All Chapters of Reclaimed by the Billionaire : Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

Xavier~"Xavier, what are you doing here? Let's go." I was standing in the car parking lot and watching Bella's car leave the court premises."Did you ask the judge to schedule the hearings for both cases on the same dates, Dad?" I questioned him as I got in the car."Do you think that I need to use such a cheap trick?" He lifted his eyebrows in my direction."No, Dad, I didn't mean to offend you; I am just asking you to confirm." I gave a shoulder shrug."No, I don't know, but I am glad she has to choose one case now. She is entangled in a big, complicated situation now that she has to miss one court hearing that day." Even though his smile did not extend to his eyes, Dad still tried to fool himself as his lips curled into a smile.I am well aware that Dad is not happy with this complicated situation at all, but he is compelled to protect Lincon, and like him, I am also compelled and trapped in my own words. Her eyes showed me the broken pieces of her heart, but even if I wanted to,

Xavier~"James, what are you doing here in the court? Where is Bella?" I questioned him in confusion as I noticed him seated in Bella’s chair.When Bella failed to return from her lunch break, the courtroom erupted into murmurs and uneasy glances. This time, I was sure the judge would penalize her for her tardiness. The judge entered, her stern gaze sweeping across the room, and gestured to begin the proceedings. Her frown deepened when she noticed Bella’s absence."My lord, we will be jointly prosecuting this case for the remainder of the hearing session, as my colleague was forced to leave due to an emergency." James rose from Bella’s seat, his voice steady as he requested permission to proceed.My chest tightened as I saw Victor sitting next to him, dressed in a lawyer’s suit. What’s he doing in court? Upon seeing him, my eyebrows furrowed in disbelief. Before presenting the evidence to prove Jonathan's guilt, Victor glanced at me, his expression heavy with frustration and disapp

Xavier~"Bella, please don't say this; I am genuinely sorry for my behavior." I held her hand to stop her from leaving the courtroom. My heart was drowning in guilt after seeing the real face of Lincon. I never imagined that he would go to such extreme measures to achieve success and financial gain, such as joining Jordan Lucas' drug supply company."Xavier, sorry isn't enough for the wounds you caused on my heart." She turned to face me, but her eyes remained fixed on the floor instead of my face."I understand that apologizing is insufficient, Bella, and I am willing to accept any form of retribution for my errors." I lowered my head in embarrassment.Her slow, painful voice was like a needle piercing my heart. "Don’t think any penalty is sufficient for the hurt you caused me; therefore, if that’s the case, I want to cause you the same suffering." Suddenly, a hint of malice crept into her tone."Bella, you already know that I am not as strong as you are, so please don't even consid

Xavier~"Xavier, did you call Bella and ask her to return home?" Dad questioned me about Bella as we sat at the dining table for breakfast. His swollen, puffy eyes gave me the impression that he didn't sleep well last night. I don't want to aggravate him further by informing him about Bella's response. How can I explain to him that she broke off all contact with us and now refuses to even meet her son?I don't believe that she could be so angry with me that she refused to meet even Alan. I don't think I made such a severe mistake that she couldn't forgive me and return home.Dad's voice carried a sadness that stung. "Xavier, why are you quiet? Didn't you talk to her?" His voice brimmed with eagerness.I don't want to break his heart by telling him the truth, but I can't lie to him anymore."Dad..." I fidgeted with my fingers nervously, trying to gather the courage to tell him the truth."Mama, finally you have returned!" Alan's excited voice broke through the silence. I turned to lo

Xavier~"Victor, why did you go to plead with her when I asked you not to request her to return home?" I stood in front of his room door to prevent him from entering."Xavier, I feel alone in this house without her, and as a family member in the Thompson family, I must take care of everyone." He crossed his arms on his chest, his defiance clear."What did she say to you, then?" I asked, my voice softening with a glimmer of optimism. Given her admiration for Victor, I allowed myself to hope—maybe, just maybe, she consented to come back after hearing his request."She informed me that she would never return home, and she also prohibited me from visiting her." He lowered his head sorrowfully. "She also discovered my deception." His slow, regretful voice conveyed the deep hurt he was feeling at that moment."Victor, don't feel sad; I am confident that one day she will forgive me and return to this house." I patted his shoulder to comfort him, though I wasn't sure if I was comforting him
