Todos los capítulos de The Billionaire’s Wife Returns From The Dead : Capítulo 71 - Capítulo 80

Adrian’s POVI kept looking down at my wristwatch, biting down on my lips anxiously. I hope this isn’t Briar’s way of getting back at me. I have texted her repeatedly to apologize. When I went to hers during the rest of the week to pick up Knox, she shut me out. I went too far that day in the office by allowing my emotions to get the best of me. I was just pissed and hated that she was standing up for another man in my face. I had offered to pick Knox up for mum’s birthday dinner and she insisted on bringing him when he returns from his outing with Liam. She wouldn’t even let me wait for him or chauffeur them down here. Makes me worried that it might be her way of refusing to let Knox come over. “Why do you look so troubled?” Mum asked behind me, startling me a bit. “Briar and Knox aren’t here yet. I am sorry you can’t have your birthday celebration with your friends around.” I mumbled. “Oh, please. I can always celebrate with the people around me. But getting to sit with you and

Adrian’s POV“Something tells me you have turned my house into a pigsty and a whore house.” I sniffed, readjusting the phone to my ear as I threw my legs out. Eric grumbled on the other end. “You don’t need to worry about that. I can’t risk getting sent out of the house. So I have to make it worthy of Your Majesty’s taste.” “When are you leaving my house?” “Why? Did dinner go south? You were so excited to abandon the house a few hours ago.” He snickered. I sighed, running my hands through my hair. “I think we are not fated to reconcile.”“What do you mean?” “Isadora showed up out of nowhere. Made the whole room tense. Afterwards, I tried to talk to Briar and she lashed out. I felt every word that left her lips. I feel so shabby right now.”“You should, seeing how you never try to keep Isadora on a leash and you let her ruin your moments.” “She is not a dog.” “She is starting to act like one.” “Shut up, Eric.” I groaned, pulling at my face. “Then hang up.” Bastard!“Really? Y

Briar’s POV“This again?” I groaned at the bouquet on my table. “Your secret admirer is not giving up anytime soon.” Rissa giggled, reaching for the note. As always she read it out loud. “I thought to put a hold on this, but then I realized, you do not know just yet the length to which I am willing to go.” She let out a squeal, jumping on one foot to the other. “My goodness! He is so poetic.” “That is so cringe.” I mused, shaking my head. Adrian is getting on my nerves with this. “Who do you think it might be?” “Who else would it be? I bet it’s Adrian.” Rissa tilted her head, “he doesn’t seem like the person who would do this. He looks more direct.” “Believe me, with that note. He is definitely the one.” I insisted. “Is this an office or a flower shop?” Liam questioned behind us. “Whose is that?” “Briar’s admirer,” Rissa replied. He exhaled, holding my gaze. “I will advise you to tell whoever it is not to turn the office into a showcase. People can’t be distracted around here

Adrian’s POV“What should I order?” Eric asked, going through his phone while I drove. “You do you.” I sniffed, focusing on the road. He chortled, “You are such a baby. Why are you all pouty when you were warned?” I huffed, “Just because I left doesn’t make accepting it any easier for me.” “I do know that. I must admit, though, Adrian, your son is beautiful and cheerful. I never would have thought something so pleasant could come from you, I guess we could thank his mother for that.” “You have a death wish, don't you?” Eric laughed. “Always so quick to violence.” We stayed quiet for a while before he asked. “Do you think you still have a chance to win back Briar?” “I am hoping to do everything I can.”“What about the other guy?” “Not quite certain about what is between them.” “Why won’t you just tell her the truth? Aren’t you tired of being misjudged?” I bit down on my lip, gripping the steering wheel. “She has had to experience too much pain over the years. There is no amou

Adrian’s POV“Hundreds of you! Fucking hundred! And yet you let such madness happen right under your nose?” I barked at the head of security. “I am sorry sir. The basement usually doesn’t have people around there.” He mumbled with his head bowed. I gnashed my teeth, holding myself back from punching the living daylight out of him. “Are you stupid? Are you saying the cleaners and everyone else who visits the basement are not worthy enough of security? Why the hell am I paying such an amount of money for the company’s protection, if you aren’t monitoring the CCTV footage of every corner of the damn building? Thank your stars that I got there on time. If not I would have had you skinned alive. Get the fuck out of my face.” I turned away from him, standing in front of the room where Briar was being attended to. I don’t even want to imagine what could have happened if I didn’t get restless. About thirty minutes ago, Briar and I were supposed to have a meeting. Which is very important an
