The contract marriage: falling for a billionaire again The real owner of the bones
Chapter 110Ambrose POV"Ambrose, will he be okay? I mean, the medical team hasn't tended to his wounds," Alexis said as we both stood by the doorway, watching Raymond and Freya as they both lay unconscious."He's a traitor. You shouldn't care about him. The moment he left us and sided with Michael, I abandoned him, and I'd want you to do the same," I said, my words firm, as she nodded."Are you really sure about not giving Raymond the drink? I mean...""No one should know anything about the drink. For now, only Freya deserves it. She already knows too much, far more than Raymond," I replied."But then... How on Earth was she able to retrieve her old phone? Don't you think you're making everything easy for her by letting her live? The trial will proceed in two weeks, Ambrose. I hope you're doing the right thing by keeping her alive," Alexis said as I was quiet for a while.The truth was, I've always wanted to eliminate Freya from the moment she fell in love with Michael. But then, I d

Chapter 111Michael's POV "Jason, any news from Freya yet?" I asked as Jason shook his head slowly."Don't worry, man. She'll be okay," Jason assured. "Probably, she went to get a lot of evidence. She'll never betray you like Emma had done," Jason reminded me as I gritted my teeth and tightened my fist. I would never have believed that Emma would actually betray me to the point of testifying against me. It was something I didn't want to think about."There's something I want to ask you, Michael," Jason said as I made no facial reaction."What about it?" I asked curtly."You didn't mention the fact that Bella's remains weren't the one underneath the grave. I mean, shouldn't that have lessened the charges?" Jason asked as I smiled."Jason, I might be implicating myself if I had done that," I replied."Implicate? How do you mean?" he asked surprisingly, his eyes suddenly bulging out."There are certain steps which may be considered as the right thing, but they might just be a bait. You

Chapter 112Raymond's POVFew hours earlier"Hey, what have you got in there? Do you really know the penthouse like you said?" I asked, trying my best to make my voice as low as I could. "Yeah, of course I do. But then, I don't want to act like I do. Remember I've been stupid to Alexis and Ambrose. Right now, they all think I'm a fool because of the drink," Freya said as I nodded, moving closer to her."Hey, do you still recognize the color of the drink and everything?" "Of course," she said, glancing at the open windows. "The sun will set soon. What on Earth have you got in there to cut these loose ropes?" She asked as I shook my head. She took a deep breath, trying to cut the rope from a sharp corner, but that might not be a good idea."Hey, I think your hairpin should do," I said as she looked at me like she had doubted my words. "Are you crazy? This isn't a movie, Raymond. This is reality. How do you expect a freaking hairpin to cut a strong, durable, synthetic material like th
Huling Na-update : 2025-04-11The contract marriage: falling for a billionaire again I just need to stay away
Chapter 113Freya's POVI kept holding the cellphone tightly as I felt my limbs almost breaking from running so fast. The penthouse, which looked familiar to me, suddenly felt like a different place as I didn't know what direction to take. Right now, Ambrose and his men would probably be searching for me to get the phone; for now, I needed to hide instead of running helplessly.But then, I needed to call Jason. At moment, Jason might be the only one who could help me. "Oh, no, no," I cried, realizing that I had run out of battery. "Fuck this," I wept, still trying everything in me to run as fast as I could. I began to wonder what might have happened to Raymond. But then, I had to get to safety in order to save him.The sound of gunshot was heard again as I began to shiver. I fell, not realizing something was blocking my path, but then, I got up immediately. I wondered why no one was walking along the road, and somehow, everything looked like it had been staged.********Michael's POV

Chapter 114Ambrose POVThe wine glass shattered against the wall as I paced around my secret room. "Bring him to me now," I growled, ending the call as I began to think of various punishments I'd give to Raymond. How dare he disrupt my plans? There was no way I'd let Freya get to Michael successfully. No one would ever suspect where I'd hidden her old phone, no one.It was past ten when I realized they were present. My eyes were filled with anger as Alexis and I locked eyes. "How dare you? Emma would have done better than you. I gave you a simple task, and all you needed to do was to take them to the penthouse as safely as you could. You dare fall for Raymond's trick?" I asked as she began to shiver in fear."You still think of him even after everything he's done? He's a traitor, and you dare make irrational moves?" I asked, my voice echoing through the four corners of the grand room. She didn't say a word; all she did was make quiet crying sounds, which only grated on my nerves more

Chapter 115Freya's POV I didn't think I'd ever slept so well in weeks. I could barely sleep at our new home, where we had secretly moved to. Besides, Mom had confirmed that Grandpa had offered her VIP treatment. I glanced at my phone; it was past eight, and there had been no calls from Michael."Hey, you're okay? Seems like you've just seen a ghost," I froze as I turned around to see Jason bringing in a glass of warm milk. "I'm not hungry; you can take it back," I said, my expression stern, as he took a deep breath. "I still need to follow the boss's order," he said, as I frowned my face. "I don't care about the boss's order," I snapped, almost going back into my room, as Jason swiftly made a move that stopped me from walking away."Freya, I know it's hard for you, and I know how angry you are. But the boss risked his life and everything last night," he said, as I bit my lips, acting like it didn't mean anything to me. "Michael has been restricted and placed under house arrest unti

Chapter 116Freya's POVIt's been three days after reading Naomi's letter. It broke me into pieces that Emma had used us the way she wanted. And now, it was finally time to use her just like she had done. I made sure no one was following and no one would even detect that I was the one. The warm breeze greeted me as I got down from the cab. Funny how a billionaire's wife never got addicted to driving any of the exotic cars in the mansion."Thank you," I said, paying the cab man, who kept giving me unusual looks till I was out of sight. I looked into the letter as I kept following the address to find my right way. I stopped in front of an orphanage home; I wondered why she had sought refuge here."Ma'am, would you like me to give you a hand?" One of the children who were playing soccer suddenly ran towards me as I revealed a smile. I had disguised myself as an old woman, which probably felt so awkward to me. "Hey, my child," I said, moving closer to the young boy as he stared at me so

Chapter 117Bella's POV"Ahhhhh!" I woke up with a loud scream as I began to shake. I didn't know why, but I had never had this dream for a while now. I glanced at the cinnamon drink as I began to breathe profusely.[Michel killed you! He stabbed you and he killed you] I kept hearing the numerous voices which were ringing in my head. I rolled up my shirt to see the large scar that lay above my upper abdomen."Hey, are you okay?" The door to my room suddenly opened as I shivered from the shock. "Mrs. Cooke, I'm so scared," I whispered as she glanced at the cinnamon drink that was placed on the table, giving me a wild look."That's why your nightmare hasn't ceased. You shouldn't skip these," she said, trying to reach out her hand to hand the drink to me, but I messed it up. I had thrown the cup angrily from her as I felt the noises in my head kept sounding louder. The truth was, I had stopped taking the cinnamon drink for a long time now, except when I was being watched."I don't want t

Chapter 118Michael's POV"So, what else have you found out about? How's everything in the office?" I asked Jason as he moved closer to me like he was trying to speak to me discreetly, even when there were only both of us present."The office right now is not in perfect shape. You're losing a lot of investors, and as we speak, Ambrose is on the verge of claiming Smith Tech," Jason said as I closed my eyes for a while."And Grandpa, what is he doing? Did he still trust Ambrose so much after everything that's happening?" "Don't think about stuff like that right now. But then, about your marriage with Freya, I..." "Enough, don't say anything about her." I snapped as Jason's face fell."You have to keep up with the marriage for the meantime. I know tomorrow's the day the contract ends. Yeah, like a dream, but it's freaking six months. But you can't afford to dissolve the marriage amidst the crisis we are right now.""I don't...wanna put Freya in my mess.
