A Contract With Mr. Billionaire 74. Cole dismissal (2)
Third-person Pov There was a perfect silence in the room for about ten seconds before everyone erupted and started murmuring to themselves. Cole was completely shocked by what Gavin just said, to the point where he could only stare at Gavin for about thirty long seconds before finally getting himself together. “You do realize that you just made a very serious accusation, right? You're accusing me of being a criminal and of endangering the company's reputation when everyone here knows how hard I have worked to keep this company running,” he said, his anger evident. “That is precisely why it is such a disappointment that you've allowed your greediness to cloud your love for the company, Cole. I may not be your biggest fan, and you and I constantly have disagreements, but I used to always acknowledge that you did a good job with the company,” Gavin said, trying to seem disappointed so it wouldn't be too obvious that he had targeted Cole. “But the fact that you no longer care about

THIRD PERSON POVWhitney arrived just in time as they took Cole out of the boardroom. She didn’t plan to miss the show but something came up and she had to prioritize it over this as it had to do with getting rid of the evidence that would lead to her foster father's death back to her. Cole glared at her the moment he saw her. Whitney had a proud smile on her face. She was glad to have come in time to see him as he was taken away.“Well, well, well,” Whitney uttered as she walked closer to him.“I’m guessing you have been dismissed isn’t that it?” Whitney clicked her tongue.Cole furrowed his eyebrows as he glared at her. “How the fuck did you know and what the fuck are you doing here?”“Oh darling Cole. You probably know nothing at all. I mean how do I expect you to know anything?”She placed her palm on his shoulder and he shrugged it off. “What did you do?”“What did I do? I did what I had to do and that was making sure that you learned the hard way. What did you take me for anyw

THIRD PERSON POV“Do you want to join Monique and me for dinner tonight?” Gavin suggested.“What?” Whitney sounded surprised to hear what Gavin said. She didn’t expect him to ask her to join him and Monique for dinner. She didn’t expect him to accept to celebrate with her either. “Yes. You heard me right. I want you to join Monique and me for dinner this evening. We are planning to celebrate after all we took Cole down and it was all because of you?” He said to her.Whitney tried to digest all that he had just said and it was only after then that she snapped out of it. “Wow. I didn’t expect you to accept that though but it’s nice,” she said.“Alright then. We shall see later tonight. 8 pm and my place,” he said.The skin between Whitney’s brows creased. She found it suspicious that he would accept to celebrate with her and now she found it more suspicious that he invited her over at his place.She tried to think positively about his invitation but she just couldn’t because why was h

Third-person Pov Whitney knew that this was her biggest chance to date, and she wasn't about to let go of such an opportunity with Gavin. He had dropped her off in her hotel room, even going as far as carrying her on his back and taking her to the room directly. "Are you okay?” he asked, wearing a concerned look on his face that pleased Whitney.She liked how he seemed genuinely concerned about her, and she also liked the fact that she was getting closer to what she wanted. “Yeah, I'm alright. My ankle still hurts a lot, but thanks to your kindness, I won't have to deal with that much pain when I wake up tomorrow,” she responded.Gavin nodded. “That's good to hear. Now that you're feeling better, I guess it's time for me to leave. I wouldn't want Monique to feel uncomfortable, so it's best that I leave now and you and I can talk later,” he said, preparing to escape from here. It wasn't until they arrived at the hotel that he realized how much of a bad idea it was for him to bri
A Contract With Mr. Billionaire 78. Never leaving
Third-person Pov Monique had been on her way to the cemetery when, all of a sudden, she got a call from Gavin's father, requesting that she meet up with him. Today was her mother's death anniversary, which she didn't tell Gavin about since he still didn't know anything about her family and she wasn't ready to share with him. She had tried to tell Gavin's father that she wouldn't be able to meet up with him because she had something else to do, but he wasn't having it, and eventually she had to agree to meet him. Now, she had arrived at his office and was visibly shaking in her boots because she could already imagine how bad this meeting could go. His secretary had informed her that he was in a meeting and that he would join her very soon, so she was patiently waiting for him to arrive and also waiting to hear what he would have to say. While she was waiting, she would take a look around the office and start to feel intimidated all over again. She already knew Gavin was wealth
A Contract With Mr. Billionaire 79. Please go ahead
THIRD PERSON POV “You want healing?” Gavin’s dad scoffed. He adjusted himself properly on his seat, not once breaking the eye's contract with Monique. Monique had firmly held eye contact with him wanting to let him know that she wasn’t going to back down because of anything. He called her here to speak to her in a condescending tone which didn’t sit well with her. Gavin’s father felt insulted but Monique felt she was still being respectful towards him because if he was someone else, she’d have said a lot more than she had said to him. “If you want healing then you will do well by going to the hospital or go look for some therapist to help you heal. Not my son. My son isn’t a heart healer or a rescuer of damaged souls,” he chided. “I will not accept you. You have done well by poking me and giving me more reasons to never want you around so I will tell you this for free,” he paused to take a deep breath. “You should get yourself out of my son's life all by yourself before I

THIRD PERSON POV“I was worried all day. You didn’t tell me where it was that you were going to and your phone was switched off. What happened?” Gavin asked concern laced in his tone as he walked towards her to hug her.He heaved a sigh of relief the moment she was in his arms. “You don’t know how worried I was. Where did you go?”He pulled back from the hug to take a closer look at her to make sure that nothing had happened to her and that she was fine. “I’m sorry,” Monique apologized as she pulled away from him, making him more worried than he already was because it was unlike her to act this way.“Are you sure that you are fine? It doesn't seem that way. What is it? Do you want to talk about it?” He asked as he followed closely behind her towards the room.Monique sighed. “I’m good.”He doesn’t believe her and it made him a little pissed that she wasn’t telling him what was wrong when it was evident that something was up.“Monique,” Gavin stopped her from walking as he grabbed her
A Contract With Mr. Billionaire 81. Trauma (1)
Third-person Pov Monique was grateful for Gavin's patience and how he wasn't trying to pressure her to talk at all. He was quietly comforting her, and it made her feel safe enough to the point where she was not ready to explain things to him and how her life had turned for the worst thanks to her father. “Remember when we were in Greece that I told you that my mother had gotten the bracelet she had given to me in Greece as well?” she asked. Gavin nodded. “Of course I remember. I think you mentioned something about her being on a trip with someone she loved, and that was how she got the bracelet made,” he responded, remembering that she had mentioned something along that line.Monique scoffed. Anytime she remembered just how much her mother loved her father, she felt angry all over again because it only made her realize how much her mother prioritized her father over her. In every situation where her mother could have gotten out of that relationship and avoided what happened even

Third-person Pov “Con artist Jennifer Cabello has finally been caught after years of escaping the authorities. She has a record of drugging, manipulating, and stealing from men, as well as marrying them, and faking abuse in order to get divorce settlements. She was also discovered to be the murderer of her foster father, Robin Owen, as well as being involved in a drug-related business,” the newscaster went on, and Monique watched with a satisfied smile on her face. It's been a few days since Whitney was arrested, and as soon as she heard the news of her arrest, she hasn't stopped smiling. She couldn't believe that the person who almost ruined her life, as well as the lives of many other people, had finally been brought to justice, and she couldn't wait to hear what sentence Whitney was going to be given. She was currently at the rooftop of a restaurant, waiting for Gavin to arrive, and while she was waiting, she had decided to catch up on the news on her phone because she was eag

Third-person POV Whitney was nervous, but she tried not to show how nervous she was, especially since she was going to be dealing with gang members, and she couldn't afford to let them know she was a novice. She wasn't about to give them the privilege of walking all over her, so she maintained a bold look on her face, and was very much ready to meet with them, close the deal and be on her way. She had been waiting for about half an hour now, and it was already late into the night.“Why the hell are they not coming?” she wondered out loud as her impatience grew. She typically wasn't a very patient person, and because of how dangerous what she was about to do was, she needed them to get here as soon as possible so that she can get this over with. After waiting for another five minutes, she would spot a thug like man walking toward her, and immediately think to herself that it had to be one of the gang members. “Whitney?” he asked when he finally approached her, and she couldn't h

THIRD PERSON POV“Are you certain that if you see the face of the person you can tell?” The police officer asked the elderly man who claims to have seen someone visit the late Mr. Robin before he died.“Yes, I am certain. That day a lady came by the house. I was taking a stroll around that street. The street is usually quiet because nobody lives there. That cottage is the only cottage there and each time I took a stroll there, I never saw anyone so I was surprised to see a young pretty lady.” The man revealed. He continued with his statements, “I didn’t see her face at first until she turned to look around before entering the house.”“It was during the day that she entered the cottage but at midnight, I saw that lady leaving the cottage and you might be wondering what I was doing there so I will tell you,” he said to the officers before they questioned him any further.“As an old man, I take a stroll a lot of the time because of my legs. It was quite late when I was returning to my h
A Contract With Mr. Billionaire 94. Tomorrow
Whitney's Pov I was seriously running out of money, and it was making me anxious. I had spent way too long at the hotel, as well as spending a lot of money there, but after the stunt I pulled in Gavin's house, I really checked out of the hotel and came to a much cheaper one. I couldn't remember the last time I stayed in such a cheap hotel, but because I didn't have any more money to spluuch and I also needed to remain low-key for a while, I had no other choice but to forcefully enjoy my stay here. I still hadn't heard any news on what happened in the house, but I was desperately hoping that I would hear about Monique's death because that was the only thing that could make me happy. I desperately needed to hear that she was paying for mocking me and that Gavin was whiling away in his misery for daring to make a fool of me. I had a television on for that reason, and I also kept scrolling and scrolling on the internet to see if the news would come up. It had been almost a da
A Contract With Mr. Billionaire 93. Still in shock
Third-person Pov Despite everything, Monique still could not believe what she had just experienced. It all still felt like a dream to her, and she was waiting for someone to wake her up from this horrible nightmare that she just had. If there was one thing she had avoided all her life, it was getting involved in any situation that could lead to a fire. She was always extra careful when it came to anything that could cause a fire, so the fact that she experienced being in a fire again after trying so hard to avoid it all her life made her feel like she was losing her mind. It also reminded her of everything that she had gone through in her childhood, starting from how she would have died in the fire that her father started if her mother hadn't protected her and how a fire was what ended her mother's life. It had all come rushing back to her in that moment, and now that she was out of danger, she couldn't remember the fear she had felt while it was happening and how it had resur
A Contract With Mr. Billionaire 92. Infiltrating
THIRD PERSON POVIt was the day for Whitney to meet up with the men Cole wanted her to meet. She had six hours before the said time but she had something else going on in her mind.“I think it’s best I do this now before going over there,” she said to herself.As much as she wanted to relax and wait for some other time, for some reason, she felt now was the perfect time for her to do what she wanted. “Do it. Don’t do it. Do it. Don’t do it.” She chanted until she decided to do what it was that she had in mind because she knew that she wouldn’t be able to get it off her mind if she didn't do it.She changed into an entirely different outfit that consisted of a short and white polo shirt. She put some kerosene in a small container. She put on a blackface cap before leaving the hotel room.She didn’t have any makeup on as she wanted her disguise to be so perfect. Whitney planned to infiltrate Gavin’s mansion and set the room where Monique was on fire.She had been thinking about it sinc

THIRD PERSON POV“I am never going to lose. I am not one to lose and Gavin chose the wrong person to mess with.” Whitney muttered to herself as she watched Gavin and Monique walk away look so happyShe clenched her fist with a frown on her face as knots in her stomach tightened. It hurts so much that she feels this way. She didn’t expect any of this to happen. When she did what she did for him, she expected to have a but it seems Gavin wouldn’t give her that and she refused to lose.She had lost everything as it was and even if she had to do the worst of it all to get what she wanted then she’d do it and if she could not get what she wanted then nobody would get what they wanted.With that thought in her, she walked away with so much in her mind. She was thinking of her to fight back and what to do to make Monique pay. When she returned to her hotel room, she went for a long shower because it was usually in her showers, for the craziest of her ideas.When she came out of the bathroom
A Contract With Mr. Billionaire 90. Coming for her
Whitney's Pov I was in my car, waiting outside Gavin Jones's estate to see if at any point he would come out of the house.I had tried calling him a few more times, but it seemed like he had completely blocked my number, which made absolutely no sense, and it annoyed me in ways that I couldn't even begin to describe. I wanted to see if I would run into him by chance, so I was waiting for him and hoping that he would come out of the house so that I would pretentiously run into him and ask him why he was avoiding me after I helped him. After waiting for almost two hours and wondering if I should give up or not, I finally spotted a car driving out of the estate. I couldn't see who was behind the car, but seeing how one of the security guards bowed, I concluded that it had to be Gavin and no one else. My curiosity getting the better of me, I followed behind the car and drove behind it for about an hour until the car finally stopped in front of a spa that I recognized. When I realize
A Contract With Mr. Billionaire 89. The uninvited guest
Third-person Pov “Can you explain to me what the hell you're doing here, dad?” Gavin questioned impatiently as he stared at his father with an annoyed look on his face. He could immediately tell that his mother had gotten uncomfortable seeing that his father had suddenly shown up, and the last thing he wanted was for his mother to be uncomfortable. “What is it, Gavin? Can't I come here to see my ex-wife after she finally recovered from her stroke? Am I in the wrong for coming to pay her a visit?” Gabriel Jones questioned, wearing an amused look on his face that only pissed Gavin off even more.He turned to look at his mother and Monique, who were both staring back and forth at them with confused looks on their faces as well. “Mon, could you please escort my mother to her bedroom and keep her there until I'm done escorting this man out of the house?” he requested.Gabriel scoffed. “I didn't come here to see you, and I'm definitely not going to be escorted out of here without speak
