CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 54- UPCOMING MOVE
ARIEL POV I woke up with a dull pain in my forehead. I opened my eyes slowly, as it was blurry for a few seconds. My eyes met with Ryan's face, as his hand hung on my arm. I breathed in, as the closeness between us seemed terrifying. I almost stopped breathing. He looked even handsome while sleeping, strands of his hair making their way to his forehead. His pink lips were partly open, making me gulped down saliva down my throat at the thought that suddenly ran through my mind. His eyes opened, as I just stared. "Hey. You are awake?”His voice was low and crispy. I simply nodded, gently removing his hold on me. I felt a sharp pain as I tried to sit up. I held on to my forehead, as if it would do justice in stopping the pain. “Hangover right? So much for your bravery last night.”Ryan snickered, as he moved to my side. "Stop bullying me. It tasted like orange juice. How was I supposed to know it would be so alcoholic.” My words led to more laughter from him. "It's fine. I gues
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 55- TRIP CUT SHORT
RYAN POV I couldn't stop getting mesmerized by Ariel, as we spoke. I was beginning to like this part of her, the flirtatious one. It was more than the little things that drew me to her. The way she spoke, her lovely smile, the way her eyes sparkled with delight. The way her lips move whenever she speaks always leaves me speechless, and yearning for her to speak. Her voice is gentle, and crisp. She was the perfect example of a virtuous lady. I noticed her gaze on me from time to time. When our eyes meet, she always looks away shyly. "Thinking about me.” Her eyes blinked as I made sure I was close to her. She jeered back slightly, as my lips twitched into a mischievous smirk. She rolled her eyes, and said: “Cocky much. Let's finish this food.” I settled my eyes on her,keeping my hands together. . "You are probably wondering how I would sneak up on you.” She bit my lips, trying to stop herself from blushing. "Take your mind off the gutter. What if people are eavesdropping.” S
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 56-ENEMY FROM THE PAST
ARIEL POV That ended our one-week honeymoon abruptly. Mum wouldn't stop disturbing Ryan to bring me back to the States. Ryan gave in 2 days to the allotted one week we were to spend, as we boarded a flight back. Ryan was furious, as he could not get footage. Whenever I thought about the fact that someone is after either one of us, it crept the hell out of me. Even when I insisted we could spend our remaining days, Ryan didn't buy my idea. He was anxious about my safety, most especially.It makes me happy to know he cared about me. I like how his facial and body expression shows it. And he did his possible best to lift my mind off the incident. Apparently, there was no trail whosoever to who must have tampered with the brakes. As for the message I received anonymously, it somehow got deleted off my phone within a twinkle of an eye. It almost made it difficult for Ryan to trust me. I got a million calls from Eva, who was distressed. We were able to keep the incident from the othe
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 57- MARRIAGE CONSUNMATION
ARIEL POV Months kept going and within a twinkle of an eye, it was already 9 months of my marriage with Ryan. It was mind-blowing to witness what true love is. The compassion, care, attention Ryan showed were beyond my imagination. Even though there are spur moments when there is an argument, it is always settled within a day.My love for him kept growing stronger, and somehow I kept hoping to hear him say those words to me: 'I LOVE YOU'. It will probably be the best moment of my life. As much as I tried not to reflect much on my encounter with Damien at the party, I still feel a hurricane of emotions streaming through me every time my mind went to his words. Was it his relationship with Eva, which I feared deeply? What if he was passing time with the innocent girl just to get even with Ryan? What if he still wanted revenge? What if he still yearned for me? What if..... I groaned deeply as I facepalmed. A lot of What if's going through my head. He was weird, and seemed to know
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 58- MARRIAGE EXPECTATIONS
ARIEL POV Sleep deserted me abruptly, leaving behind a groggy and tired self. I pried myself off the bed and sat up. The previous night, suddenly appearing before my very eyes. I remembered Ryan's fleeting,feather-light touches around my face and neck, his eyes staring into mine, the incredulous look on his face when he had felt the barrier of my innocence. The way he spoke gently in my ears, to calm myself. It was a night I would never forget. It was blissful, pain first followed by pleasure. I glanced sideways, as Ryan was not beside me. He was probably bathing. I gently lifted the duvet off my body, as I noticed the blood stain on the bed. I wanted to stand, but I felt weak and hungry. The kiss, hugs, words of reassurance and the love making sends my body tingling with sensation. It was as if we bonded last night. A night meant to never be forgotten. The bathroom door opened, as Ryan got out. My gaze lingered to him, as his body was wet, his blonde hair messy. His well-buil
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 59- A LOVEY DOVEY CONVERSATION
RYAN POV It has just been a day since I tasted the forbidden fruit. No, definitely not the forbidden fruit. It was a gift meant for us, as a married couple. A day since I had felt the barrier of her innocence. My very first night of passionate sex, my very first time. It was unbelievable that Ariel was my first, likewise was I. My mind couldn't stop wandering as I worked in the office. All I could see were her smiles, beautiful face shining and being radiant. I yearned for more, but I wanted to apply self-control. "Sir." I felt someone tap me, as I shook out of the trance I was in. "Yes.”I looked up at my chief executive, before glancing around. I had gotten lost at the meeting. “Oh Ariel, you won't be the end of me.”I mused. "Please carry on.”I rested my palm under my chin, trying hard to block the constant imagination of Ariel and me. "Sir, the business deal with Mrs. Samantha company is still on. We need to know your next course of action.”He stated, as I breathed ou
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 60- LOVE LETTERS
ARIEL POV It would be best to describe the past few days. It was wondrous, beautiful, blissful. I can't think of the perfect adjective to describe it. Ryan couldn't help but almost stop me from visiting his family for the weekend. He insisted he would feel lonely. After much pleading, he accepted on the note of having some of my ready-made cooked meals as well as food recipes. It warmed my heart to know he really cared about me. It had been day two of my visit to the Ackers home, and no doubt I longed for something. Ryan and I had been communicating steadily on phone calls and messages. The most heart lifting one was his special love letter he promised to send throughout the weekend. The one I read yesterday made my heart warm and joyful. The letters, words made a lot of sense, and touched me deeply. Ryan should be a writer. "You're thinking about your hubby, aren't you?”Eva's voice jolted me out of my reverie. She wiggled her eyebrows, prompting me to laugh. She q
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 61- ANGER ISSUE
RYAN POVWords alone can't describe how I had felt for the past two days. Without her, it was difficult to remain too well. I had to eat alone, cook, and sleep alone, this reminding me of the time I was single. And when I finally saw her, with that beautiful smile on her face, I felt my heart full. It was glaring to say my heart felt too full and tight, at the sight of her. She was the one for me. And when she drew me into a warm embrace, I felt my body suddenly light. I felt like not leaving her. I breathe in that familiar scent, reminding me of how it calms my soul. I felt my heart throbbed when she said those words: “I MISSED YOU”It made me the happiest man on earth, just in the arms of my darling wife. "Aww. You guys are making the single ones like us jealous with the scene in front of us.” I groaned at Eva's comment, as Ariel chuckled against my chest before pulling away, our eyes locking each other briefly. Those brown eyes. How, I have missed them so much. "You would

CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 90- LOVE CONQUERS AT LAST
#FIVE YEARS LATER ARIEL POV We have come this far, and to be honest, it hasn't been easy. What drives us as a couple is the in-depth love that cares at all times. It had been a beautiful ride, completely worth it. My years of marriage with Ryan had been the best. It taught me lessons- to be tolerant and patient. To love and cherish Ryan and just when I fell in love with him, which wasn't reciprocated at first, I almost thought I would give up. But I never did. Evelyn's entrance into our life was yet something that left the fringes of hope that I had . The thought of Ryan finally loving me suddenly escaped into thin air. I wanted to vent my spleen and maybe give up, but my love for Ryan kept me going. It was a daily reminder that I had someone worth holding on to. Love is patient and kind, never seeks out for its own interest. My six years of marriage helped me to see clearly that sometimes, love is not a feeling. Because if it was, it would have faded like dust. I hit the
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 89- MAKE UP
ARIEL POV My mouth dropped for seconds, as I stood. Ryan waved his hand, stopping my forward movement. He took one last glance at me, before walking further into the house. My throat dried, as a bitter feeling erupted inside of me. I felt bad for what I did. But I was scared. The thought of having a child seemed quite overwhelming at first, not to mention the fact that I wasn't sure Ryan was ready to be a father yet. “He will come around. Don't bother too much about it, sis.”Lucille's hand patted my shoulder, as I faked a smile. "I guess this was a bad timing. I have to leave now. You guys need time to sort things out.”Lucille commented as she held her bag. "Wait. What about the biscuits? I made them specially for you.”I took some in a plastic container as I placed it in her bag. She simply looked on, as I walked her out of the house. We hugged for the last time, as she promised to visit with her husband next time. I closed the door behind, feelings of chaos slowly fillin
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 88- DISCOVERY
RYAN POV It had been three weeks since Ariel moved back and my life had gotten better with her company. It was just like the good old days. Our conversations were quite a fine one with no stoppers to make it awkward in any way. Well, all had been good except for the lovemaking part. We always end up making out, but not any further into sex. Ariel always laid complaints or excuses, making me wonder if she was afraid of something. Or maybe she wasn't ready to have sex with me again. That thought had been lingering in my mind as far as possible. Even when I asked her what was wrong, she only asked me to be patient. I am patient, and I trust she must have a good reason for holding back. I really hope the reason wasn't because of me. I expelled a breath the moment I entered the garden at my mum's mansion. Everywhere was rather quiet with just the chirping of birds, and flapping of wings. The green plants blossomed greatly, making every part all green. I walked towards my mum, who se
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 87- THE REUNION
ARIEL POV Summer is one of the best four earths seasons that foreshadows Autumn. The days become warm, hot, and long, nights shorter. Everyone loves summer. I love it too. It was the best time to go on a vacation, especially spending more time closer to the sea. Plenty of leaves on trees and numerous plants to admire. It was always a beautiful day to observe creation. And that was how I had been spending my days, yearning for Ryan to be beside me. Occasionally, I imagine us going for a vacation – just the two of us. Maybe Eva's question really got me, making me reconsider going back to Ryan. I didn't have the perfect words to reply to Eva that very day she asked that question, and I was grateful the doorbell came to my rescue once again. But now, the right answer was on the tip of my heart. Most times when I glance outside, it was always as if I felt Ryan's presence. Every gift he always sent was full of graceful and sweet words that often melt my heart. I really missed
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 86- HEART POUNDING
RYAN POVIt has been over a week since I witnessed that horror scene that kept plaguing memories. The secrets that came with it only left my mind off, my body trembling with anger and disappointment. Nick came right on time. Dad and Evelyn saved, which at least made me feel better. I wanted to let them live, even with the hurt they caused me. They made me look like a fool for so many years. However, it made me grateful that all these happened. It made me feel special to have Ariel in my life. She is a special gem who has helped me introduce changes to myself. Slowly, she helped me strip off my old personality. As for dad, he was arrested and will be spending the rest of his life in prison. He was involved in illegal deals with drugs and human trafficking. It was a shocker. Evelyn, on the other hand, was under confinement in the psychiatric hospital, as she was being taken care of. It was shocking to realize that her mental health was at stake because of my dad, who used these dru
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 85-THE TRUTH
RYAN POV Everyday seems like I would go out of my mind any moment from now. It is really appalling to see the effect Ariel had on me. And so far so good, I have been able to make a decision if at all she ever agrees to be in my life again. I had decided to resign from being the CEO of this company. I hadn't told anyone about this, as I was still debating on it. I wanted to be certain I really wanted that simple lifestyle I yearned for those past years. My fingers shook as I waited patiently for Eva to text back. I had been asking her about Ariel all this while. It was safe to say I was happy she was doing fine. But, I really missed her. I felt miserable without her. Ariel still proved to be the best as she saved food recipes for me. I cooked with them and it has been my lifesaver. I wondered what would have happened if Ariel didn't leave those recipes of hers. I would have been diagnosed with ulcer - the ailment I had battled with in the past. Even Though I didn't thoroughly en
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 84- ATTEMPTED MURDER
ARIEL POV Being pregnant seemed to be tampering with my mood, as I seek solace in quiet places. In fact, I love silent places. I love to be alone most of the time. Eva has been the kindest soul as she often sttays with me. She always leaves for work in the morning and returns in the evening. Damien had been making sure I was regularly checked by the doctor. Every now and then, I felt lonely, the thought of Ryan's well-being hovering in my mind. I didn't give in too much thought to Eva's words, but I still imagine what it was like for Ryan to have witnessed his father having sex with his wife. It was a betrayal that will definitely sting deep. I wonder if he is drowning in alcohol, or wallowing in self-pity. He probably misses me now. I sighed, as I glanced at my new phone, as if I was expecting a call from him. He doesn't even have access to my new number. How will he call? I grimaced at my thought. The doorbell rang, as I made to stand, but stopped as Eva passed by. "I wi
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 83- PREGNANT
ARIEL POV There was comfortable silence, as the doctor took her final check on me. I fought with the apprehensive thoughts running through my mind, and it took a lot of courage not to give way to tears, especially if the doctor confirmed Eva's words to me. Eva had demanded that Damien call a doctor to check up on me, and a test had been run on me. The last few hours are all dedicated to me. "Miss Ariel is two weeks and a few days pregnant.”The doctor dropped the bombshell, as I felt my heart pinned. I should have expected this, but it was as if I were in a trance. Eva's body collided with mine, as she engulfed me into a hug. She stared at me with a giant smile plastered on her lips. It was as if she won a lottery. "Congratulations sister-in-law.”She beamed, her palm resting on mine. I gave her a small smile, still not acquainted with the new discovery that made me rather speechless. "Thank you doctor.”Damien spoke, as he gave me a smile, which I reciprocated. The doctor ment
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 82- SURPRISE
RYAN POV Moans and groans filled the four corners of the room. I watched their illicit act, each part of my body trembling and almost breaking. They were caught up in the sham of CONSUMMATION that they were oblivious to my presence. I simply looked on, my feet unable to move. I was beyond stunned. Finally, my assumption was proved right in front of me. My dad had been screwing with my wife for like forever. It stabbed me like a knife, at the betrayal. Evelyn's innocence had been lies all this while, yet I fell for it. I allowed her to jeopardize my relationship with Ariel. I savaged my College life, doing everything to please her. She had always claimed to be a virgin and that had been one major reason why our relationship hadn't gone past kissing, hugging and holding hands. But it was clear. She never loved me. She was only pretending. She only loved my father. I turned to leave, making a slight noise with my shoes, and it seemed to do the trick of distracting them. “Ryan…”
