Reborn to love the ruthless billionaire CHAPTER 39
CHAPTER 39CHRISWhen I opened my eyes after our intense love making session, Bella had rolled out of my arms. She was fast asleep. I didn’t even know when we both dozed off.We have never had sex as intense as that before. It was crazy. She wasn’t backing down and I wasn’t giving up. I guess the mixture of emotions and distance between us these past few days really heightened both our desires.Bella drives me crazy. I may be falling in love with her or maybe it’s the crazy sex we just had that has put me in my feelings. Whatever it is, if she keeps treating me like this, I may mess around and make our contract permanent.When she told me she had something to do with Mason in the past, it explained the name situation and my anger completely melted away, even though I may still have some slight reservations.Mason is such a scumbag. Having a beautiful wife like Nicole and still keeping two mistresses? But I wonder why Chester never found any of this info. Perhaps when I had Nicole and

CHAPTER 40The boy looked at me, then at the man standing behind me before he spoke.“In private.” He said. He shared another look with Colin who I imagine must have given him a nasty glare, forcing the boy to plead, “Please, Mr Chris, let me talk to you privately.” I looked at him suspiciously for a minute but I understood the world he was coming from. It was dark, deep and full of secrets and they had people everywhere.“Can you excuse us for a while Detective Colin?” I asked the police detective standing behind me.I could tell he wasn’t pleased about the idea from his gruff voice as he replied. “Are you sure about that sir?”“Yeah, I can handle this.” I said.Colin reluctantly left the room but he was standing outside.“Sir, please reach beneath the table and disconnect the recording device underneath it.” The boy said immediately Colin left the room.There’s a recording device beneath the table? I suddenly didn’t feel pity for the boy anymore. He must have been in many interrog

CHAPTER 41NICOLEChris lied when he said no penetration. Not only was there penetration but we had sex twice again that night and we ended up not going for dinner at all.By the time we finished, it was already 11pm, so we decided to settle for some home cooked meal. Since the home Chef had already closed for the day as we had dinner plans, Chris offered to cook and I was left in shock.“Are you sure about this?” I asked him teasingly as I poured myself a glass of orange juice and sat by the kitchen table, watching Chris battle with the utensils in the cabinet.“Of course. You should count yourself lucky to be tasting my special delicacy.” Chris boasted pointing a frying pan at me.I snickered a little at the way he boasted.“And what’s this special delicacy? Because all I see is pots and pans with zero ingredients.” I remarked.“Ah, Patience is a virtue, my dear, and good things come to those who wait.” Chris said and his very cute smile adorned his face as he put on an apron.“I lo

CHAPTER 42CHRISAfter last night, in fact, after the whole of yesterday, I realized what I wanted. I wanted Bella to be mine forever. I know it’s a long shot considering the dynamics of our relationship, but I’m willing to see how it goes. I have nothing to lose.All through the night, I didn’t want to let her go, whenever I noticed she was no longer clutched in my arms, I immediately would wake up and pull her right back into me.I felt at peace. Despite all the other bad stuff that was happening around us, I felt a real calm within me just having this woman in my arms and at the thought of us doing this forever.Yesterday, as we cooked and ate together, I imagined our kids running around us, asking for a taste and just being a nuisance.The thought warmed my heart and I decided to discuss it with her when she woke up. I’ll start with us having kids. It’ll be easier to convince her to be mine forever if we have something deeper connecting us.I didn’t even notice she had opened her

CHAPTER 43NICOLEWhen I first started coming to this clinic, it was for contraceptive treatments but for the past three months, I’ve been coming for the complete opposite. Fertility treatments.Chris has been so eager since he told me he wanted us to have kids and suggested I get one of those fertility treatments since my monthly visitor has shown up without fail consecutively even though I was off the contraceptives. Hence, my new predicament.“Everything looks good Mr. and Mrs. Bale, just give it some time.” Doctor Travis, my reproductive endocrinologist, was addressing Chris and I.“Thank you doc, I told him there’s no cause for alarm, he’s just being impatient.” I replied.Chris rolled his eyes at me, earning a little laugh from the doctor. “Mr. Bale, I assure you, you are both completely fertile.”“Thank you doctor, we’ll be on our way now.” Chris replied.“Oh and keep switching things up in the bedroom, that might help too, at least some of my patients say so.” The doctor adde

CHAPTER 44NICOLEAn idea quickly struck me. I knew Claire’s number offhand so I quickly changed my caller ID to private and dialed her number. Hoping to God, it at least made her stop to take her call.“See, I told you it’s probably one of ours, your phone is ringing again.” George said.Claire turned back to the bed and once she picked the call, I ended it again. “That’s weird, it’s a private number.” Claire remarked.“Probably one of those pranksters or telemarketing fraudsters.” George replied.My idea seemed to have worked as Claire stayed back in bed and the two started having sex again.I quickly texted Chester.‘I need help getting out of here, I’m stuck in the wardrobe and it doesn’t look like they’re leaving soon.’Chester replied.“Already working on it and we got what we needed.”About ten minutes later, I heard a knock on the door and after a couple of verbal exchanges with the person, George and Claire both left the room. As soon as I heard the door lock, I came out of

CHAPTER 45NICOLE *****FLASHBACK******“Chris called me earlier today.” Aunty Alice spoke, pouring me a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice.I had paid her a visit in the new apartment Chris got her. A couple of days after he told me he wanted me to bear him children and potentially, become life partners.I still did not have my head wrapped around the whole proposal as it was too sudden and I didn’t know if he truly meant it or it was just a trick for me to give him a child and after the contract expires, he may change his mind and dump me.“He did? What did he call you for?” I asked her.She didn’t answer me immediately. She went inside the kitchen and brought some biscuits and peanuts. She put them on the coffee table in front of me and she sat down beside me.“Bella, I think you should accept his proposal. He has told me everything surrounding your relationship. I’m no expert in love. I’ve never even been married but one thing I know for certain is, if a man as powerful and a

CHAPTER 46CHRIS“You just need to tell us who’s the source and we’ll let you go.” Detective Colin queried Drew, the supposed Herald who sent the boys to burn my warehouse down.After two of them were found out, he went into hiding but like a pig destined for the slaughter, he couldn’t escape his capture.“I’m not saying a damn thing. Charge me to court already.” He barked at Detective Colin “Are you so eager to spend the rest of your life behind bars?” Colin questioned again.Drew started laughing in an hysterical manner causing the detective to lose it and punch him in the stomach.“My lawyer will hear that you hit me.” Drew said before spitting on Detective Colin’s shoes.Colin was ready to have another go at him but his colleague restrained him inside and took him outside to cool off.“I know you’re not scared of prison, they could even save you in court but what about death? A slow and painful one.” I asked Drew when it was just the two of us left alone.“You can’t do shit to me

Court dismissed.” The judge gave his verdict and slammed his gavel.Chris had fought tooth and nail to find ways to prove that Bella was Nicole’s sister and that she got all her assets and shares when the truth about Nicole’s murder came out.They were able to get one of the sisters of the orphanage to back up Aunt Alice's claim and Nicole’s original birth certificate was obtained from the hospital in Manc

CHAPTER 65NICOLE“Chris…..I,” George tried to speak as his mouth shook but Chris cut him off.He looked at George like a Tiger observing his prey. “I don’t want to hear it,” Chris took out a document and handed it over to George. “Here, I took the liberty of preparing the documents and you should be lucky that I am buying this from you at the actual price. My original plan was to leak the video and when your shares started dropping, I’d buy as many as I cared to but I’m doing this for your wife and my nephews.”I could tell George was more confused as to why Chris was buying his shares rather than why he had a video of him being intimate with Claire.George looked at me and I frowned. The man was a good man when we partnered. He helped my company but he let that witch dig her claws into him so deep that he even started stealing from the same company he was a majority shareholder in.I brought out the documents of the fake transactions he and Claire used to steal the money and handed

CHAPTER 64“Let me answer that,” A voice came from behind me and I was stunned when I saw Casper pointing a gun at us.How did he even get past all the guards we had outside?Chris’ eyes tightened and he clenched his fist, his eyes fixated on Casper but I could see the worry in them.Casper grabbed me from behind and I screamed. His arm went around my throat as he pointed the gun to my head and I could feel my heart race. My breath easily became labored and my body shook.“How did you get in here?” Chris bellowed, his bad legs meant he couldn’t move but I could feel he was trying.Ben’s eyes slowly darted between Casper and Chris but there was a mischievous look in his eyes that I couldn’t quite place until he spoke.“Oh, Relax Chris. Casper is only here to do what we should have done a long time ago,” He smirked and walked up to me.It turned out I was right all along. No wonder Casper got access to the house. Everything that happened yesterday and earlier was a farce. I wonder if Ch

CHAPTER 63NICOLEMy back was against the chest of the person who pulled me away from the door, but when the person spoke, I instantly recognized the voice. “Listen closely,” Ben whispered, releasing the pressure of his hands over my mouth.I could hear Charlotte’s saying, “I’m tired of this, I’m done.”“You’re tired when I say you are. You need to find a way to make things up with him. How else are we supposed to know what the heck is going on?” The other voice came, I recognized that voice, it was Casper’s. I recognize the voice from the other day at the spa.Ben looked disappointed as we shared a look, it turned out my suspicions were not exactly wrong. He was sharing everything with his girlfriend who was the mole that was in turn feeding Casper.I quick brought out my phone and texted my driver to come with the bodyguard. Ben had already informed the police.Then we started to hear Charlotte scream, we heard a loud bang and then complete silence rented the air.Next thing the d

CHAPTER 62NICOLEInside the executive conference room of the Strong Haven building, Chris gave a reassuring speech that was broadcast live from the building.Reassuring customers and investors alike, taking responsibility for the sudden downturn of events at the company, and promising a better tomorrow.In his own words to them, “You trusted me when my father gave me the reins of this great company. You put your faith in that young man all those years ago and I did not let you down. I only ask that you do the same now in such a time. As many of you may now know, our company suffered a data leak and the same people responsible for it also came after my life. It is said that in times of adversity, a man’s true friends will be revealed..”“I and this company are merely going through such a time, one that I know will be over soon. When this is all said and done, the ones who stood by us, our friends, will be revealed, and God helping us, we will make sure that they are duly rewarded. An

CHAPTER 61CHRISI couldn’t sleep all night. Everything Bella said made no sense and yet it explained so much.As I turned the possibilities over and over again in my mind, it began to make even more sense.Her behavior at the funeral, the altercation at the jewelry shop, her uneasiness at the award night, where Mason proposed to Claire, the iCloud name on her phone, and everything that happened afterward.Do I want to believe this? Can someone be reborn? I know I’ve heard and seen a lot of mysterious things but this one tops the chart.Bella had no reason to frame Mason and Claire for Nicole’s murder, so why would she cook up such a story? If the woman lying beside me was truly Nicole, everything she said made sense. Does this mean Nicole has been my wife all this time?No wonder she knew so much about my line of business, no wonder she could lead a team to secure a contract worth billions despite being a fresh graduate.Her story ticks so many boxes but it’s some supernatural shit

CHAPTER 60NICOLEWait a minute. How does Chris know I was doing something with Chester? Does that mean Chester didn’t keep to his word? But from the way Chris sounded, he didn’t know exactly what it was we were doing, so maybe he just had an inkling.I have to be honest with him, but how honest? Do I tell him everything? Do I tell him the real truth? Do I tell him that I am Nicole? Reborn in the body of a sister I only recently found out that I had? Would he believe me? What valid reason could I give? I have to really think about this. I have to find a smart way to do this. Not tonight.“Baby, it’s already late, remember the doctor said you need to get maximum rest. I’ll tell you everything in the morning.” I finally replied.I better have a good explanation when I wake up, that’s if he lets me off the hook tonight.“Bella, when Chester told me you had him on a job out of respect for me, I told him to keep it strictly between the two of you because I wanted to respect your choices a

CHAPTER 59NICOLEThe day finally came for my husband to go home. He could sit in a wheelchair now but would still be under constant watch. He started occasionally getting seizures recently but the doctor assured us it was nothing fatal.The board was still on him to name someone as the New CEO while he was recuperating. A new face for the company as the shares were still plummeting hard.The media wasn’t helping either with various speculations flying up and down the internet. Competitors were taking advantage of the turbulence and luring away customers.It was slowly becoming a very difficult situation for Chris to handle. Casper was still out there somewhere, probably smiling at everything happening and the mole was still unknown.“Thank you, doctor. I’ll take good care of him.” I said to the doctor as I wheeled Chris out of the hospital room.We planned to move very early in the morning to avoid the press and it worked. There was minimal presence outside.We got home and settled i

CHAPTER 58NICOLEWow, this is not going as I planned at all. I didn’t think Brenda would get suspicious and invite Claire.If anyone knew my sister, it definitely would be Claire, and considering our history since I took Bella’s body, this was going to be a crazy meeting.Brenda got up and briefly hugged Claire before the two took their seats.“Hi, Claire.” I greeted, forcing a smile.“Hey! Bella, do you know Brenda too? Small world. I heard about your husband. I’m so sorry.” Claire said in her usual cheerful manner.Typical Claire, cheerful for no reason with the heart of a beast.“I just met her yesterday, she says she’s Nicole’s sister,” Brenda replied to her before I could say anything.“Sister?” Claire asked, looking at me bewildered before she burst into uncontrollable laughter.There was no way in hell she was going to believe it but this is a good time to show Brenda what kind of a snake Claire is and to call her out.“C'mon Bella, be serious.
