After Betrayal, I Married a Billionaire Chapter 50
"All right, Claudia, just tell me what you really want. Don’t hurt him!"The morning breeze felt chilly in the dusty, empty courtyard. Rex’s gaze radiated a profound sense of resignation as he tried to save me. He set aside all his pride as a powerful man who usually dominated everything. Trapped in Claudia’s cold grip, I shook my head repeatedly, pleading with my eyes for Rex not to give in to this woman’s insane demands. Yet my husband took a few steps forward, palms open, trying to ease the tension.Claudia tightened her grip on my jaw until it turned red. Then she screamed in a shrill, hoarse voice right next to my ear."Shut up, Emma! You’ve already taken everything of value from my life! Now, I just want to take back all the assets that should have been mine from the beginning!”Rex raised his hands higher, trying to calm the tense atmosphere with the gentlest voice possible. "Calm down, Claudia. I’m here to listen to you. Don’t do anything reckless that could hurt you. What do

"Emma, I feel like this is all just a dirty trick to lure us out. Do you want to get back at them elegantly, or not?"The car’s engine was running smoothly in the shade of a tall, leafy tree. Rex’s gaze shifted between the rearview mirror and my face, offering me a glimmer of hope and absolute protection. I nodded slowly, my lips trembling slightly as I realized the truth that had just slipped from my husband’s lips."Laura must be behind all this, working with your ex-wife. Those two will surely do terrible things to us if we stay silent," I said softly.Just as Rex was about to step on the gas pedal to turn the car around and leave the deserted courtyard, a woman’s silhouette suddenly darted out from behind an empty building. The window next to my seat was pounded on very roughly and urgently from the outside. Laura stood there with her hair in disarray, pleading with a face that looked so pitiful through the clear glass of the car.“Help me, Emma! Please open the door! My life is t

"Why did you suddenly stop the car, Rex? The road is completely deserted!"The silence inside the luxury car's cabin felt thick and oppressive after the jolt caused by the sudden braking. The cool air from the air conditioner could not dampen the heat radiating from Rex’s erratic, labored breathing. The digital clock on the dashboard kept ticking, underscoring the anxiety raging in my chest. I asked in a stern, demanding tone, trying to hide my own panic behind a false sense of firmness.Rex gripped the steering wheel so tightly that the knuckles on his fingers turned white. His voice sounded hoarse when he broke the silence. “You still have the nerve to ask why, Emma? After all the parting curses you spewed so easily just now?”I turned my face toward the side window, unwilling to meet my husband’s eagle-like eyes, which were gazing at me with pain. "I'm in a terrible hurry to ensure Laura's safety! Get this car moving again right now!"Rex didn’t obey my harsh command. Instead, he u

"Go to sleep, Emma. You really need to rest your mind tonight."Rex set the last spoon down in the bowl extremely slowly, as if he didn’t want to disturb the night's silence, which suddenly felt eerie. I was left speechless and frozen on the cold, marble mattress. My heart was torn by bitter disappointment as I realized that my husband’s silence was a veiled answer that I was nothing more than a fulfillment of the terms of our marriage contract.Morning sunlight streamed through the gaps in the luxurious silk curtains as I awoke with heavy eyelids. A line of senior servants stood politely at the ready near the dressing table, waiting to help me get ready. I walked slowly toward the bathroom to freshen up, trying to shake off the tightness in my chest that had lingered since the night before. I picked up my phone, furrowing my brow. Then, a woman’s voice came through the line, shaking terribly."Emma, help me! Help me right now! I’m begging you!”I gripped the edge of my vanity table

"Rex, you've really gone too far! I’ll never give you another chance with Isla if you act so rudely in front of me again!”Claudia’s voice rose from the doorway. She trembled violently, holding back her anger, which clashed with the coldness in Rex’s gaze. The dim, golden glow of the nightlight cast a shadow of Rex’s figure. He stood firmly rooted in place, completely undaunted by Claudia’s threats. The master bedroom was suddenly filled with a thick aura of hostility as Claudia tried to use her custody of Isla as her last line of defense against Rex’s dominance.Rex reached into the pocket of his dress pants and flashed a dismissive smile, not showing any fear.“Is the pile of money you’ve been demanding from me all this time still not enough, Claudia? Just tell me the exact amount right now! I’ll transfer it to your personal account this very second!”The argument between the two of them grew increasingly heated. A barrage of words filled every corner of the room, each one seeking t

"What's the matter, Emma? What I said was completely true and hit the nail on the head, didn’t it?"Claudia took a step forward and leaned toward me, smiling triumphantly and cynically. The golden glow of the bedroom lights reflected off her increasingly tense face as she tried desperately to break my spirit. I lay on the bed, feeling her gaze on me. She seemed so confident in her accusations, thinking that I would either break down in hysterical tears or be terrified that our contractual marriage had been disrupted by her words.I loosened my grip on the marble-patterned silk blanket and exhaled slowly and steadily. My face regained its calm without any hint of panic in my eyes. I offered a faint smile and reached out to take the wrist of the woman standing before me."Come here. Sit down here with me on the edge of the bed. Stay calm," I said in an incredibly soft yet firm voice.Claudia flinched slightly at my calm demeanor. However, she couldn’t resist as I gently pulled her towar

Rex slowly opened his eyes and looked at me with a faint, incredibly sweet smile. "Good morning, my honey."I held my throbbing head and stared at him accusingly. "What the hell is this, Rex? How did you end up sleeping with me in this bed last night? Didn’t you pay a bunch of sexy women in the bal

"Have a good time at your party, Rex. I won’t bother you anymore.”Suddenly, the music in the ballroom shifted to a slow jazz melody that felt intimate. The light from the chandelier, which had been bright and dazzling, dimmed slowly, casting a gloom that was hard on my eyes. Right in front of me,

"Is this the best way you can think of to punish my audacity, Rex?"The crystal chandelier, which had once seemed warm and soothing, now glared in my eyes. I walked slowly across the vast red carpet. My silk satin gown clung to my body and rustled softly as it swept across the silent marble floor.

"Let me go, Rex! Where are you taking me with that furious look on your face?"Rex’s footsteps echoed heavily through the silent mansion's marble hallway. His muscular arms held me completely in their grip, hard as steel. The handsome face of the billionaire, who usually appeared calm and in contro
