All Chapters of Billionaire's Captive: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

JOANNE-The night the women of the Ale-o house threw a celebratory party for Lisa was the night she died.Theodore didn’t seem to care about my frozen state. He continued speaking.“I hope you realize that Hardy is walking you down the same path. It’s all for his big investigation. He knew Lisa would never commit suicide. The police and a lot of powerful people were involved in this case, but none registered it as homicide. But suicide. Until he hired a private investigator who proved that Lisa’s death was indeed a homicide, A few days later, Hardy received a letter that came in an actual envelope saying everything Hardy has ever had will be taken away from him, no matter how much he renews them, and he or she will make sure Hardy never finds true happiness. Ever since that day, Hardy hasn’t remained the same. Because it all just proves someone was onto Hardy and gave Lisa a clean death with her unborn child.” Theodore paused to catch his breath.A little too soon, he continued.“

HARDY-Joanne's words struck me like one of those massive Fourth of July launches. I immediately turned to face her, and her sad eyes slapped something inside me.I should never empathize with this woman.I should not.I would never.“Is this a new thing? Spitting out crazy random things?” My voice was low but sounded harsh, just like I wanted it to. Joanne scoffed.“It’s not crazy, and you know it.” It was at that instant that I realized she was aware. She was fully aware of everything.I wasn’t sure where she got the information, but someone had informed her about Lisa and her death.The night she passed away after returning home from the party the women had organized to honor her pregnancy,.And it's possible that she believes everything that occurred with Lisa could happen to her as well.I would never let history repeat itself. “I don’t know what you heard, but do not believe anything, these women—“Bailey’s back.” She interrupted me.The situation left me utterly stunned.Tr

JOANNE.Hardy aggressively grabbed the upper folds of my nightdress before tearing it apart like it didn’t cost a dime.I shrieked, and my hands immediately went up to cover my unclad breasts.“What are you doing?” I tried to yell, but my voice came out weak, already infected with anxiety.“What am I doing?” He chuckled bitterly. Even with the room’s dim light. The intensity of his gaze, filled with animosity towards me, was unmistakable.His gaze had deepened to a shade twice as dark as usual. What was once delightful turned into something repulsive, making me wonder if he was even human.“What? You have nothing to do with me.” His voice sounded so painful that it almost made me regret saying anything.But I had to.This man had no heart.But he was drunk. I wish I could say all these with him sober.“Look at you,” He chuckled and examined me closely.There was a moment of silence. Endearing in the dreadful void of silence.His gaze was fixed on me.My body. To be precise,.His eyes

-JOANNE.“Good morning, Joanne." - I opened my eyes to see Trinity staring at me and grinning from ear to ear.It caused me to flinch.She was so close to my face.“Fuck!” I cursed and sat up. “That scared me!”“That’s mean. I’m not that pretty like you, but at least I’m not that bad to scare someone,” Trinity added, and I scoffed.She briefly glanced down at my body and cleared her throat.I glanced down at my body, and I gasped and immediately pulled the blanket to cover my nudity.“Since when do you sleep naked?” Trinity asked, picking up my shredded night dress and tossing it in the hamper in her hand.“Trinity,” I called, and she laughed.She picked up some parts of my shredded night dress and titled her head at it.“Was there a tiger in here last night?” She teased and watched me roll my eyes.“Look at you. You’re glowing!”"Okay, Tri, please stop talking!” I scoffed, and she laughed—a genuinely happy laugh that filled the air. It caused me to smile too.“Why do people always l

HARDY contd- Joanne was taken aback when I unexpectedly pulled her into a passionate kiss. However, I had no choice, as observers began to realize that we were on the brink of our arguments. I was practically devouring her jelly lips with her lip gloss, making them even more lustrous.In places like this, people niche over the smallest details of your life.They all seem to take pleasure in witnessing the downfall of others or revel in the chaos of a turbulent love life.But I wasn’t planning on giving any of them what they want.Not like I would like to give a darn about what they think about my life. But clearly, these are all for showsI didn’t like Joanne, and I shouldn’t. I would never.But I liked this. Joanne slowly reciprocated my kiss and her breath relaxed against my skin.My hands reached for her waist and I trapped them.I wasn’t a fan of PDA, but here I was. Joanne smelled incredible, and I felt like eating her existence this time, a combination of a soft flowe
