All Chapters of Heiress Rebound, Back to My Billions: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

AURORAI woke up shaking.My brows were wet with sweat, and my fingers were trembling in my palm. I had a nightmare of Julian trying to rape me.When I shot up in bed, Alexander was sitting as well. He reached for my face and wiped the sweat trailing down my face. He pulled me into a comforting hug, his hand patting my back.I was trying to keep my breathing steady with him holding me, but when my eyes shut, the sinister smile and the eerie sound of his voice made my spine spike with fear.“I am here. Don’t be afraid.” Alexander’s voice broke through the chaos in my mind.I sniffed the tears brimming the edge of my eyes and pulled away from him. He cupped my face gently, running the pad of his thumb across my face.“I had a nightmare that… that… Julian… that…” I was stuttering, unable to form a single coherent sentence.“It’s not real. He didn’t touch you.” He shook his head. “And he can’t touch… Not again.” He had a firm look on his face.It looked like someone who was ready to be th

AURORAI had woken up at dawn and went to the studio. Alexander was still sleeping soundly, and I doubt if I would have been able to sleep another minute.The doctor had come and prescribed something that caused me to sleep almost instantly. After lying in bed for too long, I didn’t think I could stand another minute of just lying and doing nothing.“I can’t believe you went back to work.”My hand fell to my wide-open mouth, eyes widened and my chest heaving as I turned my head to the doorway.Alexander stood still with his hand in the pocket of his pajamas. He had sleep in his eyes, but his hair was perfectly neat, like he had done it this morning.“You scared me to death?” I asked, my voice hoarse as I tried to calm the raging in my chest.“I am sorry.” His eyes softened almost instantly as he pushed himself into the room. “But you shouldn’t be in here…” he trailed off.“Oh, God!” I groaned, holding back from rolling my eyes. “I can't stand even a minute more in bed.”“You are suppo

AURORAChloe had made sure we went all in.In the last three years, I had not even bought myself as little as a change of underwear. Julian had said it was wasteful to do so, even if it wasn’t with his money. And because I wanted even a little bit of his love, I agreed.I loved shopping so much. I couldn’t believe I had given it up for him.“See, shopping cures,” she chimed happily as she parked at the entrance to the apartment building.My eyes travelled up the building before I could stop it and settled on the top floor. The lights were off, and my heart broke just a bit. I didn’t expect that knowing Alexander was not home yet made me a bit sad.“I’ll be over tomorrow, and we can go together,” she said.I stopped looking at the building and focused on her. I nodded slowly. “But you have to find a way to get Alexander out of the house before I come. I don’t want him to unleash his anger on me.”My eyes went to the building again as I muttered to come up with a plan.When I stepped ou

AURORA“I thought you’d bring your husband today.”Her words were enough to cause Henry to stop in his tracks. His smile dropped as he looked at me.“Aurora? You are married?” he gasped.“Legally,” I replied with a smile. “Don’t worry, when we have the wedding, I will ensure you get an invite,” I continued.“Married? Aurora, is this one of your many tricks again?” Henry asked.“Tricks? What do you mean by…”“You know, the same things she did with that boyfriend of hers from three years ago,” Henry cut Chloe off.He had thought I left the family because he got with Melody. The truth was that I never wanted him, not even for a minute, and when he chose Melody instead, I couldn’t be more glad. He was still so full of himself till now.“Aurora.” He dragged my name out, and a shudder ran down my spine. “You don’t have to marry any Harry because you want to spite me.”“Spite you?” I raised a brow, crossing one hand over my stomach. “Why do I have to spite you?” I traced a hand between him a

AURORAMelody was the first to react. She took a step forward with her brows wiggling in confusion.“Who the hell are you?”Alexander didn’t stop looking at me. He raised his hand to my shoulder, brushed against my exposed shoulders, and smiled.“Are you good?” he whispered, finger brushing against my face as if he were trying to tease me.“What are you doing here?” I whispered, eyes darting because I didn’t want anyone to hear.“I am here to support my darling wife.” His smile stayed steady while my insides were crumbling with the possibility that everything was about to go wrong.Melody shrieked. “I asked, 'Who the hell are you?'"Alexander finally looked up at her and said in an oddly calm tone, “Aurora’s husband.”For a split second, the entire hall went silent. Because the man standing beside me had not said more than a few words, and yet everyone could tell he had some kind of aura no one could deny.Melody recovered faster than anyone else. She had a skeptical look on her face.
