Eloise’s POV

The first thing I noticed when I arrived at the studio was the tense atmosphere.

Everyone was quiet and focused on their work.

It wasn’t like earlier when everyone had been chatting at once. Now, it was as if the whole room was holding its breath.

“Eloise,” Colette called, walking up to meet me even before I reached the door.

I stopped and faced her.

“Any update?”

“I’ve already contacted the legal department. Ms. Savarre also confirmed she’s on her way.”

I nodded.

“Good. What about the bride’s team? Have they said anything new?”

Colette shook her head.

“Not yet. But… there’s someone inside. She said she wanted to talk with you.”

She glanced at the studio door, then back at me.

I frowned, noticing the hesitation in her eyes.

“Who’s there?”

“Uh… she said she’s the designer of the bride’s gown.”

I froze.

Without answering, I immediately walked into the studio.

And there she was—standing beside the unfinished gown I was working on.

“Mildred,” I said, my voice cutting sharply

  • Falling In Love with my Cold Billionaire Husband   Chapter 90: No One can hurt her

    Sebastian’s POVI had just finished filing the case against Mildred.My lawyer told me the kidnapping charges here in Paris would proceed. She would be jailed for a few more days while arrangements for her transfer to the Philippines were being finalized.I never wanted this to happen. But I had no choice.Mildred would continue to be a threat to Eloise if I didn’t have her locked up.“Everything is ready, Mr. Whitmore,” Marcus said.He had flown in to join me in Paris and help handle the aftermath of everything that had happened.We had just stepped out of the station where Mildred was now being held and were walking toward the car in the parking lot.“Let me know when you’re heading back to the Philippines,” he added.I nodded. “Okay. I’ll call you. You can head back ahead of me.”“Yes, sir—”We both stopped walking as we neared the car.Marcus looked down at the phone in his hand.“I’ll just take this call, sir.”I nodded and waited beside the car.“Yes? Okay. I’ll inform him.”My

  • Falling In Love with my Cold Billionaire Husband   Chapter 89: Ellaine

    Eloise’s POVI sat in front of the empty chair. In front of me was a glass partition where I could see the person I was about to speak to on the other side of the room.I couldn’t stay still, having already sat there for several minutes. I tried to stop myself from overthinking.What if I break down when I see her? What if I lose it?I took a deep breath. I should relax.Even though I didn’t know what might happen, I needed to face her.A few moments later, the door on the other side of the room opened.I watched the woman in an orange suit enter. She was handcuffed, and a police officer followed behind her.She immediately smirked the moment she saw me through the glass.The officer guided her to sit across from me.“Wow… You came, huh?” she said, amused.I took another deep breath. I could still hear the loud pounding of my chest.“Why… Why did you do this, Mildred?” I asked.Her brows immediately furrowed. She placed her hands on the table and glared at me.“How many times do I hav

  • Falling In Love with my Cold Billionaire Husband   Chapter 88: Fall again

    Eloise’s POVThe first thing I felt was the weight in my chest.Not pain—though there was a dull ache in my arms—but heaviness. As if my heart had been wrung out, then shoved back into my chest, bruised and sore.I opened my eyes slowly.Sterile white ceiling. Faint hum of machines. The scent of antiseptic.Hospital.A soft beeping beside me matched the rhythm of my pulse. I turned my head. There was an IV attached to my hand, my wrist wrapped in gauze.And then—“Eloise?”I blinked.Colette.She was sitting on the recliner, eyes wide and red-rimmed, her blazer wrinkled, her hair slightly out of place. She looked like she hadn’t slept.“You’re awake!” she whispered, standing up quickly and leaning over the bed. “Oh, my God—thank God.”My throat felt dry. “Water…”She reached for a cup and helped me sip through a straw.The cold water hit my throat like ice. I winced.“Do you remember what happened?” she asked gently.I nodded slowly. “The studio. Mildred. I…”Colette’s expression turn

  • Falling In Love with my Cold Billionaire Husband   Chapter 87: Safe

    Sebastian’s POVI was practically flying down the road as I drove to Savarre Studio.I didn’t know why this overwhelming dread had settled in my chest after speaking to Mildred.I didn’t want to believe the thoughts racing through my head—that she was capable of doing something unforgivable. She wasn’t like this before.Mildred used to be kind. Sweet, even. Strong, yes—but only when she had to stand for what was right.I remember how generous she was. She would often put others before herself, always finding a way to forgive even when she was hurting.Or maybe… maybe I broke something in her.I slammed my palm against the steering wheel in frustration.Maybe I was wrong about her all this time.People change, right?But if she’s angry, then she should take it out on me. Not on Eloise.I’m the one who broke her heart.I don't think I could live with myself if something happens to Eloise. Especially if Mildred had anything to do with it.The second I reached the company building, I rush

  • Falling In Love with my Cold Billionaire Husband   Chapter 85: Danger

    Sebastian’s POVThe smile on my face never faded.After months of trying to win her back—Eloise finally forgave me.And the joy I felt because of that… I couldn’t even begin to put into words.She forgave me.And this time, I was going to make sure I never took it for granted again.After she left, I took out my phone and dialed a number.I knew she told me not to get involved.Not to help her.But this was Mildred we were talking about.There was no way I could just stand by and do nothing.“Mr. Whitmore, Sir,” Marcus greeted as soon as he picked up. “Should I schedule you a flight already?”I shook my head, even though he couldn’t see it.“No.”There was a pause. “Okay, Sir… how long are you planning to stay?”“I still need time. By the way, do you have any news about Mildred? Is she still using the assets I gave her?”After I called off our engagement, I hadn’t spoken to her again.In fact, we’d had no contact at all. She didn’t even bother reaching out.Marcus’s voice dropped a bi
