Shattered Trust: The Revenge of a Billionaire's Ex-Wife Chapter 46: Please, Nico!
At Celine's MansionCalvin's cries echoed throughout the mansion. The boy rolled on the living room floor, beating the carpet with his hands while crying loudly. His face reddened, the tears continued to flow non-stop. "I want Daddy! Take me to Daddy!" cried Calvin, his voice hoarse from crying so much. Celine stood by the stairs, clutching her throbbing temples. Her eyes looked tired, her hair a little messy. She looked at her son with a mixture of anger, frustration, and... helplessness. "Calvin, Mommy told you. Daddy is not someone you can trust. He can't give you a good life!" Celine tried to calm herself down, though her tone remained firm. However, Calvin's crying grew louder. The boy looked at his mother with eyes full of anger and hurt. "Daddy loves me! Daddy never yells at me like Mommy!" The words were like a hard slap to Celine. Her breath caught. She tried to approach Calvin, kneeling before him carefully. "Honey... listen to Mommy. Daddy's not a bad person, but

In a Luxury RestaurantGabriel, the man who would become Celine's husband tomorrow, sat at a corner table with a young woman in a red dress. They were chuckling, talking in low voices, as if they were hiding something. Nicolas, who was delivering documents for an odd job in the same building, accidentally saw Gabriel from a distance. At first, Nicolas only intended to ignore, but when he saw Gabriel touching the woman's hand intimately, he felt something was wrong. Nicolas decided to come closer, hiding behind a large curtain. "Honey, are you sure she's not suspicious?" the woman asked, her voice soft but full of sarcasm. Gabriel chuckled. "Celine is too busy taking care of the kids and the family business. Besides, she trusts me. The important thing is that I marry her tomorrow, and everything will be fine after that." The woman squinted. "Smooth how do you mean?" Gabriel leaned in, speaking more softly. However, Nicolas could still hear clearly. "Once I have full access to

The afternoon sky was dark when Celine came out of her office. Her heart was still heavy after canceling her wedding to Gabriel. She walked towards her car parked on the side of the road, unaware that a black car was slowly approaching from behind. Nicolas, who happened to be passing by, saw the figure. He felt there was something strange about the black car. Its speed increased slowly, and it was heading straight towards Celine. "Celine! Be careful!" shouted Nicolas, running with all his might. Celine turned her head with a confused look, but it was too late. The car was speeding away, just a few meters away from her body. In an instant, Nicolas pushed Celine to the side of the sidewalk, his own body bouncing onto the road. Celine screamed, her body falling to the edge of the sidewalk. Her head hit hard, and her vision began to blur. The black car sped off without stopping. At the hospitalThe hospital room was silent except for the sound of the monitor that kept beeping,

Devano sat in front of his laptop in the corner of the waiting room. His face was serious, his fingers dancing over the keyboard. He had collected some evidence, but not enough to ensure Gabriel could be arrested. On the other side, Nicolas stood up while watching Calvin who was drawing in his little book. "Devano, do we have enough evidence?" asked Nicolas, his tone anxious yet hopeful. Devano sighed, staring at the laptop screen with a tired look. "Not yet. Gabriel is cunning. Even though I have recordings of his conversations with his henchmen, it's still not strong enough in court." Nicolas clenched his fists, frustrated. "So, what else do we need? That man almost killed Celine. He can't get away with it." "I'm trying to trace the flow of money he used to rent that car. If we can prove that the transaction came from his account, then we have a stronger case," Devano explained. Nicolas nodded, though his mind was not at ease. "Hurry up. I don't want him to have a chance t

Nicolas stood in front of a large board full of photos, notes, and maps. Next to him, Devano was busy talking to a detective. "Gabriel can't get away again," Nicolas said in a firm tone. "We have all the evidence we need. We just need to catch him." The detective nodded, indicating their plan. "We've deployed teams to the three locations we suspect. In the afternoon, Nicolas stood in front of the desk, his face tense. In his hand was the latest report on Gabriel's escape to the Philippines. Across from him, Devano looked equally agitated, pacing the room with his cell phone in hand. "So that's it? We let him escape?" Nicolas' voice was full of pressure. "We did our best," Devano replied, trying to calm him down, though he was also disappointed inside. "The police here are limited. Gabriel must have planned everything. He has connections, Nicolas." "But I can't accept this! Celine is still in a coma, Calvin cries every night for his mother, and that bastard is enjoying his

Two days later, in the ICU roomNicolas sat on a plastic chair. His eyes were fixed on Celine's drooping hands by her bedside. Next to her, Calvin drew something in his little book, occasionally looking up at his mother with a hopeful face. "Daddy," Calvin broke the silence, pointing at the drawing he had just finished. "This is me, Mommy, and you. We're playing in the park." Nicolas smiled a little, though his heart was heavy. "Nice drawing, Calvin. Mommy will like it when she sees it." "But when will Mommy wake up?" Calvin asked, his voice hoarse as if he was holding back tears. Nicolas didn't answer right away. He grasped Calvin's small hand, trying to provide a sense of security. "We have to be patient, son. Mommy is struggling to wake up. You know, Mommy is a strong woman." Suddenly, the fingers of Celine's hand that Nicolas was holding moved. At first glance, he thought it was just his imagination, but the movement happened again, this time more clearly. "Calvin! Loo

The sunlight coming through the window curtains slowly woke Celine's consciousness. Her eyelids moved slowly before finally opening. Her vision blurred for a moment, but then caught the shadow of Nico sitting beside her bed. "Celine?" Nico called out softly, noticing the change on her face. "You're awake?" Celine blinked a few times, adjusting her gaze. The first look she gave Nico was neither grateful nor relieved, but cold and full of tension. "What are you doing here?" her voice was hoarse, almost a whisper. Nico was silent for a moment, trying to swallow the pain that came with the question. "I... I just wanted to make sure you were okay." Before Nico could continue, Calvin's small voice broke the silence. "Mommy! Mommy's awake!" Calvin ran over to the bed, hugging his mother's arm tightly. His face was beaming with happiness. "Mommy, I really miss you! Daddy and I wait for Mommy to wake up every day." Celine looked at Calvin and smiled slightly. However, the smile f

That morning at the hospitalNico stood at the door of the hospital room with a face full of doubt. His suitcase was already in the car, the plane ticket was in his hand. It was only a matter of time before he left to leave everything behind, including Celine and Calvin. But there was something he had to do first. He knocked lightly on the door, then opened it. Inside, Calvin was drawing at a small table, while Celine sat leaning back on the bed, her face looking more refreshed although her gaze was still cold. "Can I come in?" Nico asked softly, his voice almost a whisper. Celine didn't answer, just gave him a glance before looking away again. Calvin, on the other hand, immediately smiled widely. "Daddy!" he exclaimed happily as he jumped up from his chair and ran towards Nico. Nico lifted the boy into his arms, kissing his forehead gently. "Hi, Calvin. Did you eat breakfast?" "I did, Daddy," Calvin replied excitedly. "But why has Daddy been absent for so long? I miss you!"

Nico walked into the mansion, his steps heavy. Ever since he left Celine's office, his heart was completely broken. Celine, his wife, whom he used to love so much, was now so cold and distant. Nico felt very disappointed, and there was a feeling that he could no longer put up with all this. He headed to his bedroom, opened his closet, and started packing his things. Maybe it was time for him to leave, to find peace elsewhere. She didn't know what was really going on, but one thing was for sure: she couldn't afford to stay in a relationship that was becoming increasingly strained. "Why does it have to be like this?" she whispered softly, staring at the pile of clothes she was putting into the suitcase. Each item he put into the suitcase felt heavier and heavier, like a big decision he had to make.Suddenly the door sounded, and Calvin appeared in the doorway, a worried look on his face. "Daddy, Daddy, where are you going? Why are you packing?" Nico turned his head and smiled a li

After meeting Celine, Bryan immediately went to see Elissa. Bryan sat casually in a quiet corner of the cafe, sipping his coffee with a satisfied expression. Soon, Elissa arrived wearing sunglasses and a long coat. She sat in front of Bryan and took off her sunglasses, revealing a sly smile. "How are you, Elissa?" Bryan opened the conversation, casting a quick glance at the woman. Elissa leaned back in her chair haughtily. "Excellent. I have good news for you," she said as she waved to the waiter, ordering a drink. Bryan raised one eyebrow. "Oh? I like good news. Tell me." Elissa smiled with satisfaction. "Celine and Nico are in pretty bad shape right now. I managed to get Celine to misunderstand me. She sees me and Nico in a 'misleading' position. The result? Celine got cold feet and walked away from Nico." Bryan gave a small chuckle, then nodded in satisfaction. "Well done, Elissa. You're really sneaky." Elissa shrugged her shoulders. "I just did what needed to be done.

Chapter 99After dropping Calvin off at school, Celine immediately rushed to the company. It didn't take long before she arrived at her company.However, Celine had just stepped into her office when Devano, her assistant, came in with a panicked face while carrying some files. "Mrs. Celine, there's a big problem," Devano said with a slight gasp. Celine let out a long breath, trying to calm herself down. Her morning had started with tension with Nico, and now there was another problem. "What problem?" "The company's stock dropped five percent," Devano said as he handed over the financial report. "And this is no ordinary drop. There are indications of hacking, someone may have sold a large amount of shares in a suspicious manner." Celine's eyes narrowed sharply. "Who is the culprit?" "We're still investigating," Devano replied, "But that's not all, Mrs. Celine. There's another problem." Celine straightened her back. "What other problems?" "There are allegations of misuse o

Nico arrived at the mansion with slightly irregular breathing. He hadn't even changed his clothes, still wearing a slightly wrinkled shirt. He went straight to the main room, hoping Celine hadn't woken up yet. However, his hopes were dashed when he saw Celine already standing in front of the mirror, wearing a neat blazer, smoothing her makeup with a flat expression. Celine stared at her reflection, as if she didn't care that Nico had just come home. "Celine..." Nico's voice was full of caution. Celine remained silent, only taking her handbag and checking her cell phone. Nico approached, then said in a low tone, "I can explain." Celine finally turned around, looking at him with a faint smile-a smile that looked more like mockery. "Explain what?" Nico sighed. "Last night, Elissa called me. She said she was kidnapped. I panicked and went straight to rescue her." Celine looked at him expressionlessly. Nico continued, "I fought with those three jerks. They almost hurt her

Three o'clockCeline squirmed softly, her body still feeling tired after a warm night with Nico. But when her hand felt the side of the bed, where Nico should have been, there was only the coldness of empty sheets. Her brow furrowed. "Nico?" she muttered half-consciously. She looked at the digital clock on the bedside table. Three o'clock in the morning. Why wasn't Nico there? Where had he gone? A bad feeling started to come over her. She got up, grabbed her cell phone on the table, and immediately made a video call to Nico's number. The dial tone sounded several times. There was no answer. Celine began to get nervous. But just as she was about to hang up, the call suddenly connected. Elissa, who had been waiting for this moment, immediately went into action. With her eyes half closed, she pretended to wake up and picked up the call. She had arranged her position in such a way, lying next to Nico who was still asleep. He blinked a few times, pretending not to realize

Elissa sat on the cold floor, her hands tied behind a rickety old chair. Her tears flowed freely, her head bowed, her body trembling with fear. Her clothes were rumpled, her cheeks wet with tears. Three men stood in front of her with gazes full of pleasure, like hungry wolves eyeing their prey. "Damn, she finally came..." One of the men glanced at his watch with a grin. Before long, the sound of footsteps echoed in the stuffy, narrow hallway. The rusty metal door opened with a bang, and there, stood Nico with a face full of anger. Nico's eyes turned red at Elissa's sorry state. His jaw hardened, his hands clenched into fists. "Let her go," Nico's voice was low, but threatening. The tallest man stepped forward, grinning. "Oh? So you really came? I didn't expect you to be this brave." Nico gave him a sharp look. "I don't want to beat around the bush. What do you want?" The man chuckled. "It's simple. I'm Elissa's ex. And she owes me a huge debt. So, if you want her free,

Celine smiled a little when she felt the warmth of Nico's body behind her. Nico's hands wrapped around her waist, pulling her closer. "Nico, we're in a public place," Celine whispered as she turned to her husband. Nico just chuckled softly, then kissed Celine's nape once more. "So what, I just want to spoil my wife," he replied casually. Celine sighed, but her cheeks were flushed. Although they had been married for a long time, sometimes Nico's suddenly romantic attitude still made her nervous. In the distance, Calvin ran around chasing his high-flying kite. "Mommy! Daddy! Look! My kite is really high!" he exclaimed excitedly. Celine smiled proudly. "Yes, sweetheart! You did great!" Nico also gave a thumbs up. "Very cool, Calvin! If the kite falls, Daddy will help you fix it, okay?" Calvin laughed happily and refocused on his kite. Celine leaned her head against Nico's chest. "I love moments like this," she murmured. Nico tightened his embrace. "Me too. That's why I

Nico pulled Celine into a hug, his arms wrapped tightly around his wife's waist. "You know," he whispered in Celine's ear, his voice husky and full of teasing, "ever since we got together, I can't stop missing you." Celine chuckled, trying to move away, but Nico didn't let her. "We have to wake Calvin up, honey," Celine said, touching her husband's cheek. Nico sighed, looking deeply into Celine's eyes before finally kissing her lips again, this time more deeply. Celine responded just as intensely, her hands going up to Nico's neck, burying her fingers in her husband's hair. After a few moments, Celine broke the kiss with a slight gasp. "You really have no intention of waking Calvin up?" she asked with a seductive smile. Nico shrugged. "That boy can sleep for another five minutes, right?" Celine shook her head with a smile. "Nope. He has school, remember?" Nico sighed softly and then pulled Celine's hand. "Okay, okay. Let's go wake up our little prince." They walked hand

In a quiet cafe, Elissa sat across from Bryan. The woman sipped her coffee quietly before finally looking at the man in front of her seriously. "I know you haven't given up," Elissa said as she leaned back in the chair. Bryan raised his eyebrows. "Haven't given up on what?" Elissa chuckled. "Don't pretend, Bryan. I know you still want to have Celine. Unfortunately, now she's back with Nico." Bryan let out a long sigh, his expression turning sour. "Yes, I really don't like seeing them together again. I've tried to get close to Celine, but in the end she still chose Nico. That sucks." Elissa leaned forward. "I don't like seeing them together either. I love Nico, Bryan. And I'm sure you still want Celine." Bryan smiled slightly. "So, you're saying we work together?" Elissa nodded firmly. "Exactly. We have to get Nico and Celine to split up. They've been playing with our feelings for too long. I'm not going to let Celine just win." Bryan fiddled with the small spoon in his
