Never Divorce a Secret Billionaire Heiress Chapter 24: Dancing in the Moonlight.
Antonia’s pov. ‘You’re leaving Malachi aren’t you, Antonia?” Grandfather’s voice echoes in my ears as I sit on a couch in one of the rooms in Tieran’s mansion and the discussion we had replays. I sigh because I couldn't even hide it. I couldn’t tell him that I was going to stay behind and still be with Malachi. Something about my encounter with Malachi earlier made me unable to, so I said the truth, and now… Malachi’s grandfather has asked me to come back to the mansion. He wants me to stay till the end of the month because he’s dying and the doctor says he won’t make it into next month. The darkness of my grandmother’s death and the grief of it resurfaced faster than I could realize. It felt like he was in her position. Like she was somehow alive again, and this time I had a chance to be with her on her deathbed. The door comes open with a soft click and I direct my eyes to it. Tieran’s form is solid in the light coming in from the hallway. Compared to the softer light in here an
Never Divorce a Secret Billionaire Heiress Chapter 25: Antonia the Tycoon.
My father stares at me with blank, dead eyes and I don't know what hurts more. The pain that he’s going through or the fact that I'm the one making him go through it.I wish someone were here with me right now, but no one is so I have to face this alone. I get up from the table and walk over to my father, sitting on the seat beside him and taking his hand in mine. I ask the most honest question I can, “You trust me? Don’t you, dad?”He tries to put a smile on his face and I see how hard he’s trying to do that. He's just gotten me back, and now I'm going off again.“I wish you didn’t have to feel indebted to any of them, Antonia.”My father’s voice is sad even though his eyes radiate feeling and warmth. “I wish I was there from the beginning so you didn’t have to feel indebted to anyone. Your marriage should have been one of love and value, not something you had to count as a favor from someone, a favor which you now have to repay.”I realize immediately that my father and I see things
Never Divorce a Secret Billionaire Heiress Chapter 26: Well, look who couldn’t stay away?
Leaving the Elcot mansion fills me with a bittersweet feeling. It’s hard watching my father stay at the entrance while I get into the car and drive off. I’ve explored as much of the grounds as I could these past few days, but I know there’s still so much more he wants to show me. So much more I need to see. My hand rests on my belly and I remember the baby growing within. A million different thoughts run through my head and I push them off. I can’t think of that now. If the baby comes, then it comes. I need to be someone of repute and dignity before that happens, and I need Malachi to know he’s not the boss of me. No one is. Not even the one who was my husband and boss. The chauffeur drives me to the Finn mansion, and looks back as he asks, “Shall I take the bags down, Miss Antonia?”. As we rehearsed, he didn't refer to me as Miss Elcot. I take a deep breath and nod, getting down from the car too and taking in my surroundings like it’s the first time I'm here again. The Finn mansi
Never Divorce a Secret Billionaire Heiress Chapter 27: Mrs Antonia is back, Master Finn.
Malachi’s pov.“A call has come in for you Mr Finn.”I raise my head to look at the door and the wireless receiver in my new secretary’s hand. I ask coldly, “Did you learn how to forward a call when you had your orientation?”She nods slowly, a sheepish look in her eyes and an embarrassed blush on her cheek. I suppress the irritation in my eyes and return to the trade deal I was perusing as I respond, “Do that, and if that call cuts before you do, consider your job also cut.”The new secretary dashes back out like her skirt has just been set on fire. Exasperation has me clenching my jaw because this is what I have to deal with now. A sappy female who tries to do everything in her power to come into my personal space.She could have informed me over the system that I had a call, and then forwarded the call without having to leave her seat. But ever since she’s come she’s had this belief that she needs to swish her hips seductively around me.She also seems to believe she needs to have
Never Divorce a Secret Billionaire Heiress Chapter 28: None of this is your fault.
Antonia’s pov. I thought the main conflict would happen when Malachi was back and I was prepared for it, but Sienna seems to have prepared herself for more than that because it isn’t even evening yet, and she’s already making me mad. She was going through my bags! Anger and rage boil and bubble up in me but I tell myself to calm down. Letting her get me angry isn’t going to solve anything. Sienna Finn has never understood the concept of personal space when it didn’t suit her. But that’s not my problem. I’ve locked the room with my bags inside it and taken the key with me. “Antonia!” Malachi’s tone is dark and filled with anger when I hear it and I turn to find him stalking towards me. He grabs me by the arm the moment he’s near me and glares into my eyes menacingly. “What is the meaning of this Antonia?” The anger and rage I was feeling before come back to me all too freshly and I yank my arm trying to get away from his grip. Malachi’s hold is firm and I can see the pleasure in
Never Divorce a Secret Billionaire Heiress Chapter 29: Entrance pass.
The living room is deserted when I walk past it again and I'm thankful for it. No doubt Malachi would have tried to keep me from stepping out of the house if he saw me.He’d have failed. No one can keep me from going anywhere anymore. I’m no longer his wife. I no longer have to live by his rules.The dress I wear is a light and free one. Much more like summer dresses, it has a series of laces at the back that have to be tightened. The fabric is a pattern of keyholes put so tightly together, they form an optical illusion. The inspiration for it came when I wanted to have something that signifies freedom.I had been thinking heavily of being free myself then.There’s no one at the door too when I get there too and a brief thought crosses my mind, making me wonder where everyone has gone to. I head to my car, get in, and drive out of the opened gate.There’s no one at the gate. And that’s definitely strange. The only time something like this has happened was either when Malachi wanted to

“I apologize for the delay, sir. I’m trying to gain her entrance pass. No one goes in without an entrance pass.”The male in front of me gives the officer at the checkpoint a look that says he already knows that, and from that look alone my opinion about him sours further. He’s the guy I met at the mall.The one who was wearing his wedding ring but was trying to pay for the gifts I picked out, and then also trying to get to me so much that he had to be held back by the guards trailing me and I had to be rushed into the carI look into my rear mirror to see it’s just my car and his that are on line right now. His husky voice floats into my ears in a smug tone, “My eyes are up here pretty lady.”I raise my gaze to meet him again and I see a light gleam in them now. His eyes are a pale shade of green. Like leaves that have fallen and are gradually fading to brown. My tone is cold as I respond, “I wasn’t looking at anything else so there was no need for that.”He gives a smirk that tells

The doors open immediately and every activity in the hall stops. I freeze where I stand and I feel like asking to be shown the exit, but the fear and nervousness clenching in my stomach prevents me from doing so.I swallow to ease my suddenly dry throat and that low, ashy voice floats into my ears in a whisper as he asks, “Do you think they can see us?”I turn sharply to him and hide the light confusion that lines my face. Aside from the blank look in his obsidian eyes, I can see no other indication of anything on his face. I don’t know if he’s trying to be funny or if he’s just mocking me. When the side of his lips quirks up in a smile, I still can’t tell what he means by that. He stretches his hand forward and I leave it hanging instead of taking it.Working for Malachi has taught me not to jump headfirst into situations. If Malachi wants me to set up a meeting with some of the members of his board, I read his body language first and set the meeting based on what I can glean. If h
