My Forced Husband Is A Billionaire Chapter 79
Ava's POVI blinked twice, shaking my head as if it would wake me up from the nightmare I was currently living in. I couldn't bring myself to accept or believe that Mom was accusing me of having a hand in Liam's kidnapping."Mom, what are you saying? How could you say—""I am not your mom," she cut me off. "Don't ever think about calling me Mom."I gasped, tears filling my eyes. "Mom, did I do something?""Are you daft?" she raised her voice this time, the sound echoing off the walls of the room. "Yes, you did something, Ava. You did something."The door to the room opened then, and Dad and Carlos peeked their heads in, their eyes wide open, filled with concern."Is everything okay?"Mom ignored Dad, turning back to face me. "You did something. You killed my son, and you think that you can just call me Mom and pretend like everything is okay?"Gasps echoed around the room—Dad's, Carlos's, and mine. I still couldn't bring myself to believe what was going on."Mom, please, you need to u

Ava's POV"Yes, Mrs. Blackwell."The lawyer smiled, as though he wasn't sensing the tension in the room. "Mr. Blackwell asked me to make sure you took over his company. He said you deserved it for all the hard work you've put in during the short while you've been there. And also, of course, his dad is old but will still be helping you learn the ropes of things.""Meanwhile, his heir will take over when he or she is of age," the lawyer said, gesturing to my stomach.But my mind still wasn't at rest. Dom's reaction had been very unusual. And I think everyone knew it, too, because Mom and Dad exchanged glances before Dad cleared his throat."Domenico, son, is everything okay?"He just kept glaring at me until, after a few seconds, he huffed and stomped out of the living room, his footsteps echoing loudly on the floor. A few minutes later, the screeching of tires sounded outside as his car roared to life and sped out of the gates of the compound.The tension in the air was so thick it cou

Ava's POVI blinked twice, staring at her with my mouth dropping to the floor.What?Mom ran a hand through her hair, her eyes filling with tears."I'm sorry, Ava. I really am, okay? I never meant to do any of this. The thing is, I'm so sorry. I just... I have no excuse for treating you the way I did. Liam would be so disappointed in me right now. So disappointed. Please forgive me, my darling."She walked closer to me, but I stepped backward, shaking my head."You're not serious, right? You think you can just waltz in here, tell me sorry, and then I'll just forgive you? For goodness' sake, you accused me of killing my husband, the man I love, the man whose baby is in me. Mom, do you think that is something that can easily be forgiven?"She shook her head."No, Ava. I know it cannot be easily forgiven. And I am not expecting you to forgive me easily. I am not. But at this point, I just want you to know something—that I look at myself like the worst mother in the world. I know you had

Ava's P.O.V.Dad's memorial was nothing like I'd expected. I thought it would be a family affair, with just us family members and a few close friends present. But as I alighted from Carlos' vehicle, my eyes met a sea of people, dressed in black, walking in and out of the mansion.Annoyance seeped through my veins immediately. None of these people had been there when Dad was paralyzed and dying. Neither did they show up when he died. But here they are today, all because the final declaration of his will is to be read.I know many are here for the drama. My rocky relationship with Mom and Natalia is definitely not a secret.Well, too bad for them. I don't plan on giving them any drama. I came here today to get some of my important stuff from Dad's room, and I'm out."Are you sure you don't want me to tag along, Ava? You know you're not supposed to be stressed out now," Carlos asked from the driver's seat, staring at me through the window.I had rounded the car already, about to go in. I

Ava's POV"Jim?""Hey, Ava."Natalia's husband smiled, leaning against the doorframe while watching me—the same way his wife had been. Only this time, his smile was more genuine than hers.I scrambled to get up from the bed, clutching the photo album I held against my chest as if he had tried to take it from me. This caused his eyes to glow with humor."How have you been, Ava? When you came in, I didn’t have time to really greet and welcome you.""I'm fine, Jim. Thank you for asking," I said. Goosebumps rose on my skin from the way his eyes were softly raking over my body. Maybe he didn’t know, but I noticed."I think it's time I leave now, Jim.""Oh, sure, let me walk you out then. But so soon? You haven't even spent time with us, Ava. You know this isn't how family is supposed to be. This rocky relationship isn't helping."I didn’t respond. He mentioned a rocky relationship, so what was he implying? That I should go chit-chatting and dining with my enemies just because they were fam

Ava's POVGasps echoed around the massive living room after the declaration had been made. I swiveled around, my eyes landing on the most powerful figure I had ever seen—Liam's grandfather.No. Not Liam's dad's parents.No. This man walking in with a black suit and hat, holding a walking stick more expensive than the dress I was wearing, was the Mr. Blackwell. The powerful father of Elena Blackwell. The man whose name made grown men shit their pants.He was the one who had spoiled my husband so much and made him become the great CEO he currently was. And he was currently walking into the Patel mansion, commanding attention like he owned the place. No. This place was definitely beneath him.My mother—Charlotte Patel's businesswoman side—took over, and she rushed forward, her eyes darting nervously, her mind probably wondering what was going on that had brought this man here.It seemed like everyone had forgotten what he had said a few seconds ago.

Ava's POVWe sat in one of Mr. Blackwell’s lush, elegant vehicles. Three cars were ahead of us, and four more trailed behind. This kind of power never went without heavy security. Unfortunately, that was one of the downsides.However, the last thing on my mind was his cars—I had more important things to worry about.For instance, how he had managed to get those pictures of Natalia. Had they been photoshopped?I had known my sister for a while, and even though I had been away at school for half of our lives, one thing I was sure of was that she wouldn’t become promiscuous.No, she would rather date one man at a time, and if things didn’t work out, she would move on to another.So what exactly had pushed her into that—if it was true? Something must have caused it."And what has my angel's mind far away?" Grandpa Blackwell’s voice called out, pulling me from my thoughts."Oh, I’m sorry, I was just—""You don’t have to apologize. Thinking is pretty normal. I just don’t want you to dwell o

Chapter OneAva’s POVI looked up at the Patel mansion, wondering if coming back here was worth it or just the biggest mistake of my life. I guess I’d have to find out. I hope I don't regret it.But who was I kidding? Nothing good had ever come out of this house. Never had, never will.The Patel mansion looked as magnificent as ever, towering over the other luxurious homes in one of the richest neighborhoods in the city of Pinecrest.A gravel driveway that seemed to go on forever led up to the water fountain where cars were parked around. The tall marble pillars lining the entrance to my home, decorated by various flowers. This house was easily the most beautiful in this part of the city.The last time I saw this house, I was barely eight years old and being sent away, exiled to a boarding school with nothing more than a silly explanation and a hurried goodbye. Now, after so long, I was back. And the truth was, I still wasn’t ready to face them just yet.As I made my way to the gate,

Ava's POVNo.No.No effing way.I refuse to believe it. When I heard what the police officers had said, I let out a loud gasp, which betrayed my location as all eyes turned to me. But by the time they could move towards me, I bolted, running as fast as my legs could carry me away from them.The men's footsteps were pounding against the tiles behind me, too much noise for a hospital, but at the moment, it didn't matter."Ava, wait. Please wait!"Multiple voices were shouting at once that I couldn't make out who was talking. It didn't matter; I just needed to get away. Where to? I had no idea, but I kept running.I stood no chance, though, not only because I got tired but because there's only so much distance a heavily pregnant woman could cover. Domenico met me first, pulling me by the elbow to face him.I jumped into his arms, soaking his shirt with my tears. "Don't cry, baby. Don't cry. Everything will be okay."I sank to the concrete ground, shivering from the cold that was seeping

Ava's POVHis eyes lingered on my trembling figure, staying for a while on my stomach before he sighed. "There's no time to waste. Let's get going."The men reluctantly got in while eyeing my direction, and the cars roared to life.They drove off in the opposite direction from how they came while I fell to the ground, unable to stop my tears even as the driver tried to get me to calm down.About a minute later, the cops arrived and rushed towards us since the driver had turned on the lights.Domenico was the first to reach my side, lifting me up and cradling me against his chest. Why were they here now? It was all useless. My husband had been taken. I was numb. Their presence now was unnecessary.I was placed in an ambulance, but even as the red and blue lights shone so bright, I couldn't feel a thing."Some cop cars have gone after them. But what exactly happened?" I heard a voice ask. Dad? Or Carlos? I didn't know, and I didn't care. I was numb at the moment, unable to believe that
