All Chapters of The Billionaire's Stubborn Bride: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

RUBYAs I lay on my hospital bed, thoughts raced through my mind after Archer's revelation. A part of me wanted to be angry, upset, and even violent. Yet, the reality sank in—I'm having a baby with him. I want to forgive him, but I seriously doubt his story. How can I confirm it? Should I question Sophie? Press him for more details? Or should I investigate?These thoughts consumed me until a light tap on my shoulder jolted me back to reality. It was the nurse, informing me about my discharge requirements and the need to register at the obstetrics clinic for regular checkups."Your husband is at the reception, filling out your discharge form and getting briefed on everything he needs to know. You need to come with me now so I can register you at the obstetrics clinic." She noticed my confused look, realizing I had completely forgotten I was in the hospital due to my pregnancy. "Mrs. Ruby, you do remember you're pregnant, right?"Once again, my current reality hit me—I was about to beco

RUBYI'm curious why he's avoiding my questions and keeping a secret. He promised to tell me everything when we got home, and I'm very hopeful. I pray he doesn’t change his mind and decide not to tell me anymore. Predicting Archer's behavior these days is like trying to forecast the weather, but there's a greater chance of being wrong.Finally arriving at our private condo in the estate, I hurriedly got out of the car, slammed the door, and stormed inside, ignoring the stream of workers there to welcome me. I just wanted to be left alone to clear my head. I quickly strode upstairs, my foot thumping loudly. Archer kept calling after me, but I couldn't care less.I jumped onto my bed, sighing with relief. I wondered why Julia didn't return to the hospital. Did Archer send her away, or did my father scare her off? I searched in my purse for my phone, but it was with my husband. Getting up, I opened the door, and he rushed toward me, enveloping me in a tight hug, rolling me around as if c

RubyI lay still on the bed, a smile on my lips as I stared at the white ceiling above me. I’d sent Archer home to go freshen up, but not after teasing him that he stank. But to be honest, I didn’t want him going after Diavolo and causing trouble.I shrugged off the thought of Diavolo finding me. Even I wasn’t certain I was safe from him but I had to calm Archer down somehow. Put his mind at ease, at least.The thought of what Julia said about Diavolo hovered around in my mind.Who would have thought, someone I once loved with all my heart was a huge scam! No wonder papa never accepted him.I sighed and shut my eyes.The door opened and I turned towards it. Two nurses walked in, they were both dressed in green scrub. One had on a face mask that prevented me from seeing even the bridge of her nose while the other carried a little metal tray containing some hospital equipment. They both walked to my bedside.“Good day Mrs. Petraki” The nurse carrying the tray greeted with a broad smile.

ArcherWhile the CIA agents were working round the clock, trying to track the text message in every way possible, Aolo was on a call with Ruby’s sister, Ethel. He informed her about the kidnap and promised to keep her updated if there was any progress.I stood up from the edge of the table where I sat and made my way to the window. I stared out at the busy road below and sighed.Breathing in the wet air, I shut my eyes and tucked my hands in my pocket.This whole process was taking too much time, we’ve been here all day and still, no progress.I really didn’t want the day passing without finding Ruby. I felt helpless and useless.I had to do something but right now I had no idea what to do.My phone rang, I checked who the caller was.Jordan.I picked up and placed the phone on my left ear.“Hey bro” His voice came in from the other end. “I just got to the hospital now, our driver told me what happened”I sighed again.“Do you have any idea of who it might have been? Have they contact

ArcherLying on my bed and staring at the ceiling, I kept tapping my phone impatiently. It was already noon, and I still hadn't received any call or text message about the meetup address. Time was ticking, so I checked my phone for the hundredth time, but there was still nothing.In an attempt to distract myself, I stood up and headed over to the wall table where a bottle of tequila sat. I poured myself a glass and downed it in a second. Pouring another and then another, I found myself on my fourth glass when my phone beeped on the bed. I hurriedly rushed over to check it. It was a text message: 'Savannah Park, come alone.'I grabbed my car keys and rushed out of the room, making my way downstairs, ignoring the greetings of the workers as I headed to the car parked outside. Within minutes, I was speeding out of my house and onto the main road. I picked up my phone from the passenger seat and dialed Aolo. He answered after a few rings."Archer, where have you been?" His voice, filled w
