All Chapters of Forced Married with the Ugly Billionaire: Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

Chapter 111NicoleNathan whipped out his phone and made a call. A few minutes later, five guys in black suits showed up, forcing the reporter and the crowd to leave.I seized the moment to slip away while Nathan was busy chatting with Trish, telling her to leave or his men would drag her out.As I headed to the elevator, my phone kept ringing. I didn't need to check who it was; it was either Dad or Kendra, probably having figured out Nathan's true identity.When I got out of the elevator, everyone was staring at me, including Savanna, who looked totally shocked. I brushed past them and went to my table to tidy up. I opened my laptop, ready to work, when Savanna came over."Nicole, we just saw the news!" she said, and I felt my cheeks heat up. "Is it true that you're Mr. Maxwell's wife, the CEO of Maxwell Group?"I was at a loss for words. Did I really need to confirm it when everyone in New York already knew?"Do I really have to confirm it? You already saw the news," I said, biting

Chapter 113NathanI stood on the street, my eyes fixed on the house ahead. Here I was, in one of the most exclusive and hidden neighborhoods in Los Angeles, right in front of Trish and Drake's new place.My heart was pounding as I tightened my fists to my sides. I still couldn't wrap my head around the fact that I was about to see them again-sure, I ran into Trish recently, but seeing them both together would hit differently. Those two former friends of mine who had broken me without a second thought.I hadn't sought them out or confronted them before; there was nothing left to ask. It was painfully obvious. But now, just when I had decided to commit to Nicole for life, here I was.I walked up to the gate, jaw tight, and rang the bell, bracing myself for their arrival. The seconds dragged on, making me feel nauseous as I tried to steady my nerves.I wished Nicole was with me, reassuring me that everything would be alright, that we were meant to be, and that I didn't have to go throug

Chapter 115NathanTrish took a shaky breath and nodded as she slowly withdrew her hand from mine. "I get it," she said hoarsely. "I understand now. I'm really sorry for what happened the other day. My head was all over the place. I never meant to cause any trouble for you and your wife. Please let her know I'm sorry." I got up from the chair, ready to leave. It felt wrong to stay even a moment longer. It was just the two of us in this house that belonged to Drake and her. Trish was clearly in a fragile state, and I didn't want to be the reason for another meltdown."Hold on," Trish stammered, suddenly standing up and grabbing my arm to pull me back into my seat. "P-please, you came all this way. T-there's so much I still want to share with you, to explain. It's really important to me." She looked desperate, as if my leaving would break her. Tears streamed down her face. "Just stay a little longer. I swear I won't keep you after I tell you everything. There's something crucial I need

Chapter 117NicoleI bit my lip after finally getting the last balloon up on the living room ceiling. A satisfied grin spread across my face as I took in all the decorations. I wasn't sure if Nathan would appreciate this surprise, but I have to say, the birthday decor really brought his place to life. Nathan was the type of guy who buried himself at work to escape his sadness. He had those nightmares he wished he could erase. But I was hoping that chapter was behind him now. No one should have to live with that kind of pain and loneliness. When I glanced over at Landon, I frowned. Even with this exciting birthday bash for Nathan that I was so pumped about, he seemed off. He was perched on a stool at the kitchen counter, glued to his phone. He looked restless, his legs bouncing up and down like he was anxiously waiting for something. His face showed a mix of anger and disappointment. What was up with him? "Landon," I called out, and he snapped his head up to look at me. "Are you

Chapter 119NicoleI was so anxious that all I wanted was to hear Nathan come through the front door. Landon's gaze softened, revealing the sadness he couldn't hide.Seeing that made me want to cry because I knew he understood. Given his intelligence, there was no way he didn't know about the articles. He stayed silent, not wanting to hurt me, and he wasn't trying to comfort me either, because the truth was undeniable."I get it," he said, swallowing hard as he looked at me one last time before turning to leave.I let out a sigh as he disappeared from view. I adjusted my pillow, lay back down, and pulled the blanket up to my chest. My eyes were fixed on the ceiling, which was adorned with balloons and letters wishing Nathan a happy birthday.When I planned this surprise, I was so excited to see his joyful expression. But now, I couldn't shake the worry of whether I'd ever see him again.Come on, Nicole. What are you doing? Stop letting negative thoughts creep in, as if crying in bed f
