Billionaire's Abused Wife 294. You deserve better than me
"Are you crazy? You just got out of the hospital today. You can't even walk right. Your liver might be messed up. Can't you stop all this for a few days?" She scolded him. Noah clenched his teeth and grabbed her shoulders, pissed off. "Cut it out. Quit doing this. I didn't ask for your help." "But you need it," she said quietly. Noah dropped his arms and turned away in frustration. "I can handle myself." "I just saw you. You'll end up killing yourself." "Don't you want me to kick the bucket after causing you so much trouble?" He glared at her, and Jemma froze. "I messed up your life, forced you, beat you, and kept you stuck here. You probably wish I'd suffer the worst death." "I'm not like you, intentionally hurting people." "But you did try hard to get me offed." "I didn't do anything." "Did you forget that party at your place? Didn't you hire a thug to attack me?" Jemma frowned. "I did. Fine, I admit it. I was so mad at you for putting Jay in a dangerous situation." "Jay,

In a corner of the world... An old man with a cane, rocking black shoes, making his way to his suite. Three men decked out in black were trailing him, looking like his bodyguards. The old man had worry lines on his forehead like he was dodging someone. Once he punched in his finger password, the door swung open. "You guys scram. Let me relax, and secure this floor. Nobody gets in," he mumbled, sounding all mixed up. He strolled into the suite, and the three men left. He flicked on the lights, ditched his warm coat, and headed straight for the phone. He punched in a number and slapped the receiver to his ear. "Hey... Neel? You there? Listen up. I think Yohan tracked me down. Saw his car tailing mine. Yeah, even in this city. He's close. No, I can't trust him. He's dangerous. No, you stay there. Don't even think about leaving the island. It is the safest place we have. I'll wrap up my stuff and head back soon. Alright, alright. I got it." After chatting with his biological son, Neel

In a presidential suite...Yohan, fresh from a shower and suited up, looked unfazed, his face showing no signs of the underworld boss he had shot the night before.Just then, Noah walked into the suite, taking a deep sigh upon seeing Yohan well. Yohan arched an eyebrow at him."Why are you here?" he asked, adjusting his wristwatch."I was practically dying in the hospital, and you couldn't drop by to check on me," Noah grumbled."Why would I do that?" Yohan asked casually, slipping his wallet into his suit.Noah stepped forward. "Are you mad at me?"Yohan stuffed his hands into his pockets, giving him a stern look."You had the audacity to track me!""I was worried about you. Everyone is. Mom's a wreck since you left. She's not eating, not talking. Why are you doing this?"Yohan glared, "This is between me and her. You don't need to get involved. Go back."Hearing the warning, Noah backed off. They were both cut from the same cloth and knew how to handle each other's tempers."If you

As Jemma exited the building, there was no sign of Noah. A glance at her watch revealed she was ten minutes late; panic set in. Had he left, assuming she'd chosen Jay? The thought terrified her. Frantically calling Noah, she was met with the ominous silence of a switched-off phone.Calling a taxi, she raced to their apartment.Darkness greeted her, a frozen tableau of their life.

"What are you doing with the keys?""He dropped them in the parking. I was about to go upstairs to give him the keys. It's good you appeared."The security guard had the keys meant Noah's car was still

The new morning brought a sense of relaxation, bathed in the warm glow of the sun. Unlike usual, it was Noah who awoke early this time. As he opened his eyes, Jemma's face greeted him, an unusual sight. Her fingers lingered in his hair, and her eyes were peacefully closed. A warmth filled his heart; she had slept while soothingly caressing his hair the previous night.Gently, Noah sat up, carefully lifting Jemma in his arms. He walked towards the bedroom and tenderly placed her on the bed. Sitting at the edge, he couldn't help but gaze at her pretty face, a serene expression captured in the morning light. Noah found himself appreciating the simple beauty of the moment. He was so close to her that their breaths mingled, which stirred Jemma awake. Her eyes opened lazily, and she found Noah gazing at her with a deep intensity. The room seemed to hold its breath; a quiet moment suspended in time as their eyes met.He placed his warm hand on her cheek and asked in a low voice, "Did you sle

Jemma and Noah returned to their apartment late at night after a delightful dinner at October Villa. Jemma stood near the table, leaning back against it, while Noah began to take off his blazer."Did you enjoy?" Noah asked."Yeah... thank you for taking me there. I liked it so much," Jemma replied, her eyes sparkling with gratitude and a pretty smile captivating Noah.Approaching her, Noah said, "If you enjoyed it that much, then I'll try to bring you there more often."Jemma bit her lips, a hint of hesitation in her expression. "Jimmy...""What do you want to say?" he asked.Jemma took a velvet box from her purse and extended it to him.Noah looked at the box in surprise. "What is this?""It's a diamond necklace. Mom gave it to me.""If you don't like it, you can throw it. She'll bring you another one," Noah said casually."No... I mean... I like it, but..." Jemma began, trying to find the right words."But?" Noah prompted."It's so precious. How can I take this?"He nonchalantly res

Jemma cautiously stepped into his cabin, finding Noah deep in his work, surrounded by files instead of the usual meetings and phone calls. He didn't look up but spoke in his low, calm voice, "It's good you came. I was just about to send you a message."Still surprised by his sixth sense, Jemma watched as he raised his head and greeted her with a warm smile, "I'm heading abroad for a few days."Jemma's senses went numb, "Abroad...""I've been avoiding business trips for a while, but it's unavoidable now. It might take more than a week, not entirely sure."She placed the file on the table, a bit anxious, "When...when are you leaving?""Tonight."Jemma's surprise turned into a chill, "Tonight? So soon."Noah nodded, "Didn't expect it, but I have to go."She asked, "Do you want me to pack your bag?""No, that's fine." He approached her, holding her shoulders, "You go home. The driver will drop you. I'll head straight from here. No time to swing by home.""What about dinner?""Will eat on

Jemma was standing right in front of the mirror, wearing his white shirt. The fabric clung to her long, sexy legs, reaching just past her hips. The shirt, so comfy and smooth, revealed that she hadn't worn anything underneath.Noticing Noah's frown, Jemma, realizing her unintentional exposure, hurriedly held the towel close to her chest and tried to pull the shirt down to cover her exposed thighs. She was visibly embarrassed, stammering, "Jimmy... I... I'm sorry, I had to wear your shirt..." Her voice trembled with embarrassment.Noah couldn't help but glance at Jemma from head to toe. As she noticed his gaze, her breaths quickened. When he stepped ahead with his firm gaze, Jemma trembled, holding the towel tightly. She lowered her gaze as she saw him taking off his blazer and approaching her. Her throat dried rapidly, and she swallowed nervously.Noah wrapped her in his blazer and buttoned it up. Taking the towel from her hands, he spoke in his low and deep voice, "I will arrange clo

"How... How is that possible? I remember, we chatted the morning I got attacked. You were the one telling me the baby was all healthy. What the hell happened?" "Maybe it's just my rotten luck, Jemma. But seeing you with Sunny, I can't help but be grateful you made it through and had a healthy baby." "Oh, Jia..." Jemma enveloped her in a tight hug, both women clinging to each other as tears flowed freely. Meanwhile, Noah reached the October Villa. As he approached, Yohan shot him a glare colder than a snowstorm. "Dad... Mom..." Noah greeted them, his eyes darting around to gauge the situation. Sunny was playing with Yohan. Noah swallowed hard, sensing trouble. "How can you be so careless, Jimmy? Why'd you let Jemma come here alone at this hour? You know the danger's not over yet," Sara scolded, her tone edged with worry. "Mom, I didn't want her to come, but she insisted..." "You're avoiding the situation, Jimmy. You can't change the past, but you shouldn't be dodging what's happ

"Jimmy, it's been days. I want to see her and the baby. What's the big deal?"He sighed, "I promise, we'll go later. I just need to sort some things out first."Jemma, growing more anxious, insisted, "But I've been waiting, Jimmy. I can't wait any longer. What's going on?"Noah, worried about her mental state, softened his tone, "Listen, babe. Trust me, I'll take you to see Jia, okay? I don't want to rush into things."Jemma, feeling a pang of doubt, couldn't hold back, "Are you hiding something from me? Why won't you just take me?""No, Jemma, it's not like that.""Jimmy..." her eyes turned tearful."Okay. I'll take you out to dinner tonight, at October Villa. Jia's staying there, and we can see her afterward. Deal?"Jemma hesitated for a moment, then agreed, "Okay, dinner it is. But you better not forget about it.Noah smiled, relieved that he had managed to divert her attention, "I won't. Now, let me get going, okay?"Jemma agreed, watching him leave for the office.

Noah trudged back from work, the day's burdens still hanging on his shoulders. Opening the bedroom door, he caught sight of Jemma singing a lullaby to Sunny in her sweet voice. Emotions surged within him, and he quietly closed the door, not wanting to disturb their tender moment.Sinking into the living room couch, Noah leaned back with a heavy sigh. Guilt and regret enveloped him as he grappled with the reality of their situation. Conflicting emotions swirled as he recognised the joy in Jemma's happiness but couldn't shake the haunting feeling that everything was amiss.Jemma placed Sunny in the cot and, on her way to the kitchen for water, found Noah sitting in the dimly lit living room, a cigarette in one hand and a glass of whisky in the other. She touched his shoulder, and he opened his eyes, extinguishing the cigarette and placing the glass on the table."Tired?" she asked.Noah sighed deeply, rubbing the gap between his eyes. "Is Sunny asleep?"Jemma nodded, her palm on his che

The next morning dawned, casting a feeble light across the hospital room. The oxygen mask, a constant companion in her struggle for breath, had been removed, leaving her vulnerable in the stark hospital room.As Jemma slowly opened her eyes, the sterile scent of the hospital greeted her senses. Her gaze fell on Noah, sitting at the edge of the bed, his face etched with a mixture of exhaustion and sorrow. Desperation flickered in her eyes, and as she tried to speak, her voice emerged as a raspy whisper, "Jimmy... where's our baby?"Noah's heart clenched at the question, the weight of the unspoken truth hanging heavily in the air. He hesitated, avoiding her gaze, and gently urged, "Jemma, just take it easy. You need to rest."But Jemma, fueled by a mother's instinct and the gnawing fear that something was amiss, persisted, "Jimmy, please, where's our baby? Why won't you tell me?"His throat tightened with the burden of the truth he wasn't ready to share. Trying to divert her attention,

Yohan looked straight into her eyes, "Your mother didn't make a mistake giving birth to you and your brother. Being a mother ain't a mistake. The real mistake is not being able to bring a child into the world. And you didn't make a mistake wanting to bring life into this world."Jia lowered her head, tears welling up."He's a good guy. I'm proud of you."Jia rested her head on his shoulder, and he tightened his grip on her hand, patting it with his other hand."Jimmy's mad at him, not at you or your child. They're buddies.

"Jimmy, just hear me out. It's true. It's Jacob, but...""I don't want to hurt you.

"You won't do anything to him, brother. Please..." Jia approached him in fear."I'll kill that coward, Jia," Noah gritted his teeth, eyes blazing with anger."He's not a coward, brother.""This is pure cowardice. Who the hell leaves you in such a condition?" he shouted angrily."No brother, don't do anything to him. Please... he was going to tell you...""When? After the baby's born? It's been seven fucking months, Jia!" he screamed, shaking her. Jemma approached Jia, holding her shoulders, and said to Noah, "Jimmy, don't scare her. We can talk calmly.""I'm warning you, Jemma. Ask her who he is or get her ready to see his dead body in twenty-four hours."Saying that, he stormed out of the apartment furiously, leaving everyone shocked and scared.

I'll talk to him."Jia rushed to Sara, stumbling into her legs, "Mom... please..
