The mysterious Billionaire's Wife; a lost heiress. 056: Broken unity, One Hatred
(Mia’s POV)At this point, my heart couldn’t trust anyone anymore. I knew Robert’s story too well clear enough to sense when he would lie. His life had been rough, filled with ridges of struggle and pain—pains he still couldn’t heal from till date.But that wasn’t my focus. I had a life I didn’t know, truths I couldn’t reach, answers no one could offer.Did Mom truly leave me? Did she never want to come back for me? My mind searched hard for answers but found none.I booked an early flight to Los Angeles and stayed at Emily’s apartment. At this point, even if I had to borrow, I was ready to take any loan possible just to run away from the Lud family, a home poisoned with rage and a never-ending thirst for revenge.The cold breeze of Los Angeles hit me hard as I stepped into the city. Emily stayed beside me; her knowledge about celebrity life was a vital key to breaking into a society that saw us as poor and weak.“Ma’am,” Emily called, handing me a cup of coffee as we sat at an eatery
The mysterious Billionaire's Wife; a lost heiress. 055: Twist in Truth
(Robert POV)I couldn’t do anything as I watched Mia run away from me and Jake. Regret filled my chest like fire, and I wished I had held back my anger.“I guess you’re satisfied. The truth you desperately wanted to let out is now known.” I glared at Jake, disgust burning in my face.I thought of the morning when she burned her hand with hot tea and I couldn’t go to her… the times I saw her tremble and wondered what fear was holding her. And now, the truth I never wanted her to know had spilled out in the worst way.“So you finally acted so wisely,” Victoria’s voice cut through the rage burning toward Jake.“This was not how it was meant to be,” I muttered.“It would never have been in a better way, Robert. The sooner she knows the truth, the easier it will be to strike at the Cop’s Multi-Trade.” Victoria’s tone was sharp, her eyes narrowing toward Jake.“Take him away,” she commanded. And at once, Jake was seized.“Don’t think you’ll get away with this, Victoria,” Jake shouted as the
The mysterious Billionaire's Wife; a lost heiress. 054: A Shift
(Mia POV)I sat across from Jake while he kept up his jokes and little antics, his voice a steady stream of ridiculous comments that made the world shrink down to the two of us. For a while, I forgot the charade earlier and felt unexpectedly light, as if air itself had become easier to breathe.“You always make me feel better,” the words escaped my lips before I could stop them.“I love to see your smile, they are beautiful.” His words were smooth, too endearing; for a heartbeat my chest fluttered and something warm stirred inside me.I chuckled nervously, unsure what to say next. Then Jake’s phone buzzed.His face brightened; his lips parted into a grin that revealed his upper teeth. He pumped his hands together like a child.“Yes,” he breathed, his fingers tightening in excitement.Curious, I leaned over to see what news had him so elated.My eyes widened. Our broadcast had racked up over five million views and sponsors were pouring in. This meant success — not just a small win, but
The mysterious Billionaire's Wife; a lost heiress. 053: Never Accepted as a Family
(Mia’s POV)I breathed heavily as I reached my room. My chest rose and fell in ragged motions until I finally calmed myself. Knowing this was the best moment to check the files, I rushed back into his room. My eyes scanned quickly, relief washing through me when I noticed the folder was still exactly where I had left it.With trembling hands, I pulled out one picture and flipped through the documents. They were ownership papers buildings registered under his name. My legs grew weak, and I sank onto the floor, sitting back on them as though they could no longer carry me.Then my eyes froze. There it was, an unexpected set of contract papers. My heart stopped for a moment as I read the names. It was a contract between Robert and James.The truth lay open before me, the reason James had taken Robert away from the Coles, right before realizing he was his son. My eyes widened, my pulse quickened. The agreement bore both their signatures.I was still reeling from the shock when my phone buz
The mysterious Billionaire's Wife; a lost heiress. 052: Failed Attempt
~Mia POV~I stood up immediately as Robert walked toward me, knowing full well I had pushed the documents under the table.“I couldn’t sleep, so I thought of watching you sleep well,” I said, my heart beating faster. I just hoped he wouldn’t notice my anxiety.“I told you I’m fine. Why would you come into my room this late?” he asked, about to check the time when I rushed toward him and hugged him tightly.“I just wanted to give you one last embrace before I sleep,” I said, lying, scared he would notice.He laughed lightly and hugged me back before pulling away. “If you wanted to watch me sleep, what were you doing by the table? You should have just slept on the bed.”“I…I…erm…” I laughed awkwardly, lacking words to cover my shame. Robert is very intelligent; he loves details and wouldn’t stop until he understood.“I… wasn’t sure you would like it. You said I shouldn’t take advantage of you anymore,” I said, trying to use emotion and pity to shift his suspicious gaze away from me.“Co
The mysterious Billionaire's Wife; a lost heiress. 051: A veil of pretence
~Mia POV~I met Emily seated calmly at a corner in the restaurant I had chosen. It was Mom’s favorite—El Patio. They served traditional cuisines, not the kind the rich often fancied, but warm and comforting in ways money could never buy.“Sorry I’m late,” I said, slipping into the seat opposite her.“No, it’s fine, you’re just in time. I already placed an order,” she replied, pulling out a brown envelope.“Were you able to get any information?” I asked eagerly.“Yeah, I did. It’s true. He actually lived years back with a peasant farmer in the hills of Compton, but later, they stayed in an orphanage they helped run.” She placed the envelope in front of me.“Does that mean the Cole Orphanage was built by Robert?” I asked, remembering how he had stepped out of the building that night through the back door, how he had wept on Mrs. Cora’s shoulder.“It’s not completely confirmed. But from what the locals say, there’s no denying Robert was with them,” Emily explained.“Then why was he taken
