THE BILLIONAIRE'S RELUCTANT BRIDE CH.143
EVANGELINE"Evangeline!" The sound made my limbs freeze and my heartbeat accelerate."He found me." My words came out as a whisper.Thaddeus stroked the back of my hand. "It's okay. I'll handle this.""Evangeline! I know you're in there! Open this door right now!" The pounding on the door increased in intensity.Thaddeus walked toward the door and opened it.As expected, Gael's frame filled the doorway, his presence overwhelming.He rushed into the apartment like a man possessed, looking disheveled.When his eyes found me, I could see the buried anger flowing behind his dark irises, mixed with something that looked dangerously close to relief.He walked toward me with quick, determined steps and I curled up on myself instinctively.I was surprised when he pulled my body upright and enveloped me in his embrace, pressing me to him.He buried his face in my throat, and I could feel the trembling of his body against mine.He wasn't angry. He was terrified."Why do you keep doing this to m

EVANGELINEThe journey through the hospital corridors felt like a funeral procession. It was my first time entering an operating room, and the sight was overwhelming.The amount of equipment, monitors, and surgical instruments made my heart race.The room was blindingly bright, with multiple overhead lights focused on the operating table. Every surface was stainless steel and gleaming white."Don't worry, ma'am. Everything will turn out well."I looked at the nurse who had spoken and nodded nervously, though her reassurance did little to calm my racing heart."Wait a minute!" I quickly objected when they began preparing the anesthesia.The nurse looked at me with surprise.I straightened my upper body and looked between the two medical professionals."Can I use the bathroom?"When I saw rejection beginning to form on her face, I added quickly, "Please.""I'm sorry, but this is really not possible. Your operation will begin in just a few minutes, and the doctor will arrive any moment."

EVANGELINEI opened my eyes drowsily when I sensed movement near me on the bed. I was unsure of when I'd fallen asleep or how long I'd been unconscious.Gael moved closer and enveloped me in the warmth of his embrace without asking permission.He patted my back with slow, rhythmic strokes and his voice came out in hoarse whisper, "Go back to sleep."I rested my cheek on his chest and listened to the steady rhythm of his heartbeat. The sound was comforting, hypnotic.My eyes closed again, allowing Gael's presence to bring some measure of peace to my troubled heart.-~The next morning~"Evangeline."I woke to the sound of Gael calling my name with unusual urgency.The tone was different from his usual measured cadence. It carried a note of tension that immediately put me on alert.I forced my heavy eyelids apart, catching glimpses of his face through the narrow slits.There was something different about Gael's expression."You need to get up." He stroked my hair while sitting on the ed

EVANGELINEMy gaze stayed stuck in the void as something dark floated through my mind. The thoughts were becoming harder to ignore, harder to dismiss as temporary weakness."My illness has eased the burden for me." I spoke again in a low tone that barely carried across the kitchen.There was something liberating about having the decision taken out of my hands, about knowing that the universe had provided its own solution to my problems.Gael slammed a plate forcefully into the sink and I flinched.He was giving me his back, so I couldn't see his face clearly, but I could read the tension in every line of his body.His shoulders were rigid and he gripped the edge of the sink with enough force to turn his knuckles white, bending his neck downward as if the weight of his thoughts was too much to bear.Then he let out a loud sigh that seemed to release some of his pent-up frustration."Stop treating this like it's some kind of game." He turned toward me, and I could see volcanoes of anger

EVANGELINEGael drove toward his penthouse in complete silence.My mind and heart were fighting an intense internal battle that had no solution. My heart was pushing me toward the edge of despair and self-destruction, while my rationality refused to give in, leaving me stuck between the two like a bridge under too much weight.These heavy emotional chains were getting tighter around my limbs with each passing hour, making even simple movements feel hard and exhausting. It was like the entire world had closed in around me until it couldn't hold the size of my pain anymore.How would I face everyone now?I didn't want to see those looks of pity directed toward me, the careful expressions people wore when they encountered someone whose life had become a cautionary tale. They would only increase my pain and confirm that I really had become someone with broken wings, unable to fly or even walk properly through the world."Aren't you going to get out?" Gael's voice cut through my spiraling

EVANGELINEThe person was partially concealed behind a parked car.Who was it and why inform my parents of our location? The question was answered almost immediately as the figure stepped into clearer view.Seraphina.She closed the distance until she was directly across from us with the widest, most satisfied smile spread across her face. The look of someone who derived genuine pleasure from other people's pain and suffering.Gael followed my gaze and his jaw tightened when he spotted her. He reached for the door, but I stopped him.My breathing turned ragged with fury as anger flooded my system. My gaze involuntarily landed on a pen in the car's center console and I picked it up without hesitation, my fingers wrapping around it with deadly intent.With that, I climbed out of the vehicle, walking toward her with sparks flying from my eyes, every step fueled by rage that had been building for far too long.The months of cruelty, the snide comments, her attempt on my life… it all cryst
