Billionaire’s Unseen Love (Bella and Alex)

Chapter 43

43 Unraveling Control

Alex’s unexpected arrival the morning after her wild night out startled Lillian, who shrieked at the sight

of her brother. She always held a deep–seated fear of Alex, complying with his dictates since

childhood. His stern expression told her all she needed to know.

“Why are you here, Alex? You know I was out all night,” Lillian stammered, clutching her blanket

around her naked body nervousty

Alex addressed her calmly, observing her discomfort but choosing not to embarrass her further. “Do

you understand the repercussions your actions with Nathan could have on our family’s reputation and

business?”

Lillian, defiant despite her nervousness, responded, “It’s just justice for the past. What’s the harm in

exposing the truth about Kimina?”

Alex’s patience waned, “Those photos are far from ‘truth.‘ They’re misleading and damaging. As of

now, you’re grounded. No access to your finances until you learn your lesson.”

He left swiftly, pondering Emma’s peculiar behavior around his family. Had she been silently enduring

unseen challenges all these years? A sense of regret washed over him. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Enraged at her newfound confinement, Lillian lashed out by throwing her pillow across the room, her

frustration boiling over. She impulsively picked up her phone and dialed Emma’s number, intending to

confront her for involving Alex,

Emma, caught off guard by the call but quickly regaining composure, listened to Lillian’s tirade. “I

warned Alex to control you. Now, your family will face the consequences.”

After ending the call abruptly, even as Lillian continued her tirade, Emma turned her attention to a

previously discarded business proposal. Jada entered, curious about the sudden interest in the old

project.

“I was giving them a chance to save face after the divorce,” Emma explained. “But their relentless

provocation leaves me no choice. It’s time to fully confront their deceit.”

Jada’s eyes sparkled with anticipation. “They underestimated you, Emma. Now they’ll learn the cost of

their arrogance.”

Emma made

up her mind and started preparing to launch her own counterstrike, demonstrating her resolve to no

longer tolerate the machinations of Lillian and her brother.
