My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 031 Threat
~Gerald~I sat up on the bed abruptly. The sleep cleared off my eyes. I was wearing only black shorts. The air conditioner had been on full blast while I was sleeping, but now, I was sweating. How in the world did Max get that special number?Yes, I was X-crow. Although Elvis handled my email account and he was the one who responded to Max’s outrageous request the other day, my special number was one that I reserved to communicate with a selected few. When not in use, I left it in Elvis’s care for safety reasons. How come Max got it? And what did he mean by he knows everything about me? Like everything everything?I threw on a shirt and went into the bathroom. There, I turned on the tap and left it to run. It wasn’t guaranteed that I would be able to keep my voice down enough. I didn’t want Rosemary to hear me.“Is that the only text he sent? And when exactly was this?” I asked Elvis, sitting on the edge of the tub.I heard a few clicks from his end, and then he said, “It came about
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 032 Domineering Crackdown
~Gerald~This new threat set off something inside me. My grip on the phone tightened as I read the text over and over.Son of a bitch! He would reveal my identity if I didn’t do his bidding? How dare he!I thumped my fist on the desk hard. No one, not even my longest-standing rivals, had ever dared to say such words to me. Yet, Max Smith, that swine… that…My body vibrated as fury coursed through my veins. I must show that idiot that he has bitten more than he can chew. Whether he knows everything or not, he’s not getting away with this!I dialed Elvis. Once he answered, I ordered, “Gather the spies. Now!”I hung up the phone and stood up from my desk. On the way out of the Software Engineering department, Mr. Hanks popped out of nowhere. “And where do you think you are going?”I spared him a glance. “There has been an emergency, sir. I have to leave now.”Mr. Hanks stood in my way. I tried to walk past him, but he stretched out his legs with his arms akimbo. “It’s not even noon yet a
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 033 Sick Wife
~Gerald~I leaned back in the chair, keeping the phone on the desk in front of me. The next second, I heard a thump and then Elvis growled, “Speak! Tell my boss what you just told us!”“I…I really don’t know anything. Please spare me!”The voice was Max’s, but I found it surprising that the man who was usually snarky and arrogant now sounded like a squeaky rat whose life was flashing before his eyes. I smiled a little. How the mighty has fallen…“Didn’t you say you would reveal everything about me to the world? How come you are saying you know nothing now? Do you take me for a fool?” I roared.“No, no, no!” Max cried. “I was only fibbing. I thought threatening to expose your identity would make you change your mind about working with me. I really don’t know anything aside from that you are American, and I don’t even have proof for that. It’s not true, is it?”I heard a slap and then another cry. “I’m sorry. Sorry. Please don’t kill me.”Elvis shouted, “Shut the fuck up!”In an instant
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 034 Black Card
~Gerald~I stifled a laugh, looking at Max as he came closer. Earlier, when Elvis told me he had gotten Max to talk, I didn’t know they had beaten him to this extent. Aside from the bruises on his face and arm, I saw that one of his eyes was swollen shut. He looked like he had been run over by a train and then stung by a bee.Amani was wearing the disgusted frown she always wore whenever she saw me. “And what are you doing here?”I raised a brow. “Who are you again?”Amani eyed me and then turned to Max who said, “You loser, were you just about to enter this office? Are you on drugs or something? This isn’t a place for you to be!”“Oh, really?” I stopped with my hand on the doorknob. “If you ask me, I have just as much right as you do to be in this hospital.”Max laughed. “Do you have any idea how much treatment costs in here? This hospital is only for the top 1% in this city!”I smirked, shaking my head. Could this man be any more delusional and annoying? Anyway…“I haven’t got time
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 035 Her Husband’s Keeper
~Rosemary~All four heads turned in my direction as I dragged my feet while holding the wall for support. Max and Amani frowned when they saw me. On the other hand, Gerald rushed over to me. “Hey, what are you doing out here? I told you to stay in bed.”I gripped his arm and leaned on him, feeling breathless. “You were taking so long. I had to come check what was wrong.”Gerald took a deep breath. He slung my arm over his shoulders and held my waist gently. “Let’s get you back to bed.”“Security! Don’t let him get away! He has a patient’s card in his possession!” Max shouted just as we were about to leave.I stopped and looked at him, noticing for the first time how wounded he was. What in the world happened to him? Was he in an accident? Was he okay? He must be in so much pain…As pity began to creep into my heart, Amani walked up to us and snarled, “How does it feel knowing that you married a thief, Rosemary?”I looked away from Max. Staring at my sister, I stuttered, “W-what did you
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 036 Big Surprise
~Rosemary~I opened my eyes slowly. My vision was a little blurry, so I rubbed my eyes and opened them again. Only then did I see a small but beautiful one-story building in front of me. I turned to Gerald. “Where’s the surprise?”Gerald opened his arms wide. “This is it, Rosemary. This is our new house!”“Our new house?” I uttered, hella confused. I looked around, only to realize that this neighborhood was familiar. Wait, are my eyes playing tricks on me? Wasn’t this the estate where Max’s house is located? “What’s going on, Gerald? Why did you bring me here?”Gerald’s smile faded a little. He gestured to the house again. “I just bought this house. It’s ours now.”“You are kidding!” I still couldn’t believe my ears. I looked between him and the house. “You bought this? How is that even possible?”The brightness of Gerald’s smile returned and I could have sworn that I saw him blushing with pride as he explained, “Earlier this week, I put my photography catalog up for sale and got a g
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 037 Business War Kickoff
~Gerald~My lips were about to collide into hers when the ringtone suddenly interrupted the moment. I groaned and tried to hold on to her, but Rosemary pulled away and walked over to her bag which she had dumped on the shelf by the doorway. I rubbed my nose, trying to suppress the heat that was about to consume me. While at it, I heard Rosemary say her best friend’s name on the phone.“What a spoilsport! Why did she have to call now?” I muttered under my breath, but then felt guilty. I shouldn’t be mad at Sabrina. After all, how could she have known that Rosemary and I were having a moment?I raked my hair and walked up the stairs. After putting a safe space between Rosemary and I, the heat inside me slowly subsided. I stood on the upstairs balcony and watched Rosemary intently. She had one hand on her waist as she did slow half-spins like a little girl.My smile returned when she mentioned my name and praised me. Holding the railing, I said silently, “This is just the beginning, Rose
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 038 Pornography
~Gerald~The video! I can’t let her see the video of Max acting like a lunatic. At that thought, I snatched the tablet off her hands just as she was about to look at the screen.I hid the tablet behind me. Then smiled, trying to reveal nothing on my face. “I wasn’t up to anything. Why…why are you here?”Rosemary yawned for a moment, but her suspicious expression returned thereafter. “I have never seen you so jumpy. Are you hiding something from me?”She stretched out a hand to my side. Quickly, I shifted back. “No, I am not.”“Are you sure?” She folded her arms and gave me a side look. “But why can I feel it in my guts that you are hiding something and that something is in that tablet?”“What is it?” she pressed.I moved back again, pressing the power button of the tablet. I felt it vibrate and then turn off. Still, I wasn’t so relieved because Rosemary was staring right at me. I kept a straight face and argued calmly, “You have to believe me. I am not hiding anything.”I wished she w

~Gerald~I slammed the door in his face. Before turning away, I listened as he stormed off, huffing and puffing about how I was making a huge mistake.“Before you say anything…” I began, looking at Elvis. “Get on the phone with the Russian mafia. I’m sure they would be pleased to know that Angel showed up here.”“No!”“What?” I exclaimed on the way to grab a glass of water.Elvis shook his head. “I don't think it’s a good idea to get involved in the battle between Angel and them. Time and time again, this has always ended with a bloodbath. It was hard enough for you to stay alive all these years despite having many enemies. I can't watch you get involved in a mafia war just because you want to take Angel down.”I sighed. “What do you suggest I do then?”“I suggest we wait. We wait for them to locate Angel and take him out. Since he's roaming without a care in the world, that should be pretty easy.”I shook my head with uncertainty. As far as I knew, Angel was much more powerful than m
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 163 Worthy Contender
~Rosemary~“Boss, are you okay? Boss!” Elvis ran to me as soon as the phone dropped from my hand. He made me sit on the sofa and peered down at my face.His tone changed. “Gerald, are you okay? Should I call the doctor?”I shook my head, clutching my chest. It was as if I was going to have a heart attack. But I knew going to the hospital won't help me.“Was that Rosemary on the phone? What did she say? Why are you like this?”I looked at him. “I don't know what to do, man. She’s getting married to Max again.”“What! How…but your divorce hasn't being finalized. You didn't sign the divorce papers, did you?”“I didn't. But now that she doesn't remember me or the love we shared, I’m afraid Max would make her drag me to court for the divorce. He's manipulating her big time.”I went on to tell him about the wedding photo Rosemary found and how she accused me of faking it and planting it in Max’s house.“This is getting out of hand. Should I tell the boys to take him out?”I groaned. “No. T
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 162 World-class Manipulator
~Rosemary~“H-how is this… how did this…”I couldn't believe my eyes at all. I stared at the woman standing beside Max. She was wearing a very beautiful wedding dress. Most importantly, she wasn't me!She looked like me, but she wasn't me. She was Amani. I was sure of it!“So it’s true? What that man said is true! Max divorced me so he could be with Amani?”The photo slipped off my hands. Taking a step back, I stared down at it. “They even had a wedding. But why did Max propose to me two days ago? And Amani was so happy for me!”What the fuck is going on? Who's playing me for a freaking fool!All of a sudden, the door opened. I turned and saw Max. His eyes widened at the sight of me. He looked at my feet, and his eyes widened even more.“Care to explain?” I asked, folding my arms.I was trying so hard to keep it together. Heaven knows I wanted to jump at him and scratch his face. Another part of me also wanted to just break down crying. This moment reminded me of the heartbreak I su
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 161 Wedding Photo
~Rosemary~Call me insecure, but something didn't sit right about this meeting. First, because Amani showed up here at night. And second because for as long as I could remember, Amani had a thing for Max.She even snatched him from me when we were in high school. It was a miracle that we got married. Was she trying to snatch him yet again?But seeing this beautiful ring now, I realized what a fool I had been. Why did I think that the puppy dating they had in school still meant anything to Max after all the love I showed him since Amani left for college?“Yes!” I screamed, putting out my hand. “I will marry you, Max Smith!”“Really?” Max asked, his eyes lighting up.I nodded vigorously. After he slipped the ring on my finger, I raised my hand and looked at it. The rock was much bigger than the one he gave me when we first married. By the looks of it, it was probably worth millions.“You shouldn't have!” I said, tearing up.Max pulled me into a hug. “You deserve the very best, my love.
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 160 Blindsided Again
~Max~The cold was biting hard. Standing on the lawn, I listened to Amani as she went on and on about her grievances.Just two weeks ago, she had asked for a divorce. I knew it was because of my current financial woes. It hurt a lot that she wanted to leave me. But I begged.I begged her like I had never begged anyone before. She was my life!“I will stay on one condition. Get me everything that Rosemary has,” she had said.At the time, I thought that would be impossible considering the fact that Rosemary hated my guts. But after I received that call ordering me to come to the hospital because my “wife” was admitted there, I thought maybe…maybe it wasn't impossible after all.Although I suspected that Amani had a hand in Rosemary’s accident, I didn't dare to ask her that or even tell Rosemary the truth. I was going to do anything to make Amani stay with me.She agreed to leave the house for a while so I could make Rosemary comfortable with me. The plan was to make her transfer all he
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 159 Midnight Visitor
~Rosemary~My eyes zoomed in on Max’s puckered lips. It was as if I was having a nightmare in a horror film.“No!” I said, turning the other way.Max sniffed. “My love, what’s wrong?”Yeah, what’s wrong with me? I thought I loved him? Or did that man get into my head?“There’s no rush, okay?”I turned to see him smiling awkwardly. I sighed. “I’m sorry, Max. I just…”“I understand perfectly. You don't have to explain yourself. You have just been through something so traumatic. I shouldn't have made such a move.”Aw… He’s so understanding. Seeing his face, I felt even guiltier for thinking about that guy. Why can't I get him off my mind? This isn't fair!“But… I just want you to know that I love you, Rosemary. Although we have had our ups and downs and people have tried to break us apart, we are soulmates.”I nodded, remembering what he said about us having a fight and me getting deceived into divorcing him and remarrying someone else.“Ermm. What was our quarrel about again?”Max scr
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 158 Love Letters
~Rosemary~The man stared at me before taking the burger from me. He smiled. “Thank you.”“Don’t you ever get tired?” I blurted out. He chuckled. “What do you mean?”“Come, sit,” he added, tapping the space on the bench.I hesitated. I didn't even know this man, but here I was, sharing my lunch. There was something warm about him.“Don’t you ever get tired?” I asked again, sitting down on the edge of the bench.I turned, smiling. “I do, Rose.”“But you have been staying out here day and night.”He shrugged. “I wanted to make sure you were all right and I wanted a chance to talk to you. Max banned me from coming close to your ward.”I sighed, placing my hands on my knees. “My husband… I mean, Max doesn't like you. He says you are bad news.”He shook his head. “Honestly… I am not in the least surprised by his behavior.”“Because you are a gigolo who deceived me into marrying you?”He chuckled. But when I looked at his face, he looked sad.“Actually…” he began, turning to face me again.
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 157 Shameless Beggar
~Gerald~Amani gasped. “Of course not! Why would you accuse me of such a thing?”I shrugged. “Maybe because of the fact that you have always been jealous of Rosemary and you have been shamelessly trying to get with me. Or the fact that you are the most evil person I know!”Amani slapped her chest. “That's mean, Gerald! I might not be perfect, but I would never push my own sister off a cliff!”“Oh, cut the crap! Do I have to remind you that you once put honey in her food, slept with her husband, and even stole her baby?”Amani rolled her eyes. “I don't know what you are talking about.”“Typical!”I sucked my teeth and began to walk away.“Wait! I have something else to say,” Amani stopped me.I frowned. “What is it?”“I was thinking..” Amani fiddled with her fingers like a little girl.“Get to the point. I don't have all day!”“Ermm… I was wondering if you could give me some money.”I scoffed. “I don't have money to give you.”“But I heard that you are a billionaire and you own several

~Gerald~“Rose, it’s me, Gerald. Can you see me now?” I uttered, pulling back so she could see my face.But Rosemary squinted even more. “Why are you in my ward? I don't know who you are, sir.”What! Did I hear wrong?I blinked, then shook my head. “Rose, you are joking right?”“I came as soon as I found out you were here. Why didn't you call me?” I added, sitting on the edge of the bed.Rosemary slowly turned her neck to look at me. “Why would I call you? I don't know you!”“Why do you keep saying that? It’s me, Gerald. Can't you see me?”She frowned. “Look, mister. As you can see, I am not in the right state to be arguing. I need to rest. Leave now before my husband comes and sees you here.”“What!” I sprang to my feet. “Rosemary, please you are taking this joke too far. I am your husband!”“No, you are not!”The second Rosemary raised her voice, I heard the door open behind me.I turned to see who it was.“Max? What the fuck are you doing here?”Max stood frozen at the door with a
