All Chapters of Mr Billionaire wants a bride: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

TRISTAN“You can’t be inviting my work people out like that, especially without telling me she was going to be here.”I was trying my best to be calm when I spoke to Violetta but the words weren’t quite coming out that way. It was hard to keep calm with how angry I was underneath.Violetta didn’t even blink, as she stood near the railing of the yacht, one hand resting lightly on polished teak, the other holding a glass of champagne like this was just another perfectly curated social evening.The ocean stretched endlessly behind her, glittering under the late afternoon sun. Everything about the setting was serene, but there was nothing serene about how I was feeling.“I invited her because I wanted to,” she said simply.“That’s not how this works.”“And how does it work, Tristan?” she asked, tilting her head slightly. “Do I need to file a formal request through your secretary next time?”“That’s not what I meant.”“Then what did you mean?”Her voice was soft, but there was steel under

“That was intense.”Violetta broke the silence first, as she looked almost amused at the whole thing that had just played out in front of them. The last fifteen minutes had been filled with even more hostility than she had witnessed at the boardroom the first time she began to suspect. Now, her suspicions were all but confirmed.The yacht swayed gently beneath them, the ocean dark and endless on either side, but the tension left at the dinner table had not faded with Tristan’s departure. He had said he was going to apologize to Seraphina about his behavior and none of the siblings had stopped him. It was better he did it.Damien leaned back in his chair, watching his sister with the same sharp, knowing expression he had worn since they were children and she had tried to convince him she hadn’t been the one to push him into the pool.“Intense?” he echoed. “That’s what we’re calling it?”Violetta picked up her wineglass and took a slow sip, avoiding his eyes. “It was… passionate.”“The

SERAPHINAI hadn’t realized how much those two days we spent with each other would change things until it was already over. The thought had been circling my mind all morning, refusing to settle. It had been like that for some time now and had only gotten worse after our confrontation in the hallway last night. After her had told me about everything at Obsidian which was actually weighing down on his chest.In a way, I had begun to see everything very differently now. Including the fact that I had reacted horribly.Yes, I had seen him and Violetta kiss. Yes, it had hurt like hell. But instead of asking him about it or even giving him a sliver of trust I had run with the narrative which I actually wanted to run with in my head because in reality it was the easier choice to make. Much easier to hate him than the endless possibilities that had opened up the night we had sex.I had tried my best to push the thoughts to the back of my mind, but all to no avail at the end of the day. It just

TRISTAN“Hope you are enjoying the married life, Mr. Blackwell.” The old man said, as we started the meeting.I had been very curious when my grandfathers lawyers had reached out to me and said that we needed to see as urgently as possible. I knew that it definitely couldn’t be anything good and to be honest I was in no mood for all of this chitchat to start with.I stared at the two men seated at the table that had handled my grandfather’s affairs for decades.““It is going well.” I answered, taking my seat across from them. “If you do not mind, I would like to make this speedy as I have a lot of things to catch up with today.”The older lawyer folded his hands on the table. “That wont be a problem.” He said, “We called you here because something came up. It concerns your grandfather.”Of course…the old man hadn’t trusted anything to chance, not even me.“What has he done this time?” I asked, my patience obviously running thin with how things were going. “I assume this isn’t some s

SERAPHINA“Seraphina, I need you to come get me.”Naomi’s voice was trembling in a way I had never heard before. She was scared and that made me sit up immediately in bed, as my heart began to pound.“What happened?” I asked immediately, “Where are you?”There was noise in the background, a mixture of music and muffled shouting. I couldn’t make out what was being said, but she no doubt was in the club.“I—I don’t want to talk about it here,” she said quickly. “Can you just come?”My jaw clenched.“I’m on my way.”…I had driven like someone in a frenzied rage, as every single bad possibility was running in my head, as my hands tightened around the steering wheel.Who could have touched her? Is she hurt?The questions kept piling up, as I tried to dial Naomis number but she didn’t answer. I knew it definitely was serious for her to have called me instead of brushing it off like she always did.Naomi was usually strong, much stronger than me that was for sure.By the time I pulled into
