Lahat ng Kabanata ng MY EX-HUSBAND BETRAYED ME, BILLIONAIRE SAVED ME: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

NATHALIE’S POV-I opened my mouth but chose to close it again.If we were to spend the night here in Molokai, I would like to make the most of our stay here, like sightseeing. I might not go here again in the next ten years. I haven’t memorized Molokai, and I lack extra funds for sightseeing.“Is there a problem?” Sir Calix asked as he sat down again.I shook my head. “No, Sir.”Regardless, it exceeded two in the afternoon; sightseeing was no longer feasible.I continued eating. Sir Calix finished the rice I put in the crab shells with crab fat, then I finished all the food and he focused his full attention and gaze on his phone.After a while, someone called him and he answered it without standing up.“Yes. Yes. Yeah. Okay.”I couldn’t help but steal a glance at him as he spoke on the phone. Was that a conversation? He only uttered a single word to the person he addressed, marked by a unique sound.“E-hem.”My shoulders involuntarily lifted, at the same time when Sir Calix faked a c

NATHALIE’S POV-“Sir, let’s try this.” I pointed to a shop full of various souvenirs and food items.Sir Calix looked at the shop from roof to ground.We’ve been to so many souvenir shops, I can’t even count how many we’ve been to. The shops we visited all carried similar products; however, Sir Calix found most of the items unappealing.I can’t figure out why he doesn’t like the shops we’ve been to, because he doesn’t talk.“Are you sure the merchandise is good in these places?”I turned to Sir Calix.“You’re the one who said that, sir?” I asked, to be sure.He manfully raised his one eyebrow.“I’m just making sure, sir.” my excuse, which is true. “About your question, sir. Yes, I think?”“You’re not sure?”“That’s not what I meant. All the merchandise here looks good, it’s my first time here so I’m not too sure.”“No.” he said sparingly.“S-Sir?”He suddenly left. Before he could get far, I blocked his path.“Let’s try to check this out, sir.” I tried to convince him. “Wait.” I stoo

NATHALIE’S POV-As we got off Sir Calix’s plane and we’re about to go into the airport to get my stuff, he stopped walking, so I stopped walking too. He took the phone out of his pants pocket and answered the caller, “What? Who did this?”Sir Calix briefly glanced at me before disconnecting the call.He turned to face me. Before a chance to speak presented itself, someone called him again.Looking at the caller, he answered it immediately.“Okay.” he replied sparingly to the person on the phone, he subsequently ended the call.As Sir Calix hid the phone in his pants pocket, he looked around until his gaze focused on me.“Harrison will be there to take care of you as soon as we enter the terminal.” It was weak, but enough for me to hear what he said.I ought to have asked more questions, but he suddenly turned his back on me and walked away.I, not knowing what to do and wondering, followed him.Once we stepped up arriving at the arrival terminal, people remained who hadn’t departed

NATHALIE’S POV-Upon entering the mansion, I found Esther descending the stairs, carrying a food tray–which I think was food for Brianna.Sadness and worry overcame me quickly upon seeing Brianna leave her food untouched. I hope her bathroom water hasn’t been the only thing in her stomach in the days her dad, Calix, was absent from the mansion.When Esther noticed me, I smiled at her. She looked at me for about a minute, put the tray down, and hurried over to me.Once she came over to me, she hugged me. “I’m glad you’re here again.” She pulled away from the hug. “Did Calix send you back here?”I nodded.“I knew it. Why did you consider leaving without talking to him initially?”Mr. William walked right in with my suitcase and bag. “I’m going to return the suitcase and bag you lent me.” I said, to make sure to her I won’t leave again.Upon my departure, I should have only included plastic grocery bags; however, Esther, noticing her own distress, offered me her suitcase and large bag.

NATHALIE-Back in my room, I tidied up and afterward showered. After drying my hair, I went back to bed.No matter how soft the bed was, I couldn’t sleep or even close my eyes until I talked to Sir Calix.I stood up and left the room. I stopped in front of Brianna’s room. I wanted to check on her and asked her if she wanted to eat, but given the state of her room, she might refuse to eat again.I just continued downstairs to wait for Sir Calix.I found almost all the lights on in the living room, even the chandelier. If I hadn’t realized the lateness of the hour, I would have believed it was morning judging by the illumination within the mansion.I sat on the sofa and stared at the large flat-screen TV until the entire area became dark.“Nathalie.”I hear Sir Calix’s gruff and ice-cold voice.“Nathalie.”Hearing his voice again, I opened my eyes.I looked up at the grumpy but incredibly handsome face of Sir Calix standing behind the back of the sofa.“Sir?”“Why are you sleeping here
