บททั้งหมดของ THE BILLIONAIRE'S REBORN WIFE: บทที่ 141 - บทที่ 150

Regan chuckled, then rose to his feet, his expression smoothing into a blank mask as he walked out of the Mayor’s office. He already knew who was behind the sudden turn of events.The black limousine was waiting at the curb. As soon as he slid into the back seat, it pulled away from the building. Regan took out his phone, eyes narrowing. Only one person had the power—and the inclination—to push both the state government and the federal police into the riot situation.He placed the call.“Why did you call?” Alicia’s voice came sharply through the speaker, cool and direct as always.He was used to her tone. He let out a soft chuckle. “You’re the one behind it, right?”“I was,” Alicia replied without hesitation.The corner of Regan’s mouth twitched. “You really are in love with him. A man who can’t even protect himself shouldn’t impress you—”He was cut off by the flat beeping of the ended call.Regan stared at the phone for a second, then laughed under his breath and set it down. His ey

Beatrice’s chest tightened with anxiety. “It isn’t as simple as you make it sound,” she said, her voice trembling.To her surprise, Sam’s face darkened. He sneered, “You’ve already made your choice. You’d rather stay married to hi—”“Listen to me—” Beatrice cut in frantically.But Sam turned his back on her and strode away.Beatrice hurried after him, her heels clicking on the floor. “That’s not what I meant,” she pleaded. “You know very well if I divorce him, everyone will start talking. I’ll become a public enemy—”“That’s not an excuse,” Sam snapped coldly, without even glancing at her.He went inside the house and into his room. Beatrice followed, forcing the door closed behind her.Once they were inside, the words tumbled out of her in a rush. “If I divorce him, I lose everything. A decade of planning, the properties that should belong to Winnie—everything will fall into that evil girl’s hands. I can’t let that happen.”Sam sat down heavily on the edge of his bed and stared at he

Alicia studied Andy’s face. She already knew about his meeting with Regan—knew what they’d discussed.She reached out, cupped his cheek in her palm, and held his gaze. With a soft smile, she said, “I don’t plan to ever leave you. And if a day like that comes, I’ll fight with every breath in me.”Her words melted the last of Andy’s defenses. He caught her wrist, turned her hand, and pressed a kiss to her palm. His eyes darkened as he answered, “I would rather lose you than never see your smile again.”The air between them grew heavy, and Andy refused to drag the conversation on any further. They went upstairs to their bedroom.Later, while they were in bed, Andy’s phone began to ring. He slipped out from under the covers and checked the screen. When he saw Luke’s name, he left the bedroom for his study before picking up.“Luke,” Andy said.“Sir,” Luke’s voice came through the speaker, tight with strain, “we tried investigating your wife, but we received a stern warning. We almost lost o

Beatrice waited ten whole minutes for Winnie to respond, but nothing came. At last Winnie said calmly, “Mom, you’re overthinking things.”“I am not,” Beatrice cut in. “Your recent behavior, the things you say, the way you act—I’m worried we’re going to wake up one day having lost everything we’ve worked so hard for.”Winnie studied her mother, then asked, “By ‘everything,’ you mean Dad’s properties, right?”Beatrice’s face tightened. “Yes.”Winnie shook her head and replied, almost lazily, “We already have shares in the company. I don’t have to work there.”Beatrice’s stomach dropped. The thing she’d been dreading most had already happened—Winnie had completely lost interest in the company. In her mind, it meant Catherine would take over all of Alexander’s assets.Panic flared in her voice. “No. You’re Alexander’s child too. You have to inherit those properties.”Winnie frowned and shut down the conversation, turning her full attention to her phone. She scrolled, expression indifferen

Beatrice stiffened. In that instant, she realised Sam had planned everything. Her eyes widened as she stared at him. She drew in a deep breath and asked, “What do you intend to gain from this?”Sam chuckled. “My daughter, Beatrice, do you take me for a fool? You never planned to let her acknowledge me as her biological father. And you don’t intend to divorce Alexander either. Tell me the truth—over the years, have you grown to love him?”Beatrice froze, shocked. She couldn’t explain it. Every time she thought about divorcing Alexander, a wave of discomfort and restlessness would wash over her. The feeling was indescribable.“You don’t even realise you’ve fallen in love with that bastard,” Sam added with a mocking laugh. He shook his head. “If I were you, I’d stop denying my true feelings…”Before he could finish, Beatrice cut him off sharply. “No, I don’t have any feelings for him. You are the man I’ve always loved. All these years, I have never stopped loving you. I always loved you,
