All Chapters of Married On Paper: My Ruthless Boss is My Billionaire Husband: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Cassandra’s POVUsually, I like to stay in bed for a while when I wake up in the morning. I would check my phone and read some morning articles before taking a shower and getting ready for work.But this morning, I found myself sitting at the edge of the bed, watching Chris sleeping on the sofa.His tall, broad frame didn’t fit the sofa’s size. His blanket had slipped off since he had a habit of moving around in his sleep. One of his arms rested on his forehead, and his face still looked tired, eyes shut.Seeing him this morning reminded me of what happened last night.Somehow, I ended up staying in this house even though I had planned to leave.It was all beyond my control—except for one thing. I refused to sleep in the same bed as Chris and prepared to stay in the guest room that my mother had used before. Even though she had refused to live with us again, the maids still cleaned the room once a week because Chris wanted to be ready in case she ever stayed over.I was already in tha

Flashback15 Years AgoI had stopped counting the days as I waited for Boy to come and pick me up as he had promised. I knew he wouldn’t come as he had said. However, I felt somewhat relieved that at least one of us had managed to get out of this place.What made me sad was the fact that I didn’t know his real name and would never be able to meet him again. I had no idea how long I would be here, as it seemed my parents weren’t going to come and pay the ransom demanded by those thugs. If that were the case, I truly had no clue what would happen next.“You look so miserable now that your tall friend is no longer here.”I looked up when I heard the woman in charge of distributing food speaking to me. She usually remained silent.“I’m glad he got out of here.”“Nonsense!” The woman snorted. “I know you must be disappointed that you weren’t the one who left first.”Maybe I did think about that, but I was still happy that he had gotten out. Unfortunately, I realized that this feeling was s

Cassandra’s POV"You’re not wearing makeup?" Chris asked when he saw me stand up and pick out a sling bag for tonight.Honestly, I didn’t want to go out with him after a long, exhausting day at work, but Chris insisted, and I was tired of hearing his voice for the past three days since we returned from my mother’s house. He kept asking me to go on a date like we used to. To be honest, I wasn’t in the mood to be with him—I even avoided him at the office. But I was getting bored of his daily requests. In the end, I agreed to go with him, even though I had no idea where we were going."Do you not like it when I don’t wear makeup?" I turned to him. "If you don’t like it, then I’ll never wear makeup again.""Haven’t I told you that I love your face the most when you just wake up? From that, you should already know that I like you both with and without makeup." He scoffed and walked over just to pat my head twice. "But honestly, I feel like an old man dating a high school girl when you don’

Christopher’s POVI knew Rebecca might have had a little too much to drink. Maybe that’s why she did something she never would have done sober.But even if she was drunk, there was no justifiable reason for her actions.I lost control and pushed her too hard.For a moment, I just stood there, silently drinking the rest of my wine, while Rebecca got up from the floor where I had shoved her away."Chris—""Don’t say anything," I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.Holding back anger wasn’t my specialty, even though I had been doing it a lot lately—especially with Cassandra.Unfortunately, she was the only exception I could tolerate.Not Rebecca. Not anyone else."I’m still waiting for you… with Bailee."Rebecca lifted her head, her face flushed, her eyes filled with unshed tears."You’re insane!" I couldn’t believe I was calling someone else crazy when my own life was a complete mess."I’ve always waited for you, Chris! You just never saw me!"I quickly covered her mouth. "Shut up! Y

Cassandra’s POVI did it.I don’t know where I got the courage, but I did it—I sent the divorce papers to Chris after disappearing from him for almost two weeks. Not just from him but from everyone. Except for one person. I don’t know how many people are aware that I’ve gone missing, but lately, I’ve been very worried about my mother.I might have truly lost my mind when I decided not to go home after Franco dropped me off that night. Franco had many questions while we were in the car, but there wasn’t much I could explain.I could feel my relationship with Franco growing distant over time. Even now, I can’t trust him as much as I used to, which is why I decided not to ask for his help while hiding.“Don’t forget to drink your milk and try to eat some bread or fruit this morning.”I turned my head and looked at Lilian, an Asian woman with pale skin and narrow eyes.“You don’t have to go through the trouble of making milk for me, Lilian,” I said, stepping closer with an uneasy expressi
