Betrayed By The Billionaire のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1161 - チャプター 1170

Xavier's face grew colder by the second, his entire body radiating a terrifying chill.Seth Rollins's words left him with no retort, because they were true. If he died, he would leave nothing behind. He would become nothing more than a small fragment of Chloe Bishop's long life, a memory she might recall only once in a while.But Seth? She would carry his child to term, watch that child grow day by day. And every time the child asked about his father, she would think of him.Seth dropped his smirk, finished the wine in his glass, and when he looked at Xavier again, his gaze had turned razor-sharp."Admit it, Xavier. The real loser is you. Even if you survive tonight, you and Chloe Bishop will never be happy. Because you will never forget the sight of her lying in my arms.""And if you die, she will not have the courage to avenge you. Because I am not just the father of her child, I am also the Brother Seth she has loved and relied on since she was a little girl.""You can say whatever

Back at the Bennett estate, dawn had fully broken. The sun was rising at the edge of the sky.The estate was perfectly still. The night had finally passed safely, she just didn't know if Xavier Grayson was already on his way back.Mrs. Bennett hadn't slept a wink either. When she heard that Chloe Bishop had returned, she hurried over to meet her. "Chloe, there's news. There's news!"A flicker of life returned to Chloe's pale face because she saw the smile at the corners of Mrs. Bennett's lips. "What happened?"Mrs. Bennett's eyes were red, but she was crying tears of joy. "Thank God—that Seth Rollins was shot and fell into the sea. Your Mr. Bennett and Xavier are on their way back. We don't know the details yet."On their way back...Hearing those words, the knot in Chloe's heart finally began to loosen. But still, she couldn't quite bring herself to smile.Seth Rollins had been shot and had fallen into the sea, most likely he was already lying at the bottom of the ocean.No one wante

In that last message, she had written: "Xavier, listen to me. I am telling you one last time, the baby is yours. I am over two months pregnant now. It happened that night at the old mansion. It is your child. So you have to come back alive. You cannot let our baby be born without a father."But Xavier had never even seen that message.Chloe Bishop was terrified. She was terrified that he would die on that operating table while still believing the child belonged to Seth Rollins."Can I go in?"She suddenly asked.Alfred Bennett frowned. "Chloe, let us just wait out here."Lan's expression was grim as well. "The surgery is still in progress, Miss Chloe. Going in now would distract the doctors."To everyone else, her request seemed unreasonable, even thoughtless.Jace didn't bother to hide his disapproval. "What for? You are not a doctor. You would not be able to help anyway."Chloe dropped the idea after hearing that.She was afraid that rushing in might disrupt the surgery.Not long af

Tim let the others come in briefly to see Xavier, then shooed them all out. Soon, only Xavier and Chloe Bishop remained in the bedroom.When Lace and Vincent arrived back, they found Lan surrounded by a crowd.Vincent went to find Tim, while Lace squeezed through the group and spotted Lan sitting on a stone chair, a cigarette between his fingers as he exhaled smoke into the air.Lace was about to ask what was going on when he heard Jace pressing urgently, "Lan, talk to us. What's really going on between this Chloe and Xavier?"Lan frowned. After a long pause, he finally replied, "Exactly what you're thinking."The faces around him turned glum, one after another.After a few moments, sighs broke out:"How could Xavier be so blind?""I need to reboot my brain and reconsider everything I know about Xavier.""No, seriously, what's so special about this Chloe?""Yeah, what does she have that could make Xavier even glance her way?"Lace listened in confusion. Were they saying Xavier was pla

Chloe Bishop had slept six or seven hours today, had eaten a decent meal, and Tim had given her an injection. Her body was in much better shape now.Caesor had gone out and was keeping watch outside the door with Tim.Chloe raised her hand and traced Xavier Grayson's features slowly. "Did I ever tell you that you have beautiful eyes? Thick, dark brows. Long, curled lashes. Deep and sharp eyes. If our baby is a boy, I hope his eyes look just like yours."When her voice fell, the room fell silent again, save for the steady, rhythmic beeping of the machines.Beep... beep... beep...Her fingertip moved to his nose, then finally came to rest on his pale, thin lips. She brushed her thumb across them gently, then leaned in and pressed her lips to his.When she pulled away, the scene from movies and novels didn't happen. Xavier's eyes stayed closed. He didn't move at all.In the second half of the night, Tim came in several times. He never said much, but every time he left, his expression see
