Chapter 37

J’s POV

I paced around the room, running my fingers through my hair in frustration as the doctor examined Mira.

I shouldn’t have left her alone—especially with a monster like Rachel. What was I expecting from someone like her in the first place?

But how dare she? How dare she lay a finger on my Mira?

“She only choked on something. She’ll be okay,” the doctor finally said.

I looked up, narrowing my eyes at his statement. I had thought Rachel was the one who hurt her when I wasn’t around. That was part of the reason I called her a monster and treated her the way I did at the mall.

Guilt suddenly crept in.

“She just needs some rest and fluids,” the doctor added. “I’ve already given her a sleeping pill so she can regain the strength she lost. It’ll take a while before she wakes up.”

I watched as he took off his stethoscope and placed it in his bag.

“Thank you, doc,” I said.

“I’ll ask my driver to drop you back at the hospital.”

He nodded and left the room.

Now alone with Mira,

  • The Billionaire’s Little Monster   Chapter Fifty-five

    Chapter 55Author POVThe light in the room was dim. Jeffery sat on a chair, sipping from his glass of whiskey. A woman swayed her hips as she walked toward him.“Does that mean you’re slowly reaching the edge of becoming the CEO?” she asked.“Yes, Mother. In just a few days, I’ll eliminate J from the position and take over what’s rightfully ours.”A wide smile crept onto her lips immediately. “Your father would be so happy to hear this.” She turned from the bag she was stuffing with stolen cash and looked at Jeffery. “And what are you going to do about that girl?” she asked, curious.“I told you not to involve her.”“Are you seriously thinking of forcing her to marry you?” the woman freaked out.Jeffery glanced up at his mother, a lazy smirk forming at the corner of his lips. “I told you, I want everything J officially owns.”The woman sighed and slumped onto the couch beside her. “Just stay away from her. I don’t know why, but I’ve detested her ever since I first saw her at the rest

  • The Billionaire’s Little Monster   Chapter Fifty-four

    Chapter 54 Rachel’s POV My gaze immediately landed on J and I panicked. J looked at me, then back to Jacob, his eyes steel with anger. Anger flared in his blue eyes as he took in the scene before him. “You will do well to get your hands off my wife.” He said sternly. I immediately moved a few inches away from Jacob. But why on earth is he angry? I immediately adjusted, moving closer to Jacob. It wasn’t as if I did anything wrong, especially if it was him. I looked at J. “Jacob was my intended before my father forced me to marry you, and I’m sure you knew about him.” “And that gave you the right to be displaying that in front of here? What if it was someone else who walked up to you both?” He raised his voice. “You surely want to cause a rumor right? With the big headline, Jay’s wife was found in front of the Charlton mansion busy flirting with another man.” His eyes hardened even more. But he never bothered about that when visiting that girl, Mira. So Why would I o

    Chapter 53Rachel’s POVThe ride home from work felt longer than ever before. My hands were shaking, my breathing ragged. I had never been this worried.I dialed Jacob's number again, but it still wasn’t going through. It had been days since I could reach him — no messages, no calls, nothing. His calls were never connecting.I felt my life shattering into pieces. Father’s threat echoed in my mind, and I shivered even more at the thought of it. There was no way he did that. I stayed married to J, making sure no one found out I wasn’t Ellien.A sudden thought crossed my mind. I wanted to confront Father and ask him about Jacob's whereabouts. Did he, by chance, abduct him just to keep me under control?“Ma’am, we are here,” the chauffeur announced.I stirred and realized I was back at the Charlton's mansion. I paid the man and walked inside the house.I held my phone tightly. Father! The last word echoed in my mind, but I managed to ignore it and made my way to my room.In my room, I cha

    Chapter 52Author’s POVThe conference room at Charlton Construction Company headquarters was full. The top executives of the Roy Group, a huge foreign company, sat at one corner of the hall, all dressed in expensive tuxedos, their faces stern with no trace of warmth.Outside the company building, Jeffery adjusted his suit. As he made his way in, a confident smirk played on his face. His shoe heels clicked sharply on the marble floor as he headed toward the conference room. At the door, he paused, inhaling deeply with a smile before stepping inside. This was his moment to prove he could run the company better than J.“Ladies and gentlemen, I’m so sorry for keeping you waiting,” Jeffery apologized as he hurried into the room.The Roy executives exchanged glances, but Jeffery didn’t flinch and continued.“I know your time is valuable, so I’ll get straight to it. The Charlton Group has been a leader in the industry for years, and I can assure you—with this contract, we won’t let you down

    Chapter 51J’s POVThe morning sun poured through the massive windows of my study, but instead of warmth, all I felt was a deep, growing frustration.The events of yesterday had left a huge hole in my mind. They kept playing over and over in my head. Jeffery was getting bolder than I thought.He was smarter and faster—I didn’t even see this coming. Liam did, but we didn’t think it was going to happen this quickly.Jeffery must be desperate and thirsty for power to go after Grandfather like that, after all the years of acting gentle and stupid.“What are you going to do now?” I heard Liam’s voice from the other end of the call.“Are you just going to sit still? He’s ready to take you off the family seat.”I clenched my fist. I knew Liam was right. I couldn’t just sit back and watch anymore.I won’t allow him. I won’t let him win like his father did against my parents.“I doubt he can pull off what Grandfather wants,” I mumbled.I mean, it was almost impossible. I couldn’t even pull it

    Chapter 50Rachel’s POVI lay on the massive bed, scrolling through my phone, waiting for sleep to take over. I had no friends at all, so no one to talk to. The only numbers I had were Father’s, Mr. Frank’s, J’s, and Jacob’s—and Jacob hadn’t been picking up for days, making me wonder what was going on.I inhaled deeply, trying to rest my mind with a movie, but none came to mind.There are different things people do to ease their minds, but I had none. I had been cut off from the real world since I was born, so it was difficult to adapt now.I didn’t have a phone until I got married to J. My father never let me watch TV. Ellien was the only one watching TV and enjoying all the luxuries in the house, always surrounded by the friends she brought over.While I was still lost in thoughts of my past, a knock came on my door.“Come in,” I instructed.The door creaked open. I turned my head and saw Clark stepping into my room.“It’s time for dinner,” she announced.My eyes immediately went to
