Falling For My Secret Billionaire のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 101 - チャプター 110

Bella POVThe memory of Leo's mother calling me trash still sat in my chest like a stone. I didn't want that woman anywhere near this baby I'm carrying. I didn't want my child to grow up knowing a father who had already chosen another woman. This made me change my mind quickly about staying here any longer, because if I stayed here any longer, I was certain Leo would come looking for me. Marcus sat beside my bed; he was just staring at me."I would like to stay with you tonight to make you fall asleep," he said. I no longer wanted to stay here. I just had to ask him when we were leaving. I just wanted to be sure it wasn't going to take longer. His voice was gentle, the kind of gentle that made me feel guilty for not wanting it, but I couldn't make myself feel anything close to what I used to feel when someone spoke to me like that."When do we leave?" I asked, because I couldn't contain the fact that I needed to get out of here as soon as possible to see if I could be healed."Tonight

Bella’s POVAs the sunlight streamed into my room, I slowly opened my eyes, only to immediately squint against the brightness. I was exhausted. My entire body begged me to close my eyes and go back to sleep, but I couldn’t.Marcus and I were going to meet his grandmother today.I had to get up.With a tired sigh, I sluggishly dragged myself out of bed. My body screamed for more sleep, but there was no time for that. I walked toward the mirror and stood in front of it.I smiled when I looked at my stomach.It had been four months now, and my pregnancy was no longer something I could easily hide.I sighed heavily.I was about to meet Marcus’s grandmother, and I was supposed to pretend to be his fiancée.But what was I going to tell her if she asked about the baby?Was I really supposed to tell her that the baby belonged to Marcus?I didn’t know what to say.I couldn’t lie and claim that someone else’s child belonged to Marcus.But I had to do everything I could to help him.Marcus had d

Bella's POVFinally, I was ready to meet Marcus's grandmother.I stood in front of the mirror, staring at my reflection, but for some reason, I barely recognized the woman staring back at me. I looked different. More elegant. More confident. More like someone who belonged in Marcus's world.Still, beneath all that confidence, I was nervous. I had no idea what his grandmother would be like, and I could only hope the meeting would go smoothly.The gown I had chosen fit me perfectly, making me look incredibly beautiful. Even my bump was barely noticeable beneath the elegant fabric. I ran my hands lightly over the gown and smiled at myself.For once, I actually liked what I saw.After several minutes of admiring my reflection, I heard a knock at my door."Bella, are you ready for us to go?"It was Marcus.I took a deep breath before walking toward the door. My heart was beating faster than it should have been.I opened it and found him standing in the doorway.For a moment, neither of us

Bella POVI thought meeting Marcus’s grandmother was going to be a total disaster.It was even worse than I thought.I did not sleep at all the night before, and now I knew why I had felt so uneasy.The old woman wanted us to get married.She said it at the dinner table, in front of everyone.She did not even ask me what I wanted.She just smiled and clapped her hands, like it was already done.I felt my face turn hot, and I could not say a single word.Marcus only looked at me, and I knew he was as shocked as I was.I could not imagine marrying any man who was not Leo. I just hoped Marcus knew how to stop the wedding his grandmother had planned.I was lost in thought. I did not even know when he came into the room.His soft touch on my shoulder brought me back.“Bella, what’s on your mind? I hope you are thinking about the marriage plan Granny talked about,” he said.“Why wouldn’t I think about it? You know I am carrying Leo’s child. I will not let someone else take responsibility fo

Bella’s PovAs I was scrolling through my phone, it struck my heart to see the new headline that Vanguard was expecting an heir from his wife. I was mad at myself for believing him when he said he would come back to me and his child. I didn’t know when the phone in my hand slipped and scattered on the floor. I felt my heart broken. “Why, Leo? Why do this to our unborn child?” I couldn’t believe he would leave me so soon. I thought he loved me too much to let go, but he did. I could feel a sharp pain shoot through my stomach. I guessed the baby had felt that hurt too. I clutched my stomach, hoping the baby would stop kicking, but the pain persisted. This time it was beyond anything I could endure. I didn’t know when I let out a scream. The more I screamed, the worse the pain became. It was too terrible for me to bear. I was twisting on the bed with both hands pressed to my stomach. It felt like the baby wanted to come out. I couldn’t wait for my baby to come out so I could behold her.
