Semua Bab The Billionaire's Ugly Wife[English] : Bab 21 - Bab 30

Chapter 21The next place Fabian and I visited was the amusement park. The sun was high in the sky, and there weren’t many people around since it was already noon. Fabian bought tickets for us to enter, and as soon as we stepped inside, we were greeted by the colorful sights of various rides and cheerful mascots dancing around.We quickly drew attention—not because Fabian was a celebrity or because of my looks, but because we were both in disguise. “We look like kidnappers,” I said, tugging at Fabian’s sleeve and leaning in so he could hear me better.Fabian chuckled and replied, “I could give you as many kids as you want.”“We don’t need to take any other kids,” I shot back, my cheeks flushing as I playfully hit him on the arm. That wasn’t what I meant!I grabbed Fabian’s arm and led him to a nearby stall where ice cream was being sold. The sweet aroma wafting from the stall made my mouth water.“Do you have cash?” I asked, glancing at him as we stood in front of the stall, watchin

Chapter 23As expected, many guests arrived at the party—famous actors and actresses, along with some producers and directors. Having been in the industry for a long time, I knew most of them, many of whom I had worked with on various dramas.“Mom, can I have a macaron? I want some!” France asked. We were at a table, and Fabian had stepped away for a moment. “Sure, I’ll go with you,” I replied.I stood up to accompany France. There were many children at the buffet table, but I didn’t want to let France go there alone in case he got lost.Holding France’s hand, we made our way to the table, and I started picking out some food for him.“Sissyy, Soniaa~”Sophia called out to me in a sing-song voice. I turned, holding my plate, and saw her happily approaching. “Hey! I’ve been looking for you! Did you just arrive? I told you to come with us,” I said. We had come from the same mansion, but we left earlier because Sophia said she would wait for her ride.“Duhh! I didn’t want to walk the

Chapter 25The commotion had drawn attention from the venue staff. A few of them rushed over, concerned, but Fabian quickly stepped in to ease the situation.“It’s alright,” he assured them with a calm smile. “Everything’s under control.”Sonia turned her head, eyes landing on Amara—visibly trembling and mortified, her head bowed low in shame.“I think I have a spare dress in the car,” Sonia offered gently. “It might fit you.”Amara stiffened, surprised, and slowly looked up at her. Embarrassment clung to her, but before she could respond, Sonia raised a finger with a playful yet firm expression.“How are you even an actress if you don’t have a single drop of confidence? You need to learn to say yes when someone offers help. In this industry, if you want to rise, you grab every legal opportunity that comes your way.”Amara went still, as if Sonia’s words had struck something deep inside her. Fabian and Sophia, standing a few feet away, couldn’t help but exchange a knowing smile.Sonia

Chapter 27I honestly didn’t expect that Fabian’s parents would treat me so warmly. I held my face in my hands, feeling the weight of their gaze, particularly Fabian’s mother, who was watching me intently. I turned to her, feeling a mix of nerves and gratitude.“Fabian… he always puts others before himself. I often worry about that boy and his future partner because of it,” Fabian's mother said, her voice soft yet filled with concern. My heart melted at her words, and I replied, “Fabian is just a naturally good person.”“I sometimes doubt if Fabian is even real, if he truly exists,” I confessed. The kindness he showed and everything he did for me made me question his existence; it terrified me.I placed my hand over my chest, feeling the anxiety building within me. After everything I had been through with my ex-husband, I was afraid of loving again and trusting someone new.“Take your time,” she said gently.I paused, looking back at Fabian's mother. Her expression was tender as she r

Chapter 29I walked into the hall, feeling one hundred percent confident. But the moment I finished reading the full script—the story, the message—it made me want to back out.It wasn’t that I doubted my ability. It was the weight of the story. It hit too close to home.Carrying the script, I quietly left the room. We still had two hours before the audition officially started, and some of the staff allowed us to step out for a break. I found a bench and sat, hoping the fresh air would calm my nerves.A few minutes later, Fabian arrived, carrying France in his arms, worry written all over his face as he approached me.“What’s wrong, honey? You look pale.”He gently cupped my cheek. I held his hand and handed him the script.“I just wanted to ask you something about the script… Is it okay if I take the female lead? It’s just—”“No.”Fabian’s firm tone stopped me mid-sentence. But moments later, his expression softened.“No, it’s not okay... not as your husband.”My heart sank. I looked
