Chapter 97

BIANCA’S POV

Before I prepared myself to leave, I spent almost an hour searching my room for any hidden camera or microphone. I was positive Richard wasn’t the one who shot that video, but I needed to do that just to be on the safer side.

I searched everywhere I could lay my eyes and hands-on, on but ended up finding nothing. That relieved me a bit. At least I knew I hadn’t been recorded in secret. Something prompted me and I ended up searching Richard’s room too. Not finding anything suspicious, I arranged his things back so he wouldn’t notice someone had been in his room.

In the course of that, I took some, no, not some, all. I took all of his clothes and sniffled them in deeply one after the other as though doing so would grant me everlasting life. I knew doing that would waste a lot of time, but I just had to do it. I couldn’t resist the urge. With everything that had been happening, I had almost forgotten how that sweet soothing scent of clean soap and pine smelt an

    Chapter 98BIANCA’S POV“What?...” My lips hung open as I stared at Gideon in disbelief, trying to wrap my head around what he just said.He kept nodding lowly as if he understood how I felt, but couldn’t do anything about it.How does he expect me not to go out while I’m already dressed? I believe his words on reporters being hungry wolves. I have seen how they attack famous people on television, but Richard. I needed to go find him and let him know about this video asap.“But…but I need to go find Richard,” I said insistently. “I have something very urgent to show him…”“I’m very sorry Mrs. Bianca. But I can’t let you go out there…”“Isn’t there some secret passage in this place or maybe I could go out through the back… or better cover my face with a nose mask or sunglasses? No one will notice…” I was eager and willing to go the extra mile just to get out of this place and find Richard. I can’t stay locked up in here like a prisoner doing nothing when I knew his reputation was on

    Chapter 99BIANCA’S POV Immediately the door was opened, Richard rushed in almost like Gideon did several minutes ago as though he had been chased by someone, but not breathing as heavily as he did. He wore a black cap on his head, but it didn’t do much to hide his long and beautiful hair. He had sunglasses on his eyes and a stylish long coat that matched the colour of the cap and sunglasses. It seemed like he was trying to stay incognito, probably so reporters wouldn’t recognize him. Without giving him enough time to take it all off, I closed the space between us and thudded him with a hug that almost threw him off balance. “Thank goodness you’re back,” I said with a voice about to be thickened with tears as I wrapped my hands tightly around him, my head resting on his chest. The hug took him by surprise, so it quite a while before he could hold me back, but not as tightly as I did. “Yes,” he muttered and as though realization hit him, he started holding me tighter like I wanted

    Chapter 100BIANCA’S POVI didn’t understand why the sender had to delete the video. What will he lose or gain by doing that? Anyway, I didn’t have to worry about that because I saved the video the moment I finished playing it.Playing it, I showed it to Richard who was already a second away from dying of curiosity.“That’s your ex-girlfriend. Please tell me you aren’t responsible for that….tell me you didn’t do it…please…” Tears glistened in my eyes as I looked at him, pleading as though my life depended on it. All I wanted to hear was “Of course, I didn’t do it.” That’s all and I can breathe well, rest assured that bastard was wrong about him.The expression on Richard’s face as he looked at that video was one I had never seen before. His brows and lips were set in a tight tone and his eyes were a whole gamut of emotions - pain, anger, resentment, regret, empathy, fear, anxiety, tension. Maybe I made the wrong choice by showing him that video. Seeing him like that was making me r

    Chapter 101 BIANCA’S POV After Richard told me everything I needed to know about his past relationship with Ben and Heather, I was so stunned that I was speechless and unable to react for quite some time. I was shocked that Ben would hurt his best friend like that. Richard said they have been best friends for as long as he can remember. Richard's father was the Alpha of the city and Ben' s father the second in command. As a result, their parents used to be really close, which made their friendship even stronger. It was heart-wrenching to hear of such a betrayal between two friends who were once like brothers, especially when their families were so close. With the way things are now, I doubt their families even talk to each other. “B…” Richard’s voice echoed in my head as he called me several times. He took me by the shoulders and shook me a little, causing me to snap back to reality. “Are you okay?...” “Yes…” I muttered and rubbed the side of my head, realizing I had zoned out.

    Chapter 103 RICHARD’S POV I called two of my bodyguards because there was no way B and I would be going out there without protection. Fortunately, they were close, just in the hotel’s lobby. Father always insisted on me taking bodyguards wherever I went, but I wasn’t very keen on that. My privacy was paramount to me, and I could easily defend myself when the need arose. When I got downstairs, Gideon had already made sandwiches and lemonade for lunch and was setting the table for two. I admired how fast he worked; he was always efficient, and I appreciated that about him. The noise the soles of my shoes made on the marble floor caught his attention. He looked at me, his brows squishing as he was probably wondering why I was fully dressed. “Going somewhere, Boss?” He asked. “Yeah,” I answered, looking impatiently towards the direction of B’s room to see if she was coming, but there was no sign of her. What could be keeping her? She said she’d be fast if only I knew she might be the

    Chapter 104RICHARD’S POVAs we descended in the elevator, my stomach suddenly churned with unease as my mind raced with potential scenarios and questions that awaited me and B outside.Since my father made frantic efforts for Heather’s video not to circulate in the media and my schoolmates were forbidden from talking about it outside school, the news didn’t quite reach the general public, so I was spared that shame and humiliation.The last time I faced a crowd of reporters wasn’t long after I returned to the city. They were curious about why I’d been travelling so much. I didn’t reveal much; just said it was for luxurious vacations and building connections with other cities and nations in preparation to take over from my father when the time came, and left it at that.The story was forged well and I sounded very convincing so they ended up buying it. Since then, I haven’t disturbed me much. I knew how mind-bugging and malicious their questions could be. I just hope it won’t break B

She was shocked at the sight before her and I was pretty sure I could hear her heart beating faster in her chest.“We did our best, but they’re just too much to handle,” one of the hotel’s security men said as he grabbed the door handle to pull it open for us.The security men and my bodyguards quickly stepped out in front of us. They positioned themselves two steps below B and me on the entrance steps, forming a protective barrier around us.The scene in front of us was like something straight out of a nightmare.

    Chapter 174 RICHARD’S POV Approaching B’s family house, I saw B stepping out, but the moment she saw me, she ran back inside. My heart hurt from seeing how she was avoiding me. “B please wait. Hear me out first. I have something important to tell you. The pregnancy was fake…I know everything now…” I said as I rushed out of the car and chased after her. But I didn’t think she heard me as she quickly slammed the door shut down on getting inside. I banged against the door, screaming for her. Apologizing. Pouring my heart out and letting her know how much I loved and missed her. I didn’t care if I was constituting a nuisance or being absurd, I just wanted her forgiveness. I wanted her back. But it all fell on deaf ears. No one opened the door for me. I wondered if my dad had come like he promised. Maybe he hadn’t yet. I wondered if her parents were around. Surely, they won’t approve of my behaviour and I didn’t even know how to explain the whole situation to their understa

    Chapter 173 RICHARD'S POV By the time I made it back to the apartment, it was almost dusk. Heather’s parents had the heart to forgive her for lying to them. Despite all she did, they still loved her as their one and only daughter and were willing to take her back. After they left, my father noticed how troubled and unhappy I was, and I couldn’t help but tell him everything that happened. I needed someone to talk to. Someone who could understand and advise me. And right then, my father was the only one I could turn to. He advised me to be patient, to give B more time and not act rashly to avoid losing her completely. He also promised to go see her parents intercede on my behalf and convinced me to head back to the apartment and rest because I really needed it. As I was approaching my apartment from the elevator, I noticed the door was left ajar. I didn’t put too much thought into it because it was probably Gideon. I had seen him earlier that morning before stepping out.

    Chapter 172 RICHARD’S POV I wasn’t sure where B could have gone, but the only place that came to my mind was her family house. I just hoped she hadn’t gone to any other place. It’ll be hard finding her if she did. No matter what, I had to get her back. I want her back. Not only is she the love of my life, but she’s also carrying my unborn child. She will be the mother of my children. Rushing into the room, I hurriedly pulled out the drawer of the nightstand, searching for my car keys. I couldn’t remember where last I kept it but I think it should be in the drawer because I usually left it there. Instead of finding my car keys, I found something else. My brows drew in curiously as I took out the paperwork. Going through the contents, terrible regrets assailed me as I shook my head in agony. B was pregnant. All these while, she has been carrying my child but kept it from me. All these while, I have been hurting and treating her badly not knowing my seed was growing inside her.

    CHAPTER 171 RICHARD’S POV The news of Heather’s pregnancy hit me like a shockwave. I was so shocked I struggled to accept it. How did it happen? How am I the one responsible for it? As far as I knew, Heather and I hadn’t gotten into any intimate act since she returned. There must be a mistake somewhere. B was so shattered she couldn’t even look at me. But I wished she could just listen to what I had to say before jumping to any conclusions. This was all a misunderstanding. I knew nothing about it. I know I have been cold and mean towards her lately, but that was only because of the way she’d been acting towards Heather. I believe with time she’ll stop seeing Heather as a threat and apologize for her actions. I cared for Heather and promised to be by her side to make up for all those years I failed to protect her from Ben. But that doesn’t mean I’ll go as far as sleeping with her. I made it clear to her that I loved B and only B now. What Heather and I shared was all in the

Divorce him and move on….He lied about loving you….He never loved you….He only agreed to this marriage because his father wanted him to… you were only a second option, a plan B.Nina advised me not to give up on him yet. She said if he truly loved me then he’ll come for me. She also said I should threaten him on leaving the apartment and if he persisted, then I’ll make him choose between me and Heather. That was a good idea. The only way I could bring an end to this once and for all. It was either her or me. And I know Richard will choose wisely because deep down, he still loved me. That bitch was only putting a blindfold over his eyes, but it’s only a matter of time before I ta

That makes everything a lot better. I hope she never comes back. I hope she gets hit by a bus or truck or falls off a cliff and her body is never found. As it stands now, that will make things a lot better now.“Hey,” I smiled at Richard as I took a seat very close beside him. “What are you watching?”He looked at me with a smile before looking back at the TV.“I just turned on the TV and found the movie interesting,” he said. He grabbed the remote and pressed the information button to check the title and description. “It says ‘The Idea of You.’”“Ok,” I beamed a smi

She doesn’t know what she’s doing.”“She knows what she’s doing!” I blurted out, sobbing heavily. “She hates me and is out to destroy me. She's dangerous and the earlier you realize that, the better and safer it is for us. Who knows what she might do next and accuse me of?.... perhaps she could stab herself next and say that I did it. Maybe she could come back with bruises and cuts and broken bones and accuse me of hiring hitmen that did it to her…and you might just have to believe her…”I broke down in another outburst of tears, burying my face in my hands.

He had hurt me and wanted to do very bad things to me, but I couldn’t shake off the feeling that something wasn’t right. If possible I needed to find a way to question him about Heather. I needed him to tell me everything he knew about her. If they planned her rape story together to deceive Richard. But how do I do that? The last thing I want is to meet up with him after what he did to me. And if Richard found out I met with his greatest enemy, he’d be mad at me and think I was somehow involved with him. Little did he know that bitch sitting close to him was his greatest enemy. “I’m glad he’s finally getting what he deserved,” Richard said, still sounding overjoyed. “Can you imagine he asked to see me?...” But then he stopped halfway, realizing the look on my face. “What happened to your face?” He peered closer, his eyes squinting and b
