Saved by the secret billionaire Chapter eleven
Millie's POV A few hours earlier. The last evening I spent with Gabrielle was bitter-sweet. No matter how much I tried to relax and enjoy our time, Michel's words kept replaying in the back of my head. I think it finally occurred to me how dangerous this man could be. And he was the one my best friend chose for her lifetime partner. This thought was devastating, but my hands were tied. I could only pray for Gabrielle to see his true colors one day. Hopefully, it won't be too late then. Now, I had to focus on another task that awaited me. I left my friend's apartment, and immediately, the handsome man approached me. " Millie? Are you Millie?" He asked in a warm, friendly tone. " Yes," was the only word I said before a wide smile spread across his face. " Hi, my name is John. Alex asked me to give you a hand with collecting your stuff. Please follow me. I had a car that may be useful. " With those words, he pointed to the small van parked nearby. " Thank you, and sorry fo

Alexander's POV I furrowed my brows, looking at my best friend. " What do you mean by saying it didn't go well?" John fidgeted his fingers and started talking. The more I have heard, the more pissed I got. " Finally, they said, all her stuff went to charity, but Millie thinks, no, she is sure, it all has been destroyed. So we came back empty-handed." John finished his story with a sad expression. I, on the other hand, could barely conceal my rage. How could people be this shameless? " Do you remember the address? Where is Millie's apartment?" I asked in a dry tone, and John nodded. " Sure, it is saved in my GPS, but why do you need it?" My friend gave me a suspicious look. He knew me too well. In the past, I did a few things I was not proud of, pushed by my anger. Maybe he feared I would burn the whole place to the ground, but I was never this drastic. " I want you to find out everything about the people that live there now. It looks like Millie's family is a littl

Millie's POV John brought me back to Alex's apartment, and I could not find myself a place, so for the first hour, I was pacing around the room, thinking about the previous disaster. All my belongings were gone. I could imagine the smug smiles on Sandra's and Deborah's faces when they were destroying them. I was left with nothing. How am I supposed to look for work if I have no single suitable piece of clothes to attend any potential interview? I could not buy any as my wallet was empty. My family really put a lot of effort into taking me down, and it looked like they succeeded. I would have to ask Gabrielle for help and borrow some clothes from her. My friend will surely give me some unless her charming boyfriend won't stop her. My stomach grumbled loudly. Thanks to my family, I lost my appetite, but now my body begged for some nutrition. I rushed to the kitchen, thinking about what to prepare to eat. I scanned all the cupboards and fridge, and they were loaded. I found f

Alexander's POV When Millie disappeared behind closed doors, my head was buzzing. What the hell was I thinking? She called me her husband, and I played along. I even kissed that girl. What was she feeling right now? I had to fix it as soon as possible. I turned my attention back to the person responsible for this whole mess. Carmen. " I told you once that we were done. How dare you to show up at my place wearing this," I hissed, pointing out to her ridiculous outfit. " I thought we could work on our relationship," Carmen replied, fixing her coat, but I only rolled my eyes. " There was no relationship. We had an agreement. It was fun and nothing else," I offered her a dry response. " It is because of her?" Carmen raised her voice. " It has nothing to do with her. You crossed the boundary," I answered immediately. I should go and check on Millie, but instead, I was wasting my time here. " Then she is not important to you, is she? We can go back to how it was. Just fun

Millie's POV I still could not believe how Alexander convinced me to take his card. After the initial agreement, I changed my mind and tried to return it to him, but he rejected it and called me a deal breaker. He said I could use it to buy my clothes, and it was not a big deal, but I saw it differently. It was too much, way too much. Alexander allowed me to stay at his place and eat his food. I should not use his money. But I was desperate. I could not show myself in any interview, wearing the only clothes I had that were good for a grocery run but not the work hunt. I arrived at the biggest mall in our town. It had various shops that offered a wide range of prices and brands, from designer brands to some more affordable items. In the past, I would probably visit some of my favorite shops, but today, I had to think of a budget since I was not spending my own money. I chose one of the shops on the ground floor that looked promising. Through the windows, I noticed a nice

Alexander's POV I was enjoying my late breakfast when John entered my office without knocking. I would scold him for that, but my mouth was full of scrambled eggs, which I did not prefer to spit all over my desk. Instead, I gave him a look filled with disapproval. " Sorry to bother but I have a manager of one of your shops on the line. He says it is something urgent, " John smiled at me. It did not look like he was sorry at all. " Can't you deal with that? Is it not what I pay you for?" I spoke as soon as I managed to swallow my food. " He only wants to talk to you," John replied, shrugging his arms. " Fine, put him on the line," I hesitantly agreed. God help this guy if that was something trivial. John nodded and left. Seconds later, my phone rang. " Yes," I answered on a speaker since John was already back in my office. I gave him a sign to sit. " Good morning, Mr Foster. It is Ben Clark, store manager from Dress to Impress." I heard on the other line. It was

Millie's POV My anxiety hit the roof when the store manager disappeared behind the door. The girl behind the counter was eyeing me, and her look was very judgmental. Do they really think I stole this card? Unless it was Alex who stole it, and now he pushed me under the bus. I quickly dismissed that thought. Why would he do it after helping me so much? Every passing minute felt like a year. Customers filled the shop, and I felt like they already knew about my crime. What crime? Pull yourself together, girl. After what felt like an eternity, the manager came back, but his expression had changed. He looked apologetic, scared even. Yep, the card was stolen, and I was the main suspect. " I am terribly sorry for keeping you waiting," he finally spoke, taking me by surprise. " It is not a big deal," I managed to answer, instantly cursing my stupidity. No big deal. It was a huge deal. " Thank you for your understanding. I hope you understand I had to make sure ev

Alexander's POV I watched Millie, who was now blinking uncontrolled, stunned by my words. I know I acted too fast, but I did not have much choice, not after the earlier conversation. " I am really disappointed with you, son," my father's tone was cold as ice. " What are you talking about?" I asked, frantically thinking about what could be the reason for his phone call. " I thought we were close as a family, and we could trust each other, but I guess I was wrong," he spoke again without giving me a hint of what could make him so upset. My father's words were true. We were close indeed, as we kept no secrets from each other. Of course, in the past, as a stupid teenager, I tried to be rebellious, but this faze was long gone. Now, I had no doubts, my family would always have my back as I had theirs. " Dad, I really need some clarification here if I am going to deal with your accusations, " I said, slightly offended by his words. I could not think of anything that could

Millie's POV I stretched my arms, relaxing the muscles. The last two weeks were crazy, but it was fun craziness. I was initially reluctant when Alex offered me a position in his company, but now, I was slowly changing my mind. This place offered me more than I could expect. The projects were demanding, and I loved it. I was coming back home exhausted, but I could not be happier. Of course, at first, some of the workers were giving me side-eye, but it was nothing I hadn't experienced before. This field is male-dominated, and they often struggle with women's presence. It is even worse when the woman is in charge because what can she know. It took me a while to prove to them that I was something more than just a pretty face, and I knew my job. Since then, our work has gone smoothly. I was also glad that Brian kept his word, and most of my father's ex-employees found new jobs in his growing company. Some decided to try their luck in other fields, and I could not stop them fro

Alexander's POV " Well, that sounds promising," I smiled, listening to the report. One of the lawyers I hired told me about the progress of Millie's family case. Deborah and Sandra tried to make the judge believe they were innocent but failed after the record from Sandra's interrogation was presented. After presenting this proof, nothing they said mattered. Now, both women waited for the final verdict. I still tried to process how they could do all this because of a trust fund. It was beyond my imagination how someone could be so cruel. But, now, they would get what they deserved. I could not feel pity for them, not for what they did to my wife. " Thank you for the info. Keep me updated," I said before hanging up. My thoughts returned to my agreement with Millie. She agreed to a probation period in the company. For the next six months, she will take care of some of my projects to figure out how she feels about working together. I could not ask for more and was obliged to follo

Millie's POV I brushed my hand over Alex's bare chest. It was so lovely to be together again. We spent a lazy morning, leaving bed only to get snacks or drinks. I wished this day could last forever. " Gabrielle's physio is going great," I said, placing my head on Alex's chest and listening to his steady heartbeat. " Brian is helping her every day. They became inseparable," my husband replied, playing with my hair. He was right. Since Gabrielle was discharged from the hospital and returned to the lake house, Brian spent almost all his free time there. He enjoyed helping my friend with her therapy. Aside from that, they spent a lot of time talking, laughing, and watching movies. I could tell Gabrielle was getting attracted to Brian, even if she called it friendship. I knew she was careful after Michael's betrayal. When I cursed Gabrielle's ex-boyfriend, Alex only smiled mischievously and mumbled about karma. I only hoped that this karma would hit him hard. This man deserved not

Third-party POV **Warning-sex scene*** I thought about Gabrielle. And how lucky I was that it was over. This accident was a blessing. Now, I could focus on things that really mattered. My career was blooming. The cases I worked on made me more and more respected in our circle. Everyone knew I was fearless, always ready to fight until the blood was drawn, no matter whose blood it was. I turned around to look at the woman peacefully sleeping by my side. She was a stunning beauty and had a position that could help me a lot in the future. I moved my hand across her full breast and squeezed her nip*ple, which hardened under my touch. My di*k responded to that immediately. She was a great lover, always willing to fulfil my needs. No wonder when her husband was too busy to appreciate what he had. I could use that instead. " Hmm...," Monic mumbles softly. " Ready for more? " With you, I am always ready. How much time do we have left?" Monic glanced at the fancy clock hanging

Millie's POVI watched as Gabrielle sighed, preparing for another physio session. It had been two weeks since she started, but there had been no results. " Do I really have to go there? After each session, I feel exhausted but there is no improvement, " she whined as I helped her to dress. It became our daily routine, and I could only roll my eyes when she was not looking. We both knew how this conversation was going to end. " Yes, you have to go. The result won't happen by themselves. If you want to walk again, you must bite your teeth and let them do their job." Gabrielle's head lowered. " What if I never walk again? What is the point of all of that? We both know this may never happen." This was the part I hated the most. I was scared that one day, my friend would lose her whole hope and give up. " It will happen," I whispered, hoping my voice would not break. " How can you be so sure about that?" Gabrielle looked me straight in the eyes. " I do not know!" My voice betrayed me

Third-party POV" Is it all you got?" Deborah Brown leaned in her chair and smiled. " Is this not enough?" I replied, mimicking her movements. " You show me a video where I walk with my daughter. Since when has that been enough to keep me here? I thought you were a professional. I feel disappointed." My hands balled, but I confined my anger quickly. It was not my first rodeo, and I dealt with people like her all the time. " Do not spoil everything. I am just warming up." I pressed the button, and another video started. This time, it was a recording from the parking lot. "Does it look familiar?" Deborah Brown glanced at the screen, but her face remained emotionless. " Seriously? This one is even better than the last one. Some people in masks and a random car." I smiled gently. This was going to be interesting. " The car is not just a random car. It belongs to Millicent Brown. Isn't she, by any chance, your stepdaughter?" Mrs Brown shrugged her arms. " Maybe. What does that have

Alexander's POVI ran into Adam's office practically but couldn't care less. Nothing else mattered since he told me there was a chance to find out who had damaged my wife's car. " Someone is eager to discover the truth," Chief Cleaveland greeted me with a soft smile, utterly unfazed by my intrusion." Did you find anything?" I asked, shaking his hand. " Anything is not the word I would use. I think I know everything already," Adam replied, returning to his chair. I sat on mine, breathing deeply. " Out of form?" he joked, but I could only think about what he had discovered, so I raised my eyebrow. " Okay, okay, jokes aside," Adam said, fixing his glasses on his nose and turning his attention to the computer on his desk. " It took me a while to put my hands on the record from the carpark. The owner of the building was pretty adamant about keeping them secret." " Was he involved?" I asked, surprised. What could this person have against Millie? " No, I think he is just against police

Third-party POV" It is over. We ran out of money. Any day now, people will start banging at our doors, asking about their paychecks. I can pay them this month, but then nothing will be left for us."I looked at my husband. This man was supposed to be my ticket to a comfortable, luxurious life, but everything has gone downhill. It was not how I imagined my life after years of poverty. " Is there nothing you can do?" I asked, fixing my gold bracelet. I have always loved jewellery and promised myself that one day I would have tons of it. And I kept my promise. Brown has been spoiling me with it since we met, and I was not ready to give up on that. "There is nothing we can do. I do not have new projects, and without them, there will be no income. I am sure you understand that!" His voice rose, and my eyes darkened. I did not like how he said 'we'. There was no 'we' until he got back on his feet, but I was not going to tell him that now. For now, he had to believe I was still the same l

Millie's POVTwo weeks passed in a blur, but it was finally that day. Gabrielle would be discharged from the hospital. I could not hide my excitement, even if my friend were nothing like her old self. No matter how much I tried, Gabrielle seemed distant and quiet. The smile barely showed on her lips, and my heart was breaking seeing her like this. " Ladies, are you ready?" Alex came into the room after I helped Gabrielle dress up. I was happy that she had let me in this much. " I think we have everything sorted," I replied, smiling at my friend. She forced a smile, but it did not look sincere. " Where are we going?" Gabi asked in a quiet voice. " That is a surprise," Alex said with a mischievous smile. " I promise you will like it."I heard about this surprise for last week but had no idea what it was, as Alex said nothing to me. He has been very secretive, disappearing for long hours. He promised me it was nothing bad, and I decided to trust him. " Very well. Then we should mov
