The Devil’s Convenient Wife Chapter 39
ZARA’S POVI didn’t expect this turnout of events and this dumb-faced Jack was to blame. I was expecting him to propose to his ‘girlfriend’ but it turned out the person he was with wasn’t even his girlfriend.“I wish I could smack his head,” I breathed heavily.“She will do that for you,” Cael replied, pointing at the real girlfriend. The girl in turn slapped Jack and the girl he was cheating with pulled Jack aside, saying, “Don’t hit him. You can’t blame true love.”“So he loves you truly, that’s what you are saying?” the real girlfriend asked. “Say that one more time and I’m going to smack you as well.”“You won’t,” the other lady replied. Let’s call her a side quest from now on. “If you are going to touch him, you will have to go through me first.”“Who says I won’t do that?” The real girlfriend stepped forward. I could see rage in her eyes.“I hope she won’t do something she will end up regretting,” I whispered to Cael. “This guy called Jack isn’t worth doing anything reckless for
The Devil’s Convenient Wife Chapter 38
ZARA’S POVThe flames flared up violently and I backed off, my heart beating hard. The housekeeper rushed to turn off the gas and covered the pan with a wet cloth. She grabbed the fire extinguisher in case the fire would rage but it didn’t. All I heard was some hissing from the pan and it all ended.By now, Cael and a couple of the household staff had found their way into the kitchen and if any of them had questions about who was at fault, the housekeeper’s fiery glance at me would answer their questions.“Are you okay?” I asked her gently, hoping she wouldn’t shout in reply.She lowered her head and by the time she raised it, she had a smile on her face, “Of course, I am fine. How about you? Hope you aren’t injured?”“I am very fine,” I replied with a nod. “I was thinking… How about we stop making the crepes now?”“Of course,” she replied with a sinister tone. “If we continue, one or both of us might end up dying.”**You would agree with me that the picnic had gone wrong right from

ZARA’S POV“I’ll take it,” Cael rose up and walked to the door. I smirked, he wouldn’t have expected me to get the door, would he? Anyway, I watched him open the door and also saw the blank expression on his face the moment he did. I was about to rise out of curiosity when a familiar figure came inside.The housekeeper.Cael closed the door after her and then she moved closer. She gave me a big smile and asked if I slept well.“I did,” I replied, still holding my fork. “I wasn’t expecting you here, not this early in the morning.”“I had to come,” she replied. “Today is the last you spend in Paris for your honeymoon, it should be beautiful and I intend to make it so.”I sighed, “You care too much, maybe too much for your own good.”“I will worry about that myself,” she replied gladly.“What do you have for us today? I am quite excited to hear it,” Cael said gently.“I am not really excited,” I muttered. “If it is my last day in Paris, I think I want to be in bed all day. The moment we

ZARA’S POV“If you are going to sleep with me when drunk, how about you just do it while you are sober?” Cael asked coldly. I stared at him, watching as he betrayed no emotion. He was just standing there, waiting for my reply.“You… You…” I stammered. I took a deep breath, hoping to stabilize this heart of mine beating crazily. When I eventually spoke, all that escaped my lips were, “You are crazy, Cael.”I walked away at that moment, searching for the bathroom. I remained holed up in there, trying to figure out the next step. Whether I liked it or not, I still had to spend the night at the suite with Cael. At first, I kept the water running to make it seem like I was busy there and then next, I showered. However, after spending thirty minutes showering, I knew it was time to come out of the bathroom. I had a simple plan in place. To avoid mistakes, I would have him sleep on the couch while I used the bed. Cael wouldn’t disagree as he was a gentleman to some extent.I was wearing a sh
The Devil’s Convenient Wife Chapter 35
VICTOR’S POV“You know what, Ada? I think I have realized why they say home, sweet home,” I said. I was in the back seat of the car, enjoying the scenery as the car moved. “Paris was all good but it had this coldness to it, not the kind of cold that makes you cover up.”Ada nodded, “You are always right, sir.”“At least be more sincere when you lie,” I retorted.“I will try harder,” she replied brazenly. I was taken aback but it didn’t last long. Such bouts of audacity from Ada were not too strange. I rested in the car and soon, we got to the head office. I had asked to be brought there straight from the airport.Ada and I stepped out of the car and entered the main building. As we walked past staff members, they stopped to give a little, curt bow. Both of us entered the elevator and no one else dared to enter with us. It was an unwritten rule, no one but my close confidants rode on elevators with me.We got to the top floor and I stepped out of the elevator first. As I walked down to
The Devil’s Convenient Wife Chapter 34
ZARA’S POVAs I saw the blank expression on Cael’s face, I started laughing. I had thought he was upright to a fault but here he was, proving me wrong. He was just like every other person, putting his pride first.“It must have bruised your pride to watch me fall asleep while we were making out,” I said, intrigued by him.He scoffed, “You don’t know what you are saying.”“I’m quite sure I do,” I replied in turn. Cael turned away from me and from the look of things, I concluded he was thinking.“Why did you pretend to not remember?” he asked as he turned towards me. His eyes were depicting betrayal and I struggled to hold back my laughter.“Because I didn’t remember…” I pointed out. “Why would I lie about something like that?”“So all of a sudden, the memories returned?” he asked without expecting a reply. “You’ve got to be kidding me.”He stood up, eager to leave. I stood to confront him but I wasn’t able to as the housekeeper approached us at that exact moment. She had insane timing,

The Devil’s Convenient Wife Chapter 3
ZARA’S POVThe elevator doors had barely closed behind us before Cael had me pressed against the cold metal wall. His lips crashed down on mine with a hunger that stole what little breath I had left in my lungs.This kiss was nothing like the polite one at the chapel. This one was hungry, demanding

ZARA’S POVI looked outside the window, taking in the bright city lights that shone ahead of us. I sat in the passenger seat, as my heart pounded like a free rock-and-roll concert was being held there.While Cael on the other hand was driving calmly, his eyes on the road, one hand on the wheel, and
The Devil’s Convenient Wife Chapter 1
ZARA’S POVI pushed open the apartment door, my overnight bag was still hanging from my shoulder. The place was quiet. A little too quiet if I might. Marcus was supposed to be at work, but his car was parked downstairs. I smiled a little. Maybe he came home early to surprise me.“Marcus?” I called,
