Revenge on my billionaire ex-husband のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 71 - チャプター 80

POV: Granny’s House Fred held her hand as they stood outside her grandmother's house on Sunday afternoon.“You haven't heard anything other than the one text?”“I saw. I love you, I'll talk to you tomorrow.”That was it. No call. Just the text. She was so confused.“Nothing. Not another word, his father called me this morning to tell me that Nichole was in Texas, and he would be home today. If his father knows he said nothing to me.”Fred looked at her sadly,” he said he loved you and he'd talk to you today.”“I know.”“Her experience with him this far has been when he's dealing with something he backs off to get his head straight. Remember the video? He went radio silence because he wanted to fix it. Right?”“And at the gala, he went silent because he was trying to get his temper under control with Tony.”“Right. So he's getting his shit together and he'll be back for you. This is his Mo. He steps back to get his thoughts together and then he'll be back for you. Don't stress. Please

POV: Confronting LolaShe moved unhesitatingly towards him. He cupped her cheeks with his palms and stared down at her, a tender smile on his face. God, he loved this woman. The way she simply followed his lead made his heart ache wonderfully. She was made for him.“I love you,” she whispered to him.“I love you too,” his smile got bigger. “Sorry I bolted. I had something I really wanted to take care of.”“It's okay, we can talk later.”He nodded and was about to say something when Merlin interrupted. “What is it?”“That is a gift.”“A gift?” Merlin frowned. “What kind of gift?”“I never in a million years thought I would ever bestow one on a Williams but after talking to my girl,” he hugged Laila tightly, “and my mom who once had her heart ripped out of her chest because your father was careless, I couldn't sit by and do nothing.”“I don't understand.”“When I was a kid, your father destroyed the home of my family and twenty six other families. My parents were immigrants in the coun

POV: Merlin and Lola – DoneMerlin looked at Laila sadly. “You got pregnant?”“Yes.”“Why, Laila? Why couldn’t you—”“I bet it was in New York,” Nichole said with a laugh, cutting off Merlin’s speech nobody wanted to hear. “I pretty much kidnapped you. Your habit of doubling up birth control pills has caught up with you, sweetheart.”He kissed her temple and squeezed her hip before quickly adding that he was teasing.She giggled, blushing as she rubbed her head against his shoulder.“You knew she messed up her pills and didn’t use extra precautions,” Merlin accused furiously.“Well, no. Not in New York,” Nichole said calmly. “I figured it out when I moved her to my place after you broke into hers.”“You trapped her then.” Merlin glowered at him. “You trapped her knowing she thought she was safe with her pills.”“She’s a grown woman, Merlin,” Nichole replied with a short laugh, clearly unimpressed by the accusation.Laila scowled. “Merlin, I know you accused Lola of trapping you, but d

POV: New HomeShe straddled him in the seat and hugged him tightly. “Why? What made you do this?”“I want to make all your dreams come true, Laila. I want you to laugh and smile with happiness. I never want you to be sad, and if you're sad I want to be close enough to you so I can help wipe those tears away and make you feel better. I grew up with my dad right there all the time and I want that for my children. He never once had to leave us for weeks on end and I don't want it for our baby. I want what my parents had, and as I sat in the meeting yesterday morning thinking of my dad the day he walked out of a million-dollar meeting because my Mom needed him… well, let's just say I was inspired.”Her sobs were giving way to hiccups and sniffles as he made long sweeping motions up and down her back, holding her tight to him. The warmth of his chest and the steadiness of his heartbeat slowly calmed her. For a moment neither of them spoke, simply enjoying the quiet intimacy of the moment.

POV: Paint “You know what I want now?” He asked as he gently kissed her lips.“What?”“To see you wear nothing but that ring.”She laughed at his bold words and the fire in his eyes. “It can be arranged.”“I do also have a picnic basket,” he motioned to the side of the room. “Bread, cheese and meat but not deli meat because you're not supposed to have it according to my mother. Mom cooked a turkey for her and dad today, she gave me a container full. “He smiled at her grin, “I bought non-alcoholic wine too.”“You can have real wine, I know how much you love wine.” She frowned at his words.“I do,” but I love you more and if you have to make sacrifices to bring our child into this world, then I'll make as many of them as I possibly can with you. I might not be able to push a watermelon out my lower half, but I can give up alcohol for the next nine months.”She laughed, “we're going to be grumpy.” “Nah, we'll subsidized it with fucking. “I'll get drunk on the flavor of you.”“Fool, "
