Falling for the Billionaire Chapter 11
There were very little people that noticed me when I walked inside. They were probably not used to women walking in with a pair of striped shorts and an off-shoulder top with a sling bag hanging loose at the side of the waist, while the free hand clutched the phone. As I passed by a few cubicles, my eyes couldn’t help but land on the many office notes that had their CEO’s and his wife’s (who unfortunately had to be me) pictures and congratulation messages.It made me wonder why people had a very confused look on their faces when they were aware of who I was. Or maybe, I indeed caught them off guard by making an abrupt appearance. I walked straight to the reception and shot the man behind the counter one of my brightest smiles.“Hi, I’m here to meet your CEO,” I said, tapping my nails against the desk.The man behind seemed irked by my casual behaviour and lack of professionalism. He frowned at my fingers that were playing against the desk and looked back up at me with an unappreciativ

Later that afternoon, when the press conference has finally come to an end, I was reluctant to just let him attend one of his meetings. But I knew I couldn’t push him further, keeping in mind what the consequences could be so I let his driver drop me home.I felt my phone ring in the back pocket of my shorts and quickly answered it.“You guys are unbelievable! How the fuck am I ever going to arrange for a gown in a freaking day?” Jen cried“What the- Jen, give me my phone back. I called her.” Jordan’s voice rang behind in the background.“What, Fuck. Put some clothes on, you idiot. That won’t turn me on!” Jen said.“Jen-” I tried to speak.“Hey, Skylar. What are your plans for tonight? I’m really hungry and I was planning maybe-” Jordan said but was instantly cut off.“Give this thing to me! Hello! Skylar, can you hear? For the love of God, Lana didn’t tell you about the surprise, right? If she did, then it’s going to be such a disaster-”“Babe, you’re telling her everything!” Jordan

I quickly grabbed the shirt he was going to wear tonight and spilled some of my perfume on it. I know it’s nothing compared to what he did to me in the morning but I at least was doing something about it.When he came out of the bathroom, I already reminded my brain to not look at his indecent body and quickly averted my gaze away from his chest. Nevertheless, I couldn’t help.I quickly went inside the bathroom and filled the tub. However, the asshole already used up all the hot water. I peeled the clothes off and looked for the bubbles to add. To my horror, there was absolutely nothing in the bottles. I opened all the bottles only to find them all devoid of anything worthy of cleaning my body.“Ethan!” I yelled from inside.“Yea?” I heard him.“What in the world did you do to my body wash and soap and shampoo and conditioner and everything else?” I said in anger.“I can’t hear you, can I walk inside?” I knew he was trying not to laugh at me.I gaped at his words and quickly grabbed m

“What a show that was.” Jen squealed, digging her nails into my skin in excitement.“You know he did thaat because the media was around.” I rolled my eyes at her.She narrowed her eyes. “Don’t roll your eyes at me. I know you liked it too.”Upon my greeting with my silence, she continued.“How did it feel?” She said, pointing to my stomach. “Butterflies?”“Are you guys depressed about lack of romance in your love life? Do you want me to have a session with the boys?” I asked her. Why was everyone so interested in my love life??“Why would we? If anything, we’re over the edge of having a baby!” She laughed.“Then why is everyone excited over getting us back together like you guys are some depressed single-since-sixteen-years girls?” I said, trying hard to not glare at her. I don’t want pictures that I’d regret to have on Internet clicked right now.“Hey, first of all, we aren’t excited about this because of a lack of romance in our love life. And secondly, we’re just really good friend

A few minutes later, the five of us, Lana, Stella, Cassidy, Lucy, Jen, and I sat and stared at our drinks. I wasn’t in the mood for it so I let Jen order for both of us.I don’t know what got over me, but the urge to get some alcohol into my system seemed so necessary. I didn’t wait for the girls and took my drink and gulped it in one shot.It tasted different.“Hey, what did you order for me?” I asked Jen.“Ugh, that was my drink!” Cassidy scowled at me.I rolled my eyes and took another glass and gulped it down. The liquid tasted bitter. I didn’t pay heed to what they were talking to themselves about and went with the drinks. I know Jen would be mad at me for not waiting for them to halt their conversation, but I was too reckless to consider that. I needed the drinks.“Okay, I think it’s enough.” Cassidy stopped me from having the fourth one. What’s her problem now? “You’re going to pass out if you take his one and ruin my plan.”“What plan?” I asked her, irked by how she wasn’t eve

"I’m fine. Leave me alone.”Ethan let me be, but he had an unsatisfied look on his face. I pinched him on the elbow and grabbed his attention.“I want another beer,” I said.Ethan looked at me with confused eyes. “You don’t like Beer.”“You remember?” I asked, dramatically widening my eyes. Back in high school, Ethan always asked for some beer just so he could irritate me. I can’t believe he remembers it.He didn’t respond. “Why do want a beer? Are you really-”“Skylar, here.” Jen grabbed my attention. “You told me you wanted to have cranberry juice. Here.”I looked at her with confusion. “I didn’t want cranberry. I want a beer.”“No!” Lucy said while Jen looked like she was dying to kill me. “You wanted cranberry. Now drink it.”“Why are you girls forcing her? Seriously, she can have whatever she wants!” Jordan said.“No, she can’t have a beer. She’s just having a juice.” Stella said.“Babe, don’t get-” Ben tried to talk to her.“Skylar.” Ethan turned to me seriously. “Why are you ac

“Stand still.” Ethan whisper-yelled into my ears. He held me securely between his hands and slowly leaned me to the wall. I rested my head against the hard metal plate behind my head and clutched my hair to stop the hallucinogenic effect my head was having on my system.As soon as Ethan’s hands left my body, my knees bent and my butt collided with the ground beneath. I yelped in pain as Ethan left a frustrated sigh.“Remind me why I ever agreed to go with you.” He said as he knelt before me.“And remind me why I ever agreed to marry you.” I scowled on his face.We were standing outside his house, actually sitting now, as Ethan tried to open the door. He couldn’t multitask so he failed to manage me in his arm and opened the door with another.“Actually, you didn’t agree.” He gave me a bored smile and got up. I pulled my legs together and rested my chin on it while he fished the keys out of his pocket.When the door unlocked, he looked down at me. “You staying there for the night?”I gl

“Oh,” I mumbled. “Maybe it’s something else-”“Did you not feel anything when your skin tore or were you just trying to hide it from me?” He asked me, as he gently ran his hand around the wound. He pulled out a napkin from the table and cleaned the wound.“I think it happened when I fell. I honestly don’t remember anything because all my focus was on my butt that hurt like hell. I mean, the floor was so hard. ”His expression remained tight.“Get up.” He ordered me.He carried me up to his room, literally, and set me down on the bed. I watched as he loosened his shirt, as though trying to cool himself, and leaned over the desk to fetch something.He came back and sat before me with the first aid.“You’re overreacting,” I said. “It isn’t even that huge of a cut.”“Shut up.” He said.“Excuse me?” I said as I narrowed my eyes. “First of all, you carried me up, without my consent. Secondly, you’re touching me without asking for permission and now you’re asking me to-”“Thirdly, I wouldn’t

"I missed you guys," I said and hugged the first person I found, who ended up being Jen."I missed you guys, too." she said, wearing a face splitting grin. "how long has it been since all of us met? If I remember it correctly, it was almost four years ago."We were in touch all these years but it was never possible for us to meet all our friends together. It was definitely a reunion we had all been waiting for.Soon, the party started in full form. The guys grouped up near the bar to have drinks and the ladies found a table with the kids to gossip."Oh, look those morons gulping shots like they have no worry in the world." Jen scoffed beside me. "And here we are taking care of the children.""Cut them some slack, will you?" Lucy interjected. "They have pretty stressful job handling work, kids and their wives. Plus, they deserve it once in a while.""Well, hello miss newlywed." Stella said from across the table, "Lucky for you, Zac is the best out of all those dick heads. Although I'm

If there was one day in his calendar when Ethan let me do something for him without him returning the favour - then it was definitely his birthday.It was the day I had always looked forward to, more than anything, since it gave me an easy excuse to do things for him that were bound to make him incredibly happy.I recalled his birthday a few years ago when we flew to Paris to celebrate it. We were making love until midnight, and right when the clock struck twelve, I broke the news to him. According to him, that is still the most memorable and most cherishing moment of his life."We're pregnant," I said, my facing breaking into a huge grin.He was hovering over me, after an intense lovemaking session, and was just about to go for my lips when I uttered the words. I felt his entire body freeze under my palms as soon as he heard them and his eyes instantly shot up to mine."What?" he asked, as though he couldn't believe what he just heard.Only we knew why the news meant so much to us at

“Skylar, this outrageous! It’s been six months!” Ethan complained from the kitchen.“I told you I’m not going to let you touch me until Katie and Kevin are at least five years old.” I said, climbing up the stair to our room.The heard footsteps follow me from behind, more hastily than I mine. As I reached the last step, Ethan pulled me back by my waist and pinned me to the wall.I waited for the wall to hit my head and knock me down, but luckily for me, Ethan already anticipated it and placed his hand on my head.“I cannot wait for another four and a half years to have sex with my wife.” he affirmed. “You know you’re being unreasonable.”I frowned at him. “Hey, you’re not the one who carried twins in your womb. You’re not the one who almost died in labour for two whole days. And you’re not the one who pushed two very persistent babies out of your vagina just six months ago. Do you even know how that feels? Painful. And do you also know who caused that? You!”“Wait, now I’m supposed to

I fell onto my knees at that instant.She’s pregnant.Skylar is carrying my baby.We’re going to have a baby.Our baby.No.No.No.Skylar needs to survive.“No.,” I said. “You can’t let anything happen to her or the baby. Please.” I begged her. “Please save them.”“It’s a very risky job.” She explained. “She has a bullet inside her. And we don’t think a pregnant mother can survive it.”“No.. she can’t just leave me alone. We cannot let our baby die.”“We’re going to give your best. We’ll try to save both of them.” She said.****It has been five hours already. Everyone I knew was in the hospital.I decided to not disclose about the pregnancy to anyone. Although I don’t want to be a pessimist about it, I can’t help but be practical about the situation.I knew that the odds weren’t in my favour. And if just one of them survives through the operation, I don’t want Skylar to know we were ever going to have a baby.Owen thought that was extremely cruel of me to even think about it. But I

I widened my hands and kicked them from behind but the the person was too strong. I heard them asking me to calm down in an instant I turned around to look at them.It was all dark and I could barely spot the standing figure.“Skylar, it’s me.” Ethan’s voice rang in my ears.“Ethan..” I said breathless.The next second, I fell into his arms. He picked my face up and I felt him brush his lips against mine. Tears ran out of my eyes continuously as I clung onto him.“How are.. what are you doing- how did you get here?” I asked him.“I can’t tell you that right now. We need to go-”“She’s here!!!” I heard one of the men yell from behind us. “He’s with her!”I could barely take in some air before Ethan pulled my hand. I sensed him pull out a gun and point it to my head. I widened my eyes in disbelief. What is he up to?“Drop your gun, or she is dead.” I heard him.For a second I wonder if I was truly in the hands of my husband or not. Is he threatening to kill me?“Are you stupid? They kno

“How am I ever going to recognise them!”“They know you.” He said. “That shouldn’t be a problem. Once you go to them, you should obey whatever they say. You cannot-”“Fine.” I cut him off. “But how can I trust you?”“You simply will have to.”“That’s not going to be enough reason.” I said.“Well, I see you have something in mind. What is it?”I drew in some air. “I want you to send one of the girls to Stella. Only then, I’ll come.”“Bloody hell. That’s not-”“That’s the only way I can trust you.” I said. “I’m just asking for you to send one of them. You can still have one girl to use against me, don’t you? I will come for her.”There was a long pause.I gave him the time to think. I knew that what I was doing is not right. I knew I should be trusting Ethan but I can’t risk the twins’ life on this. What Ethan can’t find them soon enough? What if Jake hurts them? I could not let that happen.I also knew the twins needed each other at that time. They could be there for each other. But if

I was obliged to stay put inside our confined room for hours. Not a single message. Not a single phone call.Ethan kept himself busy with the search for the girls whilst keeping a bunch of men around our house.I highly doubted if I needed, since Jake would never pull an ordinary stunt like that. He is smart. He is capable of doing something that no one expects. Not even us, who know him better than anyone else.If Jake is really obsessed with the idea of pursuing me, he will have nothing to do with the girls. He will set them free, but it will have a price to pay.All I want is for Ethan and his men to find the girls before he hurts them and uses them against us. His actions will do no good for anyone. Not even to himself, at a point.I sighed and rested on the couch. Right then, I got a call.“Yes?” I answered into the phone.“Where are you?” Ethan asked.“I am still here in the place you locked me in.”“Can you elaborate?”“No.” I replied.“Skylar.” He called out my name in a warni

“I’m.. Ethan you don’t have to.. I.. uh.. just stop this freaking blood!” I said, uncertain about the words that were lingering at the tip of my tongue. i couldn’t comprehend my thoughts. A part of me was feeling terrible to see him like this. But a part of him was still upset that he hadn't believed it. It wasn't the first time it was happening. He chose to trust somebody else's words over mine and it cost us our relationship.He obviously feels more responsible for what happened. But this was bound to happen anyways. I would’ve been attacked at any cost. Jake and Luke are not the kind of people that would let me go without trying for it a million times. Our only regret is to have Mila and Evie pay for it.“Yes.. just a second.” He ducked down and grabbed something from one of the drawers. He poured some liquid into it and put it too my neck in a hurry.I winced in pain and pushed his hand away.“I.. I’m sorry, did it hurt?” He asked, panic evident in his eyes.Of course, it did!“No

“Get me the girls!” I said, pushing away a pair of hands coming my way.“Ma’am, we need to stop the blood-” one of the men that rushed into the parking lot right after the lights were turned on spoke in a hurry.“Where’s Ethan?” I asked him. “Call him right now! Tell him that the girls-”“What girls, ma’am?” The man asked. “We haven’t seen any-”I stroke my hand right across his face. His face was filled with bewilderment as he clutched the side of his cheek.“I’m not fucking hallucinating! Go check your security cameras and you will find two girls with me. Hoe the fuck does this mall work? Do you honestly not notice when a kidnapper comes in and takes away kids? What-”I cut myself off when I found someone coming my way. In an instant, Stella was before me.“Where are my girls?” Stella asked, looking around. “Where are they? Are they in the car?”“Stella, you need to listen to me. The girls.. The girls aren’t here.” I said in a low voice.“What do you mean they’re not here?” She aske
