Lahat ng Kabanata ng Billionaire's Pampered Wife: Kabanata 971 - Kabanata 980

"You're behaving irrationally because you've been provoked. You should know that better than anyone else. You've gone rogue now. Even if you can't relax, you should still act according to our plan. I've told you, as long as you and Waverly receive support from the public, there's a chance of the both of you reconciling. If you go over there now, the chances of you two getting back together will become negative. If you die, how will you protect her? Are you going to come back to her as a ghost?" Stella raised her voice at him. "I can't just sit back and watch while she's in danger. You don't know how much of a hellhole the Mccarthy family's place is. She's only twenty-six, and she should be at the peak of her life! She shouldn't be imprisoned in a dangerous place like that. The thing she fears the most is loneliness. I can't let her continue to stay there, so I have to convince her to leave," retorted Bellamy as he grew even more aggravated. "That's why we have to plan thing

"It's not like you're going to marry me, anyway. I'm already twenty-six years old this year, and I can't spend the rest of my life as a spinster, can I? I have to take the opportunity to find a suitable candidate while I'm still young. If I wait any longer, no one will want me," Waverly said with a sneer. Joseph stared at her and asked, "Do you really want me to marry you?" "Of course I do. I even remember telling you this before I came back," Waverly provoked him even further. "I'll marry you then," he said those three words in a matter-of-fact manner, making it clear that he wasn't joking. Waverly paused and felt her heart skip a beat. She looked at Joseph in surprise, trying to decipher how he truly felt, but she still failed. His eyes were like the abyss, nothing behind them. "You're not going to marry Madam Lenny's daughter already?" Waverly asked suspiciously. "I will, but I can get a divorce after that. Just give me ten years." Joseph sa

After removing her clothes, she stepped into the bathtub. Laying down, she shut her eyes. Although the water that enveloped her entire body was warm, she failed to feel its temperature on the inside. After laying in there for ten minutes, she got up from the bathtub. She didn't want to get any wrinkles from soaking in the water for too long. Stepping out of the bathtub, she wiped herself dry and changed into a pair of new clothes. Pushing the window open, a gust of cold air blew in. It was as if the cool wind cleared up her thoughts. People had their own obsessions, just like gamblers did. Once one thinks that since they've lost so much already, giving up would mean that they were admitting defeat. Therefore, they wanted to put all their hopes into the next round instead, and sink deeper and deeper into the spiral. Theoretically, everyone knew that the world did not work like that, but it was impossible for a person who had already lost so much to ju

"Madam, you look stunning," Hayley cooed. "There's always someone out there who's prettier than I am. I'm just average," Waverly said. Then, she walked into a perfume store and bought a jasmine and bamboo scent infused perfume. The jasmine smelled sweet, while the bamboo gave off a musky scent. The jasmine was pleasant to the nose, uplifting one's mood. Whereas the bamboo's muskiness could help one calm down. Apart from that, she also bought a few formal suits. To match with her straight, dark hair, she chose to wear a peach suit. She had never worn this kind of suit before. Looking at her reflection, she thought she looked 36 years old instead of 26. She had never felt so young before. By the time she was done shopping, it was already one in the afternoon. "Hayley, let's find something to eat. I need to head over to the Ministry of External Affairs later," Waverly said. "Okay, but if you're in a rush, we can head over t

"How dare you offend your superior!" Yasmine was furious. Waverly maintained the smile on her face, "If I'm your subordinate, then may I ask, who are your superiors?" "The country and our citizens." "So, in your eyes, the king is not your leader? Is he not above you?" Waverly shot back. It was then that Yasmine realized that she had fallen into Waverly's trap. If she said yes, that would mean her disobeying Mr. Harington's order was her offending her superiors. If she said 'no' and her actions reached the king, she would be committing treason. "You're sharp-tongued, I'll give you that. Of course, you'd be the best at playing tricks." Yasmine said sarcastically. "I'm not playing tricks. If I were any good at that, I would still be with the President. As for being sharp-tongued, shouldn't someone working in the Ministry of External Affairs possess such a trait?" Waverly said graciously. Yasmine was so furious that she grabbed a pen of
