All Chapters of Saved by the secret billionaire : Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Millie's POVI watched as Gabrielle sighed, preparing for another physio session. It had been two weeks since she started, but there had been no results. " Do I really have to go there? After each session, I feel exhausted but there is no improvement, " she whined as I helped her to dress. It became our daily routine, and I could only roll my eyes when she was not looking. We both knew how this conversation was going to end. " Yes, you have to go. The result won't happen by themselves. If you want to walk again, you must bite your teeth and let them do their job." Gabrielle's head lowered. " What if I never walk again? What is the point of all of that? We both know this may never happen." This was the part I hated the most. I was scared that one day, my friend would lose her whole hope and give up. " It will happen," I whispered, hoping my voice would not break. " How can you be so sure about that?" Gabrielle looked me straight in the eyes. " I do not know!" My voice betrayed me

Millie's POV I brushed my hand over Alex's bare chest. It was so lovely to be together again. We spent a lazy morning, leaving bed only to get snacks or drinks. I wished this day could last forever. " Gabrielle's physio is going great," I said, placing my head on Alex's chest and listening to his steady heartbeat. " Brian is helping her every day. They became inseparable," my husband replied, playing with my hair. He was right. Since Gabrielle was discharged from the hospital and returned to the lake house, Brian spent almost all his free time there. He enjoyed helping my friend with her therapy. Aside from that, they spent a lot of time talking, laughing, and watching movies. I could tell Gabrielle was getting attracted to Brian, even if she called it friendship. I knew she was careful after Michael's betrayal. When I cursed Gabrielle's ex-boyfriend, Alex only smiled mischievously and mumbled about karma. I only hoped that this karma would hit him hard. This man deserved not

Millie's POV I stretched my arms, relaxing the muscles. The last two weeks were crazy, but it was fun craziness. I was initially reluctant when Alex offered me a position in his company, but now, I was slowly changing my mind. This place offered me more than I could expect. The projects were demanding, and I loved it. I was coming back home exhausted, but I could not be happier. Of course, at first, some of the workers were giving me side-eye, but it was nothing I hadn't experienced before. This field is male-dominated, and they often struggle with women's presence. It is even worse when the woman is in charge because what can she know. It took me a while to prove to them that I was something more than just a pretty face, and I knew my job. Since then, our work has gone smoothly. I was also glad that Brian kept his word, and most of my father's ex-employees found new jobs in his growing company. Some decided to try their luck in other fields, and I could not stop them fro

Alexander's POV My hands were shaking when I kneeled on the floor. " Maybe it is not hers," John said slowly, trying to calm me down, but I knew that this blood belonged to my wife. She got attacked in a place where she should always be safe, and I had no idea who did it and why. But I knew I would make them pay for it. But now I have to find out about my wife. I prayed for her to be safe as I looked around the apartment. My hand baulked as I noticed that someone had touched her stuff. Our photo together disappeared. " Alex," John called my name. I returned to the kitchen, where my friend stood with a piece of paper. " I think someone left it for you to find." " You want your woman back? Prepare money," I read a note, and my rage rose. Someone hurt my wife to get my money? I would give them everything to have her back. " I think we should call the police," John suggested, pointing to my hand. " Call Adam, I do not want anyone else involved." If I could trust someo

Millie's POV." Can you stop doing that?" I asked Gabrielle, who glanced at me confused. " Doing what?" " If you keep crumpling your dress like that, you will look like cotton candy after the expiry date. Is that how you want to look at your wedding?" I pointed to her hands, which were squeezing the delicate fabric. Gabriell immediately released her dress, but she still had no idea what to do with her hands. " I am sorry, I am just nervous." " I haven't noticed," I replied, giggling. Gabi was pacing around the room for the last twenty minutes, and it took much of my strength to stop her from biting her perfectly manicured nails. " What if he changed his mind and won't show up?" My friend glanced at me, her eyes full of panic. " He will show up. If not for you, then to check if all that money he put in this wedding was well spent, " I joked, but Gabi only raised her brow. " That is not funny," she said slowly. " Well, it was pretty funny, actually. And look, you stopped pacing.
