After Betrayal, I Married a Billionaire Chapter 85
“Doctor, what’s that sound?”A faint cry pierced the bone-chilling silence. My hearing slowly returned, creeping upward through the cold and the pungent scent of antiseptic in the air. I wasn’t dead. The cold that had gripped my soul melted away as a wave of consciousness pulled me back to reality.My eyelids, which felt as heavy as boulders, slowly opened. The operating lamp's glow was blinding, forcing me to blink several times to dispel the haze clouding my vision. Tears trickled down my face, rolling past my temples, which were damp with cold sweat that had poured profusely throughout that nerve-wracking ordeal.I whispered softly, my lips pale and dry. "Doctor...where am I?"A woman in medical scrubs approached, smiling warmly from behind a mask covering half her face. She leaned down slightly and held a tiny, rosy-cheeked body wrapped in warm, sterile cloth."You're still in the operating room, Emma. We had to save you and your baby right away," the doctor said in a voice filled

The doctor furrowed his brow, confused by my sudden reaction. “Why are you apologizing, Mrs. Emma?”Rex immediately knelt down beside my bed. He clasped my cold fingers tightly and gently stroked the back of my hand."Nothing's wrong, Doctor. We’re so grateful,” he said firmly. Then he looked at me with a warm gaze. "Everything's fine, Emma. Never apologize for something as beautiful as this."He then looked up at the doctor. “How are my wife and the baby doing right now, Doc?”The doctor's expression slowly turned serious. He adjusted his stethoscope and pointed to several numbers on the graph displayed on the monitor.“Your baby is developing, but is smaller than expected for this stage of pregnancy,” the doctor explained cautiously. "In addition, there’s a slight issue with the baby’s nutrient supply. Mrs. Emma must maintain a healthy diet, get enough sleep, and avoid stress and fatigue.”Panic instantly washed over Rex’s face. He squeezed my hand tighter. "Please make sure my wife

"You look so beautiful today, Emma." The mirror in the luxurious salon reflected the blush on my cheeks. Rex stood tall behind me with a gentle smile. He rested his chin on my shoulder and kissed my forehead, his touch soft and protective. For the first time in a long while, I felt my soul was fully restored. The gloomy woman shrouded in fear and regret was gone. I finally understood what it felt like to truly fall in love and just how sincere and immense Rex’s love for me was. I slowly turned my body, touching his strong jawline with my warm palm. "I've never felt this whole before, Rex. Thank you for loving me this much.” Rex smiled sweetly and stroked the back of my hand resting against his cheek. "As long as you're happy, I'll give you anything, Emma. Anything.” That day, Rex pampered me completely. He took me to a place I’d only ever dreamed of and instructed the salon staff to pamper me from head to toe. The gentle scalp massage, soothing lavender aromatherapy, and warm r

“Emma, what do you really want?”The question hung heavy in the cold afternoon air after coming out of Rex’s mouth. A light drizzle dampened his shoulders and soaked the cemetery ground. Suddenly, silence fell between us, leaving behind the scent of wet earth and the gentle rustle of wind through frangipani leaves.My eyes instantly welled up with tears. I stood frozen, trying to take in every inch of his eagle-like gaze so gentle yet so demanding of certainty."I...I've thought everything through carefully, Rex," I said, my voice trembling heavily as I tried to steady myself, even though my chest felt tight. "I know how our relationship has to end."I wiped the corners of my eyes, which were beginning to well up, and held back the sobs rising in my throat."I know my place, Rex," I continued softly. My tears finally fell, streaming down my cheeks alongside the drizzle. "I know I've hurt you so much all this time."Rex didn’t interrupt. He stood tall, letting the evening breeze play w

"Wait a moment in the car."Rex’s baritone voice cut through the light drizzle that was dampening the cemetery grounds. The door of the luxurious black sedan parked by the roadside had just opened, revealing a man in a neat suit stepping out while holding a thick, dark brown folder. My feet instantly froze. My arms, wrapped around Rex’s waist, slowly loosened as I imagined the contents of that brown folder were the divorce papers I’d feared the most all along.The lawyer nodded slowly, then turned back toward the car. I let out a short breath, feeling a sliver of hope creep back in among the roar of fear in my chest.Rex turned around slowly. He stood facing me directly, looking into my eyes, which were still wet with tears.“Before I sign anything in that folder, I just want to hear one honest answer from you, Emma,” Rex said in a voice that was extremely calm yet demanding.My fingers clenched tightly around the fabric of his shirt at his chest. “Rex… that document…”Rex wiped the r

A light drizzle moistened the cold cemetery ground. Under the shade of a frangipani tree dripping with the last of the rain, I stood frozen, staring at the man in front of me. Rex looked exactly the same as ever. He looked as cool as ever in a neat shirt that hugged his sturdy frame. Just seeing him standing there filled my chest with an incredible sense of relief, but as he stepped closer, a sudden wave of anxiety washed over me.Rex’s footsteps sounded closer and closer on the wet ground. Imagining the worst-case scenario I might have to face made me reflexively shut my eyes tight. I clenched my fingers in front of my chest.“Rex, I know I was wrong! I’ve made so many mistakes with you!” I whispered with a heavily trembling voice, holding my breath so my tears wouldn’t break through.He stood still, so close that I could feel the warmth of his body. Yet, no shouts or harsh words came from his lips.I mustered the courage to slowly open my eyes, meeting Rex’s eagle-like gaze, which r

"Where are you taking me? To a dump that’s more livable than that house?"I rested my forehead against the car window, which felt as cold as ice. Outside, the Australian morning fog crept slowly, shrouding the trees and streets in a gloomy gray. Rex didn’t answer; his strong fingers remained steady

"Do you think I'm some cheap woman you can just take home without even touching me?"My voice sounded strange to my own ears. Hoarse, demanding, and a little slurred from the red wine still swirling in my head. Inside this luxury car, the silence felt so thick, leaving only the scent of the expensi

"Do you still have this number, or am I just too stupid for only realizing it now?"I whispered to my own reflection in the fogged-up bathroom mirror. Behind the glass stall, the sound of the shower masking the tremor in my shattered voice. I sat on the cold porcelain floor, hugging my knees while

"Alex, does the color of this dress still leave you spellbound?" I twirled in front of the large mirror that reflected my own image. This maroon silk felt so soft against my skin, hugging my curves perfectly. Outside, the Australian snow has begun to fall, wrapping the tree branches in a cold whit
