MY EX-HUSBAND BETRAYED ME, BILLIONAIRE SAVED ME

NATHALIE’S POV-When I got my passbook from the bank teller, I checked its contents. A bitter smile touched my lips after seeing only eigthy dollars left on my bank account.After all the important thing I have paid off the debt and I no longer owe monthly payments.After leaving the bank and since I was already at the mall, I bought a chocolate cake.“Ma’am, what should I put on the dedication cake?” The person who assisted me at this cake shop asked.“Happy fourth wedding anniversary,” I answered the woman with a smile.“Wow! Congratulations, Ma’am.”“Thank you.”After buying the cake, I also bought a platter of spaghetti. Joshua, my husband, told me he would be busy and would work overtime, so I wanted to surprise him.He worked for a multi-billionaire jewelry company, therefore he was often busy and almost slept there. We need to get better at work to pay off all our debts. I often help him with his works and other work for the company.My surprises are sure to bring a huge smil

NATHALIE’S POV-SHE threw my clothes in my face. “I’m your only friend, so you can’t approach anyone else right now,” she shook her head while laughing. “Just tell me where you’re going to bury your mother–oops. My mistake, you’re without the means to bury your mother.”Her disrespect caused a tightness in my chest. How could she devise and utter such a statement? When my parents and her parents had a dispute and my parents kept me away from her before, my parents still treated Hazel like a daughter. Often her mother was away for work, we gave her food because her mother didn’t leave her any cooked food.She turned away but turned back and clapped her hands once. “I just remembered. The one about threatening life, I was the one who came up with it. I talked to Joshua’s creditors to threaten our lives, especially your mother, so that you can pay off the debt and that way we can get you out of our lives.”How could she do that thing?As Hazel entered the house, I picked up my clothes

NATHALIE’S POV-I instantly drop my smile.“But why…” I asked after he ended the call.It’s hard to get into Lewis company. It’s almost impossible to get into that company. Out of a hundred applicants I was with when I applied, only three of us got in.So it was heavy on my heart with just one word from a Calix Zander Watson, I lost my job after years of hard work.“You said you’d accept the consequences?” He innocently question me back.“Yes, but…” Both of my shoulders slumped.I anticipated my firing, especially given our client’s is Watson company. It’s just... I couldn’t explain myself and prove my ability to deliver the presentation.The presentation I was about to do was the first time I would speak to many people again. I have a fear of public speaking. I will try to fight this fear of mine through this presentation. But it seems like this is not for me.“Thank you.” At least my coworkers weren’t affected.Sir Calix turned his full attention back to his iP*d, while mwe, I took

NATHALIE’S POV-I couldn’t rest while we were on the trip to Watson company.I had so many questions for Sir Calix, especially about his help with my mother. But as he said, he will explain everything to me when we arrive at the company.“Sir Calix, how did you find out about my mother?” I couldn’t help but ask.Of all my concerns, the most important concern I have is that of my mother. As much as possible, I wanted to make sure that while I wasn’t by her side, she was fine.“The hospital called your phone last night about unpaid bills. You were sleeping soundly last night because of your fever, so I answered. I had your mother transferred to better ensure the success of her surgery.”Oh? That’s what happened. “Are you telling the truth?”Sir Calix spun his gaze to me with a frown. Did I offend him with my question? I just wanted to make sure.“I mean, you’re not a stalker, so you found out about my mother?”His eyes widened. He faked a cough as his stony gaze returned. “I-I’m not.”

NATHALIE’S POV-This time, Sir Calix made sure I was inside his office. He left me again for a few hours and now just came back.“Why were you with Harrison earlier?” he asked, sitting in the other seat.“Uh, he saw me outside–in the lobby.”“Lobby? Why are you in the lobby?”“Uh… I forgot the direction you gave me. Then the guard made me leave.”He manfully raised one eyebrow. I gulp. That was so hot of him.“Didn’t you say I was with you?”“I couldn’t explain.”“Was the guard who let you out assigned to this floor?”I nodded slowly, unsure whether someone assigned that guard here or he was just passing by.Sir Calix took his phone from his pocket and made a call. “Check the footage on this floor. Fired the guard who dragged the woman with me.”My eyes widened at his order. Is it that easy for him to fired someone?“Wait–” I grabbed his attention. “It’s not the guard’s fault. It’s my fault–actually, it’s your fault too.”I closed my eyes for a second at the last thing I said.“What?
