PAWNED TO THE BILLIONAIRE CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO
Liam's povI tried to tiptoe into the house this night again, I was so careful not to make a sound because Asher would be furious if she saw me coming home so late again. We had been fighting about my home coming late for weeks. Lucy always has her way of keeping me at her place longer than I intended. I was so tired that all I wanted was to get into my bed, but I knew I couldn't avoid the inevitable confrontations.I gently opened the glass-paneled golden door of the sitting room, with the intention of sneaking into the bedroom and sleep. At least, I would save the argument for tomorrow. But to my surprise, Asher was standing right in front of the door as if she had heard my footsteps. "Welcome, you're home late,"she said coolly. I almost jumped out of my skin. I wasn't expecting her to be awake at this hour. Usually, she should be sound asleep by now."I called your personal assistant, and she said you left the office quite early today. But now you're coming home at this ungodly h
PAWNED TO THE BILLIONAIRE LUCY'S CRISIS
Lucy's povI had attended my friend's birthday party when I cited a familiar face as I mingled with the guests. It was Stanley, someone I had thought was living in Germany, but here he was, in America, attending the same party. Anger ripped through me and I made my way over to him, determined to confront him about his presence. "I'm here for a seminar," Stanley explained, his tone calm."But how did you know about this party?" I demanded, my voice rising in anger. "And how do you know my friend?""Your friend's elder brother is my friend. I'm staying with them while I'm here in America. She told me that she knows you, and that you would be attending the party," he said in his cool tone."That girl is not thinking clearly, why would she tell you I would be at the party" I exclaimed, turning to look for her. But Stanley grabbed my arm, stopping me in my tracks."Lucy, please I love you" he said, his voice calm and filled with emotions. But that only made resentment grow inside me like

Lucy's povI desperately tried to think of a way to get Stanley out of the toilet without Liam finding out, but my mind was drawing a blank. I refused eye contact with Liam, and hummed quietly to myself several times. I felt sorry for Stanley for the heat that he must be enduring as it was over four hours. The toilet window is very small for enough ventilation. My worry made it hard for me to be calm as I was just thinking of a way to get him out but he would surely pass through the Living room before he could exit.Liam could tell something was off about me, and he kept asking what was wrong. But I just kept telling him that I was fine. Because how could I tell him that a man slept over at my place, and that I had been so drunk that I didn't even remember what happened? "I need to rest in the bedroom," Liam said ."I am tired of being ignored, you've been acting strange since I got here.""Em…em" I stammered, not sure of what to say. My pulse raised as I struggled to control my quive
PAWNED TO THE BILLIONAIRE ASHER'S TERRIBLE MISTAKE
Asher's povI have been so worried that I have not gotten pregnant even though our marriage is not up to six months. My dream was to have a child before my first year wedding anniversary but I'm scared it won't happen that way. My prayer everyday to God was to give me a child. I need someone to play with in the house as Liam already made me quit my job. Liam is not the same caring husband I knew so I think a child will be a replacement. He stays out late and gives me many excuses for his behavior.I confronted him every time but my husband is so smart that he would cover up. Although, hasn't hurt me physically, his emotional distance is hurting me deeply.I decided to go to the hospital for a checkup today since he's home. I didn't inform him earlier because I knew he would find a way to convince me that it was not necessary. I have been so anxious that I just want to be sure that everything is okay, and that there's no medical reason why I haven't been able to get pregnant.I dressed

"Thank God you got here in time," the doctor said to Asher, his voice heavy with relief. She had cried her eyes off, but now she felt a little relief. Just moments ago, she had feared the worst for Liam. He had been so still, his pulse so faint, that Asher had been afraid he might have lost him. But the doctor's words gave her hope that perhaps, her husband would be okay."It wasn't just the fall that caused his collapse," the doctor continued. "He has low blood pressure, his blood pressure has drastically dropped below normal and we will need to give him a close monitoring" Asher's heart sank. Different thoughts ran through her mind at the thought of low blood pressure. She cried silently, tears streaming down hisface without a sound. Just as the doctor was about to say something, the door flew open and Liam's parents rushed into the room. His mother was shouting, "What did you say happened to my son, Asher?" Hot tears burned her cheeks. Liam's father, Dr. Xavier was trying to cal

As Asher drove into her compound, the security guard rushed over to greet her "How is Mr. Liam's health?" he asked, his voice full of compassion."He's fine," Asher replied, too tired to talk further. The security guard nodded, sensing that she wasn't in the mood to talk. He stepped aside and let her pass, he watched as she entered the house with sympathy.As soon as she stepped into her house, she collapsed into a chair, her body and spirit exhausted. She couldn't stop thinking about the events that had led to Liam collapsing, and another round of tears well up in her eyes. Even though the doctor had said that Liam's collapse wasn't caused by hitting his head, she still felt a deep sense of guilt and responsibility. She breathed out heavily and prayed silently for Liam's recovery.The sudden ringing of Liam's phone, which was sitting on the table, startled Asher out of her thoughts. She looked at the screen and saw that the caller was listed as "Ly." Who could that be, she wondered.

Liam's pov"He just opened his eyes," Asher yelled, running out of the room. Although I couldn't see clearly, I recognized her voice.I tried to sit up but the kind of headache that I got made me fall back to bed.I began to wonder what was happening as I heard noises outside the room and many footsteps running into the room. My head was blank, I couldn't get what was happening. I wanted to sit up again and look around, but my body felt weak and heavy. Then I heard my mother's voice running inside the room and calling my name. "Liam" she called, her voice filled with excitement. I wanted to respond to her, but my mouth felt dry and my tongue felt like lead.She rushed over to me, grasping my hands in hers. I could see her clearly now, and I noticed my father and Asher's parents standing behind her. I saw an IV drip attached to my hand, and something like a blood pressure cuff on my arm, connected to a monitor.l was disoriented, trying to process all the information flooding my senses

"But sweetheart, you need to rest today. Remember the doctor said you need to rest for at least a week before you resume work. Where are you going now?" Asher said, as Liam was preparing to leave the house.Liam had only just been discharged from the hospital the night before, and he was already up and getting ready to go out.He had texted Lucy the day before to explain why he hadn't been able to reach her. Lucy had been so worried that she wanted to see him that night, but he had begged her not to come because there was no way she could visit without causing a scene. His parents and Asher's parents were still around, and he knew Asher would be devastated if she saw him with Lucy so he had promised to see her the next morning. "I need to see a client," Liam lied, trying to make up an excuse to leave the house."Babe, you're still recovering. When did the client tell you he wanted to meet you in person?" Asher asked, his voice tinged with curiosity."Please, don't start with all thes
