All Chapters of Betrayed By The Billionaire: Chapter 391 - Chapter 400

Old Mrs. Grayson sighed softly, her voice low and intimate. "Your grandfather is old; he’s prone to confusion. If he calls Xavier a 'little animal,' does that not make himself the 'old animal'?"Chloe couldn't help but let out a small laugh at the matriarch’s bluntness."There," the Old lady said, patting her hand. "A smile is better. What grudge can’t be overcome with a little laughter? Stay here, I’ll get some ointment for you."Chloe watched her walk away, admiring her resilience. She had heard rumors about the Grayson family's fractured history. She understood why Old Master Grayson might resent Xavier—Xavier’s ruthlessness was legendary—but she wondered if there were deeper secrets hidden beneath the surface.When the Old lady returned, she carefully applied a cooling balm to Chloe’s swelling hand."Grandmother," Chloe asked softly, "tell me about Xavier. I want to understand him."The Old lady offered a wistful smile. "What is there to say? He’s been brilliant since he was a chi

"Is something wrong? Does this man have a history?" Liam Vance asked over the phone, his voice laced with concern.Chloe clenched her fists so hard her nails bit into her palms. Her heart felt as though an iron hand were squeezing the life out of it. "I can’t be sure yet, Liam. Please, I’m counting on you. This is everything to me."Liam didn't push for details. He knew Chloe well enough to recognize the edge of desperation in her voice. "Understood. I’ll start the investigation immediately."As soon as she hung up, Chloe dialed Sarah Vance and Aria Summer. Sarah had the digital prowess to dig into Xavier’s domestic travel logs, while Aria’s connections in the States could verify his movements in that small town near Sara Jay.By the time she finished the calls, Chloe felt physically ill. The accusations had come without warning—a heavy blow to the solar plexus that left her gasping. She wanted with every fiber of her being for Julian to be a liar. She wanted to believe in the man she

But a single question nagged at the back of her mind: If Xavier truly wanted to cannibalize the Bishop Group, why marry me? By making her his wife, he was technically merging his interests with hers. It felt counter-intuitive for a predator to marry his prey.Chloe turned on the faucet and splashed cold water over her face, forcing herself to focus. She couldn't crumble now. She had to wait for Aria Summer’s report from the States.When she stepped out of the bathroom, Xavier and Liam Jr. were already dressed and ready. Xavier’s sword-like brows knit together as he surveyed her. "Uncomfortable?"She had been in the bathroom for far too long, and her complexion was ghost-white."No," Chloe lied, avoiding his piercing gaze. "My foot just fell asleep."Xavier didn't press her. He scooped up Liam Jr. and gestured toward the nightstand with a voice that brooked no argument. "Drink that glass of milk on the table."With that, he carried the boy downstairs.Chloe stared at the white liquid,

For some reason, Chloe felt a sudden, inexplicable spark of pride at Xavier’s backhanded compliment. Before she could catch herself, the words tumbled out: "What about Blueberry?"The moment the question left her lips, she regretted it. Her brain hadn't authorized her mouth to speak, yet there it was—the ultimate comparison.What is wrong with me? she thought. Am I actually jealous? No, I’m just... overthinking. In her subconscious, Chloe refused to admit that the "Demon CEO" was starting to occupy more than just her physical space.Xavier’s eyes darkened, a deep, unreadable glint appearing in his gaze. Chloe tried to play it cool, forcing a breezy laugh. "I was just asking. She’s the nation's 'Little Darling' right now, after all."Xavier watched her clumsy performance for a beat. "You’re a little better than her," he said eventually.Chloe frowned. "Just a little?"Xavier raised an eyebrow. "What else do you want?"This little jealous vixen, he thought, a flicker of amusement crossi

Leo Grayson couldn't help but marvel as he watched the little boy's composure. "As expected of my brother’s son. The kid's got ice in his veins."Liam Jr., hearing this, gave a high-and-mighty roll of his eyes, as if to say: I was born brave; it has nothing to do with Xavier.Xavier Grayson didn't waste time. He signaled to one of the cars further back in the convoy. The owner, a business associate, immediately scrambled out, bowing and vacating the vehicle to hand it over to the CEO.Once they were inside the sanctuary of the new car, Chloe Bishop looked at Xavier, her voice raspy from crying. "You need to go to the hospital. The wound on your arm is deep—you’re losing too much blood."The crimson stain had already spread, turning half of his white sleeve into a grisly rag.Xavier remained unfazed, his voice flat. "Didn't you handle it for me last time? You're already an expert."Leo approached the car carrying Liam Jr., and Xavier immediately adjusted his jacket to hide the gore. He
