Engaged To The Billionaire After Betrayal의 모든 챕터: 챕터 21 - 챕터 30

Valentina's POV Each time I see or think about him, I feel the urge to do something rash; to hurt him for betraying me. As much as I don't want to take any revenge on him anymore, I am tempted to take back my words and do the needful, then maybe I will finally be happy. I don't like how I feel at the moment. The sinking feeling is back, probably because I am disappointed to have seen him today again, this time not with Brenda but with a different girl. That jolting is gone. All I feel for him now is pure hatred. I wish I could turn back the hands of the clock and make sure that our paths never crossed. I wished I wasn't that curious to know more about him which made me fall deeply in love with him. I wish I hadn't said yes to him when he asked me to become his girlfriend. Reluctantly, I drop my bag and take off my shoes before sitting quietly on the bed, ignoring my weak limbs. I ordered the maids to bring my bed back to my room even though it is still cold but I will manage. I

Valentina's POV Impressive is an understatement of Rocco's behavior tonight. First, he sent me a message for the very first time since we have crossed paths with each other and ended the text with a heart emoticon. Second, he was polite enough to tell one of the guards to drive me down here. Third, he got me flowers, apart from the necklace from last night which I haven't brought myself to try on yet. Fourth, he is being one heck of a gentleman. He is trying to make me forget Fred that easily by insisting on calling me Val. I can't help it but that name stirs up something in me that I can't figure out. It is not just anger or the remembrance of Fred. It is something unspeakable that I haven't figured out on my own yet. He was right in saying that I haven't gotten over Fred yet. If I had gotten over the idea, I wouldn't have cried last night. I didn't particularly cry. A tear actually rolled down my eyes. And I was quick to wipe it off my face because I already made a vow neve

Valentina's POV Rocco is holding grudges against me because of what I did to him last night. That is how it seems to me because all through the ride to his parent's mansion, he was quiet and back to that rude guy I know him to be. Well, I thought he was beginning to change but now I am damn sure he has several personality disorders. Why the hell will he act like he is cool with me this minute and then the next minute, he is aloof? He kissed me last night. I controlled myself from slapping him. I have always hated the idea of kissing another man who isn't Fred but Rocco kissed me last night unexpectedly. I don't know why I didn't stop him or slap him after I managed to push him away but I think it is because we are legally married and he can kiss me. I just don't like the idea personally. Besides, it was just an act as he said. A practice I mean. This way, if he tries to do something similar in front of his parents, I won't be caught unawares and I won't do something rash eithe

Valentina's POV I stare at my mom in horror as she adjusts in her seat with a look of guilt. My Father is also sitting, just like always opposite me, watching her too with an angry expression. I shouldn't have come here. My mother will never change from the woman she has always been. She had kept all of these in check simply because Father could provide for all her unnecessary demands. But now that he can barely buy her designer bags, shoes and clothes, she is hell-bent on frustrating his life. This man is barely holding up and this is how she wants to help him. She stretches her hand to touch me but I stand up abruptly, making her hand drop. My anger has increased ten folds. Probably because she made me yell at Rocco for no reason. I thought he was being selfish again, just like every other time when he cares about only himself and not me. This time, I was wrong. "Valentina, you should go home. It's getting late", My dad says after clearing his throat. "Rocco and I have no b

Rocco's POVI was mad at Valentina but the moment she lost consciousness, my anger disappeared and I found myself shouting at John to drive faster till we got to the hospital.The doctor attended to her and it wasn't really a big deal. She was only bleeding too much.I didn't want her to spend the night there so I carried her back into the car and we left for home. Deep in thought, I feel a movement beside me and she flutters her eyes open to see me staring.She was sleeping when we left the hospital but the doctor said she is fine."What happened?" She groans, closing her eyes and opening them again.I was so scared something bad was going to happen to her. But now I am relieved. She might be a handful but I care about her because she is my wife and her safety is my responsibility."We are going home", I reply and look away. I don't know if she remembers how it all happened and the fact that we are just coming back from the hospital by this time or maybe she doesn't want to talk abo
