Semua Bab Into His Mistress's Body: Billionaire's Heartless Wife : Bab 121 - Bab 130

Yvonne,"What?" I froze, my spine locking against the chair as if something invisible had pinned me there. My eyes widened before I could control them. Did he just say he needed me? The word echoed in my ears. I swallowed, my throat dry and tight, trying to understand what he had just said.The tone in his voice was not casual. It was not polite. It carried something I failed to name. It slipped under my ribs and curled around my heart. My fingers slowly curled into my lap, nails pressing into my skin as if I needed the sting to stay grounded. I lifted my gaze sharply to meet his."I am not joking," I whispered. My voice trembled despite my effort to steady it. I could hear the faint rasp in it. "I want to stay by Aurora's side. I—""You can stay," he assured immediately. His voice dropped lower this time, rougher, more personal. He leaned back into the chair, exhaling as if something heavy had finally lifted from his chest. "We both need you, Ms. Rogers. We both grew attached to you.

Yvonne,That night, I fell asleep with Aurora, holding her closer to my chest, feeling every ounce of warmth she gave me. My fingers stayed tangled in her soft hair, as if I was afraid she would disappear if I loosened my grip. Who knew that the possibility of her being my biological daughter would ever be placed on the table like this? The thought kept circling in my mind until exhaustion finally dragged me under.She didn’t move that night. She didn’t wake up even once. She just slept the way she used to when I was Veronica, quiet and peaceful, her tiny breaths fanning against my collarbone. Every time she exhaled, my chest tightened.The next morning,I was preparing breakfast when Dante came out wearing a bathrobe, a towel in his hand as he wiped his damp hair. Droplets slid down the side of his neck, disappearing beneath the collar.His abs were visible through the bathrobe. I looked away, feeling a knot in my stomach. The sight was unusual since he was usually fully dressed and

Daniel, “Next time you use that mouth too much, remember this. I will make sure you regret every word.” I rose from the bed without looking at her, the mattress dipping as I shifted my weight away from her body. Pearl remained beneath the sheets, tangled in white fabric, her breathing uneven and shallow. I did not bother to check her expression. Whether she was angry, ashamed, or frightened made no difference to me. I reached down and gathered my clothes from the floor with steady movements. My shirt. My trousers. My belt. Each piece was lifted, shaken once, then worn with deliberate care. I buttoned my shirt from the bottom up, fingers calm and precise. The metal of my belt buckle clicked softly as I fastened it. I adjusted my cuffs and rolled my shoulders slightly to settle the fabric into place. Behind me, there was a faint sound, perhaps the shift of sheets or the quiet hitch of breath she was trying to suppress. I ignored it. Tsk. Acting innocent now. If she had not p

DanteTaylor came in like a storm disguised as celebration.The door hadn’t even fully closed behind him when the scent of champagne drifted through the hallway, sharp and crisp. In one hand, he carried a dark green bottle, droplets sliding down its chilled surface. In the other, a white pastry box tied with a pink ribbon swung slightly with each step.He paused in the middle of the living room, eyes scanning the space with a sharpness that didn’t match the festive items in his hands.“Didn’t you tell me she would be here? Where is she?”He placed the champagne and cake carefully on the coffee table, though the way his jaw tightened betrayed his impatience.“She is with Aurora. Let me call her.”“I didn’t expect you to invite her over.” He dropped onto the couch, leaning back as if he owned the place. “Is she beautiful?”I shot him a look that could have frozen boiling water.His lips twitched. “What? I’m just asking.”I didn’t bother replying. Instead, I turned toward the poolside do

Yvonne,“What? You want me to go with you as your date?”Taylor’s words made me freeze mid-breath. For a second, I wasn’t even sure I had heard him correctly. My fingers tightened against the armrest, and my eyes instantly darted to Dante. The shift in his expression was immediate. His face fell, not dramatically, not explosively, but in that quiet, dangerous way that meant something inside him had been struck.“She is not!” Dante’s reaction was sharp and possessive. It wasn’t loud, but it carried weight. The intensity in his voice made my stomach twist, heat rising to my cheeks before I could stop it.“Why not?” Taylor shot back, equally firm. “You can’t take her like this. It will give Daniel another victim. We can’t risk her safety.”He wasn’t wrong. That was the frustrating part. Right now, I wasn’t on Daniel’s direct list. I was involved, yes, but I wasn’t officially positioned as a threat. He didn't know me. I didn't even know if he had any connection with this soul swapping.A
