Semua Bab The Billionaire's Dilemma: Bab 71 - Bab 80

"This exactly is your problem, Damien. Tell me why you are blaming Aella for everything that happened. Can you imagine what she will be going through right now? Her mother tried to seduce her husband, and the husband blames her for it. Can't you see how ridiculous this sounds? You should be on her side comforting her; after all, you made her accept Maggie," Elena fired back."I just wanted her to have a mother; am I to be blamed for that as well?" Damien questioned."Look, you did the right thing; Maggie is the one at fault, not Aella. I understand how you feel, Damien, but I need you to know that I trust Aella, and you should do the same too. If she said she was at the hospital, you should believe her. You could also visit the hospital to verify that. And about seeing her childhood friend and not coming back that night, would you prefer she died on the road back to you to satisfy your pride?" Elena questioned."It's not a pride, Mother; I told her clearly not to go because she wasn't

Mrs. Thompson begged her not to leave, but Becca was adamant and determined to leave with the baby. She told her everything her son did, but Mrs. Thompson did not believe her. Because Maggie had already poisoned her mind about Becca, she snatched the baby from Becca and threw her out of the house.Becca was devastated. She visited different non-governmental organizations to help her get her daughter back, but she was no one, with no money and nothing, so nobody helped her. Becca decided to work; she did all sorts of menial jobs to raise a little money. After working for three months, she took the money to an organization to help her get Aella back. When they decided to pursue the case, they went to the house, and Becca found out that they had all moved. Mrs. Thompson, Maggie, and John were nowhere to be found, and all her efforts were in vain.Becca went crazy; she walked from streets to streets searching for them, but it was futile. The organization also ran away with her money."I a

"Oh my goodness, Chanel just launched this bag, and you got it for me." Marie purred; she was sitting on Seth's legs, who had a smug grin on his face."Yes, baby, you deserve the very best. Go through everything. Is there anything you want? Did I miss anything?" Seth asked as he pulled the gift bags closer to Marie.Marie was elated. Ever since her path crossed with that of Seth, her life has changed. He showered her with gifts unconditionally, and everything she demanded, he gave.Marie went through the bags; all the items inside were designer and quality stuff."So Marie, tell me, what's the latest update? What do I need to know?" Seth asked softly.Marie stalled immediately. She had been collecting gifts and money from Seth in exchange for information from the company, but Marie couldn't bring herself to do it, not out of loyalty but out of greed. She still wanted Damien, and she felt like she had a chance with Damien now that his relationship with Aella was going to get Rocky due

Marie took sick leave from the office for two days, and when she returned to the office, she heard some snippets of what was happening between Damien and Aella.Marie was elated; she knew her plans worked perfectly fine, and now was the time to strike.She was also glad that she had not given any details to Seth, despite how much he persuaded her. She was going to play both sides and gain from it as well.Marie decided to attest to what the colleagues were saying, so she left the office and stopped by a café. She bought some things she knew Damien liked and packed them up in a box.When she returned to the office, she decided to work till noon, so she could take the box to Damien's office. Marie kept on checking the time, and immediately it was noon. She got up, carried the box, and left the office, heading to Damien's office.Meanwhile, Aella and Damien were having a heated argument; although they were not raising their voices, thousands of messages were passed through their words."

After Damien dropped Elena off at the hospital, he returned to his mother's house, where he met Aella watching a show."Thank you for driving her to the hospital," Aella uttered softly."You speak like she is not my mother; what are you doing here? Do you know how much I searched everywhere just because of you?" Damien asked as he walked towards the bar. "I know she is your mother, but she is my mother-in-law as well; I don't think I need your permission to see her," Aella replied."You should have told me you were coming here and saved me the stress of being worried," Damien countered."You? Worried? For what reason? You can drop the fake concern, Damien; I know you do not care about me in any way. Do just drop it," Aella responded as she sat up straight."You are right, I do not care about you, but you are still my responsibility; you can't just leave the house whenever you like," Damien threw back.Aella was getting fed up with the whole conversation; whenever she was in a room wi
