Cripple Billionaire Husband Chapter 8
As the driver opened the car door for her, Lauren's heart was racing as she arrived at the Magnus mansion. With its imposing construction, the house loomed huge. Clutching her purse closely, she stepped outside while trying not to display her nervousness.Dan was standing at the door, his businesslike manner unwavering. "Mrs. Magnus," he nodded courteously. Mr. Magnus is anticipating your arrival. Follow me, please. Lauren whispered, "Thank you," looking around as she followed Dan inside. With its lofty ceilings, glistening chandeliers, and marble flooring that glistened in the gentle lighting, the interior was every bit as imposing as the façade. It was unlike anything she had ever seen. Dan guided her to Alex's study and opened the door after a brief knock. "She's here, Mr. Magnus," he declared. Alex's face was unreadable when he looked up from his desk. "Enter," he said. With trembling hands, Lauren entered the house. She said, "You wanted to see me?" Alex motioned to the chair

Staring at the contract Alex had given her, Lauren perched on the edge of her bed. Her mind was racing, and the words appeared to blur. She was shocked by what she was reading. Earlier that night, Alex had said icily, "Sign this." "To make sure we both get what we need, it's just a simple agreement." She remembered their chat, and her hands shook. She recalled how she had glanced up at him, expecting to see a human face, but his expression was unreadable. Flashback: Lauren paused before saying, "You can't expect me to just agree to this." She looked over the terms of the contract as she held it in her hands. Alex's face remained unchanged. He remarked, "You stole my money to save your mother." "This is the cost you incur. Lauren, it's a commercial transaction. Not much more. "A business deal?" she repeated, her tone tinted with disbelief. "Alex, you're discussing our life. This is not only a transaction. His blue, piercing eyes met hers as he wheeled closer. "In my universe, ever

Lauren kept thinking about the note that was left at the gate to the mansion. While she sat in the dining room, gazing at her unfinished meal, the words, "Stay away from Alex, or you'll regret it," kept repeating in her head.Alex came in with a composed expression on his face, but his eyes showed worry. Rolling his wheelchair toward her, he added, "You didn't eat." "Lauren, you must maintain your strength."Lauren gave him a quick look while speaking quietly. When someone tries to harm us, how can I remain strong? It's no longer just about you, Alex. They are also aiming for me.Alex's palm covered hers as he reached out. "I will not permit anything to occur to you. I have requested additional security. Dan has already increased the number of patrols surrounding the estate by twofold.Lauren nodded, but her uneasiness was obvious. "What if it's insufficient? What happens if Jake manages to get past them?Alex's eyes grew gloomy. "Lauren, Jake won't prevail. I'll see to that. But you

There was too much tension in the mansion. Lauren watched Alex pace back and forth while perched on the edge of the couch in his study. The ferocity in his gaze was reflected in his angular movements. Dan was standing close by, rummaging through folders, his jaw clenched in annoyance.Dan stated, "The stock is still declining." Jake's spill came at the ideal moment. Investors are in a panic.Alex came to a sudden halt and struck the desk with his fist. He's pressuring us. However, I will not allow him to take what I have created.Lauren got up and walked cautiously toward him. She said, "Is there anything I can do?"Alex gazed at her, and his eyes softened a little. "Your presence is sufficient," he declared. Then he became firm once more. Jake won't stop, though. We must fight back, and we will begin by addressing those untrue reports. Speak to the media, Dan. Ensure they are aware of the truth.Dan gave a nod. "Working on it already, sir."Alex leaned back in his chair and massaged

A knock on Lauren's bedroom door roused her. She sat up, half tired and sleepy, and yelled, "Come in."Dan came in, looking abnormally agitated. He had an envelope in his hand. He put it on the bedside table and added, "This was left at the front gate this morning." "Mr. Magnus and you are the intended recipients." As Lauren picked up the envelope, her fingers shaking, her heart fell. Carefully opening it, she read the handwritten note that was inside: Alex, you can't hide forever. Your beloved wife is now playing the game as well. Her blood ran cold as she gasped. She said, "Dan, who could have done this?" Dan's mouth clenched. We're looking into it. Nothing of value can be seen in the security footage. However, I've already told Mr. Magnus. Alex emerged at the doorway, his face a mask of rage, before Lauren could reply. With his gaze fixed on the letter she was holding, he wheeled into the room. "Hand it over to me," he insisted. Lauren silently passed it over. Alex's jaw tigh

With her eye fixed on the engraved words on the gate, Lauren stood motionless in the hallway: "You can’t protect her forever." Wheeling closer to her, Alex stared at the icy words. Lauren could sense the storm building beneath his placid veneer, but his face was unreadable. "This is getting worse," she said, holding her arms tight as a shiver went through her. Alex's voice was rough and icy as he turned to face Dan. "I want the security staff to double right away. Bring in more security and ensure that Lauren is always watched. Dan gave a nod. I get it, sir. I will immediately coordinate with the team. Lauren turned to Alex as Dan walked away, her voice shaking. "Is this Jake again, in your opinion?" Alex's mouth clenched. "It is beyond question. He's clearly trying to use you to reach me with this message. Lauren was devastated. She didn't want to be the cause of Alex's increased stress. "Perhaps I should go for a bit," she said. "Until this passes." Alex's tone was forceful

Alex wheeled himself into his mansion's living room, his face as harsh and icy as ever. His uncle, Mr. Magnus, and his cousin, Jake, were sitting pleasantly on the plush couches when he suddenly halted. Their tones were light and sarcastic as they laughed over a drink.Alex said in a cold tone, "What are you doing here?" Mr. Magnus grinned. "Alex, what sort of greeting is that? We are related. Is there a reason we shouldn't come?"Swirling the whiskey in his glass, Jake laughed. "Alex, calm down. All we're doing is catching up. How is married life going for you?" He spoke in a sarcastic tone. Alex tensed his jaw, but he didn't fall for their trick. He said plainly, "Go if you're here to waste my time." Mr. Magnus's face became serious as he leaned forward. "Now, nephew, now. We're just worried. Getting married to a random girl? A nobody? It's not exactly the best course of action." Alex shot out, "You have no business knowing what I decide." And my wife is Lauren. Be respectful. J

Lauren stood in the courtroom as she signed the marriage certificate, her palms perspiring. As she looked at Alex, who was sitting in his wheelchair, cool and collected, her heart was pounding. Behind her, there was a whisper, "I'm amazed that you're doing this." She kept her eyes on the page in front of her and didn't turn around. Alex's helper, Dan, came over to them holding a pile of papers. "Mr. Magnus, everything is in order," he said. "Mrs. Magnus, welcome to the family," he continued, turning to Lauren. Lauren forced herself to swallow and forced a small grin. "I'm grateful," she whispered. That was the first time that day that Alex looked at her. He had unfathomable blue eyes. "You're done here. "You may now depart," he stated plainly. At his tone, Lauren winced. "Go? However— "You've fulfilled your portion," Alex cut in, his tone icy. "For the time being, return to your life. Dan will make the car arrangements". Alex had already turned away, indicating that the conversa
