《Betrayed By The Billionaire》全部章節：第 511 章 - 第 520 章

"Sure." Seth Rollins agreed readily."What kind of car do you want?" Chloe Bishop asked.While waiting for his answer, she carefully tucked the contract away, treating it with the utmost care. This would be her anchor at Bishop Group—she had to protect it well.The project was massive. If she pulled this off, her personal commission alone would be substantial, and the company's profits would be immeasurable. A car and a meal were small change in comparison.Seth Rollins smiled. "I'll tell you once I've thought about it. Try the foie gras here—it's got a unique flavor."Throughout the meal, Seth Rollins asked about her kidnapping but made no mention of Liam Martin's injury, as if he knew nothing about it.Chloe Bishop felt completely at ease with Seth Rollins. They chatted about childhood memories, and time flew by.Knock, knock.A knock came at the private room door, and a server pushed it open.Xavier Grayson glanced back, picked up a napkin to wipe his mouth, and stood up. To Caesor

Xavier Grayson had been burning with anger. She was the one who'd broken the rules, who'd crossed his boundaries. He'd warned her time and again—don't go behind my back. But had she listened? She'd believed Hank Grayson's words and secretly investigated him. She'd kept Rick's situation from him and taken it upon herself to give Mia that kind of advice, dragging Grandmother into the mess as well. Had she ever considered what would happen if Rick turned out not to be his father's daughter? How disappointed Grandmother would be? And how could Grandmother ever mend the rift between her and Xavier Grayson that this incident had caused? Didn't she deserve to be punished? But hearing Chloe Bishop admit her mistake, apologize, and say she'd overstepped and regretted meddling in Rick's affairs—it only made Xavier Grayson feel more agitated. What did she mean by "meddling"? "I already apologized for this when you threw me out. I admitted I was wrong. But clearly, you still can't forgive me

"Son, you're finally back."Xavier Grayson returned very late. Lady Grayson and the others had already gone to bed. Only Lana Rose was waiting for him, her graceful, refined face softening with a gentle smile. "I made some soup—it's still warm. Let me get you a bowl?"Xavier Grayson ignored her attempt to please him, striding straight inside. His voice was ice-cold, completely devoid of emotion. "Didn't I tell you to leave? Why are you still here?"Lana Rose hid the dimness in her eyes, following behind him with a practiced smile. "Don't chase me away. I'll stay a few more days and leave on my own."She followed him upstairs, but he stopped her in front of the master bedroom door, looking down at her from his superior height.Lana Rose lifted her lips. "I want to talk to you."Xavier Grayson turned around, his face expressionless. "I have nothing to say to you. I'm tired and I need to rest. If you don't want the servants to escort you out, I suggest you get out of my sight right now."

Lana Rose spoke with deep sincerity. "Chloe, Xavier does care for you—otherwise, he wouldn't have married you in the first place. But he has a wound in his heart. He doesn't know how to love, and he doesn't trust easily."Chloe Bishop thought of Xavier Grayson's cold, distant face. "Maybe so. But I'm only capable of so much. I'm not the one who can pull him out of that abyss. I'm sorry to have disappointed you and Grandmother."With that, she hung up.The truth was, Xavier Grayson needed a woman who only had eyes for him.Just like she'd once been with Liam Martin—heart and soul, nothing but him in her world, putting him above everything else. Brave, passionate, and willing to give it all. Only a woman like that could earn his trust.But she would never become that person again.Now, she knew better how to love herself and what she truly needed. Even if she'd realized she'd developed feelings for Xavier Grayson, she could still keep her head clear—not letting love cloud her judgment or

Just like three months ago, by the time Chloe Bishop arrived, Nanny was already waiting outside the Civil Affairs Bureau. He stood beneath the same old tree, a brand-new Rolls-Royce parked beside him.The car was flashy and impossible to miss, drawing glances from passersby."Miss Bishop."Nanny gave a slight bow when he saw her, hesitating as if he wanted to say more.Chloe Bishop glanced at the Rolls-Royce, certain that Xavier Grayson was inside, before asking, "Have you been waiting long?""We just arrived as well, Miss Bishop—"Nanny cut himself off as the sound of a car door opening came from behind him. He stepped back with another bow.Xavier Grayson emerged before Chloe Bishop's eyes—just like three months ago, stepping out of the car wrapped in an icy aura, his presence so commanding it made one's heart tremble.The scene was almost identical to the day they had gotten their marriage license.That day, the weather had been just as clear, the sky just as blue. And he had been l
