“Yeah… how long will it take to get here? I have a man who’s halfway to death and he’s staining my couch with his blood…” Lena’s voice trailed off as she paced her living room, her eyes never deviating from Julian who was sprawled out on her couch.

“Thirty minutes?” She pursed her lips. “You’re sure? I don’t want to have to kill him myself…”

A smile touched her lips at whatever the person on the phone said before she hung up.

“Are you calling your hoodlums to come finish me off?” Julian asked.

  • The Wife He Rejected And Humiliated Is a Billionaire CEO   110– Saved!

    “Lena?”“Mm?” Lena stirred on the waiting room couch she had been lying on. Her eyes were heavy, only half-parted as she blinked up at the silhouette of Julian standing over her.“Hey,” he whispered. His voice was a soothing, low murmur as he stroked the back of his knuckles gently over her cold cheek. “You shouldn’t fold yourself into such a small space. Your body is going to ache when you wake up.”Lena sat upright, rubbing her palms over her tired eyes to force herself awake. The harsh fluorescent lights of the hospital hallway made her wince. “Julian? What’s going on? Is the surgeon out yet?”“No. Not yet,” Julian said softly, the regret clear in his eyes. “But I’m sure he’ll be out soon. These procedures just take time.”Lena’s face fell. A shaky, deflated breath escaped her as she sagged back against the cushions, looking smaller than ever.Julian crouched down into a squat in front of her, forcing her to look at him. “Don’t look so discouraged, Len. You have a whole team of top

  • The Wife He Rejected And Humiliated Is a Billionaire CEO   109– I Will Rise Against You

    Antonio was lounging in the armchair of his father’s office, staring blankly at the desk, when the door finally clicked open.Luoni walked in, his expression impassive. He didn't even startle to see his son waiting for him. He merely paused, giving Antonio a cold, calculating look, before continuing toward his desk.“Did you already hear from Leo?” Luoni asked, tossing his coat onto a side chair. “Pedro called me. He said there is an emergency with Julian’s little boy.”“Ah…” Antonio’s voice was dangerously quiet. “Julian.”“Yes, Julian.” Luoni sat down, pulling a folder toward himself. When Antonio didn't reply, the older man looked up, his patience already thinning. “What is wrong with you?”“I don’t know,” Antonio said, tilting his head up. His face was a mask of cold fury. “Why don’t you tell me?”Luoni froze, his hands hovering over the paperwork. “Excuse me?”“I often wondered why Julian ran away from home," Antonio mused, leaning forward, resting his elbows on his knees. "I use

  • The Wife He Rejected And Humiliated Is a Billionaire CEO   108– Frantic (Leo and Antonio)

    Antonio drew his head back, caught off guard by the question. He blinked once. Twice. His throat tightened, and he swallowed hard against a sudden dryness.“What?” His voice was barely above a whisper, the sound lost in the space between them.“Your wife-to-be,” Leo said, his tone dangerously level. “She’s not really sick, is she?”“Of course she’s sick,” Antonio snapped, his brows pulling into a deep, defensive frown.A sharp, disbelieving laugh ripped from Leo’s throat—a distorted, ugly sound. It vanished as quickly as it came, his expression turning cold.“Are you going to keep up with the lies, Antonio?” he bit out, stepping closer.“What lies?” Antonio’s face morphed into genuine confusion, panic beginning to flicker in his chest. “I don't understand what you're talking about. If you would just explain—”“When she accosted us at the restaurant, she looked too healthy for someone with only a year left to live. So I looked into her.” Leo’s voice dropped to a murmur. “She’s not sick

  • The Wife He Rejected And Humiliated Is a Billionaire CEO   107– Then I’ll Leave (Leo and Antonio)

    Leo was just about to step out of his car when his phone vibrated in his palm.He glanced down, his chest tightening in surprise when he saw Julian’s name plastered across the illuminated screen. He hesitated for a second, then slid the button to answer and brought the phone to his ear.“If you’re calling to say you’ve fucked things up with my sister again, you better be prepared for what I’m going to do to you,” Leo threatened, gritting his teeth.There was a heavy beat of silence on the other end of the line before Julian’s voice finally came through the speaker.“Maybe I have fucked things up with her. I wouldn't really know until the dust settles,” Julian replied, his tone unexpectedly flat.“What dust?” Leo asked, his brows pulling into a deep frown.“Junior was taken by Jack.”“What?!” Leo barked, his grip tightening on the steering wheel.“Relax,” Julian cut in. “I already got him back. We’re at the hospital right now, and they are prepping him for his surgery as we speak.”“Fu

  • The Wife He Rejected And Humiliated Is a Billionaire CEO   106– Prepped For Surgery

    “Why did you have to speak to him like that!” Lena yelled. She scrambled up from the floor and threw herself at Julian, tearing her phone out of his grip. “What if you’ve provoked him? What if he does something to my boy!”“Relax.” Julian caught her by the shoulders, his grip firm enough to anchor her. “My people have Junior. He is safe.”“That’s not… that’s not possible…” Lena stammered, her mind struggling to process the news.“Breathe, Lena. Just breathe.”“I just don’t want anything to happen to my son,” she whispered, her chest heaving.“And nothing will happen,” Julian assured her. “I have him now. What hospital is his surgery supposed to be at? Your family hospital, I assume?”“Y-yes,” she nodded weakly.“Good. Now, why don’t you go and pick up Junior’s hospital bag? We need to be on our way.”Lena looked up at him, her eyes searching his face. “Julian… are you absolutely sure?”“I’m sure,” he said gently. “Don’t think about anything else right now. Let’s just focus on Junior.”

    “Lena! You better get that Julian Black to get his dogs off my back right now, or I swear to God, you will never see your son alive again!” Jack's voice exploded through the phone speaker, distorted, manic, and high-pitched.The air in the bedroom instantly turned to ice. Lena choked on her own breath, her fingers clamping around the vibrating device so tightly her knuckles turned a stark, bloodless white.“Jack! What is wrong with you?” she cried out, her voice cracking as she leaned over the phone. “Why would you do something like this? He's a child, Jack!”“Stop asking stupid questions and get those people off my back!” he roared.A deep roaring sound cut into the background of the call. Lena’s eyes widened, her chest heaving as she recognized the heavy hum of tires spinning at a speed.“W-wait… what is that sound?” Lena stammered, a sickening drop in her stomach making her dizzy. “Are you driving? Are you driving like that… with my son in the car?”“See? This is exactly why I do

    Lena woke up with tears and a splitting headache.For hours, she’d cried and cried and cried until she decided that crying would not save her marriage.
