(Amara)

“Oh, you mean Isha?” Olivia says as we sit at one of the cafeteria tables.

It’s lunch time. Ever since Isha left this morning, Rayner hasn’t been himself. He canceled two meetings and has barely stepped out of his office. The blinds stayed half-drawn all afternoon.

He couldn’t have possibly come to work just to have himself locked up in his office right?

And knowing he’s only hurt because of me, I couldn’t help asking around. At least to also understand the relationship between Isha and

  • Betrayed In Love: Redeemed By The Billionaire CEO   Chapter 209 The empty space

    (Amara)I’m seated on the hospital bed, staring into nothing.The voices around me drift in and out like distant echoes, but none of them truly reach me.It’s as if I’m here…Yet I’m not.My body occupies this room, but my mind doesn’t.“Amara.”Mom calls my name.I hear her.I just can’t bring myself to answer.I don’t even have the strength to lift my head.Everything inside me feels unbearably heavy.Heavy with grief.Heavy with guilt.Heavy with the crushing pain of losing another child.Maybe this is my fate.Maybe I was never meant to become a mother.Otherwise…Why does this keep happening to me?My eyes sting.Five times.I’ve had five chances to hold my own child.Five tiny lives growing inside me.Five little heartbeats that filled me with hope.And every single time…Before I could ever hold them in my arms…I lost them.What kind of cruel fate keeps taking them away from me?A tear slips down my cheek.“I can’t believe Grace would do something like this to Amara.”Maya’s v

    (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

    (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

    (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

    (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

    (Amara)Maya and I are still laughing when it happens.Dinner plates sit pushed to the side, forgotten. The small round table between us is cluttered with empty bowls, napkins, and the half-finished bottle of soda we swore we wouldn’t open but did anyway. The room smells faintly of fried plantain a

    (Amara)“Tell me the truth, Amara. What’s going on? What’s your relationship with that man from the mall?”Maya’s voice rings through the room, sharp and relentless.I move deeper into the room before I even realize it, anger rising too fast.“I don’t have any relationship with him. And neither wil

    (Amara)Argh.A soft groan slips from my lips as my phone alarm beeps insistently. It’s crazy how, even now, I still haven’t learned how to ignore this damn thing. Half-asleep, I stretch a hand toward the bedside table to shut it off like I always do, but my fingers meet nothing.I frown.Slowly, m

    (Amara)I scoff and turn back to my drink, deliberately ignoring his greeting. I’m not in the mood to talk. Not to anyone. Especially not to someone who looks like he wants to be friendly.I hear him sigh, unbothered by my coldness.“You seem to be alone. Mind if I join you?”The words hit somethin
