All Chapters of The Billionaire's Revengeful Contract Marriage: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

CHAPTER FOURTH ONE~NORA~I got outside the building and picked a cab to the venue we had agreed to meet. I tried to stay put and not make the driver wonder the reason for my panic. Soon, he stopped me at the place I had asked him to, and I paid him before alighting from the cab. My feet and hands were wobbling so badly that I was scared that I might fall. I tried to steady my movement so I wouldn't resolve into falling against my will and wish. I found somewhere secluded to hide myself a bit by the coffee shop. I looked around for Chris, but he wasn't anywhere near. Why would it take anyone so long to just get out of his office and stroll down here? I just had a feeling that all wasn't well, and I have been trying to shove the feelings aside, ever since I walked out of the house. I felt as though something had gone wrong already. My heart was pounding in my chest as I checked her watch for the umpteenth time. Chris was late, and I was starting to get even more worried. What if som

CHAPTER FORTY-THREE~NORA~I ended the call, and a sense of satisfaction washed over me. I had done it! I had outsmarted Allison, and she hadn't even seen it coming. I couldn't help but feel a little smug about it, and I allowed myself a moment of pride. Then, the reality of the situation sets in.What if she decided to take revenge? She would want to. But I wouldn't care. I should relish in the moment and not let anything distract me for now. I heard a knock on the door. It interrupted my celebration, yet I had to attend to it. I walked towards the door knowing fully well that it was my kids, or at least one of them. Immediately I opened the door, I saw Aria standing outside the door and staring into my eyes. "What do you want honey?" I asked. I wanted her to just state her worries and leave, so I would go back to my celebration, but it didn't seem like she wanted to leave at all. She pushed the door and walked into my room. I made sure I closed the door before returning to meet

CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE AIDEN Ethan rushed down the stairs when he heard Nora's faint shriek before she passed out. Her kids also rushed out, and the domestic servants were not left out. The kid's nanny saw the expression on my face and the signal I gave her. Quickly rushed to the kids and carried them upstairs. I could hear Aria questioning the nanny as the three walked upstairs. "Did grumpy man hurt, Mommy? What has grumpy man done to our mom? Is she going to die?" Ethan quickly called the ambulance, and they helped us carry Nora to their car. Then, they drove off to the hospital. I and Ethan got into my smaller car, and Ethan toom the stirring as we both drove behind the ambulance. We finally got to the hospital and alighted from the car. I stood in the hospital parking lot, my mind racing. Ethan stood next to me, a worried look on his face. I couldn't believe what had just happened. Nora was rushed into the hospital in a bed and was called Rory immediately. The ambulance arrived

CHAPTER FORTY-SEVENAIDEN I sat at my desk, trying to focus on the work in front of me. But it was difficult. My mind kept wandering to Nora. It had been two weeks since she had been in a coma, and I was starting to feel hopeless. And to make matters worse, sales for my company were plummeting. It wasn't getting any better. I was starting to feel like everything was falling apart.As I stared at the numbers on my computer screen, my heart sank. How was I going to turn this around? For how long was it going to continue this way?I couldn't take it anymore. I gathered my things and decided to leave work early. As I walked out of my office, I checked my wristwatch, and it was almost time for the kids to close for the day. I decided to pick the kids up from school myself.As I stepped into the office of my secretary, she saw me leaving with my briefcase in my hand and made to stand up. I knew she wanted to help with my briefcase, but I wasn't in the mood, and I didn't want to stress h

CHAPTER FORTY-NINEThe atmosphere in the hospital room was somber and tense. The beeping of the machines was the only sound in the room. I slowly opened my eyes, confused and disoriented. My mind was fuzzy, and I had no idea at first where I was. I looked around the room, my vision still a bit blurry. I saw the faces of nurses hovering over me, and then I saw the faces of my family. They were all looking at me with relief and worry in their eyes. It was a lot to take in and a I felt overwhelmed."Hello, Nora," one of the nurses said, smiling at her. "Welcome back."I was having a hard time processing what was happening. It was all so surreal.My kids were stunned and short of words as well. Immediately, I turned my gaze to them, they jumped on me excitedly, and I couldn't help but hug them passionately.While my kids were hugging me and telling me how happy they were that I was awake, I couldn't help but notice that Aiden was nowhere to be seen. I wondered where he was and why he wa
