A SILENT BRIDE FOR THE BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 100
I was towering high, heaving my chest up while glaring at Julian furiously: this to remind you of the tone; next time around that the devil wishes to push, you shall say no. In fact, the very enunciated words held such an amount of venom in the sound of my voice, so strongly did it have been full.The next thing I did was to slap him again. "Slaaaa!" The second time it came just as firm, just as strong, as the first had. Julian's eyes widened in shock, his face contorting in pain as he fell back, hands flying up to cradle his cheek once more."This slap will erase all kinds of escape notions with me running in your head." I told him in cold, blunt tones that had absolutely no room for empathy."I am not running anywhere with you, neither are you my responsibility," words which were heavy doses of poison, amounting disgust to Julian with each word.And then, for good measure, I slapped him again. "Slaaaa!" For the third time, just as hard and as fierce as the first two were, Julian's e

AT ADRIAN WORKPLACEAdrian reached his workplace feeling distractingly preoccupied, as if something had been nagging at his mind since morning. He felt elsewhere in his mind, lost in a maze of thoughts that seemed to swirl around him, digging him deep into their vortex. He tried to focus on the tasks ahead, but his brain refused to cooperate, stubbornly insisting on replaying the memories of his encounters with Jenny.He uttered to himself in a whisper that was almost incomprehensible because of the pats and ticks of his fidgeting footsteps, "I think I am getting addicted, and attracted, to Jenny. It sent down a shiver up his back, and into the pit of his stomach it settled unease.He sought to rationalize such feelings with the thought that a marriage was just some piece of paper-a business deal with no strings attached. "I don't need to give her my heart," he reminded himself, the words echoing within his brain as if a form of mantra. Yet, despite all this, he simply could not dispe

The feature on nice beaches running on some travel show took my attention with the nicest around town as my attention took to, the scan in its each beauties on, transparent waters, sand a powdery white color, with pictures of palm trees that turned long in my aches to have them for myself and right there and right here with Adrian.I was daydreaming about our next beach outing, the one that is usually scheduled to happen. I'd imagined us strolling along the water, feeling the sun against our skin, the wind cooling and light through our hair. I could visualize them, laughing and frolicking in the waves, sitting together and watching the sun set. It all just about got too much for me.Just as I was getting completely lost in that virtual tour, a car horn cut through the air; Adrian would be back. My heart leapt with a big bright smile across my face, for I was so full of excitement and affection. I just couldn't wait to see him, greet him with a kiss on the forehead, and excitedly liste

The only sound in the bathroom was the running water, and Adrian was standing under the faucet, eyes closed, his face expressionless. I waited for some sort of response, but he seemed a million miles away, isolated in his thoughts and emotions. A big lump formed in my throat, realizing that something seriously was wrong and I had no idea on how to fix it.I stood there, watching Adrian, my mind wandering through the many times we had shared: the laughter, the tears, the moments of pure joy and happiness. And now, it seemed like all was being threatened by some unknown force. A feeling of desperation rose inside me as I desperately tried to think of ways to reach out to him, to bring him back to me.But with every passing minute, Adrian was quiet-body screaming for "stay away." I felt like walking on eggshells without knowing what to do or say to break this tension.An oppressive silence filled the bathroom, and I waited for something, anything to tell me Adrian was still with me, that

I sat down and, with the first mouthful of food, just savored it, really enjoyed the flavors and textures. The jollof rice had just the proper amount of pepper, and chicken was tender yet juicy; crisp and sweet were the plantains. It all tasted so divine, and for that, I was grateful-I had Helen and her care again.As I ate, my mind wandered to my good fortune at having Helen in my life. She was a great deal more than a housekeeper; she was quite literally one of a kind, the best friend, confidante, and source of reassurance. Appreciative of her existence in my life, I so well knew that no matter what was in store, I would forever have her to fall back upon.I felt this tingling, as she finally turned her back and left the room; any moment, he would be out of the bathroom, and we could sit down together to eat. Adrian and I liked eating together; over the plate of food, we shared some peculiar bond. He would feed me, or vice-versa, our eyes, brimming with love, locked into each other'

My eyes teared up, ready to spill out and run down my cheeks. I tried holding them in, but it was useless. They started to flow, hot and salty, as the weight of my emotions bore down on me. I was crying for Adrian for the pain, the sadness he was causing me. I cried for us, for love that was, and all the memories we had built together.With the silence and darkness around me, I felt myself being drained out, into the abyss of nothing. The sadness and despair wrapping around me seemed to have swallowed me, with no way of getting out or finding my way back.It catapulted me backward to the surface. All I could do was to sit there, in a private hell of my own, and speculate on why I was condemned to this kind of fate.And the tears didn't subside but kept flowing upon their current of sorrow and heartache. I felt smothered by them, as if they had swept me off in a tide of despair. I had been helpless, powerless, unable to do anything against the pain and sadness now overwhelming me. The

As I stood before him, my eyes searching for answers, I could not help but feel a deep sense of hurt and confusion. "Why should I sleep in the guest room, Adrian?" I asked him, trying to raise my voice with an amalgamation of emotions, marshaling up the courage to confront him.I walked up to him, placing my hands on his shoulders with a gentle touch, hoping that this would strike a chord and bring about a sense of closeness.Instead, what met me was a cold tone that cut across, slicing into the air: "Jenny, just leave me alone, just go," Adrian suddenly yelled in an almost deafening voice. His voice sent shock through my open eyes as if to question or ask what all was happening at this very important moment.I stepped back, my hands dropping to my sides as if stinging just had started radiating from my heart.I stepped backward, my hands falling to my sides as a stinging sensation began to emanate from my heart."Adrian, I've stayed with you in our matrimonial bed," I said, trying to

The firmness in his voice threw me; he had never spoken with me this way. Really caught off guard, for a moment there, I had just stood fixed, frozen with shock and unsure of what exactly to do next. Maybe, I thought quickly, he was having a bad day. He must be under stress or somehow overwhelmed.Slowly, my feet turned and began to walk away, leaving Adrian to his loneliness. My heart was heavy as I made my way to the guest room, my feet moving of their own accord while my brain tried to take in all that had just occurred.As the door shut behind me, a pang hit my heart from sadness and disappointment. I knew Adrian and I could pull through, were sure that eventually we would make it through everything and come back even stronger than before.But as I stood all by myself in the guest room, I wondered if that had been a pipe dream. I breathed in and let my gaze travel around the room, attempting to still the tempests inside.I just pray that tomorrow he will be fine, I said to myself-

His lips, a soft summer breeze that whispered secrets, touched mine as he whispered, "I love you, baby." And with that, my spine tingled like the summer breeze rustling through the leaves of a tree.The surrounding crowd erupted into cheers and applause, a stormy sea against the shores."Awwww!" they screamed, the chorus of delight sighs, while a symphony orchestra started playing joyful melodies. The notes were dancing in the air like a thousand small butterflies flying around while Adrian and I shared a kiss, like two lovers lost in the magic of their own private world.This song floated through the air, like a few clouds lazily drifting across a summer sky, and Adrian and I succumbed to its romantic allure, swaying our bodies to its rhythm like two trees dancing in the breeze.Sweet was the serenade of this melody, the symphony of love and longing, its notes whispering sweet nothings in our ears like the gentle caress of a lover. Moving in perfect harmony across the floor, we felt

Adrian's voice, "Please don't go, baby, I'm sorry," lingered in the air, like a fragile flower swaying in the wind. A sadness washed over me, like a spring rain on a morning, softly finding its way to my heart.His hands gripped my legs, a lifeline, clinging to me with a desperation that was nearly palpable, as though he thought that if he let me go, I would be gone from him forever, like sand between his fingers."It's late, Adrian," I told him, my voice gentle but firm, a summer breeze through leaves, attempting to soothe his ragged nerves."Please, I'm only returning, I don't need a headache," I continued, my voice a gentle plea, pleading for understanding as I struggled to shift my legs, to squirm free of his grasp. But Adrian clung tight, his gaze locked on mine, his voice quivering with feeling, like a fragile vase ready to topple."I'm sorry, my love," he whispered, his voice a sincere apology, a desperate bid for reconciliation, as he lifted his eyes to mine, brimming with tea

Adrian turned to him, his eyes narrowing slightly, like a curtain pulled against the light."Who are you and what are you talking about?" Adrian asked, his voice calm and peaceful, like some stream meandering its way across a tranquil countryside. The words seemed to fall like a question mark, while waiting for an answer.His mask of confidence fluttered; his face slipping open onto a glimpse of uncertainty underneath. "D-dude, I'm so sorry," he stammered, the words skipping from his tongue like a scratched record, hesitant and unsure. "I must have mistaken you for someone else," he finished saying, the sentence trailing off almost at a sigh over the acknowledgment of his mistake.Adrian's eyes, like a drill trying to pierce through steel, pierced into the soul of the man in search of answers. With a dismissive sigh, like a wave that washes over the shore, Adrian turned and walked out of the shop, leaving the man standing alone, like a statue, frozen in time.As Adrian drove back home

We then got into his car, with the sleek and black vehicle glowing in the bright sunlight, softly upholstered, inviting leather, like a cozy cocoon.As we started driving to the cafeteria, it was a pleasant feeling with wind whistling through my hair, a song of joy, a sense of abandon, something like a caged bird free at last to soar into an open sky with wings of pure exhilaration.We took snapshots inside the car; our laughs, our smiles froze in those momentary flickers of time, like amber-preserving memories."Let's go and eat, please, I'm famished," Mr. German said. There was such a lot of warmth in his voice as he held my hands, sparking electrical currents into my body-like those jolts of adrenaline received on a roller coaster.We gained entrance to the cafeteria, where the savory smell of freshly cooked food filled the air, teasing my taste buds like a savory mist and making me hungry.We sat at a table, and I called out to the waiter; my voice sounded across the room, ringing

Soon thereafter, I whined up the tires on approach to this company's parking lot in protest and brought it to a stop: the screeching just seemed to hang in the air for a moment or two there-a scream of tortured rubber with its shudder, lurch to a stop, and coughing, protesting motor dying out.I breathed deeply, and the tension began to seep from my body like air from a balloon that has been punctured; my shoulders sagged in relief as my heart, though still racing, drummed a slower, more measured beat in my chest.The instant I got out of the car, bright sunlight wrapped itself around me, its warm rays fondling my frayed nerves. A cool breeze ruffled my hair with scents of flowers in bloom and newly cut grass, some sweet fragrance which seemed to soothe the senses, the racing heart."Good morning," the voice of the receptionist greeted happily, a vivid contrast to turmoil that was churning within me, the warm and inviting smile spreading like a sunrise."Good morning, dear," I replied

I couldn't hold myself any longer and burst out laughing. My laughter filled the room, bounced off the walls, and resounded everywhere. Deep, rich, full-bodied, a sound that seemed to emanate right from the core of me.My body was racked with mirth: my shoulders shook, my chest heaved with it, while I stood, my eyes shining with tears, my face alight with the joy of being finally happy-happy as though a weight had been lifted from my shoulders and a burden from my heart.Smiles danced across my face as I felt unhindered, high, enjoying my victory and revenge. It sounded like the laughter had washed all my cares off me, washed off all the fears, leaving me light and free, high.Just then I turned toward leaving the room; Adrian was stopping me off with words to hang upon for a moment-challenge and more. He told me where I could possibly go, without shame, or remorse, stared enticingly through dilated nostrils.And in that glance, I shivered, I thrilled, feeling a rush down my spine, me

Sweet and tangy, it did a tango on my tongue, the flavor bursting inside my mouth as for one moment it made me forget the tension that was building.I closed my eyes, savoring the taste, and the coolness of the juice as it ran down my throat like balm.Having drunk the juice, I went to the room where Adrian lay asleep-my intentions pure, my heart set on just sleeping well for tomorrow, a day to report to a new job. I lay down on the bed and feigned sleep, my eyes closed, breathing slowly.It was as if the darkness just wrapped itself around me, in a soft, comforting blanket. It wrapped around me, shielding me from the world. I felt my eyelids growing heavy, body relaxing, letting all the weariness of the day wash over me.But it wasn't to last. I felt the touch of Adrian's hand on my lap, the tips of his fingers touching my skin as an electric jolt bolted through my body. My eyes snapped open, and I sat up in a fluster, my voice ringing out loud."Stop it, please!" I screamed at him,

Slowly, I started getting ready, undressing and cleaning off the makeup from my face. Tender strokes of the wipe were soothing onto my frazzled nerves as I did everything really slowly.I relished this transformation-taking place, akin to a caterpillar finally making its way out into the world from its cocoon, rebirthed, renewed. I changed into something sexy and hot-a tight gown, fitted at my curves to a T, cuddling me at just about all the right places like into a second skin.And then, looking into the mirror well, I couldn't help but feel this surge of pride in me, a surge of confidence-half a queen surveying her kingdom.My full, round breasts stood to attention, their tender peaks upward like delicate water droplets glistening with a subtle sheen, like the first light of dawn breaking over the horizon. The dress was tight, showcasing every bend and contour of my body, like a work of art on display. I felt like a different person altogether, one ready for the world to bring it on

"It's okay, it's fine," I exclaimed heatedly, though with defeat; the words burst in a gush from my lips in one tumble, with every syllable coated with desperation and despair. I was tired of groveling, tired of reaching out to him, tired of the damn rejection that had worn down my heart through relentless barrage.I sprang up at once, swift, sure movements in every limb; my anger bore me on like a billow against which the shore breaks.I clutched onto the wicker food basket tight, the crackling of wicker in protest as I hoisted it from the table-the only sound heard through the quiet like a shout of defiance. The heavy feel of the basket in my hands was real and reminded me of the work that I had done for our love, so coldly thrown in the trash.I went out from behind the door of his office, my footsteps stumbling on the cold, hard floor; the sound itself appeared to resound inside the silence, an ultimatum, a declaration.The door stood looming over me, a barrier between me and the
