Mr. Billionaire, At Your Service 39 || Belt Of Fall
~Demetrius' POV~She cried for me. Naughty girl.I watched her as she exited the room and sighed. I cast a glance at my arm and hissed out. Who the actual hell shot me like that?And also why was Ryan here? He could not be here so quickly considering the distance. I need to rest. The door soon opened and the doctor walked in alongside Ophelia."Mr. Valecian, you are awake already. How do you feel?" He asked me and I relaxed against the pillow and started replying to his questions. At least the ones I have the answer to."Okay, we will check other things and let you know when he will be discharged. But for now, he won't be able to use his arms so for now, as his girlfriend..." He was still saying when my head registered the word he said.Girlfriend?Who is my girlfriend?Wait, he was talking to Ophelia... I looked at me and she smiled at me nervously."I might have said that so you would be attended to quickly." She said and I understood. It is not something bad anyways if she introdu

~Ophelia's POV~His breath fanned my face as I looked into deep blue eyes. Emotions flowed as I blinked my eyes with a gulp. The connection was so broken as he groaned out since I pressed further into his arms. I realized it soon and hurriedly scrambled up. "Hmm, sorry. It was my belt." I said and pulled it out. He looked at me for a few seconds before turning to lie on his side."Good night. Sweet dreams." I said and exited his room.I looked through my phone and saw fifteen missed calls from Kelly and twenty missed calls from my mother. That is strange. Kelly has not called even after I got here.I dialed my mother's number first and she picked it up immediately."Ophelia?" She asked like she was not sure she was talking to me."Hi, mum." I greeted with less enthusiasm."Oh my goodness, Ophelia. You almost gave me an attack." She said and I frowned my face."What do you mean by that?" I asked her."Didn't you see the news?" She asked and I furrowed my eyebrows further."See what?" I

~Demetruis' POV~I looked at my personal bodyguard and he nodded at me. Ophelia stood up and drank water before we all headed to the back of the hotel. He passed two dark shades to us and we wore them. He opened the door and we stepped in. Ophelia looked around again and I placed my hand on her back while I patted her. Looking at me, she smiled as she looked at the arm that was bandaged. I smiled and shook my head, clearly saying it was nothing. She relaxed and we looked ahead of us. He ignited the car's engine and soon started driving."What is the situation?" I asked him."The people that shot you... From what I saw, I don't think they wanted to kill you." He said and I sat up rightly."I think it was some sort of warning." He said and my eyes narrowed."Warning about what?" I asked."Miss Ophelia." He said and Ophelia and I shared a look of shock and confusion."Why would you say that?" I asked him and he looked at me in the eye through the front mirror."Come to think of it, Her

~Ophelia's POV~It's been days since Demetrius and I spoke. All he has been doing is receiving calls and trying to get to the bottom of the incident. But nothing was yielding. Absolutely nothing. I have not even stepped. I was scared that I would be the next target. Who am I kidding? I am the target.Sighing, I dumped the towel on the cabinet and brought out my phone. Seven missed calls from Kelly. Why the heck was she calling me? I have been ignoring her calls intentionally. I don't want to be telling her so many things anymore.She must be worried. I clicked on the 'call back' button and it rang for some seconds before she picked it."Hello," she said with strange eagerness."Hello." I replied, bored."Gosh, Ophelia. I was so worried about you and here you sound like you are bored." She said and I exhaled deeply."I am fine, Kelly. If that is what you want to hear." I said and exited the kitchen. I saw Demetrius, he was also on the phone but then when our eyes connected, sparks fle

~Demetruis's POV~I looked at Ryan with focus. What was he doing here? I mean how did he know this place?"Ryan–""Hey, Demetrius." He said but my eyebrow twitched in confusion."What are you doing here?" I asked him with a stoic face."Do you think I am heartless? I mean I know that we are not that close but you were shot. I definitely have to come and see you." He said but I don't believe him. I let it slide. I don't want to cause more trouble. Now that my health is not as stable as it was."Anyway, Emery...""What does she want?" I cut him with my question. He smiled and scoffed. "Relax, you guys history is none of my business. Anyway, you should remember her father's birthday is approaching soon and it is some days away. Knowing fully well, how her father and ours was close, you should not let your fucked up history with his daughter hold you back from attending it." He said sternly and I knew he had a point there. Her father and ours were really close but they were not best frien

~Ophelia's POV~"Thank you so much for taking care of him. I don't know what I would have done if not for you." Loretta said and I could not help but feel guilty. It was my fault that he was shot. But I managed to force a small smile."Demetrius does not deserve to be neglected." I said and she nodded her head in reply."Beautiful Lady." Maureen said and I turned to look at her with a smile."Hi, pretty girl." I replied and she grinned."I am glad you were there with my brother." She said and I smiled even more. What could be better than having people who care deeply about you?"Okay, I think I had better leave. My friend who I share the apartment with me will be really mad at me." I said.Not like I cared. But I had to give an excuse.Maureen frowned and it broke my heart to leave. But I have to. Right now."Okay then. I will inform Demetrius." Loretta said."You don't need to inform me." His voice boomed from behind. Gosh, when did he come downstairs? I turned around and saw him. He

I looked up at Demetrius. "Someone is here?" Kelly asked."Come in." Loretta said and the door was pushed open. My mother stepped in, she looked around the place and then her eyes landed on me. My brows creases together."Mother..." She raised her hands to me."You..." She trailed off as she moved closed to us."So you now stay with a man? Or are you here for a celebration?

Water dripped down from my hair to my night gown."Happy Birthday!"

PART FIVE~Demetruis' POV~She is carrying my child? My own freaking child? My child. And she left me. What if something happened to her? Or to the kid?I pulled the car over and stepped out. I walked towards the entrance of Emery's house. Pushing the door open, not caring to knock, I walked inside.I saw her, the devil herself, sitting there with a smoke in her hands and watching Netflix. Spoilt brat."You came back?" She asked as she faced me with a amused look."No, I did not. And will never." I bit out as I clenched my fist from going straight for her plastic chin. Instead I moved closer to her, I leaned over, almost choking on the awful cigarette smell. This brand was really really hard, I wonder how is she yet to run mad. Even I must not take these. Well, what do you expect from someone like Emery?"I know what you did." I whispered and I noticed her throat burp and she choked on the smoke.Good.She started coughing out and reached for the drink. I took it away in a swift motio

PART FOUR~Ophelia's POV~Loretta's lips widened into a grin as she took note of me. From her huge grin I knew her heart leaped with joy. Which was weird for me. I mean why would she be so happy to meet me? I am just an ordinary secretary to her son."Ophelia." She called out with every ounce of your joy she could show. My lips turned into a small smile and I moved forward. "Ma'am." I greeted."Oh my goodness, you are real." She said as she touched her chest. She pulled me into an instant hug and squeezed me tight. Okay, this treatment I am receiving is weird for me today."You don't know how much I missed you." Maureen said and I noticed she was crying.She was crying? For me?I am really heartless.I crouched down to her level and cupped her face in my palms. "I am so sorry, Maureen. I promise you I won't leave again." I said and she blinked her eyes."You won't?"

PART THREE~Ophelia's POV~To say that I was shocked will be an understatement. Damien was standing here. In my little living room. In a casual dress.He raised his brows and folded his arms. "Never knew you were such a loser!" He snapped at me suddenly and I felt the small world I was trying to build crumble down before me at the vocals of his voice."I..."

"So you think you can just leave as you want after what happened?" He asked, his eyes searching for a particular thing I know nothing of. This was dangerous. It was dangerous. Why can't he just let me go?I need to speak up, Clearing my throat, I patted my thigh with my hands. "Nice meeting you again." I said and he uttered a scoff before settling down to sit. I followed his every action. His muscles strained in the pair of jeans he wore. He had his eyes fixat

PART TWOI woke up as early as I could for this mysterious meeting with this person. I was eager to see what he had in store for me but I should also be careful because it could be the person that was stalking Ophelia at that time. But it goes both ways and I hope it is worth the risk I was taking."Demetrius, where are you going so early?" My mother asked as she sipped her tea. That was one thing she was used to. Waking up early and drinking tea as she watches the sun rise."No where. Just have to make a quick visit to someone." I said and she turned to me fully with a shocked expression."Really? Never knew you to make meetings as early as this." She said with her brows raised and I did not want to tell her about it."Mother, it is nothing to worry about. I will be quick." I said and hurried towards the dining table. I picked an apple and bit into it."Goodbye mum." I said and walked out. It was still a little bit dark so I just drove my car.

PART ONE~Ophelia's POV~Kelly moved away from me and went towards the door. I just stood there, expecting to see who it was that came here. Something in me was hoping that it would be HIM. Opening it, she moved back and Ryan peeped in with a cocky smile."Sorry but you left your purse." He said as he handed it over to me. I stared at him with scrutiny. He could have just called me back. Right?He looked at Kelly and I noticed her move uncomfortably on her feet. "Okay, you can leave now. Thank you anyway for the ride. I really appreciate." I said again with a feigned smile that I was not even sure it was there and he nodded his head at me before moving back. Kelly slammed the door shut and glared at me before going to sit down. Just as I was about to utter a word, a knock came again and I groaned out loud. What does he want?I walked towards the door with the aim to speak my mind to him but then I pushed the door open, "I am quite thirsty. I was thinking if you would welcome me insid
