“Good day, Sir Rayner,” I say the moment he walks in.

But another voice follows him.

Soft. Feminine. Familiar.

My eyes lift and there she is. The same lady from yesterday. The one who left the office with her arms locked in his.

I freeze.

She walks in behind him, talking rapidly, her words tumbling over each other. He doesn’t respond. He barely even looks at her.

“I need the report from yesterday,” he says to me.

I blink. “Ye… yes.” My voice almost fails me, but I nod quickly and turn t

  • Betrayed In Love: Redeemed By The Billionaire CEO   Chapter 208 Cornered

    (Stella)I grab my phone from the table, my eyes narrowing at the name flashing across the screen.Bar Man.My stomach drops.Why the hell is he calling me?I already warned him never to call unless I reached out first.So why now?I let out a slow breath.Fine.I’ll hear him out.I swipe to answer and raise the phone to my ear.“You…”“Ma’am… please save me.”His voice comes out low and strained. Every word trembles with panic.My fingers tighten around the phone.“Wha… what are you saying?” I stammer. “Save you from what? How?”“He found me.”My heartbeat stutters.“Who found you?”“The man whose drink I spiked on your orders, ma’am.”His words hit like a punch.“He sent his men after me. They tracked me down.”“What?”My voice comes out as nothing more than a whisper.“Yes.” He drags out the word, breathing heavily. “You have to save me before they catch me. You know what’ll happen if they do.”His voice hardens.“You won’t be safe either.”The threat lands exactly where it’s meant

  • Betrayed In Love: Redeemed By The Billionaire CEO   Chapter 207 The poisoned trust

    (Amara)I’m quietly walking down the stairs when my mother’s words drift back into my mind.“It’s nothing really, dear. Just an old friend who went missing.”She’d said it so casually.Too casually.Now that I think about it… why does it feel like a lie?Not just any lie.One she’d rehearsed long before that moment ever came.“Trust me, Amara. She’s not someone you should be bothering yourself about.”I remember the way she’d held my wrist as she said those words. Her gaze had been steady. Calm.But Father hadn’t looked calm.Not even once.I can still picture the faint irritation on his face, as though he wanted to be anywhere else except standing there listening to her.Was I imagining it?Or was I simply reading too much into everything?A quiet sigh slips from my lips.Maybe I’m overthinking it…I finally reach the bottom of the stairs and head toward the dining room when a familiar voice cuts through my thoughts.“So just because you’re not going to the office today, you’ve decid

  • Betrayed In Love: Redeemed By The Billionaire CEO   Chapter 206 The name Valerie

    (Amara)“We’ll call it a wrap for today.”The director’s voice rings through the room. Around me, everyone nods and begins packing up their equipment.Mina rushes over, a flicker of worry on her face.“What happened? I thought there was supposed to be a part where the model showcases our product by actually using it.”“There was,” she replied. “But there’s been a slight delay.”“Delay?”“The vehicle transporting the products broke down on the road. It won’t make it here today, so we’ll have to reschedule that part of the shoot.”“I see.”A quiet sigh escapes me.“Then you and your team can fix another date and let everyone know.”“Yes, ma’am.” She nods.I turn to Martha.“Let’s go. We need to head to the hospital. Maya’s being discharged today.”For the briefest second, something flashes across her face.Worry.No… maybe concern.Before I can make sense of it, it’s gone. She quickly forces a small smile and nods.“Sure. Let’s go.”I’ve barely taken two steps when someone calls my name

  • Betrayed In Love: Redeemed By The Billionaire CEO   Chapter 205 A loveless marriage

    (Rayner)“Mom!”My voice tears through the room as I stride toward her.She sits there with one leg crossed over the other, calmly sipping tea as though she hadn’t just done something completely unforgivable.I stop right in front of her, glaring down at her.“How could you go around handing out invitations to a wedding I never even consented to?”“You don’t need to consent to a wedding before having one, dear.” She smiles lightly over the rim of her cup. “All you have to do is show up. I’ll handle everything else.”“Mom!”The word rips out of me in a growl. I can actually feel the veins straining against my neck.Slowly, she sets her teacup on the table before lifting her gaze to mine.“Rayner.” She sighs. “You should be grateful you have a mother who’s willing to go through all this just to keep her family together. Do you think every mother would?”“I’d rather you be one of those mothers who minds her own business instead of forcing your decisions on me.”She rises to her feet.“My

  • Betrayed In Love: Redeemed By The Billionaire CEO   Chapter 204 Deleted truths

    (Amara)“I’m here to personally give you the invite to Rayner and Stella’s wedding.”Helena’s voice keeps replaying in my head as I sit alone in my office.Could my mother really be right this time?Then my mother’s voice follows.“I’m sorry, Amara, but you shouldn’t believe Rayner. There’s nothing he can do anymore.”A slow breath leaves my lungs as I rake a hand through my hair. The ache behind my eyes only deepens.“Amara.”Martha’s voice pulls me back to the present.“Is everything alright?”I lift my head.For a second, I’d completely forgotten she was standing in my office.I press my lips into a thin line.“Yes, Martha. Everything’s fine.” I force a small smile. “I was just thinking about the campaign shoot. How far along are we?”“Almost ready.”She places a document on my desk.“These are the scripts for the campaign. I actually came to let you know we’ll be leaving soon. I thought you’d want to be there.”“Of course.”I open the folder.My eyes scan each page carefully, movi

  • Betrayed In Love: Redeemed By The Billionaire CEO   Chapter 203 The sacrifice

    (Amara)“Wha… what are you saying, dear?” My mother’s fingers wrap around my hand, gentle yet trembling. Disbelief floods her eyes. “You’re joking, right? You don’t mean what you just said.”“Joking?” I repeat, staring at her. “How can I joke about something like this?” I pull my hand away and rake my fingers through my hair before tilting my head to one side. “It’s the truth, Mom. I’m pregnant, and the father of my child is Rayner. Rayner Sinclair.”The color drains from her face.A low groan slips from her lips as her hand flies to the back of her neck.Then her knees give out.“Mom!”I lunge toward her, but Nathan gets there first, catching her before she hits the floor.“Nathan… she…” Her trembling finger lifts toward me. Tears blur her eyes as she struggles to breathe through the shock. Nathan snaps to me. “How could you do this, Amara? How could you let something like this happen?”I clamp my teeth together so hard my jaw aches.“She doesn’t care about Mom’s feelings.” Julian’

    (Felix)I am halfway to the car park when I hear my name.“Felix.”I stop.For a second, I don’t turn. Then I lift my gaze slowly.Nathan.My fingers curl slightly at my sides, my chest tightening in a way I don’t expect. Not fear. I have nothing to fear. He doesn’t even know anything. He can’t po

    (Amara)“Why didn’t you tell me?”The words leave me the second I step into Rayner’s office.Rita’s and Olivia’s reactions replay in my head. The smiles. The excitement. The congratulations.Nothing like what I expected.Rayner doesn’t answer.He just stands there, his back to me, staring out the w

    (Felix)“What were you doing at The Sinclair Group?”My voice cuts through the living room, sharp and controlled. Selina doesn’t even glance at me. She throws her legs over the table, as if I’m background noise.“Come on, Felix,” she says lightly. “It’s not my fault you went ahead and announced you
