The Billionaire's Heiress Returns のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 41 - チャプター 50

AURORAIt has been a couple of days since we found out Kent has been released from his so-called prison and in that time, he has been able to be employed in Crane’s Industry, making him my competition. Andre was so pissed about it. He wanted to march down to the courthouse to demand what happened.“It’s no use Andre,” I said to him, softly. I get how he is feeling. If my attacker was released from prison, I would have a hard time, coming to terms with it.“I just can’t believe Jacob would do something like this, poach Kent,” Carina said with disappointment in her voice.“Yeah,” I said softly, clicking my pen on the table.“We need to respond,” Madeline who hasn’t said a thing spoke.I chuckled, “this isn’t the Mafia, Madeline. They didn’t steal our cocaine,” I said to her.“But they might have. An employee who made threats against you and attacked another employee, almost sabotage a deal was just given a free ride by Crane’s Industry. It might be a call to arms,” she said. I looked a

JACOBThe rain seems to be pouring heavier than the weather forecast predicted. I'm supposed to be on my way down to a construction site but I can't. I'm stuck at home with my mother and sister, who seem to be having a time of their lives by making mine miserable.“Mom, I told you. I'm taking a break from Katherine because I can and I want to,” I said to her for the tenth time.“What do you have against her?” She asked and I cast an annoying look at her “What do you mean by what I have against her? Huh?” I asked, because I don't seem to understand why she is always supporting her even after we found out Aurora wasn't behind the jewelry theft.“What does she have on you, Mom?” I asked and my sister Amy chuckled.“Something funny, Amy?” I asked her and she pouted.“She doesn't have anything on me. I just think that you should be kind to her considering what she has on you,” she said, turning the tables around.“I can handle myself mother but I'm not sure you can,” I said to her firmly

CARINA“Shit,” I stared at the “no access,” notification on my laptop and grumbled at the sight.I have been on this for the past few weeks, I have been able to breach some firewalls but this seems to be eating at me.I promised Aurora, I will get whoever is trying to manipulate her. Whoever is behind this money trail is our best bet. I took my laptop with me and headed to the kitchen. I need more coffee. I stared at the pot on my bed stand.“This is a lot of work,” I said to myself as I got to the kitchen. I got to the coffee pot in the kitchen and it was empty.I ran my fingers across my hair and stared at the big large cup.The doorbell rang and I raised an eyebrow and checked my phone for the time. Aurora isn't arriving until an hour later and Andre is out of town. Maybe she decided to skip the party after all.“Aurora, why aren't you at the party?” I asked as I opened the door to see an unwelcome face.“Jacob,” I cleared my throat, “what are you doing here?” I asked him, trying

AURORAI have been crawling up in my room since Carina's kidnapping. I couldn't shake off the feeling I was being watched ever since that day and it's giving me the creeps.It's bad enough that Diego is back in my life but I have to watch Jacob and Carina work together to figure out where he is.We still haven't heard anything from the police about some of the evidence we found where Carina was held, thankfully we took pictures.I stood up from my bed and headed to the bathroom, I slashed some water on my face and stared at the mirror.“You need to eat something,” I heard Diego's voice and I turned around, only to see myself in the very dark room he kept me all those years ago.“I won't until you tell me what you want from me,” I said, firmly at him.“Honestly, nothing really. I just want to be close to you,” his hands trailed my cheeks and I could still feel the chills down my spine.The part of town where I stayed in Spain was scared of Diego, I didn't realize that at first until he

AURORAThe artwork was placed at the entrance of Clinton's Empire company building. A lot of cars had passed and nothing seemed to be amiss.We are all locked up in the security room while my security guards along with Jacob's surround the streets.“Why hasn't anyone made a move?” Carina asked, I was just asking myself the same question.“We just need to hold on for awhile, someone will notice then Diego will notice,” Jacob said but Carina wasn't buying any of it.She exhaled loudly and walked away from us, I nudged at Andre to keep her company and calm.“If this doesn't work I just let everyone know I have a million dollar painting and they will come for it,” I said out loud.“You could put it in a museum,” Jacob said.“You are joking,” Madeline interrupted me from speaking.I placed my hands on my lips and in front of her, “it's okay Madeline, I got this,” I said to her.“Wow, she is protective,” he said.“Well, she has her reason,” I said to him, remembering what she had told me du
