The contract marriage: falling for a billionaire again Because I love you
Chapter 38Michael's POV"Jason..." I called out, my voice breaking as I watched him take the empty space beside Emma. My heart shattered as the truth finally hit me - Jason had betrayed me. Had Ambrose perhaps manipulated him into helping him search for Maggie?"Isn't this Jason Anderson, Michael's secretary?" Grandpa asked, averting his gaze to my side as I remained too stunned to utter a word. My gaze rested on Jason's expression, but I couldn't decipher his emotions. Had he been stabbing me in the back all along, or was he being threatened? I had faith in Jason; he would never hurt me."So, young man, why are you here? What do you have for us?" Grandpa asked, his eyes narrowing slightly. Freya and I locked eyes for a moment, and she gave me an encouraging nod, which I reciprocated. For now, I realized that Freya, the strange woman I had once rejected, was the only one I could trust."Grandpa, Michael turned his company into a mess," Ambrose explained, "and as I speak, these invest

Chapter 39Freya's POVI couldn't hold back my emotions anymore. Michael couldn't face this alone, and it was time I did something for him. We needed to uncover Ambrose's weakness; he had gone too far this time. But Michael had just asked me to leave, and then...."What did you just say, Freya Rogers?" Michael asked, his voice filled with surprise and a hint of impatience. I felt a flush rise to my cheeks, embarrassed by my impulsive confession."And what exactly do you know about love?" Michael snapped, his eyes flashing with pain and anger. "Just because we're playing a game doesn't mean we're in love. You don't know anything... nothing." His words cut deep, but I stood my groun, not faltering."You're wrong," I said, my voice coming out quietly. "I may not have had a beautiful love story, but one thing I know about love is that you'll always be there for each other, sharing each other's pain." Michael shook his head, like he wasn't agreeing with my words."That's not love," he sai

Chapter 40 Freya's POVI stared deeply into Jason's message, and a part of me felt relieved that he was still with us. Probably, he had a reason for his actions. But from now on, I wouldn't take anything lightly.Without changing my clothes, I decided to head to the office. There were things I needed to do, especially since Micahel had been feeling down. Not long after, I arrived at the office and saw Ruby, whose face was filled with surprise and shock."Mrs. Smith, you shouldn't have stressed yourself," she said, revealing a forced smile. I reciprocated the smile, trying to appear calm. She shouldn't know what I was up to. That I'd find out she was the spy."Yeah, something came up. I need to rectify things and do what I can," I spoke, and she nodded, preparing to leave. But then she paused."Mrs. Smith," she called, and I paused, wondering why she had called my attention."How's the boss doing? I mean, after everything Jason did. I never liked that Jason," she said, and my eyes nar

Chapter 41Michael's POVI couldn't even face Freya. Why had she added to my restlessness? Of all days, why would she confess her feelings to me? She never meant the words. She only said it so she could stay a while with me.I finally got out of my room after a few hours of drowning in heartbreak. I waited patiently, hoping Jason's call would come in and tell me everything that had happened earlier was just a prank. But then, it seemed I hadn't laid eyes on Freya since she confessed her feelings. I wondered where she had gone to. I hoped she didn't take my words seriously and had left my mansion.The truth was, I didn't know how I'd feel when Freya leaves. "Mrs. Cooke," I called, watching her chop vegetables as I stood, staring everywhere like I was searching for something."Michael," she replied. I'd always scolded her whenever she tried to do the 'boss' thing with me."Do you need anything?" she added, taking her hands off the vegetables as she approached me."No, no, I'm okay. I me

Chapter 42Emma's POV"Job well done, Alexis," I said, watching Freya from the car as she struggled with her luggage. I couldn't help but laugh as I remembered how she had confidently insulted my pride at the café."Just a video, and Micahel didn't hesitate to send you packing. Oh, Freya, how bad it is for a billionaire's wife to end up this way," I muttered, watching with joy and anticipating Alexis' next move. Alexis was an expert in fields like this.I began to see Freya's picture as headline news, and I knew my plans were working out well. With Freya out of the picture, I had Micahel all to myself again."I need to go see him and prove to him that I'm the only one who truly loves him," I said, giving myself a thorough look as I added more powder to my face and touched my lips with red lipstick.I stood up, adjusted my little orange gown, and catwalked towards Micahel's mansion. I finally reached the door after a few attempts by Mrs. Cooke to stop me."Please, Mrs. Cooke, I need to

Chapter 43 Ambrose's POV As I observed Waylen, I noticed he'd suddenly developed an interest in the room opposite his own. It was perplexing, as there was no way he could have seen anything unusual in there. His claim of having a friend now made me uneasy. I had carefully crafted my plans, ensuring no one would get in my way. Now that Grandpa had lost interest in giving Michael the inheritance, Freya would likely return to me. However, I felt it was time to renegotiate with Jason; I needed him on my side. ........... .......... "What do you want? Why do you suddenly come to see me? It's been four days. You can't change my mind," Jason asked, his eyes beaming with annoyance as I spat, watching him venomously. How could someone be so loyal? At a point, I realized I had no genuine ally behind me. Raymond was only loyal because I had promised him a huge share of the inheritance. Alexis was paid for every piece of information and operation she carried out for me. Emma was with

Chapter 44Freya's POVIt's been four days since the video got leaked, but the pain I felt was unmatched; nothing could be compared to it. I lost everything because of Emma. I folded my fists tightly, ensuring the knife I had kept behind my jeans was perfectly in place."Freya! Put away the knife now!" My mom screamed in fear, but I didn't flinch."I'll kill her," I said, my face devoid of emotion, as I gently placed my hand on the back pocket of my jeans.My mom moved closer towards me, "He'll come back for you," she whispered reassuringly, as I gave her a confused gaze. Hadn't she always wanted a day like this to come? From the onset, my mom had always hated the fact that Michael and I were together. She had seen me as an opportunist. Why, then, did she pray for his return?Michael had turned his back against me the moment my picture got leaked."He's such a fool," I said, weeping, as I closed my eyes tightly. He was such a fool not to have realized that I wasn't the woman in the v

Chapter 45Freya's pov"What?" I asked, my whole body wrapped around Michael's warm, comforting embrace. His familiar scent filled my senses, and I felt a flutter in my chest. I couldn't imagine that he actually said sorry to me. Did he realize I wasn't the woman in the video? Also, I'd like to ask him why he overreacted. Could my mom be right about Michael probably having feelings for me? But it wasn't possible; Michael still loved Emma. I shouldn't get my hopes too high because he actually hugged me so passionately tonight."I'm not the kind of man who says sorry. You should be lucky, Freya. You never got a rare opportunity like this," he said, his deep voice rumbling through his chest. I nodded, my expression bare, not revealing any smile.Now that Michael and I were cool, and the world knew about our separation, I wondered what would probably happen afterwards."Where are your belongings?" he asked, finally releasing me from the warm embrace. I straightened my clothes, not saying

The contract marriage: falling for a billionaire again Marriage or Mother?
Chapter 135 Freya's POV"What did you say?" Raymond asked, his eyeballs suddenly widening as I took a deep breath with my eyes closed. "Wait, did you both..." He paused as I felt so shy about giving him a response. He turned around, trying to go back to Jason, as I grabbed his hand firmly, preventing him from moving."What the hell are you doing?" I asked, my voice shaking. "Of course, we need to tell it to Jason. I can't keep this from him.""What do you mean? Michael's getting married, and I really don't want this baby to... come into his marriage," I said, and somehow, I could see the resignation in his expression."You could hurt the baby, you know?" He whispered as I shook my head, trying to be strong. "I'll be fine. Just go be with Jason and wait," I said as he nodded. "Be careful," he warned before leaving as I wiped away the little tears that had plastered on my face.A few moments later, I found myself in front of a beautiful yet small house. I doubted this was where Ambros
The contract marriage: falling for a billionaire again So it was him
Chapter 134Freya's POVI began to shake as we drove down a lonely bush path. Raymond held my hands in assurance, but it felt like that wasn't enough. I wanted more than just that... I needed Michael's warm embrace, I needed to feel his warm breath on me whispering to me that everything would be okay."Jason," I called as he replied with his eyes still fixed on the road as he drove with his cellphone mounted in front, which guided him with the direction. "Is... is... Michael coming already?" I asked, my voice so low, but I didn't think I needed to appear like I was fine without him. "Yes, Freya... Michael's coming." I nodded as I fixed my eyes on the wristwatch again as a private number appeared again as the caller ID. I picked it up immediately, fully aware that it was Ambrose."Hey... do you really not care about your mother? How aged she is that she can't even withstand the cold on her?" he mocked as he laughed loudly while my hand shook while holding the cellphone, but I tried
The contract marriage: falling for a billionaire again The second woman
Chapter 133Michael's POVI couldn't stop myself from banging the laptop that was placed in front of me aggressively on the office desk, not caring about anything. The thought of seeing Freya so comfortable without me by her side, her sudden closeness with Raymond, and how she didn't even realize that I had stopped her from going out there because I still cared for her. "You're so stupid, so stupid," I muttered, closing my eyes to take a deep breath when Grandpa's call came into my phone. "Grandpa," I finally said after the third ring, as I heard him clear his throat from the receiver end. I wondered why he had called; it was always about the damn marriage."Haven't you seen the news? Where did Ambrose take the little boy and his grandmother to?" he asked, and I detected panic in his voice. "You should hurry over and do something quick," he said, as I let out a low chuckle. How on Earth did he get to know about it? "Grandpa, why do you suddenly care about the Rogers?" I asked, and

Chapter 132 The weight of my words Freya's POV "Yeah, that won't be necessary. I'm here already, and there's no way I'm going to sit back and watch you all go without me," I said, my eyes locking onto Michael's, who didn't say a word but kept his focus on Raymond. "Raymond, we need to get to Grandpa," I said, almost going closer, as Michael stepped in between. His towering height once more intimidated me as he gave me a long, piercing gaze. "I will not let you go on that road in search of them; I won't ever allow that," Michael said authoritatively, as I couldn't stop myself from laughing. "What on earth does he take me for right now?" I thought. I refused to be stupid, not to him nor Ambrose. "Dare me if you can, Mr. Michael Smith Jenkins," I said in gritted teeth as I moved closer to him, like I was daring him for a challenge. "May I have a moment with her, please?" he said softly, as the two nodded about leaving while I moved closer to Raymond, still locking eyes with him. "We

Chapter 131Freya's POV"Raymond," I called, my voice shaking as I staggered on my feet before I felt his hand holding me from falling. "Ambrose is a psychopath. We need to chase him...we need to go over to Grandpa and...""Freya, I'll do everything I can to make sure your mother and son are safe. Trust me on this," he assured as I paced around restlessly before going to check my phone, which lay motionless on the floor. "Oh, thank God. It isn't broken," I whispered, trying to call the same number as Raymond watched me with anger in his eyes. "Damn!! The number isn't going through.""We have to take this to Jason; he should find a way to track his location," he said as I paused for a while. "Will you be fine? I mean, some publication was made to show that...some..." I stammered on my words, not knowing how he was going to take it. "That I once worked with Ambrose," he said, nodding his head slowly. "It's just that...I don't want you out there for me, Raymond.""They're right. The med
The contract marriage: falling for a billionaire again Love, Pain and Inheritance
Chapter 130Michael's POVI walked into my office for the first time in a while, smiling as I took a deep breath of the familiar air that greeted me. I wasted no time watering my very own plant that was placed beside my chair. Here I was, complete, as I closed my eyes for a while before retiring to the chair."Boss," Jason called as soon as he placed a knock on the door, and my expression turned sour. The word 'boss' was very foreign, hearing it from a friend I took more than a brother."Where is he? Have you found him?" I asked, my palm on my face as I took a deep breath."Have you reported the message he sent to you to the cops? I've tried tracking down the message, but somehow, I can't get any signal," he said as I stood, narrowing my eyes as I kept staring outside the window, like I could get a hint from there."And Raymond? Have you found him?""Since your release, we don't know where he is either. Somehow, dude hasn't forgiven himself about everything that had happened. He think
The contract marriage: falling for a billionaire again We are Screwed
Chapter 129Alexis' POVIt's been two days since Michael's freedom, and the whole city was speaking about him. I couldn't stop thinking about Raymond's words to me; I found them ridiculous. There was no way I was going to surrender. Either way, I needed to speak with Ambrose; we needed to have a better plan. Michael's wedding was the talk of the town; we couldn't let him get married and reclaim the inheritance........................."What did you say? Do you mean Ambrose fled without informing me?" I asked as Mrs. Cooke nodded her head slowly few moments after I made ways into Ambrose's home. I tried everything I could to control myself."And Emma? I guess that bitch had probably flown to Hungary...""Mr. Ambrose left with his son. I haven't heard from him since the final trial. What do we do? I'm so scared," Mrs. Cooke shivered as I closed my eyes for a moment."We have no time left. Ambrose is gone. Have you tried calling Emma?" I asked, trying to act strong as Mrs. Cooke tried c
The contract marriage: falling for a billionaire again The verdict
Chapter 128Michael's POVI was uneasy, my hands drumming unstoppably on my thigh as I kept adjusting my tie every few seconds. Like I'd told her, Freya wasn't present. Not only was she not present, I couldn't find Ambrose either. But then, I locked eyes with Emma, who took them away as soon as they collided; perhaps guilty."Shall we begin the final trial of Mr. Michael Smith?" the judge announced a few minutes after everyone had stood to acknowledge his presence. I rested my gaze on Jason, who shook his head in a way that told me not to push through with the plans I had in mind. I waved it off with a smile as I focused on the judge, who began to arrange and review documents."So..." the judge began, clearing his throat while I watched Grandpa dying of anxiety. Natasha Choi gave me a slight nod."Your Honor," a voice called out as everyone turned around to see who had interrupted the judge at this crucial point. "Your Honor, the witness wants to retell her testimony." The court offic
The contract marriage: falling for a billionaire again The power of love
Chapter 127Michael's POV"The final trial comes up tomorrow...if anything goes wrong tomorrow, I'll fight for my freedom," I said, locking eyes with Jason, who stood staring into space before he finally came to sit beside the sofa where I sat."You're not planning something, right?" "Bella's alive. Would you let me fold my hands and listen to the judge's verdict that I have been found guilty? Bella's alive now, and I have things to protect from Ambrose.""There's no way you'll be pronounced guilty just because Bella testified against you. And then there's something Raymond said to me, and somehow he's smart, and he might be right" I suddenly glued my eyes to Jason's eyes, curious to know what Raymond might have told him."And what exactly did he say to you?" "Listen...he said somehow, the judge probably knew what he was up to, and him isolating Bella to only God knows where until the trial should also be part of his smart move." "So?" I asked, still not getting what I was expecting
