I could feel Stefano's rapid breathing because our bodies were against each other. I was looking at him, but his angry eyes were staring at the group of women who tried to throw a chair at me. Even from the way he was holding my waist, I could feel his anger from there as if at any time, he would just retaliate and to prevent that from happening, I placed my hands on his chest, which helped me get his attention.

Our eyes immediately met, and even though my heart was still beating very fast because of what had happened, I still managed to speak.

"W-What are you doing here?" I asked nervously in a low voice.

It's like he's reading something in my eyes that's why a few seconds passed first before he spoke.

"We have a party to go to tonight. I was planning to tell you myself at the penthouse, but when I woke up, you had already left and I've been waiting for you for a while now, but you're not coming home. I tried to contact you on your social media accounts, but you didn't reply because

  • Contract Marriage with the Heartless Billionaire   Chapter 60: Suspicious

    "Ahm, hi! I'm Shantelle! I was just wondering if you know where Doctor Stefano Vandelbirt is right now?" I shyly asked the female nurse who just passed by right after I went out of Stefano's office.She suddenly panicked when she heard my voice, and because she was so panicked, she bowed in front of me several times first before she decided to speak."I-I'm so sorry, Mrs. Vandelbirt, but I haven't seen Doctor Stefano in a while. When I see him, I'll just tell him that you're looking for him and waiting for him."I felt even more embarrassed because of what she said. It seems like I'll be bothering her with her work and that's what I don't want to happen, that's why after I told her that she didn't need to do that anymore, I said goodbye to her.Instead of going around the entire hospital looking for Stefano, I just chose to just go back into Stefano's office and wait there again.I might even bother the employees if I ask every one of them I meet in the hallway where Stefano is.I was

  • Contract Marriage with the Heartless Billionaire   Chapter 59: Seduce

    "Can I ride with you, guys? The other cars are already packed with stuff, and your car is the only one that doesn't, that's why I decided to go with you! Is that okay with both of you?" Shania suddenly asked cheerfully while he looked back and forth between Stefano and me.I bit my lower lip hard before I glanced at Stefano next to me, who was already looking at me. It seems like he was just looking at me before Shania spoke, judging by the annoyance I see on Shanias face now.We're heading right now to a private beach owned by Stefano's family. Stefano and I were about to get into the car when Shania suddenly stopped us. I thought that she would just greet us, but I was wrong.Stefano seemed to have no intention of speaking and looking at Shania, that's why I returned my eyes to her.Shania was staring at me with hopeful eyes, which made it even harder for me to decide, but because I didn't want some chaos later just because I didn't agree to what she wanted, even though I wasn't sur

  • Contract Marriage with the Heartless Billionaire   Chapter 58: Giving away

    I suddenly woke up when I heard people screaming. I immediately touched my head because I felt pain from there, and when I touched a soft cloth that I knew was a bandage, I suddenly remembered the last thing that happened to me before I lost consciousness.It felt like my sleepiness disappeared when I remembered everything that happened earlier.Instead of checking the whole surroundings, I just chose to stare at the ceiling while I was thinking about my phone.I'm sure that Shania has reformatted it already and I'm also sure that because of what happened earlier, it's possible that she threw away my sim card, which is making me stressed right now besides about how I'm going to explain that to Stefano once he asked me.With so many thoughts running through my mind, I didn't realize that Stefano was just on the side of the bed where I was lying.If I hadn't felt him caress my hair, I wouldn't have been able to come back to my senses and wouldn't have been able to glance in his directio

  • Contract Marriage with the Heartless Billionaire   Chapter 57: Sister

    I just stood quietly on the sidelines as I watched mommy, daddy, and my two siblings hug each other.Even though I've watched them be this sweet to each other a million times already, I still can't help but feel hurt and feel jealous.When I felt like I was going to cry already, I immediately stopped myself because I didn't want to make a scene and disturb their bonding.I stood there for a few hours leaning against the wall while I continued to watch them, hoping that even for a moment, they would glance in my direction and pay attention to me, but it never happened.They are happily chatting and laughing with each other as if the four of them are the only ones here right now.I only thought about sitting down when my legs started hurting. I can barely breathe properly so I can just sit quietly so as not to make any noise and so as not to disturb them.Stefano is not here today because he is on duty. Honestly, Stefano really didn't want to go to work so he could join me in watching o

  • Contract Marriage with the Heartless Billionaire   Chapter 56: Favorites

    Stefano immediately noticed my sudden stop, so he glanced in my direction. I was immediately overcome with panic, that's why I couldn't speak properly when I saw Stefano's questioning eyes.All sorts of things are starting to come to my mind that are making me overthink, especially since the one that I spoke to at Mommy's house, which is one of our maids, only told me very small details about what happened to Mommy, and I can't blame her for that because she panicked on the other end, too. You really can't think straight in situations like this, but you have to fight that because it won't help you think clearly, just like what's happening to me right now.I tried to open my mouth to speak, but no words came out. It was a good thing that I heard my phone ringing and I received a text message on my phone from the maid I spoke to earlier, saying that they brought mommy to the hospital where we are right now so I didn't have to speak to explain to Stefano what was happening and why I was

  • Contract Marriage with the Heartless Billionaire   Chapter 55: Rushed

    "Stefano, come on. Let's just go back to your office. This can still be resolved through good conversation," I said as I stopped him when he looked like he was already ready to watch the CCTV footage.Earlier, when he didn't know yet the full details of the incident, he was so angry already, and right now that he will be going to see the whole thing, I'm sure that he will be even more furious, that's why I'm so eager to just invite him back into his office rather than us staying here which will just bring no good.Stefano immediately glanced at me right after I said those words. "I'm so sorry, baby, but when it comes to you, that's a different story, that's why no matter what happens, I will never let this pass. I will never allow anyone to disrespect you, especially in my territory, because I wouldn't hesitate to ruin their lives," he said one thing after another and I could tell from his voice that he was struggling from something and I know the reason why.I know that he wants to o
