One Billion Marriage With Mr CEO Chapter 73
"Wow... All this food looks so delicious," Rakia said as she looked hungrily at everything on her mother's table. She even licked her lips a little with the tip of her tongue. She was starving now and wanted to fill her stomach very much. Rakia sat in one of the chairs across from Pedro, who sat in the head of the family chair. In contrast, Dashtan sat in the chair beside her, and Adeline sat across from her daughter. "Happy birthday, sweetie; I don't think we've celebrated anything for a long time." Adeline was visibly moved, her eyes filled with tears. Rakia, who was spooning food, turned her attention to the woman momentarily, putting on a playful pout to amuse her mother, who finally laughed while wiping away the tears that had escaped her eyes. "Ooo... Come on, Mom, don't cry; I'll cry too," Rakia pleaded, knowing that if she let her mother get lost in her emotions, she might also cry. Fortunately, the food on the table was a good distraction. Dashtan was surprised to see his w

Rakia awoke at three in the morning with a rumbling stomach. She gently pushed Dashtan's arm around her belly and moved from the room to the kitchen. She paused at the granite countertop and yawned before resuming her steps to prepare food. He then opened the refrigerator and looked at what was inside. The clusters of red grapes tempted her to pull two grapes from the stalk and pop them into her mouth one at a time before she returned to looking at the other food. The frozen potatoes made her decide what to eat. Rakia left the four-door refrigerator open to get a plate, then picked up the frozen potato, still in its plastic wrapper, in the transparent drawer of the fridge. Sometimes, she arranged the contents of this refrigerator. Still, more often, Mrs. Hunt did it, thinking about going shopping and adding some of the food she needed. Since she was often hungry lately, she ate a lot. Before frying the potatoes, which were still half frozen, Rakia decided to have a warm drink. She ma

Rakia was stirring her milk when morning sickness struck. She quickly moved to the nearby sink and vomited. She tried not to make too much noise, but no matter how hard she tried, Dashtan's hearing could still pick up the sound of her vomiting. Rakia washed her mouth after vomiting enough to make her lose energy. "Tell me what's wrong," Dashtan asked as she gently massaged his wife's shoulder. Rakia remained silent before finally turning to Dashtan and looking down. They were silent momentarily, waiting for each other to speak, but Rakia was the first to break the silence. "Do you love me?" Rakia leaned her butt against the sink and folded her arms across her chest. She looked at Dashtan, who was waiting. "I do," Dashtan replied, momentarily making Rakia widen her eyes. Then she moved closer to the man. "What did you say?" Rakia asked again. "I love you," Dashtan said, then looked down and smiled, embarrassed. Rakia felt confused but more happy. "Look at me, Ash!" Rakia said sof

Dashtan followed Rakia to their room and found her sitting in front of the dressing table, smearing her face with skincare. Rakia, who saw the man’s arrival, immediately looked sarcastic and finished her activity in front of the mirror. She got up and intended to leave the room, but when she passed Dashtan, she was surprised by the man’s action of kneeling in front of her. “Please, don’t leave me, Rakia... You are everything to me; our marriage means so much to me. I promise I will let Dalilah go.” Dashtan spoke with his face lowered deeply. Rakia sighed harshly; she just stared at the man with all her thoughts raging. She thought about discovering the truth about Dalilah herself, but for now, she didn’t want to see Dashtan around. “If I matter to you, please, just for once, let go of all that ego, but if you can’t, it’s better to let go of me,” Rakia said with her eyes starting to tear up before she cried, she quickly walked away from the man. She went to the kitchen to occupy hers

"Do you still want to go on vacation?" asked Dashtan as he was about to put on his tie. Rakia, who looked ready to go, wore a maroon blazer that covered her black short-sleeved shirt with a high collar. Black material pants that looked slim completed her appearance that morning. She tied her hair, which was starting to extend down her back, in a ponytail and let some of her hair fall to the side of her face. "No, I'm busy," Rakia replied, wearing five-cent heeled shoes with a shiny black pointed toe. "Are you sure? You can go alone if you don't want my company." Dashtan spoke still with his tie undone. Rakia looked at the man who seemed to need help with his necktie. She went over to the man and helped him put on the necktie. Dashtan was a little surprised by the woman's action, who suddenly took over the activity he was currently doing. But he soon let his wife take over. "Had it not been for that news, I would still want to go on vacation and take you along." Rakia acknowledged t

When Rakia arrived home in the afternoon, she found an unpleasant sight. Dashtan and Dalilah were sitting together on the living room sofa in front of the television while the woman was in Dashtan's arms. Rakia felt tiredness and fatigue due to the workload, and pregnancy worsened when she saw her husband looking intimate with his other wife. Realizing Rakia's arrival, Dashtan and Dalilah turned their attention to the woman. They unraveled their current positions, and Dashtan said, "We need to talk." Rakia nodded and followed Dashtan to their room. Rakia, who followed the man, did not wonder what they would discuss. Rakia took off her shoes, taking them off her feet one by one. "Why did you spend that much money on the Oregon hospital in Benjamin's name? Is he blackmailing you again?" Rakia was entirely surprised by the question. She walked over to the bed and sat on its edge. Dashtan waited for the woman's answer, standing up, but she soon walked over to Rakia and sat beside her. "

Rakia was only begrudgingly listening to Dahstan's wishes. The man was currently in a position with his back to her and was frustrated."Ash.""You didn't hear what I said?" Dashtan's tone was cold and threatening. Rakia swallowed with fear and anxiety that began to overwhelm her simultaneously. She decided to leave the man. When she was behind the door of Dashtan's office, Rakia sighed loudly. She thought he would react differently after learning about her pregnancy. She thought Dashtan would be happy and understand why she hid her pregnancy. Rakia went to her room to lie down. Her mind did not stop thinking about Dashtan. All sorts of assumptions were raging in her mind, and almost all were worrying assumptions."What if Dashtan divorces me and chooses Dalilah?" The question echoed in her mind, but the answer was uncertain. She intended to wait for Dashtan to return to the room, but he came at midnight. Rakia was restless and got up from lying; initially, she wanted to find Dashtan

Dashtan was seen talking to a man when Rakia had just exited the cafeteria. Liam caught up with her and stood behind her while looking at Dashtan. “Who do you think he’s looking for?” Liam asked, surprising Rakia. Liam smiled at Rakia’s surprised reaction to not realizing his existence. “You think?” Rakia threw a question at the question. She wasn’t sure how to answer. As the man Dashtan was talking to excused himself, the man turned to the two of them. Dashtan waved with a smile and hurried towards them. Rakia wasn’t sure whether to return Dashtan’s greeting; she turned to Liam, who returned her husband’s small wave. “We need to talk,” Dashtan said, confusing the two. “You mean Rakia?” asked Liam. “No, but you,” Dashtan replied, which made Liam nod. Rakia let out a long sigh and quickly walked away because she felt she was not considered. Dashtan didn’t even look at her. “Kia...,” Liam called out, which made Rakia stop and look back. “Rest if you’re not feeling well.” Liam’s w

Four months later.Rakia was surprised when Dashtan hugged her from behind. Her belly now looked bloated. She had just turned off the stove after the fried rice was finished. Dashtan kissed her earlobe, and it caused a slight sting that thrilled Rakia. “Are you done?” asked Dashtan in a highly sensual tone. “Why? You want to fuck me again?” guessed Rakia, which made her husband chuckle. Rakia rolled her eyes. “We should do other things besides bed activities. Eat, walk, work, the world is big and beautiful and there are many things we can do.” It wasn’t that Rakia didn’t want to, but they had done it repeatedly last night. Dashtan, who had just come from Dubai and left for three days, immediately asked for her nightly allotment. “I’m away for three days, I’m a man, there’s a lot of temptation in Dubai,” Dashtan admitted. Rakia turned her body to face the man. She draped both arms around her husband’s neck. “Where did you go while in Dubai? Did Razak take you to a place wh

Dashtan opened the door to the room he used as a reading room and found Rakia sitting on a comfortable sofa reading a book. The woman's attention was distracted by Dashtan in the doorway, who smiled and greeted her. "Hi, feeling better?" asked Dashtan as he approached Rakia and squatted in front of the woman. Rakia nodded with a gentle smile. "But the doctor still doesn't want me to go to work, are you home yet?" It was Rakia's turn to ask; it wasn't even lunchtime, and Dashtan was already home. "I want to take you somewhere." Dashtan said, which made Rakia frown. She then guessed. "Not fancy gifts again," Rakia said; she didn't really like the way Dashtan gave her gifts. It was always expensive stuff, not that she wasn't happy, but she still had to get used to using things bought with piles of money. Dashtan chuckled. A month had passed after all the problems between them and Dalilah were resolved. Dashtan divorced the woman, and Dalilah had to go to jail for the crime of att

Staring at the footage Dashtan was watching on Rakia’s tablet in his workspace, Dashtan checked all the footage Rakia had managed to get from the surveillance cameras the woman had installed in Dalilah’s room. It was only a matter of waiting for the woman’s arrest warrant from the police so that the police could freely search all her belongings. Dashtan transferred all the footage to a small flash drive, and tomorrow, he will submit the data to the police station as additional evidence. After checking all the data, Dashtan went from his office to his bedroom; he met Dalilah, crossing the living room. “Hi, what’s going on? I heard someone came in and Rakia-““Enough of the pleasantries, as of this moment I am no longer your husband.”The words were so quick but heard in Dalilah’s ears that she could only be surprised with widened eyes for a split second. Her lips seemed to move to say something, but Dalilah was just silent; Dashtan immediately walked away after saying that. Dalilah co

Dashtan arrived home and dashed into the house, which was currently quite crowded due to the arrival of the police and medics. Without caring about his surroundings, he immediately entered and looked for the figure that was the heart of his heart. When he saw Rakia being treated by the medics on the sofa in the living room, he could only stand still with his eyes filled with tears. He slowly approached the couch, distracted by the man’s arrival. “Hi...,” Rakia greeted softly with a hoarse voice.“Sorry, sir, she needs to be taken to the hospital immediately; the bullet is still inside and must be removed immediately to speed up healing.” Dashtan immediately nodded to the medic’s words. He lifted Rakia’s body, carried her to the ambulance, and followed a few minutes later after finishing his business with the police who arrested the perpetrator. Dashtan, with his murderous gaze, looked at the perpetrator, who two police officers now flanked with his hands cuffed behind his back. He re

A week after Rakia regained consciousness, the woman asked to go home because she didn’t feel at home in the hospital. But that didn’t mean she was free from medical treatment. She still had to keep resting and using IVs to support her recovery. The wound she sustained on her shoulder had not completely dried up, leaving her with pain Rakia could not tolerate. As a result, Dashtan hired a doctor who would come every three days to monitor and check on Rakia’s condition—and also asked the gynecologist, whom Rakia consulted and checked herself, to go to the house to check on the woman’s womb. Dashtan became super protective, which bothered Rakia, but she tried to understand. She asked Pedro to do it, but Pedro was a heart specialist with a busy schedule every day, so he couldn’t make it. “Don’t forget to eat and take your medicine; I’ll be home by lunchtime. Call me quickly if anything happens or you need anything.” Dashtan babbled at length, and it made Rakia roll her eyes because her

On a bright and cloudy Monday morning, Dashtan tried to go to the office and finish some work that had been neglected. Whether he wanted to or not, whether he liked it or not, as the CEO of a multinational company, he had a lot of work to do. Dashtan looked at his appearance in the mirror, which was not wearing a tie perfectly. He remembered the figure of Rakia, who always put on his link every morning. But the woman was still on the verge of life and death. He let out a rough breath and decided not to wear a tie that day. He removed it from his neck and threw it on the bed. He went to the wardrobe room to get a slim-fit suit and put it on, after which he left his room. He called his secretary to order breakfast. “Sir, today there will be a visitor from the police who wants to see you.” The secretary told him when he had just arrived and sat in his chair. He had forgotten about it because his mind had been in turmoil for the past few days. “Yes, let me know when they arrive.” Dasht

Dashtan's words were able to increase the panic and fear Dalilah felt. The woman stared at Dashtan with both eyes perfectly rounded. "W-what do you mean? That person must be lying. I don't know who that person is." Dalilah threw up her defense, to which Dashtan responded with a sarcastic smile. He lowered his raised hand, holding the cell phone to his side, and said, "I'm giving you a choice. Confess now, then I'll divorce you and not take the matter to the law, but if you still want to persist with your lies, you'll lose everything and end up in jail." Dalilah stared at Dashtan with a look full of fear. Her brain was busy thinking of defenses she should say to make him believe her. "Ash, I couldn't possibly do something like that. I am pregnant, so the doctor said, "This is your child; we will live happily." Dalilah was still trying to devise a defense that already sounded disgusting to Dashtan's ears. The man turned around and waved his hand behind him for Dalilah to stop saying

Dashtan returned to the hospital after talking to Razak. Doctor Pedro met him just as he arrived at the door of the ICU; he had just come out of the room to check on Rakia. “Do you want to look after her tonight?” Doctor Pedro looked at his son-in-law with a sympathetic gaze. The look on Dashtan’s face couldn’t hide the anxiety that was engulfing him. Dashtan nodded. “You can sleep in my room, because the ICU doesn’t allow anyone in there except the patient.” Doctor Pedro informed, and once again, Dashtan nodded. “Come on, let’s go to the cafeteria for coffee,” Doctor Pedro invited, which Dashtan agreed to. He needed a conversation partner to distract him from worrying about Rakia’s condition. “I told Adeline about Rakia, she’ll be here tomorrow morning to see her. I know it’s worrying but that woman has been through a lot as a journalist. Rakia is a strong woman.” Pedro smiled as his mind recalled Rakia’s vigorous and unyielding figure. As a stepfather, he knew more or less what

The medical team arrived along with the police, while the fire department arrived not long after. Liam immediately lifted Rakia's body onto a gurney with the help of a medical team and was then taken to the ambulance. The firefighters immediately put out the fire that was still raging and engulfed Rakia's car. Liam stayed for a while to watch the extinguishing process and answer questions from two police officers who had come to the scene. Several DS and other television station reporters covered the events at the location and tried to get information. This time, Liam became the journalist's target for information. The medical team had taken Rakia's body to a nearby hospital earlier. Dashtan came to DS shortly after the ambulance carrying Rakia's body left. "Where is Rakia?" Dashtan asked Liam with a panicked look on his face. "The ambulance just left for the hospital," Liam replied, and Dashtan immediately went to his car and followed the ambulance. Before he started the engine, h
