MR. BILLIONAIRE WANTS HER LOVE BACK 27
CHAPTER 27RUBY’S POVDax didn’t say a single word to me all through the drive home and when Simon finally arrived at my driveway, I moved to get out of the car and Dax held my hand. I looked at him and he stared at me with pleading eyes without saying anything.Still feeling numb and finding it hard to trust him at the moment, I pulled my hand out of his without uttering a word and opened the door then I got out and walked toward my porch with shaky legs and a subsiding panic attack.I got to the front door before Simon drove into their driveway and that was when the dam broke. The tears fell in torrent and I heaved hard while a hole caved its way in my heart and the numbness faded. Even after dumping me, everything Dax did still hurt me.Why did it have to happen on a night that I was on a date with him? Why did it have to be Dax? Why him all the time? I fell to my knees and clutched onto my chest in an attempt to ease the ache I felt but nothing happened and it even hurt more pain

CHAPTER 28RUBY’S POVIt was still so early in the morning and my phone was ringing out loud nonstop. I reached for it with sleepy eyes and without looking at the caller ID, I picked the call up and placed it against my ear.“Hello?” I spoke with a croaky voice and I heard a snicker from the other side.“Why are there so many pictures of you and Dax splashed across so many media outlets and I haven't heard anything from you yet, Ruby? Were you both on a date?” Dennis’s voice came through and what he just said woke me up immediately and I quickly sat up in bed.“What? Wait a minute. What pictures are you talking about?” I asked him while trying to make sense of what he just said and he chuckled.“Do you mean you have no idea that there are pictures of you and Dax all over the internet? Aren’t you both back together already? Don’t mess this deal up for me, Ruby” he fired more questions that made me even more confused and I got down from my bed.“You know what, Dennis? Why don’t I call yo

CHAPTER 29RUBY’S POV“Are you alright? I came to check up on you” Dax asked me once I opened the door and our eyes met and I nodded in response before letting him and Simon in. Then I walked over to a chair and sat down before urging them to sit too.They did and we all remained silent for a while as I avoided Dax’s stare. It felt like he was looking into my soul and it felt weird to have him worry about me. I had been fine for eight years without him so I didn’t want his worry now. He could keep it to himself.“Ruby, I…” he was about to speak when I held my hand up to stop him and he ceased talking.“I know what you’re about to talk about but Sally is home and I don’t want her to know anything about what is going on. She’s too young so we can talk after she’s gone to school” I told him and he understood immediately so he nodded and sat back in the chair he occupied.I watched him as he shifted his hips and left his legs apart while he sat and I felt my throat go dry as I ogled him s

CHAPTER 30RUBY’S POVSally finally left for school after I was able to stop her from talking about Dax liking me but Dax still had a smile on his face even after she was gone. I could tell he was thinking about what Sally said and I hoped he wouldn't question me about it.Breakfast was finally ready and we all sat at the dining table to eat in silence but I could still sense the chemistry flowing between Clarissa and Simon whenever they spoke, made eye contact, or mistakenly brushed hands when they reached for something on the table.So I used them as a means of distraction to ignore Dax who was right beside me because I knew that once this breakfast was over, we were going to talk about the unavoidable and we were either going to find a solution or end up fighting.I had a feeling that we would most likely end up fighting considering the question I had in mind for Dax but who knew? Maybe he wouldn’t fight with me as I expected. We finished eating and I packed the dirty dishes along

CHAPTER 313RD POVClarissa and Simon sat in silence in the living room while they listened to Ruby and Dax go at each other, their voices and their temper evident in the tone they used to speak to each other.Simon stirred in his chair while Clarissa sighed as she typed away on the laptop she placed on her thighs and she looked up to glance at Simon just at the same time he did.They quickly looked away from each other before she chuckled to herself and looked back at him.“This is awkward” she commented and he nodded in agreement. It was weird enough having to listen to Ruby and Dax argue but sitting in silence was unbearable. He had to strike up a conversation. “So what are you up to? I noticed you've been typing away with top concentration so it must be something serious” he asked curiously and he watched her smile while she shrugged.“nothing serious. Just writing up a final list of the stuff and Ingredients I'll need for the cafe I'm about to open” she replied and he leaned for

CHAPTER 32DAX’S POVFuming hard as I walked out of Ruby’s house with Simon on my trail, my blood boiled with anger, I itched to smash my fist into something and relish in the pain it would bring to my knuckles but at the same time, I wanted to walk back in and tell Ruby that I would never do such a thing to her again.I was mad and disappointed though, at the fact that Ruby suspected me all along even after I told her I could never do such. It hurt to know she didn't trust me or whatever I said but then I couldn't blame her either.I hurt her, ruined her reputation in New York, and made her start her life all over in a new country where she knew no one except Clarissa. So I wouldn't exactly put it all on her if she didn't trust me yet. I caused it all and I guessed it was time for me to pay back, no matter how infuriating some situations may be.I walked into my house and Simon closed the door gently while I stormed over to the bar and blindly poured myself a drink to quench the burn

CHAPTER 33RUBY’S POVOnce Dax was gone, Clarissa rushed in to meet me where I sat after my legs were beginning to fail me and she knelt before me with a look of concern etched on her face.“Are you alright, Ruby? You don’t look too good” she asked softly and I looked at her in silence, unable to utter a word in response.“Dax said he loves me,” I said in a state of confusion as I had a whirlwind of thoughts collide against each other in my head and she gave a nonchalant shrug.“He says all the time,'' she replied but I shook my head as I disagreed with her.“It was very different this time, Clarissa. It felt different and I don't know why I'm thinking too much about it when I don't even feel the same way for him” I told her and she stared at me in silence.“Are you sure you don't feel the same way, Ruby?” she asked and I wasn't able to give a reply as her words rang bells of alarm in my head and fear filled my heart.Was I beginning to fall for Dax already? Or did I just never get ov

CHAPTER 34RUBY’S POVThe dancers began to murmur among each other as their surprise skyrocketed and I stared at Dax, trying my best to figure him out and why he was doing this but he was giving nothing away.He still stared back at me, his hands tucked into his pockets and his eyes held amusement in their depths while he watched me.Losing my temper, I stormed toward him and pulled his hand out of his pocket then I held it and without a word, I pulled him out of the office to follow me.I could hear the dancers gasping and murmuring even louder. I knew they were going to make assumptions, false accusations, and even try to diminish my image out of jealousy but it was all nothing compared to my life eight years ago so I didn't care, I could survive this.I was there to work for a living, not to make friends with fake ass women.I stopped walking once I got to my dressing room, then I opened the door and pulled Dax in along with me before slamming the door shut and facing him.He didn'

RUBY'S POV It was quite a sunny day. A perfect weather for a perfect wedding and I couldn't stop grinning to myself as I stared into the mirror before me, marveling at my look after my makeup was done and I was dressed in my wedding gown. “Are you ready for your big day, dear bride?” Clarissa, who was my chief bridesmaid asked me as she walked into the room along with Patricia, Cecelia, Sid and Michael as they were all in my bridal train.“You bet I am” I replied excitedly and they all hugged me before accompanying me to the altar where Dax waited for me.Half of New York was present because they were all excited to watch the epic wedding between me and Dax since our breakup eight years ago made it to the headlines.I couldn't take my eyes off Dax as he stood alongside his groomsman, Simon, and neither could he and when the officiator asked us to say our vows, our eyes still remained locked until we sealed the marriage with a kiss and a ring each and we became husband and wife.Eve

CHAPTER 135DAX'S POV After Ruby left the hospital in a fit of rage, I felt uneasy. Shebqas right about everything though. We both kept secrets from each other and were both angry but it wouldn't lead anywhere if we didn't calm down and talk it out.I knew immediately that I had to see her and speak to her but I was admitted under close care and watch so I turned to Simon who had been silent ever since the huge argument between me and Ruby happened. “I need you to check on Ruby for me. I don't know what she's thinking but I want to know if she's at the resort” I told him and he nodded before standing up to leave but then he paused by the door and looked back at me.“Ruby wasn't lying, Dax. She didn't know about Dennis’s plan to shoot you and she also wasn't lying about loving you and wanting you alive for her and Sally's sake. You know I'm good at reading people” He said and I nodded because I was also great at reading people and I knew she wasn't lying about anything from the mome

CHAPTER 134RUBY'S POV It was already dark by the time I arrived in Denmark but my blood was still sizzling with anger and all I wanted to do was see Dennis immediately. So I boarded a cab, gave the driver the gallery's address as my next stop and called Dennis. “We need to talk. Face to face, right now” I snapped at him once he picked up my call and he chuckled over the phone.“I was expecting this ever since I found out that Dax eventually knew everything. What a waste of a bullet” he said and I took a deep breath to keep my emotion under control because he was obviously testing me with his insensitive remarks.“Meet me at this place. I'm sending the address to you now and I'll be waiting. You'd better not be late or Dax will come find me when he realizes I'm in not in Greece with him anymore and I'm sure you don't want to get cornered by the man you almost killed” I made sure to let him know I wasn't joking around and I heard him groan over the phone. He was pissed and it felt g

CHAPTER 133RUBY'S POV Humming to myself as I made my way to the room where Dax was admitted along with a paper bag filled with lunch I bought from a restaurant for both of us, I hoped he would wake up to eat with me because I missed him and missed eating with him.I opened the door when I got to the room and immediately I walked in, I noticed the atmosphere was different. Dax was awake and seated up in bed and I was about to hug him but noticed he was staring at me like he didn't recognize me. I frowned because I didn't know why he would be watching me with such foreign eyes.I looked at Simon, hoping he would tell me what was happening but he also stared at me the same way and I wondered again, what on earth was happening and why they were both staring at me like that.“Is something wrong? Did something happen?” I asked out loud when they wouldn’t say anything and Dax placed a phone on the bed side with a video playing on the screen.“Care to explain what this is?” he asked me an

CHAPTER 132RUBY'S POV On the second day of Dax being admitted, he was still unconscious. He only repeatedly slipped in and out of his consciousness where he would just stare at me blankly before losing consciousness again and my eyes were already swollen and hurting due to how much I cried.That afternoon, I was dozing off while I sat beside an unconscious Dax and suddenly, my phone began to ring and when I checked the caller ID, it was Dennis. Quickly, I rejected the call but he kept on calling no matter how many times I declined his calls so I gave in and picked up on his seventh attempt at pissing me off.“What the hell do you want from me, Dennis?” I snapped at him while whispering and he snickered, making me want to strangle him through the phone. “I'm sure you know I did it by now” he went straight to the point and my grip on my phone tightened so hard that I thought my phone would break to pieces in my hand while I gritted my teeth so furiously.“How could you try to kill s

CHAPTER 131RUBY'S POV Morning came and I woke up when I heard someone knocking on the door. Dax was still asleep so I decided to get the door instead. I managed to slip out of his arms since he was holding onto me like I was going to run away in the middle of the night. Then I put on my vest and shorts while the knocking persisted and I rushed toward the door to know who was there.I opened it and I was surprised when I saw it was breakfast. I looked at the resort staff before me and she smiled at me so I made way for her to come into the room and she headed straight for the table In the room to set our breakfast for us.“We didn't order anything though, so how did you know what we wanted?” I asked her and she kept on smiling while she did her job.“Mr. Kellen already scheduled everything with us when he booked the room for your stay here” she explained and I nodded in response before she left the room.I noticed my purse which was still by the entrance to the room and I smiled as

CHAPTER 130RUBY'S POV The surprise location was Santorini and I found out just when we landed in the country and got out of the plane. To say I was elated would be an understatement. I was beyond excited, over the moon and happy that he chose that place for our vacation because it was so beautiful and dreamy and I had always dreamt of going there. So I hugged and kissed Dax on the cheek to thank him and show how much I loved his gesture and he was beaming from ear to ear after I did that in front of the hostesses that worked on the plane. I guessed he was over the moon to have me show that he was mine in public for the first time. “Good day sir and madam. We’ll be heading to the resort now” a driver said after bowing to us and I looked at Dax since I had no idea what was going on.“He’s going to be our designated driver while we’re here” hhe explained when he saw I looked clueless and I nodded before smiling back at the driver while our luggages, a box each of our own, were moved

CHAPTER 129RUBY'S POV Days later, I was safely discharged from the hospital and it was time for the vacation which Dax had proposed. On my way to the airport with him for our vacation, he wouldn't let me out of his sight until we got into the car and I couldn’t help but notice he became even more clingy after our reconciliation and sometimes, it felt like I was imagining it all just like how I thought I imagined everything I told him when I was sedated that night. He had no idea that I could remember and I didn't plan to let him know because I felt embarrassed about it.Patricia and the rest came over to check on me at the hospital and they were even happier than me to know that Dax was speaking to me again. They were glad their plan worked out for me and I would be lying if I didn't admit that I was over the moon too.Arriving at the airport, our luggages were taken into the plane by the staff and I used that moment to tell everyone goodbye one last time before leaving. I hugged

CHAPTER 128DAX’S POVI couldn’t sleep. Not after the conversation I just had with Ruby so all I could do was watch her while she slept thanks to the sedating medication she was given after shebwas rushed to the hospital for her fever and my guilt ate at my insides without mercy.There was a lot about Ruby that I didn’t know. I had no idea that she went through all of that after I broke up with her. I didn’t even know that Micahel had thrown her out because I was trying to avoid her and hearing her say all of it to me while half asleep made me realize how much of a selfish jerk I was.If I were in Ruby’s shoes, I’d do the same and not tell me I was Sally’s father because she was right. I left once so what would stop me from leaving again? she was just protecting her daughter and that was what I failed to understand after knowing the truth.So I spent days away from her, overworking myself to get over the fact that I missed her and my daughter even though Simon told me that she was a m
