All Chapters of Billionaire's Sweetheart : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Leah's POVGiving me a whole year wouldn’t be enough to explain how the past months have been. As I lie on the bed in Xavier’s arms, I cannot believe this is happening. During our wedding vows, he made it very clear this marriage was only on paper. Though there is nothing to prove yet, I feel he has warmed up to me a little and that is enough for me. The past few days have been too good to be true and my heart is drowning in fear that everything might fall apart.I get up to take a shower before he wakes up. As the hot water falls on me, It feels so good. Staying here for a bit wouldn’t be such a bad idea but then again we have work to do.Oh Shit.“Xavier, are we going back home?” I ask with my head slightly peeping through the half-opened sliding door.“What do you mean?” He asks lazily as he rolls on the bed, certainly not interested in waking up.“What is there to mean about going home?”“Leah please, it's too early. We will go home later after work.’’‘’What am I going to wear? I

Xavier's POVMy feelings are all over the place and I have no strength left to deal with this shit. Early this morning I left Leah home without an explanation. I shouldn't have but I did it and Instantly regretted it. While on my way here, I almost turned back to pick her but I changed my mind. My hope is this sign will put her mind straight so that she opens up. The most painful thing is finding out about a secret from an enemy and clearly, she has a number of them.Looking at the phone calls, the events, and the surprise visits all seem to be a message to silently threaten her but I don't understand why she has decided to fight this on her own. Today's board meeting is tough but I decided to let Leah take the lead so she can show her skills. Am very well aware that the has been working on an investigation and had all footage from the last ten years sent to her. I don't know if she went through them or found something solid but I trust her and that is enough for me. The atmosphere

Xavier's POV I stare at Kendra as she drops a bomb on me. Standing confidently outside my office she smiles as though she just gave me news about Christmas. What does she mean Leah is pregnant?I am not shocked because we talked about it and I really want a child. Yes, the baby boy will save my company but what if it turns out to be a girl? I haven't thought about it along those lines and I feel like an asshole for thinking of my flesh and blood as a way of stabilizing my wealth."I know." I lie straight to her face without even thinking twice about it."Do you?" she asks while cocking her eyebrow as if calling me for my bullshit but that's my business and I don't want anyone else in it."Is that why you rushed all the way here? To tell me that my wife is pregnant?" "Yes, it's great news. I wanted to share it with you in person."A few weeks ago I would have even smiled back at her because I was quite fond of her but not anymore. I am more aware of her intentions since Leah mentione

Xavier's POV Two weeks have passed since I found my wife in a coma. It saddens me that we had lost our child and not only because the child was going to stabilize my legacy. As I sit in my office, I can't help but think about how Leah is doing back at home. Avoiding the pain that comes with it, I haven't decided what to do or how to react because a part of me feels like punishing her for being reckless. Fighting within myself, the vibration of my phone pulls me out of my zone. I stare at the screen and Santino's name pops up sending a rush of anger inside me. I ignore it.But he doesn't stop calling, and after the fifth ring, I decided to pick up."Xev man, look I am so sorry about what happened. It is all my fault for bringing Sandra over. I am truly sorry."For a long time now, I have never allowed anyone to be as close to me as Santino and he too is only close enough to speak freely around me. But after the stunt his fuck buddy pulled, I cut him off."Look, give me a chance to ma

Leah's POV I stare in horror as Xavier points the gun right into John's heart. My greatest fear has been getting him involved in my mess and no matter how hard I have tried it has been difficult because these people just won't let me be. As soon as Dave picked me up a few hours ago, I was so disturbed that my thoughts were not in place. I didn't even realize that I was in a moving car until my phone vibration brought me back to reality. Staring at my screen, I realize the one calling me is Sandra and I frown. I am not ready to speak to her. Her influence contributed to the loss of my child but then she meant well so I shouldn't blame her too much. The constant debate keeps me locked in a web of confusion. "Hello?""Hi hun, how are you today?""I just lost my child Sandra, how do you think I am?""I know and you don't know how sorry I am. There is nothing I can do to make it up to you?""How about giving me a new baby?""Why not just make a new one?" she laughs.Her free spirit des
