All Chapters of Mysterious Husband is Billionaire: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

"Just a petty reason?" Netty hung her head, silent. Louis, however, was impatient. He grabbed her hand and pulled her towards a nearby cafe."Wait! Are you sure about this?" Netty asked, resisting his pull."Yeah, I guess we haven't eaten anything since this morning."Netty was indeed hungry. Besides, who could refuse a free meal from a rich guy like Louis? It would definitely save her some cash.The atmosphere was awkward. Netty barely touched her food. "What's wrong? Eat before it gets cold. Or, do you want me to help you finish it?" Louis tried to lighten the mood with a joke.Netty remained silent, slowly picking at her food. His words earlier were gnawing at her. But distancing herself from someone close… that seemed like the better option. She knew she was being selfish, but to keep her job, she'd decided to become a stranger in a strange land.By the time they finished, Louis was different. He was cold, distant. He didn't even open her car door or say goodbye when he drop

"Louis, thank you for today," Netty finally spoke, breaking the silence that had stretched through their journey from the restaurant.Louis responded with a warm smile. Netty herself felt adrift, unsure of herself, almost brazen in her renewed proximity to the man she'd previously forbidden from seeing her.Back at Netty's lodging, Louis broached a delicate subject. "Netty, could our friendship blossom into something more? I'm curious to hear your thoughts."Netty was speechless, her mind reeling. She had no immediate answer.Louis continued, "I won't pressure you for an answer now. Take your time. Go inside and rest. We can talk tomorrow."Tomorrow? Yes, they'd be seeing each other more often, but that didn't mean Netty was ready to answer his question then. ***"Ouch!" Netty yelped as her door burst open, her head colliding with the frame."Netty...""Why did you just barge in? At least knock!" she grumbled.The man before her stood there, unfazed. Netty realized she was only i

Clara presented her burgundy dress, retrieved from the closet, to her husband with a somber expression.Seeing her face, Joe furrowed his brows. "What's wrong with the dress?" He took it, examined it, and discovered a tear at the corner. He hadn't expected his hours-long search to end like this. His gaze softened as he watched his wife lamenting her favorite dress. "Forget it," he said, picking up a dress from the pile of clothes scattered on the floor. "You can buy another one. Look, I think this one's nice too. You always look stunning in everything you wear," he added patiently.Clara glanced at it without much interest. "Yeah, it's pretty, but I've worn it to the annual event too many times."Suddenly, an idea struck Clara. She opened a shopping app on her phone and smiled. "I think I can still buy some clothes before our guests arrive. We still have time before 8 PM."Joe was speechless. Watching his wife add several fashion items to her cart, he asked, "Why are you buying so

"Giselle, can you give me some money? I have a social event today, and I can't show up empty-handed!" Her mother-in-law's voice, sharp and demanding, cut through the air from the family room.Giselle braced herself. Her mother-in-law stood in the doorway, her hand outstretched, looking like she was collecting a debt. "Mother…" Giselle began, but her mother-in-law cut her off."Give it to me now. Didn't your grocery store sales increase this week? That's because I helped promote it.""I know, but the money I gave you yesterday…" Giselle protested weakly."Yesterday? Are you kidding? How much did you even give me? It wouldn't last long, Giselle. And you know a woman's needs are endless. I need a body scrub at the salon."A salon? Giselle rubbed her temples. Her mother-in-law was talking about luxury treatments while Giselle herself barely had enough for diapers."Can't you postpone your… little trip to the spa? I don't have any extra money right now. I need to restock the store."

Louis returned to his car followed by Netty. However, his slightly different expression was curious. "What is it that makes you so happy?" Louis smiled, "You'll find out after this."Hearing that answer, Netty was even more curious. However, the vibration of her cell phone distracted her, she stared at her phone for a moment and took a deep breath. "Yes, hello!""Okay."As soon as she hung up, Netty looked at Louis with a slight sigh. "What's wrong with you?" She held back her annoyance as much as possible and tried to come up with an excuse. "Ah no, my head is just a little dizzy. No big deal..." Netty deliberately lied, because she didn't want others to know about her family's problems."Are you sure there's no problem? There's a pharmacy over there, I'll take you there and buy some medicine before you go home."Netty laughed freely, as if she was not carrying a burden. "Ah, Netty. Please help me check my laptop bag, I think I've put the flashdisk in there."Netty swallowed, she
