Lahat ng Kabanata ng Love At Last: Billionaire's Contracted Bride: Kabanata 91 - Kabanata 100

(Stephen's POV)I smiled as my eyes landed on Kendall's beautiful face as she lay calmly on the bed, undisturbed and a part of me wished she could be as relaxed as this once again. Honestly, It was heart-rendering watching her lost in thoughts and always scared like she used to be.I traced my hairline with my fingers, stroking it slowly as I resisted the urge to have her that morning. Just then my routine alarm went off, bringing me back from the fantasy world I had drifted into while thinking about the pleasurable nights Kendall and I had, had together. As I yawned, I wriggled myself out of bed, balanced on the floor, and stretched my hands and legs wide apart. Somehow, my stomach started to make very uncomfortable noises and I knew it was time to visit the restroom. I bent my back a bit as I held onto my stomach and I hurriedly dashed to the toilet to empty my bowel. Within a few minutes, I was done, and stepping out of the restroom, I walked to my bedroom to doff my pajamas int

(Jessica's POV)I recline on the sofa in front of the thirty-two-inch TV, munching a plate of homemade chocolate sandwiches as I stepped it down with a cup of freshly squeezed orange juice.The screen from the TV illuminated my smiling face as I enjoyed and laughed at every funny scene from my favorite show.Suddenly, I took a pause from eating as I recalled that Antonio had promised to come over. Tearing my gaze from the TV, I picked up my phone and checked the time to be sure. It was already four."Why is he not here yet?" I pondered as I dialed his number again for the umpteenth time, and I got no reply again.I tossed my phone and hissed as anger began to build up within me."Why is he not picking up my calls? I have always known that this old man was not to be trusted. I was only dancing to his tune and using him to take care of some of my basic needs for the time being.Trying to keep myself calm, I continued watching my TV show. As I sat on the sofa, my stomach began to react ba

(Frederick's POV)I supported my head in my hands as I sat on the cold, hard, metal bench inside the dimly lit holding cell. My heart pounded and my entire body swole in anger. The kind of anger that typifies a soon-to-explode volcano. I had never felt that kind of anger before.I was angry at Kendall and angry at Anna as well. I looked around, my fingers formed into a fist as I recalled Anna's words that I was going to have to spend three more days in this cell. Damn!! Once I'm out of this death hole, I'm coming for you, Kendall, and Stephen De La Cruz. I spat silently, grinning my teeth. "Oh! Look at this, the fancy man is angry." one of the locked-up prisoners, the huge one, jeered out loud. "Save it, bro! You are sticking with us. Were you expecting any miracle just because you are rich?" another scoffed. Everyone burst into a mocking laugh. I turned slightly and stared directly at the second speaker, firing triggers at him. All I wanted to do was smash his head to the wall.

(Antonio)"Wait, what?" I blurted as I came to a halt and my eyes popped out in shock. "You are what?""Frederick and I are in Mexico," Anna's familiar voice, which was filled with excitement, sounded at the other end of the phone.I exhaled deeply as I tried to maintain composure as workers strolled to and fro on the ground floor of the building. Recalling I was still standing right in the middle of the floor, I moved toward the extreme corner.I had just returned from supervising some production work at the company's warehouse and was walking toward the elevator when my phone rang."For goodness’ sake, what are you doing in Mexico and why did you not let me know you were coming?" I whispered, my face etched with a deep furrow."The second question is inconsequential because I am here already. I would answer the first but not on the phone. I would send you the address and room number of the hotel we lodged in." Anna answered, her voice revealing her displeased mood."Anna…." Before I

(Stephen's POV)I walked out of my office, my heart pounding with excitement due to the information I had just received about Jessica, and I felt a bit of worry due to the information about the missing funds."One case at a time, Stephen. This is not a hard nut to crack. We have seen and conquered tougher challenges and we will unwrap and conquer this, too." I reminded myself as I shrugged off the worries and hopped into the vehicle to go meet up Jeff, the tech guy.The evening sun cast long shadows on the city streets as I walked down and made my way to the designated meeting spot after parking my car in a safe parking lot.As I approached the dimly lit alley, I saw a figure leaning against the wall. It was him–the hacker. His piercing eyes and disheveled appearance made him seem like a character straight out of a cyberpunk novel. I took a deep breath and approached cautiously."Hey, good evening, I received your message. How did you do it?" I asked, trying to sound neutral as possib
