Indebted To The Billionaire CHAPTER 98
OWEN'S POV “Hold on, cupcake. I'll get you to safety.” I muttered as my voice shook and I kept glancing between the road and her. She was curled up in the passenger seat as she clutched her stomach in pain. Her face was pale and full of agony, with beads of sweat all over her forehead. My heart raced wildly as I stepped harder on the gas pedal, the tires screeching beneath us as I drove like a maniac. I didn’t care who yelled in frustration, nothing else mattered right now. Nothing mattered except getting my wife to the hospital. I had to save her and the baby. "Owen... it hurts..." She whimpered, her voice low, almost barely audible over the loud pounding of my heart. “I know, cupcake. We’re almost there. Just hold on, okay?” I whispered but panic was written all over my face. What if something was wrong with the baby? What if I lost them both? I swerved into the hospital premises and slammed the brakes so hard and the car screeched to a halt. The moment I parked, I jump

OWEN'S POV“I can't… Please don't make me choose. God, please…”“Mr Owen, I'll ask again. Who do you want us to save, your wife or the baby?”My breath caught in my throat, my world spinning around me as I desperately tried to get the question out of my head. How could anyone make a choice like that?“Doctor, I wanna know. If I choose to save the baby, won't it die without its mother?”“Naturally, yes. But we've been able to develop a new technology that's better than an incubator. She's formed already so it won't be difficult at all.”“S-she? It's a girl?” I asked as a smile formed on my face and I imagined holding my little princess in my arms.“Yes, it's a girl. You're delaying, Mr Owen. If we delay too much, we might lose both of them.”The room started to close in on me.and I could feel my heart racing as panic set in. Charlotte was everything to me. But our princess... the life we had just created... How could I just let them go?“I…” My voice cracked, barely audible like a whis

CHARLOTTE'S POVMy eyes fluttered open as the soft hum of machines beeping around me made me realize where I was. The hospital, again.My body felt heavy and my head pounding lightly as whatever they gave to me started to wear off. I blinked as my eyes slowly adjusted to the bright lights above me and I turned my head to see that I was all alone. I thought Owen would be here…I tried to sit up and that’s when I felt it, a strange emptiness inside me that I haven't felt in a while and my heart sank.The baby.My eyes widened in shock as my hand immediately moved to my stomach, the place where I had felt a little one growing inside me.But now...There was nothing. I knew it before anyone told me anything. My baby was gone.I bit my lip as I tried to stop the flood of emotions that threatened to overwhelm me. I couldn't break down. Not yet.I knew that Owen needed me to be strong. I had to hold on, for him.The door creaked open, and Owen trudged in, his shoulder slumped and my heart cl

OWEN'S POVI looked around in confusion as I stood at the edge of the riverbank, my bare feet on the damp soil. How did I get here?The sky was just getting dark, casting an eerie, dull light on the rushing waters in front of me. I glanced around as I placed my hands in my pocket and my heart stopped when I heard a scream.Charlotte was struggling in the water to my left with her arms flailing as she tried her best not to drown. I got ready to get into the water when I heard a small cry and I froze.On my right, my angel, so small and fragile, was barely above the surface, her tiny hands reaching out and calling to me.I wanted to scream for help but I was all alone. I wanted to leap in and save them both, but my legs wouldn't even move... I was frozen, unable to save my family."Help me, Owen! Please!" Charlotte's voice broke through the thoughts in my head, she sounded desperate and filled with fear.I finally turned to her as I took a step forward, but I stopped in my tracks as I h

OWEN'S POV“What is it?” I asked and she held the hem of my sleeve as she pulled me back to the bed with a weird expression on her face.“You see… there's something I found out. But I don't know how true it is… And it's about Caleb.”“What is it?” I asked again, firmly this time and she sighed as she let go of me.“Like I said, I- I don't know how true it is-”“Charlotte, if you aren't going to tell me what it is, then I'll call him.” I moved away from her as I pressed the dial button.“No!” She yelled as she came up to me and quickly hung up as she grabbed the phone from me.“You're acting weird right now. What is going on?” I held her face gently as she shifted from one foot to the other.“There's something I have to tell you but… I can't.” Her shoulders slumped as she looked up at me, concern written all over her face.“Why?”“Because I don't want you to get hurt. I don't want to see you cry again.”She wore a frown on her face as she dropped the phone on the bed and held my hands

CHARLOTTE'S POVI glanced back and forth at the two men sitting in front of me with my arms crossed as I waited for an explanation.“I'm waiting for an answer from any of you. What secrets are you talking about?” I asked again as I turned to Owen and he quickly avoided my eyes.“Owen!”“I don't know the secrets! He only told me that there were secrets, but he didn't tell me what the secrets were.” He finally confessed as he scooted over to my side and held my hands.“I didn't think of it too much that time and that's why I didn't tell you. I'm sorry…” He said with a small pout and I sighed.“Stop trying to be adorable. It won't work.” I huffed as I pulled my hands away but he took them back in his hands.“He's right, Charlotte. He knows nothing about it.” Ethan said and I glared at him as I pointed my finger at him.“You also kept it away from me. Don't expect that I'll smile at you just because you're Rose's boyfriend.”He quickly raised his hands in surrender as he chuckled and Owen

CHARLOTTE'S POVI panicked as I paced around in front of the ward. The doctor still wasn't out and it's been over an hour now. I rubbed my hands together, worry and anxiety taking over me.“Relax, Charlotte. He'll be fine.” Ethan reassured me as he placed a hand on my shoulder but I couldn't even try to relax.“You don't understand, Ethan. I can't count how many times we've been here. Why are they after us like this? What have we done?” I sobbed and Ethan let out a sigh as he pulled me gently in a comforting hug.“Caleb is here already. You have to be strong. And don't let him know that we know anything.” He said as he gently patted my back and I sighed.“He doesn't know about you, right?” I asked and he nodded.“Yeah, he doesn't. Let's keep it that way for now-”“Where's my son? Owen!” A shrill voice interrupted us as Mrs Walker rushed to our side.“You! You witch! What have you done to my son?” She yelled as I and Ethan broke apart and I turned around to see Catherine and Caleb come

CHARLOTTE'S POVI trudged over to his side as I knelt by the bed side and sobbed quietly. I wished I hadn't spoken at all. I wished I could turn back the hands of time.“Owen… please wake up. I need you. I can't-” my voice broke and I sniffed as I took his hands in mine.“I can't do this alone. Without you, I'm at risk. You know I'm still recovering, right? Who will take care of me if you don't wake up?” I asked softly as I gently rubbed his hands in mine.“These IV drips must hurt, right? Look at what they did to your beautiful hand… You have to wake up, okay? Then we'll sue them for damages.” I chuckled softly but when he still didn't move, I started to cry again.“Please, you have to wake up! I feel so alone right now…” I whispered as I placed my head on the bed and sobbed. This was not what I wanted at all.My tummy started to hurt and I shut my eyes while I prayed for the pain to go away. I can't afford to break down right now.I didn't know when I slept off, but when the door wa

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
Indebted To The Billionaire CHAPTER 167
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
Indebted To The Billionaire CHAPTER 165
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
