CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE
Cripple Billionaire Husband /Joy Richards
Lauren's car rattled through the industrial district, the dashboard clock ticking toward twelve midnight. Her hands continued to shake on the wheel, the USB drive and her childhood camp photo stuffed in her jacket, haunted her thoughts every second.That text “Warehouse, midnight. Proof he did it. Come alone” burned in her brain like acid, her mom’s frail hospital smile haunting her. Alex’s voice, sharp and desperate, rang out: “It’s a trap.” Melissa’s sneer countered: “Him or the truth.” She’d stormed out, choosing answers over both. She had to find out what was going on.She needed to clear Alex's name…secretly.The warehouse squatted under a buzzing floodlight, steel walls scarred with rust. She parked a block away, heart slamming against her ribcage. Her phone had no signal. She crept to the door, half-open, dim light leaking out. “I’m here,” she called, voice tight, but the fear lingered. “Show me the proof.”A rough laugh answered. “Right on time, Lauren.” A man stepped forwar

Alex maneuvered his wheelchair through the quiet house, the hum of the wheels on hardwood the only sound. The clock on the mantle ticked past 11:30 PM, each second a needle in his gut. Lauren's absence gnawed at him—her fierce exit after their fight, clutching that damn photo and note, replayed in his mind. "I need the truth," she'd said, voice breaking, before storming out. He'd let her go, thinking she'd cool off, and come back. But the house felt wrong, too still, her jacket gone from the hook, one of his cars no longer in the drive.“Lauren?” he called, voice rough, rolling into the kitchen. No one answered. The study door was ajar, his laptop open, the light flashing, the sticky note with Dan’s login glaring—DKane—temp123. She’d been digging. His chest tightened. That text she’d shown him, the one about her mom’s death, had spooked her so much. “Warehouse, midnight…the proof he did it”. He’d told her it was a trap, but her eyes, wild with doubt, hadn’t listened.He grabbed his

The screen lit up—a grainy feed, Lauren tied to a chair, face swollen, blood crusting her lip. A masked figure stood behind her, voice distorted. “Alex, you want her back? Pay up. Everything—accounts, deals. Or I promise you'll never see her again. Not even her dead body.”Lauren’s eyes, defiant but scared, met the camera. “Alex, don’t,” she rasped, before a fist struck her jaw, silencing her. The video cut to black.Alex’s hands shook, rage boiling. “They’re torturing her,” he said, voice breaking. “Find them, Carter. I’ll give them anything, but I want their heads. I want my Lauren back.”“We’re tracing the upload,” Carter said, already dialing. “It’s encrypted, but we’ll crack it.”Alex stared at the blank screen, Lauren’s battered face burned into him. He’d failed her, let her doubt him, let her run. But he loved her, more than the contract, more than his pride. “I’m coming, Lauren,” he whispered, voice fierce. “Hold on.”His phone buzzed again—an unknown number. A new video loade

Cripple Billionaire Husband /Joy Richards
Lauren lay in the hospital bed, her body surging with intense pain, her heart a graveyard. The image of Melissa, naked in Alex’s bed, smirking like she had just won the battle, was a wound that wouldn’t stop aching and bleeding. It seemed like it would never heal. She’d fought through kidnappers, stumbled through woods, her love for Alex had become her downfall. It had become ash.Suddenly, her phone buzzed on the bedside table, waking her from her deep thoughts, a blocked number flashing. She grabbed it, her hands shaking as bandages pulled at her raw skin.“Who is this?” she demanded, voice hoarse and shaky, cracked from screaming into the void of her captivity.A distorted voice answered, cold and mocking. “Lauren, you seem to be tougher than we even imagined, now I see why Alex is so infatuated with you. But it's too bad. Your Alex, your husband? He’s already moved on.”Her phone pinged, an incoming notification. A video loaded: Melissa in Alex’s office, hours ago, her manicured h
