Captivating The Brutish Billionaire Chapter Thirty Eight
~Agathe~When morning came, I woke up brimming with such joy that I momentarily forgot all the troubles burdening my heart. All I could think of was Gunther and how we cuddled on the carpeted floor of the library after what we did last night. My face heated up as I began kicking the air and tossing and turning on the bed, trying not to scream too loudly. "Damn, I couldn't believe I made love to Gunther so many times." I whispered in the air. I felt like I was dreaming. It felt weird but somehow familiar. As if I had done this with him before, even though I knew it couldn't be possible.I then sat up, realizing that I was on Gunther's bed, dressed in his clothes. I recalled him cleaning me up last night before I blacked out.He took care of me and just thinking about it made my heart skip a beat again. I looked around his room, perhaps to thank him, but he was not there. I was about to get up when I noticed Carlyle entering the room with a big smile on her face. "Good morning, Mo

~Agathe~Carlyle was gasping for air, drowning, while those other little girls simply laughed at her. The class had barely started ten minutes ago and things were already taking a turn for the worse.Tears streamed down my face as I sprinted down the bleachers as quickly as I could. My only thought was to save Carlyle and get her out of the water.However, before I could even reach the edge of the pool, Calixto had beaten me to it, diving fearlessly into the water. In a matter of seconds, Calixto had swum over to Carlyle, scooping her petite frame into his arms. Carlyle was sobbing and trembling uncontrollably as she clung tightly to Calixto.I was so stunned that I couldn't move for a few moments. My heart was racing, pounding against my chest, and I could still feel the tears streaming down my face.I only came back to my senses when I saw Calixto swimming back toward us. As he approached the pool's edge, Yesenia and I rushed to help him lift Carlyle out of the water.I took off my

~Agathe~"I was so terrified, Daddy. I thought I was going to die." Carlyle sobbed on Gunther's shoulders. In that instant, all my thoughts about Gunther disappeared completely. I knelt beside him and softly tapped Carlyle's back, reassuring her that her feelings were valid and understood. Carlyle noticed my presence and released herself from her father's embrace, wrapping her arms around my neck. I continued to gently pat her back, allowing her to cry on my shoulder as well.We remained in that comforting embrace for a few moments, while I could sense Gunther's eyes were all over me.Then, I noticed Yesenia bowing towards us before she turned and walked away, seemingly heading towards something or someone else. I followed her movements with my eyes and noticed how she walked directly towards Calixto, handing him clean and dry clothes as well.Although they were too far away for me to hear their conversation, I could see the shock on Calixto's face. It seemed that he had forgotten a

~Agathe~‘The lady who gave birth to Miss Carlyle also came from Snowflake Village.’Those words echoed in my mind, repeating over and over again. I felt weak as I heard a ringing sound filling both of my ears.I nervously sipped on my glass of water, my hands trembling as the weight of realization dawned upon me. That simply cannot be true!Snowflake Village is a small village. I am not kidding when I say that I am familiar with every person who resides there.If the old attorney's statement holds any truth, the only people I can imagine being Carlyle's mother would be myself, my best friend Graziella, and Filomena, who was the manager at the restaurant where I formerly worked.We were the only people who were still unmarried among the residents of my village. All the other women residing there have either been married, divorced, widowed, or are over the age of fifty, including my mom. Filo, on the other hand, would be swiftly excluded from the list since everyone in the village is

~Agathe~I spent hours and hours and hours crying in the library, in a hidden and dark spot where no one would find me.I was screaming, but it was the kind of scream without a voice because that was the only way I could vent my feelings. [Flashback]"We shouldn't talk here, young lady." Yesenia murmured, her eyes darting around nervously, clearly filled with fear. "Let's find another place to talk.”She took hold of my arm and guided me into the mansion. As soon as we were inside, we walked down the hallway and made our way into the private library."There's a cozy reading nook toward the far right side of this library. We can have our conversation there." She said, her tension palpable.Sensing her unease, I remained silent as we made our way to the reading nook she was talking about. "Woah." I whispered in astonishment as we arrived at the reading nook.The reading nook was nestled in the corner, surrounded by dark wood bookshelves. There was a central table and a plush cushioned

~Agathe~Drops of sweat slid down my forehead, our nerves on edge as we wondered about who entered the library just now. Time ticked away in silence, without the sound of any footsteps, yet neither Yesenia nor I dared to take a look."Let's find out who it is." Yesenia suggested, but I quickly shook my head in disagreement."Let's give it a little more time. It could be Gunther." I whispered back to her.However, our patience wore thin as time went by. “Young lady, should we-”I hushed Yesenia again and was about to speak when I felt a cold and wet nose nudge my arm. I turned my head in surprise, only to find Mishka, wagging her tail cheerfully at us."Mishka." I excitedly murmured, and a smile spread across my face as I stroked her head.However, my eyes widened as a thought crossed my mind. “Gunther must have been the one who brought Mishka here.”To finally ease our worry, I cautiously peeked behind the couch and scanned the entire library from our hiding spot."Goddamn. There's no

~Agathe~I died inside, my heart was profoundly shattered and crushed. She cannot remember Gunther, but those memories can return.It can come back. I married Gunther without realizing that the woman he truly loved was still out there and just could not remember him.“No, this can't be happening.”"Hey, young lady, are you still with me?" Yesenia asked, waving her hand in front of my face as if I had been lost in a daze.I abruptly stood up and left Yesenia without uttering a single word."Young lady! Where are you going?" She called out in a loud voice, clearly taken aback.I was nearly at the door when Yesenia grabbed my arm. "Young lady!" She exclaimed."What?" I shouted back, with tears streaming down my face. Yesenia's eyes widened, and her mouth fell open in surprise."What else do you want me to hear? Yen, for goodness' sake! Carlyle's mother is still alive! She's out there! She may not remember everything now, but what will happen when she eventually does?” I turned to face

~Agathe~ The pain is overwhelming and the truth is too much to bear. The realization that I have been deceived and lied to, even by my own mother, is agonizing.The pain was so intense that it numbed my entire body, making me paralyzed.

But, I couldn't care less because I was in so much pain.How could my mother keep the truth hidden from me?

However, that didn't mean I wouldn't notice the physical signs.Four years ago, if my memory serves me right, I repeatedly asked her about the strange scars on my body, the sudden weight gain, and why the bloody hell my stomach

~Agathe~[Present Time]I could hear faint voices talking around me. I looked around the darkness that surrounded me but saw no one.I felt like I was floating, but my feet remained on the ground. I felt hopeless.I want to go back to my mother because she still needs me. My father just died, and I am the only one she has left.“Her finger moved, Doctor Wright!” I heard someone say something beside me, but when I looked to my side, I saw no one.“Hello? Who are you? Where exactly am I? Where is my mother?" I asked in a loud voice, without even opening my mouth.“She's regaining consciousness. Quickly, call Gunther.”“But, Doctor. He is downstairs, discussing something important with his family. What are we supposed to do?”“Check her pulse. Check everything.” Before I could respond, I felt something powerful catapult me through the air.“Arghhhhhhhhh!”Before I knew it, I opened my eyes again to see a bright light aimed directly at my eyes. “She is awake! The patient is awake, doctor!

~Agathe~[Flashback, fifteen years ago]It has been a week since the incident happened and my mother has never been the same. She tried so many times to end her life and I will always be the one to witness it all.I haven't slept a wink since last night, and my stomach is growling for food. The food in our fridge and pantry were already gone by the third day.I had been begging my mother for food, but she would always kick me out of her room and lock herself in there for the whole day.To ease my hunger, I would curl up and hug my knees on my bed while crying myself to sleep. This is the fourth day that I can't tolerate my hunger anymore, I am beyond starving.My legs wobbled when I got out of my bed. My vision was blurry, and my head felt as if a hammer was constantly pounding on it.I feel so sick and helpless but I refuse to take this nonsense any longer. If my mother is unable to provide for me, I will have to do it myself from now on.My father did not sacrifice his life for me o

~Agathe~[Flashback, fifteen years ago]What I saw next in front of me wasn't what I expected, as everything happened so suddenly.Three strong, consecutive punches landed directly on the tall boy's face, and I was too stunned to even react."Do you think you can fool me, dumbass? How many more beatings do you need to understand? I can see right through your idiotic mind!”The tall boy collapsed to the ground, but the old man continued to assault him, kicking his stomach and his back numerous times.My mouth dropped open as I watched the horrifying scene in front of me in sheer terror. It was like I could feel every painful hit and kick from the old man in my own body.But, I couldn't understand why the tall boy never cried or shouted for help. He only kept his eyes closed and silently endured the pain.I stood there quietly, rooted to the spot where I was standing, not knowing what to do. Once the old man was satisfied, he lifted the tall boy's body from the ground and forced him to

~Agathe~[Flashback, fifteen years ago]I tried to calm my racing heart by tapping my chest a few times and taking a deep breath. I almost got caught!But, why is my heart racing so much?Perhaps, my heart was racing from the pain of witnessing the wild boars being killed by my father and his comrades.Perhaps, it was beating fast out of nervousness because some strangers had appeared, and they seemed very intimidating.“A pleasant morning. I am Clermont Silvestri, current chief executive officer of Silvestri Group of Companies.” I heard someone say in a deep, scary voice.All of a sudden, I could hear curious whispers from my father's comrades. I frowned because I don't know what a chief executive officer is all about.“We are from Stonewood City.” Gasps from my father's comrades suddenly echoed through the air once again. Stonewood City?I am not quite sure where that is. I have only known our village my entire life."I have recently bought this entire village, including all its es

~Agathe~I could hear Gunther's screams ripping through the air. He sounded so desperate and nearly begging.It was so heartbreaking to hear him like that. I wanted to open my eyes and comfort him, but I couldn't.Then, out of nowhere, I felt powerful hands gently lift my body onto something. Afterwards, I was hoisted into the air and was transported somewhere.I could hear the sirens of the ambulance nearby. I could hear everyone shouting and barking commands.But, Gunther's desperate voice stood out to me the most.I knew that I was fighting for my dear life. But, somehow, everything felt surreal that I felt like I was merely dreaming.Then, from the absolute darkness that surrounded me, I heard a faint voice. "Agathe.”It sounded so familiar and soothing, I suddenly yearned to hear it again. I looked around the darkness that surrounded me, but I saw nothing.As I wandered around, tears began to form in my eyes. “Who is that?” I asked in a loud voice, without opening my mouth."Swee

~Agathe~Being in Stonewood City for almost a week has made me realize that I can also love this kind of life, with Gunther and Carlyle.And, when I finally accepted that Gunther had managed to sneak into my heart, I never anticipated the pain of repeatedly witnessing his mother's disdain towards me.Seeing her eyes full of disgust and hatred directed towards me made me feel hurt, beyond my understanding.Deep within my heart, I longed for her acceptance of me, perhaps echoing the desire of every daughter-in-law out there.I was about to turn around and walked away from there as quietly as possible but I was taken aback to see both Peter and Calixto standing behind me.As if it wasn't enough, both of them moved and stood on my left and right side. It was as if they were silently telling everyone that they are going to protect me no matter what.And, it didn't matter to them that it was their boss's mother they might have to confront. I was even astonished by how quickly Calixto had fo

~Agathe~It was lunchtime when I noticed something peculiar. I was having lunch with Carlyle as Gunther had left for the office earlier in the morning."Belv." I called Belvedere's name, who was standing beside the dining table.I had invited them to join me and Carlyle on the table, but as usual, they strongly declined. I had already given up on persuading them, as they are deeply committed to their job."Where is Yesenia? I don't recall seeing her all morning." I remarked, even noticing Carlyle furrowing her eyebrows at me."I checked her room, Mommy. Yennie is still fast asleep." Carlyle mentioned casually and then continued to devour her food.I noticed something on the corner of her lips and gently wiped it away with my finger. "Be careful, sweetheart."Afterward, I turned to Belvedere with a worried expression in my eyes. "Is she still sleeping, Belv? In all the days I've been here, I've never known Yesenia to sleep in. Is everything alright? Could she be unwell?”"I'll have a h

~Agathe~"I was wondering what took you so long, love.” Gunther's voice was cold and threatening, sending an instant shiver down my spine.“Carlyle and I were waiting for you in the entertainment room. She had already fallen asleep while waiting. While here you are, talking with some motherfucking bastard behind my back once again.”Gunther stressed the final words, his tone clearly laced with sarcasm. I noticed Thaddeus let out a deep sigh as if he was growing weary of his cousin's drama."You mentioned it yourself, dear cousin. We were just talking. When did having a conversation with someone become a criminal offense?”I turned to Thaddeus, feeling the urge to scold him. "Goodness gracious, don't provoke him. He might end up hitting you again." I whispered, recalling the incident that occurred at his boutique.However, Thaddeus smirked at me, showing no signs of being affected in the slightest. I clenched my teeth in pure annoyance towards him.I suddenly gasped so loud as I felt G

~Agathe~I just finished eating dinner with Gunther and Carlyle when Yesenia unexpectedly tugged me to the side, catching me off guard.“What’s the matter, Yen?” I asked her, a bit annoyed at the sudden pulling.However, as I caught sight of the urgency in her eyes, any trace of annoyance I had felt instantly dissipated in the air.Yesenia motioned for me to be quiet and glanced around discreetly. She patiently waited until Gunther and Carlyle ascended the stairs, heading towards the entertainment room.We all planned to watch a movie together that night.“I need to tell you something, young lady. This won't take long, or else the young master might notice and become suspicious.” She whispered.Afterward, when nobody was looking, Yesenia discreetly guided me into the maid's quarters.I squinted my eyes, a slight throbbing sensation pulsating in my head. It felt as though I had already entered those quarters before, but I can't remember when or how.Once we entered the quarters, Yeseni
