All Chapters of Married a Secret Billionaire: Chapter 1431 - Chapter 1440

Renee stood there, utterly shocked by Toph's unexpected reaction. She had always viewed him as the wealthy, naive son she could easily manipulate.In their previous conflicts, no matter how heated they became, Toph would invariably return to her like an obedient puppy whenever she shed a tear and showed vulnerability.However, something in his eyes had changed this time. Panic briefly gripped her, but she regained her composure and continued crying."Toph, what am I to you? I have realized my mistake and genuinely want to be with you. You're an exceptional man, and I should cherish you—""That's right, I'm quite exceptional." Toph forced a smile. "I must have seemed like a fool to you, huh?""Toph!""Do you have any idea what I've been through?" He locked eyes with her. "I felt like I was losing my mind. No matter what I attempted, there was always a voice in my head saying, 'You can't do it...'""Renee, I started having nightmares. I'd wake up in the middle of the night and cou

Before Nicholas lost his temper, Lena became agitated. She took a step forward, raised her arm, and delivered a resounding slap to Renee.The world fell silent after the slap.Renee looked up, stupefied. Her cheek stung, but she found herself staring into a pair of clear, bright eyes."H-How could you hit me?" she stammered."I struck a rabid dog," Lena replied, her expression unchanged. "I cherish peace and can't stand incessant barking."Renee seethed with anger, ready to fight Lena with her life. However, Nicholas intervened, forcefully pushing her away with one hand.She stumbled and fell to the ground with a thud. Before she could retaliate, Toph pulled her up."Don't touch me!" she screamed at the top of her lungs.Toph felt embarrassed as he disregarded her struggles and yanked her away.He used to tolerate her, even showing gentleness when they held hands. Renee hadn't expected him to be so strong."That's enough, Renee," he insisted, dragging her away.Despite the o

Lena sat there, unsure of what to do. Lina could sense her unease and intentionally asked, "Why do you look like that?" She chuckled.Lena looked up after a moment of hesitation and said, "Lina, did you..."She wanted to ask, "Did you not receive that email? Don't you feel uncomfortable after seeing those pictures?"Ultimately, she asked, "Don't you have any questions for me?"Lina gently placed the bowl she was holding down and took Lena's hands."Zuko is investigating. We'll soon find out who sent the email," Lina assured her."Lina, those pictures... They're real." Lena bit her lip. "I saw Renee fighting with Toph at the cafe the other day. I went up to stop her, and she threw a glass at me. I didn't know your father was behind me when I dodged the glass.""You don't have to explain." Lina smiled warmly. "I believe you."Lena teared up. Hearing those words meant the world to her.She looked at Lina with emotions welling up, uncertain how to express herself."Sis..." She

Chris went for a 5k run before heading to Lena's apartment. The three pizzas he had devoured were enormous. Despite his lengthy run, he still felt stuffed when he returned home.Regret washed over him when he opened the door and caught a whiff of the food wafting from the kitchen. "Welcome home?" Lena greeted him while bringing out the final dish, a steaming bowl of soup. The spread on the table looked enticing, filled with his favorite dishes. The risotto was perfectly cooked, its grains glistening. With the seared steak on the side, it promised to be a delicious meal."Come and eat!"He was taken aback but accepted the cutlery from her with a smile. Chris had never seen Lena this skilled in the kitchen. As he took his seat, Lena studied him carefully. Something seemed off today, but she couldn't quite pinpoint it. Why wasn't he devouring the meal like he usually did when she cooked for him? Why was he so composed today?"Hurry up and eat!" She urged, "Isn't seared ste

Renee returned to the prison once more.The air inside carried a grim, damp, and moldy odor, a stark reminder of her last encounter with Melvin at this place, a memory she'd rather forget. As she approached the entrance, she instinctively stepped back."What's wrong?" the female officer asked coldly.Renee composed herself and pulled down her cap, concealing her face from prying eyes. She hadn't initially wanted to come here, but a call had informed her that Jacquelin wished to see her. After some thought, she decided to oblige, her sole aim being to silence Jacquelin's prison gossip."Please walk faster, miss," the officer urged with suspicion. "You don't have much time for the visit. If you keep this pace, you won't have the chance to say what you want!"Renee's heart raced. She glanced at the officer, who was also scrutinizing her with an enigmatic look that hinted at recognition.Renee quickened her pace, following the officer.Soon, Jacquelin emerged in the visiting room.
