Inside the wet, dark cell room, two men sat far from each other. They didn’t know how many hours they had been there, but it felt like an eternity.

“I told you we should leave, but you relied on that bastard who can’t even outdo his brother. Now look where we are,” one of the men said, causing the other to sigh. At that moment, they heard the rumbling sound of chains, and the door opened.

The light turned on, and they immediately shut their eyes, trying to adjust to the sudden brightness.

  • Married to a heartless billionaire    The funeral

    Aurora was still in shock. Her hands had been shaking since yesterday’s incident. She couldn’t imagine that the day she had finally decided to meet her father would be the very day his life was taken right in front of her.She swallowed hard as tears continued to stream down her face.“​​Honey.”Damien wrapped his arms around her from behind as she stood on their balcony, staring into the distance.“Please stop crying. Looking like this, you can’t attend his funeral tomorrow. Besides, our baby is depending on you for survival.” He whispered, gently placing her hand over her stomach.Aurora immediately burst into tears.She turned to Damien and raised her hands to his face.“Can you do this for me?” she asked, her voice trembling.“Anything you want,” he replied, wiping her tears with his thumb.“Find the person who killed him. Find out why,” she pleaded.Damien took her lips gently, kissing her to soothe her before placing a soft kiss on her forehead.“I’m on it, my love.”Aurora nodd

  • Married to a heartless billionaire    He’s dead

    At the Mason Hotel and Lounge, the rooftop restaurant had been reserved exclusively for them that evening.The father and son sat together at the table, talking as they waited for Aurora.“So, tell me, what is she like?” Mason asked his father, who frowned.“Who is that?” his father asked, making Mason smile.“Jane.”His father chuckled.“Don’t let your mother hear you.”“Oh, please, Father. I’m sure she’s the reason you cheated,” Mason said, making his father sigh.“Mmm.” He let out a long sigh.“I won’t blame your mother for my mistake, Mason. Jane’s beauty was irresistible. Every time I visited that restaurant in Russia, I found myself salivating—not because of the food, but because of her. I took the slightest chance I had with her.“I knew your mother would be upset. She’s the masterpiece of what we have today, but I wanted to see the world. And when I saw Jane, I felt it was my chance.“Maybe if I had known she was pregnant, I would have hidden her away and paid her off to prote

    Morning came, and Quin dressed excitedly before rushing to work.Inside the CEO’s office, a man stood facing Damien while the sound of his stamp echoed through the room.Quin cleared her throat and put on a bright smile.She softly called her boss’s name three times before walking to stand in front of him.“Good morning, sir,” she greeted, waiting for her charm to take effect.To her surprise, Damien didn’t even raise his head. He continued signing the documents before finally speaking.“You told Mr. Alphonso that I was doing business with Mr. Rico?” he asked, lifting his eyes to meet hers.Quin remained silent for a moment, still expecting her charm to work. But nothing happened.“Will you answer me before I send your ugly face to hell?” Damien’s voice came out cold and sharp.Quin gasped and swallowed hard.“I… I didn’t know he had any connection with Mr. Rico. He asked me out on a date and used the deal to threaten me, so I only told him that… that he shouldn’t feel special because

  • Married to a heartless billionaire    It was to protect you

    Damien didn’t stutter. He simply wanted his wife to understand why he had done what he did.Aurora sat on the bed and lowered her head.“You don’t have to forgive me if you don’t want to. But I want you home, Aurora. Please, sweetheart,” Damien pleaded.Aurora sighed.She was confused and didn’t know what to do.She looked at Damien, the man who was her husband, the man she wanted to spend the rest of her life with.But he was cruel.Could she really continue living with him?Could she overlook everything he had done?Those questions replayed endlessly in her mind.“It was to protect you,” Damien said as he stood up.“Protect me?” Aurora scoffed.Just then, there was a knock on the door.Aurora stood up to answer it, but Damien stopped her.“I’ll get it.”He opened the door and found Mason standing outside.“Why are you here?” Damien asked coldly.“Aurora,” Mason called.Aurora walked over.“Let him in, Damien,” she said.“No, don’t worry. I only came to let you know that Dad agreed t

    Mason struck Damien’s hands repeatedly, trying to free himself, but he was no match for him.James watched in horror as Mason’s eyes began to bulge. He quickly looked around, desperately searching for a way to stop his boss before he seriously hurt him.Suddenly, an idea came to him.He immediately pulled out his phone.“Boss! Boss! Madam is calling!” he shouted.Damien instantly released Mason.Mason dropped to his knees, coughing violently as he struggled to catch his breath.Damien slowly turned toward James, who immediately lowered his head.“Forgive me, sir. She didn’t—”“Urgh!”James groaned in pain as Damien drove a punch into his stomach.“That’s for lying to me,” Damien said coldly before turning back to Mason.“You should leave before I snap the life out of you.”Mason cleared his throat and slowly got to his feet.“I’m not scared of you, Damien. Your wife doesn’t want to see you until you reveal your hidden child. I can’t believe you hid a child you had with Beverly after e

    The car fell silent. Aurora looked at her husband. His hands tightened around the steering wheel before he started the engine again and drove off.“I asked you a question,” she said before looking away.“Yes. It wasn’t planned,” he admitted.Aurora scoffed.“Not planned? Just when I thought our marriage was finally on the right track, another unplanned child appears. How old is he?” she asked, trying hard not to shed tears.“Three months old. He’s not with me. He’s with his foster parents,” Damien replied.Aurora frowned.“I… I don’t understand. What do you mean he’s with his foster parents?”“It’s my past. I didn’t tell you because it’s my past,” Damien answered.Aurora looked away in disbelief.“Three months? Your past? Damien, when will I finally get some closure in this marriage? When will Beverly stop being a part of our lives? I’ve been through enough. I’ve suffered enough, Damien. I… I don’t want to live like this anymore.”She wiped away the tears that had already begun to fal

    Aurora walked into the wardrobe where Damien was, after she was done eating. Her eyes widened, and she couldn’t help but chuckle.“What’s funny?” Damien turned around, wearing white pants and a beach shirt.“What’s in all these boxes?” she asked, opening one.“Ahh…” she looked at Damien, who smiled

    John drank his life away. The fact that his father’s death didn’t hurt him as much as seeing his wife having an affair did.
