All Chapters of The Billionaire's Detective: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

ROSEAfter leaving my uncle's place, I drive to Auntie Anna's house. She's my dad's immediate younger sibling.Like my other uncle, she tends to be on good terms with my dad and my mom, but she never visits because of how rude my mom can be.Upon arriving there, I realize my dad has told her the same thing he told my uncle. I'm not shocked; she believes everything he tells her to the point that I find it hard to convince her that literally everything he has said is a lie.Thankfully, after much persuasion, she allows me to explain myself. When I do, she promises to talk to my dad, which I object to. Calling my dad and pleading on my behalf would only cause me more problems because my dad would never do anything he's asked to. You do what he has in mind; calling him and telling him is literally a waste of time."I've always known your father to be strong-willed, but I never for once expected this from him," I can remember my auntie saying.When I get home, I'm surprised to find Jessica

ROSE"It's no one... trust me, it's not someone you know about," I lie."Don't tell me that, Mom... I clearly heard everything you said... so tell me!" she says authoritatively.From her expression, I can tell she's serious. She walks closer to me, then drops the tray of coffee on the bed and moves back."Is this how you plan to continue lying to me?""No, dear, I'm not lying to you, trust me..." I try convincing her, but she isn't buying any of it.At this point, I think I should tell her everything she needs to know, but my mind keeps telling me it isn't the right thing to do."There's no need to lie to me because I already know everything... I was just waiting for you to tell me, but it seems you are not ready to tell me," she says, blinking repeatedly. I can see she's trying to hold back tears."It's not what you think, trust me. This is way more complicated than you can imagine... and you wouldn't understand, trust me." I stand up from the bed to go meet her."And what makes you

ROSEI barge in, and just like I expected, it's the same idiot I've warned dozens of times.I thought they broke up. What is he doing here?I don't wait for him to explain; I just drag him away from Chloe and pounce on him. The fact that I've warned him before never to lay a hand on my friend is enough reason for him not to try it again. But he does anyway."Let go of me, you foolish bitch!" he curses as he struggles to break free. He'll only be free if I want him to. Otherwise, he's not stepping an inch away from me.I make sure to design his face with blows. I'm not going to leave him until he's bleeding from his mouth and nose. Thank God Chloe understands the assignment; she doesn't dare come to pull me away because I might end up venting on her as well for being dumb."Are you just gonna stand there and watch your crazy friend treat me like this?" he says, breathing heavily.I land another hard punch on his face, then murmur, "This is for calling me crazy when in reality, you're t

ROSE"Wait here. I'll go check what's going on outside," I tell Chloe, then turn to Arabella. "And you too." I then turn and storm out.I get to the sitting room, and the noise only increases."How dare she lay a hand on you?" I hear them say as I walk closer."She only did it because she knew he couldn't fight her back," I hear another say. Bold of them; even if it were someone else, I would do more."Yeah, if she's as strong as she claims, then let her come out and fight us all," another adds.I drop my hand on the doorknob to open the door, but then an idea crosses my mind. No matter how strong I am, I can never fight them off. They're too many.I quickly withdraw my hand from the doorknob and take out my phone from my trouser pocket, then dial Dante's number.I need to let him know before I do anything. I know he wasn't the one who sent me here, but I have to. It's sad I have to drag him into my mess."I've been trying to reach you. Where are you?" he asks. I move my phone from my

ROSEI place a gentle knock on the door since it's locked.Locking our door in broad daylight isn't something I've seen them do, so what changed?After standing for three minutes, the maid opens the door and then mutters, "Good afternoon, Miss Rose." I throw her a glare before storming past her. The same old maid who used to ruin things between my sister and me—why is she acting nice all of a sudden?"Miss Rose..." she calls, running after me. I have to pause and then turn back to stare at her."What happened? I heard you. I chose not to answer. Don't tell me you're going to report me to my parents," I pause and then continue, "like you've been doing for the past 15 years." She bends her head in shame. Yeah, I want her to feel the pain I felt. Back then, she did everything humanly possible to make sure she gained my sister's favor simply because my parents favored her most. Seeing her act nice pisses me off; I prefer her acting like the villain she is."I'm so sorry, Miss Rose. I know
