Lahat ng Kabanata ng MY EX-HUSBAND BETRAYED ME, BILLIONAIRE SAVED ME: Kabanata 181 - Kabanata 190

NATHALIE’S POV-I quickly wiped away my tears and continued what I was doing.I woke Mommy up to tell her I was going back to the mansion temporarily, explaining that Brianna needed me. The moment she heard Sir Calix was in the living room, she immediately got up and went to him.The moment Mom saw Sir Calix’s disheveled and distressed state, she immediately took over, fussing over him with concern and trying to make him comfortable. Meanwhile, I went back to my room to pack my things.Since I haven’t given Harrison back the bag and suitcase he lent me, I’ll use those for now. I’ll buy my own suitcase when I have some free time.After I got my things organized, I left the room with the suitcase and bag.I came upon Mom as she examined the cardigan that I suspected she had lent to Sir Calix.“There, it suits you very well and fits you perfectly.” Mom praised him. “Good thing I hadn’t thrown that out, otherwise you wouldn’t have anything to change into right now.:“Thank you, Mrs. Marg

CALIX’S POV-Veronica peered out of the expansive windows in the corner. I approached her, my face devoid of expression.“Were you the one who called the social workers?” I asked as soon as I got close to her.With a smirk, she turned to me. “Yup, I was the one who called and sent them to your mansion. I told you I would take my niece, come what may.”“Have you any idea what your actions have done to my child?”“Your child?” she laughed mockingly. “She’s not your daughter, Calix. You know that from the very beginning. You’re just under the illusion that Brianna is your daughter. What I can’t understand is why you married Venice in the first place? If you wanted to marry a woman who was already pregnant, you should have gotten me pregnant and married me instead.”Her words make me more disgusted with her.“What do you want in exchange for leaving Brianna and me alone?”“I have been saying what I want for a long time and I will repeat it until I get what I want. Marry me, give me the r

NATHALIE’S POV-Upon Sir Calix’s immediate receipt of the discharge papers, we departed from the hospital. Currently, we are en route to the mansion.Brianna and I were both in the backseat, she was wrapped in a jacket and sitting on my lap while I hugged her.Inadvertently, my gaze drifted to the rearview mirror, where I unexpectedly found Sir Calix’s eyes meeting mine through the reflection.I avoided his gaze, turning my attention to Brianna and making a show of checking on her, even though she was soundly sleeping.....Upon arriving at the mansion, it was already afternoon, and time for Brianna to take her medicine.When Sir Calix stopped the car at the main door, I gently woke Brianna by softly calling out to her.“Brianna, baby. Brianna, we’re back at the mansion.”After waking her up several times, she finally opened her eyes.I stroked her forehead and neck. “Your body temperature has decreased. Maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow you’ll be better as long as you take

NATHALIE’S POV-Gripping the tray again, I eased the door open inch by inch, my senses on high alert for any sound of yelling before I fully entered.After a few seconds passed and I still couldn’t hear Sir Calix’s footsteps, I proceeded to open the door and step inside.The moment I stepped inside, the mixed stench of liquor and cigarettes hit me so hard I nearly dropped the tray. Never in my life would I have imagined Sir Calix’s room smelling like this.The scents of alcohol and cigarettes made me cough, a slight ache blooming in my sinuses. The air felt heavy, inducing dizziness and a sensation of blockage in my throat.Since no windows were open, and even the sliding door to the balcony was closed, the smell had nowhere to escape and lingered heavily in the room.The tray of food I brought earlier was just on the floor. It appeared he’d only taken it and brought it inside, but hadn’t bothered to eat a single bite.I continued to enter looking around for Sir Calix but my gaze wa

NATHALIE’S POV-That natural mint smell, the familiar warm caress of his hand on my arm.“My love...” And that resonant baritone voice would become gentle whenever he referred to it, followed by the heated brush of his lips across my forehead, making their way down to my lips and then my neck.It was such a beautiful dream that I wish it would never end. If my dreams were always like this I wouldn’t mind if I got stuck in this dream with Sir Calix.“I love you more than you know.”My feelings for you run just as deep, Sir Calix. If only I could tell you.In an instant I suddenly opened my eyes as my spirit woke up along with my getting up.I felt my cheek wet. I was going to wipe it, but I couldn’t because I felt my hand being held.I looked to the other side of the bed, and Sir Calix was there, his eyes locked on mine.Then I realized I was lying in his bed – in his arms, in his room and still wearing my scrub suit uniform.Last I remembered, I accompanied him to eat on the balcony.
