All Chapters of My Stone-Hearted Billionaire Husband: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Like a queen living in her new castle, Kourtney reveled in the thrill of the Serenity Villa on her first day as the young mistress of the manor. The grandeur of the estate was overwhelming, with its sprawling gardens, luxurious furnishings, and breathtaking views. It was so fucking gorgeous! It was a far cry from the Allen villa she had lived almost all her life. Matter of fact, the Allen family villa, no matter how grand it seemed, looked so mediocre and ancient compared to this! Kourtney couldn't help but feel a wave of excitement, wondering how she had ended up in this situation. She had always been a simple girl, content with her modest life. However, fate had a funny way of intervening, and now she was living in a lavish mansion as the wife of the city’s wealthiest and most powerful Billionaire. Everything felt so unreal! But at the same time, there was a nagging doubt in the back of her mind. Wasn’t this all too good to be true? She wanted to run! She wanted to stay! As

Luke leaned forward, his gaze piercing into Kourtney's soul. “The Allen corporation is on the verge of collapse. We need help, and you can provide that, Kourtney.”“And what does that have to do with me? You didn’t even let me work there anyway, so how on earth am I supposed to help?” Kourtney's gaze hardened with contempt as she locked eyes with her father.Her dreams of contributing to the family legacy, of proving her worth within the walls of their company, had been mercilessly dashed time and time again.Luke's excuse after her graduation had been a cruel twist of fate - her degree in events management was deemed unworthy of the family business, while Kathlyn, who pursued that of a scientific field, was deemed more suitable and had been lauded and supported to join the company.She had been relegated to the sidelines while Kathlyn was ushered into a managerial position in the Finance department.The hypocrisy of it all made Kourtney's blood boil, but she swallowed her anger, bury

Kourtney's eyes widened in a mixture of guilt and shame as she tried to turn away, hiding the evidence of her pain."It's... it’s nothing, just a little accident," she muttered, her voice barely above a whisper.Sebastian's heart clenched at her obvious distress, a surge of protectiveness and worry flooding through him. To think he was rushing home to see the pretty face of his wife, not knowing it had already been messed up and bruised.The raw agony etched on her features hit him like a punch to the gut. Even her swollen eyes meant she had been crying for long, and the sight pierced through his heart like a knife, seeing his vibrant wife reduced to a shell of herself.Her cheeks were inflamed and discolored - a stark contrast to her usual radiance.“Who did it?” he rasped.“Uh??“I said, who did it?”“Uhmmm…. It's no one. No one did it, okay? I... I said it was an accident!” Kourtney stammered a lie through her teeth.She had assumed the man would be back home late and probably woul

Sebastian, seated behind his desk, regarded her coolly. "Ah, my dear Wife. Always a pleasure to see you, especially under such... dramatic circumstances."“What did you do to my family? This... this sabotage. It's your doing, isn't it?" Kourtney wasted no time for pleasantries and cut straight to the chase.Sebastian leaned back in his chair, a smirk playing on his lips. "My, my, such accusations. And here I thought we were starting to get to know each other better."Kourtney gritted her teeth at his obvious childish banter during a serious confrontation.“You… Just cut the crap. You know exactly what I'm talking about.”Sebastian's smirk widened. "Ah, yes. The little incident with your father that you refused to tell your HUSBAND about. Quite the scene. Wasn't it? But rest assured, my dear, that was merely a taste of what's to come."“That’s…. That's what all this is about? You're destroying everything my family has worked so hard to build just because my father lost his temper for a

Kourtney's heart ached at her father's words, the pain evident in his voice. She could see the turmoil in his eyes, as she knew he was a proud man who barely ever admitted his mistakes. But now…. Now he was doing that in front of everyone.Taking a deep breath, she responded. “I forgive you, Dad. It's okay!”Luke visibly sagged with relief, his shoulders relaxing as he absorbed his daughter's words. He never thought it would actually be this EASY!So easy!!!He reached out quickly and enveloped Kourtney in a warm embrace, further proving their relationship was good again.Kourtney was taken aback at first. She couldn't remember the last time she hugged her dad. This man who had never truly cared enough to embrace her for as long as she could remember was doing so now in front of everyone.She felt bitter-sweet!Seeing Kourtney’s compassionate response to Luke, the rest of the Allens present, except Kathlyn, started approaching, asking for forgiveness concerning the previous incident a
