All Chapters of The Billionaire's Kryptonite: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Lara woke up the following morning to an empty space beside her. Immediately, she furrowed her brows. Miguel's side of the bed was still neatly made.Did that mean he didn't come home? Disappointment washed over her as she realized he hadn't returned to sleep beside her, despite her anticipation of waking up to his kisses.But instead, she woke up alone in bed.She let out a deep sigh of disappointment before reaching for her phone. Perhaps he had sent her a message explaining his absence.There was none.She felt a pang of sadness. However, she convinced herself that Miguel had no obligation to explain himself for any reason.She was about to go back to sleep, feeling disheartened, when she heard Auntie Rosette's familiar knock. Shortly after, the old woman entered her room."Good morning, Miss Lara. I'm glad you're awake," she greeted her with a smile as she sat down beside her on the bed."Morning, Auntie," Lara replied, resisting the urge to ask for Migo immediately."I came to wa

"Miguel, I'm sorry. I wasn't able to come at once," Meredith approached Miguel and hugged him.Miguel gently patted her back in response. The woman let go and smiled at Lara."Hi, Lara… I hope you don't mind. I'm here for Grandma," she said to her in the softest tone, then she hesitantly approached her and gently hugged her.She shouldn't have done that. They weren't close, and the last time they met, she walked out.But Lara didn't utter a word. She forced a small smile.Despite the woman's sweet words, Lara thought she heard otherwise. "You didn't have to bother," Miguel told her before gently placing an arm around Lara's waist."How could I not come? Grandma is also like family to me," she said, seemingly responding to what Miguel said, but Lara noticed her eyes following her husband's hand on her waist."Migo, look at what Meredith brought for me," Cordelia interjected with a smile, pointing to the abundance of fruits beside her. "It's as if she wants me to open a fruit stand.""

Meredith stayed until dinner. If Cordelia hadn't indirectly sent her away, she might have forgotten that she needed to leave.So they were alone again after dinner."Are you okay, sweetheart?" Miguel asked. They were sitting on the bed, and he was behind her, softly kissing her neck and shoulders. "You look unwell. Are you feeling something?"She shook her head, turned to face him, and kissed his lips voluntarily, even though she didn't want to. She remembered he had kissed Meredith, and who knew what else they did after that kiss?But Lara also wanted to prove a point, that she was better at kissing. If possible, she wanted to please him in bed more than Meredith could.With that in mind, she became aggressive. She didn't care about the confusion on his face, which eventually vanished, replaced by intense passion.Lara didn't know she was capable of what she was doing. In the past, she would just shyly let Miguel be in control. But now, it was as if she was possessed.She didn't care

One dinner in the city's finest restaurant, and the business community was buzzing with news about Miguel Villareal and a mysterious young woman the next morning. Some claimed that he had broken off his engagement with Meredith Jones for a much younger beau. Various versions circulated, but the bottom line was that there would be no wedding between Meredith and Miguel because of her.But Miguel was quick to clear her name. Unlike the first issue when he didn't make a statement about him and Meredith Jones, this time he gave an exclusive interview to let everyone know that he was a married man. He confirmed that he was married to the woman he was seen with the previous night, but he still withheld information about Lara, especially her name.As soon as Miguel clarified the situation, Lara was bombarded with a series of messages and calls from Chester and Tasya. However, she didn't respond to any of them.When Lara agreed to dine with Migo, she was overwhelmed that he was ready to intro

"Oh my gosh! Is Lena alive all this time?!" Carlotta exclaimed, looking like she'd just seen a ghost."How, Miguel? That woman is dead! We all saw her being buried! Who is this woman?" Stefan was equally perplexed."She's not Lena! Her name is Lara, Stefan! Don't you all remember? Lena had a sister!" Grandma Cordelia answered, her patience wearing thin with her children."Sister? Oh, I remember now. That little brat who suddenly went missing! How did she grow up resembling her sister so much?" Sandra added."Did you have her face go through surgery, Miguel? Are you that desperate to bring her back?" Leonard joined the conversation."It's been seventeen years ago! How could you not get over her death until now?" said Stefan again."This is so ridiculous! What a shame! Are you so desperate to cling on to your position now?" Leonard remarked."All of you, stop this nonsense!" Grandma Cordelia ordered sternly. "Show some respect!""And you gave her the family heirloom, Mother?" Karen butt
