Indebted To The Billionaire CHAPTER 141
OWEN'S POV“Little angel, listen to me and stay calm. Do you know where you are?” I said into the phone and Charlotte stared at me wide-eyed.“Yes. A big hotel. There is a very loud sound and people are shouting. I'm scared, handsome uncle.” She cried and just as I was about to respond, she hung up.“Dang it! Ethan, make him talk before I get back.” I ordered as I rushed out of the warehouse, and Charlotte followed behind me, her expression full of panic and worry. I turned to her and held her shoulders.“Wifey, listen to me, you have to go home and wait for me, okay? I'll be back before you know it.” I said quickly and she shook her head as she held my arms.“No, I can't go back home! I have to come with you. That's my cousin we're talking about!” She yelled.“Listen to me! We're wasting time! Just go home okay? Please.” I pleaded but she wouldn't listen as she started to cry.“Please hubby, I'm begging you, let me come with you. I won't rest till I see they're fine.” She cried and I

CHARLOTTE'S POVIt felt like the world had regained its color and like my heart had started working again. I pulled away from Ricky as I spun around and my heart pounded wildly as I looked towards the direction that I heard his voice come from.And truly, as I looked through the haze and smoke, I saw him walking towards me; I saw Owen. His clothes were tattered, his body covered in black dust and he had a few visible bruises.But he was alive.A sob escaped from my lips and my legs finally moved on their own as I ran towards him, a wave of relief washing over me.“Oh my gosh, Owen!” He smiled at me as I threw myself at him and wrapped my arms around his neck while I buried my face against his chest.He stumbled back slightly from the impact but quickly regained his stance as he held me close and his arms tightened around me as though he’d never let go.“Owen… Oh my God, I thought… I thought you were…” My words trailed off as I let out broken sobs, and I could feel his hand slip under

OWEN'S POV“Y'all seriously gotta stop risking your lives and getting into trouble. Look at you, all tattered and covered in soot, I wonder how Charlotte still finds you attractive. Look at how she's clinging to you like a koala!” I heard Ethan say as he threw a small phone over to me and I caught it swiftly.“He's my knight in shining armor. You should have seen the way he walked out of the burning building like a hero. That is the most attractive I've seen today.” Charlotte replied as she caressed my face and I placed a soft kiss on her nose.“You're under a damn spell, Charlotte. Open your eyes.” He said with a disappointed sigh and I couldn't help but chuckle.“Should I tell Rose the same thing?” I asked as I walked in with Charlotte in my arms and he sneered as he walked in with us.“At least I don't go head first into dangerous scenarios. She loves me for me.” He replied with a sassy tone and I rolled my eyes.“When are you gonna leave? Unless you wanna watch what adults do when

CHARLOTTE'S POVI sat on the bed with my head in my hand while Owen paced around in front of me, naked. I was trying to think and be hurt but he's making it hard for me.“Put on something for heaven's sake. I'm trying to be mad but you're making it hard for me!” I snapped and he grinned sheepishly as he walked to the closet and put his boxers on.“Thank you!” I said in frustration as I got up and paced around, my mind racing wildly with the information I just heard. How could this be possible?“Okay, let's just take a chill pill, okay? How about I go back and ask Michael for more explanation on this, then we can start from there. You'll stay at home and wait for me, Is that okay?” He held my shoulders to calm me down but I was having none of it.“No, that is not okay! Why do I get to stay at home? I'm coming with you. You can't keep me in the dark on something like this!” I yelled and he slowly ran his fingers through my hair.“I'm not trying to keep you in the dark, princess. I just

OWEN'S POV“You look comfortable,” I said as I walked into the small room in the warehouse where Michael sat on a small bed.“Comfortable? This bed is half my height!” He complained and I shrugged.“You'll be fine, Michael. It's no biggie.” I muttered as I sat on the chair in front of him and crossed my legs.“You know why I'm here. Let's not beat around the bush and get straight to the point.”“Is this concerning your cousin being the owner of a loan company?” He scoffed as he leaned towards me. “You're so ignorant of so many things, Owen. I'm disappointed.” He mocked, a smug smile on his face.“Don't forget that your protection is in my hands. One single mistake from you and you'll be on the streets.” I replied, a small smirk tugging on my lips.His smile faded and he cleared his throat as he sat down properly.“That's what I thought. Now tell me, how did you find out?”“When I was in prison, I met the man who threatened me to leave Charlotte, and we had a few talks. That's when he

OWEN'S POV“What should I do now, Owen?” Ethan asked and I could hear the fear in his voice. I let out a frustrated sigh as I pulled on my hair and paced around for a while.“You know what, how about you get everyone over to my place and we'll talk about this more. Please, remember to be careful and stay safe.” I pleaded.“Thank you, Owen.” He said and he hung up. Damn it, this was not part of the entire plan.Taking them to my house would only put Charlotte in more danger and I can't let her be anywhere near Michael.This will eventually lead to Charlotte and I returning to the family house and that will be even more dangerous for her.“Hubby, what's wrong?” Charlotte called out to me from inside the car and I walked over to her side, plastering a smile on my face.“It's nothing, let's go home.” I lied and she raised a brow at me.“Are you lying to me? Seriously?” She had a disappointed look on her face and I got into the car, a frustrated sigh escaping my lips.“Ethan took Michael a

CHARLOTTE'S POVI walked around the house, and the memories I once had filled my brain, and it felt just like yesterday. I was once happy with my parents in this small tiny house, then everything changed when they died.I could see myself crying to sleep every night after being beaten up and violated. I remembered the day I took a knife and tried to drive it into my stomach but I couldn't do it because I was a coward.My fingers ran through the dented and cracked walls and I couldn't help but smile when I remembered how Owen beat those men up and flung them to the walls like they were little children.He was my miracle. One that I didn't deserve but I received it anyway. And I wasn't planning on letting him go. Never.I turned to look at the bed and I saw a scared me crouched in pain when Owen first called me his wife. The flutter I felt in my heart when he picked me like I could break if he let me go.I chuckled as I folded my arms and leaned against the wall. I remember when I ran a

OWEN'S POVMonths had passed since my parents’ death and Caleb's cruel execution. One that he deserved. I couldn't help but remember him every now and then. The happy times we shared, the bliss and excitement that we experienced together… How could it all be a lie?“Snap out of it, Mister. The brides will be here any minute.” Ethan said as he helped me straighten my bow and suit and I rubbed my hands nervously.“Tell me the truth, Ethan, do I look good enough?” I whispered and he hit my shoulder as he fixed his bow too and stood beside me.“Don't you know that you have the limelight on you? I'm in the shadows here, Sir.” He said with a chuckle and I chuckled too as the priest walked up to the altar.“Can you believe it? We're both getting married on the same day to inseparable friends. This is called what, fate?” I mumbled and he shook his head in amusement as we turned to look at the entrance.“Damn it! The rings!” I exclaimed in horror and he slapped the back of my head as he took i

CHARLOTTE'S POVI took deep breaths as I stood in front of the beautiful gates and Owen took my hand, giving it a reassuring squeeze. I lifted my head to look at me and he had a small smile on his face as he rang the doorbell twice.We waited in silence, my breath held in nervousness and after a while, someone pulled the door open. I plastered a smile on my face and when the man looked at me then at Owen, a warm smile formed on his face as he opened the gate wide open for us to come in.I was surprised at how he treated us but then, who wouldn't treat Owen right, knowing who is? We walked inside hand in hand and the man guided us inside the house and told us to wait while he called his bosses.I glanced around and the beauty of the house took my breath away. It was magnificent and luxurious. It reminded me of how I felt when I first stepped into the Walkers’ house.“Are you okay?” Owen asked as he rubbed my hands gently and I nodded.“Just a bit nervous. That's all.” I said with a ner
Indebted To The Billionaire CHAPTER 170
CHARLOTTE'S POVI wasn't just nervous, I was panicking. The anxiety threatened to swallow me whole and sweat kept running down my face, ruining my makeup for the fifth time.“Char, come on! It's not even hot yet you're sweating so much. You know what, you don't need makeup. You're already so pretty on your own. Just stop being so nervous and scared. They're your parents, not God.” Rose said as she took out another wiper and started to wipe my face clean.I knew she was right but I couldn't help the fear that clawed at my throat, threatening to end me.“You don't get it, Rose. This isn't just anybody. These people are almost on par with Owen! How am I supposed to feel knowing that my biological parents are important figures in the country and I lived my whole life running from debt? Make it make sense, Rose!” I exclaimed in frustration as I collapsed into the chair.“We should have gotten this over with a month ago but they just had to leave the country at that time. Now they're back a

OWEN'S POVThe day was finally here. The day of judgment for Caleb.Charlotte and I stood hand in hand in the crowded courtroom, the tension in the air thick enough to slice through with a knife. My grip on her hand tightened and she looked at me with a reassuring smile.I turned and my eyes met Caleb's, who stood at the defendant's table with his expression showing that he was unbothered. He looked like he was ready to face whatever came his way, like he didn't care and none of this mattered to him.For a man who had caused me so much pain, he was very calm, which disturbed me greatly.I clenched my fist as the weight of everything he had done began to press down on me so much that it almost suffocated me.My parents... Charlotte’s parents... Beatrice… those innocent lives that he took. How could he stand there without a sign of remorse?The judge finally entered, and the room went silent. Everyone stood as we waited for him to take his seat. My heart pounded harshly in my chest as I
Indebted To The Billionaire CHAPTER 168
CHARLOTTE'S POVI stared at Owen in confusion and he ran a hand through his hair as he took a seat beside me and held my hands.“I'm serious. Caleb found out first, then Ethan found out and he told me. That's what we were discussing that day. I know it's hard to believe but I have evidence and proof. You are the legitimate and missing daughter of the Davies.” Owen explained and I just stared at him like he was cracking a joke.“Don't you think this is a very expensive joke? What do you mean by I'm the daughter of the Davies? Like ‘The Davies’. Are you trying to mess with me right now?” I asked in annoyance as I got off the bed and Owen sighed as he stood up with me.“He's right, Charlotte.” Ethan butted in and I glanced at him in confusion.“Hold on…this isn't a prank. You're actually serious about this.” I clarified and my heart sank when they nodded in affirmation.“How is this possible? I grew up with my parents. All my childhood memories that I can recall were with them. They neve

OWEN'S POV“What was it?” I asked in confusion and he sat up as he leaned towards me.“A bulletproof.” He replied and my brows creased in confusion. What did he mean by that?“What do you mean bulletproof? How would that have saved my life?” I asked and he let out a chuckle.“Well, it saved mine. Without a second thought, I went to the store room and grabbed the only one that was available there. I remember when you told your father that it wasn't needed and that he shouldn't get it. It eventually came in handy.”“I was supposed to take it to you so that you could escape unscathed but I was too late. He already held you at gunpoint so I had no choice but to wear it under my clothes and act as your bulletproof. The first shot actually hit me. Right here.” He pointed at his lower abdomen and my eyes widened in realization.“That's why there was blood everywhere and it made my fake death even more believable. The rest of the bullets bounced off and didn't touch me. I had no idea that Bea
Indebted To The Billionaire CHAPTER 166
OWEN'S POVI stood there in shock and confusion as I looked around for Ethan's dead body. Could Caleb have taken his body with him? But there was no sign of a bloody body being dragged on the floor.“Papa!” I heard Charlotte cry out as she saw my parents lying in each other's cold arms and I pulled her to me to stop her from moving forward.“Stop looking. They're probably happy where they are now. They died in each other's arms, that's probably what they wanted.” I said softly as I wiped the lone tear that trailed down my cheeks.“I need to find Ethan's body. He was just here when I left…” My voice trailed off when Roselia burst into a loud cry and crouched on the floor.“Where is he? At least let me tell him goodbye! What did you do to his body?” She yelled at no one in particular and my heart clenched in pain as I walked up to her side.I crouched down and hugged her to comfort her and I relaxed a bit when she wrapped her arms around me and wept like a child.I looked up at Charlott

OWEN'S POV“Ethan!”My eyes flung open in an instant and I groaned when I felt pain in my lower abdomen. I was alive. I made it out alive. But they didn't…“Owen! You're awake.” I heard Charlotte's voice call out to me and I turned my head to see her pretty face show up beside me and she held my hand tightly.“I told you I'll be fine. I always keep my promises, princess.” I said weakly with a faint smile and she helped me sit up, worry evident on her face as my face twisted in pain.“I have to go check on them… I need to see if they're really dead… I-”“No, Owen. You'll stay here and heal. I'll go and check up on them. I haven't told Rose anything about it yet. You have to rest.” She pleaded but I shook my head strongly.“We can't hide it from her forever. We have to tell her now.” I said.“Tell me what?” I heard Roselia say as she walked in with a basket of fruits and Charlotte had a look of panic on her face.“There's something I have to tell you,” I said as I struggled to stand up
Indebted To The Billionaire CHAPTER 164
CHARLOTTE'S POVI couldn't stop the tears from falling down my face as I watched my husband get wheeled into the operating room. He had held my hand firmly even though he was unconscious before the nurses detached our hands and took him in.I pulled my hair in despair as I sat down and stared at the floor. If what Caleb said was true, then that means… Ethan and Beatrice were dead. How would I tell this to Roselia?They were supposed to get married soon-I burst into tears as the thought of everything made my heart clench in pain. Caleb had been arrested by the police but it wasn't enough. He has to die too.My phone was shattered in Caleb's house and I had no way of reaching out to anyone. I couldn't leave the hospital since I had to be by Owen's side whenever he woke up.I knew Roselia's digits by heart but could I actually bring myself to call her? What would I tell her? How would I break the news to her?Would I tell her: “Oh, hey, your husband-to-be died while trying to save my hu
