A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love

An hour later, they arrived. Paulina stormed into the ward to see her niece Daisy, who recently almost lost the baby she was carrying.

Paulina seethed at the sight of Daisys mistreatment.

Where is Albert? she bellowed.

Daisy averted her gaze, murmuring, Hes tied up with work. Aunt Paulina, he wont be coming any time soon.

Paulina sighed in disappointment. The companys in Heron, right? Yet hes been in Duefron for the past few months. Daisy, youre too lenient! Since you cant rein him in, Ill have to do it! After her remark, Paulina made her exit.

Aunt Paulina! Daisy, in a panic, tried to follow Paulina but was too weak to stand.

Melissa stayed put, and then suddenly whispered, Maam, truth is, you dont really love Mr. Watson.

Her gaze flickered to Daisys belly.

Daisy froze, shielding her stomach, suspecting Melissa had uncovered something.

It was all speculation on Melissas part.

Albert was no spring chicken. Even if he didnt love Daisy, hed feel something for their baby.

Unless he wasnt the father.

Daisys guilty look spoke volumes.

Without another word, Melissa sighed and left the room.

Dialing Alberts number as she walked, he picked up after a few rings. Mr. Watson, Mrs. Watson might be after Jessie! Whats the plan Alberts voice was hushed. ll take care of it! After the call, he tried Jessie, but she had blocked him.

He grabbed his car keys, heading straight to her hotel.

When he arrived, Paulina was already giving Jessie grief. Her arrogance was on full display, her bodyguards causing chaos in Jessies office. Jessies secretary tried to call the cops but was stopped by the guards.

Paulina approached Jessie slowly.

She delicately grasped Jessies chin, eyeing her from head to toe, and smirked. Quite the looker! Jessie brought back memories of Helen.

Alberts real mother! Back then, Paulinas husband fell hard for Helens looks and charm.

Even after Helen found out his deception and dumped him, he couldnt shake her. Their intimacy dwindled, leaving Paulina childless. To top it off, now she had to side with Albert, Helens son, to safeguard the Watson Group.

Paulina despised them! And now, all her fury was directed at the young, beautiful girl before her. She lashed out, slapping Jessie repeatedly until her ears rang.

Jessies secretary shrieked.

But Jessie remained cool as a cucumber. She knew she couldnt fight back. She locked eyes with Paulina and saw through her. She taunted, Youre mad about your husbands cheating, huh? Shouldnt you dig him up and give him a piece of your mind? Why take it out at me? Paulina scowled.

Jessie smirked. Are you really here for revenge on Alberts wife? If you cared, whyd you marry her off to him knowing hes a player? Youre such a phony!

Paulina seethed even more. She barked, Teach her a lesson! Snap some pretty pics.

Back in her day, Paulina dealt with her husbands mistresses by snapping nude photos.

Hearing this, a few guards swooped in to drag Jessie away.

Jessie shrieked. Whats your deal? Im warning you, lay a finger on me, and Ill dig up your hubbys bones, bury him with his flings and make you green with envy! Paulina quivered with rage, ready to slap Jessie again.

Suddenly, the door burst open.

Albert stormed in, shooting Paulina a frosty glare.

Theyd clashed countless times before.

She sneered. Finally decided to show your face! Albert surveyed Jessies swollen cheek and Paulinas haughty demeanor.

Time usually brought maturity, but in this moment, he lost control.

Approaching Paulina, he delivered a resounding slap for everyone to witness.

Her tooth went flying.

With her hair a mess, she sat stunned for a while.

Eventually, she looked up incredulously. You little bastard, how dare you hit me? Do you still want to run Watson Group? Albert grabbed her collar roughly, his face dark. Shed never seen him so furious. Coldly, he stated, I warned you not to harm her! But you wouldnt listen! Wondering if Id dare hit you? Heres your answer! If it werent for my mom, youd be done for. Sick of your constant trouble! You old hag, Ive put up with you Long enough! Paulina seethed but no words escaped her Lips.

Albert shoved her aside.

He warned, You touch her again, and Waston Groups history! ll doit, swear to God! Dont test me!

Jessie caught every word.

She realized he loved her but what good was it? He married someone else and had his own child.

Tears streamed down Jessies face, the heartache outweighing the visible pain.

Albert approached her slowly. He wanted to touch her wound but hesitated. After a while, he simply whispered, Jessie! Jessie gazed at Albert, with blood in her mouth, but she swallowed the ache and looked at him in the eyes.

She said with a light tone, You saw it, right? You said youd look out for me but its been nothing but trouble. Could you and your family stay away from me, Mr. Watson? Please, Im begging you!

Alberts heart hurt hearing Jessies words.

After a pause, he said gently, Let me get you to the hospital.

Jessie declined but Albert insisted because her face was swollen.

He felt he couldnt leave Jessie in that state, even if they werent together anymore.

So he took her away forcefully.

Since Jessie resisted, Albert had to carry her to the car. This drew the attention from the hotel staff.

Jessie tried to escape once she was put in the car but Albert had locked the doors.

He held her hand, voice hoarse as he said, Please, stop fighting with me.
