Never Divorce a Secret Billionaire Heiress Chapter 86: Considerations.
Malachi leaves but his condition remains in the room with me. It’s heavy on my mind and pressing in my thoughts.I’ll never agree to something like that.A bitter feeling crawls down the back of my throat but i push it down. I feel stupid for feeling good while i was speaking to him a while ago. Now i just feel like trash, and i refuse to believe that it’s because Malachi gave me a condition he knows i am not going to agree to.He can’t keep me here. He should know that much.He just believes i’m in a rush to leave because i have a lover i need to attend to. I know that’s what he thinks. He’s only asking me to offer myself to him so that will soothe his ego and satisfy his needs. But has he ever thought about where that leaves me?What does it say about me if i agree to letting something like this happen?I hear a voice ring out in my room, “Mrs Finn.”My head snaps to the door and i see the doctor is back. Two nurses are behind him and they have trays with covered dishes on them.
Never Divorce a Secret Billionaire Heiress Chapter 87: Acceptance.
~Malachi’s pov.~“Mr Finn.”I raise my eyes to the door of my office and i find my assistant standing there. Liam has a tired look in his eyes. I should release him. He’s done his fair share of work today, but we spent time at the hospital and the work allotted for that time went undone. Someone has to do it, and i won’t be doing it alone. He’ll stay back and I’ll pay him overtime.“Yes, Liam.”I return my gaze to my monitor. The feed of the hospital cameras is no longer on display. I might like to indulge, but not so much that i deny the existence of the things i need to do. Liam interrupts my train of thoughts again, “The hospital has called. Mrs Antonia is on the line.”My finger pauses over the keyboard.I look up and Liam is looking back with a blank look in his eyes. He’s tired, and so he’ll act like he has no energy left until he’s let home to do whatever it is he does. No one else was in that room with me, so no one else saw the side of Antonia i did.She’s changed.The real

Tieran’s pov.The city skyline stretches out into the distance, but there’s no sunset. No colorful clouds and yellow tinged fluffs rolling by. The sky is dark and a solitary moon hangs there, shining reservedly. The few stars around try their best to twinkle, but the moon isn’t in for any of that tonight.My mind tells me it moves away just a bit, so it can add distance between it and the stars.The realization hits me. That’s what my life feels like right now. I don’t know if I'm the moon, or just one of the stars trying to outshine the moon, but I know one thing. Like those stars and the moon, I’m alone.And this can’t be how I choose to spend the rest of my life. I don’t want to be alone.The furrow that forms on my brow is unsettling and I feel turmoil begin to build inside of me. My secretary’s voice snaps me back to reality, “Mr Blackstone.”I glance at the door and give a relaxed raise of my eyebrow. She becomes nervous under the weight of my gaze, “There’s a lady at the recep
Never Divorce a Secret Billionaire Heiress Chapter 89: Are you crazy?
~Bridget's pov.~It’s becoming very hard not to hate all the men of the Finn family. Malachi’s father was okay, but the younger generation seem to have serious issues.I trip on the darned heels I'm wearing and swear as I almost take a direct dive into the cold hard ground. I don’t even care if I fall. I need his help and he’s walking the fuck away from me.“Tieran, wait! I can help!”My wobbling steps are nothing in comparison to the distance his long legs cover in powerful strides. The sound of an elevator door coming open floats into my ears, and then they close and I know I have missed my chance.He’s gone, and after I had to lie in wait at his main office just to discover this place, I'm not happy about it, “Coward!”I call the name out loudly and with venom. I don’t care if he’s going to hear me. He should. Maybe then he’d grow a pair of balls and come back so we can do something about his nephew who’s keeping my best friend hostage!I turn back to look at the receptionist sta
Never Divorce a Secret Billionaire Heiress Chapter 90: Freedom I.
Antonia’s pov.I never imagined leaving a hospital would be one of the things I'd consider a triumph, yet this feels like one. The doctor is looking at his reports delicately and he’s nodding to himself.His voice is calm as he speaks, “You’re fine Mrs Finn, and you’re free to go too. Mr Finn has asked that this report be sent to him, so I'll do that.”I roll my eyes mentally. Of course he will.I give no further response except a casual nod. The doctor begins to look at me like there’s something else he wants to say, and I actually predicted this would happen. The thought came to me, and I nodded to myself saying yes, he’ll probably try to tell me he relates to my situation on some level, though I doubt he can ever truly relate to being held captive by a man with the aid of other men… Unless he can, in which case I’d rather not hear the story. I’ve gone through enough trauma for a few months. I forgive him and the nurses. There’s no need to hold a grudge I'll never be able to do an
Never Divorce a Secret Billionaire Heiress Chapter 91: Freedom II
The grounds of my father’s mansion are as stunning as when I first saw it, except this time, something much more valuable than this mansion is sitting in his wheelchair outside the large oak double doors.Ian’s voice confirms my suspicion, “He’s really worried about you.”I nod in agreement with that comment. I can see that. I can see it in the blank look in his eyes and the tired creases on my father’s forehead.He’s waiting for me, and it hurts my heart as much as it warms. I'm seeing him here. Because I've had to put him through this. I get down from the car when Ian parks and I walk over to him. My father rises when I come into arm’s reach and he pulls me into a hug.A deep feeling of remorse rises up in me when I notice how tight he holds me. Tears sting my eyes and my voice comes out scratchy when I speak, “I’m so sorry, Dad. I’m sorry for making you worry. I never intended to. I’m so sorry.”My father only keeps his hug with me tight and I can hear how fast his heart is raci
Never Divorce a Secret Billionaire Heiress Chapter 93: Freedom III.
“Hi, I understand you’re Bridget.”My father’s voice is as warm as an indoor fire. Bridget’s voice is cold as ice from the shock as she nods and responds, “Yes, that’s…. That’s me. It’s an honor to meet you Mr Elcot. I’ve heard so much about you.”My father smiles warmly at her and the sound of whirring distracts all three of us for a while. My father’s wheelchair rolls of its own accord to the entrance of the mansion and stops there. I help him over and he sits.He has to exercise his legs, and they’re strong enough for a thirty minute walk, but he’s still chairbound. I’ll have to speak to his doctor on that.“I’ll leave you two to speak in private. I think your friend had a lot of questions, Antonia. I’ll be at the table.”I smile thankfully at my father and turn to find the look of shock in Bridget’s eyes has deepend. My father’s chair wheels him away, and the minute he’s far enough Bridget descends on me with questions.“That was Damien Elcot, wasn’t it? THE Damien Elcot?”I nod a
Never Divorce a Secret Billionaire Heiress Chapter 1: Apologize Antonia, Now.
Antonia’s pov. My boss and husband Malachi Finn chats excitedly with his first love in the office. I stand outside, and through the glass door, I can see a warm smile on his face. It’s a smile I've never seen before. I know the right thing to do as a competent secretary would be to leave, but as his wife, every bone in my body screams at me to go in there and tell them to stop it. I know I can't. For the three years we’ve been married, Malachi has never treated me like his wife. He’s only ever seen me as a secretary. He’ll talk to me while we’re at work because I plan the company calendar, handle negotiations with his clients, and make sure he’s ready for every presentation he needs to be ready for, but at home, he ignores me. Laughter comes in from Malachi’s office again and my heart throbs with a strange kind of pain at the sound of his laughter. It’s rich, and silky. I dart a peek towards his office once more and my eyes fall on Skye Rogers. I stare at her because everyth
