All Chapters of The Billionaire's Fragile Angel : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

~Merina Pov~The cold night air folded itself around me like a permanent grasp as I walked aimlessly through empty streets. My chest hurt, my breaths were shallow, and each step seemed to have become a task of greater effort to take. I held the test result in my hand, but it had been crumpled so badly. My mind was at a gallop with a thousand questions, none of which I had answers to.How had things come to this? How had my life fallen so utterly apart?Memories came rushing back, uninvited and merciless. I was such a bright and carefree kid who loved singing my heart out and the only encouragement I needed was my mother's warm smile. I had won little awards for singing and playing the piano, for just about anything of merit. As I grew up, the world seemed full of possibilities.But then, my mom got sick. I still remember how weak she held my hand and the whispered promises that it was all going to be alright. But it wasn't. She died. And With her went all light from my world, or

~Adams Pov~Sunlight seeped into the room, warm and relentless, yanking me from my light sleep. My head throbbed vaguely, a residue of whatever had been dropped into my drink last night, but it was nothing compared to the turmoil in my mind.The events of last night played in my mind like a lunatic dream. The girl, Merina, stumbling drunkenly into my room, her idiot stubbornness, her soft lips…I let out a harsh breath and ran a hand over my face as I sat up. The room was silent now except for the soft sound of her breathing. I rolled onto my side to look at her more fully, my head twisted toward her as I watched her stir under the covers. Her hair was a tangle, her face smothered in sleep, but something in that pose seemed tranquil, lulling, to dispel chaos she had stirred with her.She stirred, eyelashes batting open to reveal cloudy eyes. She looked around the strange room, momentarily disoriented, and then it was as if something else clicked into place inside of her, perhaps the c

~Merina Pov~I looked at the breakfast which was laid in front of me. There was no denying it looked sumptuous and if it was any other day, I would have grumbled it down but right now I have no appetite. I felt exhausted both mentally and physically and I just wished to escape from the eyes of this man who stood rigidly by the door as he fixed his eyes on me as if telling me he wouldn't go if I didn't eat.“I bet you haven't eaten all day right?” His calm voice asked, jolting me out of my daze.I rolled my eyes at him and ignored him. I felt so irritated just thinking about how he wouldn't let me leave. I wonder why mine is always so different. Other people have a one-night stand and forget about it, and some become friends or lovers when they find themselves fit. But in the case of I and Adams, like he had called himself—We don't fit! He chuckled. Then walked closer to me, “You need to take care of yourself more. Now, eat!” He ordered, but I wasn't focused on that, my eyes were on

~Adam's Pov~I walked out of her house and angrily entered my car and ordered my men to drive off. I could feel the anger in my chest at that moment. I wanted to break something, I wanted to beat her up and make her come back to her senses but I can't bear to. I know if I stayed for another moment, I would spank her because that was what was on my mind at that moment. I wonder how someone could be so frustratingly stupid. She doesn't care about her life just because some idiots betrayed her? Just thinking about it annoys me so much. I swallowed hard and raised my hand to remove my tie but then it dropped as I remember I had no tie on as I was in my home clothes.“Darn it! That silly girl!” I cursed as I glared out the window. As the car drove off, I looked at the dirty community and the people living in it. Seeing the men smoking and others gambling as they shouted to the extent of almost fighting while some women sat idle as they gossiped and cursed, my heart felt more uncomforta

~Adam Pov ~The moment she went limp in my arm, I felt I was going to lose her. I knew I wouldn't be able to live with the guilt, but her hot body slapped me out of my daze. She was burning, especially her forehead which was scorchingly hot. My hand trembled as I looked at her unconscious self then with trembling hands I took out my phone and punched in Sean's digits. The call was picked up in a minute, “Call the doctors now! I want to see them in fifteen minutes! Go drive them here! Take the fastest car!” I ordered and put the phone away, then carried her and laid her on the bed comfortably. Looking at her furrowed brow, I couldn't help but be angry at myself at this moment. If I had left her at her place, maybe if I hadn't been so stubborn in wanting to bring her back with me, then Maybe—Just maybe, she wouldn't be like this. “Shit!” I cursed as I paced around the room, my mind overwhelmed with different scenarios. My hands tangled my hair, as I looked at the bed worriedly.This
