All Chapters of The Billionaire's Daring Kitten : Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

Ruby's POVDominic's men grabbed her arms and forced her to her knees in front of us, earning a startled yelp from her. She wasn't bruised or bloody, but she looked like someone who had not slept in days. Her dress was wrinkled and dirty and her hair was a tangled mess.Dominic crouched and lifted her chin with two fingers. "You have no idea how much I want to kill you right now." He muttered.Surprisingly, she did not flinch. Instead, a slow, eerie smile crept across her face. "There's nothing you could do to me that Gabriel hasn't done ten times over," she whispered. "I'm not afraid to die."I folded my arms. "Then why did you do it?" I asked. "Why did you pretend to be someone else just to get close to me? Why did you lie to me, to us?"She sighed and closed her eyes for a moment, like she was pulling the words from deep inside."Because Gabriel made me," she admitted. "I never ever wanted to hurt you, Ruby. I just needed the key. That was all. I needed the key and the wealth that

Ruby’s POV"You guys look far from ready!"I peered into my phone, where I was having a FaceTime with Ariana and Lilac. It was the night of the fundraising dinner.Ariana was in her room, fluffing her curls in front of her mirror. She has a black skincare mask on. Lilac was lying on the floor in her pajamas."Oh, we'll be ready soon." Lilac replied and rolled her eyes. "Not everybody takes two and a half hours to get ready like you do, Ruby.""And I'm the better for it." I snorted. "You guys had better not waste my time."“Ruby, you’re a lifesaver,” Ariana said, twisting a strand of hair around her finger. “Seriously. Without you, I’d never get in.”Lilac sat up and then stood to her feet with a groan. “Then you’d never see your dream guy again.”Ariana sighed and threw her head back. “Can you not lay into me like a kid?”I chuckled. “Wail all you want, but Lilac is right. If you don’t at least get his name tonight, we’re going to join hands and beat you up.”Ariana gasped and clutche

Gabriel’s POV"Well, that was a waste of a night."I took a drag from my cigarette and blew a puff. Smoke curled toward the ceiling. That was the only thing in this room that moved without fear. The taste of nicotine was no longer calming my nerves. Six of my men stood in front of me, beaten, battered and broken. One had a black eye that was so swollen he could barely see. Another one cradled his wrist, bent at an ugly angle. A third one was pressing an ice pack to a jaw that was so swollen he couldn't talk. The other men were no better. Julia had fed them lies and walked them straight into a beating. I took another drag and exhaled slowly. My chest burned, but not from the smoke. I was angry. I was so angry that I knew I would not be able to control her if I saw her. I should have known better than to trust Julia. She came home from work a few nights ago, all breathless and eager, and told me everything. She told me how Ruby had the key, how she and Dominic were going to some

Dominic’s POVRuby pulled back. Her lips were parted, her eyes searching mine."Why did you do that?" she asked."Don't blame me, Nurse Ruby." I let out a faint smile. "Dizziness from the injury."Her brows pulled together like she didn’t believe me. Before she could say anything, footsteps sounded from the hall. We both turned.Ariel stood in the doorway with her arms crossed. She lifted a hand and waved it lazily. "Oh, don’t stop on my account."Ruby let out a breath and ran a hand through her hair. I turned back to my daughter. "What are you doing awake by this hour?"Being disorganized, I didn't realize she left before.She leaned against the doorframe. "Your lousy car woke me up.""It's lousy because six men were tearing It apart." I frowned. "And you never wake up for that."She shrugged. "I had a restless sleep anyway."I studied her. There were faint shadows under her eyes. She wasn’t lying.Ariel’s gaze dropped to my arm. "Are you okay, dad?""Yeah." I nodded. "Ruby handled t

Dominic’s POVI turned off the ignition and glanced at Ruby. She hadn’t moved or even spoken a word to me. She just sat there, staring out the window like she wasn’t really seeing anything."Talk to me, Ruby."She said nothing."You can’t keep this bottled up," I tried again. "I know you’re hurting."She scoffed, but it was barely audible. I could tell she was hurting. She had been hurting for three days since Julia died. I didn't understand why she still felt so much emotion for a person who ha stabbed her in the back, but I tried to reason with her anyway."I see it," I continued. "You pretend when you’re around others, but I know you. You’re not okay."She shifted slightly but still didn’t meet my eyes."You’ve barely slept," I said. "You don’t eat properly. You look like a ghost of yourself."Her fingers dug into her lap. "Drop it, Dominic.""I’m not dropping it.""Well, I’m not talking."I exhaled sharply. "Julia’s death...."Her head snapped toward me. "Don’t.""You need to let
