Forced To be Mrs. Billionaire XXXVI
"H-How did you get here? Why does it seem like you weren’t shot? How did you manage to free yourself so quickly? And how did you come here alone?" I bombarded him with questions as he helped me stand.Yohan shot me a sharp look, annoyance flickering in his eyes."Seriously, Cosette? You're asking me that now when we only have a few minutes to escape? Can’t I just answer all of that later—when we’re already out of here?" he said irritably.I clamped my mouth shut, afraid that pressing him further would only make him angrier. I wasn’t trying to be difficult—I just wanted answers. But as always, his stubbornness got in the way."Hey, listen..."I looked up when Yohan gently lifted my chin, his expression softening."I’m not mad at you, okay? I’ll answer all your questions, but not now. We need to get out of here before Parker catches us," he said seriously.I swallowed hard and nodded. Yohan gave me a faint smile, his hand brushing against my cheek.Our moment was abruptly cut short when

"Are you involved with the mafia?"Yohan froze, his hand pausing mid-motion as he applied ointment to my knee. We were in our room, and this was the first time I had a chance to talk to him. Earlier, there had been another man with us in the car on our way home. I couldn’t understand their conversation, so I decided to sleep. By the time I woke up, we were already home.Now, I sat on the bed, pressing a cold compress to the bruises on my face—bruises left by Uncle’s repeated slaps. My face was battered, and if anyone saw me like this, they might assume Yohan was responsible. I didn’t want rumors spreading, so I had already decided to take two weeks off work to rest and regain my strength."Why are you asking me that, Cosette?" Yohan smirked, resuming his task. "I’m not part of any mafia group."Silence settled between us again. I watched him carefully. His expression was serious as he tended to my wounds, and I had the distinct feeling that he wanted to tell me something but couldn’t

Early in the morning, I was surprised. For my safety, I agreed with Yohan that I should have bodyguards. For now, I'll take a break, stay home, avoid going out, and refrain from working for a while."Is your stomach hurting? Is that why you left the event so suddenly, Setta?"I almost spit out the juice I was drinking when my sister, Geneva, asked that. She had visited me in my office at Warren Empire, saying she had good news to share. I'm happy for my sister because Dad finally agreed to let her continue her studies in fashion design. Geneva went through a lot of struggles before Dad finally gave in and allowed her to pursue her dream.I'm genuinely happy for her, especially since I can see that she truly loves her husband.Geneva was extremely worried about me, wondering why I had suddenly disappeared from our event at the new Warren Empire hotel. I still remember that night when I saw Geneva and Sylvie in the hall. I told them I was going to the restroom, but I never returned beca

"How are you and Zion, Cosette?"I paused mid-bite when Dad asked me that. I was visiting my parents since it had been a while since I last came over, and I missed both Mommy and Daddy. They still didn't know what had happened to me, and I had no intention of telling them—I didn’t want to add to their worries.I forced a faint smile and answered, "We're good, Dad. On Monday, we're going to Spain. His cousin is getting married, and he wants me to go with him."Dad nodded and continued eating. I glanced at Mom, who was already looking at me. We exchanged smiles.After dinner, Dad asked me to follow him to his office. He looked deep in thought, his usual serious expression even more intense than usual. Once inside, he turned to face me with an unreadable look."Zion has already signed the partnership contract between Allen Company and Warren Empire. I'm confident that by next month, we'll be leading in the rankings, and more investors will follow," Dad said, his tone businesslike.I wasn

"Señorito! ¡Nos alegramos de que esté aquí! [Sir, we are glad that you are finally here!]"I was pleasantly confused by the words of a man who approached Yohan and me as we disembarked from our private jet. I wasn’t sure how long our journey to Spain had taken, but I knew it was a quick flight, and we had arrived late at night. Several men approached us, accompanied by bodyguards stationed around the area. Our private jet had landed in an open field, not at an airport."Es bueno verte aquí, Vasco. [It’s good to see you here, Vasco,]" Yohan said to the man in front of us, smiling.Unable to contain my curiosity, I tugged at Yohan’s shirt, causing him to look at me with a raised eyebrow, as if asking what I needed."What are you guys talking about? I can’t understand anything, Yohan. Why don’t you speak English so I can join the conversation?" I asked him.He chuckled. "We were just greeting each other, Cosette," Yohan replied.Yohan wrapped an arm around me and turned back to the man h

"Finally, we've met again, my cousin.""Congrats in advance on your wedding tomorrow, Juliette," Yohan said with a smile to his cousin.After waking up and getting ready, Yohan and I left our room and headed downstairs. His relatives greeted us immediately, including his cousin Juliette, who was getting married the next day."Thank you, Yohan. I'm so glad to meet your beautiful esposa! It's nice to meet you, Cosette," Juliette said warmly, embracing me.I learned that she was Aunt Elise's daughter, and her brothers, Dante and Charles, were also there, along with their cousin Max. Despite his busy schedule and the distance, Yohan had made the trip for his cousin's wedding. Juliette was the only girl among the five, and they treated her like a princess, so they all had to be present for her special day.Wanting to give Yohan time with his cousins, I chose to join Aunt Elise in their grand kitchen to help with preparations for the evening meal. Even though they were distant relatives of

"You may now kiss your bride!"The church erupted into applause as the newlyweds, Juliette and her husband, Colton, shared their first kiss. Yohan and I sat side by side, me in a pink gown and Yohan in a tuxedo. After the initial kiss, the couple had a photo session inside the church. Many guests attended the wedding, as Lachlan was also a businessman, and Juliette had a large extended family.After the church photoshoot, we headed to their wedding reception at a private resort. I was surprised to see some famous local celebrities—faces I usually only saw on TV. Yohan explained that Juliette had many friends in the entertainment industry because she was a fashion designer.At our table, Yohan was deeply engaged in a serious conversation with his cousin Max, who was also his business partner. Not wanting to interrupt them, I simply smiled and stood up when I saw Juliette and Colton approaching.As soon as Juliette and I got close, I hugged her, and she hugged me back."Congratulations,

Yohan is genuinely in love with me. He loves me! Am I dreaming?Yohan was about to kiss me again when I pushed him away. It all happened so fast—I needed assurance.I wouldn't allow this to be just a prank or a dream. I'd throw a fit!"What?!" he asked irritably, as if annoyed that I had pushed him away.See? He's scowling at me again! I thought he said he loves me. Shouldn't he be sweet to the person he loves? But Yohan hasn't changed."You love me? I don't believe you. You're just pranking me!" I said with a frown, looking at him."Prank? What kind of word is that?" Yohan asked in confusion, furrowing his brows."You don't know what 'prank' means?" I asked, unable to believe it."No, but I do know the words 'I love you,' so shut the fuck up and let me kiss you again."Yohan kissed me again, his lips capturing mine as he grabbed my waist. His kisses felt different this time—tender, as if he was afraid of hurting me. I immediately wrapped my arms around his neck, deepening the kiss.A

Yohan's POV"Aunt Lenore, where are you? I'm already here inside the mall, and I can't find you. I still have a meeting to attend.""Son, didn't I tell you I'm in the salon area? Near the food court. I'm still relaxing here and chatting with my friend. I just have something to give you, and you can go to your meeting. You'll see me right away because there are only two customers in the salon since I rented it for me and my friend."I sighed and ended the call between Aunt Lenore and me. I started walking towards the food court area she mentioned. It took me a while to walk because there were too many people in the mall today, and an old person was walking in front of me. I couldn't overtake them because the people were packed tightly on the first floor of the mall. Why are there so many people here? Is this how it is inside a mall? I never go to these kinds of places because I don't need anything here.Why did Aunt Lenore choose to have her hair done at the mall? We have salons in our

Cosette’s POV"We need to go shopping, Setta! Right, Johiel?" Franklyn said with a smile as he also asked my son."Yes, Papa Franklyn!" Johiel replied enthusiastically, jumping up and down.I sighed and looked at Iris, silently asking for her help. She sniffed and spoke to her husband."Love, you don't need to take Johiel with you. He can stay here with me at home," Iris said softly to Franklyn as she sat on the couch, gently caressing her big belly.Franklyn grinned sheepishly and couldn't utter a word."Mama Iris! I want to go to the mall!" Johiel said tearfully as he approached his Mama Iris and held her hand.Iris glanced at me, as if asking me what she should say or do. I rubbed my forehead and took a deep breath while looking at Johiel, who was now approaching me and hugging my waist, looking up at me. "Mommy, can we go to the mall, please?" Johiel said, trying to be cute."Just let him go, Setta!" I heard Franklyn say, so I glanced at him and gave him a stern look. He just gri

Cosette’s POVMama was very happy when I told her that Johiel and I are going home to Los Angeles. She mentioned again about our old house, which is now under Yohan's name. I didn't have any plans to visit Yohan and negotiate to have our house back and rename it to Allen again. But just to calm my mother down, I told her that I would try, though I wasn't sure, she's just so persistent."Mommy Cosette, when we're in Los Angeles, are we going to visit Otto?" Johiel asked me.We're on the plane now, and on the other side of our seats are the couple Iris and Franklyn. They're both asleep, so Johiel and I are talking quietly to avoid waking them up.I ran my fingers through Johiel's hair and smiled at him before answering his question."Let's rest first, Pretty boy, then tomorrow we'll visit your cousins and Aunt Geneva, okay?"He nodded and leaned on me. "Mommy, I'll sleep," he said softly, closing his eyes. I let him sleep while he leaned against my chest. I also closed my eyes as I gent

Cosette’s POV"You're telling me that you're going back to Los Angeles and you're taking Johiel with you? No!" Franklyn said, standing in front of me with a furrowed brow.I frowned at Franklyn's words. He and Iris came to my house for a visit and they're going to stay here overnight. Franklyn has a conference meeting nearby, so they decided to stay at my place instead of renting a hotel."Love, Cosette needs to go back to Los Angeles because that's where she's assigned for work," Iris said before I could speak.I glanced at her and she winked at me. Iris is six months pregnant with their first baby, and her belly is already quite large.Franklyn took a deep breath and calmed himself before speaking again, as Iris is sensitive right now and he didn't want to raise his voice in front of her."I understand that, Love, but what if Zion finds out the truth? He'll take Johiel from Cosette! We know what kind of man he is, he has no mercy," Franklyn said.Fortunately, Johiel is asleep now be

Cosette’s POV"Setta, you know that the house isn't in our name anymore, right? Your ex-husband already acquired all our properties."I rubbed my temples as I spoke to Mama on the phone. When Johiel and I got home from work, I immediately called Mama because I couldn't shake off the feeling of unease about her visit, and upon learning her purpose, I couldn't help but feel troubled."Ma, you could buy new properties in Los Angeles if you really want to go back there. You could also ask for help from Gene, or maybe you could just stay with them for a while," I suggested to her.I heard her sigh on the other end of the line. "Setta, our house holds many memories of us. I can't just let that go again," Mom said on the other line.I closed my eyes."Ma! You know that it's not ours anymore, right? I thought you had moved on and wanted to stay in Finland?" I said to her."I have moved on from the pain, Cosette, but that doesn't mean I've forgotten our life together with your father. I want o

Yohan's POV"She has panic attacks again, Zion."I stiffened, glancing at Claudia who was currently asleep in her bed. She's being checked on by her private doctor and nurses. Claudia lost control of herself earlier and almost hurt herself again, but thankfully, Aunt Lenore caught her in time and stopped her from doing anything rash. Aunt Lenore called me quickly, so I hurried over to the house where Claudia is staying."You can't just leave her alone, Zion! Don't you have any pity for her? It's been five years since she woke up from seven years in a coma, but Claudia is still suffering. She's your fiancée!"I couldn't help but bristle at what Aunt Lenore said, but I restrained myself."She was my fiancée, Aunt, not anymore. Claudia and I are no longer together; I'm just doing this out of guilt for what happened to her...because it's my fault that she's like this," I said to her.Five years ago, Claudia finally woke up from the seven-year coma. I was ecstatic at the time because she w

Cosette’s POVHerbert smiled and slightly bowed, greeting me, and I greeted him back."He's also from LA like you, so that's why I called you because I want you to assist him in his new workplace and be his tour guide for a while in the company," our Editor-in-chief, Mr. Nunes, said.I was slightly surprised and looked at Herbert again. He just smiled at me and waved slightly."Okay, Sir."Sir Nunes reminded Herbert of a few things before we left his office."Wow! I can't believe I have a fellow American colleague now, I'm happy," we both said as we left our editor-in-chief's office.Herbert smiled at me, scratching his head slightly. I could see he's shy and not much of a talker. It seems like I'll have a hard time talking to him even though we're both American. "Is that how you really are?" I asked him, raising my eyebrow.His eyes widened as if he had done something wrong to me. "H-Huh? What do you mean?" he asked, stuttering.I couldn't help but laugh. I shook my head and started

Cosette’s POVI'm outside my house right now, facing my laptop while I'm working. Our company allows us to work from home sometimes, and I'm working from home today. While I'm working here outside my house, I can't help but look at the scenery because I can see the mountain I used to hike with my Swiss friends. I haven't been able to hike recently because I'm busy with my job.I paused from my work when I heard my phone ring. I couldn't help but feel excited and eager when I saw who was calling. I quickly answered it and leaned back in my chair. Ah, my angel is calling me."Mommy Cosette!" he exclaimed from the other line as I answered his call.I chuckled softly and replied, "Yes, pretty boy? I missed you! When are you coming home?""I don't know, Mommy Cosette! But Papa Franklyn said we would visit you there on the weekend," he replied from the other line.I closed my eyes and hugged myself while talking to him on the other line. "I miss you so much, Baby. I wish you were with me,"

Yohan’s POV"Sir, Mrs. Cosette has already left, and she's on the plane heading to Switzerland."I closed my eyes and sighed deeply as my secretary delivered the news. I gestured for her to leave my office, and as I heard the door shut, I opened my eyes again, staring blankly.Because of my eagerness to fulfill my revenge plan that I had been plotting for a long time, I lost the person who made me feel complete again. I lost my wife and our angel because of my stupidity. This is the first time I have felt this pain again in my whole life. The last time I felt this pain was when my parents died. I never thought I would fall for the daughter of my enemy, the daughter of the one who betrayed my parents.I took a
