Despised By My Billionaire Husband CHAPTER 150
The next few minutes felt like hours.They brought Zane out of the car. They moved him onto a backboard and secured him with straps. Even from the top of the cliff, I could see how still he was – how his arms hung limp at his sides, how his head didn't move when they lifted him.Please be okay, I whispered, praying silently as they carried him out.The paramedics moved fast now that they had him on a flat surface. The woman cut his shirt open with a pair of trauma shears, while the man checked his pulse and shone a penlight into his eyes."Pupils are reactive," the man said. "He's got a pulse, but it's weak."The floodlight was bright enough that I could see everything. And that was when I noticed it.Zane's face was pale. The colour had drained out of him completely. His lips were almost white, and there was a blue tint around his mouth that made my stomach drop."Let's get him on the monitor," the woman said.They moved him onto the stretcher in the back of the ambulance and hooked
Despised By My Billionaire Husband CHAPTER 149: The Rescue
Lisa lowered herself to the ground, ignoring the dirt. She gently leaned into the car through the window she had just damaged."Ouch!" she gasped, as a sharp edge of glass cut into her skin."Take it easy," I said, and felt bad that I was only standing there watching.Lisa stretched her arm blindly, her fingers scraping against the dashboard before finding Zane's shoulder.I heard Zane cry out from inside."Did that help?" I called."No," he gasped. "It made it worse," he mumbled."I can't reach the buckle!" Lisa gasped, her shoulder wedged against the doorframe.She slid deeper inside, her fingers finally brushing the hard plastic near his hip. She pressed the release button with her thumb, but it wouldn't budge. The dashboard had crushed forward and pinned Zane at an angle, jamming the seatbelt tight."Stop," Zane groaned. Lisa pulling on the belt was making it worse. "It's stuck. Just leave it."Lisa pulled her arm back out, panting, and looked at her hand with blood streaking from
Despised By My Billionaire Husband CHAPTER 148: Fear Made Real
"This is it," I said, indicating for Lisa to stop. "We are here.""Here? I don't see your car," Lisa frowned, but parked the car at a corner, leaving the headlights on, which illuminated a twisted tear in the metal guardrail.We stepped out of the car, walking toward the blinking tracker. As we got to the edge of the broken barrier, my fear was made real.I looked down the steep, rocky cliff. My eyes scanned the snapped branches and crushed bushes, and to my bewilderment, a faint, eerie beam of light flickered – my car, the one Zane had been driving, was upside down.My brain shut down completely in seconds, and the only thing I wanted to do was get to my son. I felt cold arms around me, pulling me away, stopping me from what I was about to do. And just then, my senses snapped back."What are you trying to do?" Lisa asked, still clutching me tight. "Do you want to kill yourself?""Let me go. I need to get to Zane," I said, struggling to break free from Lisa's hold, but she was determi
Despised By My Billionaire Husband CHAPTER 147: Trapped
I pinched my phone screen to zoom in and see the location on the blinking tracker."Get in!" Lisa called as she drove to where I was standing.I hurried around the car to the passenger side. Lisa zoomed off the moment I shut the door."Where is he headed?" she asked, not taking her eyes off the road."He's heading north, up the West Side Highway.""He's going toward the bridge. That's almost twenty minutes away from here. How did he get there so fast?" Lisa said, before stepping on the gas pedal, increasing our speed."What exactly happened? Why did Zion run away?" Lisa asked."He didn't have his way with Aldwin this time." That was what I understood from what Zane had explained in a rush."What do you mean?""It seems he made a request… wait." A sudden realisation hit me. Could that be it?"What?" Lisa asked, itching to hear the reason."Zion came to me earlier, asking who Aldwin would choose as CEO. I told him I had no idea about that or if it was even a thing. He didn't seem please
Despised By My Billionaire Husband CHAPTER 146
"Ignore them," Zane said, concluding that this greed was fueled by his friends. "Don't let them push you into an unnecessary competition. Trust Father's decision if he has to pick a CEO.""I said you should leave my friends out of this," Zion said, then stood up. "You know what? Forget I ever asked. I'll ask Father myself." He walked away angrily.Zane watched his brother as he walked away, wondering what else could be going on in his mind. What else was he up to? But seeing how displeased Zion was, he wondered if he had done the right thing.He had never said no to Zion, and this one seemed important to him.Zane shrugged off the thought.A few minutes later, he decided to look for Zion to see what he was up to. He noticed Zion speaking to Aldwin in a corner, so he stood to observe.Aldwin had an amused expression on his face, while Zion had a look of dissatisfaction. Whatever the outcome was, Zane knew it wasn't to Zion's liking. Zion was still talking while Aldwin watched his son w
Despised By My Billionaire Husband CHAPTER 145: The Divide
The edge in Zane's voice made him sound almost annoyed, like he was being disturbed with indirect schemes and questions he didn't want to entertain.But Zion wanted what he wanted, so he ignored Zane's unusual attitude and asked anyway."Can you help me talk to Father?" Zion asked calmly, not wanting to offend Zane any further."About what exactly?" Zane asked, eyeing Zion. He knew his brother was definitely up to something, knowing him to be the free spirit who spoke whatever he had in mind.What could be so difficult to talk to Aldwin about? Zane knew there was more to this "favor" he was asking for. It caught his interest now."What is this about?" Zane asked again, seeing how Zion hesitated to state whatever it was.Zion cleared his throat, even though he didn't need to. "Help me declare your lack of interest to Father. I want to be CEO, and I know you don't have any interest in that," Zion said with a playful wink."Declare my lack of interest?" Zane repeated his words."Yes.""I
Despised By My Billionaire Husband CHAPTER 60: Let's Play – Russian Roulette
I called Ralph hoping he'd tell me what I wanted to hear, but instead he used me to steal confidential documents from Aldwin.Maybe he deserves it. After everything Aldwin had put me through, maybe this was just payback. Or maybe it was another trap. Another disaster waiting to happen.My situation
Despised By My Billionaire Husband CHAPTER 55: Caught In The Act
As usual, Aldwin had left for work that morning. The thought sat with me through breakfast, I had plotted a hundred ways to wreck through Aldwin's chambers and find the precontract— my only ticket out of this cage. I waited until Matthew's call confirmed they had left the premises. Then I moved, no

“Mom, it's not that bad.”“It is that bad. You should be trying to fix the problem you already have, not creating more for yourself and others.”“That's why I was with Ralph,” I said in defense.“Is that right?” She gave me a look, then went inside. I followed her. Locking the door behind me.She w
Despised By My Billionaire Husband CHAPTER 52: The Longing
"What are you doing?" His voice was shaky with hungry desire. "Do you think you can resist this?" I pulled the shirt apart and let it fall to the floor. His breathing quickened. The look on his face said he wasn't going to fight this. I smiled. With both hands, I gripped the sides of my lace p
