The Billionaire's Kept Woman

Chapter 51 - Shredded Past

Chapter 51 - Shredded Past

"I think you know what you don't want to happen again." Doctor Sandra Lopez told her. "The trauma you had came to you through nightmares, am I right?"

"Yes," She mumbled. "Sometimes, it felt so real. Like I was in sleep paralysis." She mumbled as she stared at the ceiling while lying on the comfortable sofa.

"I'm listening."

"There's a girl, her face was blurry. It's more like she's familiar. Maybe I had seen her before. She deliberately turned her car to my lane to hit me and she drove back and pulled out something. Then, she said something… like she's owning someone. That it'll never be mine. And I think it's my husband." She looked at Sandra with a worried face.

Sandra Lopez nodded and hummed as a response.

"I want to know the truth."

"Do you know the reason why your head is blocking it?" She asked her.

Keira was confused but she didn't know why. Maybe because of anxiety? Maybe because she loved Alessandro so much back then that she could risk her life for him? But risking will be useless and she'll just let that crazy girl win. Now, she decided won't let anyone hurt her or Alessandro.

"I was a coward. Maybe…" She shrugged.

"When flashes of memories hit you, don't block it," Sandra said. "These memories will be painful to take in, but you need to relax and patiently go along with it. In that way, things like you witnessed today or yesterday will eventually help you get your memories back."

"I guess, I should do that." She sighed. "Is there such a person that has a great obsession with a certain thing, that could lead to kill or harm other people even at a young age?"

"That's not impossible." Sandra fixed her glasses. "It's because of the background, and how the people around her act that could stir inside someone's head to do something extreme. An obsession? It started with the lack of love that the person receives. Then, when one shows love, the obsessive person will grab it tightly. That the person could print in the head that, his or her world only revolves around the other person."

"So, how can I deal with someone like that?" She asked again.

"Hmm, if the obsessive person wants to play, then, let her. The most important thing is to make sure that she or he won't get in your head." Sandra said.

"You are the best," Keira told her. Sandra smiled at her.

"Well, thank you. Just call me anything or text me for questions."

"I'll do that."

Keira was told by Alessandro that Sandra Lopez became her best friend during her junior high to senior. She's the only one who stood up to her while she's being bullied and Sandra was one of Travis's ex-girlfriends back in that school. She didn't remember Sandra being her best friend but she knows her in that school. She's not that popular but she's smart.

Her appointment ended and she went back to her office to work. To her surprise, her dad-in-law visits with some snacks. The two ate together while discussing the compositions that she made for the upcoming rising stars in the Golden Age. When his phone vibrates it only means that he had another appointment.

"I'll leave you, dear." He kissed her forehead. "Don't tire yourself too much. You and Sandro need to be healthy."

She giggled and bounced her head to agree with him.

"Yes, dad. Bye."

He watched him leave her office. She sighed and rubbed her tummy. It's aching again because of blood clots that are coming out from her. She stood from her seat and held on the sofa as she frowned at her aching navel.

"President." Johanna entered. "Are you alright?"

"I need hot pads, please. I'll just change my~~" She mumbled and walked to the bathroom.

When she got back, she sat down on her sofa and Johanna came with the heating pad, mug, and a fleece blanket. She thanked her as she wrapped herself in a fleece blanket and she sighed on the heating pad pressed on her lower abdominal.

"Your husband called me. That's why I readied these things." She told her. "This is medicine for dysmenorrhea and warm water will be better."

"Thank you." She mumbled, feeling more relieved than before.

At six in the afternoon, she stayed longer in the office to finish the things that she left after she left for a check-up. Lots of things are going on and she needs to work faster than she expected. She's too occupied with the thought of Louise Madison's safety and the woman who was blackmailing her.

"President, your husband is here," Johanna said and she glanced at the clock to see that it's already seven.

"Shot!"

"Jo, you are dismissed and my assistant too. Sorry for keeping you here for hour overtime."

"It's fine, President. I have already finished all of the work for tomorrow too. We have loads of meetings for the upcoming event."

"Oh, yes. The end of the Season One of Genius Star." She mumbled.

Alessandro entered the office.

"Hey, we have to go and don't bring any office work." His husband demanded.

She nodded at him as Johanna helped her on clearing up her desk and put the files back in the drawer and locked it. She took her purse and her phone, then she walked toward her husband and kissed him.

"You want a massage?" He mumbled to her sexily.

"Yes, I could use that." She said, sounding too tired.

She's almost asleep when they reached home. Alessandro even carried her to the elevator since she's too tired to even walk. When they reached their penthouse, someone was in the front door. Alessandro frowned and kept his wife in her arms who was half asleep.

"What are you doing here?" he asked coldly.

"Well," Tracey crossed her arms. "I thought that I could have some time with you. But it seemed like someone already filled it up."

"My woman is tired. Leave now." He demanded as Keira opened her eyes and looked up at him. She turned her head to Tracey and frowned.

"Oh, hey Tracey." She said and yawned.

"Hey, yourself." She snarled. "Why are you still seducing someone's fiance?" She asked coldly.

"Well, I like seducing an engaged man." She said as she kissed Alessandro's cheek and kept her hand at his nape so she won't see her rings. Somehow, Keira enjoyed the charade and pissed off the brat. "Babe, I'm hungry." She pouted at Alessandro as Alessandro partially smirked and took her back inside. Then, she pressed her left hand to his chest to hide it from Tracey. Then, she smirked at Tracey as Alessandro entered the house and the door closed.

He took her directly to the living room, almost throwing her to the sofa. He sneered at her.

"Nice, shall we play lover and mistress?" He asked as he removed his coat.

"Sure." She giggled. "Shit, I have to go to the bathroom. I want dinner after it. Okay?" She said quickly as she kicked her shoes off and rushed to the bathroom.

"Please, prepare the dinner," Alessandro told the maids.

Keira fell asleep quickly after her husband massaged her back and her legs. She woke up at three in the morning, full of sweats, and her husband quickly gave her a glass of water. She drank all of it like she's been running for kilometers. He reached her shirt.

"Remove this." He said softly as she raised her hand and he lifted her shirt over her head and he wiped her sweats. "Why are you stressed lately?" He asked as he went to the walk-in closet.

"Well, I am not that stressed." She reasoned.

"Stress could give you bad dreams." He approached her with his pajama top and put it on her. He took her hair and brushed it her hair. "Love, tell me."

"I had a bad dream that I was being killed. Then, the faceless woman took you away from me."

He sighed and pursed his lips. He kissed her forehead and then her lips.

"I won't let anyone hurt you. And whoever she is, she'll pay. Besides, I am yours only."

"Sandro, why didn't you love anyone after me?" She asked softly, as her eyes looked like a lost puppy.

"I can't." He shook his head. "I promised to love you and marry you. Sure, there are a lot of women lingering around me. I thought about getting into a relationship but I was always disappointed with every woman in front of me. I still wish for you."

"Thank you for staying with me." She mumbled and reached his hands. "Thank you for waiting."

"Sure." He pressed his lips to her forehead for as long as he thought of the things that he went through. He tried hard not to cry in front of her. He didn't want to be weak in front of her. He should be the one who comforts her. But after he knows all of the things that she and her mother went through, his heart felt like it's been wrapped in a thorn as it was squeezed tightly.

"We can have morning sex later." She giggled and he released her forehead and rubbed it.

"Hey, don't tempt me again. Let's go back to sleep." He teasingly frowned at her and pointed to the pillow.

"I need orgasm." She mumbled. "It might have relieved my cramps." She said as she lay down and he moved to her right side and turned to her.

"It does." He kissed her forehead again. "Sleep now." He turned off the lights and wrapped his arms around her as she snuggled to him.

"I love you, hubby."

"I love you, more, wifey."
