Indebted To The Billionaire CHAPTER 71
CHARLOTTE’S POVI sat in Rose’s living room, nervously tapping my fingers on the arm of the couch. I haven't heard from Owen in a while and I couldn’t help the growing anxiety eating away at me. Every minute that passed made me more restless.Rose sensed my tension and handed me a cup of tea as she sat beside me, a worried look on her face. "You’re worried about him, aren’t you?" She asked and I nodded as I bit my lip. "I don’t know what’s happening over there. Everything’s been falling apart, and now… I just don’t know if he’s okay. I don't know why all of this keeps happening to him. He deserves better.” I said sadly and she placed a comforting hand on my shoulder. "Owen’s strong, Charlotte. I'm sure he’ll get through this. And I know it’s hard to sit and wait when you feel so helpless.” She replied and I sighed as I stared into the steaming cup in my hands. "He’s always trying to protect me, and now, with all the problems at the office... I don’t even know how he’s holding up.

OWEN’S POVI sat at my desk, staring at my phone. My thumb hovered over Ethan’s number, the anger bubbling inside me. I needed to call him in and end this. Without a second thought, I dialed his phone. The phone rang twice before Ethan picked up."Hey, Boss. You need something?" he asked, his tone casual, definitely unaware of what was coming."Come to my office. Now." I said coldly, not bothering to hide my frustration. There was silence on the other end for a second before Ethan replied. “I'm outside but I'll be there in a few minutes.”I hung up without another word. I was frustrated and devastated. The fact that I hated myself for trusting him so much hurt me even more. I desperately wanted it to not be true so I went over it all again but it was the same thing. It all pointed to him.About ten minutes later, the door to my office opened, and Ethan walked in, a friendly smile on his face as always. But I wasn’t in the mood for pleasantries.“You wanted to see me?” he asked, loo

CHARLOTTE'S POVI paced around as I stared at the man in front of me. How could it be him? He was the anonymous mysterious stranger that knew everything? “This makes no sense. How was it you behind everything? Why?” I questioned and he let out a sigh as he ran a hand through his hair. “There are a lot of things going on that you don't know, Charlotte. Owen is also in the dark on so many things. I have to do this to show him something.” He replied and it only made me more confused. “Why not just tell him straight up? Why go around in corners and confuse him?” I asked and he just shrugged, a small smile on his face. “It's fun. And the fun is only just beginning.”“You seem to be the only one enjoying this. Owen is going through a lot right now!” I retorted as I placed my hands on my waist and he let out a chuckle. There's nothing funny about this! “I know, I know. But it's not my fault. I'm doing all this to help him. You as well. You won't understand now, Charlotte, but when it fi
Indebted To The Billionaire CHAPTER 74
OWEN'S POVI stood outside Roselia's house as I waited for Charlotte to come out. I just wanted to bury myself in her arms and take comfort there.The door swung open and she rushed outside, a smile on her face and I knew that she missed me just as much as I did.When she spotted me, she ran to me as she jumped on me, hugging me tightly and I held her tightly as well. Oh I missed her so much. I was away from her for hours and I felt her absence like a stab in my heart.We stood there like that for a while and it felt like we were having a silent conversation. It was beautiful how we both needed each other. It warmed my heart.After a while, she pulled away, a smile on her face as she placed a hand on my cheek and I leaned into her touch.“I was so worried. You didn't call or text, your line wasn't going through and I got scared. Are you okay?” She asked as she gently rubbed my face and I nodded as I looked at her lovingly.“I'm sorry, cupcake. I was too focused on work. A lot happened
Indebted To The Billionaire CHAPTER 75
CHARLOTTE'S POVI laid comfortably in Owen's arms as the warmth of Owen’s skin beneath my cheek felt ticklish. The steady rhythm of his heartbeat calmed the storm raging in mine and I felt at ease. We had just shared a passionate moment, and now everything felt peaceful and quiet. It felt almost as if nothing else mattered. But I knew better. I knew him too well. I could sense the tension in his muscles and the heavy weight of unspoken words resting on him like a burden. I lifted my head slightly as I gazed at him, my eyes tracing the perfection of his face and I noticed the faint creases that had formed between his brows. Owen was thinking. And he was thinking hard. About his office, his business and of course, Ethan. “Owen… Can we talk about what happened at the office?” I asked softly, my fingers tracing small circles on his chest and I felt him stiffen underneath me, his body tensing up immediately at my words as if I had just struck a nerve. He didn't say anything at first
Indebted To The Billionaire CHAPTER 76
OWEN'S POVI was still angry and I ran a hand through my hair as I tried to calm myself down. The tension in the air felt heavy, suffocating even. Charlotte hadn’t said a word since I yelled at her, and now, guilt was beginning to draw at me.I shouldn’t have snapped at her. She didn’t deserve any of that. But it was hard to push down the anger, the betrayal. Ethan had been with me through everything, she was right about that. He's been by my side for years, but now everything pointed back to him. The papers, the shares sold off without my knowledge. All of it. The anger threatened to again, but I swallowed it, not wanting to lash out at Charlotte any more than I already had.A buzz in my phone had my heart skipping a bit. This anonymous source made me tense for no reason. I looked at Charlotte, who was still standing in front of me, quiet and tense. Her arms were wrapped around herself, and her head was turned away from me. I couldn’t bear to see her like this, upset because of me
Indebted To The Billionaire CHAPTER 77
CHARLOTTE'S POVI had to help Owen. But how? He was in a state of frustration and devastation and I didn't know how to help him. I felt useless as a wife. I could feel the tension radiating off him even though he tried to mask it with his usual calm demeanor but it wasn’t working. I saw through it. My heart broke a little more each time I saw him stressed over the business, but I had no idea how to help him. I felt powerless.I had woken up earlier and I felt the space where he was supposed to be to be empty. I sat up and saw him across the room, sitting at the couch with papers scattered around, his brows furrowed in frustration. I wanted to do something. Anything. But I didn’t even know where to start. I wasn’t a businesswoman. I wasn’t even sure how these things worked, how shares and stocks and corporate betrayal played out in the real world. I felt like I was on the outside, looking into a world I couldn’t understand. Yet, Owen was drowning in it. I got out of bed and walked
Indebted To The Billionaire CHAPTER 78
OWEN'S POVThe ding of my phone woke me up and I sat up immediately. Another message from the anonymous sender. My heart started beating fast as I opened it, feeling a strange mix of curiosity and dread. The message read: "Don't forget our meeting. Wait in a hidden corner. Don’t be seen."I wasted no time as I gently got out of bed and threw some clothes on, slipping out of the house without alerting Charlotte. She had been through enough already, and I didn’t want her to worry more. The early morning air bit at my skin as I got into my car, but the chill couldn’t compare to the tension crawling through my veins.The ride to the cafe wasn’t too far, but every second stretched out like an eternity. When I arrived, I parked a little away from the entrance, just in case someone was watching. I couldn’t afford to be reckless.I entered the cafe quietly and I scanned the area as I walked. It looked normal just like any other day. A few customers sat here and there as it was still early,
