Billionaire's Abused Wife 300. The clothing emergency
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

A sleek, white luxury car glided to a halt in front of the wealthy restaurant. Noah emerged a vision in a white suit and a black shirt, his silver wristwatch catching the light. With an air of elegance and sharp eyes, he bled charisma and handsomeness. With two buttons on his shirt casually undone, he defined power.Noah gallantly opened the car door for Jemma, who stepped out in a stunning black-coloured cowl neck slit satin midi dress. Radiant as always, she paired the outfit with lace-up heels and a hint of makeup – nude lipstick and black mascara. Her silky hair was elegantly bundled into a bun, showcasing her shoulders and a glimpse of her white back. Sporting a captivating smile, she linked arms with Noah, and together, they entered the restaurant, the perfection of glamour and style.After a day of feeling down and adrift, a genuine smile finally graced Jemma's face when Noah came into view.

"What's going on? Can't sleep?" he asked, his voice all smooth and sexy. Jemma nervously swallowed and said, "Why don't you spend some time with me?"Noah reassured her, "I'm right here. Spill it. I'm all ears."His affectionate vibe and soft eyes made it tough for Jemma to keep her feelings in check."We used to gab about everything in the good old days! Non-stop chats and phone calls. I couldn't relax until I spilled my whole day to you. Sometimes, we'd knock out mid-chat. My head on your shoulder... Now, you're this big shot, super-rich businessman."Noah gave her cheek a little stroke with his finger and, in his smooth voice, said, "You can still do that. Call me up, chat away."Jemma lifted her fingers, playing with his collar."When you're not around, I feel like I've got a ton to tell you. But then you come, and it's like you already know it all," she confessed."What do I know?" he asked."You know how to mend my heart. You know my longings and what I shouldn't do. You know ho

In the hotel suite, Jemma and Noah sat at the breakfast table, surrounded by an air of formality. Jemma couldn't help but steal glances at Noah, looking sharp in his suit. Impatient and curious, she finally broke the silence, "Are you heading to work?"Noah calmly wiped his mouth, set the spoon down, and replied with an icy tone, "It's a business trip."Hesitant, Jemma asked, "When... when will you be back?"His response was curt, "I don't know."With that, he coldly left the suite, leaving Jemma alone at the table, her heart heavy with sadness.Feeling no tilt to go anywhere, Jemma opted to stay in the suite, passing her time immersed in books and news updates. Every channel seemed to broadcast the same news about Noah's arrival in the city, and she couldn't help but revel in his fame.As the clock struck nine in the evening, he hadn't returned yet.While engrossed in the news, a live broadcast caught her attention. It revealed Noah leaving a hotel with a striking woman after dinner.

"You're pissed at me."Jemma bit her lip, staying tight-lipped."I told you, this is a freakin' work trip. No funny business," he muttered in his low, serious tone."I thought I could at least help you and..." spend some time together, she mumbled, unable to get the whole sentence out.He wiped away the tears from her eyes, saying, "Didn't I tell you to chill and have a good time?""Without you?" She shot him a glare."What's your deal then? You want me to ditch work and go on a vacation with you?"Jemma got ticked off by his response and shoved him away. She stood up to the bolt, but he snagged her wrist to halt her."Let go of me," she snapped, still steaming."Let me show you something. It's gonna make up for everything," he said."I don't wanna see anything," she grumbled."But I want you to."He started dragging her towards the door, and she started protesting."Cut it out, Jimmy. I ain't up for this. I don't wanna see anything."“Shut up.”He shoved her into the car and hit the

"Happy?" he asked, pulling out a cigarette. Jemma stood shyly beside him, her gaze fixed on the dancing aurora."Thank you," she said. To thaw her anger that seemed meaningless now, he had taken her on a long and challenging drive to this mesmerizing place. Was she truly that special to him?With this single gesture of his, all her grievances dissipated. She witnessed the aurora and shared a lengthy drive with him, and her anger transformed into happiness. She looked down, a bashful smile playing on her lips."You wanted to see it, right? Feast your eyes, 'cause we're heading back to Vento City soon," he said, taking a deep drag on his cigarette."Is the job done here?" she asked, eyeing him."Don't sweat the details. Just focus on keeping that smile on your face," he replied.Jemma gulped, "Why though?""Because I like seeing you happy. And if there's ever a reason for those eyes to well up, I'll make damn sure it disappears," he said, flicking ash and taking another puff. Jemma coul

As the cigarette packet emptied, Noah drove them back, reaching the apartment in two hours. Jemma took off his blazer, observing him as he headed straight for the whiskey counter and poured himself a drink. Seeing his indifference, she voiced her concern, "Enough, Jimmy. You've smoked a lot, and now... drinking?""You go and sleep. We might leave tomorrow morning.""And what about you?""I'm fine.""That's not the answer to all my questions," she snapped, growing irritated. He looked at her."What's wrong with you? Why do I feel like you're just pretending to be nice with me?"Noah gulped down the alcohol and headed straight to the study room, leaving her with unanswered questions.Jemma couldn't tolerate his indifference and followed him into the study room.Noah was lighting up a cigarette."Jimmy, I'm asking something," she said."I said, sleep." He said while taking a deep drag, turning away. Unfazed, Jemma approached him, "And I said stop smoking and drinking.""It's none of your

"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.

"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,

The cool sweetness lifted her spirits, turning a mundane evening into a delight.As Jemma indulged in her favourite ice cream, she decided to tease Noah, ignoring his earlier warnings about venturing out alone.

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..."

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.
