The Billionaire's Betrayal: A love Child CHAPTER 25
Miguel's POVI stood in front of the Madrileno family's gangster territory, where the name was inscribed on a sign. Adrian and I were old acquaintances of the leader, but we hadn't been in contact with him for a long time.I ran my fingers through my hair as I recalled the discussion with Adrian the previous night when we decided on this course of action."Adrian, my dad is sick. He was poisoned by his trusted advisor, who is now the acting CEO of his company" I had disclosed to him.He had scolded me, saying, "Aren't you the heir of your father's company? It would be best if you were the one in that seat. You can't keep running away from your responsibilities forever. You need to take over the company and have your revenge.""That's why I returned to Spain, but I need your help." I had pleaded.Nobody knew my father had a child with another woman. My mother had died during childbirth, and I was raised outside of the family, but with my father's support and care. He didn't discard me d

Natalia's POVThreatening Gabriel was the right thing to do. I just couldn't imagine him divorcing me and being with my sister. The thought alone made my blood boil.Gabriel was already gone by the time I woke up. He must have wanted to avoid me after the previous night, but he wouldn't for long.A naughty thought popped into my head. I took a sip of my coffee and stood up from the dining table. With a new goal in mind, I trotted up the stairs and into my room.I was still in my night dress, so I pulled it off and stepped into the bathroom. I turned the shower faucet to make the water warm before letting it trickle down my body.I turned to take a look at the mirror on the wall and noticed the hickeys that gave me away. It made me cringe in disgust. I wanted to get it off my body so I reached out for a sponge and scrubbed my skin vigorously until it turned red. I wanted to wash away all the marks and reminders of Mad from my body.My scrubbing seemed to achieve little to nothing except

Adrian's POVThe silence in the room was awkward from the moment I asked Pedro a question. He had a weird expression on his face as he looked at me. Suddenly, he clutched his stomach and released a thunderous laughter that shook the room.A few seconds later after he had had a good laugh, he wiped away the tears welling up in his eyes and folded his arms, crossing his legs on the sofa."I must say, Mr. Ortega, you have a great sense of humor," Pedro uttered with sarcasm."What makes you think so?" I asked with the same tone, frequently glancing at Joyce to see if she was fine.Pedro chuckled slightly and sighed. "Everyone knows that whore didn't give the old man a child before dying from that miserable illness. I can see you are pulling out all the tricks from your hat to distract me and stall for time for you and your lover here, then you've disappointingly fallen short of the expectations."A faint smirk tugged at the corners of my mouth as his words kept replaying in my mind. It was
The Billionaire's Betrayal: A love Child CHAPTER 28
Joyce's POVEverything felt off the moment we stepped into BianCo Innovation. I mean, I could not deny the thick, undeniable, and palpable tension that hung in the air. Tension so thick you could slice through it. The energy of the place was very unsettling. It was overwhelming, almost suffocating but Adrian's voice had somehow managed to soothe and calm my nerves.I wasn’t so naive to think things wouldn’t get a bit messy, judging from the fake smiles and shifty looks. I, however, never expected to be plunged into this head-on. This had turned into mad chaos; a debacle and being dragged into this left me stunned.The past two years had been peaceful—just me, Rafael, and the nanny. I hadn’t asked for this mess, didn’t want to be part of it. Yet here I was, tangled in something far bigger than I ever imagined.This was not what I signed up for. When I woke up this morning, I never imagined my day would turn out this way. I just needed to get through it—then I’d take it straight to my b
The Billionaire's Betrayal: A love Child Chapter 29
Adrian's POVI was surprised by my actions when I protectively reached out to her. I couldn’t resist touching her, I had to if only to quell my worry. My heart thumped loudly, torn between guilt and worry, as I wrapped my fingers around her soft hands. I could not help but notice she looked so pale, so fragile, and it was all because of me. I silently cursed at myself for doing this to her.“I’m sorry,” I muttered, the words escaping in a soft voice I didn’t even recognize as my own.A sense of familiarity washed over me as I looked at her, stirring something deep inside, yet I couldn’t quite understand what it meant. The feeling was there, just out of reach, confusing and unsettling.The situation was getting awkward -standing there hand in hand- so I had to pull her towards the exit. We had to leave. I was determined to protect her and guarantee she got home without further distress. But just as we were about to leave the building, the police arrived and filed into the building."Ev

Madrileno's POVMy men and I were heading back to our territory. Initially, I was apprehensive when that detective was onto me, but to my utter surprise and relief, Adrian bailed me out in the nick of time. Interacting with him could be intimidating, but working hand in hand was easy."This is the last time I'm having any dealings with companies," I said, looking out the window. The image of a familiar woman flashed through my head- Joyce, the same woman Talia told me to help her get rid of. I wasn't mistaken. She looked exactly like the lady in the picture, but slightly different. Two years was more than enough for a change.Although I hadn’t decided for certain on what to do that decision would even prove more difficult now. Taking her out wasn't the problem but..."Boss," a voice jolted me out of my t thoughts."What is it, Barrio?" I questioned with total absentmindedness, refusing to get my eyes off the window."That woman...isn't she the woman in the photo? The one Natalia aske

Natalia's POVI arrived at Madrileno's den only to find out he was not in. However, I decided to wait for him, but the man at the exit refused to let me in."Leave and come back another day," He spoke rudely, which served only to piss me off. I could do nothing for fear of being beaten up. This was not my turf and I had to tread carefully. I couldn't defend myself, nor could I cry to Gabriel to help me exert revenge should anything happen here."I'm not leaving," I retorted adamantly, and we kept on arguing back and forth until Madrileno arrived.His attitude was strange and infuriating, but I still needed something from him, so I had to compromise and play along.I assumed I would have to go through the trouble of convincing him again, but he had gotten himself drunk, becoming susceptible to what I had in mind."Let me help you," I whispered seductively into his ears and pulled him towards the bed in the room. I tried unbuttoning his shirt, but the stubborn nut was still struggling.
The Billionaire's Betrayal: A love Child CHAPTER 32
Joyce's POV"Phew!" I sighed in relief as soon as I arrived at my doorstep. I scanned my surroundings making sure no one was watching me before unlocking the door and walking in."Mummy!" I heard that familiar cute voice call out to me as a patter of small feet approached. I turned just in time to catch him."My baby!!” I shrieked excitedly, snatching him up and smothering him with a thousand wet kisses. “¡Mi bebé! ¡Mi corazón! ¡Mi amor! Did you miss mommy?" I tickled him, enjoying his innocent laughter.This was a great respite from the day’s happening. Dread momentarily flickered when I imagined never having to hold my baby in my arms and feeling this innocent warmth. Suddenly, Adrian's face flashed before me, but I shook my head to erase it instantly."Yes, I mith you so much, momma," he whined, slobbering me with kisses as well.I looked around and saw Christie walking out of the kitchen. I felt a pang of guilt seeing her; she was supposed to be with her family by this time."Welco
