Addicted To A Billionaire CHAPTER 22
**Thelma.**"Dad, I was busy, so I did not take out my phone throughout my stay in the company and while I was driving back home too. Tomorrow, I will go to see our family doctor, as Mum and I discussed. I will call Mum now when I finally return upstairs to my bedroom after dinner," I said."You shouldn't keep your mother waiting, Thelma, as you know she worries so much about you. Anyway, let us start eating our dinner and bless the meal," Dad said to me. He sounded more calm and friendly, and I knew that it was solely because he wanted me to marry his friend's son.I blessed the meal, and soon we started eating our dinner silently.After my dinner session with my elder brother and my father ended, I stood up from the chair I had been sitting on, avoiding Steven's gaze, and I finally went back upstairs to my bedroom."Wow, that was so close..." I gasped in relief as I walked into my bedroom. Steven had glared at me with a threatening look, as if to say to take off the towel.I quickly

**Thelma.**I stepped out of the elevator and walked toward Lady Elena's office. Most of the staff were busy clicking on their computers, and I felt a little relieved that the second floor wasn't as noisy as the first.Soon, I was standing in front of Lady Elena's office, waiting for her to finish with the man she was attending to. Finally, she waved to me to come inside.I told her that I wasn't yet assigned to any department in their company, and her response was, "The boss hasn't yet confirmed you to work with us. So you have to wait for the boss to arrive first, as our boss's assistant cannot attend to you today.""Why? I mean, must Boss Mavin be the one to attend to me?" I asked, as I clearly didn't want to meet Mavin again."Yes, because you met with him yesterday. What happened between the two of you? There are rumors that you spent almost four to five hours in Boss Mavin's office. Did he do anything out of the ordinary with you?" Lady Elena asked me, and my cheeks immediately f

**Mavin.**"Mavin! What do you mean by 'what's there'? Didn't you know that this could ruin us? And worse, isn't she the same lady that Adam brought here to you the previous day?"I smiled as I finally threw all the magazines into the trash bin in my room. I stared back at my grandfather and spoke, "She's the one, Grandpa. You caused this; you're the one who ordered Adam to bring a woman to me. If Adam hadn't brought her to me, then there's no way I would have known her and become fascinated by her.""You need to do away with her, Mavin, as her father won't allow you to marry his daughter. Once her father finds out about this, you will never get to see her again.""Why, Grandpa? I don't get it. Isn't it just business rivalry between us? I will go and see her family and let them know that I love their daughter and that I want to marry her," I said. I saw Grandpa looking at me in shock, and he shook his head before turning to exit my bedroom."Grandpa! Grandpa! You have always wanted me

**Mavin.**My father angrily looked at me before shifting his gaze back to his father, asking, "Are you asking me to leave, Dad? Fine, what about the company? You can't just continue to lock it up!""Go back home, Luke, and wait until I'm ready to open the company, or better still, look for something else to do," Grandpa Charlie replied. My father glared at me once more as I stood there waiting for him to leave. Finally, he turned and exited my living room silently while I looked back at my grandfather, who was now drinking the herbal tea that Angela had served him.I sighed and asked, "Grandpa, what about the company? I already agreed to marry now, so why not give it to Dad? That way, he can stop hating on me. I don't really need the company, as I’m self-made.""I know, Mavin, but you see, Luke is my son. Before you were born, he had his own life. Don't listen to him; he's just angry that I accepted you and took you away from him. He knows I can't give him my company, so don’t pay att

Mavin, I walked into my office and settled into my executive office chair, thinking back to what Thelma and I had done the day before. I tried to push those thoughts aside, but I couldn't shake the desire to see her again. Now, I regretted my actions. As I sat down and booted up my computer, I reached for the phone to check with Henry if he had cleared all the news reports about me. When Henry confirmed it, I hung up and turned my attention to the top clients I needed to meet that day. I was aware that the news might have reached Thelma's father, Mr. Conrad Sabastain, especially since we received the business magazine early in the morning. It seemed likely that the news had spread, and other companies were eager to climb the rankings to become top partners in City B. I didn't feel the need to show off to climb the ladder; I believed in working diligently but not excessively. The attention from our fans, along with the international recognition, had driven both Steven and me to succ

Thelma, Mrs. Elena Brown informed me that her boss had arrived and instructed me to proceed to the fourth floor to see Mavin. I was nervous to see him as I had been waiting since morning. I know I should have left the company, but I still wanted to speak to him. I intended to tell him face-to-face that we couldn't date and that we should forget about the possibility of being together. I was really nervous when he started asking me questions about why I returned to work at his company. I felt like I was being interviewed all over again. Feeling scared, I tried to leave when he stood up from his seat. He caught me before I could reach the door and turned me around to face him. "Why are you running away when I haven't finished my questions?" Mavin asked, his white eyes adding to my fear. I mentioned that my father had warned me to keep my distance from him. Mavin then asked if I had ever asked my father why he said that. "No, he just warned me to stay away from you," I replied, no

Steven. Father finally dismissed his guests as they left our living room, and he finally walked up to meet me as I stood beside the dining table, checking the business news gossip magazine that I had gathered from the center table. "Steven, what happened?" Father asked me, as I squinted my eyes and read through the news written on the front pages of the gossip magazine cover. "Steven..." "Father, you know that Thelma told us lies last night," I said calmly, not wanting my father to faint. I still needed some personal explanation from him and to know why he hated LX Groups so much, to the extent that the hatred had to be transferred to MW Group as well. "About what, Steven? And why did you chase your younger sister into the house like that?" Father continued to ask me as he walked past me and sat down in the first dining seat. "Do you know that Thelma actually met with Mavin yesterday in his office, and the worst report that I am seeing trending online now is that she had an affai

Thelma's Point of View: I knew that my father and Steven would find out the truth about what had happened. I was nervous and couldn't meet their gazes. Father was angry, and he had every right to be. I didn't say anything, and Father left while Steven waited. "Thelma, what happened? You need to calm down and explain to me," Steven spoke in an alluring voice. "There's nothing to explain. Mavin is the man I met with last weekend," I said tearfully, and Steven gasped, "What?" "Could you repeat that?" Steven urged me to speak. "You mean you actually met with Mavin White the previous week? Thelma! How could you?" Steven paced about, and I finally looked up at him. "I didn't know he was Mavin White," I replied between sobs. Steven turned to look back at me, glared at me, and asked, "Then how do you explain all these new marks on your neck?" "I don't know. We just happened to do it again. I think Mavin likes me, but he looks angry about something," I said. "Shut up, Thelma! You're

[Thelma's POV:]I stared back at the huge white door in front of me, afraid of the masculine figure that wanted to step out.Knowing that Sir Adam had told me to go into the room, I was scared and stood nervously in my long red gown.I could hear the scattering of something inside the room, and I was seriously afraid, feeling the need to pee in my pants.Before I knew it, I was taking some steps backward, as I could hear the sound of the imposing footsteps approaching the door.
