Mathew's voice immediately cut through the chaos. "Get Allison's inhaler immediately!" he shouted at one of the servants as he rushed toward Allison who was struggling to breathe.

Servants scrambled in panic, rushing to get the inhaler, while Isabel knelt beside her daughter, crying hysterically. But amidst the concern and worry in the room, Isabel, as expected, turned her sharp accusations toward Emma.

"You did this, you witch!" Isabel sobbed, her voice shaking with rage. " Are you happy now?! Tell me! You want my daughter dead just because you couldn't stand the fact that Allison is happy, that she has a good life with David and Henry! You wanted to destroy her, just like you've always wanted to!"

Emma scoffed, barely reacting to Isabel’s harsh words. She had long grown tired of her stepmother’s dramatic accusations. But when Isabel’s teary eyes locked onto her, her expression twisted with something even more venomous.

"Just like the swimming incident all those years ago!" Isabel co

  • Loving The Billionaire Gone Wrong   House Chaos

    Emma slowly stirred awake, her eyebrows slightly knitting together as faint, deep voices echoed from somewhere near the front door. It wasn’t too loud, but loud enough to pull her out of sleep.She had become a light sleeper these past few days, always half-alert, especially after everything that had happened. Slowly, she sat up, wincing slightly from the pull in her side. Her bandages still felt tight around her ribs. Her walking aid and wheelchair were placed right beside the bed, but she carefully reached for the walking aid, steadying herself before standing up.As she shuffled towards the door, the voices became clearer. They were familiar... too familiar.“Sophie?” she called softly as she approached.Reaching the small hallway, Emma saw Sophie standing by the door, arms crossed tightly over her chest. Her brows were furrowed, clearly frustrated. But what caught Emma’s attention more were the two voices—Christian and David.“I’ve al

  • Loving The Billionaire Gone Wrong   Unexpected Neighbor

    Dr. Allen stood by the hospital bed, speaking softly to Emma. "Emma, remember, you still have your bandages on, so try not to strain yourself. No heavy lifting, no bending too much, and make sure to rest often. Your stitches need time to heal."Emma nodded, listening carefully. "Alright, Dr. Allen. I understand."David stood at the foot of the bed, arms crossed, listening even more seriously than Emma herself. His brows were furrowed as if he was the one with the injuries. He suddenly spoke up, glancing between Emma and the doctor. "Dr. Allen, don't you think it would be better if she used a wheelchair for a while? So she doesn't strain herself too much?"Dr. Allen opened his mouth to answer but was quickly interrupted by a low chuckle from the other side of the room. Christian.Christian stood leaning against the wall, arms folded, with a slight smirk on his face. "Hmm... I think a wheelchair isn't necessary. A walking aid or maybe a light rollator would be better, right, Dr. Alle

    David stepped out of Emma's room, letting the door close quietly behind him. He pulled out his phone, glanced at the screen, and sighed. It was Oliver, his assistant, calling again."Yeah, Oliver," David answered, pinching the bridge of his nose as he started walking towards the quiet corner of the parking lot."Sir, the documents you were supposed to sign this afternoon are still pending. There’s also a contract that needs your review before tomorrow morning," Oliver reported.David let out a breath. "I know, Oliver. I’ll take care of it when I get to the office tomorrow. I’ve got something more important going on right now.""Okay, sir. Just letting you know the board is expecting your signature before tomorrow noon.”"Got it. I'll get everything done before noon... just remind me." David hung up and slipped the phone back into his pocket. He glanced at his wristwatch; he needed to go to the station to know the situation of th

  • Loving The Billionaire Gone Wrong   An Awkward Visit

    Emma sat upright on her hospital bed, flipping through a magazine absentmindedly.The door suddenly opened, and Emma's face lit up as she saw Grandpa walking in."Grandpa!" she smiled warmly. "You came. How are you doing?"Grandpa chuckled softly, walking in with slow but steady steps. "I'm fine, my dear. Just a little tired, but I couldn't stay home without coming to see you."She grinned. "Thank you, Grandpa."Before Emma could say anything more, the door opened again, and David stepped in right behind Grandpa.Emma blinked, a bit surprised. She hadn't expected to see him here. He didn't show up last night, and even when she sent him a message, he didn't even reply.Her smile faltered just a little but quickly returned."Oh... David. Hi."David nodded slightly, clearing his throat as he walked over."Emma. How... how are you feeling?" His voice was gentle, and he offered a polite smile, but his body language seemed awkward and restrained… unlike the way they used to chat and gist be

  • Loving The Billionaire Gone Wrong   Wrong Timing

    Christian stayed by Emma’s side all through the night until she slowly drifted off to sleep. She breathed softly, and a gentle smile stayed on her lips. Christian quietly watched her, his own lips curling into a small smile.This was the woman who owned his heart, the reason he fought so hard to return to New York. No matter the pain, no matter the obstacles, everything was worth it—just to be with her.Carefully, he stood up from the chair, not wanting to wake her. He quietly walked into the restroom connected to the hospital room.The light flickered on as he turned on the light switch. Then, he went ahead to turn on the faucet.Christian leaned forward and splashed the cold water on his face, hoping it would ease the heavy thoughts swirling in his mind.As he wiped his face, his eyes caught his reflection in the large mirror. His gaze darkened. Slowly, he lifted his shirt, revealing a large white bandage pressed against his side. Beneath it was a gradually healing gunshot wound. He

  • Loving The Billionaire Gone Wrong   Torn Realities

    Emma's entire body froze. Her lips trembled slightly as she stared wide-eyed at the man standing in front of her."Christian..." she muttered under her breath in disbelief.Christian walked toward her with a faint smile on his lips. His gaze was soft, yet there was a certain depth in his eyes that was hard to read. He stepped even closer, stopping just a breath away from her, and with a gentle voice, he whispered, "Hello, my love."Before Emma could even process anything further, Christian leaned down and pressed a soft kiss on her forehead. His warmth lingered, but Emma was completely still, her mind struggling to accept the reality unfolding before her.Her fingers slightly trembled, and her voice was unsteady when she finally managed to speak. "Where have you been?" she asked, a mixture of hurt and worry in her tone. "I tried reaching out to you so many times... No one knew where you were. Where have you been all this while, Christian?"Christian sighed, rubbing the back of his ne
