Bargain Bride: The Billionaire’s Forced Wife

THE MEDICAL PERSONNELS as well as the police authorities, led by Chief Pessi, arrived just a few minutes after the incident. Chiara wasn’t able to see the whole scene except the bloodied body of the woman. Ezio hurriedly pulled her to his side and put themselves in a safe place. They even see Giovanni and his mistress, Isadora, went to the other end of the hall, away from the awful scene.

“Let me go!” a voice of a screaming woman echoed inside the hall. Guests couldn’t help but to look from who the voice is coming from.

Chiara also removed her face from being buried on her husband’s chest to look at the scene. Her eyes widened when she saw the woman who is now being pulled by the police, is wearing the same dress of the woman who ran away from the railing on one of the floors.

“Did she pushed the woman off?” Chiara thought to herself.

The woman, whose old rose dress is now stained with dirt and hair loose and ruined, didn’t stop on shouting on the policemen’s face. Her hands kept on wiggling, trying to escape the tight grip of the officers.

But her petite body doesn’t have the enough strength to outdo the two officers dragging her out. On the back of them, just a few meters away, a man was running and huffing.

“Sera!” the man called the woman in old rose dress. He looked with anger at the officers. “Where are you taking my wife? She’s innocent!”

The woman he called Sera looked at him with pleading eyes asking for help. “Dear, help me please. I didn’t do anything, ” she spoke with teary eyes.

He cooed her wife and shushed her. “Don’t worry. I know you did nothing wrong.”

He was about to grab his wife when other officers blocked his way. “We have witness that this woman pushed the victim. She will be put under interrogation. If you want to defend her, then find a lawyer and go to the station, ” the tallest officer beside Chief Pessi spoke before signalling the men to get the woman out.

The couple screamed each other’s name, with their arms failing to reach other’s embrace. Sera was pushed inside the police car before she was taken away by them.

While Chiara was watching the scene unfold, she saw Ms. Coppola on the corner of her eye. She pulled her husband toward’s her friend’s position.

“Chiara,” Ms. Coppola spoke when they are near. Her hand was grabbing the suit of the man beside her.

“Are you okay?” Chiara asked before whispering. “I saw near the suspect, did you see what happened?”Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Ms. Coppola took a deep breath. “Yes, I saw it. I was just beside that woman, ” she answered, her eyes almost teary.

The man beside her hurriedly wiped the small tears beside her eyes. “I know you’re scared. Don’t worry, I’m here. She can’t hurt you, ” he spoke lovingly to Ms. Coppola.

Ezio’s eyes widened upon seeing the face of the man. “Damian?” he asked while looking at his appearance.

The name rang a bell for Chiara. She remembered that Dante mentioned that the name of his older brother is Damian, who he guessed went back to Italy because of Ms. Coppola.

The way he hugged her friend and wiped her tears, Chiara can already see the emotions this man has for Ms. Coppola. However, even though he is her husband’s bestfriend’s brother, Chiara cannot give her trust to this person until he can prove himseld. She wouldn’t hand her friend to him that easily, no matter how affectionate he looks.

“Mr. Vitali,” Damian spoke before bowing a little bit to show respect. Ezio just nodded back to him.

“Why would that woman push the victim?” Ezio asked.

No one answered his question. Even Chiara doesn’t know how to answer her husband. The only thing she can think of is that those two women have a beef between each other. That is the only logical reason she can find.

After a moment of silence, Ms. Coppola suddenly spoke. With a shaky voice filled with hatred, she stated.

“I was the one who’s supposed to be pushed, not the woman. Serafina was after me.”

THE NEWS ABOUT the death of a woman inside Soleira spread like a wildfire. Chiara was worried that the unfortunate event will have a negative impact on the resort, but her worries were nothing. The Soleira continued to soar, especially after paying for everything on the woman’s medical and funeral bills.

Although the celebration was cut short, the couple still did what they planned that day. They were about to meet Giovanni and his another mistress. Humiliating them is a bonus.

Chiara and Ezio was on the way to their main office, since it was the first month Ezio will come back to work. The two were engaged on planning their week when Chiara received a message.

Seeing that it came from Sophia, she hurriedly opened it to read her updates.

Sophia: Hi, Chiara. The mistress just invited me for a lunch with her circle. Should I go?

Chiara typed on the keyboard of her phone. They planned to get Sophia close to the enemy, which she agreed as a revenge for her husband. It was risky and difficult, but they have to put on a show.

Chiara: You can go if you want. Just make sure not to give much information about you, but take a lot from them, especially from Isadora. Take care, Sophia.

She turned off the phone after replying as they have already arrived in their building. Her husband opened the door for her before guiding her towarda outside.

“He is really a gentleman,” she thought to herself. Feeling lively, she gave a peck of kiss to her husband’s cheeks, which made thr latter blush.

With their hands intertwined, they walked towards the elevator to start their day. Chiara was worried that Ezio might get exhausted easily, since he just came from coma, from he proved her wrong.

He worked as if he didn’t encountered an incident and wasn’t put in a life and death situation. He worked efficiently while giving flirty remarks to his wife.

Ezio decided to make Chiara her secretary. His wife requested to him before to let her work in their company, just because she doesn’t have anything to do and she wants to help him in managing the company.

It’s a win-win situation for Ezio. He will be able to have his wife beside him almost 24/7. They will be together both in home and work. Aside from that, he could imagine the flirty and nasty things they could do inside their office.

Just like today.

Slurpy sounds echoed inside the office of the president, with his secretary slash wife. The married couple stopped their corporate tasks and put their attention in their heated bodies.

“Is doing things like this a kink of yours, huh? Tesoro?” Chiara whispered to his ear before biting it playfully.

She was sitting in his table while Ezio was standimg between her parted legs. They were still fully clothed, yet they can already feel the heat of each other’s bodies.

Ezio chuckled while teasing his wife by rocking his hips back and forth, touching her sensitive part with his hard one on every thrust. The clothes as barried between them didn’t stop them from feeling each other’s movement.

He cupped the back of her head once again, as his other free hand roamed on his wife’s body. Chiara let out a moan as his hand caressed her breast with a little force. It fitted perfectly under his palm, making him think that Chiara was really made for him.

Their lips locked into a kiss again. Chiara couldn’t help but to move her hands on Ezio’s back and pulled him closer. They were closer to each other now, and the heat became more evident on each other’s skin.

Chiara’s right hand travelled to her husband’s nape, teasing it for a few seconds, before travelling up to his hair.

On the first days of their intimate moments, Chiara noticed that Ezio loves it when she touched his hair while they were exchanging kisses, especially if she will grab and pull some hair.

Ezio responded by biting her lower lip, making her open it wider to accommodate his tongue who was impatiently waiting for the time to attack. The moment his tongue explores his mouth, several knocks were heard om the door.

Although they were annoyed because of the interruption, they still stopped and fixed the appearance of each other. When they already looked decent, it was Ezio who told the person outside to open the door.

“Boss,” Luigi spoke when he saw his signor. He went inside and gave them an ipad, showing a piece of news from a website.

“It was announced that the lawyer who was supposed to put Sigmund Russo out of prison was removed from their law firm. Also, her license was revoked, ” he reported, saying the exact topic on the news he provided.

Chiara turned her side to the side on a certain angle. “What was the reason?”

“It was found out that she breached a contract and confidentiality within her clients. Authorities also found out that she have been letting unlicensed people to use her name as a lawyer, deceiving a lot of citizens,” he responded with a faint smile which didn’t escape the eyes of the couple.

Chiara took a deep breath. She realized that Luigi revealed the information to the public because the lawyer didn’t cooperate with them. Well, they need do to it. They cannot risk to set another man of Giovanni free.

“Aside from that,” Luigi slid his finger on the screen and other tab was opened, but it was still a news one. “Authorities are now investigating the Bonetti law firm, as they have leads stating that the law firm is connected to the unethical deeds of the said lawyer.”

Ezio seemed surprised that the authorities did that. Usually, a law firm isn’t affected even if one of their lawyers was punished. So, what changed?

“Did you do it?” he asked his assistant, who immediately shook his head.

“The attack was not from our side, boss, ” he answered. “Our intel found out that a connection from De Santis law firm gave the lead to the police.”

His smiled became wider as he continued. “Also, the De Santis law firm requested to open the case of Boss Ezio’s shootinh incident.”
