Claiming the Billionaires Frosty Heart BETRAYAL
JAY'S POVNot many people might remember but I wasn't always wealthy nor was I born into wealth.In fact I was born into a poor family. My father was unlucky and never got his chance. He laboured day and night working for a big company. And my mother was the most beautiful woman I knew. People say I got my looks from her. I loved my parents and everyday I studied harder hoping to bring my family out of poverty one day. Suddenly my mother changed. I was fourteen then. That time, I gave myself excuses why she was feeling frustrated. She was a woman and there was so much she needed that my father couldn't provide. But still… still she should have been patient and understanding of my poor hardworking father. She began to neglect my father and I. She insulted daddy to his face always and called him poor. She began to worry and care only about her looks and her desire for money suddenly skyrocketed. Showing no respect to me or daddy, she brought home men. She cared not for our feelin

KAREN'S POVWho could have told Jay I visited his mother?It was a long walk out of the hospital. I lingered in the hospital, worried. I knew he was going to be angry but I never knew he would push me away like this. Miss Catherine would never have told him. So who told him?Or was it just his mere guessing? Jay was a very smart man but there was no way he could have directly questioned me about it if he wasn't sure about it. Someone definitely had told him. And the only person aside from Miss Catherine that knew of this whole thing was…“Jessica.”Now that I thought of it, I recalled I had seen a smirk in her face the moment Jay asked me to leave. And they were together. The imagination of it alone was so devastating. I called Jessica and requested we see at the hospital restaurant and she agreed. But for the next thirty minutes, I waited. It wasn't the waiting that bothered me but the fact that she was still inside with Jay. What could they be doing? That was literally the

KARENI heard voices and forced my eyes open. “She is finally awake,” Lily said, shaking her head. "I'm off to school. Bye auntie Tina!”“Bye Lily dear. Have a nice day at school!”Still trying to sort the millions of scenes and words playing in my head, Tina came over to the bed. “How long did you cry? I found you in some bar. Hell, Your eyes were damn swollen and puffy and the bar woman was on the verge of locking you out.”“What happened?” I asked as I began to push myself up. “Ouch…shit..” I groaned, feeling my head bang. “Easy now.” Tina lent me a hand until I steadied on my feet. I walked to the kitchen and downed a bottle of water. Crushing the bottle in my palms, I threw it into the trash can. “It's this about your billionaire chairman boyfriend? what happened this time?”I sighed as the memories of last night filtered through my head. “Nothing,” I said, forcing a hard gulp. “Nothing and what is this?” She waved my reassignment letter. “You have been reassigned to the c

“You can't see him now,” Mr Hugo said, blocking Jessica from entering Jay's office. Jessica stepped back, half pissed. “What do you think you are doing?”“Chairman Jay is busy at the moment,” Hugo added firmly. “You haven't told him I am here yet. Make the announcement. You are not Jay and you have no right to turn away his guests.”“I speak the mind of my boss. I would advise you to return when he is less busy.”Jessica glared at Hugo. “I see you are finally showing your fangs…You know I was beginning to imagine how much longer you could hold up…hating me. But you know what, your hatred won't sway a strand of my hair. You know why, you are nothing but a mere secretary. Now go in there and inform Jay I am here to see him.”The door opened. “Let her in, Hugo,” Jay said. Mr Hugo remained in the spot for another moment before he finally moved away. Jessica swayed past but not without rolling her eyes and hissing with irritation at him. “Hey sweetie. How are you feeling today.” She s

“Let's watch the movie another time. You can take another car,” Jay told Jessica and got into the car alone. “But… “Jessica tried to protest then stopped. “That bitch…” she clenched. As Jay's car drove off, she strongly contemplated on getting back inside to have a go at Karen or going after Jay. Shit!” She cussed, stepping out to flag a taxi down This was the time she needed to be by Jay's side the most. To win his heart, she had to act when he was most vulnerable and she almost did it. But Karen had ruined things for her. She bit her lips and groaned in frustration. Taxis weren't coming forth and she hadn't brought her car. It would have been a lot easier if they had just gone to the movies together. Why did Karen have to speak at the worst timing?Finally an empty taxi pulled up. Muttering profanities under her breath she got in. Miles ahead of her, Jay sat at the back of the car. He had loosened his neck tie, taken off his suit coat yet something still tugged uncomfortably

Catherine felt a bit relaxed and comforted after Karen left. Seated on the bed, she raised her pillow and took out a picture.A man smiling broadly held her close and in their midst was a little boy. His smile dazzled as he grasped her and the man's fingers. Holding the picture close to her chest, she sobbed silently. There were so many regrets in her heart. If she had a chance to return to her life many years ago…she would gladly give anything. “Miss Catherine, you have a visitor,” a nurse entered and informed her. “A visitor?”As far as she knew, the only visitor she ever had was Karen. She looked up at the nurse, certain there was an error somewhere. “I'm sorry nurse but I think you are mistaken. My only visitor just left minutes ago.”“You are Miss Catherine right?” “Yes, I am.”The nurse confirmed with the notepad in her arm. Then she turned back to her,” then I have the right person. If it's okay with you, should I send him in?”“Him?” Catherine felt the walls of her stom

KARENI fumed inside when I heard people talking badly about Jay behind his back. The popular saying of you never knowing when people would turn back against you in a matter of seconds for when things go wrong played in my head at such times. These were people he might have in one way or another helped. If only they knew even one thing about him… they would not talk shit about him. Later when I visited Catherine, she looked pale. I knew immediately that something was amiss. But she would not speak about it. “Did something happen?” I asked her. She forced a smile. “Nothing is wrong, my dear. Now that I am approaching death, some days my body feels so weak and unable to do anything,” she said, smiling faintly. “Don't speak of death so lightly. I know I'm not supposed to be getting involved in your life. But could you tell me why you have decided to not take the chemotherapy as your doctor suggested?”“What is the use of living…” she shrugged and muttered under her breath with a s

“Would you be satisfied to see her die? Why are you being stubborn!” Karen slammed. “You think I'm being stubborn? Then you know nothing about me.” Jay spun and darted back to his seat. But stopped when he had almost gotten around his desk. His chest tightened and he forced down a hard lump. Turning around to face Karen while putting up the calmest expression he could mutter. “You should leave. I am never seeing her again. I am still trying to remedy the situation she has brought upon me and my company.”“Your trauma all started because of her. I know. You have nightmares and seizures. You love and hate her at the same time. You know why? Because you still think about her.” She spoke almost accusingly that it pricked Jay. Jay's brows furrowed as he stared narrowly at Karen. The next instant he turned around and backed her. “Leave.”“Jay…reconsider your decision. I know you want to hate her so much. But do you know I hate her more than you? I hate her for hurting you…for putting y

KAREN'S POV Arriving at Denva after one month of being away felt like I had been away for so long. Like I was stepping in a new place. Maybe it was just that part of me that was feeling a bit refreshed. I got out of the long bus dragging my echolac along. One of the things I wanted to do the moment I returned to Denva was visit Jessica. Glad she was being punished for her crimes. I also heard about Collins Morgan. Maybe at one point, I thought he was cute but not until I learned the other side of him. After I read the things he did to women, I could never see him in a pure light again. He was in jail too. He got what he deserved. As I sat in the visitor seat waiting for them to bring Jessica out, I imagined me being the one on the other side. I mean, it was almost me if not for Tina “I didn't expect to see you here. What is it?” Jessica slurred as she settled down. “Me neither.”“So?

A MONTH LATERJay pulled up in the empty space of Anderson ‘s front yard which had turned to become his personal parking space in the last month. He had just opened the car door to step down when the frontage of the house opened and both Lily and Mr Anderson poked their heads out. He didn't need them to speak to see the magnitude of disappointment in their eyes. Of course he knew they would rather have Karen be the one appearing in front of the house and not him. And he also knew they always ran out to check each time a car pulled up in front of the house in the hope that it was Karen. They might likely not know because he never showed it but he missed her more than he could describe. He sighed and his teeth grinded in his mouth as he finally stepped down. “Hello, Mr Anderson,” he greeted wearing the smile he had learned to wear in the last month. Mr Anderson, like he always had done, took his hand into a firm shake and welcomed him inside. Mr Anderson offered him his usual kol

WRITER'S POV“You…how…what are you doing here?” Margaret waved a hand as she walked in majestically. “Hello fiancé.” Collins gaped in shock. slowly everything began to make sense. “What did you do to me?” He snarled. “Oh, come on, shouldn’t you say Hi to your fiance first?”“What did you fuvking do to me!”Detective Defoe ordered that Zach and Hunter be taken away from the room leaving only Collins and Margaret. Collins was still clenching and fuming. “You have been spiking my drinks…you are the cause of all this…”“Like how you and your friends have been doing to those innocent girls? Oh, common' you don't think I can stoop to that level now do you.”No matter how much Collins reasoned it, there was no other explanation as to how drugs were detected in his blood. Either detective Defoe tampered with the original results or it was the devil before him. “What exactly did I do to you? Why are you out to get me? Why! Why! No matter how I think about it, I have not offended you in any
Claiming the Billionaires Frosty Heart "I'm sorry"
WRITER'S POV Jay spoke to the lawyer in charge of Karen's case. What the lawyer told him worried him. Karen risked being detained in the holding cell after twenty four hours. He had already hired a private investigator to investigate the case. His eyes appeared weary. He had not had a moment of rest ever since Karen was taken in. Adams group needed him but Karen needed him too. Against Hugo's wishes, he had opted to stay back in the police station while he let him hold the forte back at the company. Even though Karen sent him away, he had refused to leave. He knew she was upset at him and he completely understood. All he wanted more than anything was to get her out of here. Later he spoke to the officer to let him speak to Karen again. To his relief, Karen permitted. “I spoke to your lawyer,” he said when they were given privacy. “What did he say?”“It's more difficult than we thought. The hitman maintains you sent him. We need solid evidence to disprove his claim and I asked t
Claiming the Billionaires Frosty Heart UNEXPECTED TURN
WRITER'S POV “Your hands at the back of your head!”Zach's gleeful laughter was booming in the room when the door burst open and a team of policemen barged in. Instantly it seized. Pistols aimed at their faces.Alarmed, Collins sat up. Hunter and Zach frightfully pushed away the girl who looked half dead from the drugs she had been made to shove down. “Who called the cops?” Collins gritted, shooting glares at Zach and Hunter. “We should be asking you that!” Zach slammed back.“Your hands at the back of your head!” The officer repeated his warning. Collins could feel his shirt soak with sudden perspiration as he looked around in utmost disbelief and fear inside. He had been arrested for a lot of things but had never been caught right in the act and why in this place of all places. “Shit!”Detective Defoe stepped forward, a victorious smirk lingering in his lip. “Is there a need for us to read your Miranda rights…this wouldn't be your first rodeo,” he said and pressed the cuff firml

WRITER'S POV A FEW HOURS AGO BEFORE KAREN'S ARREST “What!” Jessica's yelp and her palm finding Craig's face happened in quick succession. “Say it again. What did you just say?”Craig’s jaw grinded. It pained him how he had been foolish to want to accept the challenge of tolerating a spoiled brat. Now he was too deep into the shit to take a step back. “It was Miss Tina that was shot. The hit man mistook her for miss Karen as she saw her coming out of Miss Karen's house.”“Simple job! Just a simple thing to do. Useless people! Can't get anything done right.” Then she spun at Craig, “You brought that idiot to me. You told me he was skilled. What happened? He couldn't take care of one person, just one person! He has been caught and he shot the wrong person. Who did you fuvking bring to me!”She stalked to the wine rack to grab a drink, each step she took fueled by barely contained fury. She had to do something before the man said a word to the police. She had to do something. She had
Claiming the Billionaires Frosty Heart NUMB
KAREN'S POV From learning that my friend got shot to hearing the worst news of my life. My friend of many years had wanted me dead because she wanted my man. I couldn't move in my seat. I couldn't, even if I wanted to. I shut my eyes hoping to wake up and find out that everything was all a nightmare until I felt my hand being grabbed and the cold metals clasping my wrist. Maybe it was because I was already numb of any feelings at all that I didn’t feel a pain as the thing locked my arms together. As I was being cuffed, I heard Jay try to speak to one of the officers. Didn't make out his exact words nor the officer’s response but soon they started to take me away. Down the hallway, the pitiful and judgemental gazes of people washed me head to toes. I followed humbly as they led me outside. “I'm coming to the station with her,” I heard Jay say to the officers as they pushed me into the hilux. “No. You don't need to. Officers let's go,” I refused. The last thing I wanted was to wa

WRITER'S POV“What’s wrong?”Jay asked frozen Karen. Karen didn't move. Her hand dropped lifelessly beside her. Every bit of colour was drained from her face as she struggled to process what she had just heard.“I’m sorry, but I have to leave now,” she mumbled absentmindedly and her legs broke into a run. “Wait, Karen!” Jay rushed and grabbed her arm.“You are going the wrong way,” he said. Karen looked and saw she was heading towards the back of the building. She let out a shuddering breath. “I have to go…”“Please, tell me. What's wrong?” Jay demanded softly. “Tina was shot in front of my house,” Karen murmured. “Shot? How…”“I need to leave now. I need to go to her…Tina needs me…” Maybe this was the answer she needed. Tina was more than a best friend. She was her family and she would not have to be made to either choose her or not in order to be with a man. If there was one person who had always been by her side and she would never want to lose, it was Tina. “Jay, about what y
Claiming the Billionaires Frosty Heart TOUGH CHOICE
KAREN'S POV It was one of the fewest times I ever wished twenty four hours didn't have to end so quickly. After the exhilarating night, it would have been exhausting if I had to wake up early the next day for work or anything at all. It was already mid day by the time my eyes saw daylight. It was the warm light rays that woke me up. The window, although still closed, allowed a generous trail of sun rays trickling inside. Jay was nowhere to be found. Thinking he would be somewhere in the suite, I called out to him but no response.Something in me kicked. I had seen a similar scenario. Like those times when a man brought his lover for a vacation only for the woman to learn it was actually supposed to be their last time together. Stepping outside the suite and I was welcomed by the workers going about their duties with the nice smell of food and fresheners. I walked up to one of them. “Hello. Excuse me…have you seen a man…”“Yes. He is somewhere around. How about you sit in the wa
