SECRETS OF A BILLIONAIRE HUSBAND CHAPTER 49: ROBERT BANKS
The room was deliberately plain. A single table stood at the center, its surface clean and unmarked. Two chairs faced each other across it. The overhead light was not harsh, but it was focused enough to leave the corners of the room in a quiet, watchful dimness.Reagan preferred it that way. No noise, no clutter, and definitely no unnecessary details. Just truth or whatever version of it a man could be pressed into giving.He stood near the far wall, his hands resting loosely in his pockets, his gaze settled on the man seated across the table.Robert Banks did not look like a man who had just been chased and captured. There was no visible panic in him, no restless shifting, no immediate attempt to speak his way out of the situation. He sat with a kind of worn stillness, his shoulders slightly hunched, his hands resting against his knees.Age had touched him, but not gently. There were lines carved into his face that spoke less of time and more of consequence. His hair had thinned and
SECRETS OF A BILLIONAIRE HUSBAND CHAPTER 48: WHEN ABSENCE SPEAKS
The next workday carried on without him. It was a strange thing how quickly his absence changed everything. It made the atmosphere feel so off.When she came in, she paused briefly by her desk as her eyes drifted toward his office. The glass doors were closed, and the lights inside were off. He was not there.Rivera swallowed faintly and forced herself to sit. It shouldn’t have mattered. He had missed an office day on her first day here and she had been relieved by his absence. Besides, he was not the kind of man who needed to explain his movements to anyone, and certainly not to her.Still, there was something about the timing that made it feel different.She tried to focus on her work, but her attention drifted more often than she would have liked. What could he still be doing with her father until now, to the extent of missing work? The thought simply won't leave her mind.“Okay, this is weird.”Rivera looked up at the sound of Chloe’s voice. Chloe stood near her desk, a cup of cof
SECRETS OF A BILLIONAIRE HUSBAND CHAPTER 47: WHERE HE WENT
“Or are you looking for an excuse to go back to him?”Rivera did not answer immediately. She simply looked at him. Her gaze held his as though she was trying to understand not just the question, but the intention behind it.There was something in his expression she had seen before, but never like this, and not this direct or intense.This was his possessive side, and she knew that for men like Reagan, owning someone completely and not having to share them with anyone else mattered a lot for their ego.For a moment, it almost felt like she had misheard him, not because the words were unclear, but because of how naturally they had come from him, as though he had every right to ask such a question.“What does that mean?” she asked finally.“It means exactly what it sounds like,” he replied after a moment.Rivera let out a small laugh, but there was no amusement in it. “No,” she said, shaking her head faintly. “It doesn’t. Because you’re implying something, and I’d rather you say it clear
SECRETS OF A BILLIONAIRE HUSBAND CHAPTER 46: HIS TO COMMAND
Rivera came back to herself in fragments. Sound returned first, the low hum of voices around her, the distant clatter of glasses, the faint rhythm of music that no longer felt light or inviting but intrusive, almost mocking.Then came the awareness of her own body, heavy and unsteady, her fingers trembling faintly where they rested against the edge of something solid.And then, him. Reagan stood directly in front of her. He was not touching her or speaking to her, he was just watching her, as though nothing had happened.Rivera gasped again as everything rushed back at once. Her father.They’ve got him, she realized. She pushed herself upright and immediately demanded.“Why are you here?” Her voice was strained with something deeper than confusion.Reagan did not answer. His face looked completely guilty. She took a step closer and looked him in the eyes in a confrontational manner.“And who did they get?” she pressed. “Who were you talking about?”Still nothing.“Reagan, I’m talking
SECRETS OF A BILLIONAIRE HUSBAND CHAPTER 45: THE MOMENT BEFORE EVERYTHING BREAKS
Rivera had not realized how much she needed something light until she stepped into the evening air and felt the weight of the day loosen just slightly from her shoulders.It wasn’t gone. His silence lingered, stubborn and quiet, but it wasn’t suffocating anymore. Not with the restless anticipation building inside her.She adjusted her grip on her bag as she stepped out of the car, her gaze lifting toward the glowing entrance of the High Street VIP Bar. The building stood polished, its glass exterior reflecting the last stretch of daylight while warm lights flickered to life inside.For a brief second, she hesitated. Not because she didn’t want to go in, but because of everything waiting on the other side: Luke, her father, the truth.The inside was alive. Low music hummed beneath the sound of laughter and conversation. The space was designed to impress. It had sleek finishes, warm lighting, and an effortless kind of luxury that didn’t need to announce itself loudly to be noticed.Rive
SECRETS OF A BILLIONAIRE HUSBAND CHAPTER 44: HE DOESN'T CARE, OR DOES HE?
Reagan Royce did not believe in coincidences. Not in business, not in people, and certainly not in reactions that arrived too quickly and too precisely to be dismissed as nothing.All day, he replayed the previous afternoon more times than he cared to admit. Not the conversation itself, he remembered that with exact clarity, but the details around it.He had seen fear and lies before. What unsettled him was how controlled hers had been.Reagan stood at the head of the conference table, one hand resting lightly against the polished surface, the other holding a tablet he had not looked at in the last ten minutes. Across from him, Daniel was speaking, something about quarterly projections, adjustments, minor discrepancies, but Reagan’s attention was elsewhere.His gaze lifted, almost involuntarily, to where Rivera sat. She was composed. Of course she was. Her posture straight, her pen moving steadily across the page as she took notes. There was no visible outward sign of distraction. To
SECRETS OF A BILLIONAIRE HUSBAND CHAPTER 37: DESSERT
Reagan arrived without announcement. One moment the table was loud with overlapping cheerful conversations, and the next moment, everyone was gazing at him, surprised that he showed up. People adjusted their posture quickly like they were back at work.He wore a dark suit without a tie, the top but
SECRETS OF A BILLIONAIRE HUSBAND CHAPTER 36: THE WELCOMING DINNER
The restaurant Daniel had chosen sat on a lively street in Manhattan. The design was minimal and elegant, but the bill was far less than that of Justin's restaurant.The meal she had shared with Reagan there had cost a fortune. When she saw the check, she wished she had looked at it before ordering
SECRETS OF A BILLIONAIRE HUSBAND CHAPTER 35: HIM AGAIN? WHO IS HE?
Rivera let out a breath she did not know she was holding. Her face lit up in genuine relief. She presses a hand briefly to her chest, laughing to hide the quick jump of her pulse.“You really need to stop sneaking up on me. I’m beginning to think it’s a habit,” she said.“I walked in a straight lin
SECRETS OF A BILLIONAIRE HUSBAND CHAPTER 34: GIRLS NIGHT AND UNWANTED SPOTLIGHTS
Rivera saw Lina before Lina saw her. She was standing under the yellow wash of a streetlamp, her handbag hanging loosely from one shoulder. Rivera had just left the estate to the address that Lina had texted her to meet up before their hangout. Reagan was not around so she left him a note in his s
