All Chapters of The Billionaire's Bargain : Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Mr. Reed was sitting in his living room, relaxing and trying to unwind after a long day. He had just poured himself a glass of scotch and was about to take a sip when he heard the doorbell ring. He got up to answer it, expecting it to be one of his staff members or perhaps a neighbor. But to his surprise, it was Mrs. Valerie."Oh, who do we have here? Welcome, Mrs. Valerie," he said, trying to sound polite but not smiling. "Please, come in and have a seat."Mrs. Valerie looked at him with a mixture of sadness and anger in her eyes. "I didn't come all the way here to sit and dine, you know how busy I am, so I prefer standing," she said, her voice firm. "My daughter was arrested; I know what she did was grievous, and I'm not in support of the act, but pressing charges, don't you think you're going too far?" He raised an eyebrow, feeling a sense of annoyance at her question. "I am doing what's right, Mrs. Valerie," he said, not looking at her for a second. "And besides, I wasn't the one

As the evening approaches, the sun begins its descent towards the horizon, casting a warm, golden glow across the landscape.Mia, coming back home from a long, hectic day at work, was tired and worn out; as she got into her apartment, she let out a deep sigh as she dropped her bag on the floor and began to take off her shoes."Ugh, what a day," she said to herself, shaking her head. "I'm so glad to be home. I just want to take a shower, put on some comfortable clothes, and collapse on the couch." She walked over to the kitchen to grab a glass of water, still talking to herself about her stressful day. "I don't know how much more of this I can take. Work has been killing me lately. I'm so tired of all the drama and stress. I just want to go back to bed and forget about everything."Just then, she was surprised to see Alex sitting comfortably on her couch, smiling sheepishly at her. She let out a loud shout in shock, "Oh my geez! How the fuck did you get in here you psychopath?" she sa

Bella stood on the street with a teary and pale face, still contemplating where to go. She knew the only place she could go was her previous apartment, where Mia stayed. She quickly ordered a cab and headed there, trying to process the events that had just transpired. As she sat in the cab, she couldn't help but think about the argument she had with James. She had never seen him so angry and hurt before, to the extent of telling her to leave and it broke her heart to know that she was the cause of it.She got to the apartment, pressed the door button, and the voice from inside replied, "Give me a minute; I'm coming.” Bella waited patiently, trying to compose herself. She didn't want to break down in front of Mia, but she knew it was inevitable. As Mia opened the door, she was surprised to see Bella, whose eyes were filled with tears. "Not again, what's going on? What happened this time?" she said, as she paved the way for Bella to come in.Bella walked into the apartment, feeling a

"Good morning, sir," his secretary greeted him as he walked into the office.“Morning" he replied and kept walking, not even breaking his stride. "Sir, after you were absent for days, you have a lot on your table to attend to and a few meetings," his secretary called out after him.James stopped in his tracks, turned around, and said, "Not now, please. Reschedule everything. I have a lot going on with me." He turned back around and continued walking to his office, his mind preoccupied with his thoughts.As he walked into his office, he was greeted by the sight of his dad sitting patiently in one of the chairs in front of his desk. He looked up at him, "You know, I've been wondering if putting my company in your care was a great idea." James felt a pang of guilt and anxiety as he walked over to his desk and sat down. "Good morning, Dad," he said, trying to sound cheerful. His dad looked at him expectantly, waiting for an answer to his question."That doesn't answer my question," his

As he arrived at her apartment, his heart began to beat with different thoughts running through it. Is she going to give him a listening ear? he thought to himself. He had been thinking about this moment for a while now, and he was determined to make it count. He took a deep breath, steadied himself, and pressed the doorbell. He waited for an answer, his heart pounding in his chest.The door opened, and Mia came out to check who was at the door. She looked at him with a mixture of surprise and annoyance. "What do you want, Mr. Billionaire?" she asked rudely after seeing him. "You're the least expected, you know," she added, her tone dripping with sarcasm. James smiled, trying to appear calm and collected. "Good day, Mia," he greeted, trying to ignore her rudeness.Mia raised an eyebrow, clearly not impressed by his greeting. "There is absolutely nothing good about the day and you haven't answered my question?" she asked, her voice firm. "And besides, whoever you came here to see is
