Claimed By The Billioniare I Once Rejected のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

Elena’s POV:I was sitting next to Gregg in the car, but I kept thinking about the few minutes I spent with Adrian in the Malcolm Mall.My lips touched my dress on the shoulder as I felt the softness of the fabric. It was comforting, along with the thought that it was handpicked by Adrian.We used to buy a lot of things for each other when we were in school, but we never bought dresses for one another.I remember buying him a mini car with which we drove together in the Claimer mansion.He learned driving at a young age because of that mini car.He would do various impressive feats with the car.Those were good times where we spent time together without a worry in the world.“What are you smiling so much for?” Gregg asked.“Why? I can’t even smile without telling you the reason?” I retorted.Gregg went silent for a bit. “I am like a river, Elena. Originating at the top of the mountain, I kept traveling ahead without looking back, but then came a point where I had to split up and go in

3P POV:After Elena left the living room, Cassandra sat back on the couch.“She wouldn’t do something stupid like hanging herself, would she?” Leonard’s voice contained a bit of panic. “Maybe I should talk to her.”“It’s fine,” Cassandra put her hand on his hand and stopped him. “She doesn’t have any other options, so she’s threatening us with self-harm. That’s typical childish behavior. It’s only going to last for five more days… until the wedding day.”“I hope so,” Leonard sighed. “Gregg told me that the wedding will be hosted at a cafe. Did you know?”“It’s the same cafe where Gregg first bought food for Elena long back,” Cassandra explained. “That place must mean a lot to him.”“But still… How can marriage happen at a cafe?”“The security will be tight, so don’t worry about anything,” Cassandra assured him. “Forget about that unknown boyfriend of Elena, even an ant won’t be able to enter the cafe without permission.”“Mm…”“These five days…” she gently rubbed his hand. “I want you

Gregg stepped out of the car and approached the black car that was five feet away.He knocked on the glass window.Adrian took the earphones out and looked up through the window.He was surprised to see Gregg.He lowered the window.“Open the door,” Gregg said.Adrian paused for a moment and then opened the door.Gregg entered the car, holding a wedding card in one hand.The traffic signal turned green, and the car moved on.Atlas followed their car while keeping some distance.“What are you doing in this city?” Gregg asked with a bit of a friendly smile.“Here to make a business deal,” Adrian said. “What about you?”Gregg raised the wedding card in his hand. “My time to marry has finally come. And it’s with the one I have always loved.”“And who would that be?” Adrian asked, hiding his emotions particularly well.“You know her,” Gregg cheekily smiled and gave him the wedding card.Adrian already knew what was inside, but he still opened it, acting like he didn’t know.After seeing El

After Adrian left in his car, Victor returned to the meeting room.“This is the biggest deal of our company,” he told his daughter. “Make sure nothing goes wrong tomorrow.”“Sure, Dad.”Victor looked at Ryan. “Not bad.”Ryan smiled and said, “Thank you.”Just then, a person entered the room.Vivian and Victor recognized him.“You are… Gregg Huefner. What brought the son of a mining king to our humble company?” Victor greeted him with a smile. “Please sit down.”“I saw Adrian Claimer,” Gregg said. “What’s he here for?”“To make a deal with us,” Victor said.“He owns a private equity firm,” Gregg responded. “He purchased a hospital five months back, and from what I heard, the quality of care has gone down. If it comes in the news, his reputation will be affected.”Victor’s expression changed. “You’re talking as if that news is going to come soon.”“No, what I heard is only a rumor,” Gregg said. “So, it may or may not happen. I just wanted to warn you once, that’s all.”“Thank you for yo

After Leonard left the room, Cassandra met him. “Did you soften her attitude?”Leonard sighed. “The opposite.”“Huh? What happened?”“Let’s give her some breathing space. I’m sure she’ll change her mind.”“No, I’ll have Gregg send her some gifts,” Cassandra said. “I also talked with Elena’s friends. They said they will visit and talk her into marriage.”“Good,” Leonard patted her shoulder and walked away.She could see that he was hurt by something, so she said, “We’re doing this for your daughter.”Leonard stopped and glanced over his shoulder. “Our daughter.”“Y-Yeah,” Cassandra’s lips pursed together. “Of course.”Leonard kept walking.Cassandra touched her forehead once and exhaled audibly.She went to her room and took a headache tablet.Later that day.As Cassandra had planned, many of Elena’s friends came to her home and talked with her.Elena was able to pass the time because of her friends, but she did not like it when they told her how great Gregg was.Their praise felt arti
