Marco began to reach out his hand to press the right button on the side of the door. A beep sounded, and the door opened, revealing a luxurious apartment with all modern facilities. Marco scanned his gaze in all directions, then his steps led to the second floor where Arabella's room was located. Slowly, Marco approached Arabella, who was standing near the window, seemingly absorbed in the view of the bustling city outside.

Marco walked closer and hugged Arabella from behind, -but Arabella seemed to ignore him, as if Marco wasn't there.

"Are you still angry?" Marco asked, kissing Arabella's clearly tense shoulder.

"Yes, it seems like you are still angry," Marco answered himself, tightening his embrace.

"I'm sorry," Marco said, making Arabella finally turn to look at her fiancé. For Arabella, perhaps Marco would become her ex-fiancé, because she couldn't bear to imagine Marco marrying another woman, especially if that woman was carrying Marco's child.

  • THE BILLIONAIRE'S CAPTIVE    CHAPTER 17

    Slowly, Letta began to tidy up the items one by one that she had brought. Now she was in her new apartment. Although not as spacious as Mia's, for Letta, this apartment was sufficient. Its strategic location and bustling environment made her feel comfortable. Several hours passed, and Letta finally managed to lay her body down to rest. However, suddenly someone pressed the doorbell of her apartment, startling Letta.Without a chance to see who was behind the door, Letta opened it and was surprised to see a frightening smile from the person who suddenly came to visit her on her first day of moving."Good afternoon," he greeted, and without waiting for Letta's response, he pushed Letta's apartment door and entered, surveying the room, causing Letta to clench her fists tightly."Are you not mannered?" Letta said, staring back at the tall man in front of her sharply."Are you sure you're going to live in such a cramped room like this?" he said, ignoring Letta's earlier question, making Le

    It seemed as if Letta had just closed her eyes when suddenly the doorbell of her apartment kept ringing incessantly. This forced Letta, who initially wanted to ignore the person disturbing her, to open her eyes wide, trying to gather her consciousness, and walk grumpily."Who's making such a ruckus early in the morning? Can't they stop pressing my apartment doorbell before it breaks?" Letta grumbled as she continued to walk clumsily towards the door.When the door opened, Letta truly found herself fully awake. She saw a man who had been bothering her wherever she went for the past few days."What's wrong with you? Why do you always disturb my peace? I just fell asleep a few hours ago," Letta said with her weary face, especially with the dark circles under her eyes, which clearly indicated that she had just rested her body. This, of course, was not something Marco appreciated, especially given Letta's current condition.That made Marco immediately step in and grab Letta, causing her ey

    Letta had no idea how many days it had been since the doorbell of her apartment had been ringing loudly in the early morning. Of course, Letta could already guess who the person was that had been disturbing her for the past few days. This made Letta finally ignore the sound of the bell. Despite feeling annoyed, Letta simply took a pillow to cover her face, hoping to muffle the sound of her doorbell. However, it was in vain, as the bell continued to ring incessantly. "Fine, I'll open it," Letta exclaimed in frustration. Then, she walked, stomping her feet, towards her apartment door and opened it. However, it seemed that Letta's assumption this time was wrong. Letta fell silent immediately. Previously, Letta had prepared some scathing remarks to scold the person who usually disturbed her. But this time was different, causing Letta to furrow her brow. Letta seemed very familiar with the face in front of her. "You?" Letta asked, her words trailing off slightly."Allow me to introduce mys

    An hour ago, Letta was already getting ready. She woke up early, took a shower, and had breakfast, doing it all with a beaming smile. This time, she was incredibly lucky because last night she received news that she would be interviewed for a job at one of the coffee shops she had long coveted. The distance was also not too far from her apartment, making Letta even more excited. However, all her enthusiasm suddenly faded when she opened the apartment door and someone was already in front of her."Good morning," Haris said, making Letta let out a long sigh."What again, early in the morning, you're already in front of someone else's apartment door?" Letta asked, making Haris glance at the watch on his wrist."I'm just carrying out my duties," Haris replied, reminding Letta of his earlier statement that he had been assigned by Marco to monitor everything Letta did."And as you expected, Mr. Won't accept it just like that. I have positioned two guards below and will follow you wherever y

    Occasionally, Letta glanced in the direction of two individuals who had been following her wherever she went for the past few days. They weren't overt in their surveillance, but Letta still felt uneasy knowing that her every move was being monitored. Like now, on her first day of work, Letta didn't want her mood to be affected, so she chose to ignore the two.After that, Letta walked with a broad smile. Finally, she landed a job at one of the coffee shops she had been eyeing for some time. Enjoying the aroma of coffee every morning would certainly be delightful. Dealing with customers and the hustle and bustle would be a different experience from serving passengers on an airplane, thought Letta. Finally, she arrived at the coffee shop through the side street dedicated to employees. Letta went straight to the second floor where Noah's workspace was located, attempting to knock on the door before being welcomed inside.Noah then smiled at Letta's appearance in her new uniform, which fit

    Marco immediately halted his hand's movement upon hearing the sudden news from his subordinate. "What? She's working?" exclaimed Marco, looking at Haris with an expression of displeasure."Didn't I clearly say that I didn't want her to do anything that would endanger herself? Just stay quiet in her cramped apartment, and you watch over her, that's all, but you couldn't even do that," Marco said, leaving Haris only able to nod."I apologize, Sir, but Miss Letta really can't be stopped so easily. But don't worry, I've instructed two guards to watch over Miss Letta," Haris said, making Marco sigh in frustration."Still, she's not following what I want. You should know that if I want something, you should make it happen," Marco added, making Haris apologize once again. Both of them had stubborn personalities that were difficult to contend with, causing Haris to rue his fate for being caught between them."Nevertheless, I've already threatened her with this, but it hasn't yielded results.

    Letta stopped her hand movements as she felt her phone vibrating in her trouser pocket. However, she couldn't answer the call at the moment as she was busy serving several customers who were filling the beer cafe. She glanced at the clock, which showed nine in the morning, a time when people often enjoyed their coffee. Letta chose to ignore it and focus on her work, which she had been doing for the past week."Letta, please deliver shirt number seven," called Dirly, prompting Letta to hurry and fetch the shirt and deliver it. She repeated the same task several times until her stomach suddenly cramped, making her feel slightly lightheaded. "Are you alright?" Molly asked, rubbing Letta's shoulder from behind, causing Letta to turn around."Yes, my stomach is cramping a little," Letta said, making Molly nod."You'd better take a short break. I see you've been busy even though I'm here, and Romeo, who knows what he's doing back there," Molly said again, making Letta smile."Alright," Lett

    Letta began packing her work clothes to put them in her locker before checking her belongings one by one in her bag. This time, she couldn't afford to leave her phone or wallet behind as it would inconvenience her. "Hey, are you done?" someone tapped Letta's shoulder, making her turn around and look at Molly."Yes, just a few more. I might need to check the kitchen. My task isn't to lock up the shop," Letta said, making Molly nod. Over the next two weeks, they took turns checking the store before leaving as Noah was out of town, adding to their workload. Today was Letta's turn to make sure everything was secure."Well, I'll leave now," Molly said, followed by Dirly, who also left first. Letta made sure her bag was complete, then walked to the coffee machine to ensure everything was safe before heading to the kitchen. However, Letta furrowed her brows when she saw Romeo still standing in front of the wide table apparently reserved for his use in making pastries."You're not leaving yet

    Someone in a car was observing a couple who had just entered the car, causing the observer to clench their fists."Follow their car, but don't let them notice," said the man with bright-colored eyes, making the driver nod. They kept a distance from the other car and continued to tail it."I heard his wife is pregnant and has just come out of a coma?" Jacob asked, glancing at the man next to him, a dark-skinned man who nodded."From the information I've gathered, that's correct," he replied, causing Jacob to furrow his brow."What happened to his wife? Because as far as I know, Marco would never allow his wife to be harmed in any way," Jacob said, still gazing ahead until they arrived at a large hospital, prompting Jacob's car to stop as well."I want you to keep following him. I want to know what developments you need to obtain. I need to get the key to his downfall, so that he'll comply with what I want," Jacob said, making the man nod. After that, Jacob stepped out of the car, surve

    Letta then followed every move Marco made with her. When Marco suddenly pushed Letta's body slightly, Letta leaned a little on both her arms. After that, Letta could see how Marco began to caress each of her fingers, tracing along the side of her face, down to her slender neck. Then, onto her clearly exposed shoulders. When the dress she was wearing hadn't clung perfectly, it seemed like Letta was truly being admired by Marco, making Letta only able to turn her already blushing face away. This made Marco finally reach out his hand again, pulling Letta's face close."Never turn your face away. You look truly beautiful with that blushing face," Marco said, making Letta even more unable to return her husband's gaze. Until finally, Marco pulled Letta's waist again and connected their lips, seemingly unable to get enough of kissing her. This made Letta's lips look red and swollen from his actions, but Marco didn't hold back in the slightest from playing with those sweet lips.Letta flinche

    Letta could feel his hand gradually moving up, caressing her long legs, causing her to startle as Marco suddenly pulled her and seated her on the accessory table behind her. "Is it alright for me to sit here?" Letta asked, gazing at Marco, now at eye level with her."Why not? It'll make our game easier," Marco replied, whispering right in front of her face. Letta then closed her eyes. Just hearing her husband's deep voice made her entire body react. Following that, Letta returned Marco's intense gaze. Lowering her hand, she caressed the side of Marco's neck, causing him to shut his eyes. He felt Letta's gentle touch, one he had never experienced before, not since she lost her memory.Marco could sense Letta drawing closer, still moving her fingers precisely on his nape, making him feel Letta's lips delicately and carefully pressing against his own. How the woman who now occupied his heart desired him, until Marco finally returned the kiss Letta had given. Letta untangled their lips, c

    Marco was focused on his phone screen when Letta didn't emerge from the dressing room. This made Marco glance toward the dressing room door for a moment before returning his gaze to the flat screen in front of him. He checked the schedule he had gone through this morning because he had told Pedro that he would accompany Letta to the hospital and check on the condition of the fetus in her womb.But a few minutes later, Marco redirected his gaze. Letta seemed to have been in the dressing room for too long. This prompted Marco to get up from his seat and walk over to check on Letta. He heard slow footsteps as he entered the dressing room.However, Marco's steps halted when he saw clothes scattered all over their accessory chest. Letta, wearing only her undergarments, was taking out one piece of clothing after another from the glass wardrobe. "Why?" Marco asked, causing Letta to pause and smile."Sorry, have you been waiting too long for me? I'm looking for an outfit," Letta said, causing

    Letta was slightly startled as she felt something soft at the nape of her neck. The way Marco slowly seduced her made Letta close her eyes, feeling every move that Marco was making. Eventually, Marco straightened up, gazing at Letta with a blush on her face, which made Marco smile. His wife looked so beautiful.Then, Marco pulled Letta closer again, their lips meeting once more, and Letta could only reciprocate what Marco was giving her. His tongue danced with hers at a faster pace, yet Letta could still feel the tenderness that Marco was giving. Suddenly, Letta felt her body being lifted as Marco swiftly picked her up. Letta immediately reached for Marco's neck, balancing her height with her husband's. She caressed his firm jaw without detaching their lips as Marco carried her slowly. Letta's body temperature seemed to rise even higher, as if she was burning, while Marco played with her lips.As they reached the side of the bed, Marco released their kiss and gently laid Letta down on

    Marco then approached, seeing Letta now turning her face away."Why?" Marco asked, making Letta not even glance at him."It's nothing, I think I'll just go to bed directly," Letta said, but her steps halted when Marco immediately blocked her and pulled her in gently. This caused her to fall into Marco's embrace. It made her eyes widen when her hands touched his broad chest, which was now clearly visible in front of her, still cool. It made Letta look up at Marco, who was looking at her with a questioning gaze."Why?" Marco asked softly, making Letta shake her head again."Did you take a cold shower?" Letta asked, realizing how cold Marco's skin felt when it touched hers."Yes, I usually take cold showers," Marco said, making Letta find it hard to swallow her own saliva. It felt difficult to just look at Marco, who continued to stare at her intently, before Letta finally pushed Marco's body slightly. "Oh, no wonder you refused me to prepare warm water earlier," Letta said, making Marco

    Marco then immediately stopped his car right in front of the large house. He entered and met Desi."Where is Letta? Is she asleep already?" Marco asked, making Desi nod."Miss is still awake, Sir," Desi replied, making Marco furrow his brow."Did she ask about me?" Marco asked again."This afternoon, after Miss woke up from her nap, she immediately asked about you and when you usually come home. I just answered that you're irregular coming back to this house due to your busy schedule. Until the evening, Miss was still waiting, and occasionally strolled in the garden. Even a few minutes ago, when I brought warm water for Miss, she still asked about your return,” Desi said, making Marco nod his head."Alright, then I will go to meet her immediately," Marco said, quickly climbing the stairs to go to their room. Slowly, Marco reached out his hand and saw Letta sitting on the balcony. Marco furrowed his brow and immediately walked quickly. Even though it was past 10:00 p.m., Letta was sitt

    Marco then chose to walk closer to the two women who were still giving each other sharp glances. Marco looked at Lusi, who was now shaking her dress, which appeared to be wet. After that, he looked at the blonde girl, who turned out to be named Miti."Follow me to the second floor," Marco said, not wanting to draw attention from other patrons, making Miti look annoyed as she glanced at Lusi, who returned the same look. Marco had gone up to the floor where not many people could be, especially now that he was taking them to a place reserved solely for himself, escorted by Pedro. Miti and Lusi were now sitting directly in front of Marco. "So, what kind of altercation has caused such a commotion in my club?" Marco said again."She deliberately poured her drink on my dress first," Lusi said, making Miti look at her with a disagreeing look."Oh come on, it was an accident. You were just flaunting your dress too much. You're just overreacting," Miti said, making Marco raise his hand again."

    "They fell silent as Pedro led them to one of the clubs that still remained Marco's personal asset. There was no Jovanka's name behind it, solely because of Marco's desire to have a club he could visit whenever he wanted."You can drop me off if you feel uncomfortable," Lusi suddenly said, sitting right next to Marco, making him glance at her momentarily. It turned out Lusi was more outspoken than he had previously thought. She was like a compliant cat in front of her father, Marco thought, just tugging at the corner of his lip."It's fine, I'm okay. Actually, the problem lies with you if you feel uncomfortable," Marco said, finally making Lusi turn slightly behind. There were two black cars still following them before she leaned back again and let out a long sigh. She seemed uneasy, especially when Lusi started taking off her high heels, leaving her feet bare."Sorry for my rudeness, but my feet are very sore. Wearing these high heels makes my feet tired, even just looking at them,"
