All Chapters of Trapped by the Ruthless Billionaire: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Propose? The word sounded strange in Cathan's ears. He hadn't even thought about it. Most marriages among the Blades were arranged. He knew nothing about relationships, marriage and all but he knew that he didn't want to lose the only woman he ever loved. Proposal meant setting a date for marriage as well, which meant that he had to inform grandpa first and see if Kate will be comfortable with the conditions. The Blades were weird. "I will do that but I have to introduce her to my family as well before," he said thoughtfully. What if he proposed and the Blades condition wasn't favourable to Kate? "That is well understood. In case you don't know, her father is still unwell. You have to convince her to take over the business. My husband's skills are very poor and the company is dying," the woman's expression saddened at the mention of her husband. Cathan was somehow happy with the arrangement. If Kate agreed to manage the company, then she wasn't going to be flying around the world.

“Yes, a prenup to prove that you won’t kill my grandson and take his wealth,” Grandpa let out a sinister smile, Kate felt taunted. Cathan was upset. He expected certain conditions but not this.Even when she didn't know he was rich and even thought he was going to borrow money from Casper to help her, she still loved him unconditionally, which was why she was upset when he denied her the last time.“Grandpa is that necessary.” Cathan didn't know where to start. How could he convince the old man?“Do you think that we Blades will allow a woman to take our assets? Have you thought about how our wealth has been preserved for generations? If she doesn’t agree, I can find you a wife who isn’t greedy for your wealth,” the old man snarled and puffed his cigar again. Cathan ruffled his hair in frustration. He couldn't let this happen. He had to buy time to seek Casper's advice.“Grandpa, you are not being fair. If she becomes my wife, then she’s my responsibility. How can my wife have nothing

Caleb picked up Peggy after work. He was slightly nervous because of what Casper asked him to do. Will things turn out different between them if he obliged?He was conflicted, thinking of making his feelings known to Peggy but also fearing her feelings for Hunter. He was like her second skin and there was never a smooth conversation between them without the mention of him. “You look nervous.” Peggy looked at Caleb and said. She was equally anxious to visit his house for the first time though he has been at hers several times. When it got late and he had to sleep over, he'd curl up on the couch so Peggy understood that he also saw her as a sister. Caleb never made any sensual advances toward her.She was afraid of drooling over the attractiveness she felt towards him, only to be disappointed again. Dealing with her feelings for Hunter was already draining, she didn't want another hurdle. “Am I?” Caleb asked rhetorically, wondering how his cousins pulled through around the women they l

Jenna had thought through everything in the night and this was the only way to keep her dignity and her friends safe. She knew Casper won’t allow her to go so after arriving at the office, she hastened through her meetings to not create any suspicions after checking the airlines. She didn’t have any destination in mind, just a plan of escape for as long as she could leave the soil of Manhattan, she’ll be fine. The quickest flight was going to France but she booked it. From there, she could plan her life and find a place to settle. She passed by the staff quarters and luckily, Kate had gone to work. After packing a few clothes from there, she set off since she couldn’t pick anything from Casper’s manor without raising suspicion. Luckily, there wasn’t much traffic but the weather was getting cloudy when she arrived at the airport. She made it to the terminal and had the ticket checked but just as she was about to go through the departure terminal, an announcement was made through the

When Casper left Jenna in the room alone, all she wanted was to end it all. In Casper’s eyes, she could see the love that scorched her, and grandpa's hatred, so scalding. She didn't have the strength to fight and she wasn't allowed to run. She was trapped in Casper’s heart and the only escape route she could think about was taking sleeping pills overdose from the medicine cabinet.Casper had already called the family doctor before arriving at the Blades’ hospital, which luckily was close to his manor. Cathan was taking care of the company while Caleb left with Hunter so none of his trusted persons knew what had happened.Jenna was taken to the intensive care unit and Casper could only wallow in self-regret. If he had let her go, all this wouldn't have happened. It would have been better to be far from her, knowing she was alive than to lose her like this.He could have stayed with her and made the call in front of her but didn't want to show any more of his ruthless side to her.
