Semua Bab MY EX-HUSBAND BETRAYED ME, BILLIONAIRE SAVED ME: Bab 151 - Bab 160

NATHALIE’S POV-It was already night when we got back from the rest house so we decided to go back to L.A. tomorrow afternoonHarrison carefully gathered Brianna into his arms, her small body limp with sleep. He carried her to our room, our steps soft, and laid her down with infinite gentleness.“Good night.” He said to me.I nodded with a spare smile.I looked away from him, sat on the bed to take off Brianna’s shoes.Even though I pretended to be busy, I saw in the corner of my eye he still didn’t take his eyes off me.I took a moment to meet his gaze and asked, with a hint of authority, “Can I help you with something?”“I would have liked to talk to you about what happened at my apartment, when you suddenly left.”I exhaled. “I...” I inhaled and said, “I’m tired from what we did all day. Maybe another time?”He nodded with a controlled smile. He stared at me for a few seconds before leaving the room.When he closed the door, I sighed.After dragging ourselves through everything at

• THIRD PERSON’S POV •-Upon the private jet’s immediate arrival on the landing strip his cousin had provided, Calix scrambled out and anxiously rushed to the car where Bruno was waiting to drive him to the rest house.No sooner had Calix entered the car with Bruno than Bruno started the engine and drove off towards the rest house.It was late at night and only a few minutes later it was 12 MN, so Calix expected Nathalie to be at the rest house, along with Brianna.During the trip, he couldn’t rest until he talked to Nathalie and explained about the photos that were circulating and the fabricated stories on social media accounts about him and Veronica.Fortunately, they didn’t pass through any traffic, so they quickly reached the rest house.As soon as he exited the car, he immediately looked towards the room Bruno had pointed out, the room where Nathalie was supposed to be sleeping with Brianna. However, he found only his daughter there, sleeping soundly.Calix discreetly slipped o

• THIRD PERSON’S POV •-Calix returned to their table and stayed for a few minutes before leaving and saying goodbye to his mother.“Aren’t you going to say goodbye to your father?”“You can tell him I left already. I want to thank you for standing up for Nathalie, Mom,” Calix said with sincerity and a smile. “I overheard and I appreciate what you did.”Mrs. Beatrice’s eyes welled up at Calix’s words. It was the first time in all her years as a mother she felt she’d truly succeeded in being a good mother to him, and she silently thanked Nathalie for that matter. “I’m heading out. I still need to meet up with Nathalie and Brianna.” He was referring to following them to Hawaii.Mrs. Beatrice smiled.Calix hurried out of the party hall. As he walked by himself, a splitting headache suddenly struck him, and he collapsed, everything fading to black.When Calix opened his eyes again, he was in a room he didn’t recognize.His clothes were scattered on the floor. He looked down at his body

NATHALIE’S POV-I woke up because of something, some small thing, that was touching my face over and over.As consciousness dawned, I found Brianna happily kissing my face, while her father was behind her watching us.“Good morning.”When Sir Calix greeted me, Brianna stopped kissing my face and looked at me.I got up and greeted Sir Calix with, “Good morning.” I also looked at Brianna who was hugging Harrie–her teddy bear. “Good morning, baby.” I greeted her sweetly.She stood up from the bed full of joy and sat on my lap then hugged me. I kissed her on the top of her head.“Have you brushed your teeth?” I softly asked.She shook her head.“Do you want to eat?”She nodded.“I’m just going to change clothes.” Sir Calix said as Brianna and I looked at him at the same time.“Sir, where’s your stuff?”I only realized now he didn’t have a suitcase or bag with him last night.“I’m going to borrow clothes from Harrison.” he said casually.Considering their long friendship, it’s likely not

NATHALIE’S POV-It’s late at night but Brianna and I still haven’t slept, not because we’re doing anything as bonding but because she can’t sleep.Every five minutes or sometimes it takes ten minutes for her to sleep, then she’ll wake up.I guess she’s not used to my room not being as soft as her pillows and bed, or as cool as her own room. She often scratches the back of her neck and arms. Most of all, she’s not used to us not having air conditioning.The entire mansion has air conditioning in every room; even the bathrooms are air-conditioned.“Baby,” I called softly when she scratched again while her eyes were closed.She turned to face me then opened her eyes.I got up and smiled. “Do you want to go back to the mansion?”She got up too, her eyes widening.“It’s not that I don’t want to be with you; of course, I enjoy being with you very much. It’s just that you’re having trouble sleeping, and you might not get any sleep at all tonight,” I explained. “Would you prefer to go back t
