Bound To The Billionaire Chapter 41
AVAThe tension in the room rose with an unprecedented speed as John Tyson glared at us. His lips were pulled to a sneer, his sharp gaze calculating as he stood some metres away from us like a barricade."What's going on father?" Clara asked as she descended down the flight of stairs. The moment our eyes locked,she let out a gasp, her eyes widening in surprise at my unwelcomed arrival."Ava?" She whispered, before turning to face her father, "What is she doing here dad? What's this adulterous woman doing back in our house. I thought we got rid of you" she spat.Normally, I'd be bold to speak out in my name but today, hearing her vile words and their scornful gazes made me want to recoil in my skin.I know I shouldn't have come here."Ask your cousin. Liam this woman doesn't belong here. We threw her out for a reason..." John Tyson pointed his forefinger at Liam, approaching him with predatorial steps as the words gritted out of his mouth.I became extremly frightened, clenching tightl

Uncle John sat in his dimly lit study, the heavy drapes pulled shut, blocking out the fading light of the day. The room was furnished with dark wood and leather, giving it a somber atmosphere that matched his mood. He looked up as Ava entered, her face pale but composed. She had been through a lot in the past few days, but she carried herself with a grace that John found both irritating and intriguing."Ava, my dear," he said, his voice smooth and deceptively warm. "Please, have a seat."Ava hesitated for a moment before taking the offered chair across from him. She was wary of Uncle John, aware of his dislike for her. Still, she knew better than to show her apprehension."Thank you, Uncle John," she replied politely.John leaned forward, his hands clasped together on the desk. "I want to extend my apologies for the way you were treated. It was a difficult situation for everyone involved, but I hope you understand that we had to act in the family's best interest."Ava nodded, her expr

The Rays family estate, a sprawling mansion stood imposingly against the backdrop of the late afternoon sky. In the opulent living room, Amelia and her mother, Isabella, were seated on a plush sofa, deep in conversation.Amelia’s eyes were bright with excitement as she spoke to her mother. "I’m telling you, Mother, this plan of ours is foolproof. Ava will be out of our lives for good, and Father will finally see her for the manipulative person she is."Isabella nodded, a faint smile on her lips. "Just be very careful honey. This is a dangerous game we are playing” Isabella advised.Yes she supported their endeavors but this was a risky plan nevertheless.“Why are you always worried about nothing mother? Just relax please” Amelia rolled her eyes, tired off her mother’s incessant worry.“Because you are not just toying with Ava but also with the reputation of her inlaws. The Tysons are a very powerful family" Isabella adviced.“I know mum. Ava has always acted like she was better than

AVA As I walked down the sidewalk, hand in hand with Liam, the late evening sun warmed my skin, a welcome contrast to the cool breeze that rustled the leaves above. I looked over at Liam, who was grinning from ear to ear, his eyes shining with pure, childlike excitement. It was rare to see him this happy, and it made my heart swell with affection. "I can't believe we're going for ice cream!" Liam exclaimed, his voice filled with glee. "It's been so long since we did this, Ava." I smiled, squeezing his hand gently. "I know, Liam. I've missed hanging out with you like this. It’s good to get away from everything for a bit, isn’t it?" He nodded enthusiastically, his eyes darting from one storefront to the next as we passed by. "I remember the last time we went, you got that weird flavor. What was it again? Something with chocolate and… pepper?" "Chocolate chili," I laughed. "It’s not that weird. You should try it this time. It might surprise you." He made a face, his nose crink

LIAMDays had passed since that horrible night, and I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was wrong. Ava had been avoiding me, and every time I tried to get close to her, she would find some excuse to leave the room. I couldn’t blame her, though. I had failed her when she needed me most. I couldn’t protect her, couldn’t do anything but stand there, frozen in fear like the helpless child I had to pretend to be.I know that acting like a child is supposed to keep me safe, but at what cost? How could I just stand there and watch while she was in danger? Every time I close my eyes, I see the fear in her eyes, hear the desperation in her voice as she begged me to do something. But I couldn’t. I couldn’t break the facade, and now I’m paying the price.It hurts more than I thought it would. It’s like a knife twisting in my gut every time she turns away from me. I miss her so much, and I hate that I’m the reason she’s pulling away. I’m supposed to be her husband, the one person she can

AVADinner was supposed to be a calm, quiet affair. I had cooked Liam's favorite—roast chicken with mashed potatoes—hoping it would bring some semblance of normalcy to our chaotic lives. The dining room was filled with the soft clinking of silverware and the murmur of conversation as we all sat around the table.Liam was seated beside me, his usual cheerful self, humming a little tune as he piled his plate high with food. Across from us, Uncle John and Davies chatted about some business matter, their voices low but intense. Clara was scrolling through her phone, occasionally glancing up to add a comment here or there.I was just about to ask Liam how his day went concerning his usual hospital checkups when I noticed him pause, fork halfway to his mouth. His hand began to tremble, and the fork slipped from his fingers, clattering onto the plate. I frowned, reaching out to touch his arm."Liam? Are you okay?" I asked, my voice tinged with concern.He didn’t respond. Instead, his entire

AVANO!They want to take my husband away from me and what's worse, to a fucking mental asylum! He isn't mad!Suddenly, my chest became tight and my breathing grew to be difficult. I gasped for air and tears streamed down endlessly on my cheeks.Liam isn't mad. Nobody can take him away!"You can't do that!" I snapped at the doctor.The entire family stared at me in blank amazement, like they had seen a phantom."I beg your pardon Mrs Tyson" the doctor said to me. I shook my head at him, affirming my words, "I said you can't do that. You can't take my husband away from me! He isn't mad" I boldly stated."Ava are you mad?" Davies sharply uttered, glaring at me.Clara let out a spiteful chuckle, "It seems so. We are doing what's best for Liam and you are trying to stop him from getting treated. What's your problem?"I turned my teary eyes to uncle John, pleading with him to not let them do this. "Uncle John please. Liam is your nephew. You can not stand for this. You care about him don'

Richard sat in his home office, staring at the financial reports on his desk, but his mind was elsewhere. His bills were pilling up and the company funds on shaky grounds. He had expected to get a huge amount of money off Ava's alleged cheating scandal but unfortunately for everyone involved, things didn't go as planned.He needed money and he needed money fast.The more he thought of the entire mess he had plunged himself into by getting his youngest daughter, Ava, married into the Tyson family, the more frustrated he became.His phone buzzed, jolting him out of his thoughts. The name on the screen made his heart sink—Cynthia- his mistress. He hesitated for a moment before picking up the call."Cynthia," he greeted, his voice tight with tension."Don’t ‘Cynthia’ me, Richard," she snapped. Her tone was sharp, accusatory. "I need money. Now."Richard let out a tired groan, trying so hard to keep his cool. Cynthia was another person he needed to take care of. Behind Isabella's back

Bound To The Billionaire Epilogue
Months later AVA The morning sun poured through the windows, bathing the room in a warm golden light. I stood in front of the mirror, my hands gently resting on my swollen belly, feeling the soft kicks of our baby. I could hardly believe this day had finally come—our wedding day. Again. I smiled to myself, watching my reflection as my fingers brushed over the lace of my gown. It was simple, elegant, and perfect for the small, intimate ceremony Liam and I had decided on. A fresh start. A new beginning for our family. There was a knock on the door, and Clara walked in, her face lighting up when she saw me. “Ava, you look beautiful,” she said, her voice soft but filled with sincerity. I turned to her, smiling. “Thank you, Clara. I’m glad you’re here.” She walked over, her expression a little more serious now. “I wouldn’t have missed this for the world. After everything… you and Liam deserve this happiness. You deserve a fresh start.” Her words meant more to me than she k

LIAM The silence in the hospital room was deafening. I sat beside Ava, watching the steady rise and fall of her chest, my fingers trembling as I reached out to gently brush a strand of hair away from her face. She looked so fragile, so pale. I had never felt so helpless in my life. The day had dragged on endlessly, every hour a brutal reminder of how close I had come to losing her. The doctors had said she was stable, but she hadn’t woken up. I had tried talking to her, whispering reassurances that everything was going to be okay, but there was no response. Just the maddening, continuous hum of the machines monitoring her vitals. “Ava… please, wake up,” I whispered, my voice hoarse from hours of silence. “I need you. We need you.” The door to the room opened, and a nurse stepped in quietly, checking the monitors before giving me a small nod. “She’s doing well, Mr. Liam. It’s just a matter of time now.” Time. It felt like an eternity had already passed. I watched the nurse leave,

LIAM I held Ava tightly in his arms, feeling her tremble against me. Her breathing was shallow, and her skin, pale and cold. Despite everything, she had held on. We both had. As I brushed the dirt-streaked hair from her face, I whispered, “You’re safe now, Ava. It’s over.” Her lips parted as if she was trying to speak, but no words came out. Her fingers clutched weakly at my shirt, trying to ground herself. “I’m here,” I whispered, holding her as close as I could without hurting her. “I’ve got you.” She blinked up at me, her gaze unfocused before she glanced around, her eyes landing on Clara and Davies, who stood near the door, watching us with somber expressions. She looked back up at me, her brows knitting together. Her hand moved to her stomach, resting there for a moment before her eyes widened. “Liam…” “What is it?” I asked, my heart skipping a beat. Her grip on me tightened, and fear began to seep into her gaze. “I—Liam, something’s wrong.” Before I could even pro

LIAM The cold concrete floor felt like it was digging into my bones, and every breath I took was shallow and labored. My body ached, the weight of exhaustion and hunger gnawing at me with every passing minute. Ava sat beside me, her face pale, streaked with dirt, and her once-vibrant eyes dull with fear and fatigue. We had been here for what felt like an eternity, tied up, helpless, malnourished, and broken. I glanced over at her, my heart wrenching as she tried to keep herself together. Every now and then, she would give me a small, strained smile—something to reassure me, as if to say we were going to get out of this. But even her resolve was weakening. I could see it in the way her hands trembled, her breath coming in short, panicked bursts. The room reeked of sweat and desperation, the oppressive silence hanging over us like a death sentence. Then the door creaked open, and the sound of footsteps echoed through the warehouse. My pulse quickened as I turned to see John and El

Clara had been restless, unable to sleep, and decided to head downstairs for a glass of water. As she descended the staircase, her footfalls silent against the thick carpet, she heard voices coming from John’s study. At first, she thought nothing of it. It was not unlikely for him to make calls this late. John often stayed up late for business calls, but as she reached the bottom of the stairs, something in the tone of his voice made her pause. She ducked into the shadows, peeking around the corner, just in time to hear him say something that froze the blood in her veins. “Once they are dead, the property and the company will be ours. There won’t be anyone left to challenge us. We’ve endured far too much and we’ve played those meaningless games with those two pests! Now it’s time to get rid of them forever” Clara’s breath hitched in her throat, her hand trembling as she clutched the banister. She didn’t dare move, didn’t dare breathe. John’s voice was calm, almost bored, as th

AVA I woke up with a pounding headache, my limbs heavy and sore. My eyes fluttered open, the room around me coming into hazy focus—a cold, dimly lit space with concrete walls and the faint hum of distant machinery. As I shifted, I realized I couldn’t move my arms. Panic set in, and my breath quickened. My wrists were bound tightly behind me. A groan escaped my lips as I tugged at the restraints, but they wouldn’t budge. It was then that I noticed Liam, slumped beside me, his head hanging low. “Liam,” I whispered, my voice shaky. “Liam, wake up.” He stirred slightly, groaning before his eyes slowly blinked open. “Ava…?” His voice was rough, groggy. “What… where are we?” “We’re tied up,” I said, my voice trembling as I fought back the fear rising in my chest. “Liam, I don’t know what’s happening.” His eyes darted around the room, assessing the situation much quicker than I had. He tugged at his own restraints, his jaw tightening when he realized there was no immediate escape

LIAM I stood outside Ava’s house, nerves tearing through me. It had taken me far too long to realize how deeply I had hurt her. I had been a fool—letting my own uncle, John, manipulate me into casting her aside. My heart raced as I stared at the door, hoping, praying, she would listen. I lifted my hand to knock again, but the door suddenly opened. Isabella, her stepmother, stood before me. The hostility on her face was unmistakable, her lips curling into a sneer as she crossed her arms. “What are you doing here, Liam?” Her tone was icy. “I need to see Ava,” I said, my voice pleading. “I need to talk to her. Please.” She laughed bitterly, stepping forward, almost blocking the doorway. “Talk to her? After what you did? You have no right.” My heart clenched, but I refused to give up. “Isabella, I know I made mistakes. I just need five minutes—” “No,” she cut me off sharply. “You’re not coming in, Liam. She doesn’t need to hear more of your excuses.” I was about to respond when, s

Clara paced nervously in the hallway outside her brother’s room, debating whether to knock. Her heart pounded against her ribs as she rehearsed the conversation in her head. She knew Davies was loyal to their father, John, but after everything that had happened—after all the plotting and scheming—Clara couldn’t keep quiet any longer. She had seen the damage her father had caused, not just to Liam but to the entire family, and it was time to stop it. Taking a deep breath, she raised her hand and knocked on the door. A moment later, Davies opened it, surprise etched across his face. "Clara? What’s going on? It’s late," Davies said, stepping aside to let her in. Clara entered, her steps hesitant as she glanced around his room. "We need to talk. It’s important." Davies raised an eyebrow. "Talk about what? It better be good Clara. You know I don’t like when somebody interrupts my sleep” “Oh shut up. I came to talk about something important. Dad’s plan with Ava and Liam. Don’t yo

In the dimly lit study, the heavy scent of cigar smoke lingered in the air. John Tyson sat behind his large oak desk, fingers tapping rhythmically against the polished wood as his mind churned with plans and schemes. Across from him, Clara perched on the edge of a leather armchair, fidgeting with her hands, her gaze flicking nervously between the door and her brother. "I don’t like this," she muttered, breaking the tense silence. "We’ve done enough damage. Liam’s health has improved since Ava came into his life. Maybe it’s time to let things be." John’s gaze hardened as he turned to face her, his fingers pausing mid-tap. “You think I care about Liam’s well-being, Clara? This isn’t about him. It’s about our legacy, our fortune. Ava’s nothing more than a distraction, and I’ll be damned if I let her undo years of planning.” Clara sighed, leaning back in her chair, her shoulders sagging under the weight of their family’s endless plots. “We’ve been at this for too long, Dad. We’ve done
