Xavier~

What are we going to do now?

Her questioning gaze fixed on my face. Since I was also unsure of what we should do at this point, I looked at James' face to get a hint about our next course of action.

Jonathan and his shooters were staring at us with excitement, so I wanted to let him know that we were lawyers, not artists, and that I had no idea what I should perform when confronting them

James came up with the plan to alter our look to trick the gunmen, but Bella's obstinacy has caused us to follow Jonathan here instead. Jonathan's menacing grey eyes gleamed in the room's darkness, giving us the impression that we were standing in front of a ravenous lion within his den.

"What are you waiting for? My gunmen will shoot you if you don't perform soon."

Two large shadows caught my attention behind his chair. They loomed like silent sentinels, their sharp eyes never leaving us.

"Without music, I can't dance." I adjusted the tone of my voice and explained my incapacity to perform,

    Isabella~"I hope you have some solid evidence today to present in the court, Miss Luis."Uncle Joseph sat on his chair and turned to look at me before I got up from it to present the opening statement. The sensation of his piercing gaze on me made me feel even more anxious.I masked my nervousness behind my confidence so that Xavier would not feel demotivated by this case. Although I have evidence to prove Xavier’s innocence in court, Uncle Joseph is more focused on finding the real culprit than on Xavier’s innocence in Alicia’s case.My body tensed even more when I felt many gazes fixed on me as I got up from my chair.Xavier’s eyes fixed on me with hope and curiosity. Nathan looked at me with admiration and support. Uncle Joseph looked at me with anger and disappointment. But one more pair of eyes fixed on me—and that bothered me most: Lisa Morgan, my stepmother.She is a key witness in Alicia’s case, and Nathan is going to interrogate her in today's court hearing, according to Jor

  • Reclaimed by the Billionaire    Her New Strategy

    Xavier~“Xavier, if you dare to stop me from doing my work, then I will abort this child.” Her words are still echoing in my head.How can she say such harsh words? Does she not want this child?My heart had not recovered from the old wound yet, but she gave me one more fresh wound. I can't overcome what I saw on the pen drive, and now Bella warned me to stay out of her business. She didn't even discuss her strategies for this case with me.Alicia was betraying me from the beginning, but I didn’t find out. From the beginning, she was in a romantic relationship with Jordan, but I never doubted her. Today I am ashamed of myself for being so blindfolded in her love.I wish I could return to the past and erase every memory of Alicia. It’s a good thing that she died before I came to know about her real face. I would kill her this time without hesitation if she were still alive today.Angrily, I stabbed the cucumber with the knife until I noticed that the cucumber juice had soaked my finger

  • Reclaimed by the Billionaire    Threatening him

    Isabella~"Xavier, pass me the water bottle," I murmured in my sleep, feeling thirsty during my sleep.But Xavier did not pass me the water bottle, and I didn't feel his warmth when I turned to put my head on his chest. Feeling his absence on the bed next to me, I opened my eyes."Where is Xavier?" I sat down on the bed and searched the room for him.I turned to check the time on the wall clock when I noticed the sunlight outside my room.Oh god, how could I sleep until 8 in the morning?I immediately jumped out of bed when I saw the time. I have lots of work to do today, so I hurried to the washroom for morning rituals.I changed into a cozy outfit after taking a bath and exiting the restroom. I feel frustrated nowadays with tight clothes, and I like loose, comfortable clothes to wear—maybe because my baby likes such comfy clothes."Xavier." I came out of my room and called for Xavier, but he didn't respond to me.Where did he disappear to today?I looked for him in the kitchen and

    Xavier~‘Xa… Xavier, what are you doing in the backyard?" She stammered as she turned to stare at me in fear."Humm… Bella, what are you doing in the yard, climbing that bin?" I crossed my arms across my chest and looked at her with disappointment."I came to the backyard because our baby wanted fresh air." She put her hand on her belly and laughed nervously. Her shaking body and stumbling tongue indicated that she was lying to me."Bella, can you tell me the truth? Where did you go after jumping from the window?" I measured the height between the window and the backyard and a wave of anger washed over me. How could she do such a stupid thing? If she falls from the window, then it will harm our child, so how can she risk our baby's life?"Xavier, I am famished; please let me eat something." She turned her face down to look at her belly after hearing the grumbling sound of her stomach."All right, let's go." I sighed disappointedly and gestured to her to come inside the house."Bella,

  • Reclaimed by the Billionaire    Locked in Room

    Isabella~“Xavier, I want to go out, so open the door.” I pressed the door lock to open it so I could go out, but it was locked outside."Bella, I am sorry. I don't want to imprison you, but I don't have any other way to stop you from being involved in the court cases," Xavier replied from the corridor."What kind of childishness is this? I'll break the door if you don't open it," I threatened him.I don't understand why, after learning of my pregnancy, he acted in such a controlling manner. I mean, yes, he has every right to show concern for his unborn baby and his mama, but it does not mean that he will interrupt my work and order me to leave my profession."Bella, don't even think about it. If you hurt my baby even slightly, then I will file a case against you in court."His every word was filled with determination. He would surely complain about me if I attempted to break the door.Today I realized the biggest disadvantage of getting married to a lawyer. He threatened me by using

  • Reclaimed by the Billionaire    DNA Test

    Xavier~“What are you doing, Xavier?” She put her hand on her stomach and looked at me with confusion."Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you." I put my hand over her belly and looked at her with an apologetic glance."What did you just ask? Will you please repeat it?" When I heard her query, my body and mind were so shocked that my feet instinctively engaged the brakes, causing the car to abruptly stop in the middle of the road."Sorry, Xavier, I don't want to ask this question, but this question bothers my mind, so I thought to ask you." She fiddled with her fingers nervously."How could you even have such nonsense thoughts in your mind? Bella, you really hurt me by asking such a stupid question." I shook my head in disappointment at seeing her belly. I was surprised she would think I might question her character, especially knowing how committed she is to demonstrating her dedication."Xavier, I am sorry; I don't want to hurt you, but after today’s incident, I am afraid that in the futu
