The Billionaire's Ultimatum CHAPTER SEVENTY SIX
XAVIER The bell above the door hadn't even finished its cheerful chime before the atmosphere in the coffee shop died. It wasn't just my size or the way my clothes and security team fanned out behind me like a shadow cabinet. It was the heat coming off me. I moved to the... hipster morning customers as they parted like the Red Sea. I didn't see the menu boards or the line of people waiting for lattes. I only saw the back of Vanessa's head and the pale, frozen mask of Laura's face across from her. Every step I took felt like a hammer striking against the floor. The viper wasn't at the gate anymore. She was sitting at the table, pouring poison into my wife's ear. And the restraint I had practiced for years snapped like a dry twig. I couldn't believe it. It all came to me like a sickening clarity. Everything had fought, found every way, scanned through every corner just to find out who exactly was trying to come in between me and my wife, and she was right there, taking each and every s
The Billionaire's Ultimatum CHAPTER SEVENTY FOUR
LAURA Within a few minutes, I already arrived at Juniper's house, ready to settle down. “Stay away from Xavier for good. Until he realizes his mistake. Until I know who exactly he is. Until I'm able to clear my head from all these secrets he keeps from me.” Because I don't think staying under the same roof with him is going to work. And even his brother said the same thing.I sat down eagerly in her room as she made her way towards me with her wine and cookies. “Sorry, I don't really cook, but I promise you, I am quite an entertainer. You can tell me everything you want. It stays between the both of us,” she said.I couldn't believe ever in my entire life that I would actually be staying with Juniper. And to even put it in the right place, Juniper was rich. She was so rich. I never knew. I always thought, yes, their family was well-off. But this? I don't think I can call this an ordinary way off. Because her apartment alone was awesome. And the fact that she owns multiple companies
The Billionaire's Ultimatum CHAPTER SEVENTY THREE
XAVIER What was Xavier really negotiating with her? And why is he lying to you about it? She immediately turned to me, the phone shaking in her hands. “Is this real?” she asked, her voice barely a whisper. “Were you with her that night? Were you meeting with Alexis's family behind my back?”I opened my mouth to explain, but Laura held up her hand. “Don't. Don't tell me it's complicated or it is for my protection. Just tell me the truth. Did you meet with Elaine?”I woke up the night you said you were at a warehouse. I went silent, my silence an answer enough as I could feel Laura’s distance towards me, like something was breaking in her chest. “Get out,” she said quietly. “Get out of my room right now.”---LAURA I watched as Xavier made his way out of the room. And I just sat there, not knowing what to say, how to think. My hands still shook. The video replayed on and on, and I was not able to do anything but feel disappointed, heartbroken. I can't still believe this. I can't b
The Billionaire's Ultimatum CHAPTER SEVENTY TWO
XAVIER The silence that followed her words was louder than any argument we had ever had. “I almost believed this email over you.” Her words felt like a physical strike, a cold blade sliding between my ribs. I watched her hand, the one I was holding too tightly, tremble as she tried to pull away. I knew I shouldn't let go. I knew that forcing her to stay was only feeding the monster of doubt she was currently battling with. But the thought of her walking out that door, living a lie, was more than I could stomach. She wasn't just angry; she was mourning the trust she thought we could finally solidify, and I had no possible way of making her understand.My gaze went back to the photos she held tightly. “The meeting in those photos isn't what they look like, or rather they are, but the context is important.” I have been quietly working on consolidating power, on utilizing threats to Laura before they can fully materialize. But explaining that means revealing just how many people stil
The Billionaire's Ultimatum CHAPTER SEVENTY ONE
LAURA I wanted to stay in that second forever. The second way Xavier admitted he loved me and the world finally felt sturdy, I wanted to memorize the way his eyes looked, wet and honest. But the nightstand erupted with a redeem him, and I watched the honesty in his gaze flicker into something sharper, something guarded. “Ignore it,” I whispered, desperate to crawl back into the safety of his hands. But Xavier was already moving. The vulnerability was being tucked away, replaced by the man who was always looking for the next straight.“It’s late, Laura. Someone is trying very hard to get a hold of you.” Then he handed me the phone. The screen was a white glare in the dim room. One email, no sender's name, just a subject line that felt like a slap to the face: “You deserve to know the truth about your husband.” My fingers hovered over the delete button. “Posivia saw my hesitation. Open it,” he said quietly. “No more secrets.”I slowly opened the email and my breath hitched. At th
The Billionaire's Ultimatum CHAPTER SEVENTY
LAURA I knew I should send Xavier away.Should protect myself by maintaining safe distance after our fight, after everything he had done and how hurt he made me feel. Should build my walls so high that he couldn’t hurt me again. But I was so tired. I was so tired and so sad. And the truth was I didn’t want to be alone.When Xavier climbed into bed behind me and pulled me against his chest, I let him. Even as tears continued to slide down my face, part of me wanted to push him away. I just couldn’t.Eventually, exhaustion won and I drifted off, still wrapped in his arms.When morning came—or what passed for morning since we’d barely slept—neither of us moved.The sun was just starting to filter through the curtains, painting the room in shades of grey and gold. I could tell Xavier was awake from the change in his breathing, but I didn’t want to acknowledge it yet. I didn’t want to ruin this quiet peace we found in the night.Finally, he spoke, his voice rough and raw in a way I’d ne
The Billionaire's Ultimatum CHAPTER TWELVE
LAURAI blinked slowly as I took in the view through the floor-to-ceiling window of the living room.It was early in the morning, the sun was just beginning to stretch across the sky, pale gold bleeding into blues. I wrapped my robe tighter around me and held onto the coffee I had made for myself.

XAVIER“Where did Laura go?” I asked when I was done with my call. Juniper rolled her eyes and Lucas pointed towards the bathroom.“She didn’t seem okay, you might want to go check up on her.”I sighed, following his directions to the closest bathroom down the hallway. “Hey Laura, you in there? Lu

XAVIERI followed Laura back up to the penthouse, watching her shoulders tremble slightly with leftover tears she was trying to hide. The elevator ride was silent except for her occasional sniffles, and I found myself painfully aware of how uncomfortable I was with the whole situation.Emotions we

XAVIER “Right this way sir,” the chauffeur gestured to the elevator and I gave him a slight nod before entering.When the metal doors shifted to a close, I released a breath I hadn’t even realized I was holding.Tonight, I was meeting with the heads of the other families in Chicago at the China tw
