All Chapters of The Billionaire behind the Silver Mask : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

POV: MonaThe staff member was still standing by the door when he added, “They also know Miss Mona is here.”My brows pulled together. They knew I was here? How did they know that?I couldn't help wondering who was leaking all this information to the public. First our marriage appeared online, and now reporters somehow knew I had come to the Blackwood Company.Adonis, however, didn't seem bothered.“Tell everyone to ignore them and continue working.”I turned to him, almost in disbelief.That was his solution?The staff member hesitated.“Sir, they're causing some discomfort. They're distracting the clients, and some of the employees are finding it difficult to work with all the cameras and questions.”Adonis didn't even look concerned.“Then call the police and get them off my building.”The staff member's mouth opened slightly.“Sir...”Adonis slowly lifted his eyes to him.The look alone was enough.The staff straightened immediately. “Okay, sir.”He turned toward the door.“Wait.

POV: AdonisGregor's question stayed in the room. I didn't answer immediately. I didn't particularly have anyone in mind but I didn't say an outright 'No'yet. Firsy, My mind went through every person who knew about my marriage to Mona.There wasn't a long list. Mona knew. I knew. Arthur knew. Vivian knew. Gregor knew. Mona's father knew. My private doctor knew. My family lawyer knew, and so did Mona's family lawyer. Apart from them, I hadn't told anyone else. Apart from maybe the few associates that Mona was introduced to at the formal welcoming party done for Gregor.I didn't believe any of them had leaked the marriage.That didn't mean I trusted people blindly. I didn't. Trust had always been something I gave carefully, and I had learned a long time ago to know exactly who deserved it.Then there were the staff. Only a few people in the manor knew enough to have access to certain information. The butler had been with the Blackwood family for years. Mrs. Harper had served this family

POV: GregorThe drive home wasn't jolly at all. At least to me. My mood had been ruined.I barely noticed the streets passing outside the window. My phone was still in my pocket, I didn't bring it out again or recheck the message but I could feel the weight of my phone as if the message were still sitting on the screen.They had sent me a picture.Mona and me walking into the restaurant.And those words underneath it.[ Found You Again.And right where you needed to be. ]I stared ahead, my thoughts moving faster than the car. So they were back. It was definitely them. The same people who had tried to kill me abroad.My first thought was that they had followed me here. Then I shook my head. No. They didn't follow me. They waited for me.My stomach tightened.They had predicted me. They knew I would come home. Maybe they had never even intended to kill me in the first place. Maybe the attack abroad had only been meant to scare me. To make me feel watched and unsafe.And now that messag

POV: GregorI parked a few houses away from the address and killed the engine.I hadn't called ahead.There wasn't much point. I hadn't spoken to Marcus Silvego in years, and I wasn't even sure he still lived here.The last time we'd talked, I had been abroad. Marcus had been there for work, and somehow, after a situation that neither of us ever bothered explaining properly to anyone else, we'd ended up becoming friends.We kept in touch for a while after that.Then life happened. Calls became less frequent. Messages stopped. Eventually, we lost contact completely.But before that happened, Marcus had sent me pictures of his place in Ashcroft City and given me the address.If you ever come back, he'd told me, and you need something, find me here.I had remembered it. At least, I hoped I had. I got out of the car and looked at the building.It didn't look familiar. Of course it didn't. I'd never been there before so there was no reason for this place to mean anything to me.I checked t

POV: Mona“You said over the phone that you were able to locate one of the staff members.” I started.“Yes.”She picked up her phone.“I got someone to look into him.”She scrolled through the screen before tapping on a photograph.“Here.”She handed me the phone. I looked at the address first. Then the picture.I recognized the man. I'd seen him before, Maybe once or twice.I studied the picture again. I didn't stay around the company enough to know everyone. I only remember some of the staff, like Clara and Mr. Benson.“So he's still in the city?” I asked, looking up from the phone.Clara nodded. “Yes.”“Where?”She pointed at the address on the screen.“It's one of the quieter parts of the city.”I frowned slightly." So what about the others?”Clara shook her head. “Not yet. We haven't gotten their location.”I handed her phone back. “We could get to this one too and question him.”“Yes. That's what I was thinking.”“Does Mr. Benson know already?”“Yes. But he had something to att
