She got out of bed in annoyance, moving towards the living room with an angry look etched on her face. Her anger increased when she threw the door open, only to see Edward standing in front of her.

She slammed the door against him, but he was quick to catch it, his hand

  • Claimed By The Billionaires Contract    Chapter Forty Three: The Mysterious Amulet

    It was a Friday afternoon when Emily sat in the back of a cab heading toward her apartment in Texas. She had arrived from the airport that morning to pack her belongings and Ethan’s before leaving the city.After Edward’s confession, she had been given some space to think. She had spent those days thinking about her life, especially Benjamin.The truth was painful. She had been unfair.Benjamin had loved her, accepted Ethan, and given her the kind of peace she had once believed she would never find. Yet she had dragged him into a battle he never asked for. Edward was Ethan’s father, and whether she liked it or not, he would remain in their lives.She could not keep asking Benjamin to fight her battles. If she were in his position, she knew she would have walked away too.So, she had made a decision to let Benjamin go.It hurt more than she wanted to admit, but she believed it was the only way to give him the chance to find the happiness he deserved.As for Ethan, she had decided to st

  • Claimed By The Billionaires Contract    Chapter Forty Two: When Sorry Isn't Enough

    It had been days since Edward informed Emily of his involvement in her transfer to Carter Textiles Ltd. and his intentions of keeping her away from Benjamin. His decision had been made out of pure jealousy after realizing the lengths Emily was willing to go to save her relationship with the man. Despite being the cause of their fight, he couldn't bear the thought of them reconciling, not after hearing the names Benjamin had called her in anger. Those insults had fueled his hatred for the man.At first, Edward convinced himself it was because he cared about her. But deep down, he knew it was because Emily's heart was with another man.The realization tore him apart.Emily belonged with him. She was his wife, the mother of his child, and he couldn't accept anyone taking his place in her heart.These possessive thoughts unsettled him, but he couldn't stop them. Whenever it came to Emily, his sense of reasoning abandoned him. Every decision he made was driven by the desperate need to keep

    Emily's brows knitted together.“Indeed, I was right; you do have something to do with it.”She walked to his desk and dropped her phone in front of him.“I deserve an explanation.”Edward picked up the phone and calmly read through the email before handing the phone back to her.A satisfied smile tugged at his lips.“Congratulations, baby.”Emily stared at him in disbelief.“Don't call me that,” she snapped. “What is this?”“It means exactly what it says,” Edward answered. “Welcome to Carter Textiles Ltd.”Emily folded her arms.“No. It doesn't make any sense. My company has nothing to do with Carter Textiles Ltd. I work as an Executive manager, and suddenly I'm being transferred to become someone's personal assistant? Tell me this is some mistake.”Edward remained relaxed.“It's not.”Emily's jaw tightened.“Then explain.”He leaned back in his chair.“You've been away from work for over a week. A lot can happen in that period.”“That still doesn't answer my question.”Edward sighed

    Emily nodded.A small smile appeared on her lips, but it never reached her eyes.Mitchell noticed."And... you're back together?" she finally asked, unable to hold the question in any longer.Emily shook her head."It's complicated."Mitchell studied her for a moment before pulling her into another hug."You don't have to tell me anything if you're not ready."Emily hugged her back."Thank you."She pulled away with a faint smile."So tell me, how have you been? What have you been up to all these years? And what have I missed?" Emily asked, changing the topic.Because she wasn't ready to reopen old wounds. If she started talking about everything that had happened over the last five years, she knew she'd break down. There were too many painful memories she wasn't prepared to share.Mitchell grinned."Oh... you've missed plenty."She threw a playful glance at her mother before grabbing Emily's hand."Come on. Let's talk somewhere before Mom starts snooping."Emily smiled."Okay."For th

    It was late when Edward emerged from his office, intending to retire to bed, but he was a bit astonished to see Emily pacing around the living room with her phone pressed to her ear. He stood by his office door, watching her move back and forth, completely unaware of his presence.After several minutes, she pulled the phone away from her ear and slumped onto one of the couches, burying her face in her arms.Edward didn't doubt she was in this state because of that wretched bastard she had chosen to date, and it annoyed him that the so-called boyfriend was making her this restless.It'll be over soon, he told himself before pushing away from the doorway and strolling toward her.“Cupcake.”He placed a hand on her shoulder, and she raised her head, her red-rimmed eyes meeting his.A mix of annoyance and envy surged through him. She had been crying over Benjamin.“Come on, let's go to bed. It's late.”Emily shook her head and moved away from his touch.Edward's heart squeezed painfully f

    Emily emerged from the sofa with confusion etched on her face, wondering who the visitor might be, especially when she had no relation in California.Or was it her father? How did he find out she was back?She walked to the door, ignoring Edward's gaze. As she got to the door, her eyes bulged, her mouth dropped open, and her steps faltered.It was Benjamin.He had a look of betrayal and hurt etched on his face. His gaze roamed her entire being, his jaw clenching and palms balling into fists.Emily was dressed in an oversized T-shirt.It was obvious that it belonged to Edward.“Wow…” he exclaimed. “So this is your aunt's house?” he asked in the strongest voice he could manage.Emily's explanations weren't clear, and from the way she stuttered while trying to convince him, it was obvious she wasn't honest, coupled with how she had made excuses anytime he wanted to speak to her son over the phone.It just didn't add up.Hence, he decided to do some digging by finding Edward's residential

    A humorless laugh erupted from Edward's lips as he stared at her in wonder. Wasn't she full of surprises? Does she think she could use the child as a leverage to get back into his life? Honestly, he'd loved that little girl dearly, but the fact that he had abandoned his own blood for years, just

    Emily woke up the next morning feeling like she hadn’t slept at all. The weight of Ethan’s words still clung to her, heavy and unsettling. Even as she got ready for work, as she brushed her hair and slipped into her outfit, her mind kept replaying his innocent voice. I like my daddy more. She shu

    “Is everything alright?” Benjamin asked. “Ye..yeah,” she quickly replied, forcing a smile, as she picked up her phone and slipped it back into her bag. Emily's heart wouldn't stop racing. The words kept echoing in her head. “I'm coming for you both.” Who is coming for them? Why were they co

    “Sign the papers,” Emily’s dad screamed, forcing the document into her hand. She stared at the contract papers, which stated a seven-year owner-servant contract.“I’m not a commodity, Dad,” Emily spat out in rage.“Just sign the papers, it's no big deal,” he said nonchalantly. Emily stared at her
