My Stone-Hearted Billionaire Husband Chapter 67: Her Entire World In His Hands
Sebastian, seated behind his desk, regarded her coolly. "Ah, my dear Wife. Always a pleasure to see you, especially under such... dramatic circumstances."“What did you do to my family? This... this sabotage. It's your doing, isn't it?" Kourtney wasted no time for pleasantries and cut straight to the chase.Sebastian leaned back in his chair, a smirk playing on his lips. "My, my, such accusations. And here I thought we were starting to get to know each other better."Kourtney gritted her teeth at his obvious childish banter during a serious confrontation.“You… Just cut the crap. You know exactly what I'm talking about.”Sebastian's smirk widened. "Ah, yes. The little incident with your father that you refused to tell your HUSBAND about. Quite the scene. Wasn't it? But rest assured, my dear, that was merely a taste of what's to come."“That’s…. That's what all this is about? You're destroying everything my family has worked so hard to build just because my father lost his temper for a

"Thank you, Ted. Please inform my wife, Kourtney, that we have visitors," Sebastian instructed smoothly, his voice a mask of composure.The old butler bowed and swiftly made his way to deliver the message, leaving Sebastian to contemplate the chessboard of power and emotions that lay before him.He strode out of his study, each step purposeful, his footsteps echoing off the polished marble floors, and then he stopped at the top of the grand staircase. From there, he could oversee the entrance and observe the Allens' approach.The door creaked open, and they came, one by one, in a straight queue, like sacrificial lambs entering the lion's den.Sebastian smirked, enjoying the view.This was the Allens, his supposed in-laws—a once proud and formidable family, now shadows of their former selves.His gaze lingered on them, calculating and detached. He observed the tension in their stance, the flicker of hope in their eyes as they shifted about, unsure of where to stand. Their steps were he

Kourtney's heart ached at her father's words, the pain evident in his voice. She could see the turmoil in his eyes, as she knew he was a proud man who barely ever admitted his mistakes. But now…. Now he was doing that in front of everyone.Taking a deep breath, she responded. “I forgive you, Dad. It's okay!”Luke visibly sagged with relief, his shoulders relaxing as he absorbed his daughter's words. He never thought it would actually be this EASY!So easy!!!He reached out quickly and enveloped Kourtney in a warm embrace, further proving their relationship was good again.Kourtney was taken aback at first. She couldn't remember the last time she hugged her dad. This man who had never truly cared enough to embrace her for as long as she could remember was doing so now in front of everyone.She felt bitter-sweet!Seeing Kourtney’s compassionate response to Luke, the rest of the Allens present, except Kathlyn, started approaching, asking for forgiveness concerning the previous incident a

Kourtney's blood immediately ran cold on hearing Sebastian's brazen proposal.“Uhh?” she asked, still in doubt of the extent of his demands.“You heard me,” he replied proudly.His face was completely straight and unreadable now, which meant he was super-duper serious.Kourtney shrugged.‘Why does he always have to make everything so difficult… so complicated?’ She thought to herself, frustration bubbling beneath the surface.This man… he always had to push boundaries!Naked in the shower… With him?How can he be so shameless?She had known Sebastian was a shameless fad, but this was a whole new level of absurdness.Ridiculously Unreasonable!!!She knew what he wanted, what he always seemed to want from her. Yet, she could never grow accustomed to his insane demands.“You.. can't you just be reasonable and less vulgar for once?”“Well…Where’s the fun in that?” Sebastian replied smugly, his eyes locking onto hers with an intensity that made her knees weak."He knows exactly what he's d

She glanced around the table, meeting the eyes of her family members as they all looked at her with eyes full of hope and expectancy.How could she secure this land and save her family's legacy?“Heck! It means going through that man again, isn't it?” she grimaced inwardly.She just never seems to escape Sebastian's clutches. The man appeared to hold the key to every door she needed to unlock.It was traumatizing at this point!With a deep breath, she turned her attention back to her grandmother. “I'll do it, Grandma. I'll find a way to get that land for us. I… I’ll talk to my husband about it.”A glimmer of hope danced in Grandma Florence's eyes as she reached out and squeezed Kourtney's hand. “Oh, bless you, my dear. You are truly our ray of hope in these dark times.”Kourtney could only force a fake smile as she took in everyone’s praises and words of admiration throughout the rest of the brunch.******Later that evening, as the Allens prepared to depart from the Serenity Villa, M

Kathlyn hesitated for a moment, her eyes darting away for a fleeting moment before locking onto Kourtney's gaze.A bitter laugh escaped her lips, devoid of any humor. "Oh, you really don't know, do you? You have no clue about the pain you've caused me, the opportunities you've stolen from me. But one day, the world will see you for who you truly are, and then you’ll understand why I can’t stand the sight of you.”Kourtney's brow furrowed in confusion. "What are you talking about, Kathlyn? What do you mean by that? What are you hiding?” Her voice quivered, betraying her inner turmoil as she tried to make sense of Kathlyn’s remarks.Her mind raced, trying to piece together the puzzle of her sister's cryptic words.But Kathlyn remained stoic, her resolve unyielding. “Oh, not now, Sister! But you’ll find out soon enough. But for now, just know that I have my reasons for despising you.”With a final glare, she turned on her heel and strode towards the door, leaving Kourtney standing there,

“WHY??? Why am I so affected by him? It's just a shower, just a deal. But it’s... it's intoxicating," Kourtney pondered, her breath catching in her throat as heat coursed through her veins. But then she needed to stick to the plan and not get carried away by the man’s drop-dead gorgeous body and charms.Sebastian was a master of seduction, a man who knew how to play her like a finely tuned instrument, but she wasn't going to let herself fall under his spell this time.She knew she couldn't let him have her so easily tonight. Despite the overwhelming desire that pulsed through her veins, she needed to stay focused. FOCUS!Meanwhile, Sebastian licked his lips slowly as he let his sly gaze roam over her naked body, taking in every curve and contour with a hunger that bordered on obsession.The sight of her body before him, all wet, vulnerable, and alluring, sent a rush of blood straight to his member, causing it to twitch and throb with an urgency that demanded attention. **"Sh

After shuddering for a fleeting moment, Kourtney met Sebastian's intense gaze, her eyes searching his for understanding. “Nnnn… Uhmm… Actually, I have a condition of my own. And you must agree to it before we go any further!”Sebastian's expression darkened even more before he chuckled, a low sound that sent shivers down her spine. He couldn't believe her audacity.“What makes you think you have the right to condition me, Woman?”“Well… you did condition me into this in the first place. So, I am just giving you a taste of your own medicine. And if I remember correctly, your condition only stated for us to have a shower together… naked. Touching me wasn't part of the deal. Was it?” Kourtney said, putting on a brave face.She wasn’t about to let Sebastian’s frightening eyes and demeanor scare her off from her already perfectly-crafted scheme.They say a man is at his weakest when he is aroused beyond control. Sebastian was no exception, and she was determined to use that to her advantag

My Stone-Hearted Billionaire Husband Chapter 121: A Petty Thief
Kourtney glanced around the room, eyeing the other women. They were all looking at her with suspicion as if she were a suspect in a crime she didn’t commit. Indeed, she was the target.“Oh wow! This has never happened in our history before.” “Who could be the thief?”“We've never encountered such cases at any of our gatherings in the past!”Kourtney sneered on hearing their annoying remarks.It was painfully obvious they were trying to make it look like the thief was someone new in their circle. It all seemed like a slow-motion scene from a bad movie that made her bored, and she couldn't help but roll her eyes in disgust.Did they really think they could frame her like this?She didn’t need a prophet to know she had been set up. The irritation bubbled within her. These women were more petty than she had ever imagined.“That's true! Why don’t we start by checking the purse of our beloved new young mistress?”Before Kourtney could say, Jack, Sheila had moved swiftly, snatching her purs
My Stone-Hearted Billionaire Husband Chapter 120: The New Daughter-In-Law
The next day came quicker than expected for Kourtney. It was Saturday afternoon, and the Woods ladies always hosted a tea party. It was like a compulsory family-friendly tradition, they said.“Who still holds tea parties in the 21st century?” she muttered to herself, shaking her head in disbelief.The Woods family, apparently.Over here, everything felt ceremonious with a touch of rigid formality.Just the thought of it made her want to laugh and cry, at the same time.The ladies were dressed in elegant gowns, their hats adorned with flowers while holding dainty china teacups and sitting beneath a grand oak tree at the center of the Woods estate garden. Kourtney felt like she had stepped into a time capsule that took her to the past.Oh lord!It’s giving the 19th century.It was the Victorian era once again!What would they have next?A masquerade ball?She chuckled lightly as she placed her own flowery hat on her head, feeling as though she was part of some kind of regency novel.Li

“We can leave now if you want,” Sebastian said as he took her reddened hand, massaging it softly.She didn't have to put up with this nonsense.Kourtney looked up at him, her heart swelling with gratitude.“No, I don’t want to. I can handle them,” she replied, determination flooding her veins.You can call her so many things. But a “quitter” isn't one of them.“Very well then. They will either accept you or face my wrath. I assure you this,” Sebastian spoke with ruthless precision as he pulled her closer.As a child, he had watched helplessly as his late mother was bullied continuously by members of the Woods family.Because of her poor background, they had never liked her.Back then, he couldn't do anything about it except clench his fists in frustration. However, one day, he vowed never to feel powerless like that ever again—a promise that fueled his fierce determination to succeed and made him become the man he is today.And now, he couldn't help his protectiveness over Kourtney a

That fear!It was that fear that somehow protected her like a shield, making them comply with whatever Sebastian commanded, even if it meant accepting her as his wife.They hated her presence here but could do little to nothing about it.Great!Just great!As they moved deeper into the grand living room, ornate chandeliers hung from the ceilings, casting a warm glow that seemed almost mocking in contrast to the chilly reception she was currently receiving.Apart from Grandpa Woods, other family members began to step forward to greet her. But their attempts felt empty and void, mere formalities arranged with forced smiles, making her feel small and insignificant.“Welcome to the family, Young Lady,” a middle-aged woman with perfectly styled blonde hair said. “We’ve heard so much about you.” The words dripped with sarcasm, and Kourtney could see the flicker of contempt behind her bright blue eyes.Oh!They knew!It was clear they already knew her entire history.Her identity and recent
My Stone-Hearted Billionaire Husband Chapter 117: An Unwelcome Guest
The drive to the Woods’s ancestral villa was filled with an electric tension that made Kourtney feel alive yet utterly terrified. She perched on the plush leather passenger seat of Sebastian’s Bentley while he drove, gliding through the streets with great skill and charisma.Her heart was thumping loudly in her chest, and she placed a hand on it as if to calm her raging storm of emotions.Sebastian, effortlessly handsome behind the wheel, glanced over at her with an eyebrow raised. “Can you stop being so nervous?” He asked, a hint of irritation seeping into his voice while his dark eyes narrowed slightly. He saw no reason for her to feel that way. She was making him feel like they were heading to a live-or-die boxing match instead of just his family villa.The woman simply had nothing to worry about. If only she knew....... Meanwhile, Kourtney rolled her eyes at him, a small gesture of defiance, but she said nothing.He still didn’t understand. He still didn’t get it.And she gue
My Stone-Hearted Billionaire Husband Chapter 116: A Haunted House
After a moment of silence, when she didn’t hear any response, she shrugged it off as if nothing had happened.Edwin Woods's heart was hammering in his chest.That was a close call!He peeped, watching her from the small hole by the door.He realized she was still wrapped in that delicate white towel, her hair cascading down her back in damp waves. His mind raced, imagining how soft her skin would be if he could touch her. But he had to stay hidden.He observed every little movement, from the way she brushed her damp hair back to the way her towel hugged her curves. She was so beautiful, so enchanting, and he couldn’t tear his eyes away from her.He felt like a thief, stealing moments of her life, but in his mind, he was merely a guardian waiting for the right time to make his presence known.He watched as she rummaged through her closet, pulling out clothes.She resumed her whistling, a carefree tune that made him smile. The way she moved, so blissfully unaware of his presence, sent a

Sebastian stepped out of the car, holding the door open for her. “Come on, let’s go inside,” he urged gently as he extended a hand to her.Kourtney hesitated for a second but then took his hand, feeling the warmth of his grip. As she stepped out of the limousine, she was greeted by the bright lights of the boutique and the luxurious aura that surrounded it. Inside was a treasure trove of elegance. Silks, satins, and shimmering fabrics adorned the racks, each piece gorgeous and unique. She felt a flicker of excitement as she walked through the aisles while Sebastian watched her, admiration filling his eyes.She looked like a delicate flower in a garden of riches, and he wanted to shower her with the best of the best.“Pick whatever you like,” he ordered.Her heart fluttered at his words. “Really? You don’t mind?” “Not at all,” Sebastian rasped.The way her emerald eyes lit up—it was mesmerizing. Just like that, they spent the next few hours shopping.The shop attendants treated Kour

The men walked straight to her, ignoring Liam completely. “Mrs. Woods, Mr. Woods wants you to come join him in his car right away,” one of them said.Kourtney’s heart dropped. “He—he’s here?” she stammered, glancing nervously out the window. Sure enough, her husband’s white limousine was parked outside, surrounded by a crowd of curious onlookers. It felt like a scene straight out of a movie!‘Oh no! What now?’ she winced inwardly.How did he even find out she was here?Would he accuse her of being promiscuous again?Surely, he might confuse this little luncheon with Liam for a romantic date. Right?The man was quick to jump to conclusions, and she feared facing the wrath of his anger again.What would he do to her this time? Drive her to Coolaroo again?Kourtney shivered with that thought in mind. Her heart started racing with fear and confusion.She stood up, her hands trembling as she shot Liam an apologetic look. “I... I have to go.”“Go? Go where?” Liam demanded, his expression

However, Sebastian sat behind his mahogany desk, barely acknowledging her presence. Instead, he was buried in a stack of papers on his desk, his dark brows furrowed in concentration.Rachael felt a pang of disappointment as he didn’t even glance up to greet her.She could feel the embarrassing mix of frustration and sadness swelling in her chest.As usual, he was acting as if she were just another piece of furniture in the room.What would it take for this man to notice her?She swallowed hard, the presence of his two hulking bodyguards hovering in the corner of the room making her feel even more small and vulnerable. She knew they were there to prevent her from getting too close, a reminder of the boundaries he had drawn after their last encounter in his office space.He had made it clear that he didn’t want anything personal between them, and that hurt more than she cared to admit.But why is she still...here?“Bastian,” she started, her voice smooth and confident as she prepared to
