Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Billionaire She Rejected.: Kabanata 131 - Kabanata 140

Michael’s POVI stood in the hallway for a long moment, the weight of what had just happened pressing down on me like a physical force. The air felt thick, and I could still smell her perfume clinging faintly to my shirt. I wanted it gone. All of it.Pulling my phone out, I called the hotel manager. My voice came out flat and controlled, though inside I was anything but calm.“Send a new tuxedo to my second suite,” I said. “Yes, sir. Right away.”I ended the call without another word and immediately contacted the doctor assigned to this branch. Every hotel I owned had its own private infirmary with top medical staff available twenty-four hours a day. I gave her brief instructions on what to do for Sienna and kept my explanation short. The less said, the better.Once the calls were done, I entered the elevator and pressed the button to my second suite. My reflection in the metal doors stared back at me, eyes red and tired, jaw clenched tight. I barely recognized the man looking back.

Zara’s POVThe cool evening breeze brushed softly against my skin as I walked into the restaurant where Sienna had asked to meet. The faint hum of laughter and the quiet clinking of glasses filled the air. Everything seemed normal, but something about this meeting didn’t sit right with me.She had texted me earlier in the day, saying we needed to meet urgently. I could have ignored it, but curiosity and instinct wouldn’t let me. Knowing Sienna, an “urgent meeting” usually meant something twisted was brewing. And as they say, it’s best to keep your enemies closer.My eyes scanned the room until they landed on her. She sat at the far corner, looking completely at ease, one leg crossed elegantly over the other, her eyes glued to her phone. I took a deep breath and walked toward her table, my heels clicking softly against the tiled floor.When I reached her, I didn’t wait for an invitation. I sat down across from her and dropped my bag gently on the table, my gaze steady on her face.She

Riley’s POV The elevator doors slid open with a soft chime, and the familiar sight that greeted me immediately brought a smile to my face. Cole and Myra were standing just outside the building, waiting as they always did. The moment they saw me, both faces lit up, Cole’s grin wide and bright, Myra’s softer but filled with the same warmth. Myra was never one to overdo things, and that was one of the reasons I valued her so much. She didn’t pretend or flatter unnecessarily. She was just real. Before I could even reach the car, Cole was already walking toward me with that easy confidence of his. He reached for my bag, the one filled with small gifts I brought back for everyone, and took it from my hand before I could protest. “Good morning, Miss Riley. Welcome back,” he said with his usual cheer. “Thank you, Cole. It feels good to be back.” We exchanged a few more polite words before he rushed ahead to open the car door for me. I had long stopped trying to convince him that I

Riley’s POV I woke up earlier than usual, my eyes fluttering open to the faint glow that was beginning to seep through the curtains. The world outside was still half-asleep, the horizon painted in dark shades of blue and gray. I sat there in silence, staring out at the dim sky, my thoughts tangled in a storm I couldn’t quiet. The image of Grandma’s face from last night replayed in my head, the softness in her eyes, the tremor in her voice when she told me about her illness. My chest tightened painfully as her words echoed again and again. Cancer. I blinked rapidly, trying to hold back the tears, but they came anyway, spilling silently down my cheeks. My throat burned as I whispered a quiet prayer, my voice barely audible in the stillness of the room. “Please, God,” I murmured. “Don’t take another person from me...Grandma is all I have left.” I let out a shaky breath, clutching my blanket tighter around me as though it could shield me from the reality pressing in. After a few mome

Riley's POV.As I walked past the reception desk, a thought crossed my mind. Since I was already at the Gray Hospital, it would be wise to complete my monthly medical checkup rather than postpone it again. I turned back and made my way through the long, clean corridor toward Dr. Rayes’ office. Michael had told me several times that if I ever needed any medical assistance, I should see him directly since he was the family doctor and also one of the hospital’s most trusted physicians.When I arrived at his office, I paused at the door and saw through the glass that he had just finished with his last patient. My steps faltered slightly when I realized who it was. Grandma.She was standing beside Dr. Rayes, her hand resting gently in his as he helped her walk toward the hallway. Behind them were two other doctors, both wearing white coats and carrying files, clearly part of the medical team overseeing her treatment. My heart squeezed painfully at the sight.I hadn’t expected to meet her
