He only married me to show her that he already moved on

He has all the traits that you wished for your dream man to have. Power, money, perfection, handsomeness and a body like a Greek God. But he's in love. He's in love with her. For him, she is the completion of his dream, a perfect wife and a mother to be with his children. He would give her everything including his own life. He would sacrifice his world for her. But she left him. She betrayed him. She broke his heart into pieces. And he turned into a cold, heartless, rude and an arrogant billionaire, who would do everything to show her that she's no longer important into his life. Even though the truth is the opposite of what he is doing. His heart still aches for her. And that's when he met me. I applied as his Personal Assistant to fulfil my bucket list of dreams. To explore my life and experience everything. He offered me a deal. He asked me to marry him just to show his ex that he already moved on. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * "She's pregnant." He blurted out and I almost stumbled on where I am standing. I just gripped the backrest of the couch to support my weight. The pain creeping in my heart is unbearable but I managed to stay calm. "Wow! Congratulations!" I said faking my excitement as I remembered him saying... -cheating would not be the reason to break our marriage- of course I couldn't accuse him of this as 'cheating' because she was the real reason why we are pretending as a couple. He still loves her. He's still in love with her. And that's when I made the biggest decision in my life. Taking all my strength and a piece of my heart that still hanging on a thin rope... I left him. Taking also my biggest secret in me... that I've already fallen in love with him. Then I learned a lesson; 'Loving someone who doesn't love you back isn't as hard as loving someone who still in love with his ex and who just only uses you to get her back again into his life..'

Chapter ninety: Taken

Madi's POV:

"Tony, have you seen Noelle around the restaurant? I can't find her."

I asked our head waiter when I didn't find Noelle inside our office. It's already ten in the morning but I still can't see her. I've already checked the whole dining area, the kitchen, and even the outside of the restaurant, but there's no face of my best friend. I even tried to call her but her phone was out of coverage. 

"Actually Ms. Madi, she informed us yesterday that she's not going to work today."

"What?" I furrowed my eyebrows. "She informed you but she didn't even send me a quick message just to inform me? Oh, goodness!"

He didn't say anything, he just shrugged at me.

"Anyway, thank you, Tony." I smiled at him. 

"You're welcome, Ma'am."

When I got back to the office, I tried calling her again, but I've already spent five minutes dialing her number, but still, it has the same answer.. out of coverage.
