~ ISLA ~

“What are you doing in my bedroom?”

The words slipped out before I could stop them.

Alistair turned his head slowly, a smirk tugging at his lips as if to tell me I had said something ridiculous. His fingers kept working the buttons of his shirt, deliberate and unhurried.

“Your bedroom?” His tone dripped with amusement, but his eyes were sharp. “This is the master’s bedroom, Isla. Why wouldn’t I come here?”

Heat rushed to my cheeks, my stomach twisting.

Master’s bedroom? Why hadn’t Char

  • The Billionaire's Unwanted Wife    Chapter 131 — She'll Live

    ~ ALISTAIR ~A chill froze me on the spot—I couldn’t move for a few seconds.My eyes were locked on the blood—it soaked through her clothes, trailed down her legs, and stained the floor beneath her. There was so much of it that it didn’t even look real anymore.“…Save the baby…”Her weak voice came again. It was barely audible, but it hit me harder than anything else in the room.My gaze snapped back to her pale face and trembling lips, her hand weakly pressed against her abdomen.Pregnant.. The word echoed in my head, sharp and disorienting.She was pregnant? My child?..I didn’t remember her. I didn’t remember anything that led to this moment. But standing there, looking at her like that—bleeding, breaking, yet still begging me to save the life inside her—it was as if something inside me was shattered.Even with all the confusing thoughts hitting me at once, my hands moved swiftly. The straps around her wrists came loose under my grip, then the ones binding her legs. I worked quickl

  • The Billionaire's Unwanted Wife    Chapter 131 — Save Our Child

    ~ ISLA ~“What the fuck!?”Markus’ angry and stunned voice echoed in the room.My head snapped toward where the sound came from—and my breath caught instantly.The bulky man had a hole in his chest and collapsed on the floor. In the next second, blood spread underneath him—dark and thick, pooling across the floor.My fingers trembled against the restraints as my vision blurred for a second. Cold sweat oozed from my body due to the continuous contractions in my belly. My strength was slowly fading.A moment later, I heard footsteps approaching—firm, powerful. Each step echoed like a countdown, sending violent thuds against my chest.My heart raced as I lifted my head—and finally saw hope.Alistair stood at the doorway, his hand wrapped tightly around the pistol’s handle. His expression was stony and cold. Ruthless. His rigid gaze locked onto the scene in front of him—and then on me.Everything seemed to disappear for a moment. And all that was left was us, staring deeply at each other.

  • The Billionaire's Unwanted Wife    CHAPTER 130 – He's Here

    ~ ISLA ~“You…?”My voice came out in a gasp. My eyes were still wide with disbelief as I stared at the man standing in front of me.Markus.For a long moment, my mind refused to process it. The last thing I knew—he was in jail. Alistair had personally made sure of that. There was no way he should be standing here right now.Yet here he was—free—and staring at me like I was dirt beneath his shoes.A slow smirk spread across his lips as he looked down at me.“Surprised?” he asked casually.A chill ran down my spine as memories flashed violently in my mind—the hotel… the fear, the helplessness…My fingers curled tightly against the restraints. I wasn’t familiar with this man when I first stepped into the Montgomery family. But one thing I knew—he might look harmless, but he was nothing less than a cunning man. Now, I had a vague idea why he had brought me here.I forced myself to breathe, trying to stay calm despite the panic rising in my chest.“Why did you do this?” I asked, keeping m

  • The Billionaire's Unwanted Wife    CHAPTER 129 – Find Me

    ~ ALISTAIR ~The car was quiet, but a slow tension was building.I sat in the backseat, one arm resting against the door while my other hand held my phone. The faint glow of the screen reflected in my eyes as I scrolled through the files Evan had just sent.A list of Liana’s recent activities filled the screen—her whereabouts, contacts, transactions.My eyes narrowed slightly when I found a series of deposits. Large amounts had been sent from an anonymous account multiple times.A faint scoff escaped my lips.“Still the same,” I muttered under my breath.Greedy. Opportunistic. Easily bought. Nothing about her had changed.I continued scrolling until another file appeared—a video this time. I tapped it open.The footage was taken from a distance, in a secluded resto bar. The lighting was dim, and the angle was poor. But that didn’t stop me from recognizing the person in the video.Even with just the silhouette, I already knew who it was.Markus.My jaw tightened slightly as I watched

  • The Billionaire's Unwanted Wife    CHAPTER 128 – Someone Took Her

    ~ ALISTAIR ~I was in the middle of a discussion with Mr. Chandler and Mr. Morris about the projections for my new project when my phone buzzed on the table.The screen showed my driver calling. I frowned slightly at the timing, but I didn’t pick it up.After the initial call, my phone rang again.My eyes snapped to it—the same caller.“I’ll excuse myself for a moment,” I said, picking up the phone with irritation.Emery opened her mouth to protest, but I only gave her a cold look before standing.The restaurant was a bit crowded, so I walked toward a semi-quiet hallway before answering the call.“Mr. Montgomery,” the driver’s voice came, slightly tense.“What is it?” I snapped, gritting my teeth.“It’s… it’s Madam, sir,” he stammered. “She’s missing.”The noise from the dining area seemed to fade. And suddenly, a vague ache formed in my head. I had heard that same line before—but I couldn’t remember where.“What did you say?” My voice dropped low as I pinched the bridge of my nose. T

  • The Billionaire's Unwanted Wife    CHAPTER 127 – Forgiveness Before Goodbye

    ~ ISLA ~The car moved steadily along the road, with the bustling city slowly passing by outside the tinted window.I sat quietly in the backseat, my fingers resting lightly on my lap. Without realizing it, a small smile had already formed on my lips.My mind replayed what happened earlier—Alistair’s expression, the way his jaw ticked like he was holding back his anger… the way he looked at me when I was with Simon.He was jealous. Obviously. Even if he denied it a hundred times. Even if he tried to hide it behind rules and logic.He was still reacting to me.Somehow, my chest felt lighter at the thought. This was the first time something inside me didn’t feel so heavy after a week of feeling like I was dragged through hell over and over again.I won’t deny the fact that I was becoming more hopeful—that there was still a chance between us.My fingers moved unconsciously to my abdomen, resting there gently.“Hang in there, sweetheart. Mom’s going to win Dad back,” I whispered under my
