บททั้งหมดของ The Billionaire's Wife: บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

I couldn't help but feel a sense of tenderness towards Sophia. She was still fast asleep, her peaceful face a stark contrast to the chaos that had been my day.I walked over to her desk, my eyes fixed on her serene expression. I gently reached out and undid my bow tie, letting it fall to the floor. Then, I slowly began to unbutton my tuxedo jacket, my movements quiet and deliberate.As I slid the jacket off my shoulders, I felt a sense of relief wash over me. I had been wearing that tuxedo for hours, and it was starting to feel suffocating.I walked over to Sophia's desk, my jacket draped over my arm. I gently placed it over her shoulders, covering her with the soft, luxurious fabric.As I looked at her, I felt a pang of affection. She looked so peaceful, so vulnerable. I couldn't help but want to protect her, to keep her safe from the world.I sat down in the chair in front of her desk, my eyes fixed on her face. I watched her sleep, mesmerized by the gentle rise and fall of her ches

I walked back to my office, trying to shake off the lingering sensations of Sophia's touch. I closed the door behind me and made my way to the cabinet where I kept a spare set of clothes. I needed to change out of my coffee-stained shirt, and I figured it would be easier to just grab a new one from my cabinet.As I opened the cabinet, I began to undress, pulling off my stained shirt and tossing it onto the floor. I reached into the cabinet and pulled out a fresh white polo, holding it up to my chest as I examined it for any wrinkles.Just as I was about to put on the new shirt, I heard a faint gasp behind me. I froze, my heart skipping a beat as I realized that someone was standing in my office, watching me.I slowly turned around, expecting to see one of my colleagues or maybe even Bridgette. But instead, I was shocked to see Sophia standing in the doorway, her eyes wide with surprise and her face flushed with embarrassment.I had no idea how long she had been standing there, but it

I sat there, scrolling through Bridgette's phone call history, and my eyes widened in surprise. There was only one number that she had been calling and talking to regularly, and that was my dad's number. I felt a shiver run down my spine as I realized that she had been in constant contact with him.I continued to scroll through her phonebook, but there were no other numbers listed. Just my dad's number and mine. It was as if she had no other friends or acquaintances, no other contacts in her life. I found it strange, but I couldn't shake off the feeling that there was something more to it.I decided to check her photos gallery, thinking that maybe I would find something suspicious there. But as I scrolled through the photos, I realized that they were all just pictures of us together. There were no other people in the photos, no other places or events. Just us.I felt a pang of disappointment and frustration. I had been so sure that I would find something incriminating on her phone, so

As I sat down in the waiting area, trying to collect my thoughts and calm my nerves, I suddenly realized something that made my heart skip a beat. The voice of the woman who had called me earlier, telling me that Sophia had been rushed to the hospital, sounded eerily familiar.I jumped up from my seat and approached the nurse's station. "Excuse me," I said, trying to sound calm. "I think I need to ask you something. Can you tell me the name of the nurse who called me earlier?"The nurse looked at me with a puzzled expression. "I'm not sure what you're talking about," she said. "We didn't call you. The patient was rushed into the hospital before we even had a chance to call anyone."I felt a surge of confusion. "But someone called me," I insisted. "A woman's voice. She told me that Sophia had been rushed to the hospital."The nurse's expression changed from puzzled to curious. "Let me check something," she said, tapping on the computer screen. "Ah, yes. It looks like someone did bring

As we stepped out of the elevator, I was immediately struck by the sea of faces waiting for us. Every employee in the company seemed to be gathered in the lobby, all of them smiling and eager to welcome me back to work.I forced a smile onto my face, trying to appear grateful and enthusiastic, but inside, I was seething with anxiety. I knew that I had to be careful, that one misstep could put Sophia in danger.And then, I saw her. Sophia was standing near my office, a smile on her face as she gazed at me. My heart skipped a beat as our eyes met, and for a moment, I forgot about everything else.But I couldn't let myself get caught up in the moment. I knew that I had to be cold, distant, and heartless. I had to pretend that Sophia was just another employee, someone I barely knew.So I ignored her, passing by her as if she was just a ghost. I didn't even glance in her direction, afraid that if I did, I would give away my true feelings.I knew that Sophia would be hurt by my behavior, th
