All Chapters of Claimed by the Obsessive Billionaires: Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

Rafael Moretti~•~“Where exactly are we going, boss?”I kissed my teeth. “What? Are you tired of driving already?”“I wouldn’t say I’m tired,” Marco said. “But gas isn’t free and we’re about to run out.”“Good thing it doesn’t come out of your pocket then?”Marco sighed. “Are we really going to drive around all night like this? We’ve been at this for hours. Should I take you home?”My tongue poked the inside of my cheek. I didn’t want to go home. I didn’t want to see Serena and Nikolai right now. I knew I would end up arguing with them if I did so it was best to get a bit of space, but Marco was right. He’d driven until the sun set. I didn’t blame him for being tired.“Besides,” he added. “Just because you’re fighting with your girlfriend doesn’t mean you need to make mine mad at me too.”I narrowed my eyes. He flinched. I sighed. “My father’s place.”“What?”“Take me to my father’s house.”“Oh, okay.”He made a turn at the nearest U-turn and started driving toward the Moretti estate

Serena Vale~•~“Marcus Grant is conveniently out of the country for now,” Rafael announced during breakfast the next day. “He’s definitely guilty.”“Of course, he is. I wouldn’t sue without solid evidence. I’m not stupid.” Nikolai responded.I smiled at the exchange. One thing about the men that I loved so much was that they didn’t let disagreements stay that way for long. They could fight in the afternoon and be cool the next day.“But you would sue without telling your partner? Yeah, not stupid at all.” Rafael fired back. “Thankfully, my father wasn’t at home last night or he would have grilled me about a decision I knew nothing about in the first place.”“You would have made the same decision though.”“Yes, but I like to be mentally prepared.”“You would have argued for twenty-four hours before you eventually agreed. I like to think I saved us both the time and the debate.”“Saved us,” Rafael echoed. “How generous.”I bit the inside of my cheek to keep from laughing. They were alr

Nikolai Vetrov~•~I was in the middle of a talk with Rafael when my phone suddenly rang. I stared at it, then back at him.“Who’s calling?”I showed him my screen. It was Serena.He frowned and checked his phone. “Why is she calling you and not me? Put it on speaker.”I shook my head with a chuckle, but answered the call and put it on speaker. “Hi, baby. Is anything wrong?”There was a pause on the other end before she spoke. “Why do you assume something is wrong?”“Because you never call me while you’re at work.”“Oh,” she chuckled. “Well, Marcus just called me.” Rafael and I sat up straighter at those words. “What did he say?” Rafael questioned.“You’re with Rafael?” She asked.“Yeah, he’s listening.”“Well, Marcus was basically implying that he’ll drag me into the lawsuit. He thinks you found out because I told you. I guess he had a whole plan for that in case it happened. I recorded the call as soon as I heard his voice.” She explained.My lips tugged in a smile. Serena was such

Nikolai Vetrov~•~I woke up before my alarm.I always did on this day.For a moment, I considered rolling over, pulling the blanket back over my body, and pretending this day didn’t mean anything different. It never worked, but the thought came every year anyway.I exhaled slowly and got up.Usually, Rafael liked to go with me, but I wanted to be alone this time so I didn’t bother him. I just went straight to the shower, got dressed, and quietly left the house.The sun hadn’t risen by the time I arrived at the floral shop. I bought two bouquets of white lilies. I wasn’t sure what my father liked, but he used to buy white lilies for my mom when they were still alive.The florist smiled when she saw me. I came on the same day every year and I bought the same flowers every year too. She was used to me and usually prepared my bouquet before I arrived.The drive to the cemetery was quiet. I didn’t bother to turn on music as I drove. I loved the quietness that came with being alone in the

Rafael Moretti~•~Nikolai was struggling.It was pretty obvious to everyone around him. The fact that he had to keep up court appearances added to his pressure, which was why I wasn’t surprised that he didn’t care about anything else except the case.Thankfully, it came to an end a week later. Douglas had dragged it on for as long as he could until he couldn’t anymore and as expected, the judge ruled in our favor.Marcus paid compensation that almost bankrupted his company and still had to step down because nobody trusted him anymore. Either way, his company had already taken a hit and I doubted it’d be able to stand again whether or not he was CEO.As for Serena’s ex-friend, Noelle, she also had huge sums to pay in fines since she was directly connected to the mole. Most of his payments came from her account. She was too stupid to see that Marcus had been using her, but at least she wasn’t stupid enough to take all the blame.She even tried to reach out to Serena to help plead her c
