Bound By The Billionaires Contract 81: Trust Is Tested
Avery’s POVIt had been the best two weeks of my life, and it was quite unbelievable as Jamal continued to show me so much care and affection, but then I could not forget the fact that it was about to get serious.Exhaling sharply I turned and met Jamal’s soft gaze resting on my face, “Jeez! Jamal, you startled me. Why are you staring at me like that?” I asked, trying to catch my breath. There have been many changes in my body and my emotions were all over the place.“I apologize for making you frightened, but you were so focused on your thoughts you failed to hear me call out to you. Are you okay now? Should I turn down the window if you seem out of breath?” he asked calmly.Nodding slightly, Jamal quickly pressed a button and the next minute the car was filled with fresh air. Taking in deep breaths I felt a lot better, I really can’t tell why, but I usually experience shortness of breath since I became ten weeks pregnant.Smiling at me, I replied politely, “It's not your fault my bo

Avery’s POVClutching my dress tightly I tried so hard to steady the rhythm of my heartbeat while Emma walked towards the couch with a warm smile on her face, How could I be betrayed in this manner? How could Jamal do this to me? So they have been together all this while, and he continually made advances towards me, Ohh Avery, How pitiful! I thought silently.Emma comfortably took her seat on the couch after hugging Jamal briefly, my heart was so broken I longed to rip them apart. Was this how Jamal felt every time he saw me with Liam? I know I'm supposed to be happy for my friends, but then envy took the better part of my heart presently.“Oh, Avery! How have you been? I apologize for not coming to check on you at the hospital lately. You will understand why when Jamal tells you everything you need to know.” she said calmly but then her words pierced my heart fast. How did I not put the puzzle pieces together? They must be getting married soon, Emma and Jamal walking down the aisle I

Avery’s POV Adjusting myself on the couch I tightened my grip on my purse, it felt weird knowing that everyone in this room right now was here to help me win against Liam Leon Galloway. The man I got married to and believed was supposed to protect me from the world, but Liam turned out to be the one who hurt me the most.Brushing off the thought I paid rapt attention to the lawyer sitting opposite me, “Good morning Miss Avery, it's a pleasure to finally meet you. Mr. Jamal contacted me a few weeks ago, but we had to reschedule when he related to me that you were sick, so how are you feeling now?” he inquired calmly, but there was an underlying tone of authority in his voice. “I'm better now, thanks for asking!” I replied politely. Clearing his throat he said, “So let's get down to the business for the day, My name is Barrister Micheal, and I am a divorce lawyer, Mr. Jamal already gave me a debrief about your case with your husband and your willingness to terminate your marriage.

Standing up from the couch I resolved to check on her but the door opened suddenly, then Maria walked into my room holding a small bag. “Sorry my lady I took so much time, I was trying to search for the bag since I kept it hidden in the food store.” My eyes widened food store, What was in the bag that Maria kept? I became curious as I went back to the couch, Maria carefully placed the bag on the table in front of me and took her seat. “My Lady I don’t know if you are prepared for this, but this bag contains everything you need to win against Sir Liam, go on check the content afterward I will explain how I have this in my possession?” she stated firmly I wondered if it was the same Maria who was always so calm.

Even in my car when I had a scene, she was everything a man would ever wish for.Thankfully, the last argument we had did a good reset to her brain since then she has not mentioned anything about my family background in our conversations. Suddenly, I felt safe knowing this as she stirred in my arms and snuggled closer against my chest, instantly I felt my hard-on under the covers.Damn! She was like an electrifying force by my side, I don't think I would ever get tired of her sexiness.

Avery’s POVI heard footsteps approaching while I moved cautiously on the chair, “Who do we have here? It's fucking Avery Livingstone!” her voice echoed across the warehouse.Instantly I felt rage course through my bloodstream, I knew this voice even in my sleep. Laura Jones!Someone moved closer, probably a bodyguard then removed my blindfold and the cloth on my mouth roughly before moving away. I blinked twice trying to get a hang of my environment, suddenly I felt so scared seeing the fierce-looking bodyguards standing close to me.Recoiling into my shell, I redirected my gaze to Laura who had an evil smirk on her face, “So the almighty Avery is finally in front of me. I warned you, but you just did not listen, always thinking you are better than me. Who's the boss now?” she taunted, moving closer to me.I stared daggers at her but was taken aback when I saw Khloe walking behind her holding a pistol.

I can see that Jamal took good care of the both of you, thankfully the ultrasound shows no sign of any complication.” Dr. Leonard said, passing Jamal a napkin.He wiped off the gel carefully while smiling warmly, “He looks so cute Ave.” Grinning, she replied, “My little champ will be here soon.”When he was done Jamal helped Avery up while she breathed heavily since it was just a few days away from her EDD. “Thank you, babe.” Aver

Avery’s POVPondering on the revelation I just got from Mrs. Galloway a notification popped up on my phone. I checked it and discovered it was a threat from an unknown number,“Watch your back, Avery, I'm coming for you. This is not over yet, Liam is mine, and I refuse to share him with you. I don't mind wiping your footprint off the surface of this earth, be warned!!”Instantly I knew it was from Laura, taking a deep breath I wondered what she still wanted from me. I could not understand how I was standing in her way to be with Liam. It sounded so absurd, but then I decided to report it to Jamal so we could get a restraining order on her too.Jamal arrived hours later, “How is my baby doing?” he said, placing a soft kiss on my forehead. Exhaling sharply I replied,“ It has been a hell of a day babe, I'm happy you are here, can we go home now?”He stared at me in a funny way, “Alright, but you will have to give me every single detail about it.” he said before reaching for my brunch pac

Jamal was indeed a blessing to me, he went as far as employing bodyguards from a security company to guard the studio. Smiling he drove into the parking lot of the studio before turning the ignition off. “Make sure you sort everything with the galleries today, don’t forget your promise this is your last day coming to work. Try not to stress your beautiful self, I love you always, Ave.” he said before leaning in and claiming my lips softly. I moaned loudly in his mouth, Jamal quickly jerked away from me. “You are doing it again, please you can step out now before I do something drastic like claiming you in the backseat now!” he said running his finger through his hair. Blushing I replied, “Yes sire, have a lovely day too. Don’t get too worked up I know you will certainly smash your pitch. I love you.” Jamal stepped down from the car and held the door for me, assisting me with my bags. Thankf

Liam’s POVI sauntered into the sitting room feeling weary, my jaw ached so bad I could no longer feel my gum. At this moment, I realized I already lost Avery two years ago from the time I first raised my hand to smack her across her face and also when I cheated on her with Lisa, my secretary. Exhaling I slumped on the couch, reaching for the whiskey bottle I gulped the whole content. Staring around the sitting room, my life flashed before me, and I recalled how Avery and I were so happy before my ego spoiled everything we built. My head started spinning terribly. I felt like dying, my career was over even with every tactic I used in trying to get these directors to invest in my company it was useless. The funny thing was my grandfather resolved to donate half of his properties to Charity when he passed away, so there was no inheritance waiting for me since I failed to keep my marriage.

Author’s POVEarlier, Jamal and Avery were having a conversation in the sitting room, “Babe since your EDD is close I want you to stop going to the studio in the meantime, After postpartum you can start going again. Could you please do this one thing for me? I don't feel settled knowing that Liam is trying to get you back, and we don't know how violent he can become when you keep refusing him.” Jamal said while massaging Avery’s shoulders gently.“Yes…! This feels so good, right there, that’s the spot.” Avery replied, completely immersed in the massage. “Avery!! Are you even listening?”She paused and stared at him softly, “Jamal that’s the only way I get to leave the house, you are always going off to work and coming back home late. My mom has her therapy sessions during the week and Emma is still on her vacation, so what do I do? And I have two art pieces to deliver after this, I'm done.

Liam’s POVWhat would I do to make Avery come back to me? This question rang through my mind while I sat in my car after being chased out of the studio by Avery’s security.I sighed heavily, shortly after I saw Jamal running crazily out of his car into the studio. He came out hurriedly in less than five minutes holding Avery who was unconscious in his hands while running towards the car.He closed the car door and looked around the neighborhood searching for something. I quickly lowered my head to prevent him from seeing my features behind the steering wheel, Jamal drove out from the studio to the hospital.Immediately I panicked before turning on the ignition of my car, what could be the problem? I hoped silently in my heart that something terrible would happen to Avery and my baby.Hitting my forehead lightly I cursed myself, “Liam!

Chapter 113Avery’s POV Jamal held me close while we left the hospital, Dr. Leonardo told him something, but they discussed it in hushed tones while the nurse took my blood sample. He returned saying everything was normal, but after the discussion his countenance was disturbing. It was obvious something was going on, but Jamal was keeping it away from me, so I made up my mind to get the details from him before going to bed. We stopped at the pharmacy down the road and Jamal got down to get the supplements I needed and some drugs Dr. Leonard prescribed earlier at the hospital. I watched him walk into the pharmacy, he looked so tensed and angry but tried his best to calm himself down. Clutching my dress I tried to calm myself down, Liam cornering me at the studio was something I never thought he was going to do. Reaching for my purse, I took my phone out and dialed my mom’s number, “Hello, mommy,” I said, immediately she answered. “My lovely daughter Avery, How have you been? I t

Avery’s POVThe incident with Liam suddenly made me jittery, Jamal noticed how I easily forgot minimal details and how I kept dropping items on the ground in our bedroom. We moved to the guest room yesterday, Jamal helped to move all my stuff and got me a new massage chair. It felt so good last night when I tried it out, but it did not help with my fear of being cornered by Liam at the shopping mall. What became crazy was the fact that I knew Liam must have scouted for me through my social media page, and he knew where my studio was located. In the last two days, I came up with a sob story of how I was experiencing a series of cramps and just felt like resting all in a bid to outrun Liam, but now I just needed to get back to work. It is just a few weeks from my EDD and I still have two art pieces to complete. Sighing, I stepped on the accelerator while I drove down the road heading for the studio. Jamal left the house a couple of hours ago, it would be unfair to request that he dr
