YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND BILLIONAIRE SINCE 1692 CHAPTER 146: UNFORESEEN CHALLENGES
The day had started like any other, with Arabela sitting at her desk, reviewing reports, answering emails, and strategizing for the future. She had just finished a successful meeting with her team, where they outlined the next steps for the company’s expansion. Everything was falling into place. But beneath the surface of calm, Arabela could feel a storm brewing—a challenge she hadn’t anticipated.As she looked over the numbers once more, a sudden notification flashed on her screen, a message from her CFO. **"Urgent: We need to talk. Something’s come up."**Arabela’s stomach dropped. She had worked tirelessly to make sure the company was on track, and the last thing she needed was an unexpected setback. Without hesitation, she picked up the phone and dialed the number."Arabela," her CFO’s voice came through the speaker, tinged with concern. "I need you to prepare yourself for something. We’ve encountered a serious financial issue that could potentially affect our next quarter’s proj
YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND BILLIONAIRE SINCE 1692 CHAPTER 147: THE TIES THAT BIND
The rain had started to fall softly, casting a gentle haze over the city. Arabela stood by the window in her office, looking out at the world beyond. The grey sky mirrored the weight she felt inside. After the financial crisis had been addressed and the dust had settled, something still lingered in her heart—a deep yearning for connection, a reminder that no matter how high she climbed, she was still human.Her phone buzzed, breaking her from her thoughts. It was a message from Christine.**“I miss you. Come home early tonight?”**Arabela’s heart warmed as she read the message. Christine’s words were a constant source of comfort and reassurance. No matter what happened at work, she knew that when she returned home, she would find peace in Christine’s arms. She replied quickly.**“I’ll be there. Promise.”**Despite the relentless pressure of her job, Arabela had learned that the ties that bound her to those she loved were just as crucial as the responsibilities she carried. They gave
YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND BILLIONAIRE SINCE 1692 CHAPTER 148: THE FUTURE UNWRITTEN
The future had always been something Arabela had viewed through a lens of logic and precision. Every move calculated, every decision planned. As the CEO of a growing company, she was accustomed to the pressure of shaping tomorrow, of creating a path where there once was none. But today, as she walked through the bustling streets of the city, she felt a different kind of uncertainty—a feeling that the future wasn’t something she could control, not entirely.The weight of her responsibilities had never been more apparent. The financial crisis was now behind them, but the company was still at a crossroads, its next steps uncertain. The unexpected challenges had tested her, but now, more than ever, Arabela realized that the future was like an unwritten page, full of potential but devoid of any guarantee.She had always been a woman who believed in forging her own path. But now, with Christine by her side, and with the love that had rooted itself deeply in her heart, she began to question
YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND BILLIONAIRE SINCE 1692 CHAPTER 149: BREAKING POINT
The pressure had been building for weeks—subtle at first, creeping into the corners of her mind when she was least expecting it. It started with the long hours at the office, the endless meetings, and the constant juggling of priorities. Then, there were the moments with Christine, where Arabela couldn’t fully be present, her thoughts always drifting back to the weight of the company. But today, something snapped.It wasn’t one thing, but a thousand little things piling on top of one another. The email from her CFO detailing another unexpected setback in their international project. The phone call from a key partner demanding answers. The back-to-back meetings that drained the last ounce of energy from her.And then, it happened.As Arabela sat in the conference room, listening to her team present their latest numbers, her mind wandered. She could barely focus on the figures being discussed, her body tense with the strain of trying to hold everything together. The constant fear that
YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND BILLIONAIRE SINCE 1692 CHAPTER 150: REDISCOVERY
The days after Arabela’s breakdown felt like a blur, a whirlwind of emotions and introspection. She had retreated from the corporate world for a while, allowing herself the space to breathe, to think. The weight that had once felt unbearable was now a constant hum in the background, but she had learned something crucial: that in order to move forward, she needed to rediscover who she was beyond the title of CEO, beyond the responsibilities she had placed on herself.Christine had been her anchor through it all, her unwavering support and understanding. They spent quiet evenings together, sharing simple moments that brought peace to Arabela’s restless mind. Slowly but surely, she began to find pieces of herself that had been buried under the pressure of success.One afternoon, Arabela sat in the park, the sun warm on her skin. The sound of children playing in the distance was a reminder of the life she’d put on hold for so long—the life she had almost forgotten to appreciate. She had a
YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND BILLIONAIRE SINCE 1692 CHAPTER 151: A MOMENT OF CLARITY
Arabela stood on the edge of the cliff, her gaze fixed on the horizon where the sun was beginning to set. The warm hues of orange and pink painted the sky, reflecting the turmoil in her heart. She clutched the letter Christine had left her, the words burned into her mind like a searing brand. *"Dreams are not meant to divide us, Arabela. They're meant to unite us. So why does it feel like ours are tearing us apart?"* The question lingered, echoing in the recesses of her mind. It wasn’t the first time she doubted the path they had chosen. Their once unbreakable bond now felt fragile, stretched thin by ambition and the pursuit of success. Christine had left for the city weeks ago, chasing her dreams of becoming a world-renowned artist. Arabela, on the other hand, had remained in their small hometown, dedicating herself to the community they had grown up in. Both paths were noble, yet they seemed to lead in opposite directions. For the first time, Arabela questioned whether the l
YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND BILLIONAIRE SINCE 1692 CHAPTER 152: THE BALANCE
The early morning light streamed through the curtains, casting soft golden rays across the small room. Arabela stretched her arms, feeling the tension in her muscles ease after a long, sleepless night of reflection. Today felt different—a quiet resolve had settled in her chest, a determination to find the balance between ambition and connection, between chasing dreams and nurturing relationships. Christine sat at the small wooden table by the window, a cup of coffee cradled in her hands. Her gaze was distant, focused on the horizon where the sky melted into hues of pale blue and soft orange. She looked peaceful, yet her silence was heavy with thought. Arabela joined her, placing her hand lightly on Christine’s. The simple touch brought Christine out of her reverie, and she smiled faintly, her eyes meeting Arabela’s with a mixture of gratitude and hesitation. “We can’t keep living in extremes, can we?” Arabela began, her voice soft but firm. Christine nodded, exhaling slowly. “
YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND BILLIONAIRE SINCE 1692 CHAPTER 153: THE ROAD AHEAD
The wind was crisp as it swept through the narrow streets of their small town, carrying with it the mingled scents of freshly baked bread and blooming flowers. Arabela and Christine stood in the town square, a large, blank canvas propped against the community center wall. Around them, locals gathered with curiosity, their voices a low murmur of excitement. Arabela turned to Christine, her smile tinged with nervous energy. “This is it. The first step toward everything we talked about.” Christine nodded, gripping the brush in her hand. “I still can’t believe they all showed up. I thought it would take weeks to get the town on board.” “They showed up because they believe in us,” Arabela said, her voice firm. “And because they’re ready for something new. Just like we are.” Christine dipped her brush into a pot of bold blue paint, her strokes deliberate as she began to craft the first image on the canvas. It was a sunrise—vibrant and full of promise, symbolizing the beginning of a

YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND BILLIONAIRE SINCE 1692 CHAPTER 293: ECHOES OF THE PAST
The room remained eerily quiet, the air thick with the remnants of the ancient presence that had just departed. Amelia stood motionless, her eyes fixed on the space where the figure had once stood. It felt as though time itself had stopped, leaving her suspended in a moment of crushing uncertainty.She could still feel the echoes of its words reverberating in her mind, a constant, insistent whisper that tugged at her thoughts. *The return of the ancient power...* The phrase repeated itself like a chant, drowning out everything else.Behind her, Alexander exhaled sharply, breaking the silence. His voice was low but firm, filled with an unsettling calmness. “We cannot ignore this. The threat is real.”Amelia turned to face him, her heart racing. She had seen him battle enemies, both mortal and immortal, but there was something different in his eyes now. A darkness, a flicker of doubt that she had never seen before. He, too, understood the weight of the situation—they both did.“What doe
YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND BILLIONAIRE SINCE 1692 CHAPTER 292: THE RETURN OF AN ANCIENT POWER
The weight of the figure’s words hung heavy in the air, a dark omen that threatened to overshadow everything they had fought for. Amelia’s breath caught in her chest as the figure’s glowing eyes pierced through the dim light of the library, its presence suffocating the room with an ancient and malevolent energy.Alexander stood motionless beside her, his expression unreadable, but his every muscle tensed with the unmistakable readiness of a warrior prepared for battle. The sword at his side seemed to hum with energy, as if it too sensed the arrival of something far older and far more dangerous than they could have imagined.The figure before them took a slow step forward, its cloak billowing with an unnatural wind that stirred the dust on the library’s floor. It seemed to glide across the ground, its movements deliberate, and its shadow stretched far beyond its form—dark and consuming, like the approach of a storm.Amelia’s mind raced as she tried to comprehend what she was facing. Th
YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND BILLIONAIRE SINCE 1692 CHAPTER 291: A SHADOW IN THE DISTANCE
The mountain’s pulse had slowed, but the tension in the air remained thick, almost suffocating. The mysterious figure that had emerged from the shadows had vanished as quickly as it had appeared, leaving nothing behind but the deep tremors of the earth and the unsettling silence that followed. Amelia and Alexander stood motionless, their eyes scanning the rocky landscape, the eerie feeling of being watched lingering in the air.Amelia’s heart pounded in her chest, every nerve alert. The threat was real, and it wasn’t just the Crimson Order they were up against. Something older, something more powerful, was awakening—and it was clear now that their path had just become far more dangerous.“What was that?” Amelia whispered, her voice barely above a breath. She turned to Alexander, but his face remained unreadable, a mask of calm that belied the storm brewing in his mind.“I don’t know,” Alexander said, his voice low. “But I’ve never felt power like that before. It wasn’t just physical s
YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND BILLIONAIRE SINCE 1692 CHAPTER 290: THE SEEDS OF REBELLION
The dim light of the underground chambers flickered as whispers filled the air, carrying with them an unsettling sense of urgency. In the heart of the resistance’s hideout, hidden beneath the city’s fractured streets, a plan was slowly coming together. The cracks in the foundation of the Crimson Order’s power were deepening, but so too was the desire for rebellion—a desire that now seemed to pulse through every corner of the world, from the highest towers to the deepest shadows.Amelia paced back and forth, her mind racing with the revelations of the past days. Yvan’s words haunted her, each sentence a weight she could scarcely bear. The world was teetering on the edge of something far darker than the Crimson Order had ever been, and the consequences of inaction would be catastrophic.Alexander stood at the edge of the room, his gaze distant, his posture tense. His thoughts, like hers, were heavy with the responsibility of the choices that lay ahead. He had been a soldier in countless
YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND BILLIONAIRE SINCE 1692 CHAPTER 289: THE NEW ARPER
The city buzzed with energy, a curious mix of anticipation and anxiety that crackled in the air like static. News of the Crimson Order’s return had spread quickly, and the once peaceful streets now felt charged with tension. Amelia stood atop a balcony, looking out over the sprawling metropolis, her mind restless as her thoughts returned to the ancient enemy they were about to face. “The calm before the storm,” she murmured, her fingers tracing the stone railing as the setting sun bathed the city in an amber glow. Behind her, Alexander’s voice was calm, but there was a quiet urgency in his words. “We cannot let the Crimson Order succeed in bringing back the altar’s power. It’s not just about us anymore—it’s about everything we’ve fought for.” Amelia turned to meet his gaze, her heart heavy with the weight of their shared history. “I know,” she replied softly. “But I keep wondering if we’re prepared for what’s coming. We can’t undo what was done to us. The bond… it’s a part of us
YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND BILLIONAIRE SINCE 1692 CHAPTER 288: OLD WOUNDS REOPENED
The dawn brought with it a chill that seeped into Amelia’s bones as she prepared to join Alexander and Evelyn at the war council. Though the reports from the citadel were scant, the unease they carried was enough to rattle even the most seasoned among them. As she stepped into the chamber, the atmosphere was heavy with tension. The leaders of their alliance—human, immortal, and otherworldly alike—had gathered around the circular table. Maps and reports littered its surface, but all eyes turned to Evelyn, who stood at the head of the room. “Our scouts returned early this morning,” Evelyn began, her voice steady but somber. “The ruins of the citadel are no longer empty. Whoever these intruders are, they’ve fortified their position—and they’ve uncovered something.” A murmur rippled through the room. Amelia leaned forward, her heart pounding. “Uncovered what?” Evelyn hesitated before answering. “The remnants of the Obsidian Altar.” The room fell into stunned silence. The Obsidia
YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND BILLIONAIRE SINCE 1692 CHAPTER 287: THE QUIET BEFORE THE STORM
The days following the monumental gathering were steeped in a rare, almost fragile tranquility. The city hummed with the sounds of progress, and its people moved with a renewed sense of purpose. Amelia found herself enjoying the quiet moments—a luxury she hadn’t experienced in centuries. She wandered through the newly rebuilt streets, her steps unhurried. Vendors called out cheerful greetings, children played games in the squares, and the scent of freshly baked bread wafted through the air. For the first time in what felt like forever, the world seemed... normal. But deep within her, Amelia knew better. “Something’s coming,” she muttered under her breath as she stood on the edge of the market, her gaze fixed on the distant mountains. Alexander’s voice interrupted her thoughts. “You feel it too.” She turned to see him approaching, his expression unreadable. His ability to mask his emotions was both a strength and a frustration to her, but in this moment, she could see the fai
YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND BILLIONAIRE SINCE 1692 CHAPTER 286: A WORLD REBORN
The dawn broke over a world transformed. Golden light spilled across the land, illuminating vast fields where the scars of war had once marred the earth. Now, green sprouted in abundance, and the air hummed with the vibrant energy of renewal. Amelia stood atop the hill that overlooked the city she had come to call home. It was not the city it had been when she and Alexander first arrived—fractured, divided, and weighed down by history. No, this was something new. The streets below thrummed with life as people moved with purpose and hope, building and rebuilding. “It’s beautiful,” she murmured, more to herself than anyone else. Alexander approached from behind, his steps quiet but sure. “It is. And it’s only the beginning.” She glanced at him, her expression contemplative. “Do you think it will last this time? After everything we’ve done… do you think peace can truly hold?” Alexander was quiet for a moment, his gaze fixed on the horizon. “Peace isn’t something that simply hap
YOU ARE MY GIRLFRIEND BILLIONAIRE SINCE 1692 CHAPTER 285: THE FUTURE AWAITS
The air was alive with the hum of possibility, a quiet buzz that seemed to reverberate through the streets and the hearts of the people. It was a new era, one born of sacrifice, struggle, and triumph. The shadows that had once plagued the world had receded, and in their place, a bright light had emerged, strong and unwavering.Amelia stood at the window of their home, her eyes tracing the horizon where the city met the sky. The buildings that once stood as symbols of division and conquest now seemed to breathe with a new purpose. The streets, once silent and tense, now rang with the laughter of children, the bustle of merchants, and the sounds of life returning to its natural rhythm. She felt the weight of the moment, the weight of everything they had done, everything they had sacrificed, but also the weight of what still lay ahead. Peace was no longer an abstract concept—it was here. But with peace came responsibility, and with responsibility came the need for action.Beside her, Al
