THE BILLIONAIRE'S DESIRE novel Chapter 24

CHAPTER 24

Daniella simply clenched her teeth at the man's actions. Marcus was clearly enjoying her misery! "How did you get here? You've convinced them that we've reconciled!" When they were alone upstairs, she reprimanded him.

"Is it really that difficult, Dani?" Marcus addressed her directly with the question he had been meaning to ask her since the garden picture session.

She tightened her teeth as she considered her alternatives before yelling loudly and clearly enough for everyone in the house to hear. "Exit!" She shouted again, and Paloma dashed to her side.

"Ella, what is the matter? Why can't you simply forgive him? It was the fault of his captain!" Paloma dashed to his rescue. She could understand Ella's rage, but it was entirely her husband's fault! If anybody should accept blame, it should be the commander who sent them the wrong person's ashes.

"Please, Ma, leave us alone. "I'd want to speak with him alone," she stated, dismissing her stepmother for intervening to protect the guy who stood in front of her callously and without remorse.

"All well, but I'm hoping you'll be sensible and give him another opportunity this time. I understand it's difficult, dear, but he's still alive," she didn't understand why Daniella struggled to let it go. She should feel relieved Marcus was returned in one piece!

"Reasonable? How am I to remain reasonable after catching him cheating on me?" Another fabrication was necessary to conceal another, and she couldn't care less if she went to Hell.

Marcus made a sneering remark about the woman's inventiveness. He believed he had trapped her, but she escaped unscathed! When he met Paloma's gaze, the celebrant threw daggers at him, and how could he ever win against two cruel women? He pressed his lips together and listened to Paloma's speech, while Daniella grinned in the corner. "I'm sorry," he said, and it was the worst mistake he had ever made, and he chastised himself for apologizing.

Daniella announced, "I want an annulment," which surprised Paloma more than Marcus.

"Ella! Are you delusory? How did you come to be so critical of AJ's father? Perhaps he was enticed by another warm body while you were unavailable. "Common Ella, don't hurry this annulment thing," Paloma pleaded with Daniella to reconsider annulling her marriage.

"I want to be alone," she murmured, and Paloma abruptly ceased speaking. "And you, Mr. Madrigal, I require your immediate departure!"

"Please, Dani," he pleaded.

"If you want me and AJ, Marcus, there is no way around it. "Take it or leave it," she stated emphatically. Although the man has become the father of her daughter, they were not in a relationship prior to this. If Marcus was prepared to accept the courtship challenge, he may earn another chance to show himself.

"I comprehend," he stated. He could see why the woman was passionate about taking him back, and she was correct that he desired to take the shortest route to her heart. "Inform me as to what I should do initially," he enquired.

"If you have no idea, it is pointless. So, when are you departing?" The man might just be overwhelmed by the fact that he is the father of her kid, which is why he announced his desire to re-enter her life...once again. No, she was not going to allow that!

"At a later time," he said. Ortega would be shocked to learn that their vacations had been shortened, but he has no option.

"All right," she responded, dismissing him.
