All Chapters of Escaping my heartless billionaire husband : Chapter 211 - Chapter 220

(Karis's pov) The image of Valeria hugging Xander shook me to my core. I soon forgot the feeling I had about the boy as my biggest fear seemed to be coming true. He wanted to take away my child. "Mummy," Val softly called once she recognized my presence, lifting her head from her father. Pardon, I mean Xander's chest. "Red," he called softly once he met my eyes; this time, I was certain his eyes were filled with regret and guilt, but I ignored him to focus on my angel. Her voice was soft with her eyes watery. Xander also looked at me and he seemed to be struck. "Val, come to mummy," I squatted on the floor with my hands wide open for Val. I had to compose myself first and make sure my daughter wasn't in his arms. She nodded at Xander and then left his arms before coming into my arms. I pulled her closer sensing her comforting scent. "Why were you crying?" I asked, ignoring the heated gaze I was getting from Xander. I glanced over at Xander and realized the little b

(Karis's pov) My lips parted, then closed, lost at the argument; I wasn't wearing an engagement ring. "What I do with my Fiance has nothing to do with you, Xander. I don't know how any of this happened, but if Vance is truly mine, I am going to sue your lover." I argued not ready to give him the last word. Xander groaned, massaging the space between his brows, "Karis, why are you doing this to me?" He asked, sounding emotionally drained. I scoffed. I didn't do anything to him. Whatever he was suffering was his fucking fault. I crossed my hands under my bosom with my eyes sizing him up. "How many times do I have to tell you Emma is not my lover? We have never been in love, nor never have I dated her before, even before we got married. She only used to bother me about business tips, and honestly, if you want to get rid of her, feel free to because I am sick of her presence around me." He emphasized his words, which left me speechless. Seeing I wasn't reacting, he con

(Karis's POV) He was still hesitant to talk about whatever past they had; from my guess, they were probably friends because all of Xander's friends seemed familiar with Skyler, but there was this animosity between them. The audience's seat lights were switched on, so those on the stage could see the audience. Val's eyes sparkled when she spotted Skyler and I. Just like the other children, she left the stage running towards us with her medal. Vance's eyes flickered but he didn't say anything and waited for Val. "Mummy," she screamed, jumping at me. "I came second," she excitedly said as soon as she was in my arms. "Congrats, Angel," Skyler chirped from the side, and Val's eyes narrowed at Skyler. "Daddy Sky, did you see my performance?" She said with a pout. "Sorry, I couldn't make it in time." Skyler apologized. I was expecting Val to act dramatic, but she seemed chill. "It's fine; you look like you were fighting." she vaguely said; she was pretty observant

(Emma's pov) I can't believe Xander threatened to kill me just because Karis is back. It was hilarious because he would never be with his beloved Karis after she caught us butt naked together and we have a son together. At least that is what Xander thinks. Unknown to him, that bastard is actually Karis's. When I saw how he treated Vance in the start, it gave me a sense of fulfilment, but all of a sudden, he started treating that bastard nicely, but he didn't look my way. The truth was that at first, I didn't know Vance was Karis's and thought it was a coincidence, but fate was funny, wasn't it? Karis was haunting me everywhere; why did she come back? I planned everything perfectly well and was this close to having Xander. "Do you have this dress in red?" I asked the sales girl that has been following behind. Since life wasn't working for me, I decided to go shopping; retail therapy was my best coping mechanism. It was Christmas Eve, so the malls were super bus

(Karis's pov) Xander was one insensitive jerk; how would he just tell her the truth that way? I was still processing the fact that Emma had miraculously found out the hospital where I delivered tricked them into compromising my maternity records and then stole my baby. Then something hit me: that meant my premature labour might have been induced during my antenatal visits. I was so stunned about this that I failed to notice how mad my fireball was until her voice broke my line of thoughts. "Why did you tell me to stay away from Vance and my daddy?" Val asked me, sounding aggrieved. I was at a loss for words; what I did then was selfish, but in my defence, how was I to know the boy was mine? I was tongue-tied and had nothing to say. Her face scrunched together then she started to cry. I was confused about what to do if she was mad or sad. "I am sorry," I hesitantly said, pulling her into a hug while I was glaring at that abominable man. "I am happy, I thought my
