All Chapters of Betrayed By The Billionaire Playboy: Chapter 51 - Chapter 59

(Armando’s POV)The ocean roared beneath us, the speedboat slicing through the choppy waves as my me prepared for what was likely a suicide mission because we were unsure how many men were with Ferro on the island. The salt spray clung to my skin, but it couldn’t wash away the weight crushing my chest. I couldn’t just get the face of Olivia out of my mind. My chest heaved and I really hated this feeling so much and really wished I would never feel this way.Olivia was out there, trapped in the clutches of a monster. Every second that passed felt like a knife twisting in my gut. I knew Ferro and I knew he was. Ruthless son of a bitch and I swore that if I see just a scratch on Olivia’s body, I would rip him apart and feed his balls to the vultures.Dominic’s voice crackled over the headset. “We’re five minutes out. The island’s heavily fortified—guards on every entry point. You’ll only have one shot at this.”“I don’t care what it takes,” I s

(Olivia’s POV)The first thing I felt was warmth—an unfamiliar sensation that spread across my hand like sunlight breaking through clouds. My eyelids were heavy, as though they had been weighted down for an eternity, but I forced them open.The light above me was muted, soft against the pale walls of a hospital room. The sterile smell of antiseptic hit my senses as my vision cleared. I groaned in slight pain as I tried to move.And then I saw him.Armando was slumped in a chair beside me, his dark eyes rimmed with exhaustion and worry, his hand gripping mine so tightly it ached. His suit jacket was wrinkled, his tie loosened—a rare sight for a man who prided himself on precision. For a moment I was terrified seeing him and I flinged.When he noticed my movement, his head shot up, his expression transforming from despair to unbridled relief.“Olivia,” he breathed, his voice breaking. “You’re awake.” There was shock and joy in

(Olivia’s POV)The drive back from the event was suffocating. Silence filled the car, heavy and unyielding, but I could feel Armando’s frustration simmering just beneath the surface. I stared out the window, pretending I didn’t notice the way his grip tightened on the steering wheel every time he glanced my way. I cared less all I cared about was how I was going to get back at Ferro.When we finally got back to the safe house, I decided to break the silence. “Celeste invited me to a women’s summit she’s hosting next week.” I frowned with my hands folded and placed on my breast as I didn’t even want to have any conversation with him.He didn’t respond immediately, but I could see the muscles in his jaw clench.“And?” he asked finally, his tone clipped.“I’m going,” I said simply and also turned to leave.He turned to me, his dark eyes narrowing. “You’re not serious.”I narrowed my eyes in shock. Who the hell did he t

(Dual POV: Olivia and Armando)Olivia’s POVThe car ride home was suffocating. Matteo sat behind the wheel, his large frame radiating the same unshakable calm he always carried. I stared out the window, the city blurring into streaks of light as the car hummed softly.I couldn’t stop replaying the last few hours in my head—Celeste’s concerned stare, Armando’s furious words, the chaos that seemed to follow me everywhere. I just couldn’t trust or allow myself to be vulnerable around Armando.Matteo’s silence only made my thoughts louder. He was Armando’s shadow, his ever-loyal right hand, and yet, somehow, he felt impenetrable.“Matteo,” I said cautiously, my voice cutting through the quiet.He glanced at me briefly in the rearview mirror but said nothing.“What’s Armando like?” I asked, my tone casual but laced with curiosity. I didn’t even know how and why I asked that question.“He’s the boss,” Matteo repl

(Olivia’s POV)The screen flashed, the grainy video looping in my mind even after it stopped playing and one part of me really wished I had watched wrong or it was just a dream but it wasn’t. My body felt heavy, as though every ounce of strength had been drained from me.Armando.The man who told and cried to me he loved me. The man who swore he’d protect me. The man who looked into my eyes and made me believe that maybe, just maybe, I wasn’t alone in this nightmare.And yet, there he was. His hands on another woman, his lips brushing against hers with the same tenderness he once showed me. My heart! Shattered!I tried to swallow the lump in my throat, but it wouldn’t budge. My chest felt tight, each breath a struggle as the betrayal sank in and I instantly felt dizzy. My legs couldn’t hold me up anymore as everything around me was spinning.“Olivia,” Celeste’s voice was soft, almost pitiful. “I’m sorry you had to see
