BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 37: BEAUTIFUL SCARS
Talon’s P.O.VI woke up with a throbbing headache and groaned. I couldn't remember what had happened the previous night, but the sight of me curled up in Naya's hand was a surprise. I moved, and she woke up immediately. The atmosphere between us was tense. Naya broke the tension when she got up and fetched some aspirin for me. I watched her show me nothing but niceness despite all my actions towards her. I felt bad for the way I had been treating her.“Naya,” I said. “You need to get some rest! I can take it from here.”“Are you sure you can handle things?”“Yeah, sure. You’re the one who just got out of the hospital. I just had some bottles last night. I’m totally fine now. Just get on the bed and have some rest. You can sleep if you want to,” I said.She mounted on the bed as she rested her head on the pillow. Naya’s facial expression revealed how shocked she was. She watched every step I made. She was probably surprised. She had never seen me act that nice to her. All I ever did

Talon’s P.O.VMy phone rang and when I checked who the caller was, it was my dad. I carefully removed Naya from my arms and left her on the bed. I didn’t want to wake her up, so I left the room.“Good day, dad,” I said when I picked the call.“Good day. How’s Naya?”“She’s fine.”“Good to know!”“Yeah.”“When are y’all coming home?"“Dad, we wouldn’t be coming home anytime soon.”“Why?”“Naya’s injuries are severe. She still needs time to heal. So, we wouldn’t be coming home until two weeks.”“Alright, son. Make sure to take care of your wife. Don’t let her out of your sight.”“I’d take good care of her, dad.”“Alright. Take care. Bye!”“Bye!”I returned back to the room to stay back with Naya. But she wasn’t there. I was scared, but the moment I heard the sound of the shower from the bathroom, I felt relieved. I let out a sigh. I didn’t know what was wrong with me, but I knew there was something. I was feeling something for her, something I had never felt for any other woman. I wa

Talon’s P.O.VEverything was happening too fast. There was nothing in particular I could think about that was going on. But, we had to leave Maldives. We really had to. It wasn’t safe. Naya and I got out from the room and moved down to the reception. The hotel was in chaos. Everyone was trying to run to safety. But no one had the slightest idea of what was happening and the safest place they could run to. I called the chauffeur that had been driving me and Naya throughout our stay in the Maldives.“Get into our room and bring our properties down,” I said to one of the porters in the hotel. He rushed to the room to get our things down. We felt more secured outside. Security was all over the place, trying to calm people down. But, they knew better than to calm me down. I had made up my mind to leave the Maldives even if it was late at night, and nothing was going to stop me.Naya and I wer

Nelson’s P.O.VTalon and his so-called wife returned home. Our dad had not had a good rest since we heard about what happened to Talon’s wife. Seeing the duo back in the house relieved my dad from the heavy burden that he had coincidentally laid on himself.“Welcome, power couple. We’re so glad that y’all got back home unharmed,” he said. “Thank you, dad. It’s so good to be finally home,” Talon said.Power couple? Only if my dad knew who the duo really was, he wouldn’t be calling them that. My instincts never lied to me. I didn’t believe Talon and Naya’s relationship was real. There was something about it, something I was trying so hard to discover. I saw how happy he was. He couldn't stop smiling at them. He even forgot that my family and I existed. Talon and his wife was the star in the crowd. I wished that Naya had died. She didn’t deserve to live, especially since she

Naya’s P.O.VTalon’s reaction towards Nelson made me think that I was finally out of the hot seat that Nelson placed me on. But, I was wrong. Talon took me upstairs to the room. His facial reaction broke me. He had that look that showed he was going to blow up. He was mad, not just at Nelson but also at me.“What is wrong with you?” he asked me in a cold tone.“I don’t get you,” I said calmly.“How would you get me? You never get me. You just go around doing whatever pleases you. You don’t listen to me!” he yelled.“What have I done wrong?”“Everything!” he shouted. “Why do you always have to be so stupid?”“You’ve been saying mean words to me, but I still don’t get what I did wrong.”“Really?” he said. I nodded in agreement.“We only just got here yesterday, yet you think you could just start talking to Nelson. I don’t wanna see you getting into any conversation with him.”“You didn’t even ask about how it happened.”“I don’t care! Just stay out of the way of my brother. Don’t try ge
Last Updated : 2023-03-26BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 42: FIX THINGS
Naya’s P.O.VTalon had every right to be mad at me for not telling him who Kael really was. I was wrong for keeping it away from him. I had to fix things myself. I got into such a messy situation and only I could really bring myself out of it. So I thought. Meeting Kael for a heart to heart talk was totally out of the options I had to fix things. I didn’t want to set my eyes on him, ever. Talon was at the office. He was supposed to have a meeting at work. I wanted to speak to him, but I lacked the courage to. I didn’t want us to go into our usual sad mood. It was as if speaking to him was a readiness to argue, shout or cry. I was prepared to leave the building and cancel my plans of talking to Talon.**********Talon’s P.O.VA heavy sound came from no particular direction in my office building. I tried to find out where the noise had come from, but I couldn’t. The whole building was shaking like it was going to fall. The tension in the building rose above cloud 9. Everyone ran for th

Talon’s P.O.VI managed to open my eyes even though I found it difficult. My head was hurting badly. The little girl that I was trying to save was on the floor, unconscious. She was in my arms. I felt a liquid-like substance dripping from my head. I touched my head to see what it was. My head was bleeding profusely. With all the power I had left in me, I pushed some of the rocks that were hindering me and the little girl from escaping from the building. I succeeded in pushing the rocks away. The little child was in shock. I tried to pick her from the floor so we could leave the building. But, I was a little too late. One of the rocks fell on the poor child. Instantly, she was crushed into pieces. My heart was broken. I was too weak to cry, too weak to express what I was feeling. There wasn’t anyone to tell it to. I lost the child without even getting to know who her parents were.I was feeling dizzy and I needed to get out of the crushed building by all means. I pushed every other

Naya’s P.O.VIt took three days before Talon was able to finally open his eyes. I couldn’t contain my excitement. My silent prayers were finally answered. I wanted Talon back, and he really did come back to me. I was so happy that I hugged him tightly, not minding if he could still be in some form of pains. I just wanted to hold him close. My reactions made things absurd. I had concluded that Talon was going to snap at me, because it seemed like he didn’t want the hug. I pulled away from him.Surprisingly, Talon pulled me closer to him, and back into his arms. He held my face and caressed it gently. He made me look directly into his eyes. When I did, he kissed me passionately. I kissed him back, more passionately. Just then, the door swung open. Nelson walked in on us, majestically.“How nice... You’re finally awake,” he said to Talon.He dipped his hands into his pocket and brought out his phone. He called Eric and then his wife. He told them Talon was awake. I could hear Eric’s v

Life was a lot better with her around. I could’ve never imagined that things would be subtle between us. Judging by the way we met, I had never thought that we would ever be together, forever. I was happy that we finally got to end up together after everything that had happened in the past. The villains in our lives were all eliminated, and we did it all because we stood by each other.

BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 116: SECURED
Talon's POVLife was a lot better without Nelson around. For the first time, Naya and I felt secured. It felt like there were no villains in our lives anymore. Five months after the whole drama with Nelson, I realized that we had moved on. The house was bubbling with excitement. My dad was no longer in so much shock.

BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 115: THE COURT HEARING
Talon’s POVThe next day, I woke up early to make sure I was ready for the court hearing. I knew it was going to be a difficult day, but I was determined to see it through. Naya was feeling better after a good night's sleep, but she was still nervous about what was to come.As we drove to the courthouse, I could feel the tension in the air. Naya was clutching my hand tightly, her eyes darting around nervously. I tried to reassure her as best I could, telling her that everything was going to be okay.When we arrived at the courthouse, we were ushered into a small room where we waited for the hearing to begin. The minutes ticked by slowly, and I could feel Naya getting more and more anxious.Finally, the judge entered the room, and the hearing began. Nelson was brought in, looking sullen and defeated. He had already been found guilty of attempted murder on a pregnant woman, and we were there to hear his sentence.The judge wasted no time in handing down his decision. "Nelson, based on t
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 114: SO MUCH HATE
Naya’s POVI couldn't believe what had just happened. One moment, we were all sitting at the diner, laughing and chatting away, and the next, Nelson tried to convince my personal maid to poison me. What did I ever do to him? Why did he have to hate me so much? Sometimes, people just die without knowing that they are falling for a trap. The trap in my case was the one that Nelson set for me. But, I was lucky that the maid didn’t let it happen. Soon enough, Talon called Eric and he was in the house in no time. Eric slapped Nelson across the face when Talon narrated everything to him. The sound of the slap echoed through the room, and everyone fell silent. I was in shock, my eyes wide as I stared at Eric. Eric didn't say anything, just stood there with his jaw clenched. Nelson, on the other hand, looked stunned. He put a hand to his cheek, which was now red and stinging.Talon immediately went into action, trying to calm me down. "Hey, it's okay," he said, putting a hand on my shoulder.
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 113: POISONED
Talon's POVThe maid who was supposed to bring extra food for Naya was delaying and I wasn’t finding it funny. Why was she taking so much time? Worse still, Nelson was in the kitchen with her. I didn’t want to think that Nelson was up to something bad. I didn’t think that way because I believed that he wouldn’t want to harm me in my own house. But, as time went on, Naya grew more and more impatient, and I could no longer try to calm her down. She just needed to be given food. She couldn't control the anger she was feeling inside. "Where is the maid? I'm starving. It's been an hour since she said she would bring me food,” Naya said in frustration.I got up from the couch and walked towards the dining room, curious to see what was going on. As I tried to enterthe kitchen, I saw the maid standing nervously by the door. She had a tray of food in her hands, but she seemed reluctant to bring it to Naya."Naya, the maid is here with your food," I said, trying to ease the tension in the ro
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 112: NELSON'S PLOT
Talon's POVNaya apologized for leaving like that and told me everything. My heart swelled with relief and happiness as she poured out her heart to me. I was worried sick about her. But now, she was finally back in my arms and telling me everything that had happened. As I listened to her story, I couldn't help but worry if she was really fine. She seemed so vulnerable and fragile, and the thought of anything happening to her tore at my heartstrings. Even if she assured me that she was doing just fine, I couldn't completely believe her. The next day, I decided to do something special for Naya. I was going to get her an engagement ring, and marry her again without her knowledge. I knew it was a little unconventional, but I wanted to show her how much I loved her and how committed I was to our relationship. Naya’s POVWe watched a movie together. After the movie, when we were getting ready for bed, Talon finally spoke up. "I'm sorry I got so angry earlier," he said, looking at me. "I
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 111: THE CONTRACT
Naya's POVAfter Talon calmed down, I explained everything to him about my dinner with Nelson. I told him that we had talked about the property dispute and that Nelson had agreed to end the fight between them. But Talon didn't trust Nelson at all and assumed that he was up to something.I tried to reassure Talon that he had nothing to worry about and that everything would be fine. I even joked that he should make me something to eat, which made him laugh. But despite his laughter, I could tell that he was still feeling uneasy about the situation.As Talon went into the kitchen to make me something to eat, I settled down to watch a movie. But my relaxation was short-lived when I received a call from work. I was needed at the office immediately to meet with a very famous celebrity who was interested in signing a contract with my modeling design company.I rushed out of the house without telling Talon, hoping to make it to the office on time. But the meeting took longer than expected, an
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 110: DINNER TALK
Naya's POVI met Nelson in a restaurant for dinner, hoping to catch up on lost time and rebuild our friendship. But the conversation took a strange turn, and before I knew it, we were discussing Talon and his ongoing property dispute with his brother.When Nelson arrived, I could see the guilt in his eyes. He knew that he had let his down, and he didn't know how to make things right. That was my own version of the look I saw on his face. I asked him why he hadn't been there for me when I needed him the most, and he told me that he was afraid of making things worse. I was taken aback by his response. I had never thought that Nelson was the kind of person who would be afraid of confronting his problems head-on. But I could see that he was genuinely sorry for his behavior, and I decided to forgive him.I couldn't help but feel frustrated and confused about why Talon was still fighting with his brother, even though he had already won the property. It seemed like a petty and unnecessary c
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 109: I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU
Talon's POVI rushed Naya to the hospital. She had passed out due to stress, and I was extremely worried about her. I couldn't get the picture of her smiling towards me before she passed out, out of my head. I wanted her to be okay and free from any form of stress. I loved her and she was carrying my child. I had every reason to protect her. The hospital staff did their best to reassure me that she would be fine, but I couldn't shake off the feeling of helplessness that I felt at that moment. Deep down, I wanted to shake the feeling off my head. I wanted to be normal and hope for the best. But, my fears piled up. I didn’t want anything bad to happen to the woman I loved or my baby. They both had a special place in my heart, and I was not ready to replace them. I knew at some point that I had to be strong for Naya.When Naya finally woke up, I knew that it was time for us to have a heart-to-heart conversation. I gently encouraged her to open up to me and tell me what was on her mind.
