Semua Bab My Billionaire Husband's Hidden Identity : Bab 161 - Bab 170

THORIN felt disgusted thinking about Felicity’s aunt in how she wasted Felicity’s best years. Pero at the same time, may parte sa kanya na secretly thankful. Dahil sa mga balakid ng tiyahin nito, Felicity ended up right here, with him.“Big villain? Ako?”He almost smirked at the thought.“These things only show,” Thorin muttered coldly, “that she’s independent. Strong at heart.”Daniel immediately shook his head, his grin playful yet sharp. “Wrong. That only proves one thing that this woman, after going through so much hardship, did everything to grab onto you like a lifeline. Don’t you see? She’s just pretending not to know your identity as a second-generation heir to pursue you.”Thorin’s eyes darkened. He didn’t answer. Inside, he hated how Daniel always twisted Felicity’s strength into schemes. In Daniel’s eyes, no woman in this world was ever reliable.“Anything else?” Thorin’s voice was flat.Daniel raised an eyebrow, lips quirking. “I’m checking her true background.”That made

THORIN subtly stepped back, retracting his foot before he could be caught on camera. The last thing he needed was his face splashed across the headlines because of Selene Meyer’s theatrics.His brows knitted as he glanced at the scene in the lobby—Selene, still in that ridiculous wedding dress, cornered by layers of security guards trying to hold her back.The head of security, a composed female officer, kept her voice calm. “Ms. Meyer, it’s really inconvenient for CEO to come down. You can try calling him instead.”Pero kung alam lang nila—matagal nang naka-block ang number ni Selene sa phone ni Thorin. At kahit ilang beses pa itong bumili ng bagong SIM, isa-isa niya pa ring nilalagay sa blacklist. Hindi man lang niya ito binigyan ng pagkakataon na makausap siya.Selene’s face paled, as if she’d fallen into an icy cave. She clenched her fists around her gown, fighting tears, habang pinagtitinginan siya ng lahat.From the side, Daniel slipped his hands casually into his pockets, leani

ARNOLD leaned back against the leather seat, his eyes narrowing as he studied his younger sister. Galit at inis ang nangingibabaw, pero may halong awa at amusement din habang pinagmamasdan niya si Selene na nakakunot ang noo, parang batang ipinagkait ng laruan.Selene had always been bold—whether sa love o sa galit. Palaban siya, hindi takot umamin sa nararamdaman, at lalong hindi natitinag kapag gusto niya ang isang bagay. Oo, medyo spoiled at willful, pero never siyang naging masamang babae. She had her flaws, pero hindi siya masamang tao.At iyon ang hindi maintindihan ni Arnold. Why Thorin? Bakit sa dami ng pwedeng piliin ng kapatid niya, sa dami ng lalaking may kaparehong yaman at impluwensya, bakit kay Thorin siya nahulog?Arnold’s jaw clenched. “Out of all men, Selene… bakit siya pa?” he muttered under his breath, his tone low but filled with restrained frustration.Selene, clueless to his thoughts, stared out the tinted window, her face still glowing with stubborn determinatio

“SIYA ba si Thorin Evans? 'Yung CEO ng Evans Group?” tanong ni Shia habang halos dikit ang mukha sa phone screen.Sumulyap lang si Felicity at hindi na tiningnan pa ang video. Kaya hindi niya napansin na ang lalaking iyon ay minsan na niyang nakita, si Daniel Navarro. Isa pa, blurry at shaky pa ang screen kaya mas lalo siyang nawalan ng interes. Para sa kanya, an ordinary person like her would never cross paths with someone as untouchable as the heir of the Evans.“Why waste time obsessing over someone who has nothing to do with me?” she thought. “Mas mabuti pang tapusin ko na lang ‘tong canvas at kumita ng pera.”Shia, on the other hand, was practically glowing with excitement. “Besty, last time sa banquet, we only caught a blurry glimpse of his back. Pero ngayon, kita na ang mukha niya, kahit medyo fuzzy pa rin yung photo! Don’t you feel even the slightest bit curious?”Felicity shrugged, her tone flat. “So what if I’m curious? Curiosity won’t pay the bills. He’s not going to help m

“It’s not just any woman that can make a man’s heart beat...”UNANG pagkakataon iyon na nagpaliwanag si Thorin tungkol sa sariling emosyon sa harap ng iba. Pero hindi pa rin tumigil si Felicity. “Pero kahit ang isang babae na kasing ganda at kasing yaman ni Selene Meyer, hindi niya magustuhan? Ano bang gusto niya? Isang diwata na bababa mula sa langit?”Natahimik si Thorin, hindi agad nakasagot. Ang bigat ng katahimikan ay lalo lamang nagpaigting ng kutob ni Felicity.Kumunot ang noo niya, saka mariing nagwika, “Ibig sabihin, may mali talaga sa sexual orientation niya!”Sa unang pagkakataon, naramdaman ni Thorin kung ano ang ibig sabihin ng kasabihang “a man can never win an argument with a woman.”Kalmado niyang sinabi, “Maybe may babae na hindi galing sa top-notch family, at hindi rin top-notch ang itsura… pero kahit gano’n, siya pa rin ang gusto niya.”Ngumiti si Felicity, bahagyang may halong biro. “Mr. Thorin, minsan pakiramdam ko ang mature mo, pero minsan parang bata rin.”Na
