(Rayner)

The day passes in a blur.

One meeting bleeds into another, voices overlapping, numbers thrown around, decisions made. I respond where needed, nod when expected, speak when required.

But none of it stays.

Because every time I pause, even for a second, my mind drifts.

To her desk.

Empty.

I step into the office and stop.

My eyes move there instantly.

Still empty.

It’s been like this since yesterday. And no matter how much I try to ignore it, to act like it doesn’t matter, I keep looking.

  • Betrayed In Love: Redeemed By The Billionaire CEO   Chapter 183 The message

    (Amara)I wake with a heavy weight pressing against my chest.Last night’s news. The chaos. The whispers. The murmurs.Everything clings to me like a shadow I can’t escape.I know I should be stronger than this. I should be able to face whatever comes next.But today… everything feels unbearably overwhelming.My hand reaches for the bottle of pain relief medication on the bedside table.For a long moment, I simply stare at it.The cool plastic rests against my palm while my thumb slowly brushes over the cap.Maybe I should just take them. Maybe they’ll dull this ache inside me. Maybe they’ll quiet my thoughts.I begin twisting the cap open.Then I stop.A hollow laugh almost escapes me.This isn’t something a couple of tablets can fix.The pain sitting inside my chest is far deeper than—A tired sigh slips from my lips as my mother’s voice echoes through my mind.“You don’t need to come in today. Just take the day off.”My shoulders sag.Slowly, I finish opening the bottle.Who cares?

  • Betrayed In Love: Redeemed By The Billionaire CEO   Chapter 182 Behind the article

    (Stella)I swirl the glass in my hand, waiting.The moment I feel his presence behind me, his arms wrapping around my waist in a hug, I gently pull away and turn with a small smile.He doesn’t see it coming.He doesn’t even realize my next move until my palm crashes against his cheek.His head snaps to the side.My anger explodes.“How dare you, Felix?” I hiss. “How dare you do something like this without consulting me first?”Silence. Heavy. Suffocating.But I don’t give him the chance to speak.I close the distance between us, fury boiling beneath my skin.“What were you thinking?” I demand. “If everyone finds out about Amara and Rayner now, how are we supposed to succeed with our plans? How are we ever going to separate them? Didn’t you think about that?”My breathing turns uneven.“Now, because of this stupid stunt, you’ve made everything harder.” I throw my hands up in frustration. “So what if you now own seventeen percent of their company? What good is that if you can’t take th

  • Betrayed In Love: Redeemed By The Billionaire CEO   Chapter 181 The wrong suspect

    (Amara)“Amara, you—”She takes one swift step toward me, her eyes locked on my trembling hand.“Maya…”Her name breaks apart as it leaves my lips.Slowly, I lift the phone between us. The photo is still displayed on the screen.My eyes burn.My throat aches.“What…” My voice shakes. “What is this?”Silence. Complete silence.Maya doesn’t answer.She doesn’t even look surprised.A bitter scoff tears out of me as my hand slowly drops.“I can’t believe this.” My chest rises sharply. “I don’t understand any of this. How can you…”I snap my gaze to hers.“Maya, I trusted you.”The words sting coming out.“And you did this to me?”“If you trusted me,” she says quietly, “you wouldn’t be standing here questioning me or thinking I’d ever do something like this.”“What?”My jaw falls open.“What are you saying?”She gently takes the phone from my hand and raises it between us.“This?” She lets out a small, almost offended laugh. “You really think I’m responsible for that article just because t

    (Amara)I barely make it three steps into the living room before Grace’s voice slices through the silence.“Wow. Look who finally decided to come home.”A slow clap follows.Every eye remains fixed on me.I stop walking.Grace rises from her seat, shaking her head.“The daughter who disappears all day while the rest of us deal with the consequences of her actions.”“Grace.” My mother’s warning comes immediately.But Grace only laughs.“What? I’m telling the truth.”She points directly at me.“Do you have any idea what people are saying about this family right now?”My jaw tightens.“Everywhere I go, people are talking about the Roosevelt family.”Her voice grows sharper.“About the scandal.”“The affair.”“The disgrace.”Each word lands like a slap.“And it’s all because of her.”The room falls silent.My mother’s face hardens.“Enough.”“No.” Grace shakes her head. “You shouldn’t have brought her back into this house in the first place.”The words sting more than I want them to.Beca

  • Betrayed In Love: Redeemed By The Billionaire CEO   Chapter 179 A good blur

    (Amara)I sit alone on the bench, staring out at the amusement park.Life moves on around me.Children race toward the rides, their excited screams carrying through the air. The Ferris wheel turns slowly in the distance while the roller coaster rushes past with another round of terrified laughter. Bright music blares from nearby speakers. Families queue for attractions. Friends stop to take photos beneath colorful lights and decorations.Yet somehow, all of it feels distant.Blurred.Like I’m watching the world through a sheet of glass.My fingers tighten around the edge of the bench as Felix’s voice continues to echo inside my head: You betrayed me first. So whatever you’re facing, you deserve it.My throat tightens.A tear slips down my cheek.Then another.I quickly wipe them away, but they keep coming.“Do you really think I was going to let you go that easily? Certainly not. Not after what you did to ruin my life.”I squeeze my eyes shut.His face flashes through my mind.The co

    (Rayner)“Rayner!”Stefan bursts into my office.“Rayner!”I don’t look up.My attention remains on the documents spread across my desk.“What is it?”I sign another page.“If it isn’t urgent, we can discuss it later. I’m busy.”“No.”The tension in his voice makes me pause.“You need to see this.”I slowly look up.Stefan immediately places his phone on my desk.I stare at him for a second before looking down.And my breath catches.The article.The photographs.Me.Amara.My chair scrapes against the floor as I stand.“What the hell is this?”Stefan runs a hand through his hair.“We’ve tried taking it down, but whoever uploaded it used a heavily protected site. Our team hasn’t been able to reach it.”My jaw tightens.“The article is spreading fast,” he continues. “And people are bringing up her old case with Selina.”A dangerous feeling settles inside me.“What?”Stefan hesitates.Then speaks.“They’re claiming Amara became jealous after Felix moved on with Selina.”My fists clench.

    (Amara)Selina’s voice cuts through the room slowly, uncertain.“A… Amara?”The sound of my name sends a sudden rush of heat climbing up my neck, spreading fast, suffocating. My fingers go numb. The tray slips from my hands before my mind can catch up.Glass crashes against the floor.The sound is

    (Amara)Morning comes, but it brings no relief.I wake with my chest already tight, the memory of last night pressing down on me like a weight I can’t push off. I don’t think there’s anything left that can truly hurt me after this. Not after knowing they spent the entire night together. In our bedr

    (Amara)The drive back from the clinic had been silent, each of us lost in thoughts we couldn’t share. And now, standing here, the weight of what the doctor had said presses on me.“No.”The word leaves my mouth before I can stop it.I turn to face them. Felix and Selina stand behind me, side by si

    (Amara)“Girl, a sick leave?” Maya’s voice rings through the phone.I’d called the office earlier to request one because right now, I can’t even face myself—let alone clients. “Don’t tell me you’re still floating on the moon from your time with Felix last night that you decided to cover it up with
