Billionaire's Rebound: A story of Healing and Love. Chapter 19:
Carla Rodriguez Black. Time: 06:04 am Location: penthouse.The night was prolonged and I had spent most of it twisting and turning in my huge bed wondering why Ethan was so disrespectful to a mere friend of mine.Could it be that he was jealous or what?I stared at the chandelier while I mulled deeply about the new strange possessive behavior he displayed last night.Why was he in such a nasty mood? Could it be that he did not take full charge of the company?But he said I should not bother him about his whereabouts and he will reciprocate the gesture towards me. But what changed? I cupped my lips together while the noisy streets of Manhattan made it even harder to fall asleep. I peeked at the wall clock in my room, and the time was not moving faster than I wanted it.Fuck this, let me go find out why he treated me like that. I rumbled out of the king king-size and strolled straight for his room, forgetting that I only unraveled a sexy yellow lacey spaghetti strap short nightie Etha

Carla Rodriguez Black.Time: 5:47 pm.Location: unknown.As the car began to slow down, I could feel my body being gently pushed forward by the seat belt, and once the car came to a complete stop, I forced my eyes open and was immediately struck by the stunning sight in front of me, my jaw dropping slightly, because of a quaint cottage nestled among the trees. "Where are we?" I asked Ethan because the sun had already set and the ten-hour trip took a toll on me, leaving me exhausted and in need of a good rest."We are in Alexandra Bay." Ethan turned off the car engine with a splitting grin across his face even though his eyes were growing heavier."Wow, and we are spending the weekend here?" I gawked at the marvelous sight before me."Whose place is this?" I furrowed my brows slightly with one raised."It's mine." Ethan beamed and got out of the car.Of course, you own it too. I sneered silently while getting out of the car to get a better view of the place.The cottage was made of crea

Carla Rodriguez BlackFifty-five minutes later…I want you to imagine this for a moment, two grown adults of the opposite sex taking a shower alone in a private room without any sexual tension between the two of them…weird right?Well, that's exactly what happened when Ethan practically ordered me to take a bath with him…All that Ethan did was watch me as I bathed then he took his five-minute shower and was outMaybe he had a weird fetish about showering with strangers.What other odd things have you kept hidden from the public eye?I nervously fiddled with my fork, trying to keep my hands steady as I stared across the table where Ethan sat with his straight, smoldering sexy face, doing what he loved most, staring at his expensive phone… as if he was the only one with an occupied lifestyle.I scoffed While my head spun like everything around me."Why are you ever on your phone Mr bossy pants." I stuttered in slurred speech and he frowned at me."Did you just call me bossy pants?" He

Carla Rodriguez Black.The next morning,I was jolted awake by the throbbing pain in my head, feeling as though my head was being hammered from the inside. I groaned and rubbed my temples, trying to remember what happened the night before. Much to my bewilderment, my memory was hazy, and there were large blank spaces, blocking the events from my mind... I'm dressed in my PJs and wondered if Ethan took it upon himself to change my clothing.I peeked at Ethan's side of the bed and he was not there. It looked like he slept next to me, as the bedsheets were clustered but was not there. I squinted my eyes at one of those expensive silver-dial desk clocks, and it was past six in the morning.But where could Ethan have gone this early?Suddenly the sickening smell of the wine I drank last night hung heavily in the air, making me queasy. I gagged a little in my mouth before running straight to the bathroom and throwing up in the sink. I will never drink red wine again. I rinsed my mouth with

Ethan Black.Location: Alexander Bay.Time: 09:23 am.How do I get Carla pregnant without telling her about the new clause Dad put in his will?I darted my eyes in every direction in search of something to shoot with my father's rifle, but there was nothing... Last night Carla had presented that opportunity to get it done with, but I was not one who liked to take advantage of drunken women just to satisfy my needs. Maybe telling her the truth will lessen the burden on me? No, she might run for the hills once I tell her that we need to be intimate.But how will I succeed in my plan? I mulled deeply as I glanced around the woods I had been hunting my entire life and luck wasn't on my side today. After so many multiple failed attempts, I slumped down next to a tree with my rifle resting against it…I let out a sigh as I leaned my head back, closed my eyes, and pondered over the events that led me here.Carla's abrupt kiss. It was a shock and a scare for me because I did not know what

Ethan Black.I know it's not part of the contract but I need to get you pregnant with my seed… I smirked mischievously because this was the chance I was going to use to my advantage.I reached out for her plump pink lips and kissed her passionately, and she surprisingly returned the intensity of the kiss.Wow, this might just work.I moved my hand from her cheek to her neck, holding her close as our tongues explored each other's mouths.“Mr black, what are you doing to me?” Carla moaned and I broke away from the kiss just to look into her eyes, and they were dark filled with lust.“ I'm sorry Carla, but I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable, it's just that your beauty captivates my soul. I could not help but kiss you.” I looked away because I didn't want her to see the lies in my eyes. Carla frowned slightly for a short period of time then she softened her gaze “No, no mr Black don't apologies. You are right, Richard did lose something beautiful.” she turned my face to hers and smi

Richard Hall Location: Hudson Square.Time:6:09 pmI stepped into my house, exhausted from a long day at work and I was looking forward to winding down for the night with Karen. I hope she has cooked something decent to eat because I'm literally starved by this woman.She can't cook, she can't clean, she can't help out in the clinic…but she expected me to solely provide for her lazy ass.I admit, I missed Carla in such moments but going back to her barren self was not an option come what may.I glanced at the staircase and a short memory of Carla and I being intimate briefly floods my mind, I grinned and then quickly brushed that memory away.Not that I wanted to admit that I made a hasty decision with Carla, but after she left, my life became chaotic and I still wouldn't admit that because Karen had the most important thing I had been waiting for, my son…We confirmed our baby's gender a few days back and I couldn't be happier with the news.A son to carry on the business and the n

Carla Rodriguez Black,Location: presbyterian hospital."Mr Black, I'm sorry to be the barrier of bad news but the lung cancer is back." The doctor's words left me numb in Ethan's private hospital room. I peeked at Ethan and he looked unbothered by the news he just received. Did this mean he knew he was dying? But he looked perfectly fine for a person who was suffering from cancer. I swallowed slowly as I tried to comprehend the bomb the doctor suddenly dropped on me….***I'm sure you are wondering how I got back to Manhattan and was now at the hospital when you left me and Ethan gasping for air after the sexcapade we had.Well, after the guy almost died wheezing for air, Edina called for help and Ethan's helicopter showed up in Alexandra Bay and flew us back to Manhattan as that was where Ethan's private doctor was located at the time.Fast forward to the present time, I was now falling to breathe after receiving the horrible news.I just got married again and death was not the fri

Ethan Black.An hour later,My heart pounded as I stormed into my luxurious penthouse, the heavy doors to the elevator closing behind me. I needed to find Carla and finally disclose the truth that I had been hiding from her for far too long and this was all thanks to the sudden interest from Crystal's attempt to seduce me, had it urged me to reveal the sinister web that I had entangled her in."Carla!" I called out, my voice echoing through the expansive hallway. But instead of her familiar face, I was met with the warm smile of Victoria."Mr. Black, you're back," Victoria greeted me, surprise evident in her eyes. "Mrs. Black is in your office, finishing up with her online class.""Okay, thanks," I answered back, my anxiety heightened as I rushed towards my office, my mind racing with the weight of my secret.

Ethan Black,A few days later,Location: Black industries.I sat at my desk, engrossed in the countless reports scattered all around me. The luxurious office, adorned with tasteful artwork and polished furniture, seemed to fade away as I delved deeper into the number of reports I had to go through because of my leave of absence from the company. I was slowly fitting back in my seat of becoming the undisputed CEO of Blacks Industries, a successful billionaire drowning in responsibilities, that's who I was.Everything else had to come second in my life.As the late afternoon sun peered through the floor-to-ceiling windows, casting a warm glow over the room, my mind wrestled with the never-ending demands of the corporate world. It was in this whirlwind of thoughts that a sudden knock at my office door caught my attention."Come in," I called, my voice tinged with annoyance at the interruption, I briefly looked up to see who was disturbing me even after I strictly told Ava no visitors to

Carla Rodriguez Black,A few weeks after the operation…As I diligently tended to Ethan's surgical incision in our opulent penthouse, the tranquility of the moment was shattered by a sudden wave of nausea crashing over me. I got up from the chair I sat in and staggered backward, my hand instinctively cradling my stomach, feeling lightheadedness washing over me like a tidal wave. Panic started to rise within me. Something was not right."Baby, are you okay?" Ethan asked."Ethan," I managed to utter, my voice trembling, "Something's wrong. I don't feel well."Ethan's worried eyes immediately filled with concern as he swiftly rose from the couch, rushing to my side. "Carla, what happened? Should I call the doctor?" He put his palm on my forehead as if he wanted to take my temperature.Nodding weakly, I closed my eyes for a moment, trying to steady myself. "Yes, please. I don't know what's happening to me but my body suddenly feels drained of energy.""Maybe it's because of the blood you

Richard Hall,Location: Hudson Square.Time: 7:43 pm.I stepped into my house, my heart heavy with anticipation. I had been away on a business trip, and while I longed to see my fiancé Karen again, there was an unease gnawing at my gut. As I walked through the front door, the familiar sounds of laughter reached my ears, followed by a soft whisper that sent chills down my spine."Your kisses are tickling my neck, stop it," Karen's voice floated towards me from the living room, I immediately knew she had company.But who could be possibly tickling her with kisses?I quickened my pace, eager to reunite with her after days of separation.

Carla Rodriguez Black,The next afternoon at the hospital…The sterile scent of antiseptic filled the air, suffocating my senses as I stood outside the forbidding double doors of the operating room. My heart pounded wildly, trapped within the confines of my chest, while my mind raced with fear and anxiety. The fate of my beloved husband, Ethan, hung in the balance, teetering between life and death, on the precipice of a monumental decision."Good morning Carla," Sylvia stormed into the private waiting room I was waiting for Ethan… her normal elegant demeanor vanished. "Has the operation started already?" She asked with a pale face."Yes," I murmured."Oh dear, the New York traffic was hell, that's why I'm late." She said."It's okay, Ethan told me to tell you that he loves you and can't wait to see you after the operation." I delivered Ethan's last words to his mother and she whimpered."My poor boy." She flickered her eyes rapidly as she avoided dropping a tear."He will be fine" I r

It was my first time on such an extravagant boat, and I savored the moment, knowing it would be a night to remember.The evening sky, painted in hues of orange and pink, created a breathtaking backdrop as I made my way towards Ethan, who stood near the edge of the deck, a gentle smile playing on his lips. His presence was comforting, and my nerves began to settle as I approached him."Wow, Ethan, this yacht is incredible!" I exclaimed, my voice filled with awe.

Carla Rodriguez Black,"Ethan, she is asking about your health and not the mess we have created," I whispered to him, and for a moment he seemed dumbfounded by the chaos that lay in front of him.Then his face lit up like what I said made sense to him. " Oh, shit" he clasped his exposed buttocks with crimson cheeks. "Mother, I strictly told the doctor not to worry you with my business because I have already scheduled an operation for this week…" he spoke calmly and Sylvia raised her perfectly drawn eyebrow."Umh." She murmured with a stern poise." Besides it's the job of my wife to worry about me now and not you." He responded firmly and I gasped with shock.So he does want me to worry about his welfare…. I sneered silently while glaring at him.Mrs. Black frowned briefly but regained her composure, "I see," she replied, her voice icy. "I suppose I should've called before coming over. Clearly, I've interrupted something... intimate." She added.Ethan's grip on my arm tightened, a pro

Finally, I can say my life was getting back on track. I cringed my eyes shut as the golden sun began its descent, casting an enchanting hue over the city skyline. I sighed softly as I found myself standing on the balcony of the penthouse. My heart fluttered with anticipation of what my future held as a sense of excitement tingled through my veins. My contractual marriage had turned out to be a blessing in disguise after all.A chilly breeze embraced my skin as I only wore Ethan's shirt after the sexcapade we had again, but I was too delighted to feel the cold breeze clung to my skin. I grinned while looking down at the busy streets of New York."Hey, beautiful." Ethan wrapped his hands across my waist and kissed my neck softly. "It's getting chilly,
