Semua Bab My Hot Billionaire: Bab 31 - Bab 40

Today is Edward's last day attending a meeting with Emaar Properties. As scheduled, tomorrow morning he will return to London and begin carrying out the agreed-upon tasks. Together with Nicholas, early in the morning, he has already headed to the meeting building.However, when he arrived and was about to enter the room, Edward's eyes caught a sight he didn't like. A man whom he hadn't seen in a long time was in the building and the same room today. He even greeted him without hesitation."Sebastian Eduardo Martin. It's such a pleasure to meet you again after all this time."Edward turned. He used his eyes to scan the appearance of the man in front of him from head to toe. A moment later, he responded with a flat expression."Arsene Tobias Geraldo. I'm sure this is not a coincidence. God doesn't joke around like that, right?"The man named Arsene chuckled so lightly."Why should we blame God when the two of us accidentally meet? Have I done something so terrible to you that you refuse

After weighing and considering all the consequences that would happen, Chloe finally decided to visit Edward during lunchtime. For her, it didn't matter if this time she gave in by following Samuel's advice to visit her husband at his office first.Driving her own vehicle, the beautiful woman arrived at the Quantum building and was warmly welcomed by the employees there. After all, who didn't know Chloe? The beautiful woman who had recently married the newest CEO of Quantum.Along the corridors of the building, Chloe kept smiling. She was friendly to anyone who deliberately greeted her as they crossed paths.When she was about to take the elevator, she even accidentally bumped into Nicholas. Politely, Edward's assistant greeted her and even offered to accompany her to his office."Mr. Edward has just finished a meeting. Right now, he's in his office."Chloe nodded. "Has he had lunch?""As far as I know, not yet, ma'am," Nicholas replied. "In these past few days, your husband has been

"Morning, sweetheart... did you sleep well?"Edward's voice faintly reached Chloe amid the pounding sensation in her head. She massaged her forehead, trying to open her eyes to respond to her husband's greeting."Was I drunk last night?" Her hoarse voice sought an explanation.Edward, who was getting ready, turned. While adjusting his tie, he approached and sat right next to his wife. The citrus and mint aroma from the perfume Edward wore sharply filled Chloe's sense of smell."Not just drunk. You were even a handful last night." Edward then handed a glass of apple juice, which he had prepared for Chloe to drink. "Finish this juice. Hopefully, it will help relieve the headache and nausea you're feeling now."Chloe complied. She slowly sipped the drink Edward offered. "I'm only drunk like this because of you," she protested, then handed him the empty glass from the juice she had finished."Why is it always my fault?" Edward raised an eyebrow in puzzlement. But in Chloe's eyes, he never

"Instead of making people disappear, I can't bear to hurt women. There's no need to go far, when I feel a need, why would I bother looking for someone else when you willingly gave yourself to me.""I could have taken advantage of you last night while you were unconscious. But, once again, I want to emphasize that I'm not a wicked man like you imagine."Those sentences kept replaying like a broken cassette in Chloe's mind. What Edward said last night managed to disturb her thoughts.Chloe was clearly torn. On one hand, she felt Edward was being honest last night, but on the other hand, all the evidence she had received from Nathalie before pointed to her husband. So what should she do now? Should she continue with all the plans she had prepared, or should she stop and learn to make peace with the deep-seated hatred she had all this time?Chloe actually aspired to live a normal life like an ordinary person. However, when she remembered Nathalie, an aura of pain and vengeance instantly e

Now, it was Samuel's turn to sigh in frustration. It seemed that what he had thought all along was right: Edward wasn't the man responsible for Nathalie's death. From his movements alone, Samuel could deduce that Edward was being honest with his confession."Thus...," Samuel paused his sentence for a moment. He must have taken countless breaths before continuing the story. "Mrs. Nathalie passed away a few years ago. At the end of her life, she asked Mrs. Chloe to find a man. I don't know the exact purpose or intention. But Mrs. Chloe believed that the man she was looking for was the one behind her sister's death."Edward furrowed his brows."Don't tell me Chloe accuses me of causing her sister's death?"Samuel confirmed himself once more. Ready or not, he was determined to reveal what he had known all this time. He did it to protect Chloe from a great deal of trouble. Yes, Samuel needed to act quickly. He didn't want many parties to suffer from these baseless accusations."Unfortunate
