Lahat ng Kabanata ng Forget About Me, Billionaire : Kabanata 61 - Kabanata 70

CHRISTY:Like a slow motion, I faced the newcomer. Mom. Compared to Dad, she became even younger from the last time I saw her. It looked like she did something to her body or went under the knife to become even more beautiful. What the heck was happening to her? She was not like this particularly when it came to her physical appearance. What if she would only spend the money on beautifying herself? For her own selfish reasons? "You don't have to fight our daughter."Mom scoffed. "Daughter? Why are you suddenly acting like a saint? You never wanted her, either. I remember how you said she was fat and was nothing to what you expected from your other child."Dad looked at me with a guilty expression…Funny how it was not painful compared to how Mom treated me. “If you did not want me in the first place, why did you even give birth to me?”Mom’s lips pressed into a thin line. “Why don't you ask your Dad? It was him who told me to have another child.”From the very beginning, I was

CHRISTY:My eyes darted to Everette whose expression darkened for a moment before it was gone. Will Everette lose the inheritance if he has a divorce? I never knew that might happen. I looked at Everette. How could he not tell me about that? And he agreed that we will sign the divorce agreement after six months? I did not believe he did not care about the money. He would lose a lot. “Good. We are already clear about that. That includes you, Everette, and Christina.” Clara watched me under intense stare and for a moment, I felt self-conscious. It seemed like my husband had been hiding a lot from me. First, it was Eden. This marriage and now losing the inheritance. “Everette? Christina?” Clara asked when not one of us had answered her. “Yes, Mom. My wife and I won't be getting a divorce.” Everette pulled my hand and showed it to the family. “My wife and I will be with each other until our death. I will not be the first one who will have a divorce in this family.” He pressed a ki

CHRISTY:Everette's forehead knotted, then laughed to cover the awkwardness in the air. "Love you? Why would I love you, kitten? I thought we already talked about your purpose in this marriage.""I love you, Everette," I confessed. “I love you, you hear me?”I wished the ground would swallow me whole when he only stared at me with a bewildered expression. Dammit. Was it a mistake that I confessed to him or not? Was it too soon? Everette and you had already known each other for a couple of months already. It was when we were in Swiped. My hands shook, and I wanted to run away from him and hide after this confession. But no. I won't be a coward and face him.My breathing labored. "Y-you love me? Kitten...why?"My feet went cold. That's the only thing that he could say? My explanation? "Why? You're asking me why I loved you? Isn't it obvious already? You're my ideal man. And you were right. You set a standard for me. So please don't tell me not to love someone else."I easily fel

CHRISTY:“You would be joining us?” I asked in disbelief. “Why?”My heart secretly swelled in happiness. The things Everetts and I could do while we were there. And I wanted to make sure that our wedding will be consummated. It was always long overdue. When I was already prepared to give him my body, would he accept me? Will he accept the fat me?“Everette does not have to answer your question, dear,” Clara interjected as if she did not want her son to change her mind. “We will inform everyone when the cruise will be. Thank you for all your warm acceptance of the invitation especially do my son, Everetts.” Clara raised her glasses for a toss. “I am already excited that my son is going to join us,” Clara squealed.Facing Everette, I asked, “Are you sure about this? Promise. I won’t take this against you.”“You don’t have to worry about anything, kitten. I will just finish everything.”“Are you sure?” I asked again. “Everette. You don’t have–”“Don’t change my son’s decision. And don’t

CHRISTY:My heart was bleeding and if only the blood could be out in a basin and be weighed it would weigh a lot. Everette never even filtered his words. The truth was...when it came to Eden, he looked like he was another person. And it fucking hurt a lot when he never considered my feelings when it comes to Eden.Why did all the men I chose to love were so complex? Could I love someone with a less messy life?“I never said that I want your love or you should reciprocate your feelings to me, Everette,” I said quietly. “I want to be clear on that.”His touch which brought peace to my chest became acidic, burning my body, and causing me a lot of pain. Still, I never bothered to break away from his touch.He heaved a sigh. “Just don’t... don’t order me to forget about her. It makes me mad. I’m getting sick of hearing it from my family and I did not want to hear it from you either, kitten. I brought you here because I thought you would understand what I felt.”You brought me here to infli
