Billionaire's Stubborn Slave Wife novel Chapter 9

"Matthew, I ...... am in pain," Lauren suddenly covered her chest, a painful expression appeared on her face.

Matthew looked at Lauren, who was in pain, and froze for a moment. Her reaction was not like the reaction that would occur if she was hit with an aphrodisiac. And the fact that Lauren showed no more frantic movements at all, other than being powerless, all made Matthew feel strange.

"Lauren, is this another one of your tricks to seduce me? I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, because I won't be fooled."

"I ......" The pain in her chest prevented her from saying a complete sentence, and she could only look at Matthew helplessly. Her raised hands suddenly fell weakly, and then she fell to the ground, unconscious.

When Matthew saw Lauren fall to the ground and her face was unusually pale, he realized that something was not right. He rushed to Lauren's side and put his hand on her forehead, feeling the temperature of her forehead.

Oh my God, it was so cold. It seemed that he had misunderstood her, and she hadn't lied.

Matthew immediately carried Lauren to bed and called Leo.

About ten minutes later, Leo, who had already gone home, came to Matthew's apartment again.

"Matthew, I just got home, and this time, she better really be sick and die." Leo stood in front of Matthew and his face was very impatient.

"What the hell is wrong with her? Why did she faint? Why does she have such a painful expression on her face?" Matthew pointed at Lauren who was lying on the bed and asked Leo loudly.

"Matthew, what kind of attitude is that? You must not forget that you are Anne's fiancé. You should also not forget that you once promised me that you would guard Anne with all your heart for the rest of your life. Now you care so much about this woman, is it because she has occupied a more important place in the heart than Anne? Don't you feel guilty about Anne? She is crippled because of you!"

Matthew faced Leo's accusation, he had nothing to say, because what Leo said was the truth. In a distant foreign country, there was indeed a naive and lovely woman who was crippled in both legs because of him.

Leo walked up to Matthew.

"Matthew, I don't want to put any pressure on you. I know that if you don't avenge your mother, you will never feel happy for the rest of your life, and you don't dare to feel peace inside, so I hide it from Anne and don't let her know about the existence of this woman. But Matthew, I don't want you to forget your promise to her and lose your heart to the daughter of your enemy."

Matthew looked at Lauren, who was lying in bed, unconscious, and he nodded his head to show that he knew.

"Leo, don't worry, in this life, my wife, will only be Anne. Lauren is just a toy, a slave. You help me heal her now, I don't want to see her lying in bed in a coma all the time, her being in this state will hinder my revenge plan."

Leo sighed softly. He walked over to Lauren's bed, he looked at the unconscious Lauren, a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.

"There's nothing serious wrong with her, I've given her the antidote. But to teach her a lesson, I added a little bit of medicine that will make her feel pain to her antidote. Don't worry, this drug won't kill her, it will only make her painful for a few days."

"You ......" Matthew rushed to Leo's front, he pulled up his collar with force, his eyes were full of anger.

Leo looked at the angry Matthew and he sneered. He still had his signature smile on his face, but his whole body radiated a coldness that was impossible to ignore.

"Matthew, as Anne's fiancé, isn't your reaction too excessive? Don't you forget that it was her mother who made your mother die a tragic death under a man, and it was her mother who made you lose your happy childhood as a child, and then live every day worse than a dog."

Leo's words made Matthew drop his hand helplessly, and then he fell into deep thought. He didn't even notice when Leo left.

For several days in a row, Lauren did not see Matthew, which made her a little uneasy. Although she did not know how the drug in her body was eliminated, but she knew that he did not give her to other men, did this mean that she still had a certain place in his heart?

A happy smile appeared on her face when she thought that there was this possibility.

"Secretary Lee, did you already know that the boss has a fiancée?"

The colleague from the secretary department with the newspaper in her hand walked up to Lauren.

"What are you guys talking about? When did the boss have a fiancée? How come I don't know? I've been his secretary for 3 years, and in those 3 years, I haven't heard the boss mention anything about his fiancée, are you guys mistaken?"

Lauren looked at the few colleagues in front of her in confusion, she didn't know why, she felt an unspoken pain deep inside her.

When the colleagues saw that Lauren didn't believe it, one of the secretaries put the newspaper in her hand, directly in front of her.

"Look, this is the headline in today's newspaper. And I heard that the reason the boss didn't show up at the office these days was to pick up his fiancée abroad. Although his fiancée is crippled in both legs, she is beautiful and most importantly, she is loved by the boss."

This secretary pointed to the largest page of the newspaper and described to Lauren the love of the boss and his fiancée in a tone full of envy.

Lauren's face turned white instantly when she saw the picture in the newspaper of Matthew tenderly kissing the woman in the wheelchair. She took several steps backward because of the great pain inside her.

"This ...... is not true? He can't have a fiancée."

Lauren couldn't believe what she was seeing. Her beautiful eyes slowly filled with tears.

"Ouch, Lauren, you can't accept it? But this is the truth, in your life, you are destined to be only Matthew's toy when he is bored, only the noble woman in the photo will be his wife."

Jennifer just walked into the office and saw Lauren looking at today's newspaper with a pale face. She was very happy to see the always calm and strong Lauren with such an expression on her face.
