I kept tapping my leg against the floor, impatiently waiting for him in the private section of the restaurant.I checked my phone for the third time, then angrily dropped it back onto the table.Liam’s face flashed in my mind; his tired eyes, the pain in his voice when he told me he was leaving the country… all because of one man.Axel Reynolds.As if summoned by my thoughts, I saw him approaching from the far end of the restaurant.

Trapped To The Billionaire Devil Mr. Wagner
AxelThere was another question that had been prickling at the back of my mind.“Blake…”“Yes?”“Before Olivia lost her memory…” I paused, carefully choosing my words.“Did she ever mention having a young blind friend at home?”She frowned slightly. “A blind friend?”“Yes.”She looked away, thinking deeply.“Olivia wasn't really someone who loved mingling with her peers. She was always a little reserved. She didn't have many close friends, but she had a kind heart. So it's possible she did have someone like that in her life, but… I really don't know.”I sighed. “All right. There is one more thing I'd like to ask you.”Blake nodded. “Go ahead.”“Did Olivia ever bear the name… Anna?”The moment the name left my lips, Blake froze. Her eyes widened as she stared at me. For a few seconds, she didn't utter a single word.Then, slowly, she asked,“How do you know that?”Seeing the expression on her face, everything began aligning. Just one more piece… One final piece to complete the chessboa
Trapped To The Billionaire Devil The Name She Had Lost
Axel“I remember rushing to the hospital.” Blake's voice trembled as she continued. “I remember seeing my poor daughter lying there unconscious.”Her eyes glistened with tears.“It was the most painful sight I'd ever seen. She was so small, Axel. She looked so helpless, lying on that hospital bed with all those machines around her. I couldn't understand how something like that could have happened to my little girl.”My chest tightened as I watched her struggle with the memory.“Deep down, I suspected Carl had something to do with it. After everything that had happened, how could I not? But I had no solid proof. No evidence. Nothing I could take to the police or anyone else.” She swallowed hard, lowering her gaze.“So I had no choice but to stay by my daughter's side throughout her stay in the hospital, praying every single day that she opens her eyes.”“How long was she in the hospital?” I asked quietly.“Three whole days. Three days, and not once did Carl come to check on us or even
Trapped To The Billionaire Devil Blake's Revelation
Axel“Please, you need to listen to me.”Olivia's mother’s voice was hesitant, almost trembling as she sat beside me on the bench in the hospital garden, with her hands clasped tightly in her lap.“When I first met you,” she began slowly, “I didn't know who you truly were. To me, you were simply Olivia's boss. Nothing more. But then I found out that you were married to Jasmine… Carl's daughter.”Her voice dropped.“I really don't want any trouble. Those things happened so long ago, and honestly…” She exhaled shakily. “I don't want to go down that memory lane again.”My chest tightened.There was something in the way she spoke that told me this wasn't merely a story she was reluctant to tell. It was something that had haunted her.Something she had buried for years.Scooting closer to her, I reached for her hand and held it warmly between mine.“Please, ma'am.”She finally looked at me.“You can call me Blake.”I nodded and continued, keeping my voice gentle. “This is really important.
Trapped To The Billionaire Devil The Truth Hidden in Her Past
AxelOlivia lay motionless on the stretcher as the medical team rushed her through the hospital corridors.“Please!” I called out, following them without hesitation. “Please, just save her!”The wheels of the stretcher rattled against the floor as we hurried toward the emergency room. Nurses moved quickly around us, calling out instructions while another doctor prepared the doors ahead.I followed them all the way to the entrance of the ER, but just as I was about to step inside, Dr. David stopped me.“You can't go any farther, Mr. Axel.”My feet came to an abrupt halt.“What?” My eyes immediately went to Olivia. “No. I need to stay with her.”“You have to wait outside. We're going to take over from here.”My throat tightened. For a moment, all I could do was stare at Olivia. She looked so still.I swallowed hard.“Do everything you can to save her. Please.”“We will.” He gave a firm nod before disappearing through the doors.They swung shut behind him, and suddenly, I was left standi
Trapped To The Billionaire Devil When Everything Stood Still
AxelJust then, I started hearing police sirens coming from a distance. The police were finally here.Through the smoke and chaos ahead, something else caught my attention. Five black vehicles came rushing down the road, moving toward us.My eyes narrowed.For one terrifying second, I wondered if more attackers had arrived. Then the doors opened, and men in familiar suits poured out… My security backup.A breath I hadn’t realized I’d been holding escaped my lungs. We finally had reinforcements. Looking back at Olivia, I forced a smile.“You’re finally safe.”Her head rested against my shoulder.“We’re getting out of here.”She gave the faintest nod. “Okay…”I tightened my grip around her legs.The security team was already rushing toward us while Derek continued covering our rear.We were so close.Just a few more steps to get to the reinforcements. Just a few more seconds, and we would be surrounded by our people.Then Olivia would get medical attention.I would find whoever had done
Trapped To The Billionaire Devil Getting Her Out
Axel“Olivia!”I quickly dropped down beside her and reached for her shoulders.“Olivia, get up. We need to leave. Now.”She tried. Her palms pressed against the ground as she struggled to push herself upright, but the moment she put weight on one leg, a sharp cry escaped her.“Ah!” She immediately grabbed her leg, her face twisting in pain.“What happened?”“My leg…” Her breathing came out unevenly. “I think I sprained it.”My gaze dropped to her leg before returning to her face.A sprained leg.Of all times.Gunshots continued to tear through the air around us. The sound of bullets striking metal and glass mixed with the shouts of my security team and the terrified screams of people still trapped in the middle of the road.There was no time.Without thinking twice, I bent down and slipped one arm beneath her knees and the other around her back.“I’ll carry you.”“Sir!”Derek’s voice stopped me. He grabbed my arm and pulled me back slightly.“We need to leave immediately. I need to g

Jasmine My eyes instantly widened in shock. Did I hear that right? Did she really just say that? Vincent’s… first wife? Wait... No. That couldn’t be right. That had to be some kind of a joke, right? I looked at the woman standing in front of Axel… Sarah, who looked far too calm for someone wh

Jasmine Collete finally turned toward Eunice and cleared her throat. “Mrs. Heather,” Collete said smoothly. “Please forgive Jasmine’s behavior. She can be… overly enthusiastic at times.” She glanced briefly at me, her gaze cool and disapproving. “She sometimes forgets where she is and how one ou
