Hating the Billionaire Heir Chapter One Hundred Thirty
Who knew I would confess my feelings to Roman on a suburban street in Connecticut eating barbecue kebab in a local food stand? Life sure is unpredictable. But even now, there is still one thing that troubles me. One thing that I need clarity on if not, we will soon be right back to where we were, fighting. And I don’t want that so I speak up. “Roman…” I start and I see him become more focused donning on a serious expression. “There is something that has bothered me and I haven’t told you about it” I close and toss the half eaten plate of kebab in the rubbish bin. It’s way past sunset now and we should be on our way to the hotel before curfew but I don’t need a reason to postphone this conversation I’m about to have with him. It is way too important. “Talk to me, Cookie” Roman urges me on. I nod before saying, “I’ve met your dad” Roman gives me a confused look at first, “Yeah… I assumed you could’ve on the night of my birthday party although it is sad that I wasn’t abl

It is after ten pm at night when Roman and I finally get to the hotel. There are no students looming around and I just know it is because the curfew has kicked in. “Roman, it’s after curfew already. Don’t you think we will get in trouble if any of the staffs find us coming in now?” I ask him, worry filling my tone. Roman glances around as we board the elevator to take us to our floor. He looks absolutely unbothered, he never is but I am. I’m not used to breaking the rules. “It’s fine, don’t worry about it” Roman responds in a cool tone. Okay. I think about how Cassie and Robyn must be so worried about me by now, they might’ve even tried to call my phone but I doubt the boy that stole it would have answered and informed them that the phone had gotten a new owner. A frustrated tone leaves my chest as we step out of the elevator causing Roman to glance at me. “What is wrong?” He asks me. Whenever I express so much as a tiny bit of displeasure he wants to be informed of it. It is

The next day I get ready for our class tour of the Connecticut museum in sluggish movements and with sleepy eyes. By the time I had been done giving Cassie the run down of the day last night, from the coffee shop, exchanging numbers with the barrister, Matt. To getting mugged, nearly gotten run over by a speeding vehicle, Roman saving my life to us having the best heart to heart and making up… it was three AM. We had to wake up by six AM so we could only get three hours of sleep hence the sluggishness. I get dressed in a cute jumpsuit and put my hair in a sleek ponytail paired with sneakers as my outfit for the day. It is a few minutes after eight AM when we leave our hotel room in a rush because a general email is sent to everyone by Mr Kevin that the last person to show up in the hall where we are meeting, will be in trouble. When we get to the hall, we see Robyn standing ahead and leaning by the wall. Facing her with their backs to us are three guys I just can tell it’s Roman,

It has been two weeks since our school trip to Connecticut and since Roman and I got back together. It has also been two weeks of spending time with him, my family and friends as well but mostly with him. Everything has been so perfect, sometimes I feel like I’m just waiting for the other shoe to drop, for something to go wrong. I’ve relayed my fears to Roman because we really are in the no secret between us phase of our relationship, a phase I hope we never leave, and Roman did so well in putting the sad thoughts out of my mind by assuring me he won’t let anything or anyone come between us and he won’t let anyone hurt me as well. I have also been scarcely going to Roman’s house. I am not yet ready to face his father. It pisses Roman off that I’ve told him to give me time before we broach the topic of getting his father to apologize to me. I only go to his house whenever his father is away on a trip and I never stay over no matter how much Roman begs me to, it only aggravates

“We are in deep trouble, Roman” I tell Roman. I find a bit of reprieve from whatever is coming knowing that I won’t be facing mom alone, if I would be getting a scolding, I know Roman will get one as well, I just hope it won’t be worse than a scolding. Mom can be unpredictable. “Let’s dress up and go downstairs before she loses her patience from waiting” I speak again, hurrying to my closet. Roman doesn’t move and I turn back to him. “Roman?” I call out to get his attention. He jerks as if he forgot I was in the room with him. He hadn’t moved or said a word since mom appeared. Finally he says, “Do you think she’ll be angry if I escape through your window?” He winces. He wants to leave me to deal with this alone? Like hell no. I smile a dangerous smile at him, “If you think my mom is what you’ll have to worry about if you leave me here to deal with her alone, consider yourself single from his moment” I warn him threateningly. Instantly, Roman recovers his confidence. He starts p

On thanksgiving day, my mom had to move the dinner she had fixed for 6 pm into a late lunch instead. This morning the hospital had gotten swarmed with patients and so she was told she would have to come in for an all night shift. I was tasked with informing everyone about the change in schedule and apologizing for any inconvenience. No one took it to heart however mom keeps feeling like she has disappointed my friends. “They don’t mind, mom” I reassure her once more as I slice the onions and garlic for the turkey dressing. She shakes her head, “I would’ve refused the shift if I could but they need all hands on deck at the hospital tonight” She explains again. I don’t know how else to reassure her so I just give her a smile and focus on preparing the best roasted turkey ever made. ***When we are done preparing the food for our thanksgiving dinner- now lunch, I leave the kitchen to my room to go take a shower and get dressed before our guests start arriving. Earlier I had call

I shake my head in confusion, “I have no idea” I pick up my phone and reply the text message.Me: Who is this please?I ignore Roman who I know is looking into my phone as I reply and is reading my response. I don’t call him out for his invasion of privacy mainly because I’m not even trying to hide it from him. No secrets between us remember?I take another spoon of my dessert as a response comes in. Unknown: I’m hurt pretty girl, you’ve forgotten me this easily? It’s Matt, remember?Matt? Who is Matt? I think but can’t fathom who this could be. “Who is Matt?” Roman asks me in a whisper, he doesn’t sound angry or anything just curious.“I really don’t know-“ I start to answer stop short when I do remember. “Oh… Matt” I say, with clarity now. I see the silent question in Roman’s blank face. I grin because I really did forget Matt. I don’t respond to his text right now but lock my phone. I will send him a reply after we are done eating, it is rude to be on one’s phone at a publi

As I have been instructed, I give Roman the directions, slowly, until we finally arrive at where I’ve planned. Rixon Arcade and Games Center. “We are here” I inform Roman and then direct him to park. “You can pull over here-“ He cuts me off, “I know, Cookie. You’re too bossy”I chuckle, “You asked me to give you directions” I tell him, grinning. He huffs out an annoyed breath, “Yeah. I asked you to give me the directions to wherever this is, not directions on how to drive and park my own car” He mutters the complain under his breath but I still hear it clearly. At least he is not complaining about the venue of our date which is nearly always a given with him, so that’s a small mercy I’ll take. We both step out of the car and close our doors. “Why are you so bothered by me giving you directions, you’re being so… pissy” I note, narrowing my eyes at him. Usually Roman is a pretty easy going guy but he develops a prickly and irritated behavior like a little boy whenever I get

Roman’s POVI have decided to have the talk with my father today. No more postponing, no more hesitating. I’m damn tired of not being able to bring my girl over to my house because she is afraid of my father.I walk over to my father’s office and knock once, then twice. I’ll knock a million times until he lets me in, I know he is inside.“Come in, son” I hear him call out.I chuckle as I twist the handle and step in. He knows it was me just because no one else would ever interrupt him in his office. No one but me.My father sits behind his expensive mahogany desk in his huge as hell office. I hardly come here unless when absolutely necessary, like today. It reminds me of my future, that one day I will likely become a workaholic like him, spending nearly every hour, alone and working.“Father” I say in greeting. I always call him father, never dad for many years and we’re both used to it now.He points at the chair in front of his desk for me to take a seat and I do.I don’t waste a mom

CHAPTERRoman’s POVI’m on my way to the cafeteria after class to meet up with Lindsey when one of the janitors walks up to me and tells me that my girlfriend instructed him to find me and tell me to come help her out in the library because she is not feeling well.I give him a look of suspicion but consider his words, although I texted Lindsey to meet me at the cafeteria after her test she never responded. While I had concluded it was because she was in class it could be something else.Maybe something went wrong and she went to the library instead.I’m filled with worry that I don’t interrogate the janitor further but instead take a different turn to lead me to the library.When I get to the library, I realize I don’t even know exactly where Lindsey is at because the library is so huge. I consider calling her to ask but decide to check the literature section first, she is likely to be there because it is her favorite section in the library.I get there and in fact there is a girl th

Lindsey’s POVI am walking to the cafeteria alone after writing one of the most difficult tests I’ve ever written when Collins approaches me.“Hey pretty” He greets with his signature boyish smile.I smile back but my smile is a bit restrained. I know how Roman feels about Collins and I together, even though I don’t know why as I consider Collins a good friend, but I don’t want to do anything that’ll annoy Roman so I keep my distance.“Hey Collins” I respond and he comes and stands in front of me.“I need your help with something” He tells me.I’m confused as I don’t know what I could possibly help him with but I nod, urging him to go ahead and ask.He does, “I’ve been searching for an important textbook in the library for a while now and I’ve not been able to find it, can you come and help me check?”What? I give him a look of confusion. Is he joking? He must be. I laugh a bit just in case then reply, “There are librarians in the library, Collins” I mention the obvious.He grins but

On Monday after Christmas break, I drive my new new car to school. For the first time in months, I’m alone in a car. I’m driving myself rather than getting driven around like an invalid and it’s all thanks to Roman.Just like he had told me, he spoke to my mom and yesterday she even took me to shop for car accessories for my new car. Since I no longer have to worry about her feeling some type of way about Roman buying me a car, I enjoy the feeling of driving the sleekest car I have ever been in, except for Roman’s cars.When I get to school, I park my car and from the tinted glass of the windshield and windows, I can already see the students of Rixon High surrounding me, wondering who is in the car. Nearly everyone knows what everyone drives and so, a brand new expensive car such as this is bound to draw some attention.I should’ve made Roman come with me for the first day but I’m a big girl and I thought I could handle all the looks and whispers on my own.When I open my door and exi

My hand holding my phone shakes as I find Roman’s contact to call him. As my finger rests about an inch away from dialing Roman, I hesitate.I don’t know how to do it, not call him but tell him I’m refusing his gift. Even though I told mom that I’m not rejecting the gift because of her, I think I was lying. A brand new Mercedes Benz car that looks like that must cost a lot, too much. But, the thought of finally owning my own car after always having to beg Leo and ask Cassie for rides all the time feels so good. Sadly I can’t keep it. I harden my mind and call Roman. He answers on the first ring as if he has been waiting for me to call. “Do you like your car?” Is the first thing he says to me. He sounds so anxious like he can’t wait for my answer and hopes I say yes. “I… I do” I answer after a moment of hesitation. I hear Roman breath out with relief. “Thank God. I was getting worried that you didn’t like it, babe” My throat hurts as I force out the words I know he wouldn’t li

Lindsey’s POVOn the morning of my birthday, I wake up feeling all sorts of special. The night before, I had gotten both Christmas and birthday gifts from my mom, Leo and my friends. Leo had gotten his as well but I’m already used to sharing my birthdays with him. I gave him his gift as well. Last night, after I had unwrapped all my gifts, Roman had taken me out to dinner and while he didn’t say specifically that he was taking me out because of my birthday, I assume it was my birthday present. I loved it because the food was awesome and the company, his presence, was even better. I rise from my bed and do a little twirling on the floor, I’m just so happy. My mom yells my name from downstairs and when I quickly rush down, I see mine and Leo’s birthday cake ready with candles on the dinning table.I smile at the sight. It has always been a tradition for as long as I can remember. Mom always bakes a blue and a pink cake for Leo and I for our birthdays, the pink one for me and the blu

I turn to my cousin with a frustrated and doubt filled look. Damon raises an eyebrow at my facial expression. “Do you want my help or not?” I grunt, “Yeah I do. What type of car do you think I should get for her?” I ask him hopelessly. Damon shrugs, “A lambo or something” He replies. My jaw drops in shock, “A Lamborghini? Are you insane!?” My cousin snorts, “Don’t tell me you think it’s too expensive, she is your girlfriend whom I know you love so don’t tell me you’re deciding to be stingy with her gift” I ignore him saying I’m in love with Lindsey, I am but I’ve never told him or anyone, I haven’t even said the word to Lindsey and I should, I plan to tell her on her birthday, but that is not the point of my conversation with Damon right now. A lambo? I’m groan out, “Please where is Cassie and Robyn? I need them back.” I shake my head in exhaustion. Damon gives me a glare for doubting the reasonability of his idea which is an absolutely ridiculous idea. “Call Cassie and ask h

Roman’s POVIt is a few days to Christmas and even fewer to Lindsey’s eighteenth birthday. I have been in a bind all week contemplating a birthday gift for her. I have even brought in Damon, Robyn and Cassie to help me out with ideas and while they have tried by presenting me with numerous options, I’m not satisfied. I’m not very good at gift giving. Having so much money usually means I buy the most expensive things for my friends and family as gifts, but with Lindsey I can not exercise the same level of indifference or carefree attitude. I want to get her a birthday gift that… has meaning. Being with Lindsey Jordan has changed me. She has shown me that money isn’t everything, I mean I always knew that but now I have lived it. The picnic date she had organized for me the night before my birthday as my birthday gift sure didn’t cost anything close to a thousand dollars if I were to wager a guess, but I wasn’t lying when I told her it was the best birthday gift I’ve ever gotten.
