All Chapters of Billionaire's Perfect Revenge: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

[MADDOX]“This makes no sense,” staring at the unlocked door of Zara’s apartment, I frowned to myself.“Maybe she left in a hurry?” Jade supplied from behind, although it wasn't hard to hear the uncertainty in her voice.“She would never leave her door unbolted like this. She isn’t that careless.” Zara was anything but careless. She was smart, guarded, and cautious. There was no way she would do something so stupid.“It’s possible she only went to some nearby place. Groceries?”Now, that was a possibility worth considering, but something still didn't add up.“Still doesn’t make sense. The second Danny sent me the location, we drove straight here. There’s no way she came home, did what she needed, and left in ten minutes. Something is not right.”“You’re thinking too much into this,” I heard her sigh, before she walked past me, grazed her manicured fingers at the new lock Zara had installed and looked around. “Ah, there it is,” she pointed at the CCTV cameras near the elevator. “We sho

The grin plastered on his face was as charming and diabolical as it always had been.But that wasn’t the reason my jaw had literally dropped to the floor.Fuck! What was he doing here? Didn’t he leave a while ago? I saw him with my own eyes.Wait. No. I only saw his car. I—dammit!He tricked me again.“What are you doing here?” I snapped, fingers curled into fists.Instead of being annoyed, he simply arched an eyebrow curiously. “To finish what we started.”“Do you have no shame?” I bristled. God, he made me mad. So mad. I wanted to throttle him. Why couldn’t he just leave me alone? Why was he so stubborn? “Why do you keep showing up after every time I cast off all your ridiculous proposals? Are you empty on the head? Have you lost your fucking mind? What the hell is your problem?”Silence fell over for a damn long minute. None of us even moved. The grin on Maddox’s face had disappeared—being replaced by a nasty curl at the corner of his mouth—but I wasn’t sure if that was a good thin

- PART II -*A Month Later*[MADDOX]“How’s she doing?” I asked, focused on the files on the table while mindlessly twirling the pen between my fingers.“The same!” Jade responded sternly with a poker face.Perhaps she was annoyed at me, too. Not that her being annoyed made any difference to me. But Zara hadn’t spoken a word to me ever since she signed the contract. Even though we live under the same roof, I hardly saw her. She wouldn't leave her room as long as I stayed. It wasn't like I didn't try, but no matter what I said, no matter how nicely I asked, the door of her room would remain closed on me.Obviously, she was angry. And if I were being honest, she had every right as well. I did cross a line. Forced her to sign that contract despite being aware that she was neither prepared nor willing. Perhaps that was the reason I decided to let her be for the time being. As long as I knew about her whereabouts, I was happy to give her as much space and time as she needed to come to term

“I knew that brain in your head wasn’t just there for the namesake,” she mocked, earning a scoff from me.“You really think the worst of me, don’t you?”“There’s nothing good about you, Maddox Richmond. Thousands of innocent lives must have been sacrificed to raise an evil like you.”She probably was right.I shrugged. “Either way, sure, I don’t have any problem with that.” Which was nothing but the truth. If she behaved well, there would be no reason to make things harder for her.When this time she looked at me, she seemed surprised. Perhaps she didn’t expect me to give up my trump card so easily. Little did she know that her best friend wasn’t the only one on the list of people I might easily destroy.“But I would expect the best performance and nothing less. To everyone in there, it should look like we are madly in love. We’d be expected to practice all kinds of things a couple does. Holding hands, hugging and kissing. Perhaps getting caught in the middle of a make-out…” I only ad

[ZARA]The fucker tricked me not once, but multiple times. For Christ’s sake, how could I have been so stupid?I tell you for sure though I wasn’t about to make any more fools of myself. He might have gotten his way with me every single time in the past, just because I let my heart fuck me up despite all the warnings my brain had been waving in my face. My unruly emotions destroyed me so frankly that I got myself into this hell of a situation without ever asking for it.How did I ever think that I could fall for a man like Maddox Richmond? He should have been the last person on this damn earth for me to envision my future with. In less than a ye, he completely wrecked me. He took away so much. From my childhood home to my mom’s shop, to my dignity, to my choices, to my freedom, to my future. Everything. He took away everything. As if except for his needs, desires, dreams and wants, nothing else mattered. No one else held any importance. He was such a selfish bastard who couldn’t get h
