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 seventy-seven: Gabriel's moves

Madi's POV:

It's half-past seven in the morning and I was napping lightly when I heard the sound of my alarm clock. I reached for it to stop it from ringing but then I noticed it wasn't from the alarm clock but my phone. I answered it with my half-closed eyes and didn't bother looking at who the disturbing caller was on the screen. 

But I jolted up and my eyes widened when I heard the familiar voice from the other line and ... it's Gabriel. And since I got up quickly, I haven't noticed that I was already on the edge of the bed and the next thing I know, I was on the floor. How I wished my scream could save me, but no... I fell with a loud thud and with my butt first. 

"Hey! What happened to you?" concern was woven in his voice as I heard the loud bang from the other side of the door. 

"Fucking shit!" I cursed when I felt the sting on my butt and groaned in pain. 

"Opened this fucking door! What happened to you?"
