Все главы The Billionaire I Married: Глава 21 - Глава 30

When the postnup arrived two days later, Tony rejected it outright. According to him, the document contained 10 pages of pure wickedness.The document stated that in the case of a divorce or Tony’s death, Kate was not entitled to receive anything from the DaCosta Estate. The only thing she gets is what she came into the marriage with and any monetary gift she gets from Tony.If Kate has a baby with Tony during the marriage, the child will get a specific sum of money as its inheritance and nothing more.The documents also highlighted a long list of rules and regulations that Kate must abide by while she remains a member of the DaCosta family. Charles had also sneaked in a little non-disclosure clause on the last page to make sure Kate never tries to say a word out of place against the DaCostas in public.“This is the most shallow and insulting piece of legal writing I have ever read in my life!” Tony raged at Charles.“It doe

“Do you want to leave?” Wendy asked Kate over the phone. “You’ve only been there for a few days.”“I know. I just can’t stand the nastiness anymore,” Kate cried.She’d tearfully narrated her experience in the DaCosta home since her arrival on Thursday evening. She was afraid that this was what her life would be for as long as she remained married to Tony.“Take it easy, Kate. Don’t make rash decisions because you’re upset,” Wendy advised.“Stop crying and listen to me,” she continued. “There’s nothing for you here in Sommerville. Tony did you a favor by securing your future when he married you. Don’t ruin that just because his children hate you. You didn’t expect them to fall head over heels in love with you at first sight, did you?”“No, but this level of hatred from them is too much,” Kate complained. “They don

“What are you talking about?” Kate asked Athena while doing her best to remain calm.Athena’s smirk expanded. “I did a bit of digging and I found out that you met my father a few weeks ago when he traveled to Sundance on business.“You discovered his identity and managed to seduce him into marrying you. That way, he could fund your father’s church-building project while you would have permanent access to his money as his wife.”Kate suppressed her sigh of relief. She’d thought Athena had found out about her pregnancy. Thankfully, that was not the case.“So, that’s my secret?” Kate asked her.“Isn’t it?” Athena countered. “You came here acting like a princess who has lived a life of luxury until now, meanwhile, you’re nothing but a poverty-stricken nobody from a tiny town in Wyoming.”“I never claimed to be what I wasn’t. You drew those conclusions by yourself,” Kate told her calmly.“Well, guess what?” Athena continued triumphantly. “

Tony’s panicked voice startled Kate. She woke up suddenly and turned her head to the side, just as the intruder’s dagger sank into her pillow.Kate screamed and rolled away, but her attacker jumped on the bed and went after her. She couldn’t see who it was because the room was dark, but she knew it was a man. He was dressed in all black with a black ski mask hiding his face.“Die, you stupid bitch!” The man growled as he reached for Kate’s neck.Tony ran forward and dove onto the bed. He landed on the intruder’s back and locked him in a chokehold.“Let her go!” He shouted at the intruder.Despite Tony’s strong grip on the intruder, the man wouldn’t let go of Kate. She was busy wrestling with the man in an attempt to break free from him.With all of his strength, Tony reared backward, taking the intruder with him. Kate finally broke free as Tony and her attacker landed on the f

Tony succeeded in getting through the three hours of lying down beside Kate and not jumping her bones. The last time he was this attracted to a woman was many years ago, on the same evening he met Agnes.The sun was already rising in the sky and Kate was still asleep. Tony wondered if he should leave now or wait for her to wake up.She was sleeping on her right side, facing him. He studied her peaceful face, admiring those perfectly curved eyebrows. Her full eyelashes spread out above her cheek like a curved hand fan.Her nostrils flared slightly as she inhaled deeply in her sleep. Tony’s eyes traveled down to her lips. Hmm… would he ever get to kiss them?Kate’s eyes fluttered open and they met Tony’s. He became a bit embarrassed to be caught staring, so he smiled and quickly started to get up.“Good morning,” Kate said sleepily and yawned.“Good morning,” said Tony. “I only just woke u
