All Chapters of The Bastard Billionaire (English Version): Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

"Mom!" I cried out softly. "What's wrong, sweetheart?" she asked, surprised. "Ken and Dyson called me ugly," I reported. "Let them think whatever they want. You're beautiful, don't believe them," she said, gently stroking my hair. I nodded in agreement and released the hug, heading upstairs to rest. I often feel drained, easily tired even when doing nothing. "Raven!" I called out to him. Unable to sleep, I lay there scrolling through my phone. "Why are you shouting?" he asked. "Dyson and Ken said I'm ugly," I said tearfully. "Hahahaha, they said that?" he chuckled. "Yes. Am I really ugly?" I grumbled. "Hahaha, they're just joking. Let me talk to them. You're beautiful," Raven reassured me. "Your husband called!" I informed him. "Yeah, hahaha, we're together. He wants to see how you handle things," he chuckled again. I frowned even more hearing them laugh at me. Am I truly so unattractive? Alone, I stood before the full-length mirror. My body had grown larger, my cheeks a

**Warning: SPG content** "I'm too drunk now. Can we go home?" Miguel asked the woman he was with. "Your place or mine?" the woman asked. "My place. Can you drive for me?" Miguel asked his girlfriend. "Where is your place, babe?" the woman asked again. "Use my car; there's a GPS," Miguel answered simply. Miguel staggered to his feet but managed to walk. The woman couldn't support him as she was holding his ruined clothes. He covered himself. "Can I have a towel?" he asked, but no one noticed him, so he left. She drove Miguel to his mansion. They entered the guardhouse and parked in front of the mansion. Supporting him, she kissed him on the neck. The kiss was passionate, but not on the lips, down to the broken clothes of the woman in his future. They cried, walking into the mansion. Miguel picked up the girl. If Miguel moved, it seemed he wasn't drunk. Before they entered the mansion, falling flower vases caught their attention. "Aaaah!" "What's your problem?!!" Miguel shout

"Are you sure about this?" Raven asked as we walked towards her car. Raven had picked me up from the airport upon my return from the Philippines. Mom and Dyson had left first to avoid being seen with me; Dyson, being a secret agent, couldn't afford to have ties to someone like me, whose life was a tale that spanned across continents. As expected, there were numerous cameras and people posing as regular passengers. That's how the media operates. They thrive on sensational stories, and the return of Villanueva was a major headline. Speculation about the pregnancy of an heir to a major corporation swirled, and the man in question had disappeared. The pregnant man was the son of their business rival. Thus, the rumor mill churned, with many asserting that I was the pregnant woman who had left the country to give birth. It had been seven months since I left without a trace, leaving them to speculate. The plane ticket Miguel's father had provided wasn't used by me; I returned via a differe

"Moooom!" I called out excitedly as we arrived at Mama's farm. Miguel had sent everything he thought might be useful, though I wasn't really ill. At the time, I didn't want to believe it and I offered to make tea, but he declined. "What a morning to arrive!" Mom greeted us warmly as she watered her plants in this remote province of the Philippines. "He's been looking forward to seeing you. Thought you were a boy who wouldn't give up," Dyson teased, earning a playful smack from me. I hugged Mama tightly as she approached. Raven, Ken, Dyson, and Angela were chatting animatedly nearby. "Have you eaten yet?" Mom asked us. "Not yet! We've been missing your cooking. Aira hasn't eaten because she knew we were coming home. Come on, Aira, what's with that?" Dyson exclaimed, dodging a few pebbles I tossed his way. Mom, Raven, and Ken burst into laughter at our antics. Angela, meanwhile, was admiring the flowers as if seeing them for the first time. "You really are like siblings!" Mom rem

This was my first time back at the mansion since leaving, aside from seeing Ken. "Good day, ma'am. Welcome back," greeted the guard and some of the staff as I entered. I approached Mom and Dad to greet them with a kiss, and did the same with my siblings Shane, Jan, and May, offering a smile from across the table. "Where have you been? You've been gone for quite a while," Shane inquired. Did they really not know what had happened, or were they pretending? "Where's your child? Weren't you pregnant, or was that just a ploy to trap Miguel? Too bad it didn't work out. In the end, he'll marry me anyway!" Meriam interjected from behind. I sighed inwardly. As before, I didn't want to engage, especially not with her. "You were pregnant when you disappeared? But it's impossible to give birth in just 7 or 8 months," Shane observed, clearly unaware of the truth. I sighed again. "Congratulations, Shane and Jan. I'll make sure to attend your gender reveal party," I offered, handing Shane a
