The Billonaires’s marital crisis Chapter 85 : A Final Offer
The next morning, Fabio sat at his desk, staring at the swirling steam rising from his untouched cup of coffee. His mind was a whirlwind of thoughts, replaying the tense conversation with his father. Duncan had made it clear—walking away wouldn’t be simple, and the Mexicans weren’t known for letting anyone go without a fight. Still, Fabio couldn’t shake the feeling that there had to be a way out without dragging his family deeper into the darkness.Sophia’s laughter from the living room echoed faintly through the walls, reminding him of the life he was protecting. He’d made a promise to her and their unborn child, and he wasn’t going to break it. But the reality of the situation weighed heavily on him.His phone buzzed on the desk, pulling him out of his thoughts. He looked at the screen, his stomach twisting when he saw the name: **Santos**.Fabio hesitated for a moment before answering. “Santos.”“Mateo,” Santos’ voice oozed through the line, a mix of familiarity and menace. “I’ve b
The Billonaires’s marital crisis Chapter 86 : The Final Reckoning
Months had passed, and Sophia’s pregnancy was moving along smoothly. She was now four months in, glowing with the radiance of motherhood. The house was filled with excitement, baby name books scattered around, and ultrasound photos hung on the fridge. Sophia had begun to feel the tiny flutter of life growing inside her, and every evening, Fabio would sit beside her, talking softly to her belly as if he could already communicate with their unborn child.But Fabio’s mind was a split battlefield. While his heart overflowed with love and anticipation for their baby, a growing sense of dread lurked in the background. He had done everything to keep Sophia in the dark about his dealings with the Mexican cartel, but the pressure was mounting. He had agreed to one last job to buy his freedom, but it had taken months for the hammer to fall. Now, the wait was over.The Mexicans had made contact. And they weren’t asking—they were demanding. It was time for the biggest shipment Fabio had ever hand
The Billonaires’s marital crisis Chapter 87 : Drawing the Line
The air around Fabio crackled with tension. The dim lights of the docks cast eerie shadows on the water, and the distant wail of sirens began to fade into the night. But it was the presence of Santos and his armed men that made Fabio’s pulse thunder in his ears. There was no more room to run. No more room for deception or games. He had to face the truth head-on.Santos stood a few feet away, his gun lazily hanging by his side, but the sneer on his face made it clear—he was in control. Or so he thought.Fabio felt Felix’s gaze burning into him from beside the crates, waiting for a signal, waiting for something. His mind raced through the many paths this could take, but every road ended in the same place. It was time to draw the line. Time to stand up to Santos, to the cartel, to the life he had unwittingly inherited.“I’m done,” Fabio said, his voice low but firm. He straightened, standing tall as he met Santos’ gaze. “This was my last job.”Santos chuckled, a cruel sound that echoed o
The Billonaires’s marital crisis Chapter 88 : The Double Game
Weeks had slipped by like shadows at twilight, their passing marked only by the gentle changes in the landscape outside Fabio’s window. Inside the walls of his home, the atmosphere had become one of serenity, an oasis of calm amid the chaos brewing just outside. Fabio had made a concerted effort to be present for Sophia, to soothe her worries and immerse himself in the joy of their impending parenthood.The sound of Sophia’s laughter, a rare and precious gift these days, echoed through the house. She had taken to decorating the nursery, her joy untainted by the storm Fabio could feel building just beyond the horizon. Fabio admired her resilience, but he knew he couldn’t keep the truth from her forever.As he watched her from the doorway, a pang of guilt twisted in his chest. Sophia was blissfully unaware of the treacherous path Fabio was navigating. She believed he was dedicating himself entirely to their family, and in a way, he was—but not without a hidden agenda. His plan to betray
The Billonaires’s marital crisis Chapter 89 : The Gamble
The night was electric, filled with an ominous tension as Fabio stood at the edge of the deserted warehouse. His breath misted in the chilly air, and the city's distant lights flickered like tiny stars against the dark sky. This was the night that would determine his fate—the culmination of weeks of planning and deceit.Inside the warehouse, a large shipment of illicit goods was due to arrive. Santos, the ruthless Mexican cartel boss, would be overseeing the operation himself. This was the moment Fabio had been preparing for—a chance to strike at the heart of the cartel and end his association with them once and for all.Fabio’s hands trembled slightly as he adjusted his tactical gear, checking the weapons and equipment one last time. His team, a group of loyal operatives who had been instrumental in his plan, was scattered around the warehouse, hidden and ready. Felix stood beside him, his face set with grim determination.“Are we ready?” Fabio asked, his voice low and steady.Felix
The Billonaires’s marital crisis Chapter 90 : A Fragile Peace
After weeks of relentless tension, Fabio and Sophia finally found themselves in a brief but welcome moment of peace. The chaos that had marked the beginning of their marriage now seemed a distant memory. Life was returning to a more predictable rhythm, and the future they once envisioned was beginning to take shape. With Sophia now four months pregnant, her belly showing the slightest curve, the excitement and anticipation of parenthood filled their days.Fabio’s attention to Sophia became unwavering. His every thought revolved around her and their unborn child. He had become more attentive and nurturing, always present, always supportive. If Sophia craved something at midnight, Fabio would be out the door without hesitation, driving to fetch her favorite snack or remedy her newest craving. Their love, once marred by hidden secrets and the pressures of their pasts, was beginning to bloom in a way Sophia had always hoped for. It was a time of tenderness, where they leaned on each other
The Billonaires’s marital crisis Chapter 91 : Felix’s Unexpected Return
The air was heavy with the scent of fresh coffee and the hum of the city outside, as Fabio sat in his office, fingers tapping absentmindedly on the mahogany desk. He stared at his phone, waiting for a message that hadn’t yet come, his mind a whirlwind of worry and anticipation. The cartel’s looming threat still hovered over his head like a dark cloud, and no matter how much he tried to shield Sophia from it, the stress was taking its toll. He had managed to keep their marriage intact by burying the danger deep inside, but it was only a matter of time before the past caught up to him.Suddenly, a knock echoed on his office door, pulling Fabio from his thoughts. He wasn’t expecting anyone—at least not now. His brow furrowed as he called out, "Come in."The door opened, and to his shock, Felix walked in, his face grim and his eyes scanning the room as if expecting someone to jump out of the shadows. Fabio stood up, surprised by the sudden appearance of his younger brother, who had been l
The Billonaires’s marital crisis Chapter 92 : Secrets Unraveled
Sophia sat at the kitchen table, stirring her tea absentmindedly. The aroma of chamomile filled the room, yet it did little to calm the unease that had settled in her stomach. Over the past few weeks, she had noticed the distance growing between her and Fabio. He was home physically, but his mind seemed miles away, always distracted, lost in thoughts he refused to share. His reassurances no longer comforted her as they once did. The growing knot of doubt in her chest was becoming impossible to ignore.As she watched the steam rise from her mug, Sophia replayed the events of the past few months in her mind. Fabio had changed, subtly at first, but now it was impossible to overlook. She had chalked it up to the stress of preparing for their baby’s arrival, but now she wasn’t so sure. The late nights at the office, the vague explanations, the phone calls he always took in the other room—it all added up to something more than just work. With a sigh, Sophia placed the mug down, her hand un
