Lahat ng Kabanata ng Married On Paper: My Ruthless Boss is My Billionaire Husband: Kabanata 41 - Kabanata 50

Cassandra's POVI woke up in a usual chaotic state. However, tonight, I got more sleep than usual.Chris said he had some business to attend to, so he left after we made love and only came home at 3 AM. I was too sleepy to wake up even though I knew he had come back. He didn't say anything, either. I heard him walking to the bathroom, and then, a few minutes later, he lay next to me on the bed, his body damp, smelling of refreshing almond soap.He had showered, and I knew that.The question is… why did he shower at 3 AM?"Stay away from me," I pushed him away when he placed his head on my shoulder while I was doing my skincare routine at the vanity."You left me and showered alone. You're cheating!" he said, annoyed.I ignored him. I couldn’t possibly respond by saying that he also left me and showered alone this morning, could I?My phone rang, and I grabbed it. There were several messages from Sergio, all about work. In the morning, Sergio usually sent instructions about my tasks, b

Christopher’s POV"I’m on my way to the headquarters. I want everyone to be there in an hour." I said while contacting Dexon, who was probably somewhere unknown tonight."Is there a problem?" Dexon replied a few seconds later.There was no scheduled meeting with the secret leaders today. The last meeting happened a few weeks ago before I saved Cassandra from two men who tried to touch her. Judging by the date, the next meeting would take place in about two weeks."Gather whoever is here and tell them I will be there in an hour.""Chris," Dexon sounded hesitant but then sighed deeply. "I’ll do my best. Your guards will follow your car in 15 minutes," he added. I didn’t need to say anything else because Dexon would always send security whenever I came and left from the headquarters."Where are we going?"Cassandra’s question caught my attention after we had been driving in silence for a few minutes."My secret place," I turned my head and glanced at her for a moment. "Are you afraid?"

Cassandra's POVI glared at the man behind me.Even if I ran, I knew my legs wouldn’t be able to match his strength. But if I didn’t do anything and decided to stay here, it would be like committing suicide."What do you want now?" I swallowed and took a deep breath."You really are arrogant, even though I’m the one who made you marry him." The man—my father—laughed cynically. "What did you give him that makes him so nice to you? I didn’t expect you to tame him in just two months, especially since he’s known as a cold-blooded dog in the underground world."I didn’t understand what he was talking about.Underground world? That wasn’t a term I heard often. But, I had seen something I had never seen before when I went to the headquarters, so I think Andreas is talking about that place or anything that relates to Chris’ dark world."Did you come here just to say that?" I asked."And waste my time for nothing?" He quickly replied.I knew he wouldn’t come to me without a reason. "So, what d

Cassandra’s POV“Is there… anything else you’re hiding?” I rolled to my side so that my face was now level with Chris lying on his back, staring at the ceiling.After we finished making love, he didn’t want to delay any longer. He decided to talk about everything with me, and I… could only remain silent, unable to hide my shock.I’ve only known him for two months, but I’ve already uncovered a dark side of his life that I could never have imagined before. And worst of all, I married this dangerous man. I share a room with him and have done the most intimate things I’ve ever done—with only him.I understand that none of this means much to Chris. He’ll move on to another woman once he’s done with me, but this is something big to me.“It would take more than one night if you want to know everything. Do you want to do that?” He raised his hand and gently touched my cheek.“I don’t know; I’m not even sure if I need to know all of this.”“This is important for your safety,” he said, looking

Flashback 15 Tahun Lalu"Please, don't whip me; my back hurts so much. I don't want to go into that room!" I tried everything to stop the two men dragging me into the dark room.My heart pounded, knowing what awaited me there. Whips, punches, and sometimes even a cigarette pressed into my skin without mercy.I didn't know how many times I had entered that room, but all the worst things always happened there."Out of all of them, you're the noisiest, blondie!" The man beside me grumbled. "I've told you not to cry and disturb the peace. This is what you get for being loud!"I shook my head. I remembered how the whip marks from two days ago still stung as I lay on the floor to sleep. But now, they wanted to whip me again, and I knew the pain would be even worse than before.Tears streamed down my face as I moved closer to the dark room ahead. At only ten years old, I couldn't possibly fight against the strength of two grown men dragging me. The other kids—also kidnapped and held here—coul
