Chapter 140 A Little Paradise

Author: Day Torres
In case anyone has doubts, it's worth saying that nothing in the world moves faster than the tongue of a wounded woman. Deep down, Alexandra even felt a bit sorry for Claudia. As the saying goes: Don't feel proud if a man leaves his wife for you; it's just God showing you a preview of what awaits you with him.

Claudia confessed to the police things that not even Alexandra and Scott had imagined. She told them everything about Albert's crimes—his cruel, manipulative ways, his sadistic tendencies, his shady business deals, and even some of his illegal activities.

As her story unfolded, the police realized Albert wasn't just bad—he was truly evil and dangerous. They were shocked that he had been able to hide that side of himself for so many years.

She had kept a lot of evidence stored away, evidence Patrick didn't hesitate for a second to send his team to collect in America. It seemed that, deep down, Claudia had always known Albert would end up hurting and betraying her.

  • Bride of the Billionaire Beast   Chapter 5 A Grave Mistake

    [One week earlier] Maxine sat on the bed in her cell, elbows resting on her knees, thinking for the thousandth time about everything that had happened. She'd been in prison for six months, and none of the few comrades she had left from the army had come to see her. So she was surprised when she was told she had a visitor. "Lieutenant Johnson. May I have a moment?" General Morrison asked. She just lifted her eyes to see him—and the man who accompanied him. "Thanks to you, time is the one thing I've got plenty of," she replied, stepping up to the bars. "Good, because I came to offer you a deal." "I'm not in the mood for deals, thanks," Maxine said, turning to sit back down on the bed. "Look, Lieutenant, I'm very sorry for everything that's happened…" "Oh really? And which part exactly hurts you? The fact that you sentenced me knowing I was innocent, or the part where Alcott might slaughter a few more teams because of his incompetence?" Morrison sighed and sat down on a sm

  • Bride of the Billionaire Beast   Chapter 4 An Excellent Performance

    "Excuse me…? Are you saying… marry her?!" "Yes," said a woman holding a notepad. "If you marry her, we can spin all of this around and maybe even come out ahead." "You can't be serious!" Liam snapped. "Marry her?" "Stop playing dumb! Yes, marry her," his father cut in firmly. "Fix this, Liam. Or our company won't be the only thing on the line." "And if I refuse?" "Then," the woman with the notepad said, "in a few months we'll have to declare the company bankrupt." Liam took a step back, as if her words had punched him in the gut. This was his company, his work—the only thing he knew how to do. At that moment, it was all he had. "But… but… what if I agree?" he finally asked. "What happens then?" "Basically," the woman said with a grin stretching from ear to ear, "you'll marry Sister Maxine—Miss Maxine—and once she's ready to face the world, we'll hold a press conference to announce the wedding and everything else." The idea of being tied to that woman, even for a short

  • Bride of the Billionaire Beast   Chapter 3 A Dangerous Solution

    "A nun?! You're a nuuuuun?!" he shouted, and she just shrugged with an oops expression that left him frozen. "Crisis of faith?" she murmured, as if that could pass for an apology. And from that moment on, the world turned very dark for Liam Harrington. Apparently, one of the cleaning staff had seen Liam and the woman dressed as a nun enter the room, and decided it would make a great story for the press. The journalists ran the photos, and it blew up into a massive scandal. Liam wanted to believe it was nothing more than a storm in a teacup. What mattered was that he and that girl had shared an unforgettable night together—and that was something no one could take away from them… But reality was very different. "The company's stock is tanking," his father muttered four days later. "Since your birthday, it's been in free fall. At this rate, we won't last two months." Liam raked his hands through his hair, pacing his office. "For God's sake, it was just a fling! It's not that

  • Bride of the Billionaire Beast   Chapter 2 A Bad Decision

    Liam Harrington had just turned thirty-two, and to those who knew him, he was the most extreme man in the world. On one hand, he worked fourteen hours a day without pause, but once he left the office, he dove into parties and nightclubs with the same intensity. No assistant could keep up with his pace… nor could any woman, since Liam wasn't interested in relationships—only in one-night stands. Casual, ultra-casual. So casual he didn't even bother asking the girls for their names. "This is what I call a party!" shouted Alex, his best friend. Liam had organized a spectacular birthday bash in one of his family's hotels. A costume party, so the girls could let their hair down and misbehave without worrying about staining their fine reputations. The alcohol was flowing, and maybe something stronger too, while the gifts piled up in one of the rooms. "I came to bring mine," said a voice behind him, and Liam turned around, excited. "Dad! You came!" he exclaimed, hugging him. "But

  • Bride of the Billionaire Beast   STORY TWO: Bodyguard Wife for the Millionaire

When his birthday party leads him to "sin" with the least appropriate girl, he'll find himself tangled in a web of lies that includes a wedding, an undercover bodyguard, and a love full of danger and threats. What will happen when he discovers his wife's true secrets? What happens when love is overshadowed by lies? Will they be able to forgive each other, or will it spark a war of love and hate? Chapter 1 Condemned Maxine stood in the courtroom of the military tribunal as the ethics committee read out each of her charges. Insubordination, sedition, desertion, and assaulting a superior officer. In front of her sat General Morrison, presiding over the court, and behind her stood Colonel Alcott with his pack of sycophantic soldiers. "Lieutenant Maxine Johnson. How do

  • Bride of the Billionaire Beast   Chapter 151 Epilogue

    Howard, his wife, and their little boy rushed down from the private jet, and a luxury SUV drove them straight to the hospital. The doctor came in like a madman, changing clothes, washing his hands, listening to Scott's frantic protests—and the moment he finally stepped into the delivery room, he came right back out two seconds later and smacked Scott on the back of the neck. "She hasn't even had a contraction yet, her water just broke!" he shouted, while his wife Amanda burst out laughing at the nervous pout on Scott's face. "Well, I still got scared!" Scott shot back. "It'll be hours before the baby is actually born," Howard's wife said. "So, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go say hi to the mom and laugh at you two for a bit." Amanda went in to meet Alexandra, and the two women hit it off instantly. Later, Sebastian took her and her son Dylan back to the house so they could stay with Gerard and Marina while Alexandra gave birth. Luckily, the kids clicked right away too—they
