Chapter 38: How dare he?
Author Luna Celeste.Hi lovely readers. Apologies for the single chapter update. My laptop's keyboard is acting up so typing is a bit hard. I'm getting an external keyboard soon so updates should be regular in a few more days. At most tomorrow or Saturday! Please remember to vote with gems. Also, who else wants to know if Malachi just pushed Antonia into her villain era?

“Should I call the doctor?”Tieran’s concern is a line on his face and it’s heartwarming, but I shake my head in the negative. A doctor would tell me it's morning sickness and I already know that.Plus, it’s better to think Malachi is the one who made me hurl my guts out. He kissed me with the same mouth he no doubt kisses Skye with! That’s just gross.Tieran’s large warm hand lays comfortingly on my shoulder as he speaks again, “You look like you’re going to be sick, Antonia.”I nod and respond sullenly, “I feel like I'm going to be sick. Why the hell would he do that?”I can’t help the surge of emotions that course through me. I was planning to not talk about this to Tieran at all. It’s bad enough he had to see me like that, but now I feel like I might hurl again if I don't say something.Tieran doesn’t seem to have any response for me and I'm halfway to getting even more annoyed when he responds, his tone dark and heavy, “I told him I'd start a business war if he doesn’t let you go.

Malachi’s pov.The taste of Antonia on my lips lingers, even as I watch her walk the grounds of my mansion with a man in tow.Tieran is acting strange. Stranger than strange, he’s acting suspicious, and I can see why he’s doing that.Tieran smiles benevolently at something Antonia says and a flash of anger passes through my eyes as the flesh of my heart hardens. If he wants to meddle in someone’s marriage, then he should get married himself and try to live the ideal life with his wife. Trying to correct my marriage because his mother and grandfather never had one is foolhardy.Not just foolhardy, it’s not the kind of thing men are meant to do. A man like Tieran would never concern himself with family matters, especially relating to a family that’s not his own. So what changed?“Oh, Malachi!”Skye’s cheery voice filters into my ears and shuts out my thoughts. I turn and bump right into her, annoyance making my body tense at the action but laughter coming from her lips like this is so
Never Divorce a Secret Billionaire Heiress Chapter 41: I need you to lend me half a million dollars.
Antonia’s pov.I’m lost in thought after Tieran and I eat. We head out to the gardens.Tieran has no idea what I want to happen, and I almost feel bad it has to. Still, Malachi has to learn a certain lesson when it comes to me and invading my personal space, and I have to be the one to teach him that lesson because waiting for him to learn it himself is like waiting for him to fall in love with me on his own. A foolish hope.“It’s been a while since I took a walk in here.”Tieran’s remark snaps me out of my thoughts and I nod in response, looking around myself for the first time since we’ve come in here and actually appreciating the beauty of the garden. A voice at the back of my thoughts tells me anyone can see us down here. Sienna, Skye, Malachi. I stop at the stone bench close to the patch of flowers I've tended to ever since I came to this mansion, and as usual, it looks like a few flowers have been tampered with. I’m sure I’d have seen them in Siena’s flower patch if I paid att

Tieran and I discuss the rest of the business deal in the garden's privacy, and even as I speak with him, I hope he can’t hear how fast my heart is racing.It’s pounding like a stampede of horses.I had formerly decided to take this loan from my father, and more than that, I intended to borrow a much smaller amount. A few hundred thousand that shouldn’t be too hard to pay back.Tieran stares at the patch of flowers in front of him thoughtfully as I finish explaining the offer. I know I'm asking for much, basically half a million dollars, but my company could use that, and I'm confident in myself and my talent. The world will love my designs. Tieran’s voice drags me out of my thoughts as he asks, “What happens if you cannot pay back this half-million-dollar loan?”I get the strange feeling of my body being dunked in a tub of water, and all the excitement coursing through me cools down immediately as I turn his words over in my head. I’ve already considered the possibility of that happen
Never Divorce a Secret Billionaire Heiress Chapter 45: Am I clear?
“Master Malachi has ordered you move back into your old bedroom.”I ignore the maid who delivers that message and open the door to my room, go in and shut it back behind me.“Mrs Antonia. Master Malachi will not be happy with this kind of behaviour.”The overbearing tone i hear in the maid’s voice makes me consider doing something risky. I’ve never been one to stand up for myself. Up until Malachi’s arrival into my life, i was a victim of bullying from a group of guys in college. Malachi rescued me from that situation, then he became the reason i started being looked down on. So much so that even the maids in the house began to use tones when speaking to me, and i always ignored because i didn’t care about a few snarky maids who were probably stressed from all the work Sienna was making them do.All that mattered to me was being the best i could be for Malachi. But times are different now…. The maid begins to bang on the door. I open it just as she raises her hand for another slam, and

I send the maid off and am left with Malachi’s friend. Someone who won’t stop wearing a hard look on his face and the tight-lipped glower he’s directing at me. I don’t particularly care about the frown, but I'm more concerned about the fact that he’s a friend of Malachi’s.I can’t claim to know all of Malachi’s friends, especially because I don't. I know I don't. Malachi rarely lets me into the circles of people he keeps as friends, and yet I know a number of them because at one point or the other, we meet.I haven’t met this guy in my life, yet he has a mean look and a menacing aura coming off him.One that makes me feel he’s looking down on me somehow, and like he’s mildly disgusted.A bit of fear creeps up my back but I push it down instead, deciding to approach this calmly. I stretch my hand out and offer it in greeting as I speak, “I’m Antonia.”Introductions should be in order, right?My handshake is left hanging in the air. Malachi’s friend tucks his hands into his pockets ins

Malachi’s pov.Skye walks in with a drink in hand, and one look at the smile on her face tells me she’s done something. I’m less concerned and uninterested until i hear her speak, “Want to know what i did?”I raise my head from the contract i’m going over and look directly at her. Skye can have a mean side sometimes but she’s never done anything to harm anyone. The fact that we just settled what was a very silly argument and she's done something is what interests me though. If Skye is going to do anything right now, it could either be something good or bad, and it could either be directed at Antonia or not.I don’t care either way, but i’d still like to know so i respond, “Humor me.”Skye plops onto the bed and releases a content sigh, her eyes on the ceiling as she speaks, “I asked a maid to go tell Antonia you said she could come back to this room." She goes on almost immediately, "I know it sounds mean of me, but i just wanted to see what her reaction would be. If she still wanted
Never Divorce a Secret Billionaire Heiress Chapter 48: When do you need it delivered?
When Skye comes to my room to tell me dinner will be ready in a few more minutes, the only thing i have in mind to tell her is to go die in a ditch somewhere.Now that my anger has cooled into something much cooler and lethal, i remember the male doofus who stopped by my door did mention his name. He said he was Caelum. One of Malachi’s associates.“Has your tongue gotten lost somewhere or are you just going to ignore me, Antonia?” I cast my gaze back to Skye and see how her hand strategically rests on her belly. A gleaming ring sparkles on one of her fingers and that sparkle matches the one in her eyes. As always, i can’t help but notice how resplendent she looks, and maybe this time i notice it more because of what i’ve just been told.~You’re no match for, Skye.~I hide the anger that flares in me at that statement from my face and give Skye a curt response, “I’ll be there.”She opens her mouth to say something but i do not want to hear anymore of what she wants to say. I shut the
