One Night With The Billionaire 50
How should I tell Mark Veronica could be his nightmare? How can I explain to him? Is she not really who she portrays? I wish I could come in to save him from this mess he's about to get himself into. Mark May has hurt me in the past, I know, but I can't wish things like Veronica for him. He deserves better even though I am not there anymore, and I hope I can get him out of this without getting involved, because if Richard finds out I'm dead. I think I saved his number on my phone after the last time he called. Maybe I should give him a call. " Hello Mark How are you, hope this is not the wrong time. " " Wow! I'm surprised Gabriella, you still have my number? " Whatever Mark thinks I don't know But I seriously need to do this, because I will be free from guilt too. " Yes Mark, was scrolling down my phone and it would be nice if I called to hear from you " Yeah, That's actually what it is. And I won't stop at anything. But if he insists, then I will kindly allow

I was having my alone time in the room thinking of Mark and his newfound love, for some reason that I don't know I kept thinking about Mark, whom I don't have any business with. If he decides to mess his life up I don't see how it's any of my business. I only did what I felt was right, but since he insists, I can only wish him good luck. When Richard came knocking on my door, at first I didn't know he was the one, thought it was either one of the girls or both. So I stood up to go get the door only to find out Richard at the door. I was surprised because I wasn't expecting him. " Hey " He looked like something was bothering him, cause he wasn't looking at Richard. I know, Well, I didn't waste my time asking questions, I just needed to respond to whatever brought him to my room this evening. " Hello " I responded and waited to say what brought him before I could go back inside. " Do you want to join me in the living room or should I come in instead? " I quickly g

It's usually not my thing. But I woke up early on that faithful Saturday morning at about 4:52. And I was feeling all cranky, and couldn't think of what to do to help me get better. I laid back on the bed still trying to figure out what to do, because I wouldn't want my kids to see me in such a mood, a few minutes later, I remembered a road walk can help. So I got dressed in sporty wear. I was able to get my hands on, it since I don't do sports. I usually don't see them as a necessity, so I hardly buy them. But the one I tried on didn't look any bad either. So I said and dashed out immediately to begin my mile run. It was a good feeling I don't know why I find it difficult to try it most times. I was almost getting to a 45-minute run when I saw Mark running on the same street as me. He was still behind me when I saw him and I pretended not to notice he was the one behind me, but What I can't explain is how he got to know I was the one running in his front. Before I

I couldn't believe what my eyes saw, Yeah I know he goes for a morning walk 3 times a week, but never knew this was his route. Is this his route or is Richard stalking me? Hope He doesn't come to me for answers. If he does, how should I explain to him that mark? And I just ran into each other on the street? Especially when Mark had told him I was his ex-girlfriend. Well, he hasn't reprimanded me about anything yet, so I will try not to jump to conclusion yet. It was indeed a day for me. And I was a little disorganized, because I knew Richard would confront me, but I managed to walk myself to the bathroom, wash off sweat, then went to the girls to check if they were out of bed. My good luck charms are already up and playing on their bed with their toys. No doubt they have missed me so much, you can easily tell from the excitement on their faces. " Good morning Mummy! " both said at the same time and left the bed immediately to hug me, "Good morning girls, it is time to fres

-Gabby's POV- He seemed quite serious when he said he didn't want to see me with any man. He could be right though. but there's no way I will see just any man and start having a chat with them. Mark is not just any man but an ex, so it would be wrong of me to see him and not talk to him, unless his particular about not talking to Mark and not just any man. I think is best I avoid seeing him at all, which is almost impossible. He's related to Richard and now his girlfriend works in the same office as me, a hard one indeed. But why has Richard suddenly become a jealous man? I thought he never cared. I thought I was just an option for him. Since when did he become this he becomes this person? I think something is going on with him. and I hope it doesn't get worse than what it looks like now, cause I will be dealing with a lot by then, which I'm very sure will affect me badly. Hold on a second. I think my phone is ringing. Jane calls after the last call to tell me about Ri

I didn't bother taking the call because I knew I had wasted a lot of time, and going back to her call now might take extra time, which I didn't want. We can always talk some other time. I had to quickly get the food ready, then hurried to the girls' room only to find out they had gone back to sleep. My goodness! I knew it would lead to this because I have taken time in the kitchen. Now waking them up is going to be a task on its own. I succeeded in making them up, though it was a job. But I did it. " Okay girls, it is breakfast time, I know I have taken a lot of your time " They were drowsy but I managed to walk them to the dining It wasn't a joke. "What happened mummy? It took you quite a long to prepare breakfast" I know they would ask but I had to tell a little white lie to escape it. , I pulled the chair out and helped them sit, then served them food to eat. " You can eat girls. Let me go fetch your daddy " I then went in search of Richard so he could join us,

-Mark's POV- I do love Gabriella and think she will feel hurt when she finds out what I'm doing with Veronica is all an act just to get her attention. And I don't know how best to go about this. Should I just allow this thing to flow naturally? Or just continue, hopefully, it will yield success? I'm just so confused. and I hope I don't ruin everything because of my desperation. Now I think Gabriella has developed a strong hate for Veronica. I mean, who wouldn't? Especially when she has no shame whatsoever. We are cool as friends now as she doesn't get irritated by my sight anymore. Maybe I should just stick to it instead of continuing with this, I can always explain to her, and then let her find out herself. Who knows she might come around someday. I think I should call Veronica and tell her I'm calling this nonsense quiet. I can't have it destroy my chances. But Gabriella is quite difficult, especially when she has decided in her heart not to have anything to do w
