Billionaire's Cruel Temptation Chapter 26
Author’s POV“Why are you doing this to me?” Natalie shouted after pushing Cyrus away from herself. But her voice just came out weak. Her push was not strong enough to make him move away from her body but he still took a step away from her because of the tears that he saw pooling in her dull brown eyes. “Nat, I was just trying to hel…” she didn’t let him complete his sentence and cut him off by saying, “Don’t call me that”. “Don’t act like we are close” she shouted in frustration. “Why are you doing this to me, huh? Why are you showing this concern to me after what you did to me? Why are you acting like you care when you don’t?” she asked. She is still not feeling stable emotionally. She doesn’t even know what she is saying right now. “Natalie please, calm down. You shouldn’t be taking stress right now. Doctor said you have to give rest to both your body and also your mind” Cyrus said worried. He is concerned that she will get sick again due to all this stress. “As if you car

Natalie’s POVI came out of the bathroom after taking a hot water bath to soothe my aching body. I made my way towards the bed. I was walking while taking the support of the wall. Because I am still feeling weak and lightheaded.I reached the bed with the help of wall and sat down on it while drying my wet hairs with towel.The door of the room opened and I turned my head in that direction to find Cyrus standing at the door frame staring at me.The memories of what happened earlier came to my mind and my heartbeat quickened.Flashback “And I will make that day come at any cost” he said with confidence.“I will never open my heart for you Cyrus, ever” I said with the same determination.“We will see” he said with a smile and I felt my heart skip a beat.‘You need to keep your heart in control Natalie. Or else it’s going to betray you’ I told myself.He kept staring up at my face without saying anything and the atmosphere in the room turned intense.I instantly looked away

Cyrus’ POVI climbed out of my car and buttoned up my suit jacket before resuming to walk towards the main door of my company. Everyone inside greeted me when their eyes fell on me and I acknowledged them with a nod of my head.I entered inside my private elevator and William followed behind me. He pressed the button for the sixty sixth floor where my office is and came to stand beside me.“So Kings have postponed the meeting for a month from now on. What is the reason, did they explain?” I asked him.They better have good reason to postpone this important meeting.“We heard that Mr. King’s mother passed away last night. It was due to stomach cancer” William informed and I felt sad for him.The pain of losing your mom is something I am quite familiar with. “Okay, postpone the meeting. And let them decide the schedule for next meeting” I told him.We don’t know if he will be able to get back to work within a month or not. That is why I will let them decide the schedule for th

Author’s POV“What the hell do you think you are doing Mr. Knight?” his voice boomed.Natalie’s eyes widened and her heart filled with panic when she saw Smith standing in front of her eyes. Everything that this man said to her in front of the main door of Cyrus’ hotel started repeating in her mind and she gulped in fear.Her hold on Cyrus’ hand tightened and instinctively she moved a little behind her husband’s body as if wanting to hide away from the dirty eyes of that man.Cyrus noticed her reaction upon seeing this bastard Smith and he knew that there was something more to the story that he was not aware about.“Oh so this bitch is also present here. Are you doing this to me because of her?” Smith said while pointing towards Natalie and she moved even more behind Cyrus.She was not even hearing what he was saying. All she was thinking in her head that Edwin has send this man here and he will take her with him to do whatever he wants with her.And this thought was causing goo

Author’s POV“Right Natalie. That is why you didn’t tell your husband that you sell your body to the clients of your father before they decide to sign the deal with him”.The colour drained out of Natalie’s face. Her breath got stuck in the back of her throat as she felt her heart sinking in the pit of her stomach. “Am I wrong?” Smith asked her as he took few steps closer towards where she and Cyrus were standing.Her scared eyes moved from Smith to look at her husband and her fear increased ten folds.If Cyrus was angry earlier then he was furious now. He looks like he is raging. His chest is heaving up and down in anger.The colour of his eyes which are stuck on Smith have turned a shade darker and he is looking murderous.Her heart stopped beating in her chest and she gulped in fear when his furious gaze moved from Smith and stopped on her.

Cyrus’ POV“How is she feeling now?” Maria asked me when she saw me entering into the kitchen. I am here to get an bottle of water for Natalie to drink at night.I could have asked the servants to bring it to my room but it’s already late at night. I knew everyone would have left for their quarters to rest.But she is surprisingly still here, doing something in kitchen.“She is fast asleep. But is very tired after today’s events. Her fever has also returned” I told her.“Poor soul” I heard Maria mumble under her breath and for the first time, I also felt the same way about her.The way she was crying earlier in my arms was heart-wrenching. The sound of her sobs were burning my ears.After pouring her heart out as she cried in my arms, she told me that she was tired and wanted to go home.Even though I wanted to know so much, wanted to ask her so many questions, I stopped myself from doing that.I guided her out of my company building and brought her home.

Author’s POVOne week later…“Okay Dad, I will attend the event with Natalie. Don’t worry…. Hmm..... Okay dad… I understand, bye” Cyrus said on the phone and disconnected the call after saying good bye to his father.He resumed signing the documents which he was signing before he got a call from his father.“Cancel all the schedule for the next Friday and reschedule them” Cyrus said to his secretary William while keeping his eyes fixed on the papers in his hand. “I have already cleared your schedule for that day, Mr. Knight” William replied.Cyrus nodded his head in appreciation at his secretary’s competency. William is really good at his work and Cyrus never forgets to acknowledge this fact.He can trust him with anything.

Natalie’s POVTwo days later…I looked at myself in the mirror before letting out a shaky breath.My palms are clammy while my heart is going haywire in my chest. And I realised that I am visibly nervous at this moment.I patted myself on my chest to calm my erratically beating heart and whispered to myself, “Relax Nat. You can do it”. I tried to smile while looking at myself in the mirror and my smile looked really weird. I tried to smile naturally and did a small rehearsal, just how Cyrus taught me.“I am Natalie Knight. Your.. n..new manager” I tried to say it confidently but failed miserably.“Why can’t you do this easy thing?” I asked myself in frustration.“Because you are thinking too much” I heard Cyrus talking from behind me and turned around to look at him.He walked towards me and said, “I told you to just relax. Think that there is no one in front of your eyes. Or act like you do when you fight with me. Because you don’t stammer on to your words when you shout at m
