The Billionaire's Kept Woman

Chapter 23 - Painful Memories



Chapter 23 - Painful Memories

Karmina smiled at the latest photo of her daughter with the man that would make her happy.

"Madam, everything is ready." The personal nurse that Alessandro gave to her helped her to get into the wheelchair.

She had her heart transplant and slowly recovered. Soon, a car was waiting for them outside as bodyguards covered her and helped her get into it. It was a long drive however, the car had food for her and a television.

"Mom, I promised to bring you back home." It's the words that Alessandro promised to her. Now, at the moment, they are on their way to Malaysia to attend an event and for their honeymoon.

"I love watching this contest." Her Nurse Miya said. "The Golden Age produced this exciting singing contest and I am already a fan of Vincent Villaflor." She sighed.

"Who's Vincent Villaflor?" Karmina asked as he glanced at Nurse Miya.

"He's a kid that topped the semi-finals. And he was challenged by the President of the Golden Age to sing in a different genre just like other contestants."

"Hmm, that's a very good tactic," Karmina mumbled. She never thought that her daughter would learn so much from her father.

It's just that her father died earlier. Their life became miserable after that and everyone took their things. She managed to sneak out money from the vault and her father saved up funds for their daughter.

After they took everything, she rented a house and searched for a job to feed herself and her daughter. Although she's been a rich housewife, Karmina knew how to work. But she avoided working for big companies since she knew well that the man who stole their family company was out there, playing on them.

He remembered that time that Alessandro showed up. She looked hopeful and she was relieved when he mentioned that her sweet Keira is safe. He told her that he married her so no one would ever hurt her. They are supposed to get married to anyone after college. But they didn't make it.

After graduation, she gets into an accident and they have to rush her to the hospital and take her to the US for another operation and therapy. She told Alessandro everything that even after her therapy, they reached home and it became chaotic.

There are people in their house and they beat up her husband. Then, in the morning, her husband didn't come home and she received a letter from her husband that she had to hide with her daughter and take care of each other.

That time, they were about to leave and she was almost raped after she declined Jeremy Cha many times and even went after her daughter. There were police who came called by their neighbors and they were saved. Few of her friends even helped her escape and gave her a place to stay. So, they leave the area and hide. Her daughter was in pain and shaking and she didn't manage to continue her therapy since they were penniless.

Suddenly a gigantic gate came into view and a long drive to the villa. Outside the villa are the staff of the house and greet her. She managed to walk with the assistance of her nurse. There's also a therapist who greeted her warmly.

"Hello, Mrs. Del Carlo. I'm Linda, the head maid of this villa. Master De Alegre requested a special room for you. Also, we will be attending for your health."

"Thank you, Linda." She smiled at her and reached her hand. "So, did my daughter eat well when she was here?"

"Yes, of course, Ma'am. Master De Alegre would always make sure that she's eating well."

"That's a relief."

"We set up your lunch, Ma'am."

"Thank you."

Kuala Lumper, Malaysia

It's a busy city just like back in the Philippines. She peeked at the window of the car as her eyes widened on the twin tower that they passed by.

"Let's go there!" She pointed to it.

"Sure, but first. Let's have a nap and sexy love-making." Alessandro murmured to her.

"You are bold, really!" She hissed at him. Never did they care that they are riding with Alessandro's parents.

"Make quick on giving me a grandchild," Alexander said with a grin. She flushed and pinched Alessandro who was laughing.

"Sure, dad. We will make this honeymoon memorable."

"Honeymoon? Is that even your term to your woman?" Margarette asked with creased brows. Alessandro didn't want to waste his energy on her step-mother. And it's a good thing that his wife ignored it.

"How about Singapore?" Alexander asked. "It's a good place."

"Sure," Alessandro said as they both looked at their tablet. He booked the best hotels in Singapore while his wife was busy admiring things around.

They soon reached their hotel and Keira felt awkward whenever they bumped with De Novo. They checked in on the hotel and she noticed that he ordered a honeymoon suite for them. He wrapped his arms around her waist possessively as the busboy took the luggage. They squeezed in on the same elevator. She could feel Tracey's glare toward them but Alessandro was busy murmuring to her ear. She would grin and nod at him.

Her phone chimed and she checked it as her mother took a selfie with her nurse in the new room. She looked up at him with full of sincerity and he gently kissed her forehead. She hugged him back and the elevator chimes. They stepped out and the busboy with them took them to their honeymoon suite.

"You also have access to the pool and gym, madam, sir." The busboy said in fluent English.

"Thank you," She said and she looked around. There are candles set around and a towel that was made into two kissing swans. The room was big and there's also a jacuzzi in the bathroom.

"We have good bath bomb soaps that you can choose and in different scents too." The busboy said.

Alessandro gave him a big tip as the busboy bowed his head. He removed his coat and let her roam around like a child.

"Shall we get into a bath and try that bath bomb soap?" he asked.

"Okay! I'll fill it in." She said excitedly.

"I'll order your bubble tea and how about sweets?"

"I'll just go with hot tea." She winked.

"Okay, stop teasing me now, Keira."

He went to the monitor where they could order the foods and drinks. Then, he followed her to the bathroom as they stripped. Once that jacuzzi tub is filled with water, she takes the pink bath bomb and throws it on the water. It looked beautiful as she watched it dissolve quickly. She slipped on the water and searched for the surprise. She smiled at the round ball from the bath bomb and raised it.

He joined her and turned on the jacuzzi as it bubbled. She opened it and her eyes widened on the twenty-dollar bill.

"Look!" She exclaimed and gave it to him. He checked if it's real.

"It's real." He said.

"I'm going to keep this." She put it back on the cylinder and put it on the basket. He moved closer to her and hugged her tightly.

"It's nice that you are smiling more, Keira… I missed it."

She froze from his words. But she wrapped her arms around him. Then, if they have a past together, Keira would never let him go. It might be childish of her but she wanted to be loved by this man who pampered her so much and even gave their family business. He gently pushed her and scooped her face. He started kissing her face. She giggled and let him have his way. It's their honeymoon anyway.

"I bought plenty of condoms and let's make sure not to break any. We have lots of things to do."

"Yes, of course." She sighed and thought about her mother. "But mom will be okay in that Villa? Since we've been living in the penthouse?"

"Yes," He nodded and took a ponytail from the basket that removed the tag. Then, he gathered her long curly hair and tied it up in a messy bun on top of her head. "Mom needs fresh air for her therapy rather than staying in the city. We can always visit her if you want."

"Great." She leaned on the jacuzzi. "But, your parents and your fiancee~~"

"She's not my fiancee. I am committed to you." He pointed to her nose. "Let's hurry up."

"I'm still enjoying the bathtub." She pouted. The doorbell rang and he stood in front of her. She flushed seeing his erect manhood. He took the robe and put it on as he left the bathroom.

He spoke to the staff as they delivered the food. Then, he came with a hot tea and a boiler. Then, the fresh sliced fruits are her favorites and it's also a compliment on the red tea. He smiled whenever she looked happy that way.

"Alex, wouldn't your step-mom get angrier toward me?"

"Why would she? And I don't care if she's angry. Besides, dad likes you more."

She smiled nervously at the thought of his father telling them to make babies.
