Trapped with the billionaire Chapter 39
(PRESENT TIME) CADE’S POVThe memory of Racheal's fate still haunted me. I had heard she died, but I never had the courage to ask why or how. The guilt and shame of my actions had consumed me, making it impossible for me to face the truth.When my dad told me to leave the island for a while, I took the easy way out. I left to pursue my studies in the States, trying to escape the pain and the memories that lingered. But now, seeing that birthmark on Emily, it all came flooding back.A shiver ran down my spine as I stared at Emily, my mind racing with possibilities. Could it be? Was Emily somehow connected to Racheal? The birthmark seemed like more than just a coincidence. I felt a sudden urge to know more, to uncover the truth that I had been running from for so long.I stood in the doorway, my eyes fixed on my mom as she lounged on her bed, surrounded by the soft, nostalgic glow of candlelight. The sweet, melancholic melody of an old song filled the air, bu

CADE’S POV I called out to the two maids, who had started to walk away. "Hold on!" I said, and they turned back to me, their faces curious."Tell me, what's the story behind this album?" I asked, curiosity getting the better of me. I held up the old photo album, its worn cover creaking as I opened it. The maids exchanged a knowing glance before one of them began to speak."Well, it's an old album of the resort chefs," she explained. "They were always a jovial bunch, and they loved taking pictures together. They'd often have barbecues and parties, and they'd always make sure to capture the memories." The maid smiled wistfully. "It's a pity they all had to split up when the resort closed down."The other maid nodded in agreement. "But it's great that the resort is open again," she said. "It would be wonderful if they could track down those old chefs and get them to come back. I'm sure they'd be thrilled to see the place restored to its former glory."I raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "Ho

CADE’S POVI swung my legs over the side of the bed, concern etched on my face. "What's wrong?" I asked, my voice soft and gentle.But Emily's response was far from gentle. "Don't come near me!" she yelled, her eyes wild with fear. "Stay away! Stay away from me!"I tried to reach out to her, to comfort her, but she slapped my hand away. "Stay away from me!" she kept yelling, scrambling backward across the bed as if desperate to escape me.Feeling worried and helpless, I went after her, trying to calm her down. I gently pulled her up, but she continued to push me away, her eyes filled with a deep-seated terror."Stay away! Please don't hurt me!" she begged, her voice cracking with emotion. "Don't hurt me!"Her scared expression remind me of when I raped her years ago, she had cried and begged like this, she had called for help and begged me severally but I prayed no heard to her.As I held Emily in my arms, I couldn't shake off the feeling of guilt and regret that washed over me.

EMILY’S POVAs soon as Madame Denise's car disappeared from view, I slipped back into the house, determined to get some answers. Crazy Lucy's eyes widened in surprise as she saw me standing there, and for a moment, her act slipped."Who are you?" she asked, quickly regaining her composure and lapsing back into her crazy persona."I met you a while ago at the market," I replied, my eyes locked on hers. "And please, don't pretend to be crazy. I saw you just now, and you were speaking perfectly well. What's going on, Lucy? What are you hiding?"Lucy's gaze darted around the room, and for a moment, I thought I saw a glimmer of fear in her eyes. But then, her expression hardened, and she shouted, "Go away! Leave me alone!""I'm not leaving until you tell me what's going on," I pressed, my eyes locked on Lucy's. "That woman who was just here, she's my mother-in-law. And I couldn't help but overhear your conversation about a child who fell off a cliff. Tell me, Lucy, did she kill that child?

CADE’S POV "Tell me, are you interested in knowing the secret I found out?" my mom asked Emily, her eyes glinting with malice.Emily's gaze snapped to mine, her eyes wide with surprise and confusion. I felt a pang of dread, knowing that the truth was on the verge of being exposed. I had always wanted to protect Emily from the painful memories of our past, but now it seemed that my mom was determined to reveal everything.I knew I had to act fast to stop my mom. I strode towards them, my heart racing with anxiety. "Let's leave, Emily," I said, grasping her hand in mine.My mom's eyes narrowed, her expression venomous. "Why do you want to run away with her?" she sneered.I felt my anger boil over, and I muttered under my breath, "Just stop it, Mom. Don't say it." But she didn't listen."Your husband doesn't want me to tell you, but I have to," my mom said, her voice dripping with malice. "It's something that I need answers to."I tried to intervene, but she cut me off. "Mom, I—"But sh

EMILY’S POV "What are you saying, Mom? Why do I have to leave the island?" I asked, feeling a sense of confusion and alarm as I stared at Cade, who was watching me with a concerned expression."Don't ask me why! Just leave that place right now! Please, my child," my mom begged, her voice filled with desperation."Mom, you know I can't just leave," I replied, trying to reason with her. "Cade and I are...we're getting married.""Forget about Cade and get out of there!" my mom exclaimed, her voice rising to a frantic pitch. "I want you out of that place, please, my child!"Just then, the door opened, and Cade walked in, his eyes scanning the room with concern. "What's going on, Emily?" he asked, his voice low and soothing, as he walked towards me.I hesitated, unsure of how to explain the situation to Cade. My mom's words still echoed in my mind, filling me with a sense of unease and foreboding."It's my mom," I said, feeling a mix of frustration and worry as I handed the phone to

CADE’S POV As the air hostess's voice came over the speakers, I felt a mix of relief and anxiety. "Okay, sir, enjoy your flight," she said, her tone cheerful and upbeat. But I couldn't shake off the feeling of unease that had been building up inside me since we left the mansion.The routine checks and procedures before boarding the plane had been exhausting, but it was Emily's silence that was really worrying me. She hadn't spoken to me since we left the mansion, and every time I tried to talk to her, she would only respond with a monosyllabic "yes" or "no".I couldn't help but think that something was wrong. Ever since her parents' call, Emily had been acting strange. She seemed distant, preoccupied, and I couldn't help but wonder what was going on in her mind.As I pondered the reason behind Emily's silence, I couldn't shake off the feeling that it was my fault. Had I been too abrupt in asking her to leave the resort and come with me to the city? The resort held a special place in

"Please, I don't want her finding out like this," I begged softly, my voice cracking with desperation. "I want her to know the truth from me. Please, don't tell her the truth yet."Mrs. Wilburn's expression was incredulous, her eyes blazing with anger. "Isn't this being more shameless?" she spat. "You don't want her to know the sort of bastard you are? You want her to keep on loving the bastard who raped her?"Her husband placed a calming hand on her arm. "Honey, take it easy," he said, his voice soothing.But Mrs. Wilburn shook him off, her anger and pain boiling over. "For years, I had to see that struggle to be back to normal," she said, her voice trembling.

Mrs. Wilburn's voice trembled with emotion, her eyes welling up with tears. "She and her mom would light up any room they entered, their smiles infectious and bright. But after she

I stood at the balcony, lost in thought, as the memories of Emily's reaction flooded my mind. She had always looked at me with love and adoration, but when she remembered the truth, her expression transformed into one of hatred and disgust.That was why I had kept the secret hidden for so long. I had been terrified that if she found out, she would hate me, and I couldn't bear the thought of losing her. But now that she knew, I was consumed by the fear that she would never forgive me.If she wakes up, she'll hate me, I thought, my mind racing with dread. She might even ask for a divorce.

EMILY’S POV (TEN YEARS AGO)I walked back into the kitchen, my heart still racing from what I had just overheard. My mom was finishing her food, a forced smile on her face as she caught my eye. I returned the smile, trying to reassure her, but I knew she was scared. We both were.My uncle and his family owned the island, and everyone here seemed to be under their control. It was as if they were above the law. I knew that no one would dare to cross them, especially not the police.My mom's voice broke the silence. "Should we just go back to the States?" she asked, her eyes searching mine for answers.I hesitated, knowing that we had nowhere to go. My mom had always said that we couldn't go back, that we had to make a new life for ourselves here.But now, she was willing to risk everything to get us out of this place. "But we have nowhere to go, you always said that to me," I reminded her.My mom's expression turned determined. "I'll figure something out, let's just

EMILY’S POV (TEN YEARS AGO) ( The night of the festival)I lay on the bed, feeling defiled and dirty. The night that was supposed to be special had turned into a nightmare. I couldn't believe what had just happened.Cade's voice cut through my thoughts, making me feel even more wretched. "I hope you're using protection, cause I never used one," he said, his tone casual as he got dressed.I felt a wave of shame wash over me. How could he be so nonchalant about what we had just done? "Hey, it's not something you should get worked up over," he said, his eyes glinting with a mixture of amusement and malice. "You wanted it just as much as I did."His words were like a slap in the face, making me hate myself even more. I felt like I was drowning in a sea of shame and regret.But then Cade's expression turned ugly, his eyes flashing with anger. "Fine, then, since you've decided to act immature about it, I'll also do the same," he spat. "Don't get it wrong, this is for get

I stood frozen, my eyes fixed on Emily as she crouched on the floor, her body shaking with sobs. "You rapist, stay away from me!" she yelled, her voice hoarse from crying.I felt like I'd been punched in the gut. How did she find out? How did she know what happened? I thought, my mind reeling with questions.I took a step forward, my hands outstretched. "Emily, I can explain," I said, desperate to justify myself somehow.But Emily's words cut through my defenses like a knife. "I had begged you to stop, I had asked you to stop, but you didn't listen," she said, her voice cracking with emotion.I felt a wave of shame wash over me. I had never meant to hurt her, but I had. And now, I had to face the consequences."Emily, please listen to me, I beg you," I said, my voice shaking with regret.But Emily just shook her head, her eyes streaming with tears.

"I thought you had left for good," he said, his voice filled with emotion as he held me tight.I tried to explain, but David cut me off. "Why did you leave without saying a thing?" he asked, his eyes searching mine as he let go of me to stare at me.I hesitated, unsure of how to respond. "I had to be..." I started to say, but David didn't let me finish."Oh my!" I exclaimed, startled, as he pulled me into his arms again."I don't want to know your reason," David said, his voice filled with relief. "I'm just glad that you're back."I pushed him away, feeling a sense of unease. Why was David so glad that I was back? What did he know that I didn't?"I'll head to my room now?" I said, trying to sound casual.But David's response was unexpected. "Can't you see it?" he said suddenly, his eyes wide with excitement.I felt a surge of confusion. "See what?"

EMILY’S POV I sat in stunned silence, my mind reeling with the weight of my discovery. I had always sensed that something was off, a nagging feeling that had haunted me for as long as I could remember. And now, I had finally uncovered the truth.But as I gazed blankly into space, I couldn't help but wonder if I had made a terrible mistake. Would it have been better to remain in the dark, to never have sought out the truth? I thought about how blissfully ignorant I had been just days before, and a pang of regret shot through me."If only I could go back," I whispered to myself, my voice barely audible. "If only I could erase the memories of the past three days." But it was too late now. The truth was out, and I was left to grapple with the devastating consequences.

CADE’S POV "This is my picture from when I was graduating college," Emily said, a nostalgic smile on her face as she flipped through the pages of the family album.As we continued to browse through the album, a particular photo caught my eye. "And what about this?" I asked, pointing to a picture of Emily surrounded by a group of guys at the beach.Emily's eyes sparkled with amusement. "Oh, this was my first project after finishing my advertising course," she explained.My curiosity was piqued. "What? Your first project? What sort of project would a girl be doing amongst all these guys?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.Emily chuckled. "I had to help them advertise their beach. This is a photo taken when we were making the advert," she said, her eyes shining with memories of the experience."I don't like this at all," I said, my eyes narrowing as I gazed at the photo. "They're all male. Which one of them hit on you?" I asked, feeling a pang of jealousy.Emily burst out laughing, her eyes
