CATALINA

At first, I tried to keep track of time. But after the sunset, it became impossible for me to do so. I was too weak and hungry to keep up, plus there was this constant distracting thoughts floating in my head, wondering who these men had been paid to kill.

Was it Chyna...or me?

A muffled voice drew my attention, snapping me from my thoughts. It was my sister-in-law, Chyna, who had her mouth stuffed after she nearly screamed the entire building in shock when she woke up. I tried to calm her down, but she refused to calm down and even dared to bite a man's finger when he tried to cover her mouth.

“Please spare her!” I begged when he cursed about his bloody finger and aimed his gun at her head. “She's pregnant. Please don't do this!”

“Does it look like I give a flying fuck if she is?” he growled. This one was different from the other one I'd spoken to in the morning. He had the eyes of a cold, hardened killer, and I knew without a doubt that he would put a bullet through her s

  • The Billionaire's Redemption Game    The Return Of A Family Member.

    CATALINA"WHAT?!"Yvonne's expression immediately morphed from nervousness to sheer panic as she shot up from her seat after hearing my words. Her eyes scanned mine like she was trying to figure out if I was bluffing or not, but everyone had already witnessed her brief hesitation. When she realized it, she schooled her expression back to neutrality and fake indignance.But I knew I had already succeeded in the first stage of my plan. Everyone was now staring at her with a hint of suspicion and curiosity as they watched the scene quietly.Even Conrad seemed a bit shaken by my words as he watched his fiancée slowly reclaim her seat by his side. Her hand reached for his again before speaking. "Listen, I don't know what kind of game you think you are playing, but I will not allow you to accuse me of such a thing-""Well, we both know I wouldn't have said such a thing if I didn't have any evidence, Yvonne," I replied, passing the document to Theodore. Once he was done, he gave it to his gr

  • The Billionaire's Redemption Game    Tension During Dinner In the Knight Mansion.

    CATALINAAfter three days, Theodore's grandmother summoned everyone for lunch.I knew this would not be a simple dinner when I saw Theodore sitting at the head of the table. His grandmother, Victoria, was seated right beside him while I sat on the other side. The air hung heavily, charged with heavy tension, causing even Henrietta and Dorothy to sit rigidly in their chairs, unease etched across their faces. Only Yvonne remained oblivious of the atmosphere, chattering away with Madeline, who responded with curt replies, her attention clearly elsewhere.It wasn’t until the maid, flustered and anxious, accidentally spilled the glass of wine across the white tablecloth that the uneasy silence was shattered. She flushed a deep shade of embarrassment, her hands trembling as she dabbed at the chaotic stain, her murmured apologies barely escaping her lips before she hurriedly retreated from the room. Yvonne dabbed her dress with a napkin after scolding the maid under her breath and then raise

  • The Billionaire's Redemption Game    Consoling A Small Kid.

    CATALINAThe next morning, Theodore sent all the information I needed to complete my mission. According to the file, her name is Yvonne and she had worked as his personal secretary. My anger rose when I discovered they had been dating two months before Chyna's death. Whenever I thought of Chyna, about how happy she seemed when she talked about her husband, all I wanted was to strangle that scumbag and dump his body in the middle of the ocean.But I had other plans. Excellent plans. That's why I allowed myself to heal first while observing the enemy. Yvonne was a simple, bubbly woman at the surface, always making everyone around her laugh, especially Conrad. But I could sense her cautious nature under every action, and her inquisitive questions did not go unnoticed. At first, I thought I was the only one who was on guard against the new woman, but soon I discovered that even Henrietta didn't seem too amused by her son's new woman.And I knew the reason behind her discomfort.Yvonne wa

  • The Billionaire's Redemption Game    I Don't Regret Saving You, Catalina.

    CATALINAI paced back and forth in the room, my foot aching with each step but I didn't let myself stop. Not when I just discovered that my husband's life was in danger and I was helpless to do anything about it. Who the hell was Gonzalez? Why did he want Theodore dead?I bit my lower lip, thinking about how to solve this problem. From the looks of it, it seemed that even Mateo was wary of this person, or else he wouldn't have called Theodore to warn him like this. This was someone that was far dangerous, a bigger problem than both of them could handle. I was so deep in thought that I didn't even realize when the door opened again. Theodore froze at the entrance, watching me pace back and forth with a nervous expression. After some seconds, he composed himself and walked straight to the bedside table to drop the tray of food before approaching me.“Catalina.”I jerked when I felt a touch on my shoulder. “What the hell—Theodore! What are you doing here?”My husband folded his arms a

    CATALINAI jolted from sleep that night, breathless and confused. It took me a while to remember my surroundings, and even more time to unclench my hands gripping the bedsheets. It was all because of that dream again, the one I'd been having since I'd been rescued. Dreams of me and Chyna in the warehouse. People shooting at us. Me stumbling down, unable to go forward and then the Chyna comes to help me. She gets shot by them, blood trickling down her head until she falls...I gasped loudly, pushing the memories away. It would do be no good to remember these things, not now when it was clear that I had things I needed to do. I pushed myself up and glanced around my surroundings, taking in the sight of the state-of-the-art medical equipments used for my recovery. Even the air didn't smell antiseptic like it should in a hospital room, but it was filled with a rich, lavender scent. “Theodore...” I muttered instinctively, lowering my gaze to the soft sheets underneath my fingertips. Of

  • The Billionaire's Redemption Game    Her Final Lesson In This World.

    THEODORE They had to be fucking kidding me. I stared at my grandmother in disbelief, wondering why the hell she was telling me these words. She was the one who set the rule that no one in the family was allowed to cheat on their spouse, yet she was granting them the permission to get married?“Grandmother,” I began, closing my eyes for a brief second to get some respectful words out before I lost my sanity. “Do you know what you are saying? She's pregnant for Conrad!”My grandmother didn't even spare a glance at the woman who was crying in my mother's arms. In fact, she also ignored Conrad who had been kneeling in front of her for the past thirty minutes, choosing to only communicate with me. “I can see that,” she said, her voice frail but firm at the same time. “She's carrying the bloodline of the Knight family. I have already confirmed it.”“That's it?” I asked, unable to believe what she was saying. “You're going to let them get married just like that? Without any repercussions?
