In love with a heartless billionaire ~203~
~Mirabelle~"Hey mama." She pressed a kiss to my cheek. She had just walked in and greeted me when she noticed the letters scattered on the floor."You betrayed me.""Mom, please--""All this time! Natasha, all this time! You've been writing to your father, behind my back! How could you betray me like this? And what's the silly pen name, Tan?" I asked her, she lowered her head, refusing to meet my gaze. "You had your name spelt backwards, didn't you? Nat, Tan, wasn't it? You thought I wouldn't find out, didn't you? You thought you would successfully push through with your plans and then what? What was the essence of you writing those letters to your father? What? So you could tell him one day that you're his daughter?!""Mama, it's not like that--""Then it's like what? What were you thinking huh? You don't think your father is smart? And that one day, he'd discover you out?" I snorted. "You're so silly, you know that, Natasha?""No mom. You're the one who's silly. All these years, yo

~Mirabelle~She nudged herself into his arms.I froze.For a moment, I thought she was going to let out our secret and silently prayed, silently hoped she wouldn't betray me."Um," she got out of Mariano who was as well shocked by the little girl's action. "I'm sorry, I just got carried away.....I thought you were my father. I apologize." She said to him but Mariano looked like he hadn't heard her because he was too busy staring at her face."Um...I'm sorry, about Tan, I--I don't know anyone that goes by that name, sorry." She said and looked away when she noticed he had been staring too much."Have we met before, miss?" To my surprise, he asked her. "You look...very familiar. We've met before, haven't we?"Natasha shook her head shyly. "I'm sorry, I don't think we have. Um, I have to go now--" she was about to close the door finally but he put his leg in between, stopping her. "Can I come in?""Um, sorry but you can't. My mother's going to be really mad--""Then a coffee, perhaps. I

~Mirabelle~She blinked sleep out of her eyes and got up from the floor."I must have fallen asleep here. What time is it?""7:48am.""Oh gosh. I'm so going to be late for school." She was about to turn and head out when I said,"You had a pretty nice chat with your dad yesterday."She stilled."I don't know, for once I admit, I like seeing you two together."A small smile spread across her face. "Me too. I didn't see him from afar this time, this time, I saw him face to face. And I even made coffee for him, I sat close to him and I talked to him about what was bothering me. It felt too good to be true."I nodded. "Yeah it was. Plus, the necklace looked good on him too.""Yeah, it was. Guessed what he said was it too.""Mama--""No, it's okay. I mean I'm not going to just sit put and watch him say those hurtful things to me--""Mama--""I've made my decision. We're leaving.""Mom!"I turned around and started for my room, not to my surprise, she followed. "Mama--""He's found us, Nata

~Mariano~After about an hour of touring round New Zealand with the Bugatti la voiture noire, we had made a stop at the beach. Then after that, we made a dropped by the mall. I made her shop for several things and for a moment, I never wanted it to end. There was a side of me that loved seeing a smile on her face, she reminded me so much of her and so we just continued shopping and shopping and shopping till the car was entirely filled up.After that, we dropped by a restaurant and had dinner."Wow, this is definitely the best day of my entire life!" She exclaimed excitedly with food in her mouth. "I don't just want this day to end!" The words spilled out before she had the chance to stop herself."You don't?""You don't?"She hesitated and after a moment, she slowly nodded."Me too." I admitted softly."Um, Natasha, there's something I have to tell you.""What is it?""I'll be leaving tomorrow."All of a sudden, the excitement on her face was completely drained. "What?""While we wer

~Mariano~"I'm sorry, it's just urgent matters. I can't leave tomorrow, I'm so sorry. Yes, thank you."With that I ended the call and dug my fingers through my hair."Any news about Tan? Sorry, Natasha?" I asked Ken who had just walked in."Man, how are you so sure that Tan and Nat are the same person?"I handed him the letter. He pulled out out one of Tan's letters from his pockets and inspected it."Fuck it's the same.""And then you said you saw your dead wife?""Life and direct, man. I know you wouldn't believe me but I'm sure she was the one I saw driving. I'd recognize Mira even from a glance away. So yeah, I know it's her. But then again, I'm not so sure.""Exactly. You could be mistaken. But then again, I'm thinking you weren't.""What do you mean by that?"He handed me the file in his grasp.Reluctantly, I took it. Opened it. And then slowly, read through it.No way."Natasha Del Valle?""Yes. That's her full name. DV."Why didn't I think of this earlier? Natasha was also bea

~Mirabelle~"And where on earth do you think you're going to?"I shifted back as he made his predatory movements toward me, looking more intimidating than ever.He stood there a moment, a very long one, staring at me, almost like he couldn't believe I was real."All these years...all this time...who would have thought? That I'd still have the nerve to spit out your name?" He snorted. "How ironic, isn't it?"I didn't want to respond to him and so I just turned back to him."Don't!" He roared. "...you dare... turn your back on me." He bit out with clenched teeth."And what on earth do you think you can do to me if I do?""A whole lot.. Ms. Kenton, a whole fucking lot. You have no idea how hard I want to punish you right now. Eight years! Eight years, Ms. Kenton! It took you eight good years to completely ruin me and wreck my world into pieces! And all for what? Just because you're scared?! You're scared?! Fine! You're scared and so you took my baby and left. But didn't you think that yo

~Genevieve~He pulled out and I crumbled to the floor just as he did the same. I sighed, still unable to register the fact that this had just happened. We actually had sex in a dressing room, where outside my fiance was waiting for me.The moment I regained my strength, I straightened my gown, I got up to leave but then I returned back when I saw Ryder patrolling the dressing room, probably searching for me."What is it?" Mason asked me when he saw the look on my face."Ryder.""Shit." He got up as well as stepped forward to spy. I was sure the workers didn't know that there was a secret door somewhere inside the dressing room otherwise, we would have been caught by now."What do we do? I don't want us to get caught, Mason." I murmured, barely recognizing my own voice."Why? Is it a bad thing if we're seen together? Why does it bother so much if he sees you with me? Tell me, Gen, what are you so afraid of? Are you afraid of him?""Why, does it look like I'm scared of anyone? I just do

~Genevieve~"I can't take anymore....." I moaned out helplessly as he grabbed my hair from behind, pounding into me relentlessly."Shh. You can." He whispered into my ear, his strokes slowing down. "Come for me, Genevieve, come for me."And I did. I exploded around him and no sooner than five minutes that I had done so, he climaxed, pulled out of me and thrashed the condom.I collapsed on the bed and sighed, unable to feel my legs. "I can't believe I'm cheating on Ryder." I said, suddenly realizing what I had done. "This shouldn't be happening, for fucks sake, I'm getting married next week."Mason leaned closer and caressed my hair. "What happens when you finally get married? Will that be the end of us?"I met his intense gaze. He was staring at me with so much love in his eyes that I couldn't help thinking again if choosing Ryder was a mistake."I have to go."With that I got up from the bed and walked to the bathroom to freshen up.~Mom was discussing with my wedding planner, Ms. C

*One year later*~Genevieve~"Hey. You ready?"Mason asked me as he walked into the room."Do I look okay in this dress?" I said, referring to the floral gown I was wearing. "I feel... really heavy, you know. I think this baby is using my energy to do kicks, don't you think?" I asked him, placing my hand over my eight months and two weeks old belly.Mason smiled and walked over to me. "You look beautiful, darling. And besides, I'm always here to lend you my strength whenever you feel too tired to carry our little Gael." He knelt before my bump and caressed it over the skimpy dress I was wearing. "Hey buddy, don't give mommy a hard time, okay? We know you wanna come out so badly but patience, little buddy, patience." He looked up at me and I smiled. Then he got up and closed his mouth over mine. "I love you, Genevieve Kenton King."I smiled as I wrapped my arms around him. "I love you too.""Now come on. Before we arrive late for your dad's birthday dinner." He held my hand as walked o

~Genevieve~Just like that. I couldn't believe it. She was gone.Gone forever. We weren't going to see her ever again.Some of the soldiers that had ran into the smoke, came out few minutes later with Gonzalez men. One was half-dead, the other was injured but very much alive. They put them both in the van and walked around to see dad. He was saying something in low tune to dad when another set of military men walked out of the already burnt and collapsed building with a burnt, unrecognizable body that seemed to have ropes attached to it. A body that was perhaps tied. Then I recalled Mirabelle being tied up before Ryder threw me out."No! My Mira...." Mom was already shaking in tears as they placed the body on a stretcher. Dad dropped to the ground in tears, mom was wailing profusely, Mariano remained stiff and unable to move, Mason had tears rolling down his eyes...none of us could even touch the body. It was Natasha who mustered up the courage to run to where the body was and embrace

~Mirabelle~"What are we going to do? He's going to kill her!" Mason exclaimed out of frustration as he plopped down on the couch, running his fingers through his hair. Mom has been trying to calm him down ever since. But it seems all her words of assurance were falling on deaf ears."My men are searching the entire city as we speak." Dad who had been on the phone came back few minutes later to the living room and said. "They couldn't have gone far. We'll get them in no time.""Hey," Mariano knelt in front of me and places his hand on lap. "Are you alright?"I shook my head."Belle, listen to me, this is not your fault.."I was trying to hold back my tears. "Yes, it is.""No, it's not. Gonzalez has been planning his escape from prison for a long time now. And it so happened to fall on the same time period of your return so none of this is your fault, okay?""Grandpa, are you going to give me to him? The bad guy?" Natasha who was in mom's arms asked Kurt who had been restless."Of cour

~Mirabelle~"Mama, where are we? What is this place?" Natasha asked me as Mariano pulled the car to a stop. I got out and so did Natasha, who looked inquisitive, looking around the place."Hello, Natasha."She turned to stare at the people standing few metres away, her whole face lightening up. "Grandma! Grandpa!"In a blink of eye, she was running into dad's open arms. "My lil baby. She looks just you, Mariano." Dad said to Mariano who was standing beside me as he ruffled her hair playfully, picking her up from the floor."I'm quite heavy, you know. Mama feeds me with good stuff." Natasha said jokingly."Well then, it's a good thing I have quite the strength then." Dad smiled as we walked into the house."Camilla," I greeted Camilla who was standing with the other servants. "I see you're still here." I said, moving into her arms. "Thank you.""Always, Mirabelle, always." She responded and we pulled away. "I'll make coffee and some toast."I nodded and she walked away. "It feels good

~Genevieve~He wasn't in bed with me when I woke up.I got up, stretched and slipped on his shirt. Then I got up and went on a mission to go look for him.I heard noise coming from kitchen area and do I just decided to follow my instincts. To my surprise, he was standing in front of the cooker, flipping something in a pan, shirtless in an apron and in a pair of sweatpants. He turned around and our gaze met."Hey. Good morning."I smiled as I made my way toward him. "Good morning. You're up early.""Yeah, I got up to make breakfast. Come on, have a seat. Breakfast is ready."I did as he told me and sat put as he served me. Breakfast was bacon, scrambled eggs, pancakes and maple syrup.As I ate, I noticed he was stealing glances at me. "What?""You're very beautiful, Gen. Very very."I snorted, hoping that was a joke. "I'm sure I look like a mess.""You look breathtaking."I met his gaze and he smiled. Then he got up from where he sat and walked around to where I was, then to my surpris

~Mirabelle~A lot of people were hovering over me when I woke up. Mom, Mariano, two women, a man, Natasha...."Natasha." I called out gently and she was the first to notice as she ran into my outstretched arms."Mama! Mama, you scared the hell out of us all." She was already crying as I brushed the tears away from her face. "Mama, we were so worried...I was so worried. Promise that you won't ever make us worry like that again."I smiled and pulled her close, her head was resting gently on my chest. "I'm fine, sweetie. I'm just...scared." I admitted softly."But why are you scared, mama? We are here for you, remember? Don't be scared, okay? Daddy is here for you. I am here for you. Grandma is here for you. Don't ever feel scared, okay? You're my best friend. I wouldn't know what I'd do if anything were to happen to you. I can't ever live without you, mama."I couldn't help chuckling as I wrapped my arm tightly over her. "Oh my sweet little red haired baby. I love you so much my darling

~Mirabelle~I stood there and watched as Genevieve expressed how she felt about Mason to Ryder. Ryder on the other seemed to be furious but he looked as if he was holding back from lashing out all on his anger on Genevieve. The moment he walked out, I decided to stay for a while. This was bad. I should be with her right now. She had just made a life-changing decision that would probably require a shoulder to lean on and here I was, hiding behind the wall.All of a sudden, she stood up. She glanced at the mirror and then stopped. But just before she could turn around, a hand grasped mine, pulling me into the shadows."What on earth do you think you're doing?""Mariano, she's my sister. I should be in there with her right now. I should--""Then what's stopping you?"I stared into his eyes."Go on. Go to her. She's your sister, right? She needs you. You should be with her right now. So why are you here?""I--I don't think that's a very good idea. She's down right now, I can't afford to a

~Mirabelle~The congregation was filled to the brim. The people present were mostly friends, elites, actresses, musicians, business elites and government officials from all over the world. From where I was seated, I could see Mariano, my friends, Gabriel and even mom. Natasha and I were both at the back row. We didn't want to draw much attention so we just hid there.Then there was Ryder at the altar, waiting like the gentleman he was. Although, there was something about Ryder. Something off about him, he didn't seem quite the man for Genevieve anymore.And then, there was the bride. Walking towards the altar with dad's arm strapped to hers. On getting to the front row, she quickly hugged mom and Gabriel before proceeding to kneel in front of the altar with her soon to be husband. After a short prayer, they were back on their feet as they proceeded to the ring part and then the exchanging of vows.Well, now it was time to declare them husband and wife."If anyone have reason why these

~Mirabelle~I was trying out the dresses, mom had brought earlier for Gen's wedding tomorrow. There was a silver splayed gown with emeralds, a beautiful black straight one with deep cleavage curve and split up the right thigh and a pink short one with diamonds stashed all over. According to her, the theme of the wedding was black and pink, if I wanted to fit in to be noticed, I'd wear pink but if I wanted to remain anonymous and hidden, I'd wear black.At first I didn't want to go. Mom and Mariano were the only ones who knew about my existence. Mariano had argued with mom about telling dad about me but she had slid him off, telling him the consequences that would result from my dad abruptly finding out about my existence. According to her, she would wine and dine him after Gen's wedding then tell him about me. As for now, I still have to remain hidden and try as much as possible to apply heavy makeups contrary to my skin tone, wear sunglasses and colored wigs. That way, they would nev
