MARRIED TO THE BILLIONAIRE STRANGER Chapter forty two: Tight spot
Rafael’s POV…..Spending the evening with Isabella was perfect, we stayed together and enjoyed the evening, we both weren't ready to go back to the hotel room, but we had too.We slept off and Isabella made her ridiculous pillow division, like that was meant to stop me and we went to bed.It was morning already, but Isabella was still sleeping, I decided to take a morning walk.I shouldn’t have left Isabella alone.The thought struck me the moment I stepped away from the terrace, like an itch under my skin I couldn’t scratch. The corridor leading back into the main resort was quiet, the music from the beach was muted behind thick glass walls. My phone buzzed in my palm, probably work but before I could check it, a familiar voice cut through the silence.“Running away already?”I stopped dead in my track.And turned to her.Giselle stood a few feet away, her arms crossed and her lips curved in that irritating, knowing smile. She looked immaculate—as always.She was wearing a white lin
MARRIED TO THE BILLIONAIRE STRANGER Chapter forty one: Pretend to be mine
Isabella’s POV…..I was still staring at him trying to understand why he has the same cap I had seen in the footage.I didn’t give myself time to overthink it.If I did, I’d talk myself out of it—convince myself I was imagining things, reading too meaning into things. I walked straight up to Sebastian before I could chicken out.He was standing near the edge of the resort lawn, his phone in hand and the ocean breeze tugging at his shirt. When he noticed me approaching, his brows lifted slightly in question.“Isabella,” he said easily. “Enjoying Miami?”My gaze dropped to his head again, I was still looking at the cap.My chest tightened.“That cap, it's nice,” I said suddenly “Where did you get it?”Sebastian blinked once, then he smiled at me.“This?” He adjusted it casually. “ I recently. Picked it up in Europe. Why?”My pulse thudded. “Recently… as in when?”“Couple weeks ago,” he shrugged. “Why? You collecting fashion notes now?”I searched his face, hoping—ridiculously—that so
MARRIED TO THE BILLIONAIRE STRANGER Chapter forty: The game
Isabella’s POV…..We walked to the beach and the place was beautiful, Sunlight spilled across the sand like molten gold, the ocean stretching endlessly in front of us, it was huge and so clear.Soft music thumped from portable speakers planted in the sand, a mix of pop and reggaeton that blended with laughter, crashing waves, and the low hum of conversation.“Here” Aurora said handing me a sunscreen “What will I do without you” I told her kissing her cheeksRafael grunted Aurora was already halfway out of her cover-up, tossing it dramatically onto a beach chair like she was stepping onto a runway instead of the water.“Ladies and gentlemen,” she announced loudly, hands on her hips, “I did not come to Miami to sit down and sip coconut water.”Julian scoffed, adjusting his sunglasses, I had forgotten he was seating there.“You didn’t come for peace. That much is clear.” he said “Bella!” Aurora grabbed my wrist. “We’re going swimming.”“I didn’t say yes,” I protested, already being
MARRIED TO THE BILLIONAIRE STRANGER Chapter Thirty nine: Miami day one
Isabella’s POV……No…… No please…….Nooooo!!!!!I woke up to screams and looked around, Rafael was twitching and moaning with pain, he was having a nightmare. His jaw was clenched so tight and tears streaked down his face.This was the first time I was seeing Rafael like this.So human and helpless.“No,” he whispered hoarsely. “Mum” he said weakly My chest tightened.He shifted suddenly, his breath hitching, a low sound tearing from his throat—raw and unguarded. His hand fisted in the sheets like he was holding on to something slipping away.I needed to stop him before he hurt himself.I didn’t think. I just moved.“Rafael,” I whispered, placing my hand on his arm.He flinched and moved away.His eyes flew open, wild and unfocused,his pupils were blown wide as if he were still somewhere else entirely. For a second I thought he didn’t recognize me.Then he sucked in a sharp breath.“It’s okay,” I said softly, scooting closer to him and laying his head on my chest, as I soothed
MARRIED TO THE BILLIONAIRE STRANGER Chapter Thirty eight: Divide the bed
Rafael’s POV…..The shower did nothing to calm me down, all I could think about was Isabella in the same room with me, and we have to sleep on the same bed.The water beat against my shoulders, hot enough to sting, but my mind refused to settle down.We were in Miami, there were cameras following us everywhere like some kind of reality show.The room next door filled with people who would sell a story, any story at all for a check. And Isabella—angry, and sharp-tongued, so beautiful in a way that made concentrating a problem.Fuck!!I shut off the water and grabbed a towel, wrapping it low around my waist.When I stepped back into the bedroom, I felt it immediately.Her gaze sharp on my body.Isabella sat on the armchair by the window, her beautiful legs crossed and her lhone abandoned in her lap. She wasn’t trying to be subtle. Her eyes tracked me openly, unapologetically, lingering just long enough to make a point of it, when j saw her eyes trailing to my crotch I almost took if m
MARRIED TO THE BILLIONAIRE STRANGER Chapter Thirty seven: Miami
Isabella’s POV……I definitely didn't plan to go to Miami, but hopefully it would be worth it.I packed my suitcase and it all felt surreal My suitcase lay open on the bed, half-filled with dresses I wasn’t sure I wanted to wear and shoes I didn’t feel like walking in.But I had to act and look like the perfect wife and the perfect heir of the Monroe family. Every outfit felt I packed felt like a costume it spoke of a perfect wife, perfect couple and a woman in control.None of them felt like me.I stared at the mess for a long moment before flopping down beside it with a groan.“Why is this even happening?” I muttered to myself.A soft knock sounded on the door before Aurora pushed it open without waiting for an answer.She leaned against the doorframe,her arms crossed, eyes flicking over the chaos on the bed . “You pack like you don't want to”“I live in exhaustion,” I replied. “There’s a difference.”She smirked and walked in, picking up a silk dress from the bed. “This one’s hot.
