One Night With The Billionaire 95
" I am sorry sir, please forgive me " Her whole body was shaking and you could tell the heat was much on her, Richard didn't seem like he wanted to hear any apology from her, all he wanted was answers. " I just want to understand your reason, Veronica, and not this thing you are saying here " " Please Sir I didn't know what came over me " Richard looked at her, smiled, then shook his head and said. " You are still not answering my question, Veronica " Veronica was going to say something when I begged Richard to take my leave. But he doesn't seem like he wants me to go just yet. I was tired of standing already and needed some rest, plus I have been stressing my brain lately, so I was thinking I could go rest. At least a part of my problem had been sorted out. But Richard declined, his reasons best known to him. I was completely tired and didn't think I could stand any further. So I asked " Can I at least sit for a minute? Please, I'm losing strength " "Go on, you can

Got home and Richard was still being sorry. Sorry about what exactly? He said it once. And I think that should be enough already. Why does he keep being sorry? He started checking up on me every minute to know how I was feeling . He was just here. and there and I was becoming even more uncomfortable, that I wished we remained the way we were. What if he finds out Mark already know we are in a contract marriage? What is he going to do this time, kill me? Finally, he came to find out if I could hang out with him, but I was surprised to why he would want to hang out with me for just proving my innocence, any body could have been the victim. So does that mean this is how he would treat every other staffs or am I suddenly becoming special? and I didn't notice? He came up to me while trying to do laundry and asked. " What day is today? " I looked at the cloth on my hand and wondered why he was suddenly asking for days, something he never did in the past . I was going to pr

-Veronica's POV- The game continues, and I may be out of their office. But I'm not out of their lives. At this point, I think they have successfully made me a part of their family. I will try everything in my power to get down with Richard. After all Gabriella was accused of, Richard still kept her around him. I guess he's very much in love with her, but no problem, I won't give up just yet. I think I will need to come up with an idea of what to do and real fast. But come to think of it. If I get down with Mark and Gabriella can't stand the betrayal, it shows she’s the weak one here. She takes things to heart easily and doesn't know how to control her emotions. Cause I'm sure Mark must have apologized to her and probably tried to explain what happened to her. But her feelings at that moment won't let her listen to anything. Since the guys' love towards her is always stronger, I will try it again, and this time around I'm getting down with Richard. I don't care what it takes.

“ Today is Saturday, remember? " Richard, who was sitting in the living room, said to Gabriella, who was holding Amber's hand and coming down from the kids' room. " Yea I remember, but I have to take care of something first " Richard looked at Amber and noticed her eyes were red and her face swollen. He was surprised to see Amber looking that way. " And Amber, What happened to her? " " She's been crying since, just came up to see her this way. ""You joking right? I just gave them ice cream a few hours ago. What's making her cry? " "You Daddy!" Richard was surprised and looked around himself to see if there was a scary spirit following him that would make Amber cry to the point of having a swollen face. " How baby, What did I do? " " You got me the wrong ice cream flavor" Richard almost burst into laughter but suddenly realized himself and bent down to her level to apologize to her. " You know Daddy would never do that intentionally, right? Just that I'm yet to ma

I Thought of what other lies to tell Richard but couldn't come up with any I decided to tell him I was going to see my friend who was leaving town that very day. " I won't be long please, I just need to see her off at the airport " " You don't want me to meet her? " "I guess is late now, you should have said earlier Richard" "It's fine, my regards to her" I fled off to get a taxi that would take me to the place, and when I got there, Mark was already seated waiting for me. He was at the exact spot. We sat the last time we were there. Which made it easier for me to locate him and I quickly joined him there. He wasn't bright at all. A lot seemed to be going through his mind. But I hope he says whatever it is faster so I can leave. " What's up, Mark? Why did you ask to see me? " " Can we drink on it? " " No we can't Mark, Richard is already suspecting I have something going on out there. And I don't want to give him more reasons to "" . Who's Richard? " Who is Ric

I returned very late and was scared Richard was going to get mad at me if he found out. I came back That late, I tried tip-toeing up to my room. So no one would see me coming in. I was just about to start climbing the stairs when someone switched on the light in the living room . I would never in my life thought that Richard would be down in the living room waiting for me to return. " My goodness Richard! You startled me " " Why are you tip toeing? " I quickly looked for a lie to cover up with, so he doesn’t get mad, or do something nasty to me . If he stayed down here waiting for me to return, it means he had actually thought about it, and decided on what to do. " Yea about that, I slumped coming in here " " So Sorry, can I see? " "Don't worry, I will take care of that when I get upstairs" " If you insist " That was really close, what if he had found out I lied to cover up? I'm sure that would be another case to settle. " Anyways, I waited for you to return. So

She kept staring at Richard to the point that Richard became even more uncomfortable. He quietly sat and looked at every face on the table. The whole thing looked just too strange to him. All the while, he was battling with his spirit " Should you be doing this Richard? " he asked himself, but couldn't come up with an answer. Shortly after he settled in, Chloe moved closer to where he was seated and tried getting acquainted. " Hi, my name is Chloe . What about you? " It took Richard seconds to actually decide whether to respond to that or not, but felt since he's already in it, it’s best he tune it down a little so they won't conspire against him. " My name is Richard " " It’s good to meet you Richard, hope you are having fun? " "Just joined, so I can't say for sure" " Can I keep you company, Richard? " " That won't be necessary Chloe " " I insist please " He was beginning to loosen up a bit and kinda getting used to the people he found himself in their midst . Sudd

" Hello Richard, is everything okay? " " Yea Everything is fine Gabriella, will see you in the morning " " I wanted to ... " Gabriella wasn't done with what she had to say when Richard abruptly ended the call in her ear and went back to join the others. " You are back early Richard " Richard didn't find it necessary to respond to that question. So he pretended he didn't hear her and went back to taking his wine. " I seriously want to get close Richard, is that too much to ask? " Can you save your acquaintance for someone else, please? " -Chloe's POV- Drink to your misery son of a bitch! You are too rich and feel the world revolves around you, right? Just wondering why he's feeling all high and might. That being rich doesn't give you the right to make others worthless around you, you are lucky Gabriella wanted just a little substance in your drink. I would have drugged you to death, silly thing. I haven't seen someone with such an ego in all my life, just wonde
