Alle Kapitel von CLAIMED BY THE MYSTERIOUS BILLIONAIRE : Kapitel 41 – Kapitel 50

AUTHOR'S POV Andrew waited a couple of minutes for Belle to come out of Zalden's office but when the minutes stretched into what seemed like forever, he became worried.Knowing Zalden's temper, he feared he might make things worse and decided to intervene.He pushed the door open without knocking, only to find Zalden standing between Belle's legs. Her cheeks flushed in an instant, and Zalden retreated his hands that were lying on her lips just a second ago.Andrew cleared his throat. He didn’t need an explanation. The tension in the room spoke for itself. “I'm sorry for interrupting, I'll just leave this here,” he dropped the file in his hands on the couch.“There's nothing to interrupt,” Zalden's tone was clipped. He picked up the handkerchief on his desk to wipe his fingers, fixed his tie before turning back to Andrew. “What do you want?”Belle's cheeks flushed from embarrassment, as she remained frozen in the same spot. She had expected Zalden to protect her. To ask Andrew to leav

BELLE I turned at the sound of the voice. My eyes bore into Rowan's piercing glare and I couldn't help the spark of anger that jolted through my stomach.“What the hell are you doing here?” I asked with a frown. He could deceive the world, but Rowan and I both know that we never went down that lane. He never touched me and I probably wouldn't have become a single mother at this stage if it weren't for his greed.Part of me wanted to accuse him of my predicament because in all honesty, he was the reason I am in all of these problems and I blamed myself for ever loving a prick like him.“What does it look like? Saving you.” He went to meet the doctor, ignoring my presence, and for a moment it felt like I was the one overreacting before Kara chipped in.“Who said you can be here? How the hell do you even know she was here? Are you stalking her now?” Kara’s eyes flared with anger but what angered me even more was this bastard using my desperate moment to steal attention.“If anyone didn

AUTHOR'S POV The room went still as the doctor's words hung in the air. Belle looked between Rowan and Kara, her expression laced with confusion and at that moment, she didn't even know what to believe anymore.“Just a moment ago, you said Rowan was a match,” her voice came out as a whisper. “And now you're requesting the father. Can you explain exactly what that means?”Kara held her hands, giving them a gentle squeeze, calming her down, while Belle's head snapped between the doctor and Rowan.“I said he was a partial match,” he raised his voice slightly. “Mr. Rowan is a universal donor… we used his blood to buy time, but it won't hold. For her survival, we need her father or a direct relative. Your choice.”Kara's eyes twitched into a scowl. “Maybe we'd have done the right thing if you hadn't come here with the impression that this ass,” she said, pointing to Rowan. “Is her father and turned him into your Messiah.”“Don't you dare speak to me in such a tone,” Rowan turned to face K

ZALDEN “Congratulations, you're the father,” The director’s words echoed in my head, and for the first time in my life, words became too hard for me to process. I stared into space, allowing the words to sink in my head at least a thousand times before my head snapped to Belle, who was now squirming on the floor.She looked everywhere else in the room except my face. My gaze shifted from her to the innocent child lying on the bed, and the only question that popped into my head was, “Why?”How dare she hide this from me? She carried this alone. Why didn't she come to me? Was she ashamed to call me the father of her children? She didn't seem to mind earlier when Rowan claimed them. If I hadn't found out, she could have lost the child. My baby.My chest tightened at the thought as my head snapped back to her. A surge of rage coursed through my body, and all I wanted was an explanation.“Care to explain?” My voice came out sharper than I intended. She flinched at my words, eyes glimme

ZALDENI slammed the door shut behind me as I stormed out of the ward. My pulse was pounding so fast, I could feel my heart hammering against my rib.“Mr. Marlowe!” A voice called from behind but I didn't slow down until the rush of cold breeze hit my face outside. My hands gripped the cold hospital wall until my knuckles turned white. How dare she? My stomach churned as her words replayed in my head all over again. Service. Stranger. No kids here. The fuck was that supposed to mean? How could she try to erase me from my children's lives?I saved the girl before I even knew she was mine and now she thinks she can strip me off my right as their father?The sound of footsteps echoed behind me, when the director appeared in front of me, short of breath. “Mr. Marlowe, I have been calling after you for a while.”I wasn't sure I was ready to hear anything he had to say, but I forced the word out “What is it?”“Jamie. Do you think…” His voice became faint in my head and the only thing
