LOVE AND LIES: THE BILLIONAIRE'S WIFE'S RETURN CHAPTER 54
GAIA“Tell me what you want me to do for you.”“My father was killed. Murdered in cold blood like an animal that didn’t matter. I need justice for him.”My mouth hung open for a couple of seconds because I was trying to think about what to say. I mean, this man knew who I was right?“Mr Miller, I sympathize with you for your loss but I have to tell you that I am a corporate lawyer and I’m sure you must have known that before you reached out to me so I don't think I can help you with this. Perhaps I can refer you to someone else.”He laughed.“I knew that, Miss Everly. I wanted the best to handle my father’s case, and I knew that only you could do that so I reached out to you. I’ll pay you any amount you want. All I need is for you to find my father’s murderer.”For the first time, I didn’t know what to say. As I stared at him, wondering whether he could hear what I was saying at all, the waiter came with the food. I’d lost my appetite though.“As I was saying, tell me if you can help
LOVE AND LIES: THE BILLIONAIRE'S WIFE'S RETURN CHAPTER 1
GAIAMy eyes slowly opened but the blinding lights shut them back again as if they were a cause and effect and I tried to make sense of everything around meI could not move, I could not ask for water to ease my dry throat, I could not tell the doctor that my head was splitting or that he should do everything in his power to save my baby, but the pain in my belly was still there. All I could do was lay there while I was being wheeled in. I felt life slipping away from me, the blood in my veins rushing back and forth from my heart. I was not sure what happened. One moment, I was holding a cup of my herbal tea, and the next, I was clutching my stomach sure to the piercing pain that was shooting through it. The air was knocked out of my lungs, so I couldn't call for help. I assumed it was labor pains because this was my first child. I was thrilled to have another family member after five years of marriage to my husband. Who wouldn't? Ever since witnessing the love between my parents

GAIA“Madam please, you need to rest.”I grabbed the IV in my hand and was about to pull it out when the door opened. It was the doctor. “Please, Mrs Quieten, you need to relax.”My breathing was heavy now as I was trying to keep down the tears that were peeking in my eyes. “Doctor. Doctor, please tell me these men are lying. They're saying that something happened to my baby and I don't understand it. Why? What happened? I don't do drugs!"“But the drugs were found in your system. You were so high that even your baby was so high. She didn't have the immune system or the strength to handle that. It's enough to kill her. I just wanted to inform you that the police will be coming by soon for questions.”The police? So now I was a murderer? “Doctor, that won't be necessary.. walk with me please." Evan took the doctor and walked outside, leaving me there to soak in everything that I'd just heard. My baby was dead. Drugs were found in my system. The police were coming by for question

GAIAAs soon as the car pulled into the house, I felt my hands and my feet grow cold and they shook as I stormed into his office. He was bent over some papers, his glasses resting lightly on his nose and he looked up at me with a frown on his face when I entered. “What madness is this?” Was the first thing he asked. Without answering, I flung the envelope on the table. “There. Sign those. If you hate me so much, just sign them and let me freaking go! Let me go!" He looked away from me and opened the envelope, bringing out the papers and looking at them. He laughed, pushing them to the side and taking off his glasses. “What is this supposed to be? You want to divorce me?”“Are you blind? Aren't they divorce papers? Sign them and let me go! You didn't have to go so far, Javon. You didn't have to kill my baby!”“What in the world are you talking about?"Now, he was acting like he didn't know what I was talking about. “I heard her on the phone. The person you paid to drug me so I'

GAIA 5 years later We landed at the airport early that morning. I'd slept through the entire flight because I'd been working on a murder case all month and it had drained me completely. I was finally back in New York after all this time. It had taken me almost a year to get my life back on track after what happened. Bella had helped me get a job in her company and I'd worked there, trying to save money to study. After that, I left the city, hoping to make something of myself. It hadn't been easy, moving away to a country where I knew no one. Bella has been there for me at every step of the way. It hadn't been easy studying with a newborn baby but I'd done it and I'd succeeded. My baby boy was born very healthy and I was so happy to see him. It had been a home birth because I didn't want to risk having to find out about it. It was hard for me to leave, knowing that Ayrah was here but I asked Bella to help take care of her grave. She deserved the best. She called me the day Javo

“Evan, who did you say this man was and what exactly did he want?” “Well, he wants a top lawyer to handle his company's legal affairs and also be his lawyer. Other details will be discussed in the meeting.”Didn't he have a lawyer for all that before? Why did he want me? Anyway, I'd turned down at least five job offers just yesterday. My price has risen. I'd only accepted this when I heard how much he was offering. These days, money is needed. I'd spend a lot trying to get this degree and become who I am. That should be enough compensation. I needed to give my son the best live possible and make sure that never suffered a bit. We stopped in front of the company and I looked out, not being able to see the top of the tall building from the car. “This is it? Who exactly are we seeing?” That question was answered by the name of the company that I saw. Quieten and Co. “Is this a joke, Evan? You brought me to him?"My breathing was rapid now. “No, it's not him. It's someone else.

GAIA“So you said you had a meeting again today?” I nodded, stuffing pancakes into my mouth. I'd left the house very early this morning so I could drive over to the neighboring town to meet with some potential clients. Despite my new job at Quieten and Co, I was still a free lawyer, meaning that I'd told Mr Quinten that I was still going to handle other cases. He was fine with it or even if he wasn't, it didn't bother me. “Yes, and I have to be at the office by midday.”I glanced at my phone as the screen lit up. There was an hour left until then.“But taking a job offer with his brother? Don't you think that's too risky?”“I told you he's his stepbrother. It's not like they like each other anyways."Bella sighed and sat in front of me. “I don't care if it's the devil. They have ties with each other. You may just be the fool in this whole thing."Ouch. That hurt. But she was right. When I got home that day, I'd thought about it and it crossed my mind that maybe I should have thou

JAVONFIVE YEARS AGO. “When will the plane arrive?”I'd been standing here for almost an hour and the sun was taking a very hard hit on me. Evan removed the phone from his ear and turned to me.“That was the pilot. He's going to be here very soon." He better be. I couldn't wait to be home. For almost ten months, I'd left the house to take care of some business in China. It was unavoidable and I had to leave without saying anything to Giai. We hadn't been in touch at that time because we didn't talk normally, even when I was at home, and me being halfway across the world wasn't going to make me start. The pilot finally came around and we boarded. As the plane took off, I fought the sleep that had been attacking me since I left the hotel. “How’s she doing?”Evan looked up from his laptop. “Who, Alpha?"“My wife. How is she doing?”“She’s doing okay so far. She has Bella by her side."She's only ever had Bella. “What about her parents? Has she gone to see them?”He sighed and clo
