The Billionaire’s Rival Contract Chapter 25: Are you gay?
BellaI leaned back against my office chair while reviewing several reports spread across my desk.A small sense of satisfaction slowly settled inside my chest as I examined every completed project.The company was growing far faster than anyone had anticipated, and our recent achievements had already begun attracting significant attention throughout the business world.Everything was finally beginning to fall into place.My team was thriving.Investors were becoming more confident. Our reputation continued growing stronger every single day.Still, despite all those accomplishments, my thoughts remained occupied by only one thing.Damien.I wanted him to suffer exactly the way I had suffered.I wanted him to experience what it felt like to lose everything that once felt secure.I wanted NovaTech to crumble before his eyes while he stood there helplessly watching it happen.The thought lingered heavily inside my mind.I lowered the report onto my desk before turning toward Sebastian.H
The Billionaire’s Rival Contract Chapter 24: Delusions and False Dreams
DamienA sharp pain shot through my entire body the moment I slowly opened my eyes.My vision remained blurry for several moments while an irritating beeping sound echoed repeatedly somewhere beside me.I blinked several times while attempting to understand where I was.The bright white ceiling immediately came into focus. Then the familiar scent of disinfectant reached my nose.I was in a hospital.Fragments of memories suddenly began rushing back into my mind.Anna confessing that she had lied.Her admitting that there had never been a pregnancy.My anger.My reckless driving.Then the blinding headlights.My chest immediately tightened.I slowly attempted to sit up, but a painful groan escaped my lips before I could fully move.My entire body ached with every movement I attempted to make, and bruises covered different parts of my arms and chest. Even breathing felt slightly uncomfortable.Still, none of the physical pain was currently occupying my thoughts because my attention rema
The Billionaire’s Rival Contract Chapter 23: In Debt
DamienThe evening had already been exhausting long before my phone suddenly began ringing.I barely glanced at the screen before answering the call. The number belonged to my bank manager.That alone immediately made me suspicious. Bank managers rarely called unless something serious had happened.I placed the phone against my ear.“Yes?”The man’s voice sounded cautious and slightly nervous.“Mr. Blackwood, I sincerely apologize for disturbing you this late, but an urgent matter requires your immediate attention.”My brows immediately furrowed.“What urgent matter could possibly require your attention after business hours?”He cleared his throat nervously before answering.“A substantial amount of money was withdrawn from one of your private accounts today.”My expression darkened almost instantly.“What do you mean?”The bank manager hesitated briefly before speaking again.“The transactions were authorized by Miss Anna herself. The amount withdrawn was extremely significant and it
The Billionaire’s Rival Contract Chapter 22: What Do I Do Now?
DamienThe gala had ended many hours ago, yet Bella’s words refused to leave my mind.No matter how hard I tried distracting myself with other things, her voice kept replaying inside my head over and over again.Her expression had remained calm and completely unaffected while she stood before me.She had not looked angry, heartbroken, or desperate for my attention anymore.The truth was. It was not her money that bothered me.It was not her status as an Edwards heiress either.It was certainly not the public recognition she was suddenly receiving. What frustrated me most was her complete indifference toward me.For years, Bella had always looked at me with hope. Last night, however, none of those emotions existed anymore.There had only been calmness inside her eyes and that calmness was somehow more disturbing than anger.The following morning, I arrived at NovaTech earlier than usual.My plan was simple. I intended to bury myself in work until those thoughts disappeared completely.
The Billionaire’s Rival Contract Chapter 21: The Bussiness Gala
BellaThe night of the business gala finally arrived. A strange mixture of excitement and nervousness settled inside my chest.I stood up slowly before making my way toward the closet.Several beautiful gowns hung neatly inside. My mother had personally arranged every option earlier that afternoon. I told her there was no need but she insisted. After dressing up and applying minimal makeup, I made my way toward the car. Sebastian already sent me a text earlier that he was downstairs waiting for me. The drive remained peaceful for several minutes. The city lights glowed beautifully outside the windows.Eventually, Sebastian broke the silence.“There is something I want you to remember tonight. Tonight belongs entirely to Bella Edwards.”I smiled back at him thankful for the encouragement. The car eventually arrived at the gala venue. The moment I stepped outside, I realized this event was much larger than I expected.The entire building glowed with elegance. Powerful business leade
The Billionaire’s Rival Contract Chapter 20: I Can’t Wait!
Bella The morning after the press conference felt nothing like my usual mornings. The moment I opened my eyes, my cellphone began vibrating endlessly against my bedside table.I reached over and picked it up before staring at the screen in surprise.There were dozens of unread messages waiting for me.Interview requests from television stations filled several notifications.Business invitations occupied another large portion of them.Partnership proposals from multiple companies continued pouring in. Even people I had not spoken to in years were suddenly trying to reconnect with me.I stared at the screen for several long moments.Then a soft laugh escaped my lips.Life truly had a strange sense of humor.For years, nobody had cared whether I existed. Now, suddenly, everybody wanted my attention.The irony was almost amusing.I placed my phone back on the table before sitting up slowly. My body still felt slightly weak from everything I had endured recently.Thankfully, my strength

DamienI stood near the entrance of the luxury boutique while absentmindedly scrolling through several unread work emails that had accumulated throughout the day.The number of pending notifications seemed endless.Ever since Bella left NovaTech, more and more problems had begun appearing one after
The Billionaire’s Rival Contract Chapter 18: Impatience
Damien I was sitting inside my office reviewing several reports when my cellphone suddenly began exploding with notifications.The sound became so frequent that it immediately drew my attention away from my work.One message appeared after another without stopping.News articles filled my screen.
The Billionaire’s Rival Contract Chapter Two: It wasn’t for me
Bella Wasn’t that bracelet meant for me?The thought struck hard, cutting through the lingering haze in my mind.When they finally noticed my presence, introductions were made with little fanfare. Anna greeted me warmly enough and soon afterwards everyone moved towards the dining room for dinner.
The Billionaire’s Rival Contract Chapter One: Why must you hurt me over and over again?
BellaGritting my teeth through the ache, I pushed myself forward, one slow step after another, my knees wobbling beneath me as I forced them not to give out.And then I saw my husband’s car and well, I couldn’t help it. My face lit up and just like that, all of it got a little lighter. I even quic
