AFTER DIVORCE, I BECAME A POWERFUL HEIRESS AND HIS OBSESSION CHAPTER 8 - BAGS
"Can you freeze the account?" Bianca asked while she leaned over my shoulder to read the screen."I can do better than that," I answered. I typed a new command and redirected the routing numbers to an untraceable offshore account that Bianca created for emergencies. "I just stole his payment, so his mercenaries are going to be very unhappy tomorrow morning."I closed the laptop and handed it back to her. The adrenaline faded again, and I needed a moment to breathe. I asked the doctor where the restroom was, and he pointed down the short hallway.I walked into the small bathroom and locked the door behind me. I turned on the sink and splashed cold water onto my face. When I looked up at the mirror above the sink, I did not recognize the woman staring back at me.My skin was pale and drawn tight over my cheekbones. Dark circles framed my eyes, and my hair was tangled and messy from the wind on the hospital roof. I looked broken and battered, but I also saw a spark of defiance in my eyes
AFTER DIVORCE, I BECAME A POWERFUL HEIRESS AND HIS OBSESSION CHAPTER 7 - SHADOWS
The loud roar of the helicopter engine faded as we touched down on the dark concrete runway. I sat in the leather seat while my hands gripped the safety harness tight. The adrenaline that kept me moving through the hospital stairwell was fading fast, and the reality of my fresh surgical wound settled deep into my body. Every breath I took caused a sharp, pulling ache in my left side, because the doctors had cut me open just hours ago to take my kidney.Bianca unbuckled her seatbelt and slid the heavy cabin door open. The cold night wind rushed inside, and it made me shiver under my bloody sweater."We are safe for now," Bianca said as she reached her hands out to help me stand. "We crossed the state line, but we need to get you off this airfield before Raphael realizes how far we flew."I tried to stand up, but my knees buckled under my weight. A sudden wave of nausea hit my stomach, and I had to lean heavily against Bianca's shoulder to keep from falling onto the metal floor. She wra
AFTER DIVORCE, I BECAME A POWERFUL HEIRESS AND HIS OBSESSION CHAPTER 6 - EMPTY ROOM
I walked out of Gabriella's recovery suite and closed the heavy wooden door behind me. The doctors said her surgery was a success, so I knew I did not have to worry about her anymore. I rubbed the back of my neck because the stress of the night weighed on my muscles. I played my part well tonight. I held her hand and acted like a devoted brother, but I only did it to keep her close and monitor her connections to Vincent.Now I needed to see my wife. I needed to see Arabella.I walked down the quiet hospital corridor. The fluorescent lights hummed above my head. I felt a knot of guilt form in my stomach as I approached her room. I forced her to undergo major surgery, and I forced her to give up a part of her body. I knew she hated me right now, but I accepted her hatred because it kept her safe from her uncle. I planned to walk into her room and sit by her bed until she woke up. I wanted to make sure she was resting without any pain.A young nurse walked past me holding a clipboard. Sh
AFTER DIVORCE, I BECAME A POWERFUL HEIRESS AND HIS OBSESSION CHAPTER 5 - ESCAPE
"Arabella, are you insane?" Bianca asked through the phone. Her voice shook, but I heard the sharp tone she always used when she was serious. "You have been missing for five years. I thought you were dead.""I thought I was dead too," I said. I pressed my free hand against the thick bandages on my stomach. "I do not have time to explain right now. Raphael Bellini has me in his private hospital. He took my kidney.""He did what?" Bianca yelled. I heard the sound of keys jingling in the background. "Tell me where you are.""Bellini Medical Center," I answered. "Seventh floor. VIP recovery wing. Can you get a helicopter to the roof?""Give me twenty minutes," Bianca said. "Do not let anyone keep you in that room. Move toward the stairwell.""I will," I promised, and I ended the call.I looked up. The nurse stepped forward. She looked panicked, so she reached for the call button on the side of the bed."Mrs. Bellini, you must stay in bed," the nurse warned me. "You are risking internal bl
AFTER DIVORCE, I BECAME A POWERFUL HEIRESS AND HIS OBSESSION CHAPTER 4 - SUPRESSED MEMORY
I heard the doctor's words clearly in my head. Prioritize the organ extraction over the donor's resuscitation.I tried to force my eyes open. I wanted to yell at them. I wanted to push the mask off my face and run out of the freezing room. But my body refused to obey my commands. The chemical gas filled my lungs and pulled me down into a deep sleep.I did not find peace in that sleep. The anesthesia triggered something in me I couldn't understand. I didn't know if it was a dream or reality. I was torn. It brought back the memories I had kept hidden for five years.First came the noise. I heard the loud screech of tires skidding on wet asphalt. I heard the crunch of metal folding inward. I heard the shattering of window glass.I was sitting in the back seat of a sedan. I felt the seatbelt dig hard into my collarbone. Rain lashed against the windows, and the wind howled outside."Arabella, hold on," my father shouted from the driver's seat. He turned the steering wheel hard to the righ
AFTER DIVORCE, I BECAME A POWERFUL HEIRESS AND HIS OBSESSION CHAPTER 3 - TRUTH
"What truth?" I asked, leaning forward against my seatbelt. My heart hammered against my ribs. "Marco, what do you mean by that?"Marco gripped the steering wheel tighter. His knuckles turned white under the streetlights flashing through the windshield. He kept his eyes locked on the road ahead."Forget I said anything," Marco replied. His voice was tense. "I stepped out of line. It is not my place to discuss Raphael's decisions.""You cannot say something like that and just tell me to forget it," I pushed back. I reached out and grabbed his shoulder from the back seat. "You said there is a reason he married me. What is the reason?"Marco shrugged my hand off. He did not do it with malice, but the rejection was clear. He slowed the car down as we approached the tall, illuminated building of the Bellini Medical Center."Mrs. Bellini, please," Marco said quietly. "We are here. Just focus on your procedure tonight."I sat back in my seat. Frustration built in my throat. Marco was the onl
AFTER DIVORCE, I BECAME A POWERFUL HEIRESS AND HIS OBSESSION CHAPTER 2 - CONSENT
I looked back down at the consent forms. They needed my signature on four different pages. I walked over to the desk, picked up a silver pen, and signed my name.Arabella Bellini.Each stroke of the pen sealed my fate. I was giving away a piece of myself, hoping it would buy me the love I craved. I
AFTER DIVORCE, I BECAME A POWERFUL HEIRESS AND HIS OBSESSION CHAPTER 1 - A MATCH
"You are a match for Gabriella." Raphael uttered the words while looking dead into my eyes."What?" I stuttered."The kidney," he said. "You are a match for her. She needs it urgently. I hope you will cooperate and not overreact."I sat on the edge of the leather sofa in his study and stared at him
