Billionaire's Bride: Betrayal to Bliss End of Something
Chapter 116Michael and Melissa Apartment Melissa’s heart raced as she watched Michael, waiting for his response. The room seemed to grow colder; the sound from the television was barely audible at the moment amidst the tension between them. She had put everything on the line with her question, and now she needed the truth, no matter how painful it might be.Michael leaned back on the couch, rubbing his face with both hands. His mind was spinning as his heart conflicted. He wanted to be honest with Melissa, but even he wasn’t entirely sure of the answer. How could he explain the complicated feelings he still harbored for Kaitlyn while trying to build something real with Melissa?Finally, after what felt like an eternity, Michael spoke. “Melissa, I can’t lie to you,” he began, his eyes meeting hers with regret and frustration. “I’m trying to move on. I really am. But Kaitlyn... she was such a big part of my life. It’s hard to just... erase that.”Melissa felt her heart sink. Though sh
Billionaire's Bride: Betrayal to Bliss Feeling Unwell
Chapter 117Melissa sat across from Michael cold and with a rigid posture, her arms crossed tightly over her chest. She had waited long enough, and now it was time to lay her cards on the table. In a calm yet resolute manner, she uttered those words that would change everything between them.“I want a divorce, Michael.” Her wavering eyes were locked onto his, as she declared. “And I don’t expect you to fight this.” She waved a hand at him.Michael sat motionless as he blinked, trying to process what she had just said, slowly letting her words sink in. Divorce? They had their issues, sure, but he hadn’t expected this. Not now, though their relationship was heading in that direction, but he wasn’t expecting this so abruptly.Melissa continued; her voice was strangely calm, as if she had rehearsed the lines many times before. "I don’t want anything from you. No money, no property—nothing. I can take care of myself." She exhaled sharply, as if relieved to get it off her chest.He tried to
Billionaire's Bride: Betrayal to Bliss Friend or Foe
CHAPTER 1"Do you take Melissa to be your lovely wedded wife?" The priest inquired.I had a moment of my heart ceasing to beat. This was unbelievable. After all this time of loving him and being there for him in every situation, not now. It's impossible that Michael is getting married to someone else in my presence.I gazed at the stunning woman wearing a white dress who was standing next to him. Melissa, who I thought was my best friend. The person who assisted me in choosing the ring I gave to Michael when I proposed two years back.Tears stung my eyes while witnessing her bright smile directed at him."I do," Michael proclaimed confidently, looking at Melissa with a clear expression of pure love on his face.Those two small words stabbed my heart deeply.For eight years, we had been inseparable ever since we met in college.We had been preparing for this wedding for more than a year.Now, he was tying the knot with my disloyal best friend rather than me. How could they have treated
Billionaire's Bride: Betrayal to Bliss Falling Apart
CHAPTER 2"I love you." He said. "I will always be by your side and will never let you down." He said.Smack! Smack! Smack! I aggressively hit the steering wheel in frustration with my hand."Fuck you Michael!" I screamed on top of my lungs.How could I have been so foolish to not realize his deception, to have truly trusted him. I was so stupid. I gritted my teeth as I gripped the steering wheel, raking my other hand through my hair.I angrily wiped away the tears that were beginning to form at the edges of my eyes. "Stop shedding tears for that deceitful snake Kate. After so many fucking years! I am done allowing him to manipulate me that way!!"I inhaled. "You can do this, Kaitlyn'," I encouraged myself. "It's time to move forward and begin living for yourself."I breathed deeply to calm myself and began driving towards the restaurant where I would meet my friend Emma for dinner.She had been a significant source of support during the last couple of months, allowing me to release a
Billionaire's Bride: Betrayal to Bliss Sudden Coincidence
CHAPTER 3"I don't want to go with it, Sarah," I sulked, acting like a child as she pulled me towards the mirror to tidy my messy hair.You should take a moment to examine yourself. "You look extremely disheveled," she remarked with accuracy.My appearance suggested I had been sleep deprived for several days, featuring under-eye bags and disheveled hair resembling a bird's nest.Observing my worn-out appearance only emphasized the complete exhaustion, both physically and emotionally, caused by Michael's betrayal.After a short while, Sarah had performed her magic.She skillfully enhanced my complexion with makeup and styled my hair into gentle, flattering waves. As the final step, she gave me a sleek black dress to put on. She had brought me over to my apartment, not allowing me return back alone and wallow in self pity."There, much better," Sarah said with a pleased grin while I marveled at my reflection in the mirror.The tight-fitting dress highlighted my curves perfectly, resulti
Billionaire's Bride: Betrayal to Bliss Beautiful Seductress
CHAPTER 4I quietly giggled as I politely left Sarah to go to the bathroom. The stunning man had been staring at me all night, but I refused to look at him again to satisfy his curiosity.I swayed through the crowd, adding a little more sway to my hips. Allow him to observe as much as he desired, I am capable of playing this game as well. Tonight, I regained control and felt empowered.Upon arriving at the bathroom, I pushed the door open and suddenly halted. The place was a total mess, with puddles of liquid - hopefully just beverages that were accidentally spilled - scattered throughout the tacky floor. Discarded makeup wipes and balled up toilet paper were scattered all over the place.The blonde at the counter, wearing heavy makeup, was the most worried as she slumped over and snored lightly with streaks of mascara on her cheeks."Uh, pardon me?" I dared to shake her shoulder slightly. Excuse me, ma'am? You are not allowed to sleep in this place."She woke suddenly with a loud sno
Billionaire's Bride: Betrayal to Bliss The Invitation
CHAPTER 5I couldn't shake off the feeling of that man from yesterday's party as I stared at the paper in my hands. I stood, looking at myself in the mirror. He had slipped it into my hand before leaving.When I looked at it was an address, a place I could meet him. On the paper it was written that he would send someone to pick me up.I knew I couldn't trust strangers, but there was something about this man that I couldn't shrug off. An aura of mystery and intrigue that had me feeling unsettled yet undeniably drawn in.Sarah walked up from behind me, spotting the paper in my hands. "You still thinking about him?" She asked with a sly smirk.I chuckled to myself, both amused and exasperated by her relentless prodding about my apparent "admirer" from last night. "Don't get your hopes up too high.""Why wouldn't I?" She shot back impishly. "He seems pretty interested in you. And he looked pretty rich too." She punctuated her point by taking a dramatic sip of coffee.Sarah, though perpetu
Billionaire's Bride: Betrayal to Bliss Accepting the Invitation
CHAPTER 6"Over there," Sarah mentioned, moving back with a content nod. "You are prepared to go and pursue your billionaire playboy."I let out a nervous laugh, running my hands gently over the smooth cotton shirt she had assisted in choosing. "Take it easy. I have no idea what this even is, to be honest."Sarah gave me a sharp glance. "Young woman, I beg of you. That guy was ogling you from the other side of the club. He obviously desires to devour you next.""Perhaps he is simply a harmless eccentric who delights in gathering intriguing individuals."Before Sarah had a chance to reply, a loud car horn honked outside. Both of us looked at the windows and I was amazed to see the shiny luxury car parked outside my humble apartment building.Sarah dryly remarked that she believes that is your mode of transportation. "Shall we?"“I still wonder how he knows where I live.”She linked her arm with mine and practically pulled me out before I could hesitate and change my mind, “Leave that f

Chapter 115“There’s something I’ve been meaning to say for a while now,” Melissa began, her voice shaking slightly. “I know things between us haven’t been... easy.”Michael set down his wine glass, turning to face her, fully curious at what was bothering her so much that she was struggling to say. “What do you mean?” he asked. He had been through enough drama lately, and the last thing he needed was more, at least not today.Melissa looked away, her fingers tapping nervously on her knees. She wasn’t sure how to begin or if she should even say it, but she knew she had to. “I think,” she started, “we’ve been avoiding the real issues between us. The truth is... ever since Kaitlyn...” She hesitated as she saw the tension and anger in Michael’s eyes at the mention of her name.Michael interrupted her with a sharp tone. “This again? Melissa, for God’s sake, how many times are you going to bring up Kaitlyn? She’s not the problem. We are.”Melissa bristled at his words, feeling her frustrati
Billionaire's Bride: Betrayal to Bliss New Year Eve
Chapter 114Estefan Penthouse Kaitlyn stirred awake as the early morning light flowed through the curtains, giving a warm glow over Estefan's bedroom. Her mind was still foggy, but as she blinked herself awake, the events of the previous night came flooding back. She had once again found herself in Estefan’s arms and in his bed, after their return from the glamorous launching gala. The intensity of their connection, the way their lips found each other, how their bodies intertwined, and the emotions that followed were still fresh in her mind. She buried her face deeper into the blanket, feeling embarrassed yet excited as the memories replayed in her mind.After lying still for a while, Kaitlyn decided she needed to get up. Slowly, she tried to inch her way out of the bed, careful not to disturb Estefan. But just as she was about to slip out, she felt his arm tighten around her waist, pulling her closer. She frozen, thinking he might wake up, but when his grip loosened slightly, she re
Billionaire's Bride: Betrayal to Bliss Mi Reina
Chapter 113The crowd’s whispers filled the grand hall as Estefan and Kaitlyn made their way toward the stage. Their striking entrance had left an indelible mark on the room. All eyes were on the power couple as they walked magnetically full of radiant and effortless grace that demanded attention.Kaitlyn tried to steady her nerves, aware of the scrutinizing gaze of the audience. Though she was used to being the center of attention, the significance of tonight, coupled with Estefan’s bold move to escort her publicly, had made her emotions swell. He hadn’t told her he was going to walk her.She couldn’t deny the comfort she felt as she felt his warm hand resting lightly on her back, guiding her forward. She had been avoiding him lately since the passionate night they shared together and couldn’t believe he would be there for her tonight.Estefan leaned in as they approached the stage and said in a low and intimate whisper. “You’re doing great, Mi Reina. This is your night, and I wouldn
Billionaire's Bride: Betrayal to Bliss Unveiling of the Modern Empress
Chapter 112The next morning at the hospital, Melissa was lying in bed; she hadn’t sustained any physical injuries from the accident, but the shock of the impact was still taking a toll on her. Both Michael and Melissa shared a private room in the hospital because of Melissa's status as a high-class model; the tension between her and Michael was still there. Vanessa sat beside her, too focused on slicing the fruit she had brought with her earlier; she was trying to distract herself from an uncomfortable situation in the room.Michael, meanwhile, was seated on his bed; his arm was bandaged and there were a few visible bruises on the side of his head. His friends had come to check on him immediately; they had received the news. They chatted together, but Michael’s mind was elsewhere. His eyes darting between Melissa and the door, nervous about the potential fallout of last night’s crash, and more so, the aftermath of his encounter with Kaitlyn from the night before was still much there.
Billionaire's Bride: Betrayal to Bliss It's a Beautiful Feeling
Chapter 111As Melissa stood outside the hotel, grumbling under her breath, she tapped her foot impatiently, glaring at the valet. Her frustration was bubbling over, and she let it all out on Michael as soon as they got in the car."I can’t believe you’re still chasing after Kaitlyn like some love-struck puppy, even after she’s married," she spat in anger. "You’re pathetic, Michael. She doesn’t want you, and she never will. You’re nothing but a puppet, her puppet!"Michael kept his eyes on the road, one hand gripping the steering wheel, the other propped on the window, supporting his head. His mind was far from Melissa’s insults. He was deep in thought, replaying the evening’s events in his head. The last time he had a confrontation with Kaitlyn, Estefan had scheduled an emergency inspection at the subsidiary division he was managing and didn’t later show up as he had scheduled, which he believes was a clear message of warning. Michael had brushed it off then, but tonight... tonight,
Billionaire's Bride: Betrayal to Bliss Events at the Party
Chapter 110Before anyone could dwell too much on the unease, the lights dimmed as the moderator returned to the stage, signaling the next phase of the evening. “Ladies and gentlemen, it’s time for the grand toast to the future of Salvatore Group. Please raise your glasses as we celebrate the legacy and the bright future ahead.”Glasses clinked all around, and Estefan’s arm tightened around Kaitlyn’s waist as they stood together, lifting their glasses in unison with the room. The atmosphere shifted to one of celebration, and Kaitlyn allowed herself to relax a little, the earlier confrontation fading as she focused on the positive energy around them.Adrian was occasionally stealing glances at Estefan and Kaitlyn, his mind still processing everything. He hadn’t missed the brief tension that had unfolded earlier when they returned from wherever they had been. His sharp eyes moved toward Melissa, who was seated with Michael now, her face set in a smug, satisfied expression. She had clear
Billionaire's Bride: Betrayal to Bliss Putting Melissa in Her Place
Chapter 109Kaitlyn squared her shoulders, refusing to be intimidated by Melissa’s malicious smirk. “Steal your husband?” she said slowly; her voice was firm and clear. “Let me make one thing very clear, Melissa; I don’t want Michael. I never did, and I never will. So, don’t make this about me trying to take something that isn’t even worth having.”A huge blow was given to Melissa's face as her smirk faded at Kaitlyn’s words. Melissa narrowed her eyes dangerously as she opened her mouth to retort, but Kaitlyn wasn’t finished.“You might want to ask yourself why your husband has been lurking around me instead of standing by your side tonight,” Kaitlyn added coldly. “I didn’t seek him out. He’s the one who can’t seem to let go of the past.”Michael flinched, caught in the crossfire, but he still didn’t speak. His guilt was written all over his face, and Melissa saw it. She knew Kaitlyn would never approach Michael first, but she couldn’t admit that to Kaitlyn.“Oh, please,” Melissa snee
