have a seat. Dinner is almost ready.” Rita replied sweetly. T

“I will,” Mary responded, ending the call.Immediately Rob sensed that the call ended, he rushed out of the villa, recalling what Rita said about dealing with him since he was in the villa. He knew what she meant by dealing with him, and it’s best he ran when he had the chance.As he walked out of the villa, a van sped up towards him, its light making Rob blind to its approach. Instantly, the van hit Rob, sending him into the air as time seemed to stop. From that high distance, Rob dropped, his back hitting the ground with a slight bone-breaking noise.Blood gushed from his forehead. His eyes opened widely too, but his body was motionless. Hastily, the men in the van stepped out with a stretcher. They placed Rob’s unconscious body on the stretcher and rushed off, with their van disappearing into thin air.“He was taken into a van,” Mary uttered, looking through the window as a call was connected.“Good!” Rita responded, “I will inform Thomas right now while I prepare for the next pha
