Reborn to love the ruthless billionaire CHAPTER 7
NICOLEA surge of different emotions course through my veins as I hear Mason’s voice, anger, sadness, hatred and even fearThe picture of the vase hitting my lifeless body while I’m on the floor flashes through my mind and I shudder a bit“I’m truly sorry for your loss Mason, she was a rare gem” Chris turns and says to himI don’t know what annoys me the most, the fact that Mason is standing right behind me or that Chris just blatantly lied, we weren’t close enough for him to even call me that, sorry for your loss was cliché enough I try to walk inside to avoid Chris introducing me to Mason but he pulls me back, holding me by my waist“Meet my fiancé, Bella, we’re getting married soon” he introduces me to Mason“She’s beautiful and shy I might add” Mason remarks Chris looks at me and notices that my head is down, I can tell he’s a bit disappointed as he releases his hold “Hi” I manage to force a smile and reply to mason before making my way inside the church leaving them both to it

NICOLE“It is no secret that Nicole and I were not the best of friends or business partners when she was alive but she was a leader in our industry, at the forefront of innovations that constantly put the rest of us on our toes, she was a woman leading in an industry dominated by men and for that, dead or alive, she will always have my respect. On this note I am donating ten million pounds to her foundation and all the charity organizations that she supports” I hear Chris spill from the podium Did he really mean those words? Did he really see me as a woman leading an industry dominated by men? This is the same man who just days ago said he was going to wipe the floor with me, he couldn’t be serious, he was doing it for the press definitely “We can leave now” he says as he gets to me, stretching his hands for me to take themAs soon as I do, he pulls up and holds me by my waist and we stride out of the church.I turned back to glance at my photo one more time, I was really gone, Nic

NICOLEReading Ben’s text at first made me feel bad that I was losing the contract to Chris but then I remember that I wasn’t losing anything, Mason and Claire were, it hurts me that it’s my company but there’s nothing I can do nowRico foods cannot just pull out of the contract though except Mason and Claire forgot to submit the papers, because we were reviewing it the night they murdered meThe universe is really behind me, I haven’t even figured out a move on them yet and they lost the contract already, first of many blows to comeI don’t know if it’s the joy from the news or Chris’s soft hands on my feet but I’m beginning to feel really really good.I never pictured him to be this sweet, he always puts down women but here he is, diligently massaging my feet, the high and mighty Chris BaleHe’s smiling at me again.

NICOLE“Welcome Mr and Mrs Bale, nice to have you here today, we have a few samples ready for you to see” the manager of the prestigious House of bling was welcoming us into one of their stores”Chris and I had just signed the marriage certificate this morning as well as our agreement, but his lawyer advised that we have a proper marriage ceremony to make it look more legit especially now that his mom is in the pictureSo we are here to shop for our wedding rings, Chris had earlier called the manager of ice gallery on our way here but I suggested that ice gallery weren’t exactly the first choice for diamond rings, even though he was surprised how I knew anything about diamond stores, he still called them to inform the manager of our arrival.House of Bling is the go to honestly, they have the best jade and diamond rings, that's where I and Mason got our wedding ringsThe thought of Mason makes my blood boil, that traitor, and as if on cue I see the devil and his advocate the moment we

CHRISIt’s only been a couple of weeks since I met Bella and somehow she’s managed to do something to really piss off my biggest business rivals First she puts the man down for wanting to get engaged so soon to his dead wife’s PA and then she physically assaults the PA in questionShe is a handful but I find it very attractive, her sharp tongue and wit are just something else, good thing Ben got the notification when he didIf the video had spread further, we wouldn’t have been able to contain it, Bella literally spilled their private information to the world and I didn’t want her in the public light as a troublemaker and that cost me 2 million pounds, paid to the blog who had posted the video on their page to take it downMom was another trouble entirely, she’s been probing about my relationship with Bella, she’s called her a gold digger so many times now, after she left my office that day, she actually had paid Barrister Antonio a visit.Everyone is in on making sure mom doesn’t fi

CHRISBella had texted me earlier to meet her at Fish Harbor for lunch if I wasn’t too busy. I declined earlier but something just made me change my mind.I hadn’t seen her since breakfast and frankly i missed her company a little, I think she’s slowly growing on me, she has this vibe that just makes you want to be with her all the timeBen came over to the house and we were going over some papers and our final presentation for the Rico Food deal so I made him tag along to the restaurant.I enter and see Bella munching down on her food with Charlotte sitting opposite her.I heard Charlotte when she came over to the house earlier but I never thought she would be her shopping partner today.You know it’s actually surprising that someone as charming and charismatic as Bella has no friends whatsoever or hasn’t mentioned anyAs we are walking towards them, I suddenly notice Bella raise her wine glass at someone, looking straight ahead, giving a slight nod and a smirk on her faceI look in

CHRIS It’s finally our wedding day and standing at the altar right now, looking down the aisle and seeing all these people and press gathered gives me mixed feelings On one hand, I’m pretty uncomfortable, if it wasn’t for mom, I wouldn’t have to go through this, on the other hand, I was glad this day had come and now I can put it behind meBella would make a great wife for any man, that I’m sure of but in our case, we are just in business, she’s just here for the money, fame and status that I offer in exchange for the facade she’s helping me put up for the next two years and I must say I am quite surprised at how fast and how well she’s adapted to life as a Billionaire’s wifeShe’s even managed to convince mom of our relationship as the two of them have been spending some time together plus breakfast and dinner now have a lighter atmosphere but I cannot be so sure, my mom is a very smart woman and she may just be getting close to Bella to play Trojan horse.The wedding hall is beaut

NICOLE*FLASHBACK*“Sure Ma I’ll follow you to church” I said forcing a fake smile when Mrs Bale asked after I woke up to her standing over me and her son in bed“Stop it with the Ma stuff, you can call me mom or Tracy, afterall I’m going to be your mother in law” She said and exited the room Chris stood there looking in bewilderment not understanding what just happened, he rolled his eyes at the door as if his mom was still standing there before saying to me“I don’t trust her, be careful, remember she must believe it’s a love marriage” “Don’t worry, I can handle myself” I say to him and kiss him before getting out of bed to get ready for church that sunday Chris offered to go with us but his mom declined accusing him of not wanting her to spend some time with me, in her own words he was a block between her and her precious daughter in-law bondingThe church service was actually great, I enjoyed the songs and hymns from the choir and the preacher gave a very good sermon on forgiven

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. I’m the only thing close to a si
