The Billionaire's Retribution Chapter 17: Mansion
Davina awoke with surprise, finding a fever pack affixed to her forehead. The medicine had cleared her mind, allowing her to think more clearly. She sat up and carefully removed the IV from the back of her hand.Making her way to the window, she opened the curtains, revealing the vast and luxurious room for the first time."Camille must regret divorcing Damian for someone asshole like Marcel," Davina admitted, captivated by the room's exquisite interior design.To her astonishment, the door swung open, and Damian entered, equally taken aback by Davina standing as if nothing had happened."Are you awake? How are you? Are you okay?" Damian approached Davina, concerned."I'm fine. Thank you for caring for me," Davina replied, embarrassed that Damian had witnessed her at her lowest."Don't stand up. You're not stable yet. Let's sit down," Damian guided Davina to the sofa.Davina realized her legs were severely bruised and struggled to walk properly. Suddenly, Damian moved her leg onto his
The Billionaire's Retribution Chapter 18: Agreement
"How long have you been observing me?"Damian was genuinely curious."Why are you so confident that I observe you?" Davina attempted to evade the question."Your previous words give it away," Damian replied."We didn't know each other before, so why would I have noticed you? I meant your presence at the divorce court," Davina tried to cover up her previous lie by pretending to focus on finishing her food.Damian ceased questioning, realizing that Davina was not ready to answer that one. Had he asked too many questions today?Seeing that Davina had finished her breakfast, Damian signaled to the maid to clear away the food and cutlery."Is this outfit Camille's?" Davina looked at the nightgown she was wearing, clearly uncomfortable. The cowl neck slip nightdress made of satin overexposed of Davina's body. Over the past two years, Damian had always worn long clothes covering his arms and legs."That belongs to my stepmother. It seems she doesn't own normal pajamas. Camille never knew about
The Billionaire's Retribution Chapter 19: In-Laws
Damian allowed his living room to be a meeting place for the lawyer and client. Through the one-way glass, Damian observed Davina's efforts to maintain a professional demeanor as she completed her work despite her poor health. Davina refrained from wearing any makeup, needing more energy to do so. Instead, she used Damian's lip moisturizer to alleviate her dry lips.Suddenly, a chill ran down Damian's spine as he noticed Nick standing behind him, staring at him intensely. "I never thought there would come a day when you take time off for a woman," Nick remarked coldly."Haven't I explained the situation to you? I found Davina unconscious and injured. I have no idea how many kilometers she walked in the rain while injured," Damian explained the situation to Nick."I also don't know how long Davina has been enduring all this hardship because of Marcel and Camille. We've already drafted the marriage agreement. That's why this revenge has to succeed. Davina and I cannot fail," Damian's de
The Billionaire's Retribution Chapter 20: Suspicious
"You need not worry about such matters," Davina icily responded to Damian's concerns.Davina's unfriendly reply took Damian aback. Damian had never realized that discussing her parents would be such a sensitive topic.Davina's head throbbed even more as she thought about Anna's condition in the hospital, and Damian noticed this."Let's go to the hospital. We should have a comprehensive health checkup. I'm concerned about the possibility of a bone fracture or something," Damian suggested, unable to hide his worry.Davina weakly shook her head."It's unnecessary. This is nothing new for me. It's just the first time I can't walk. It's also my fault, as I kicked Marcel first."Realizing that Davina's deteriorating condition, she quickly returned to her room. Realizing that something was seriously wrong, Damian swiftly caught Davina just as she nearly collapsed."Davina?" Damian repeatedly patted Davina's cheek, attempting to wake her up.Damian felt the heat emanating from her smooth skin
The Billionaire's Retribution Chapter 21: How Dare You?
Davina stared at Nick in disbelief, unable to comprehend what she had just heard. "We barely know each other. How dare you say such things to me?" Before Nick could respond, Davina spoke again, her voice filled with frustration. "Aren't you supposed to be Damian's closest confidant? Shouldn't you be by his side? How can you say something like this?" "I am saying this because I am the closest person to Damian," Nick replied calmly. "That doesn't make any sense. What kind of people has Damian been surrounding himself with? I always knew you weren't friendly, but now I realize you're ridiculous," Davina retorted. Their argument grew more heated, and Davina could feel anger coursing through her body. Nick had managed to provoke her early in the morning, and she was no longer feeling frail. "And what does that have to do with you? Our marriage doesn't concern you. Damian and I used each other, so there's nothing for anyone to lose in this situation." Davina couldn't understand Nick's w
The Billionaire's Retribution Chapter 22 : He Won't Kill Me
"Is Marcel trying to kill you?" "Don't worry. Marcel may dare to hurt me, but he won't kill me." Damian's tone unconsciously rose as he asked, "How can you be so confident?" He found Davina's trust in Marcel to be the most ridiculous thing he had ever heard, especially after what had happened to her. "Do you trust me?" Davina turned to Damian, their eyes locked in stunned silence. "I'm trying to trust you," Damian replied cautiously, causing Davina to avert her gaze. She knew that Damian's answer implied he didn't fully trust her. It was understandable, considering their history and that they had only known each other since she became involved in Damian and Camille's divorce. "What about you, do you trust me?" Damian asked, noticing Davina's disappointment. "I've been trying to trust you since I agreed to this revenge marriage," Davina confessed before quickly adding, "You need to go to sleep if you want to accompany me for the medical check-up." Damian sighed, feeling the des
The Billionaire's Retribution Chapter 23: Your Acting is Terrible
"What do you mean, did Camille do something bad to you?" Nick asked, his voice filled with concern.Davina nonchalantly unsealed the envelope that Camille had given her. "There's nothing special between me and Camille. We've known each other since childhood. You can't act like you don't know Camille either. Your acting is terrible.""I don't know Camille. Even when Damian got married, I didn't go to the wedding," Nick confessed, his expression sincere."You don't know Camille, but the look on your face was as if you wanted to pounce on her. It was obvious you didn't like Camille," Davina mocked, using playful gestures to imitate a predator.Nick fought back laughter at Davina's ridiculous behavior. "I'm not like that," he evaded, unable to hide a smile.Davina laughed at the embarrassed look on Nick's face. She then removed the contents of the envelope given by Camille. However, her laughter ceased when she saw what Camille had given her.Inside were a dozen photos of Davina with Dami
The Billionaire's Retribution Chapter 24: Where Have You Hidden My Fiancée?
"We never mentioned personal boundaries in the contract. We must be open and keep each other informed," Davina sighed, her choice of the words 'cross personal boundaries' not referring to Damian's previous statement. Their relationship, after all, was strictly professional, prompting Davina to ponder beyond just personal boundaries for physical contact."Never mind, forget it. I'm going to bed. Good night," she concluded abruptly.The following day, Davina was finally discharged from the hospital, although she still needed to continue taking her medication until it ran out. Damian and Davina set off for work directly from the hospital, with Damian's other assistant delivering clothes and other daily necessities.In the same room, Davina and Damian stood reflecting on their respective outfits. Davina now wore a long blouse, her bruised face discreetly concealed by makeup, while Damian continued with his usual attire - a suit with a white shirt."Use this cell phone. I don't want any tr

Damian and Nick strolled side by side, their fingers intertwining, as they made their way towards Davina's hospital room. The doctor's news was encouraging—Davina was finally cleared to go home today. However, she would still need to visit the hospital once a week for a routine check-up on her healing wound.Nick felt relieved as he shared the doctor's update with Damian. "Thank goodness! Davina can finally leave this place. But she must follow through with the weekly hospital visits," he informed Damian.Taking charge, Damian immediately instructed, "Alright, Nick. It's your responsibility to ensure Davina's administration and medication are taken care of. Let's make sure she gets to go home today."Damian's words triggered a sudden realization, causing him to vigorously rub his face in frustration. "Oh, gosh! I forgot, Nick. You're not my personal assistant anymore," he confessed, feeling a pang of guilt. "Don't worry about it. Just tell me where everyth

The room was hushed, with his wife peacefully asleep on the hospital bed while their dear friend Nick slumbered on the nearby sofa.As Damian quietly entered, Nick stirred slightly, sensing his presence.

Chapter 127: Accept the Consequences
Marcel's wry smile played on his lips, knowing that even someone as renowned as Davina, a famous lawyer herself, could not resist the tempting treasure he had presented her. He was well aware of the losses Davina had suffered at his hands and believed that she deserved some compensation from him because Davina was his first love. Instead of waiting for the judge's verdict on how much compensation the victim should receive from the defendant, Davina took matters into her own hands and decided to determine the amount herself. Observing this interaction between his wife and Marcel, Damian's eyebrows furrowed with suspicion as he pondered their unusual communication despite their supposed enmity."Do you think this trial will conclude well?" Damian mumbled under his breath, his doubts creeping in. Nick, who stood close by, caught Damian's words clearly and responded, "Have faith in Claire's lawyer. She undoubtedly has her strategy."

Chapter 126: Make Her Sacrifice
Clad in an elegant ensemble, Davina stood patiently on the bustling roadside, her eyes scanning the passing taxis in search of one to transport her to her destination.

Chapter 125: Crowd of Journalists
Today, Damian and Nick arrived at the courthouse alongside Davina, albeit separately, as she had left the law firm immediately. Davina arrived before the others, taking her seat before Damian and Nick entered.Addressing his wife, Damian inquired, "Have you been waiting for long?" Taking a seat beside her, he awaited her response."Not really," Davina replied, her tone lacking warmth.Seated beside his partners, Nick, speaking in a hushed tone, asked, "How are you holding up, Davina?"Davina curtly replied, "I'm as good as you can see."No longer residing in Nick's apartment or Damian's opulent mansion, Davina had chosen to distance herself from both men.

Chapter 124: You Deserve the Freedom
After a long day at work, Davina arrived at Nick's apartment, having chosen to take a taxi instead of her usual mode of transport. Initially, Davina intended to return to her private apartment, which had remained unoccupied for over a year. However, in his unwavering determination, Nick insisted that Davina stay with him until their impending court case concluded. He had promised not to intrude upon her space or rearrange her belongings, going so far as to take charge of cooking meals for her. Nick's objective was to provide Davina with a sense of comfort and security akin to that she would experience within the confines of her familiar abode."Ah, you're home!"

Dinner is ready," Nick responded, placing the final course on the dining table with a sense of accomplishment.Upon ent
