CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 73- IT'S ALRIGHT TO CRY
RYAN POV Everyday kept reminding me of how urgent I needed to act fast, concerning my perfect plan. It would be perfect, that is, if Evelyn accepted. It wasn't easy going ahead with this plan, but it was what seemed better to me at this point. I really hope this is the right thing to do, and most importantly, I hope it works out. I stared at the documents in my hand, as I walked into Evelyn's apartment. She raised her head away from her phone, as her eyes met mine. "Ryan. You are welcome.” She stood, had a wide smile that was painted on her lips. I sighed, requesting we talk in the dining area. She sat opposite me, her eyes not leaving me. I suddenly felt nervous. 'This is for you and Ariel. You can do this, Ryan' I changed the mantra in my head, trying to be courageous. "So, what's up?”She touched the back of my palm, jolting me out of my reverie. I adjusted, bringing out her personal copies of what I made out with my lawyer. I handed it to her, as her gaze lingered from t
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 74- ENCOUNTER
I sighed for the umpteenth time today, as I finally got to update my novel anonymously after a long period of time. Every time I felt so filled up, my mind was always wandering. Being a writer wasn't easy for me because my personal life interfered with my writing. I've been emotionally down, with different thoughts waging me day and night. It felt like my peace of mind was being thwarted. I wasn't happy. Ryan wasn't doing a good job either. He avoids me, and it only makes my heart ache. Even when I made the decision to keep him at arm's length, I felt it was a wrong move, so I will keep enduring, at least for the moment. I checked the comment section after I had pointed out the love story of Ryan and I will be ending in a sequel. The comments were lovely, as most encouraged me to upload on time.I was delighted and appreciated them. Readers who comment are the best. Kathleen and Eva are still the set of individuals who uplifted my spirit almost every time. They still try to convi
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 75- DEFENSE
RYAN POV It was always relieving to know the kind of wife I had. Patient, loving, and kind. She was the perfect wife material. And even when things weren't really balanced between us, it didn't stop the respect she gives to me. Ariel and I had been invited to a family dinner by mother, and it was enough to remind me that I hadn't made the necessary steps in apologizing to Ariel. After discovering it might be someone who was close to me that caused my misfortune right from the beginning, I tried my best not to think of anyone in my family. To me, it was a waste of time. Nick had further assured me not to attempt to overthink it, but simply wait for Mr. Martin to investigate thoroughly. It requires patience, and I hope I can be that patient. The car door opened, breaking my thoughts, and I glanced at the intruder. My mouth dropped slightly open, as Ariel stepped into the car, that familiar scent of hers wafting through my nose. My heart stuttered, as I kept staring at the beaut
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 76- HEART STOPPER
RYAN POV I hastened my footsteps, trying as much as possible to get to the 2nd floor of the hospital. I was tense slightly, worried about Evelyn, who had been hospitalized. It was my lunch period when I got a call that she was in the hospital as a result of food poisoning. How was that even possible? I made sure all the food and fruits provided to her were good and safe to consume. The doctor had given me a report on what the issue was, but I was least bothered about that. My legs halted on stepping on the room, as she was sitting on the bed, the nurse helping with the removal of the drips which seemed to have been passed through her body. She looked pale, a veil covering her face. Her gaze met mine, as the nurse left, leaving just her and me in the room. I took a few steps closer, as I let out a sigh of relief. "How are you feeling?”I asked, as she turned sideways. "I am fine now. I had a stomach ache early this morning. I thought it was just a normal one, not until Claudia
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 77- A SPECIAL NIGHT
RYAN POV In life, the sooner one decides,it might be for better or worse. With a heavy heart, I left Ariel that night. I wasn't happy about it, but I had to go. My conscience kept prickling me, as I really hoped I could come back on time and make it up to her. For now, I had to meet with Evelyn, who, according to the doctor, needed to be watched. She could harm herself without thinking. She was entirely different from the Evelyn I knew. My time with her made me see clearly her sense of wanting to compete with Ariel. I still pitied her, though. My drive to her place ended with a conclusion on one of my numerous thoughts. I knew for a certainty that I was no longer in love with her. Once she recovers from amnesia, I will put a proper means to divorce her. I halted as I saw Ma'am Claudia by Evelyn's room. Her eyes met mine, as she had tears in her eyes. I took giant steps closer as she landed on my body, as she slightly rested on me. "She screamed from her sleep and swiftly went
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 78- HAPPY ANNIVERSARY
RYAN POV One of the bedrocks of marriage lives is the sexual part. It plays an important role, often as a means to express love among couples. It is mutual and loving, especially when enjoyed by both marriage partners. Last night happened to be the best I had with Ariel. It was phenomenal, and words alone can't explain it. Her hands lingering at the right places, coupled with her soft moans filling the air. Our bodies moved in rhythm as we consummated. I twirled around on my chair, imagining the scene from yesterday. I left the house early this morning, while watching Ariel sleep soundly, her hair plastered on her face, making her look like a sleeping beauty. The knock on my door jolted me out of my numerous thoughts on Ariel's ravishing body. I stared down, realizing I had a throbbing down there. I groaned slightly, dissuading off my thoughts, as I leaned close to my table. "Come in.”I spoke, as my gaze fell on the person appearing through the door. Her stare cut to
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 79- SAD ONE
RYAN POV I downed another glass of whiskey, heat crawling to my chest as it tightened. It burned my throat, bringing tears that stung my eyeballs. I felt miserable, useless, and stupid. I allowed my confused self to get the best of me. I knew in my heart that I had pulled the last straw. Now, Ariel has left me. She forgave me at different times, but I kept losing it. I was limping between two opinions. I was basically sitting on the fence. I wanted her and Evelyn, which was idiotic of me. I am stupid. My phone rang as I checked, realizing it was a message from Ma'am Claudia. I sighed reading the message as Evelyn seemed to be throwing a tantrum. I felt chills down and instead of feeling angry at Evelyn, I blamed myself. I wish Ariel could have been more patient. Realizing I finally love her only made my heart hurt the more. I tried to stand, as I felt weak and drunk. My eyes blurry for a few seconds. I closed it, prying off the fogginess that eluded me. I should get to Evelyn
CHEMISTRY WITH A BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER 80- LAST CLUE
RYAN POV I yawned for the umpteenth time, resting my head against my palms, as I tried to rob off the fogginess that filled me. I haven't been able to have a proper sleep since Ariel left. It was frustrating to know that her presence served as an easy way of dealing with my insomnia. The light, soft fragrance that comes from her body often drew me to sleep land in no time. But now, I end up staying almost through the night, tossing and turning. I missed her. I shook my head, typing the remaining set of instructions to my new Secretary,Josh,who replaced Chloe. He had been good so far. Punctual and up to the task. He was a good replacement. I hit the send button as I rested my head on the chair. I ruminate over the investigator's information, feeling every part of me in turmoil. Was it possible Evelyn knew about this all this while? What if she doesn't actually have amnesia? I swallowed once, trying not to overthink or make a conclusion. I had the necessary health documents an

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…”
