Billionaire’s Unseen Love (Bella and Alex)

Chapter 78

78 Acknowledging the Truth

In the aftermath of the charity gala, Alex found himself alone in his office, his mind a tumultuous sea of

emotions. The revelations about Lillian’s actions and Nathan’s unfounded dislike for Emma had left him

deeply unsettled. The silence of the office seemed to amplify his thoughts, each one echoing louder

than the last.

Alex leaned back in his chair, his gaze lost in the distance. He thought about Emma’s transformation,

her resilience in the face of adversity, and how she had risen above the malicious plots that Lillian had

woven around her. He realized, with a growing sense of clarity, how little he had known about the

struggles Emma had faced.

A knock at the door broke his reverie. It was Collins, his assistant, who hesitantly entered the room. Sir,

about earlier… Lillian’s actions, and Nathan’s opinions, I think…”

Alex raised his hand, signaling his personal assistant to stop. “No need to say more, Collins. I’ve seen

enough today to know the truth. The truth about Lillian, about Nathan, and most importantly, about

Emma.”

Collins nodded, understanding his boss’s sentiments. “What will you do now, sir?” Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Alex stood up, walking towards the window, looking out at the city lights. “I owe Emma an apology, a

genuine one. For years, I’ve been blind to her struggles, too caught up in my own perceptions. I need

to make amends, not for her forgiveness, but for my own peace of mind.”

Collins listened silently, knowing the weight of such a decision on Alex’s shoulders.

“And Lillian?” Collins asked cautiously.

Alex’s expression hardened. “Lillian must learn that actions have consequences. I won’t shield her

anymore. She needs to face the repercussions of what she’s done.”

Collins nodded in agreement. It was a tough decision, but necessary.

“What about Nathan?”

Alex sighed, a hint of sadness in his voice. “Nathan’s my friend, but I can’t condone his baseless dislike

for Emma. I need to have a serious talk with him. If he can’t see reason, then maybe it’s time to

reassess our friendship.”

Collins stood by, a silent pillar of support. Alex’s resolve to confront these difficult truths marked a

turning point, one that would redefine his relationships and his future.

As the night deepened, Alex remained by the window, his thoughts turning over the events of the day.

The realization of his ignorance, the understanding of Emma’s strength, and the need to correct past

wrongs weighed heavily on him.

The journey towards redemption and self–discovery is often a solitary one, but for Alex, it was a

necessary path to tread. In acknowledging the truth, he had taken the first step towards a new

beginning, one that would hopefully lead to healing and a better understanding of those around him.
