CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride Chapter 25— Protection — Valued
Cora's POVI had never had a day where different events happened that fast. When Calvin told me my company released footage of Fernando forcing himself on a girl, I had stopped breathing for seconds.Who would be trying to get me into trouble? “You are very worried, are you not?”I turned to Calvin and sighed. “Of course I am, people will think how can I do that to a girl. And what the hell? I have nothing to do with it. It's driving me insane.”“It'll be sorted. You should get done with the interview first.”I sighed. I was fuming with rage inside of me. Whoever did that was looking for ways to drag me in the mud and also punish Fernando I guess.And for him to force himself on a girl, he deserves to be punished and I had to make sure of it. “So now that everyone has seen who he is, he'll get his judgment, won't he?”“It doesn't function that way,” Calvin said and turned to me. “You shouldn't get involved with these people. I'll handle it.”“Handle it? How?”“Tactically, Cora. Just
CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride Chapter 26— I don't mind a divorce
Silence reigned in the car while warmth tugged at my chest as Brandon drove home. It felt different. Nobody had ever stood up for me. It wasn't until I began speaking for myself that people wouldn't dare trample on me.I glanced at Calvin and he had his gaze fixated into thin air while I wondered what he was thinking. And why did he stand up for me? Every problem I created affected him most.“Thank you,” I said out loud and he turned to me. His eyes ran over me for seconds in a scrutinizing gaze and he nodded. He looked away as fast as he could and ten seconds passed before he turned to me again.“Come closer.”Two words and the air in the car became thickened. It was an order and on an usual day I wouldn't listen but I was being controlled after everything Calvin had shown me I moved towards him, grabbed his arm and slowly leaned on him.“You will have to be careful with your movement as from today.”I nodded. Of course. I hadn't dealt with the rich that much but I have dealt with p
CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride Chapter 27— Job request
Cora's POVAs I got dressed, I didn't know what to think. Calvin had left. It was the first thing I asked Lorraine and she told me he left as early as he could. Then, I was dressing up and wondering where I was going.Calvin had given me access back to the company. At the thought of it, I paused. He had gone unimaginably soft. He stood up to me against Fernando.He went against someone out of his league because of me. I had no idea what to think. He was arrogant and prone to anger weeks ago. What the hell changed. He locked my company up as a punishment and now, I have access back.At that, I paused. Mum told me about her shop too. Her shop! Was it open now? I should probably visit her.Yea, I'll visit her first before heading to the company. At once, I headed outside.An hour passed before Brandon finally drove into the area. Dad's empire that crushed down right in front of his eyes. I hadn't been there in two years. I shut my eyes as I stared at the building that mum was building ba
CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride Chapter 28— Calvin was at the party?
I exhaled as I gulped down the last drop of the fruit juice and it was really delicious. “I bet I'm going to learn how to make this from you,” I said to Lorraine and she shrugged.“I will be glad to do that.”I nodded. It was the second day since Calvin had travelled. Yesterday the day went as usual with me checking the news and people asking why I'll do that to a very young girl.It was bad. The whole situation was bad and then there was another issue on the ground.The first information I woke up to was that MajesticBrews stock price practically went down and from what I knew, investors will start pulling out.Misery and regret had filled the inside of me at the realization that I was the reason behind all of it. Someone had used my company to post videos and currently Fernando was doing everything to make Calvin regret his actions.I was miserable.“Are you sure you can attend the meeting, you don't look like you'll be able to handle the masses.”I raised my head to Lorraine. She w
CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride Chapter 29— It was Calvin?
Even though I've been losing my mind due to the events, I still held everything together but that image. That tall frame in that picture.Calvin. He was at the party that day. I couldn't mistake his figure for anything in the world. “I was supposed to go with you.”I remembered his words. Why did he claim he wasn't at the party that night? Different thoughts filled my head. Did he see Fernando touch me? Did he see when I had all the conversations?What did he come to do? And most importantly, why did he claim he wasn't around.I sighed. “Are you okay ma? Is something wrong?” Brandon asked, concern laced in his tone and I shook my head.“Take me to the company.” Iris had dropped where we picked her in the morning while I gave her some more tasks to do. Brandon turned in the direction of the company and in no time, we were in the parking lot.I headed inside. It was quiet and I expected it. The members have gone to capture a wedding party I instructed them to do.“Mrs Logan!” A voice
CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride Chapter 30— Killed three birds with a stone
Calvin's POV“She refuses to see anyone,” one of my other guards told me and I wasn't surprised. Of course she wouldn't want to see anyone. But I wouldn’t leave without fulfilling my purpose.I headed towards her door and knocked as I tried to evoke the spirit of empathy. I wasn't empathetic.That made me stop. With Cora, I was. What was I saying? All of my emotions were evoked with her.Recalling what I was there for, I knocked again. “It's not the end of the world, Lora.”“Really? It's not the end of the world?” I heard the estranged voice from inside. “My whole body is there on the fucking internet while some monster fuck me. No one is doing nothing! And it's not the end of the world?”“It's not. He should be getting punished, not you.” I muttered. Of course, that jerk should be the one getting punished. More than that even.My hand fisted as I recalled that night. That night where he had his hand around Cora. I saw everything and that made my blood boil and because of that, he wou
CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride Chapter 31— Confrontation
The next day, I was pulling into the compound. Three days spent from home. One to figure out where the girl was staying. Two to go to her and here I was the next day.I got out of the car and headed into the living room and at once, Lorraine reached me. “Welcome,” she smiled wholeheartedly and pulled me in for a side hug that was very quick.“I'll prepare your bath. Warm water right?”“Yes,” I nodded. When I need to think, I used the cold water but not at the moment. I wanted to be relaxed.“I'll go now,” she told me and I headed towards my room when Lorraine called me, “you didn't ask about Cora.”At that, I stopped. “Yes, I didn't.”“Why?” She reached me and gazed at me, “I thought things were better between you two now, is it not?”“No,” I replied sharply. “Things can't be better between me and her,” it was a short statement but a very comprehensible one.“Really?” The faint voice asked and I raised my head to see Cora descending from the stairs. “That's why you thought of doing th
CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride Chapter 32— She wanted a divorce
Cora's POVI looked miserable and it made me hate myself. The time I looked like this was when I finally left the goddamn marriage. My eyes snapped shut while I felt the emotions deeply.The protection that day in front of Fernando. How Calvin stood up for me. Was it a lie? Or was it because he felt guilty that he caused all of that?Guilt? Hell no. He wasn't even guilty. He wasn't guilty when I confronted him yesterday. I shut my eyes. How'd I let it happen?The girl that trusted people slowly slipped back into me. I was beginning to see him as a better person. And he wasn't. First, he made that monster come after me.And he posted a video where a young girl was on the whole internet being forcefully touched. What kind of psycho is that?At the word Psycho, everything in me stopped. Jayden mentioned it. He did! He said Calvin was a Psycho. Was he really one?I shut my eyes. Did I escape a Psycho to be with another? Heavens. I needed all of that to stop. Standing up, I headed to the

CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride Chapter 49— Love?
Cora's POVAs I walked towards the dining room, my chest tingled with a different kind of feeling. Yesterday, Calvin had acted the most gentle I had ever seen him.He had taken me to my room, waited as I showered and saw me go to sleep before leaving and nothing had ever surprised me that much.Was he really the man I met on the first day? I reached the table and Calvin's scent greeted me first before his voice did.“Did you sleep well?”I nodded as Calvin ran his eyes on my body till they settled back on my face and he said the words, “you look beautiful.”Was that the first time? I bit the insides of my cheeks so my smile could look the faintest they ever could. “Thank you.”“You two sure look cute that way,” Lorraine's voice dripped in and I turned to her, “sorry for my interruption. Came to drop this,” Lorraine dropped the jug of tea on the table and left hurriedly.Silence reigned as we ate and drank and Calvin was finally ready to leave. “Have a good day, Cora.”I nodded as I ra
CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride Chapter 48— Vulnerable
I stilled as Calvin narrowed an eye when he stepped in while I gazed at the woman. She was in a black top, a cream coloured blazer on her and a knee length skirt to match.She was wearing nothing out of the ordinary but I hated it. Why was she with Calvin?“You're still up,” Calvin was surprised and I nodded as I stood, my thoughts messy. Why did he bring a woman home right after we had sex?Why was a woman with him in the middle of the night? The woman adorned with red lipstick smiled at me. “Mrs Logan? It's a pleasure to meet you.”“Same,” I forced as I gazed at Calvin with a need for an explanation.“Cora, meet my new assistant. The ban was lifted and my company can start production now. I need to complete something with her so we're working till the next morning.”“A female assistant,” I muttered. When I looked it up then, Calvin didn't have many female workers and I never saw a female assistant.“You don't think it's wrong to have your assistant with you in the middle of the nigh
CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride Chapter 47— First night together
Fours? My jaw almost dropped and then Calvin raised a brow and at once, I was bent on my fours— for Calvin.“I'm about to show you another side of yourself,” Calvin whispered and he reached behind me and I stilled as I felt his dick on my butt.We were not about to have anal, were we?“Calvin, I can't do anal,” I ragged out and he scoffed.“You're dripping wet for me, I wouldn't starve those pretty lips of yours that I wanted to see again,” Calvin emphasized on that word, reminding me of the other day before I felt his hand on my waist, rolling my dress up.“Look ahead, Cora,”And then I saw the mirror. Myself in the mirror, shuddering as Calvin lifts my gown to my waist. And in a yank, the panties were off.Calvin inhaled a sharp breath then he cussed, “Fuck Cora,” and the hand met my butt, gently massaging my butt cheeks.“This ass is exactly like I want it.”Of course, I used the gym. After leaving a 2 year relationship, I used the gym for my mental health too.“Calvin,” I murmured
CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride Chapter 46— Way out
Cora's POV “She's so smart,” Calvin started as we transferred the video onto the laptop. I was seated beside Calvin while Alicia gazed at us with fury.We agreed to meet where she handed us the footage. Footage where Jayden ordered the poisoning of the drinks. He had meticulously caused a distraction the moment the car of the governor pulled into the hotel.And when the guards headed out to clear it, he had the drinks changed. Of course, which one of the guards would have thought to watch over a new wine completely protected in a bottle.No one would have ever thought of it. He's a genius, I must say.“Completely transferred,” Calvin said and at once Alicia stood to her feet, grabbed the disc because she still needed it. She and Jayden had planned to take both of us down.So while she didn't trust Jayden, she secretly took a video which was to our advantage. They're both sneaky and cunning. I like it.“Now, you both stay away from me or else I'll hunt you down,” her eyes sparkled wit
CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride Chapter 45— I needed that
Calvin’s POV Those pretty lips I had right under my gaze played repeatedly in my head as I buttoned the last button of my shirt.Yesterday while she folded her arms around herself yesterday as we headed towards the car, all I wanted to do was take away her worry.Seeing her so small and pitiable as she panicked yesterday hit a muscle in me intensifying my already feeling of guilt.And all I wanted to do was take away her worry. A good orgasm was one of the ways out and I took it but that definitely had an effect on me.Swollen and hard for her, I wanted to be inside of her but I couldn't. She hated me enough already.I sighed, grabbed my jacket and headed out of my room. Another day to hunt down Jayden. I probably had to see him. My company was upside down at the moment but I'd correct that.I got to the diner and met Lorraine pouring juice into a glass. I glanced at my seat and met my dish on the table. “Who are you pouring that for?”“Cora. She requested for one,” Lorraine replied
CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride Chapter 44— Lust
Warning: An average sexual content below As we sat in the car, I watched Calvin make a dozen calls, demanding for all footage across the road to the hotel the governor spent the night at.We were back at home but none of us were willing to go out especially since Calvin hasn't figured out a way.I understood him. Even though Jayden was a prime suspect, I'm sure he still hoped it wasn't him— his childhood friend.Because of Jayden his company's license was seized. His company was charged for food poisoning. The governor and his wife were in critical condition while the governor's aides only had stomach indigestion.And as expected from people who drank the wine at the reception, they claimed they also experienced stomach issues Now I was watching Calvin make thousands of calls to be able to see if he can get any tip. Any footage or proof.A call came in and he picked, “the footage was wiped out.”“God Dammit! What do you mean by that!” He screamed and ended the call and as I watched
CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride Chapter 43— Getting proof
Cora's POV“So you're dragging me into this huh? To help you save your company. I do not have to be involved in this,” I told Calvin when we reached the car. For such a vile person, I didn't need to be around them.“You're right,” he stared at me, not a hint of emotion in his eyes, “But it's Alicia here, haven't you always looked for a way to pay back? It's your chance here.”I stopped. That woman. She made Kaylee get arrested. Remembering those innocent eyes I saw earlier when I video called her after Brandon got her out, I decided if anyone needed justice, it was her.“Okay,” I plainly muttered and got into the car. Calvin got in and I watched how his muscles flexed as he grabbed hold of the wheel before heading outside.Calvin turned to me and we held eye contact before he smirked, “I like that eyes on me,”“I rather stare at a crazy man,” I rolled my eyes before taking my eyes off him. Nothing I hated more than the fact that his presence, his manly body affected me.Minutes passed
CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride Chapter 42— Let's get to work
Calvin's POVI have dealt with tons of situations like that but it still puts me in a state of shock as I thought of Iris. She was up to something. And she knew I was investigating her?How the hell did she know that?I stared down at the tape. If things went well, it'll prove that Kaylee didn't delete those videos. But— I paused as I grabbed my laptop. It should show who did that and probably show the person who served Cora that drink.I immediately began playing the video, trying to skim through but I knew it was no use if I was skimming through. I sent it to my men at once and dialled Brandon's number.“Prepare to go get Kaylee out. I'll send you the details.”Within 30 minutes, I had my men watch about a day's video and the truth was out. Alicia did tamper with the recorded videos. She deleted the videos.But— the person who spiked her drink wasn't shown. One of the waiters probably got it done outside the main hall.I gave orders to Brandon who questioned me but I gave no reply.
CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride Chapter 41— Hidden intentions
Calvin's POVI stirred at the location indicator on the GPS and my brows creased. Alicia and Jayden were together minutes ago. I had managed to get my best hacker to get their location and transmit it to me.Now, one of them was leaving the villa.Different thoughts ran in my head before I steered the wheel and headed in the direction of whosoever was leaving.One thing was certain. It'd be related to the case. When I gazed down at the location transmitter, I raised a brow.Whoever was leaving, was heading to the reception where the wedding party took place.Minutes passed and I saw the red pointer stop moving. When I increased my speed, I reached the reception and I found the cops still guarding the entrance.As I got down from the car, I sighted the familiar car. It belonged to Jayden. So, did Jayden drive the car there?The decoration of the reception was still intact and gently, I made my way towards the entrance.“You're not allowed here,” one of the cops stopped me with a stretc
