Semua Bab Nelson de Vedra: The Outcast Billionaire: Bab 71 - Bab 80

Dorry gently ran her hand along my arm as she watched me silently.I’d been tense for a while now. I’d been racking my brain, trying to figure out what to say to Atty. Larson, who ended up hurt because of me. I couldn’t even explain how I felt. It was like the guilt was eating me alive; I was too ashamed to face him. I hadn’t seen him yet, but just knowing he got badly beaten up—it’s like I could feel the pain myself.“Nelson, relax,” Dorry nudged me, her hand moving to my chest. “Atty. Larson’s doing fine. His bruises and wounds haven’t fully healed, but he’s stable now. You don’t have to worry anymore.”I let out a deep sigh, taking her hand and gently squeezing it as I looked into her eyes—my gaze inevitably falling to her lips again, which I longed to claim. “Thank you, Dorry. You always know how to ease my mind,” I said softly, which made her smile before resting her head on my shoulder like it was her favorite pillow.I kissed her forehead and teased, “But you always manage to w

This is it. Every single one of our plans has come to life. It all happened so fast, like lightning—and now, my wife and I officially own Hector’s company. The very company that grew because of a project he stole from Dorry’s parents.My wife hasn’t stopped smiling since. Honestly, she looks even more thrilled than I am. She says it’s because marrying me wasn’t for nothing. Yes, she told me everything—the arranged marriage, the reason she agreed to it. It was all part of her plan to get close to Hector, lure him into a trap, and finally get revenge for what he did to her family.“Dorry… that smile’s a bit much—you’re starting to look crazy,” I teased with a grin, even as I kept pressing kisses to her hand. She smells so good… and damn, she looks stunning tonight in that black satin dress that drapes down to her ankles, with a slit high enough to show off her thighs.I found myself biting my lip, unable to tear my eyes away from her exposed thigh—my hand now gently brushing over it.“N

“I don’t know what to do with you! You can’t even fight back, so stop forcing it—it’s better than ending up frustrated!”“Dorry, come on!” I followed my wife like a puppy as she headed straight for the car parked in front of the hotel.I leaned back, watching Dorry from the corner of my eye as she continued ranting about Hector’s downfall.She couldn’t stop smiling. The joy on her face was undeniable. She was so happy she didn’t even notice me sulking. My little pout had zero effect.And honestly, it was my fault. She was right. I couldn’t even fight back. No wonder she didn’t want to join me in a battle I couldn’t win.“Dorry…” I took her hand. “You’re so happy… what about me?” I blinked dramatically and pouted at her.“You’re not happy about Hector going down?” she finally looked at me.“I am… but I want a different kind of happiness...that reaches the heavens.” I gave her a heated look, which made her smile.But instead of giving in to my affection, she just let out a long breath a

After speaking with Jac, Dorry and I wasted no time driving to the location he had given us. It was a remote place—a hacienda owned by Norma and Hernan.As we neared the property, the tension in the air was unmistakable. We could hear the echoes of gunfire, no doubt coming from the firearms of Norma’s men and the police.When we arrived, officers quickly stopped us, making sure we didn’t get too close to the scene of the chaos. We didn’t push back, but my eyes immediately searched for Jac—who was now running toward Dorry and me. He looked anxious.“Sir Nelson, you shouldn’t have come. It’s dangerous. Norma refuses to surrender,” he said, panting.“Jac, I couldn’t just sit at home and wait for news,” I replied.He didn’t want to give me the address in the first place, but I insisted.I turned to look at Dorry. She was clutching my hand tightly, clearly just as nervous as I was about everything happening around us.“Your aunt has gone mad, sir. She won’t even listen to Hector. She said

“Hector is dead…”It was as if I had gone deaf at that moment. I saw Jac’s lips twitch—he wasn’t done speaking. But I couldn’t hear anything else. The words “Hector is dead” just kept echoing in my head.Like his parents, Hector had his share of sins, but earlier, I truly believed he was ready to change. Then his mother shattered that hope. Instead of remorse or redemption, she placed the blame for her sins on Hector.“Nelson, do you want to see Hector first?” Dorry’s soft voice brought me back to my senses. She gently rubbed my hand.I gave her a bitter smile as I looked into her tearful eyes. I didn’t know what was going through her mind or heart after what happened to Hector, but her eyes—there was no denying the sadness.I was grieving too. What else could I feel? He became the price for his parents’ wickedness.I let out a deep breath and wiped the tears that were threatening to fall from Dorry’s eyes. “I want to see Hector one last time… but right now, I have to face my aunt one
