Semua Bab IN LOVE WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS(He Is Betrothed, But Mine!): Bab 21 - Bab 30

Chapter 21 The threats Olivia's POVLeonardo arrived faster than I expected. His sleek black car pulled up to the curb, and he stepped out, his expression sharp and concerned. He scanned the street until his eyes landed on me.I was sitting on a bench near the diner, my hands trembling in my lap. The moment I saw him, something in me broke."Olivia," he said, striding toward me. "What happened?"I shook my head, unable to find the words. My chest felt tight, and my throat burned as I fought back tears.He crouched in front of me, his hands gently gripping mine. "Talk to me. Did someone hurt you?"I hesitated before nodding. "It was my stepbrother," I whispered.Leonardo's jaw clenched, his grip tightening slightly. "Derek? What did he do?""He...he's back," I said, my voice shaking. "He called me this morning and made me meet him. He's threatening me, Leonardo. He knows everything about my past, and he's not going to leave me alone."Leonardo's eyes darkened, and a muscle in his jaw

Leonardo’s POV The rhythmic ticking of the clock on my desk filled the silence in my office. I leaned back in my chair, phone in hand, staring at the call icon on the screen. Calling my father always felt like preparing for battle. This time was no different. The situation with Olivia was spiraling into something I hadn’t planned for—but something I refused to ignore. My engagement to Alicia was a sham, a tangled web of business alliances and power plays that I’d tolerated for far too long. But now? After last night, watching Olivia stand up to her past with so much strength? It had shifted something in me. I exhaled and hit the call button. It didn’t even ring twice before my father’s deep, authoritative voice came through. “Leonardo. It’s early for you to call. What’s this about?” No small talk. No warmth. Just business as usual. “I need to talk to you about Alicia,” I said, keeping my tone steady. There was a pause on the other end, long enough to make my stomach tight

Chapter 25 Alicia's Pov ( his regret) I tapped my fingers impatiently against the edge of the café table, my perfectly manicured nails clicking in a steady rhythm. Derek was late, as usual. I glanced at the clock on my phone, my irritation mounting. I only put out with him because we both had something in common, which was hating olivia. I don't know the reason he hates her and frankly I didn't care, but I? I hate everything about her, I hate her appearing in Leonardo's life and taking away his love for me, a mere secretary! I hated her guts, I hated that she was prettier than me as much as I hated to admit it, and now Derek. Surprisingly, he had become my ally and was my key to destroying Olivia for good, but his tardiness drove me mad. If he didn’t arrive soon, I would— “There she is,” Derek’s voice drawled, interrupting my thoughts. I looked up to see him sauntering toward me, his smirk as infuriating as ever. He slid into the seat across from me without apology, acting

Chapter 27 (Overtime)Leonard's pov cont.The office was nearly silent by the time the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a golden glow over the city skyline. Most of the staff had already left for the day, leaving behind an eerie stillness that I found oddly comforting. My thoughts, however, were focused on the work that still needed to be done.I glanced at my watch and then back at the documents scattered across my desk. An important investment meeting loomed ahead-one that could potentially open the gates for our company to enter the lucrative Chinese market. It was an opportunity I couldn't afford to mishandle, and there was only one person I trusted to help me finalize the presentation.Standing, I made my way to Olivia's desk. She was still here, as I had expected, diligently typing away. The soft glow of her desk lamp cast her in a warm light, accentuating the determined set of her features."Olivia," I said, drawing her attention.She looked up, her expression a mixtur

Chapter 29: BrokenOlivia's POVThe world was a haze of pain and darkness as I blinked my swollen eyes open. The gritty asphalt beneath me scraped against my raw skin, and the metallic tang of blood lingered in my mouth. My cheek throbbed, my ribs screamed with every shallow breath, and the faint metallic tang of blood lingered on my tongue. I felt like my body wasn't my own anymore, just a collection of aches and bruises.But worse than the pain was the humiliation.Derek's laugh echoed in my head, cruel and mocking. His words cut deeper than his fists ever could. "You think you can escape me?"My fingers curled into the loose gravel beneath me as I tried to push myself up. My arms trembled, the effort monumental. A sharp pain shot through my ribs, and I collapsed back onto the ground, gasping for air.I couldn't stay here. Not like this. Not broken.The street was quiet, deserted except for the dim glow of the streetlights. No one had come to help. No one had even heard me scre
