I Slapped My Fiancé—Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis Chapter 90 Drowning
I stepped into her space. ‘Oh really? What, you’re going to threaten me now? Come on, Isobel. It’s 2025, not the Wild West. What’s the plan—whack me? You think your precious family’s still going to clean up your mess? Still going to bail you out after everything you’ve done?’Her face flushed deep red, her breath jagged like she was seconds from bursting a blood vessel.‘Don’t talk to me like that!’ she hissed, her raised voice drawing attention.She glanced around, suddenly self-conscious, and dropped her tone. ‘Fine. How much would it take?’‘I told you, I don’t want money. I want you to go to the police and confess. Own up to what you did.’‘Not gonna happen.’‘Then we’re done.’I turned and walked off.It wasn’t like I could conjure up a sack, throw it over her head, and pick up where we left off back in high school with a proper beatdown.Short of that, I was done.She scrambled after me. ‘Wait!’Her hand clamped onto my arm.Stronger grip than I expected.I backhanded her in the

I tilted my head, smirking at her. ‘So, how’s life abroad been treating you? Since you’re back in town, I’m guessing your family’s decided to un-disown you?’Isobel’s grin wavered, freezing for a heartbeat before she caught herself. ‘Fine. Not that it’s any of your business. FYI, my family treats me like the queen I am.’‘Oh, really? Like a queen? That’s why they shipped you off with a single suitcase and no return ticket?’She stomped her heel, but the tip bounced off the concrete by the pool, making her wince.Then she stepped closer, invading my space. ‘What are you even doing here?’‘I could ask you the same thing.’‘I’m a friend of the Laurents. Engaged to one, actually.’‘Oh? I’m married to one.’Surely everyone with at least one functioning ear must have heard about me and Ashton by now.Isobel was just being her usual petty, self-important self.Her eyes flashed.She stepped in again, and I jabbed a finger towards her chest.‘Don’t get any closer. That knockoff Chanel stench i

Ashton gave Declan an approving nod, then turned to Gwendolyn. ‘I told you I’d bring my wife today. Anyone gives her trouble, they’re taking me on.’His voice was low, but it carried.Loud enough for everyone in the room to hear.The words weren’t just meant for Gwendolyn.They were a warning shot to the entire Laurent clan.Anyone who’d been whispering behind my back a second ago suddenly remembered how to shut up.A few awkward beats passed before the party resumed its rhythm, the chatter awkward at first, then slowly picking up pace again.Ashton took my hand and led me to the enormous sofa in the centre of the room.I braced myself for the glares, the barbed questions, the sudden onset of passive-aggression.But instead, everyone smiled.Some even tried to make it look convincing, though it was obvious they were clenching their molars behind those well-practised grins.

Ashton might’ve chuckled.He cleared his throat. ‘Mira, I think she said more than five million.’I widened my eyes and let out a delighted little gasp. ‘Ohhh, that’s so generous of you!’Gwendolyn nearly bit her tongue.But she couldn’t back out now—not without losing face.‘Oh, it’s nothing,’ she said, smile faltering.She jabbed Reginald in the ribs, who was still stuck in buffering mode. ‘Reggie will handle it today, won’t you, Reggie?’‘W-what?’ Reginald blinked. ‘Handle what?’‘The transfer, the… gift,’ she hissed, before turning to me with a buttery smile. ‘It’s Mirabelle, right?’‘Right.’ I shook her hand and resisted the urge to scrub mine with a disinfectant wipe.‘Did you and Ashton just get married yesterday?’‘No,’ I
I Slapped My Fiancé—Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis Chapter 86 Meet the Parents
I could feel every single set of eyes on us.Ashton was… well, Ashton.He looked like a walking piece of art.But not just beautiful.Dangerous-beautiful.Like one of those hyperrealistic 3D paintings of a cliff.Stare too long and you start to feel the drop.Me? I wasn’t bad either.Maybe a little less angelic than him, but definitely more than presentable.But I could tell it wasn’t the looks that had frozen the room.It was the way I was linking arms with him—easy, intimate, completely unselfconscious.Thanks to our multiple rehearsals (which, fine, had paid off), we didn’t look like a party fling.We looked like the real thing.I could practically see the thought bubbles forming above every head:‘Isn’t that Mirabelle Vance?’‘Wasn’t she engaged to Rhys Granger?’‘Didn’t she cause a scene at the last Laurent event?’‘How is she not blacklisted?’But the main headline was clear:‘What the hell is she doing with Ashton Laurent?’The whispers started immediately.We reached the centr
I Slapped My Fiancé—Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis Chapter 85 Paused on the Brink
He crossed his legs—tight, like that was the only thing stopping him from yanking me closer.I could feel his control slipping.His fingers clenched the sofa cushion like he needed an anchor.Damn, he was fighting hard.I could see it all over him.Then, suddenly, he snapped.Not in a wild, throw-me-down way.No, he slammed his palm into his other hand, like he was physically trying to shake himself out of whatever trance I’d pulled him into.He pushed up to stand, but my arms stayed locked around his neck, not ready to let go.He swore under his breath.Then he kissed me again, fast, hard, breathless.‘Don’t look at me like that,’ he muttered against my lips. ‘Or I’ll…’His words barely registered in my mind.I was already drunk on the taste of him, high on the heat, melting into him.Then he lifted me, carried me towards the stairs.One moment, I was in his lap, and the next, I was on my back, flat against the sheets in my room.Then he…Left.The door clicked shut behind him.Soft,
