All Chapters of Married On Paper To The Billionaire: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

“Please, stay. You can go back home tomorrow.”Emilia smiled and snuggled deeper into Kane’s arms. “I didn’t tell my parents that I’d be sleeping over here.”“I’m sure they’ll understand if you don’t show up tonight. It’s not like you’re a teenager with a curfew.”She giggled. “Still…”He held her tighter as if to let her know that he wasn’t ready to let her go. They were in his bed, recovering from the hottest makeup sex in the history of mankind.“I think you should move back here,” he said wistfully.“As what?”“As a part of my family. You were a Beaumont once, remember?”“That was then.”“Meaning?”“You know what I mean.”“Can we start over? And this time, we’ll have a proper relationship. We’ll go on dates

When she woke up, her eyelids felt heavy as if she’d been sleeping all day. She lifted herself to a sitting position and groaned with the effort because her back was sore.“You’re awake,” a man whispered.She turned to her right and saw a deliciously handsome man sitting on the chair beside her bed. He was staring at her as if she was an angel descending from heaven.He was dressed in a sky-blue polo shirt and blue jeans. His black wavy hair was badly in need of a trim and his hazel eyes glowed with awe.“What are you doing here?” She asked him.“I’ve been waiting for you to wake up,” he replied in a deep baritone voice.He reached for her hand, but she shrank away from him. What a creep! It wasn’t enough that he’d sat there and watched her sleep, now he wanted to touch her too.“Are you ok?” He asked.“I should be asking you that question. Why

“What the hell just happened?”“Emilia, calm down. There’s a perfectly sensible explanation for why Kane did that.”“I’m listening.”Lillian sighed. “Look, it’s deeper than you think, but let’s just say Kane did what he had to do to save everybody’s asses.”“I don’t think I’m part of the ‘everybody’ you’re talking about. I just got thrown under the bus on national TV and you’re telling me my ass got saved. How?”“Kendra’s family was blackmailing us.”“Us?”“Yes. The entire Beaumont family. She knows things about us that will ruin our reputation if the public ever got wind of them.”“Hold on. You mean you guys used me as the sacrificial lamb to save yourselves?”“Stop being dramatic, Emilia. This will blow over quickly. There’s a new

“It’s so good to hear from you again, Emilia. How are you?”“Annoyed most times, but I’m fine. What about you?”“I miss you,” he blurted out. “I know I shouldn’t say that but it’s true. I miss you a lot.”Crap! Maybe this phone call was a mistake.“I shouldn’t have called you, Matt,” she said softly.“Please, don’t say that. I didn’t mean to offend you. I know you and Kane are married again, I was just saying…”“It’s fine. I’m not offended. I just don’t want you to think that I was trying to get back with you again. I just felt like talking to someone who isn’t heavily invested in my current situation.”“I understand. I wasn’t expecting to leave your husband for me either. I know that’s impossible.”She chuckled. “I still love him but I’m

“We will not be threatened into silence,” Joyce Banks said to the interviewer. “My daughter must get justice. The Beaumonts must pay for causing her death. She didn't deserve that.”“What do you want them to do for you?” The interviewer asked calmly.“I want compensation. Kendra was the breadwinner of our family. Her father has been terminally ill for years, her brother has been in and out of rehab and she was the one paying for that.”“Ok…”“I can’t work as much as I used to do because of my frail health,” Joyce continued. “Kendra provided for all of us and we never lacked whatever we wanted. Now, she’s gone. The least Kane Beaumont can do is to compensate us accordingly for our loss!”“Please, turn that thing off,” Elsie said distastefully.Lillian picked up the TV remote and switched off the 75-inch HD screen. She too was tired of listening to Joyce’s endless ranting.“They’re not going to stop, are they?” Emilia asked wearily. “They’ll continue to be a thorn in our flesh.”“This m
