Ciara’s POV

The alert finally pinged on my phone. I snatched it up, my heart racing with satisfaction as I opened the banking app. There it was—five hundred thousand dollars, sitting pretty in my account. Exactly what I had demanded from that foolish Nova. She really thought she could outsmart me? Pathetic.

A slow, satisfied smile spread across my face. I scanned the digits again, counting every zero to be sure. Perfect. With this money, I could finally disappear from this country without anyon

  • Falling For My Secret Billionaire    You Took Advantage of Me

    Leo’s POVI woke up with my head spinning so badly I thought the room was tilting. When I opened my eyes I froze. Nova’s head was resting on my bare chest. I was shirtless. She was completely naked. The sight stole every word from my mouth. I could not remember how we ended up like this.I pulled her head away from my chest at once. I prayed nothing had happened between us. Then I yanked the duvet back. We were both naked. The truth hit me like a punch.Did Nova take advantage of me while I was not myself?“Oh my God,” I screamed.She opened her eyes. A sleepy smile spread across her face.“Darling, you are awake. You were amazing last night, my husband. Words cannot explain how much I have fallen for you even more.”I stared at her and thought she was crazy. I could not remember a single thing that happened between us, but I knew I would never touch her even in her wildest dreams. The thought of anything happening with Nova disgusted me. Or had she taken advantage of me? I needed to

    Bella POV I don’t think I would ever forgive myself for treating the man I love with all my heart so badly.I didn’t believe him when he told me he didn’t touch Ciara. He said she had it all planned. I doubted him. I just didn’t trust him. I believed he slept with her.Tears rolled out of my eyes.“Leo, I’m sorry for not trusting you.”I let the words out like he could hear me right now. I don’t think he would ever forgive me for lying to him. I told him the child I’m carrying wasn’t his. I’m unbelievable.A knock came through my room.I stood and walked to the door. I opened it.Marcus was standing at the doorway. He looked so worried.“Bella, are you okay?” he asked. Worry was etched on his face.Why is he asking me if I’m okay? I didn’t tell him I wasn’t. Even though I wasn’t okay, there is no way I’m going to let him know. I’m angry at myself for hurting Leo. I just believed he cheated on me.“I’m okay, Marcus. You don’t need to worry about me,” I replied.He sighed like he was r

  • Falling For My Secret Billionaire    When I Called You Bella

    Leo’s POVNova wouldn’t leave me alone. Couldn’t she understand? I needed space.“I can’t leave you like this while you’re still wasting yourself on whiskey because of that bitch,” she said, trying to sound like a caring wife. She turned slowly, modeling for me, showing off how seductively she looked.“Ain’t I beautiful enough for you to notice? Why does it have to be her?” Her voice was full of desperation.I didn’t want to answer any of her questions. But she kept pushing, insisting she was better, so I finally told her the truth.“You can’t be like Bella. She has a good heart. You don’t.”She thought looking seductive would make me fall for her. My heart ached as the word forever flooded my memory. I couldn’t believe I was stuck with her. I had signed that document with my own eyes… or had they manipulated me into it? I knew my mother had planned all of this.I took another sip of whiskey, staring at the annoying woman in front of me. Instead of making her sad, my words made her sm

  • Falling For My Secret Billionaire    The Truth Behind the Betrayal

    Bella’s POVI had not been myself since Leo left this place.I sat on the couch in the garden, hoping the fresh air would quiet the thoughts racing through my mind. It did not. The soft breeze carried the scent of blooming flowers, but it only made the emptiness inside me feel sharper. Every breath reminded me that he was gone. Every quiet moment screamed his name.I felt like screaming. Like running after him, falling at his feet, and telling him how sorry I was for lying. I regretted it every single day. The weight of that regret sat heavy on my chest, pressing down until it was hard to breathe. But I could not. I knew the truth now—he was someone’s husband.Before I could even finish that thought, a sharp slap landed across my cheek.The force snapped my head to the side. Stinging heat bloomed across my skin. I raised my eyes and found a woman I had never seen in my life standing in front of me. Anger blazed across her face. I could not understand what I had done to her.“How dare

  • Falling For My Secret Billionaire    The Contract Trap

    Leo’s PovMy heart was so weary. Those last words from Bella’s mouth kept flooding into it like a soundtrack that refused to stop.“Leo, you ain’t the father of my unborn child. Marcus is.”The sentence hit my ears like noise I couldn’t shut off. “No. That can’t be.” I slammed my hand down so hard I saw blood well up across my knuckles. I had thought once I got home I would just collapse onto the bed and sleep like a log. I never expected this kind of disaster. My heart felt the full weight of a broken wing.Right now all I could do was try to sober my mind with alcohol and hope I would eventually pass out. I grabbed the bottle of whiskey, filled the glass, and thrust the drink down my throat in a single gulp. Even the burn couldn’t comfort the fear sitting in my chest.“No, Bella. That child you’re carrying is mine. I won’t let another man take away what belongs to me.” Even if she had sounded so convincing, I refused to believe a single word of it. I poured another full glass and ra

I don’t think I will ever forgive myself for lying to him—telling him the child I carry isn’t his. Tears kept dripping from my eyes the moment he walked away, leaving me standing there clinging to Marcus’s arm. They refused to stop.Marcus held me so tightly.“Don’t worry, Bella. You will be fine,” he whispered.I tried to force myself to believe it. I had to. But nothing felt certain. Right now I was losing myself piece by piece. The second he left carrying that lie—that Marcus was the father of my unborn child—it blasted my heart wide open.“Marcus… is he coming back?” I let out a heart-wrenching cry.I already knew the answer. He wasn’t coming back to me. He wasn’t coming back for the baby. He believed it wasn’t his.“No, Bella. I don’t think he is coming back. Isn’t that what you wanted?”The truth is… it was what I wanted.
