Billionaire Heiress by default Chapter 101| Reality hits
Olivia’s POV:“Um, where were we?” I smile shyly, knowing what he did and I can’t deny it anymore and I stare at the long table instead, aware of eyes eating into me now, and once again, that overly heavy uneasiness comes over me. I jump Brandon touches my shoulder to pull my attention to him.“Liv, it’s time they know what’s going on between us. If there’s anyone we can trust, it’s them. There’s no point in hiding what’s in plain sight. After that kiss, I’m sure they don’t need explaning.” He jokes in afterthought. That soft, subtle hint of a smile, his voice husky and affectionate, so much depth and meaning in so few words. The way his pale eyes bore into mine as he says it sets my nerves tingling and heart hammering in my chest in a gooey, lovesick weirdo way that only adds to the blush spreading across my cheekbones.“Men, you know what? It’s lunch time. Let’s give them some privacy. At one point, we've all been there.” One of them shifts from his perch, hearing the change in Bran

Olivia’s POV:I fucking believed him when he said he loved me. Even when I told myself I didn’t … this is the proof that I did. This pain, this slicing my soul into tiny shards of sharp glass. The splintering of a heart that never fully recovered from the first time.“Your f*cking what, Brandon?” I hiss at him again, gritting my teeth to try to control the spiraling emotions I cannot contain. The hysteria of a crazy lady growing more enormous than I can manage and ripping through my skull at a rate of knots. This is bigger than anything I have ever felt in my life, second to hearing my entire family planning to murder me and I wonder if this is how betrayal feels when it’s someone you love. Unleashing the crazy in me as jealousy devours my soul and turns my heart to stone. It cuts deeper than anything he did before; because this time, I stupidly dared to hope and believe. He ripped the rug out from under me.Brandon stays fixed and motionless, eyes on his driver and shakes his head s

The driver rushed to the waiting black car fifty feet away from the hotel. The window rolled down and Alice handed him a thick envelope. “Well? How did it go?”“Miss Olivia went ballistics. I think my job is compromised, Miss. Mr. Pembroke didn’t look so happy.” He explained, eyes scanning the place if he’s being watched.Alice smiled. “Don’t worry. I can get you another job with better pay. For now, stay and watch and keep me updated. Go now, that’d be all. You have my number. Call me if you hear anything.”He turned to leave but paused, as if remembering something. “Miss, the employees are talking. Mr. Pembroke and Miss Olivia made it official a while ago. Everyone knows they’re dating.”Her face twitched. Not only did he chose to hurt her many times over Olivia but now he’s telling the world they’re serious. If it was a part of their plan, she wouldn’t care—but it’s not. Brandon has really caught real feelings for Olivia and he’s doing what he didn’t even do for her while they were

Olivia’s POV:That signal of anger from him pulls a sarcastic smile out of me. Good at pretending, hiding the fact I’m quaking in my shoes.“Don’t be shy. I will fire you for lying, so it’s better to get it off your chest. All relationships need trust, don’t they?” I turn and throw a very pointed look at him, drilling that point into his face with a blue-eyed gaze that could cut glass.His face twitches as he suppresses the explosive temper growing inside of him and loses what control he has of his calm demeanor for a second. Orlie once again keeps a tight rein on him. I’m humiliating him in front of everyone as he did to me. I’m the one in control right now. See how he likes it.“Which one of you was out with him last night?” I add as an afterthought, and there’s a puzzled look around from many heads and nervous chatter as they whisper accusations. “Come on, anyone?!” I point out coldly.“Miss, no one was with Mr. Pembroke last night, we are all accounted for here.” She tries in her

Olivia’s POV:I stand for the longest time in that area of the lower floor, knowing I’m delaying the inevitable. He’s out there, probably in my office, barging around like a crazed panther and looking to take it out on the person who publicly disobeyed and humiliated him. I can almost visualize him in all his vicious glory. Caged, wild and ferocious while Orlie try to contain the eruption.We were to be a secret … He made it impossible a while ago and I topped that now.I feel like I can’t breathe, lungs constricted and wrapped in chains. My body is heavy, running cold with the profound acceptance that this will only end badly for me, and I can’t stop shivering. I’m so jittery. Avoiding him is delaying what I deserve but facing him is a fate worse than death. Harvey was right! Harvey was right!I need air; I need space; I need solitude. My head is spinning a million miles an hour, and the pain from his ‘date’ revelation is numbing out as logic and sense filter through to give me a mas

Olivia’s POV:I wander a little further onto the cracked concrete pavement and walk in small circles for a while, hidden from view by the tall half-standing wall that used to be some sort of barrier. It’s high enough to act as a shade for me. I pace absentmindedly to try to calm my erratic swishing insides and breathless angst until the air penetrates my clothes and cools me down to a mild shiver. One eye on the group of men for no real reason and satisfied they haven’t acknowledged me over here at all.It’s not overly freezing today, and my dress is made of wool, so it’s warm enough not to go in for a jacket. I keep moving until I’m around fifteen feet from them, gazing out into the street and the traffic coming and going at the far end of the long lane ahead. The hotel nestles in a side alley not far from the main road, so the immediate area in front of me is car-free even though it's noisy out here. It can be peaceful if you walk far enough from milling security groups.I stare up

Brandon’s POV:“Where are you, Olivia? I told you to stay. Damn, how stubborn can she be?” I asked myself out loud, pacing her office for the nth time.“Relax, for all we know, she’s here and there’s nothing to worry about, sir.” Orlie tried to calm me but I can’t help myself.I’ve given her strict orders not to go anywhere alone. My guts tell me that Alice was just biding her time and she’s not really walking away even if I bribed her with money. She’s better than that, cunning and dangerous all rolled into one. My phone is in my hand and I’ve dialed her number so many times and sent her text messages that went from pleading to threatening if she didn’t show up any moment from now.The door knob to her office moved and I braced myself. But it wasn’t her. It was Harvey and the moment the lawyer laid his eyes on me----he was instantly enraged. He scanned the office before returning his gaze on me.“You…” he seethed. “Where is Olivia?”I shrugged. “That makes the two of us. I can’t find

Olivia’s POV:These are not from the hotel’s security. They might be the men Brandon warned me about, I just gave them all of me, with my stupidity. God knows how long they have been hanging at a distance watching the comings and goings in case they got a chance at picking me off. It’s horrifying to imagine they may have been out here this whole time, waiting for a time like this.I glance at him moving in, and the man from the car is now behind me, blocking my path. Eyes doing a quick scan of every avenue around me. I am aware of both, and my senses tell me how far away from actually touching them. I am more aware of the one behind me as it instils a higher fear factor, but my brain calms, and the part that works well in a crisis moves in to formulate an exit strategy. Adrenaline kicks in, and I do what I do best. I lift my feet and run like a bat out of hell crazy woman with no desire to die, to my right, down the alley.I used to be an athlete so I’m pretty swift in my departure. T

Billionaire Heiress by default Chapter 114| End
Olivia’s POV:I lift a little higher, pausing and looking away to his chest, letting his eyes scan all of me as he stands motionless, listening, watching, taking it in and analyzing me with that quick brain. I get nothing from him, even when he slides his gaze down over my naked breasts and curves and comes slowly back up to lock on mine with a serious look that penetrates my soul. The smile faded away, but he still has a joyous aura surrounding him. “I will never give up on you. If you want this, you will never get rid of me again. I swear. I’m in this for the long haul, Liv.” “Good. Now take your clothes off, get over here and make love to me. It’s about time we stopped fucking around and got down to the real business.” I smirk as I say it. Hardly a sweet romantic seduction, but one thing I have learned is that I need to find my backbone with him.I was made to deal with this arrogant man. I need to remember that when dealing with him. He then breaks into the most gorgeous ungua
Billionaire Heiress by default Chapter 113| Don't give up
Olivia’s POV:I like this apartment; it somehow seems like I have been here before even though I have never laid eyes on it. I love the open space and simple furnishings. Nothing overly showy or flashy, nothing fussy. Just enough to feel comfy and relaxed in a way that invites you to come in and lounge your cares away. It’s peaceful and feels like home, even though I’m a stranger within its walls.It’s no surprise I like it, though; one thing I found when making the club gorgeous was that Lexi and I have a similar taste in décor, and we gel well in terms of style. We can argue about most things, but we never argued over styling choices.I waste no time in sinking into the hot bath and letting my weary bones blend with the water, turning my limbs to fluid weightlessness. I exhale with relief at the comforting feel of hot liquid overtaking my skin as it submerges and slides over all the tiny marks and grazes, littering the surface, cleansing them of grime and blood. Stings and nips beco
Billionaire Heiress by default Chapter 112| Who are you?
Olivia’s POV: She smiles again, nothing but warmth in that wrinkled little face, and I wonder if she was an attempt at giving himself a stand-in mother. She has that maternal vibe, and I could see why he wouldn’t want the hassle of a live-in maid whom he has banged. He hates women trailing around after him when he’s done with them.He made himself what he lacked, and I can see why he never let me come here before. A cozy home he never lets on is his, a dog and a motherly maid. Like his small apartment, this place is somewhere he can be someone else, and it feeds a side of him that his mother never nurtured. “Of course.” I falter, covering my sheer lack of knowing what’s happening or even something as basic about him as not liking reheated food. It’s not something that ever came up, seeing as I don’t cook for him or have ever had to get food for him. A girlfriend should know these things, though. I want to know these things about him.After today I guess that’s a moot subject, and I
Billionaire Heiress by default Chapter 111| The last stand
Olivia's POV:Walking in the door, ushered by Orlie, we are all in complete silence. I don’t even take the time to acknowledge him. I have no words anyway. I'm disheveled, filthy, and broken inside as I’m led into a massive open plan penthouse apartment that I would never think of putting him in. A building in Upper Manhattan’s most luxurious area.“He owns this.” Orlie stated as if reading my mind.It’s warmer and homelier than the other one he took me to. There are substantial soft corner couches, side tables, and furniture for lounging and laying cups by your side, in front of vast windows spanning entire walls and showing New York at its finest in sweeping views. I feel like we are on top of the world as we are so high up in a vast modern yet comfy home. My eyes scan the roaring glass fire in the natural brick pillar standing imposingly in the middle of the room, giving no natural heat, so it’s a digital screen. It serves as a divider to the metal railed stairway behind it at the
Billionaire Heiress by default Chapter 10| Saving his heart
Olivia’s POV:Oh, God no.He twists my wrist painfully, causing me to release the shoe finally and its clatters to the ground with an anticlimactic little noise as it slides from his gaping wound. My only hope of fighting a man this size. He overpowers me cruelly, and all I can do is grasp at his legs to stop myself crying out with the pain he’s inflicting. He is going for a broken bone.And then, she’s there. Alice.“Well, look at you. Not so pretty in a disheveled state are you?”“Boss, we can play with her, right?” The other man insisted.“Not yet. I’m waiting for Harvey. He’s on his way here, say, fifteen minutes with the documents because Olivia here will transfer all her money to me. Did you know, it was our original plan, me and Brandon? Unfortunately, he fell in love with you----so the money comes first and then, I’ll take him back. And we live happily ever after because you are dead.”“You’re lying.”“Oh, wait until Harvey shows up. I sent him the photos and the record and ho
Billionaire Heiress by default Chapter 109| In the enemy lines
Brandon’s POV:I stopped just when Harvey was about to ride with us. An idea dawned on me. I know Alice. I know how she thinks. “Harvey, go back to your office. Alice will call you. She will want Olivia’s money in exchange for her life. I’m sure. Don’t let her know that you already know. I’ll open my GPS, you know what to do.”Harvey nodded. I thought he was going to be difficult. “Okay, be safe. Take care of her. I’ll take of things on my end.”I hope I know how Alice mind works. Or else.Olivia’s POV:The noise in the alley comes back down towards me, echoing eerily, and I completely freeze, pushing my attention fully on Brandon to zone out the fear. He is quiet, but I can hear noises on his end as I clutch it to my ear. I think he is checking his screen for my location and leaving the call open, but he isn’t listening. I can hear voices in the background, Orlie and the other men as he tells them which turn to take. I can hear so much of where he is and the fact they are on the mov
