Return Of The Billionaire's Soulmate Chapter 19: Jealousy.
The moonlight filtered through the curtains, casting soft shadows across the room as Sienna made a difficult decision. She knew staying beside Jayson tonight wouldn’t hurt—after all, he had always been there for her during her darkest times. She hesitated for a moment, her gaze lingering on him, wondering what kind of pain he was hiding. But the question would have to wait until tomorrow. She smiled gently, and nodded. Instead of retreating to another room, she carefully settled on the bed next to Jayson, pulling her son close between them. The warmth of their presence surrounded her, offering a sense of comfort and safety.Jayson couldn’t help but smile when he realized Sienna was sharing the same bed with him. To him, it felt as if they were already married. A wishful thought crept into his mind—what if this wasn’t the last time they slept together? Should he feign sickness occasionally to get more of her attention? Yet, he quickly dismissed the idea, knowing she might not always h

Alexander inhaled deeply, his breath shaky as he prepared to face what he had come for. He had troubled Marianne enough already; his constant presence in her life might be suffocating her, and he could feel the strain it was causing him as well. Perhaps giving her some space would also ease his pain, though he wasn't sure if he could actually let go.After getting what he came for, he headed towards his car, the weight of his emotions pressed heavily on him, making every step toward the car feel like an uphill climb. He briefly stopped walking as he met someone he wasn't familiar with resting casually on his car. He started to walk again to his car, attempting to enter when the person spoke up.“It must be hard” the person remarked. Already in a sour mood, Alexander chose to ignore the comment, slipping into his car and driving away without a word. Watching him leave, Vincent chuckled, clearly entertained by Alexander’s reaction.“He hasn’t changed at all,” Vincent murmured to himself

Vincent watched Marianne closely as she bustled around the kitchen, preparing a meal for him. It was clear that she felt a sense of obligation since she had nothing to offer him except a meal. When she finally set the plate in front of him and took a seat opposite, she smiled warmly, visibly pleased to see him."You look so happy to see me," Vincent remarked, taking a bite of the food she had prepared. There was a playful tone in his voice, and he couldn’t help but notice her genuine warmth.Marianne’s smile broadened. "Of course, I’ve been wanting to thank you for a long time. But I heard you traveled even before the final exams," she explained, her voice carrying a hint of regret for the lost time.Vincent’s gaze remained fixed on her as he asked, "Does that mean you missed me all this while?" His question was teasing, yet there was an underlying sincerity as he stirred his food absentmindedly."Of course," Marianne admitted, her eyes sparkling with honesty. "I even waited for you d

Carine couldn't make sense of what her friend was saying, but she didn't want to risk saying anything that might upset Sophia. It wasn’t the idea of visiting Jayson that concerned her—what worried her was the possibility that Jayson might already be in a relationship."How about we visit him together for his thirty-second birthday? It's only a few months away," Carine suggested. Sophia stopped, gave her a thoughtful look, and then nodded. "I could make 'myself' his birthday present," she said, grinning as thoughts of what she could do at Jayson's party filled her mind."Thanks, cupcake, that’s a brilliant idea," Sophia winked at Carine before getting to her feet. It had been a long day, and she needed some time to unwind.****Alexander exhaled deeply as he removed his glasses, rubbing his temples in an attempt to ease his tiredness. He glanced over at Jake’s desk, noticing his friend still immersed in work, showing no signs of taking a break. Alexander, on the other hand, felt comp

After landing in Silverton, Alexander found the car he had arranged waiting for him. As he settled into the back seat, he instructed the driver to head to Marianne's house. When they arrived, Alexander stepped out while his driver, Paul, stayed behind in the car. He had asked Paul to pick him up from the airport without notifying his mother—he wanted to surprise her after so many years away.Entering the house, he spotted Mrs. Corelle sitting on the couch, her glasses perched on her nose as she skimmed through the newspaper. She looked as beautiful as ever, and Alexander couldn’t help but notice how much Marianne had inherited from her. He quietly approached and sat beside her, waiting for her to notice him. When she finally lifted her gaze from the newspaper, her eyes widened in surprise."Oh my goodness, Alexander!" she exclaimed, her voice filled with excitement. It had been so long since she last saw him, and she had missed him deeply. But her excitement quickly gave way to confu

Sienna was deep in conversation with her son, hoping to lift her mood and keep her mind occupied with something other than Alexander. He didn’t care about her, so she was determined not to care about him either. She had managed to do it for the past five years, and she believed she could do it again."So, tell me, there was a test today, right? How did it go?" she asked with a smile as Emilio puffed out his cheeks in mock disappointment."Mom, seriously? That’s not even supposed to be a question. I’m disappointed in you," Emilio teased, pouting playfully, which made Sienna smile even more. She already knew he had aced it, being the top student in his class."It must be hard pretending you don’t miss him, huh?" Emilio said, catching her off guard. Before Sienna could fully process his words, Emilio glanced up and noticed Michael approaching. He smiled and waved at him, having just now seen him for the first time that day. Maybe he hadn’t noticed Michael earlier because his mom was acti

Mrs. Skarsgard followed her son into his room. Alexander was already shirtless when she entered, and his face was a picture of frustration. He was annoyed that his mother had pretended not to know who he was referring to as "wife" earlier."You should stop barging into my room like that. What if I were naked?" he snapped, his irritation clear. His mother responded with a hard smack to his head."Look who’s talking. Do you remember when you used to run around naked? I threatened to cut off those ‘balls’ if you didn’t stop. I’m sure the maids have seen more than enough of your toothpick" she said, rolling her eyes. Alexander blinked in surprise."Toothpick? Really?" he asked incredulously, grabbing a shirt from his wardrobe. His mother shrugged and settled onto the couch, ready to continue their earlier conversation."But Xander, did you get remarried? You left to find Marianne and promised not to leave until you did. Now you’re telling me you’re married? What’s going on?" she asked. Al
Last Updated : 2024-09-10Return Of The Billionaire's Soulmate Chapter 26: Who kidnapped Emilio?
It felt as though the blood in Sienna’s veins had dried up. For a moment, she lost all sense of reality—her mind shut down, unable to process what she’d just heard. Her son meant everything to her. How could she possibly go on living if her precious child was missing? Still struggling to clear her thoughts, her phone rang again. Her hands trembled as she answered, seeing it was Jayson calling. The moment she picked up, she broke into sobs. "Sienna, what’s wrong? Why are you crying?" he asked, his voice full of worry, but she was unable to form words through her tears. "You're scaring me, Sienna. What happened?" he pressed, sounding even more anxious. "Jayson… Emilio… Emilio’s not at school," she finally choked out between sobs. Her voice wavered, every word stifled by the overwhelming grief catching in her throat. “What do you mean?" he asked, his heart pounding, hoping he had misunderstood her. But when she confirmed it with louder cries, his stomach dropped. “What?!” Jayson ex

Return Of The Billionaire's Soulmate Chapter 111: The interview.
The room grew heavy with silence after Dylan’s revelation. Then, as if a dam had broken, gasps and murmurs filled the broadcast. Comments flooded the live chat, scrolling faster than anyone could read, as viewers tried to process what they’d just heard. At Dylan's agency, Brian sat up straighter on the couch, his eyes glued to the screen. His brows furrowed for a moment before lifting in disbelief. The shock on his face quickly turned to amusement as the chat filled with disbelief and speculation about the dating news. "Boyfriend?" Brian muttered to himself, his voice tinged with confusion. He tilted his head, trying to make sense of it. The comments kept rolling in, shifting attention away from the purpose of the broadcast entirely. Instead of the scandal, the public had become fixated on Michael and Dylan’s relationship. "Are they saying Dylan is dating Michael?" Brian scoffed, a sharp laugh escaping him. "That’s absurd. Who’s going to believe that crap?" His laughter grew l
Return Of The Billionaire's Soulmate Chapter 110: Michael's Boyfriend.
The moment Alexander got the news, he called Michael. His voice was tense, filled with urgency. "Michael, where's your mother staying?" Michael sighed heavily, running a hand through his hair. Emilio, seated nearby, watched him intently, his small face scrunched with worry. "I'll text you the address" Michael said, trying to keep his voice steady, though his frustration was evident. "I’ll handle things on my end. Just... stay focused. I’ll text you once I’ve sorted something out." The call ended, leaving Michael staring at his phone. Emilio’s big eyes tracked every move, and Michael gave him a faint smile, though it didn’t quite reach his eyes. Before he could speak to Emilio, Michael decided to call his coach, Mr. Smith after he had sent the address to Alexander. As the line connected, he braced himself for the inevitable anger. Everyone else had already lashed out at him... would his coach be any different? But Mr. Smith’s voice was calm. "Michael, Come over to the compa

"I’ll die at this rate if we don’t… you know… 'do something'" he whispered, his voice dropping lower, his lips brushing dangerously close to hers. Marianne froze, her pulse racing at his audacity. Wasn’t it too soon for this? They hadn’t properly reconciled—at least, not in her mind. Or was she the only one unaware that they had?Her eyes narrowed slightly, but she didn’t pull away."Alex," she warned, her tone sharp, yet betraying the flutter of uncertainty in her chest.But Alexander closed the gap, capturing her lips in a soft, lingering kiss. For a moment, Marianne stayed perfectly still, her mind racing. Then, against her better judgment, she found herself responding, her resolve melting away like ice under the warmth of his touch. When he pulled back, his eyes searched hers, vulnerability etched into every line of his face. "Stay with me," he whispered, his voice barely audible. Marianne sighed, torn between her emotions and her instincts. She reached for the blanket, tu

Emilio lay on the couch, his chest rising and falling steadily as he slept. Michael walked out of the bathroom after his shower, his gaze falling on the boy. Seeing him asleep, he let out a soft sigh. "He hasn’t taken his medicine yet," he muttered, reaching for his phone. Concerned, he dialed his doctor, though it was late, and he doubted the doctor could make it. "Hello," Michael said as soon as the call connected. "Hey, Michael. Are you feeling weak again?" came the doctor’s groggy voice. "There’s a kid here I need you to check on," Michael explained. "I don’t know if it’s too late for you to come over, but—" "It 'is' late, Michael. It’s almost midnight," the doctor interrupted. Michael sighed heavily. "But he’s only six years old, and I’m worried." He ran a hand through his hair, his voice tinged with frustration. "Alright," the doctor relented. "Go to him, feel his temperature, and tell me what it’s like." Michael complied, placing a hand on Emilio’s forehe

"Cheers to internet chaos," Brian muttered, his voice low and smug.The figure chuckled briefly before smirking. "I’ll be on my way now. Just so you know, one call is all it takes for me to forward this to my trusted friend—a reporter," they said, their tone dripping with confidence. Brian nodded in agreement. With that, the figure retreated to their car and drove off."Michael, Michael, Michael," Brian said, shaking his head with mock pity. "Let’s see how you’re going to overcome this."He stepped inside, locking the door behind him, and dropped onto the couch. A moment later, he erupted into loud, maniacal laughter, filling the empty room with the sound of his triumph.*******Sophia paced back and forth in her room, her phone gripped tightly in her hand. The weight of her plan pressed heavily on her chest. For some reason, doubt had begun to creep in. Was it too obvious that she was behind this? Would Jayson figure it out so easily?But what could she do now? The damage was already

The car was masked by the rain, unnoticed by anyone else. The person in the car chuckled softly to themselves, their satisfaction evident. "Perfect," they muttered, staring at the taken photos before lowering their phone. "This will come in handy."The car sped off into the rain-soaked night afterwards, leaving behind an air of mystery and an impending sense of trouble. ***Inside the house, Michael gently placed Emilio on the couch, undressing him, quickly wrapping him in a warm blanket. Emilio’s body was still trembling, his eyes fluttering as he fought to stay conscious. Michael knelt beside him, his face a mixture of concern and guilt. "Why did you come here, Emilio? What were you thinking?" He muttered."I... I wanted to see you," Emilio whispered, his voice barely audible. "I called... but you didn’t pick up..." Michael closed his eyes briefly, his heart aching at the boy’s words. He placed a hand gently on Emilio’s forehead, feeling the chill that had seeped into his bo

Alexander and Jake climbed into the car, and Jake started the engine. Alexander leaned back in his seat, pulling out his phone."We should check the CCTV footage first," Alexander suggested, his voice steady but urgent.Jake nodded, his grip tightening on the steering wheel. "We need to move fast. If she’s been taken, time isn’t on our side."Within minutes, they arrived at a nearby surveillance hub. The staff at the facility recognized Alexander immediately, offering no resistance as he demanded access to the camera footage of the surrounding area. Alexander and Jake sat in front of the monitors as the technician rewound the footage. They scanned the screens intently, their eyes darting across the feed. It didn’t take long before they spotted it...a black car pulling up near Marianne moments before she vanished. "There," Alexander said, pointing at the screen. The technician froze the frame, zooming in on the license plate. "Can you trace that vehicle?" Jake asked.The technici

"What do we do next," the message read.Sophia leaned back in her seat, her fingers lightly tapping against the screen, her mind so wide. Whatever was unfolding, she was in no rush. She would wait until Jayson decided to do the right thing.*****Jayson stepped outside and his eyes began scanning the quiet street. He had hoped to find Marianne outside, but the stillness only deepened his unease. Something felt wrong. She had left not so long, he was supposed to see her here, but standing here, the emptiness around him made it harder to breathe. Where was she?Before he could take another step, he almost bumped into someone. His gaze snapped upward to meet Alexander’s eyes.The tension between them was immediate, and Jayson’s brows furrowed. "What are you doing here?" Jayson asked, his voice colder than intended. Alexander raised a brow, a faint smirk playing on his lips. "You think I’d come because it’s your birthday? Why? You think you're special or something?"His tone was mocking

"if you think i’m lying, dare him to deny it," she challenged, her gaze locking on jayson. her smile widened as she saw his fists clench tightly. Marianne, seated nearby, glanced at him with a quiet concern. Her gentle gaze seemed to soften his anger for a fleeting moment. Catching her eyes on him, Jayson let out a faint, forced smile. "I’ll be back," he said quietly, his voice calm despite the storm raging inside him. Marianne nodded, and he gently placed Emilio beside her before turning toward Sophia. Sophia’s face was a mask of composure, but her fiery gaze betrayed her intentions. As Jayson approached, he hesitated for a moment before reaching out to pull her aside. But before he could, Sophia shifted her eyes to meet his, her grip tightening on her phone. "You wouldn’t like what I’m about to do, Jayson," she said, her voice low and biting, audible only to him. "Are you just going to let me tell everyone or admit that I’m your girlfriend?" Her words hung in the air like a
