I can feel Leo’s eyes watching my every move as I get ready to leave for the courthouse. It felt almost like a silent request for me to stay home and forget about the arraignment and Charlotte altogether. I grab my bag, filling it with my milk pump and storage containers. In the event that this took longer than expected, I wanted to make sure I didn’t lose a drop of my milk for the boys.

“I’m about to head out.” I say calmly as I fix my hair in the mirror.

“Are you sure about this?” I could hear the caution in my husbands’ tone. He wanted nothing more than for me to reconsider but my mind was made up. I needed to have some sort of control and face my fears.

“Unfortunately, I am.” I say as I walk over softly and kiss him softly. I then switch my focus to my boys in their bassinet. I lean down and kiss each of them gently. “Mommy will be back soon. Be nice to your dad.” I whisper softly as I touch their cheeks.

  • The Billionaire Husband’s Betrayal   Chapter 130: Charlotte’s POV

    After my little performance with my therapist, he quickly dialed the nurse to return me to my room. I believe his excuse was that I was tired and needed rest. He never so much as reached for his notebook or tried to analyze me. Not that I mind at all. Frankly, I like to think that this visit was far more constructive and beneficial. After being returned to my room, I laid in my bed planning. It was clear to me that this wasn’t the first time that my therapist slipped through the cracks in terms of temptation but it would be the last after he knew what it cost. In him fucking me, he’s given me nothing but opportunity, satisfaction and someone to manipulate. It’s be a shame for him to lose his license. I could almost read the tabloids now. ‘Local shrink dedicated to assisting the mentally ill turns to preying on them - fucking them like animals behind closed doors.’It offered beautiful leverage. Not to mention the throbbing I still felt after our little session as I watched the window

    I’m shocked to see Claire’s name illuminating my phone at nine o’clock. I look over at my fiancé sleeping peacefully with our daughter and decide to make a silent exit to the living room before answering.“Hey Claire! Is everything alright?” I ask quickly as I sit down on the couch. I hold my breath until I hear her respond.“Hey, I’m doing okay. How are you? How’s Starla and the baby?” She sounds calm and that alone allows me breathe.“They’re doing great. Starla is great at mothering and our little Scarlett is a dream. She’s so peaceful and kind. How are the boys?” I had gotten notice of her pregnancy and delivery by text and was asked to keep the information to myself. It never felt appropriate to call or text but now that she’s called, I wanted to know more.“They’re doing great. They’re only hitting three weeks so it’s been an interesting experience so far.”“I’m glad to hear it. I can’t wait to meet them.” The thought of both of us living healthy lives and having families warmed

    “Charlotte, the therapist would like to see you for your appointment today.” A nurse says as she walks in. Clearly this one hadn’t heard of knocking but no matter. The storm strikes just after tomorrow and that is more important to me than some lousy mannered paid help.I stand up from my bed without a word, pass a glance at the nurse and walk past her towards the door where, as usual, there were two male nurses waiting to escort me.“Hi boys. Let’s not keep the good doctor waiting.” I mock in an obnoxiously sarcastic tone as I make my way to my his office. “You’ve remembered the halls well from your first visit - very impressive.” The nurse says from behind me. If she were just a bit smarter, she’d realize that this wasn’t something to compliment, but it was something to fear. Too bad, I have no interest in her being so aware. It’s but a moment until we reach the handsome therapist’s office. I didn’t mind the idea of him. He has something that I liked - although I didn’t like the th

  • The Billionaire Husband’s Betrayal   Chapter 129: Leonardo’s POV

    Against my better judgement, I go back upstairs after walking Mason out. I know that entering our bedroom meant that I would some explaining to do. So I step into the room as quietly and carefully as possible. I sit down and decide to discuss everything with her. “Why do you want to go so badly?” It was a genuine question. Claire was never one for confrontation, especially when it came to Charlotte. I can remember how she’d squeak when she’d ask me not to go and how harshly I’d responded to her pleas. “I want her to know that I’m not backing down. What she did to me and our family is sickening and I want her to know how determined I am to hold her accountable.” Claire truly changed. She had grown the confidence to speak up for herself while staying with Jasmine but this was different. Having the boys has given her a sense of bravery. She wasn’t doing this for her - I can see it now. She’s doing this for them. She wants to protect them and prove that she can face the difficult thing

  • The Billionaire Husband’s Betrayal   Chapter 129: Claire’s POV

    After Mason takes his leave, I take a moment to stare at my husband. I was frustrated to see him diminish the importance of Charlotte’s arraignment. I wanted him to go as well. Not only was it a closure of sorts but it also shows her that Leo won’t have her. And maybe that would be enough for her to leave me alone.Would Charlotte begin questioning herself with the very same questions I’ve asks myself since my fifth wedding anniversary after she staged that accident?Do I deserve this?Why would someone do this to me?Is there something I could’ve done differently?Is this worth it?Is he worth it?I can remember the countless times that I lied awake at night and asked these questions over and over. Slowly, they engrained themselves in my memory and part of me, wants her to feel that same level of uncertainty. I wanted Charlotte to feel how I felt. To hurt the way I hurt - without an act of violence being the cause. To feel completely unsettled with every breath - the exact way that s
