All Chapters of A Billionaire's Love: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Karen's Pov.Mask in silver, crimson, gold and different shapes and sizes. The room was glittering with different people both of high standing and I couldn't feel more out of place. Liam hadn't spoken through the drive to the gala, all he said was just his simple compliment.‘You look beautiful.’ but this time, the usual spark in his eyes was distant. I asked him why he didn't come to the office today but his eyes stayed transfixed on the steering wheel with his hands tightening on the wheels saying that he had something important to take care of.The entire drive was quiet and the city light blurred together in a haze. The silence was thick, not the kind that was comfortable and soothing, the one that made my stomach churn.When they first reached the gala center, Liam's demeanor suddenly changed, he no longer gave the usual kind smile and small baited glances but his face was stoic cold and expression did not even give me the slightest smile even if it was once. He looked like

Devon's Pov.Liam left the room the next moment leaving something awake within me. I didn't want to give him the satisfaction that he had finally gotten under my skin but as much as I try to deny it I couldn't, he had, and this time it was extremely deep.I couldn't shake off the feeling that Liam had left me with. It was a mix of annoyance, curiosity, and a hint of unease. Heck it wasn’t a hit, it was a lot. Whatever it is he had In stored I was curious, very curious it made me worry, had he by any chance gotten hold of some important documents that could somehow tarnish Grey Tech's reputation, one that I had struggled so hard to build, taking no assistance and building it solely on my own.I had initially had second thoughts in going to the masquerade banquet award but now that Liam had put me on the edge it topped the charts for the main reasons I’d be showing up at the event. What did he have planned for the masquerade award show? And why did he seem so confident that it woul

Karen's POVThe chill of the night air wrapped around me as I stepped out of the banquet hall, the weight of humiliation and betrayal were suffocating.The murmuring from the crowd of high standing men and women still echoed in my ears, just when I thought I could make a reasonable change in my life, all of it came crashing down in just one night.The heel I wore clicked against the pavement, making my steps uneven and my body staggering. I bent down and took off my heels.Hot tears ran down my cheeks as I walked away from Devon, and this time, his words didn't hurt me or leave a dent in my skin. His words were something that were long overdue. Even though I couldn't see him, I could still feel his piercing gaze burrowing into my back but they were all too harmless now. My heart shredded at the thought of Liam's words, everything he'd said to me had truly meant nothing, they were just lies, the sparkle, glimmer and even the hint of hope in his eyes had all just been a lie. Liam had

Karen's PovThe beeping sound wakes me up from my sleep, a throbbing headache following, I open my eyes revealing a white wall above me with machines connected directly into my body. Wasn't I just in the car so where was I now? An aching headache swamp my thoughts as I remember the scene from before. An accident, I stumbled into an accident and was now present in the hospital. “She's awake.” I hear a voice from the room, a nurse immediately running into the room. With my eyes wider now I scan the entire hospital, how did I get here ? Who brought me here? Piles of questions kept swapping my mind. The cab driver, the road, lights and…Devon. It all came crashing in, Devon and Liam.He can't see me like this, it'd only make his pride grow, giving him more reasons to talk about me. Wincing in pain, I managed to sit up from the hospital bed, disconnecting the drugs going directly into my body. I had to get out of here,the doctors would soon start asking questions I didn't have any an

Devon’s POVThe hospital door shut closed and age was gone, gone for good and there was nothing I could do. “Damn it!” A loud cry left my mouth before I collapsed on the empty bed. “I'm sorry Karen. I really am.” My voice echoed through the room but that was it, completely emptiness filled not just the space but even my heart. I ran my hands through my disheveled hair, tugging and pulling at it until my knuckles turned a shade of pale white. She'd left. Gone for good and I wanted to chase after her and plead for her to stay but I just couldn't. The way she begged had said it all, she wanted to go as far away from me as possible and that was the only way I could finally make her free ....make her happy. The door creaked open and my head jolted up hoping to see her but my brain already told me otherwise.It was the nurse from earlier, she had attended to me during the time I was waiting for Karen to wake up.She had an injection in her hand and paused midway, her eyes scanned the r
