Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Merciless Billionaire's Contract Marriage : Kabanata 41 - Kabanata 50

AIDEN'S POV "The lawsuit is very strong. I read it many times," Devon said the next day. He gave me a bunch of papers while we drank coffee and ate eggs and pastries. We sat outside on the back porch, watching the horses run around the field to get ready for the day. I took a sip of coffee and looked at the papers. "I’ve spent way too much money on the Arctic oil project. I’m not giving it up just because Landon wants to see me fail." "We won’t go broke," Henry said while putting jam on his bread. My silly brother had left his wife just for this breakfast meeting so we could talk business. "I checked the money stuff. If we stop drilling in the Arctic, it’ll hurt us, but we can handle it. We won’t grow for the next four years, but we’ll still make money." "I’m not here just to make money. I want to rule the world," I said. "You might not get to choose," Devon said. "If you lose the lawsuit, you’ll have to stop anyway. Then you’ll have big lawyer bills, another public mess, and yo

AURORA'S POV Daniel stood tall, calm as usual. “So dramatic, Knight.” “So over confident, Sterling.” After a lot of arguing, we started walking on the trail. I felt nervous and excited, even though Henry was riding close to me on Jay and kept leaning over to pat Hamilton, giving me instructions with his words and by sight. Behind us, Annabelle was on Washington, Daniel on Madison, Ariella on Adams, and Devon on Jefferson. Devon and Annabelle seemed to get over their coldness. They were joking and getting along like old friends, while Ariella tried talking to Daniel but kept getting ignored. Thirty minutes up the trail to the mountains, I heard a horse running fast behind us. Henry turned his head and sighed then he pointed his finger at his head like a gun and joked like he was shooting himself with a silly "poof!" sound. “Please don’t tell me you didn’t tell your husband you’re riding.” “Ok. I didn’t tell my husband I was riding.” Then I stared straight ahead, trying to ignor

AURORA'S POV I was crying loudly, and there was nothing he could do to make me stop. So he didn’t try. He just held me, letting me cry while keeping his arms around me like he was holding me together. “I don’t even know what I did wrong. Ariella said Hamilton is your best horse for beginners.” He saw I was too shaken to ride back, so he sat down on the grass, keeping me on his lap. My arms stayed wrapped around his shoulders. Franklin stood near us, watching quietly while chewing grass. “You didn’t do anything wrong. Hamilton’s had a rough few years. His back legs got swollen and he wasn’t ridden much. When winter came, he couldn’t handle it. I knew I had to retrain him in the spring. He wasn’t ready yet. When I saw you on him without a helmet…” Aiden closed his eyes and took a shaky breath. “I’m going to tear Henry apart and throw him to the polar bears he keeps trying to protect.” “Henry doesn’t like oil drilling in the Arctic either?” I asked with a hiccup. “Don’t ev

AURORA'S POV Aiden was stacking his chips slowly, not even looking at her. I didn’t even know how to play poker, so both of them were being silly. “I swear to God, Aiden” “Leave it alone.” My husband looked up from his chips. “Her ex boyfriend once lost everything she owned in a poker game. Think she wants to remember that, genius?” Nobody said anything after that. He picked up the cards Henry gave him and shook his head. “Yeah. That’s what I thought.” “If I were her, I’d still play, just to annoy you,” my sister Annabelle said. The fire in her tone was gone. Everyone else at the table was playing except Ariella and me. “That’s the difference. You’re not her. That’s why she’s married to a billionaire, and you run a club with dancers,” Aiden said flatly, his sharp eyes focused on his cards. “Madame Mayhem is classy. Burlesque is not the same as stripping, jerk.” Annabelle blew a raspberry at him. “I like burlesque,” Devon groaned and shifted in his seat. “You’d lik

AURORA'S POV Aiden picked up his new cards just as I reached my peak. I grabbed his thick wrist under the table, guiding his hand to where I needed it most and began riding his hand in a wave like motion. My climax hit deep. All my muscles got tight, I stopped breathing, and my mouth opened and I orgasmed as if a strong earthquake ran through my whole body “Are you sure you're okay, Aurora? You look like you're in pain,” Ariella asked gently while my eyes were still shut. I blinked, feeling dazed and pleased. “Just another cramp. Sorry.” I Knew my cheeks were red due to my blushing. Aiden threw a card into the pile, then picked another, looking calm and uninterested. He slowly moved his hand away from between my legs, pulling my panties back into place. He wiped my wetness on my thigh and fixed my dress to hide the evidence. “I think I need to walk a bit. Stretch my legs.” I stood up quickly. “Anyone want something from the kitchen?” “Cognac,” Aiden said, still focused on his
