All Chapters of The Billionaire's Mistress (ENGLISH): Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Chapter 70 "FRANC—" Heart couldn't finish her sentence as Franco suddenly kissed her, his hand holding the back of her neck tightly. "Kiss me back or I'll stab you, mistress," he said with an angry tone, and her entire system froze with fear. She let out a whimper and was trembling. She held onto his shoulders while closing her eyes, obeying his command though she was retching. Franco grinned with a sound, and she couldn't move while she felt the weapon against her back. "Get in," Franco commanded, his arms still wrapped around her, and the knife hidden. "Franco, please, don’t" she begged with tears in her eyes. “You thought I didn’t know? You’re just like my mother, always chasing money. You kept denying my offer, but you just want a married billionaire, huh?” He grinned with an insulting look. “Ma’am Diana has been closely watching her husband to make sure she wouldn’t be caught running after Enrico Mariano. It’s really lucky that you’re part of their story. My boss wanted to

Chapter 72 Lux laid Diana's baggage down as they arrived in Manila. He watched her for a moment and then turned away. "W-Where are you going?" She followed him, almost gasping when she saw her clutching her stomach, as if in pain or something like that. Deceitful! "I have something to attend to," he replied flatly, taking big strides, but she still trailed behind. "I'm coming with you." "Bed rest," he said, but she grabbed his arm, making him stop. "Just stay here. The baby might be in danger. I'll take care of the annulment because the lawyer called." The lawyer did indeed call, and now he had something new to throw at his old in-law of him, the deception Diana had subjected him to. That was another grievous reason for him to pursue and win the annulment, but that wouldn't be his priority. He would go to the restaurant and talk to Gigi. He would go to the townhouse and conduct his own investigation. Yes, he was angry, but he would give Heart a fair fight, just as he did with

Chapter 74 After Heart filed her police blotter, she walked with her mother to the rural health center, passing by Lumeng's aintances at the market. "Hey, look who's here, your rich daughter, Lumeng!" A woman of her mother's age greeted them with a smile. "This is my daughter, Juling," her mother introduced her. "Do you want to take over this eatery, including the equipment? It's a good business. You'll have instant customers with the tricycle drivers around. I'm selling it,” the woman told them. Heart examined the eatery and it looked decent. It was situated near the cabs terminal, which meant customers were guaranteed. In these times when her father couldn't farm anymore, they needed to have an income, and she would apply for jobs in shopping malls, even as a saleslady or cashier. "How much are you selling it for?" She inquired about the income potential. "Twenty thousand, but I can go as low as eighteen. You won't have to worry about anything here. You'll just have to pay t

SC1Heart spread a mat on the cement floor. Even though the house's floor appeared older and had some cracks, it was very clean, and they had applied floor wax to it. She laid the mat and put cushions and pillows on it."Let me," Lux told her, with a hint of nervousness in her movements. Perhaps he was worried that she might hurt the baby inside her belly."I've got it; you don't know how to do this," the young lady replied with a smile as she arranged the sleeping area.Lux insisted, "You might get tired. This is good enough."Lux was tired from the journey and was considering lying down without a mat. There was something else he wanted to do, but it wasn't possible. There was no private room in Heart's house, and he was afraid of disturbing the entire neighborhood if she made too much noise.He helped her stand up and seated her on a wooden chair, and she leaned back immediately."There you go," he said because it seemed like she had just escaped exhaustion.He was about to sit next

SC 3"Heart Chavez is really back!" Aiza exclaimed as Heart entered the apartment late that night. They had returned to Manila after their short trip, carrying bags with them filled with souvenirs from Bicol, which Lux personally chose for everyone.Almost an entire van was packed with local delicacies and various souvenirs for their friends and family, and they had spent nearly an entire day wrapping them all up.Heart glanced at the door and saw Lux standing there, silently observing."Just a moment," she said and Lux nodded in agreement."I doubt that. We will spend three days here chatting," he commented, crossing his arms over his chest and leaning against the door frame.“We never knew that Sir Lux's jokes were true,” said her friend.He chuckled, "You didn't take me seriously when I said it."They all laughed.“I’m sorry if I didn’t tell you. I’m also ashamed of my past. I guess I was just lucky that I was loved by that man,” she said to her friends.She hoped that they w
