My Accidental Husband Is My Revenge Partner - Chapter 231

Chapter 231: Which Betrayal?
“I missed you,” Anastasia confessed as he rubbed Xavier’s arm that was wrapped around her neck, keeping her in place as he cuddled her from behind.

“I missed you more,” he replied, kissing the top of her head as he breathed in her scent.

Anastasia chuckled lightly, rubbing his arms even more gently as she smiled in satisfaction.

Xavier had returned after spending a few weeks away from home, dealing with a certain person who kept killing innocent people.

When he returned earlier, he found Anastasia in the shower. Unable to resist, he got into the shower, filling her up from behind—making the shower turn steamy.

As if that wasn’t enough, he lifted her and rushed to the bedroom, filling her up once again, arms wrapped around each other, unwilling to let go unless they’d had their release.

After their steamy night, they slept. The next morning, Xavier got a boner and they continued from where they left off.

Currently, they lived in the aftermath by talking about their previous days.

“How are the girls?” Anastasia asked.

Xavier had informed her of his success in rescuing the girls kidnapped and ready to be sold to people, but he made sure to leave out any detail that would be of bother to her.

“They’re safe,” he replied. “Regarding Michelle…”

“I can handle her well,” Anastasia said confidently. “I just can’t wait to see what she would come up with this time around,” she added, turning and nuzzling into his shoulders.

Xavier was confident with her reply. She had always been able to handle things well.

However, Michelle had Theodore Perez by her side. Due to the research he’d done on him, Xavier could see the man came from a very influential family. The Perez family’s connection stretched beyond their country—reaching overseas and further.

He couldn’t help but be worried for her safety. Not only was his mortal enemy after Anastasia, but Michelle was still bent on ruining her.

“I’ll be assigning two bodyguards to be with you wherever you go,” he suddenly declared.

Anastasia didn’t bother to argue with him, because her words would only fall on deaf ears.

It was already following her around while making sure his presence didn’t disturb her. And now, Xavier wanted to add two more bodyguards. She couldn’t help but worry if he was protecting her only from Michelle and Theodore, or if there was more to it.

Anastasia released a long sigh, knowing Xavier wouldn’t tell her anything if she asked because he didn’t want her to worry.

“Xavier…” She called.

“Hmm…”

“You know we’re married, right?”

He hummed again, wondering where she was heading to.

Anastasia pulled her face away from his neck so that she would be able to stare into his eyes. “So, you can share absolutely anything with me. You know that too, right?”

“I share everything with you,” he replied. Anastasia cocked an eyebrow.

“Not all the time, because you fear I will worry.” She placed her hand on his. “I don’t want to be a burden—”

Her words were cut short when Xavier swiftly captured her lips into a sweet and passionate kiss.

“You’ve never been a burden to me. Where are you getting your thoughts from?” He questioned after he pulled away.

“I’m sure something is bothering you, Xavier, but you don’t want to tell me.”

A smile grazed Xavier’s lips when he heard her. “Nothing is wrong. If something is, I’ll certainly let you know.”

Anastasia stared at him for a few seconds before nodding in understanding. Xavier planted a soft kiss on her lips before he lifted her off the bed and took her to the bathroom to get showered.

After that, he took her to the dining table, chasing all the servants away and choosing to make her a delicious breakfast.

When they were done, Xavier opted to drive Anastasia to work and promised to pick her up during closing hours.

Just when Anastasia was about to step inside, she got a phone call from Tracie. She picked up the call.

“Has that two-faced bitch revealed her so-called evidence?” Tracie asked over the phone.

Anastasia smiled.

“I’ve not heard anything from her so far,” she replied.

“Well, in that case, if she does contact you, let me know immediately, okay?”

“Okay.”

Anastasia sighed when she hung up on the call.

Just when Anastasia was about to step inside the building one more time, she felt a gaze burn at her back. She turned but didn’t see anyone who could be staring directly at her since everyone was going about their business.

Frowning, she shrugged off the feeling she was getting and strodded inside the company.

In a fancy car that stood out from the other regular cars, a creepy smile stretched on the lips of a man as he watched the back of a certain lady disappear into the entrance of the company opposite him.

“I must say, Xavier sure has good eyes. Just look at how beautiful his wife is,” the man commented.

The man seated next to him nodded in agreement. “She looks very suitable for it.”

“Very suitable,” the first man agreed.

In Anastasia’s office, as soon as she was about to take her seat and get started with the day’s work, Leo knocked on the door.

“I found something,” he announced the moment he entered the office.

“What?” Anastasia asked.

An hour later, a meeting was scheduled.

Anastasia entered the meeting room where all the shareholders were already waiting for her.

As soon as Anastasia made her way in, Logan wasted no time and began, “You should know by now that scheduling a meeting at the last minute is unacceptable. And then threatening us if we don’t show up? That’s incredibly childish of you, Mrs. Wallace.” His voice was sharp, laced with frustration, as he fixed his gaze on her. The tension in the room thickened as everyone waited for her response.

“I assure you, Mr. Martins, this meeting will not waste your time,” Anastasia said as she took a seat, crossing her legs with calculated poise. Her gaze swept across the room before she continued, her voice cold and commanding.

“Now, which one of you betrayed this company and signed a partnership deal with Nexera Enterprise without consulting me first?” Her words hung heavy in the air, and the tension deepened as the shareholders exchanged uneasy glances.
