Lahat ng Kabanata ng Billionaire's Mistress Is A Hidden Heiress: Kabanata 71 - Kabanata 80

“What do you want, Samantha?” Ace gritted his teeth as he walked out of the house to take her call. “I called to question your so-called upbringing based on which you won Aries’s custody case!” Samantha sounded furious. “Aries called me bitch! How dare he abuse his mother? Is this how you’ve raised my son?” “Our son!” Ace corrected her. “And he’s a thirty-year-old man now! Not a seven-year-old boy you left on the beach!” “Whatever! I want to speak to him. Ask him to pick up my goddamn call.” Samantha said and Ace drew a deep breath. His eyes traveled to Maria as she slid into the taxi. “Maria!” He cut off Samantha’s ranting and walked over to her. She stopped holding the car door and turned to him. “Where are you heading?” “Umm.. ah, just meeting some old friends over coffee.” She gave a tight smile and Ace put his hand over hers. “She just called to talk about Aries. Nothing else!” Ace said. “Of course! Aries connects you two, so it’s understandable.” She said. “I’ll see you la

“What do you mean?” Aries narrowed his eyes at Alfred and the latter chuckled. “I was playing this game way before you were even born! Did you think I opened up all my cards to you?” Alfred lifted an eyebrow expertly. “Focus on the well-designed speech, boy! Maybe it’s the last time you’re listening to her beautiful voice.” “Every girl says her dad is a king. But my father was an angel!” Veronica had a proud smile. “All his life he thought about the betterment of his people. His business was to bring a smile to the face. Every day, he’d venture out to do at least one good deed!” “Yet he had the most brutal death!” Alfred whispered into Aries’s ear. “Guess Jesus forgot to count his good deeds.” He sneered. Veronica drew a deep breath. It was the first time she could openly talk about her father, and she had so many things to tell everyone. “Today….” Before she could start, all the phones in the hall started pinging, and she watched people taking out their phones. “Three… Two… One!”

The car sped on the outskirts of the city. Cold sweat covered Veronica’s forehead and her body trembled as the speeding car led her to an unknown place. “You know I was in love with your mother!” She heard Alfred and her head snapped in his direction. “I wanted to give the world to her, but she chose your pathetic father over me!” he sneered. Veronica didn’t miss the underlying hatred in his voice as he continued. “She chose to live with her father in poverty where it was hard to manage two meals a day sometimes and I so fucking hate Shane for this! How could he propose to a girl when he has no money in his pocket to even fancy a dinner!” Alfred glances at Veronica. “And your mother was equally stupid for accepting his proposal!” He gritted his teeth and looked ahead. Veronica stared at him. “She was not stupid. She knew you were not worth it!” She said and Alfred glared in her direction, and the next moment he pinned her to the car door, his hand clutched her throat and Veronica str

[MATURE SCENE AHEAD] Minutes turned into an hour. Veronica watched Aries pacing in the room, deep in thought. “Can’t we call the company and ask them to open it for us?” Isla asked. “Why are we wasting so much time on such a petty issue?” “I checked with the company. They can open this only through Shane’s fingerprint!” Simon pressed his lips. “What could be inside the vault?” Aries turned to them. “And do we need to open it now? Alfred is dead, Cynthia is in jail, and we’ll get the chief soon. Veronica got her status back if we keep aside the humiliation because of the video!” “I want to see what had he stored in there!” Veronica’s words brought Aries’s attention to her. “Even if it doesn’t mean anything to anyone. It means everything to me!” “I think it’s Isla!” Simon said, and everyone looked in his direction. “Mr. Glazier has decorated her room on the first floor. This only explains he wanted her here along with Veronica!” Aries turned to the window, lighting his cigarette, a

Genelia ended the feud between Isla and her, realizing she was equally responsible for everything. “Thanks!” Isla collected her drink from the bar and turned to make a move to some quiet place when she bumped into someone. “You!” Isla was surprised to see Zenith a.k.a Liam. “Hey!” He smiled. “What are you doing here?” Isla sounded annoyed, and Liam was taken aback. “I…” Before he could complete it. Isla interrupted him rudely. “Are you following me?” “Isla, calm down! I’m not following you. Aries is my cousin!” He said. “So?” Isla lifted an eyebrow. “So is Genelia!” He added. “We are a family!” Isla pressed her lips, realizing her foolishness. “Of course, they are cousins, so he’d be here. It’s high time I stop giving so much importance to myself. The world doesn’t revolve around you, Isla Glazier!” she said in her heart. “Right. I’m sorry.” She nodded at him. “Isla Glazier is apologising?” There was a hint of surprise in Liam’s voice. “Excuse me,” Isla turned serious and wa
