''Why is my house crowded''? Jules and Billina had just reached on the front porch of the house and saw the drunk voice of brian.
He saw completely out of his sense.
Jules tightened the grip of Billina's hand and she pulled her closer.
''Oh there's my daughter, ' 'he made a smiling face as he bent down to reach her height.
The eight-year-old was quiet, just staring at her careless father.
"Take the ambulance... we are right behind you," Jules ordered to the doctors and they went away...
Now, it was only the Bernands.
"Brian, for the love of God, act mature. Your wife is fighting for her life," Jules said in fidgety.
"Mother... you never asked for my opinion in this marriage. I don't even like her and she is not my wife," Brian said and took a step forward to walk in the house.
"If she is not your wife then I am not your mother and Billina is not your daughter," the words of Jules made him crippled and both Jules and Billina
"Billina?" when Ashton put a hand on her shoulder, she let out a sudden gasp.Turning around she saw he was there with a straight face.Billina's forehead was full of sweat and tears in her eyes.She was frightened. This was the first time he had seen the fierce lady so weak."A-Ashton. What happened to my grandmother?" she was standing in front of a glass window, the same scene as before. The only difference was it was Jules instead of her mother.That time she was just a kid unable to do anything but this time she will take the matter in her hands."Billina, she is fine. the doctors are examining her," Ashton tried to assure her but she was the BB herself."They will not do anything..." she murmured and dialled a number on her phone.After two rings the person picked the phone."Hello, Capo. Billina Bernand here. I am sending helicopters. Find me some good doctors, grandma is in hospital," she ordered."Who is Capo? "Asht
"Patricia? Oh my God! Patricia, is that you?" he let out an unbelievable chuckle and spoke in astonishment."Yes... what are you doing here?" she asked in a pleasant tone.Then both of them hugged each other. The girl was a brunette, beautiful and smart,the gorgeous freckles on her white face.And a doctor? who she might be?Billina stared her top to toe, she then realised what she was here for."Uhm, doctor my grandmother is inside. Please go and check her first..." Billina spoke and she nodded.It was a team of doctors called from Germany.They went inside the room where Jules was laying."Ms Bernand..." there came an Italian male voice, a man, dressed in olive green jogger pants with a black t-shirt, his white subtle and tan skin made him look like before, his younger days.He still has the perfect muscular body."Capo..." Billina walked to him for a hug."You know grandma had an attack..." she spoke wh
"Yes, my grandmother is not dead," rage in her tone, she spoke with a disgusted face.Ashton has been always there for her... may it be controlling her anger, advising her, helping her with Bridgette."Bridgette? Bridgette? Where is Bridgette, Capo?" Billina all of a sudden remembered her daughter and walked to the side with the bodyguard."Senor, I don't think you are allowed here. We really appreciated your concern but you must go from here, "Ashton spoke to the little man politely."Okay..." he nodded while Ashton asked, "Also, who told you about the death of Mrs Jules Bernand? Who is spreading the rumours?""I got to know it from the press," replied Senor and Billina asked, "The press?""Yes, madam. The press is spreading the fake news," Capo said."Ashton wear your blazer and follow me, "said the billionaire beauty and took the blazer from Capo.After both of them adjusted their clothing, they walked out of the hospital and was st
"Ms Bernand... she's ready to go," the soft tone of Patricia interrupted their hospital romance.And this girl comes between them, every time."Ashton..." Billina pulled herself up and spoke as he gave a nod.From the back gate of the hospital, four powerful SUV's along with two large ambulances, they sneaked out of the hospital very carefully.It was midnight when they reached to the penthouse, Billina and Ashton were in the same car while Capo was in the other with the bodyguards, two SUV's were full of bodyguards and the ambulances filled with the doctors and the nurses along with Jules Bernand.They reached to the location and the penthouse was on the 90th floor, Chicago's luxurious apartment and it was Billina's private place.All of them except Billina and Capo were so amazed to see the place. It was like they came in a five-star luxury hotel.Everything was so organized yet elegant.There were sixteen bedrooms along with 12baths
"Help! Help! Is anybody out there?" Besora came running, two bodyguards were standing in the front gate.She walked to them when they noticed the girl was pleading for help."May we help you?" one of the bodyguards asked."Hello, sir. Could you please help me. My grandfather... he is having an attack and our car stopped in the middle of the road. I was taking him to the hospital. My phone has also died. Please can you help me..." she with a crying and shaky tone said to the bodyguards."Where is your grandfather?" one of the bodyguards asked."He is in the car..." replied Bessie.She was wearing a cap and a hoodie and most of her face weren't visible.And it was dark so it was in her favour too."We are sorry but we are in duty... cannot leave the gate," said the bodyguard."It's an emergency... otherwise I would have never asked you. There's nobody to help us at this time of the hour," pleaded Bessie."Alright, we wi
"What? A thief? How?" Billina with scorn on her face asked and Ashton replied, "Yes, Billina but the strangest thing is... he haven't stolen anything.""He or she?" Capo walked in showing a bracelet to the couple.Billina and Ashton were in the bar, discussing when Capo came with some information.It was six in the morning, all of them were sleeping in the penthouse. Just the three of them were up."Give it to me..." Billina took the bracelet from Capo and examined it thoroughly."Was it a girl?" Ashton asked as he took a look at the bracelet.The letter 'B' was written on it... and it was diamond crafted.Billina had seen it somewhere but she couldn't remember it."Whatever was behind it must be put to jail. I don't know Capo bring him or her to me," she clenched the bracelet in her hand and ordered."I don't think it's a girl. Maybe the boyfriend dropped his girlfriend's bracelet," Ashton spoke when Billina and Capo changed imp
"Woah! that was..." Patricia was surprised when Billina interrupted her by saying, "Unexpected? We greet each other daily like this..." she smiled."I was gonna say... intense..." Patricia replied when Billina spoke, "That's what lovers do. Insane lovers do intense things, right baby?" Ashton was confused.What was going on there?"Come on, love. We have to go shopping," she took his hand and made him stand up."But he's not done with his breakfast," Patricia spoke when Billina replied, "We are going out to have breakfast.""We? I thought you were done with breakfast...' Ashton whispered in a low voice when she replied, "Yes, I have. Now walk..."Without leaving his hand she kept on walking till they reached the elevator.When they stepped inside the elevator and Billina pressed the underground button, she noticed Ashton's judgy eyes on her."Oh, don't give me that look..." she scoffed.Another second and he presse
"Is Mr George not here?" he asked politely and she responded by saying, "Oh, he's coming.""Well, no worries. Let me escort you to the party, my lady," he, like a gentleman... like a small gentleman asked her to keep her hand at his arms and walk like a couple.But she was so tall she just put her hand at his arms and they started walking and walked a few steps when Billina was about to fell but managed her steps.She withdrew her hands and spoke, "It's alright, Senor. Thank you.""Okay..." he grew a smirk on his evil face."What do you mean you can't sort it on your own? "Ashton was sitting in the car and talking on his phone, his face filled in scorn."You don't say it. Handle the matter. It's not that hard... What?" with that he declined the line and asked the driver to stop the car.He took a deep breath with his eyes closed and dialled a number on his phone."Hello? I need the jet ready..." he then cut the line and dialled another
