Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess Sneaky
Unknown POVI had managed to sneak into their home. As I watched her, something seemed different about her and it felt as though she was oddly shaken by something.Surprisingly, the guards were now back to following her around everywhere. She was on constant guard, but I thought nothing of that. Her face always remained the same – a mixture of sadness, fear, hatred, and anger all at once – and she never showed any emotion whatsoever. That suited my purpose just fine.I thought it was pathetic, it was going to need more than guards to stop me from getting what I wanted, but that didn't mean it wouldn't work. There were other things, things that I could do with my new knowledge about her, things that would make this plan of mine work out perfectly well. It wouldn't be easy, I'm sure, but everything would eventually fall into place in my favour.Even if it meant taking everything else away from her. The guards weren't going to protect her forever. She wasn't even safe.Was it because her

Darcy“All you have to do is deny that it's not me” Rhys stated as if it were the simplest thing to do and what was even more shocking was that I couldn't believe my ears.I stared at him as if he had grown another head. “Are… Are you crazy? That would be so hypocritical and I don't know what else it could be because your name isn't exactly in the dictionary of synonyms. Besides, you were bold enough to do it, why don't you just boldly take the blame for it?”I wasn't about to put myself on a plate as a scapegoat for it. I wasn't going to lie on his behalf.I was hurt and broken by my reality, this reality.I was in love with Rhys Madigan and he had cheated on me, again.This time however it hadn't been because I had caught him in the act or because Blair thought it was nice to just drop the news on me, this time it was on a gossip magazine.“Hot playboy back to his old ways?” and below this dump caption was a picture of a ginger-haired girl and Rhys, even though their faces were not s

RhysShe looked like she couldn’t believe me, different emotions ran through her face at once and it was hard to keep track of all of them.“All you have to do is deny that it's not me,” I explained to her, sounding as casual as possible as if it were the simplest thing to do. How was I supposed to know that somehow someone had taken pictures of me and the ginger-haired and sent them to the media as juicy gossip?It was suddenly everywhere, people called, my reputation was at stake and the possibility of losing the clients I had won over to my side was high.How could I be so careless? But it could be fixed, no one could tell that it was me, it was taken from the back, and those who knew me very well were free to be skeptical but I was going to prove that it could be anyone.The 5’2 woman in front of me kept staring at me as if I had grown another head. “Are… Are you crazy?! That would be so hypocritical and I don't know what else it could be because your name isn't exactly in the dic

Rhys “I can't go with you, I am unwell” She didn't look unwell to me, she didn't just want to be around me and that stung more than it should have because of my stupidity and pride and lack of self-control.Maybe I could decide not to take the bait and leave her there. I'm sure she was still upset about what I said to her, anyone would be but I didn't leave.“You don't look unwell to me” The words slipped from my lips before I realized what it meant but I'd already said them so there was no going back now. She looked down at her feet, twisting a strand of hair around a finger nervously or maybe it was out of anger but all I could tell was that her hands shook.“I am not in the right mental state to party especially with some snobby rich ass people who don't give two fucks about my existence and who can get away with anything. I am not them.” She looked at me as if challenging me to say something.But her words held the message that was directed to me and I got them, loud and clear.

DarcyFrom my window, I watched Rhys drive out a few minutes later after whatever squabble we had.He didn’t dress fancy so I couldn’t tell if he was going to the party or not, or maybe he was going to meet one of his numerous women.Jealousy crept up into my heart and I hated it for being there. It wasn’t his fault that he could do what he wanted with whoever he wanted at any time, without bothering me, but that doesn’t mean I can’t be jealous whenever the man who I love is spending time with someone else.Love?I needed to get rid of that feeling. It was unwanted and I didn't want it. He didn't want it either.We were just... together. That's all it was ever going to be. A simple arrangement. It should have been easy for me to understand that. I had also forgotten the main reason I was here, it was to get my son.“Claire, did Cory ever visit with her son?” I asked casually as if I didn't know the answer to that. The only time Cory came here with that child was to spite me and Clair

Darcy“I don’t want you to come with me” I said to the men who by now look flustered.“But sir said…” One began but I cut him off rudely.“I don’t care what sir said. I don’t want you guys hovering over me like a bunch of motherfuckers. I’m an adult, I can make my own choices and decisions without your damn supervision.” I finished, not waiting for their response.They were silent as if they didn’t know what to say. They’re probably too stunned about me saying all that to react any other way.I took their silence that they had gotten what I said. I walked past them as I made my exit. I ignored all the looks of pity. They knew better than anyone else how hard this was.When I was finally away from the house and away from the guards Rhys had gotten me, I breathed out relief but was fast to call a cab in case they decide to change their mind.It was only when I was in the car that I felt safe. After speaking with Claire, a silly idea had come to my mind and today I was going to where it

DarcyMy body shook with fear. My stomach turned and twisted in my gut, causing a nauseous feeling to twist around and turn inside my body. The sweat on my brow made me feel like I was suffocating as my head was swarmed by thoughts of what could possibly happen next. My heart skipped beats when I walked out of there.So many questions raced through my brain that it almost overwhelmed me.What am I doing here again? What happened today? How did I end up here? How did Blair come up with the idea to come here, how did she find out about this place?Was she going to tell Rhys?And thinking of Rhys, it didn't make sense that it had been him all along. The reason why I was alive, the supposed stranger who saved and paid for my surgery and who for once had not returned to the hospital to ask about the girl he had once brought it.Why did he do it? Why did he save me? I knew how much he hated me, the old Darcy, the girl that no longer existed.It all seemed like a lot to handle at once, and

DarcyI felt horrible. I couldn't believe that I could do that to someone. That I could hurt him, throw their insecurities in their face. As someone who has had her own fair share of that, I should have known better than to mention that he was cutting himself in a useless argument. No matter what happened, I loved him. More than anything else, I loved him. I had never meant to. I hadn't meant to hurt him that bad, I didn't want to hurt anyone. I was still in shock when Claire came by and pulled me by the hand.“Careful so you don't step on the shards of glass” She warned. “Come on let's get you cleaned up before anything else”.She led me to the bathroom where she gently washed off the rest of the blood that had found its way to my side. “Clean up, I’ll bring your food and then you can get some rest.”“I am not hungry” My voice was shallow and hoarse. I wasn't sure I even recognized it.Claire placed the towel on the sink counter and turned on the faucet. The water was running hot

Darcy“I love you, Tessa” His words made my heart race and the world stopped spinning around me. His voice was so calm but laced with determination.My knees gave up underneath me, I felt dizzy and weak. My heart was pounding and everything seemed to come to a standstill for the moment.How did he say those three words to me? I mean I loved him. Of course, I loved him, I loved him since forever.I had always dreamed of when I would hear him say those words to me, but this wasn't how I imagined that moment to happen. The first time I heard them, it was obvious it was because he wanted me to keep this child. And now? It was to make up for calling me stupid. Not once did he mean those words.YetI felt like I couldn't breathe, my chest heaved up and down as if I were running. Every fiber of my body was shaking, my legs couldn't seem to support me anymore.Why was he saying this? Was he really thinking that I would buy whatever he just said? Was it a trick to manipulate me?Or did he truly
Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess Revelation
Darcy“Try? Do you realize how stupid you sound? Do you? Why can’t you see the red flags? you are so gullible that you believe whatever anyone says to you. I've been betrayed before, I will always be betrayed, no matter what. And you seem to think that I am just like any other person? you think that I'll change because you tried to make me happy? You need to grow up Tessa! fucking grow up and get your head out of all those fantasies” I couldn't get them out of my head ; They stayed inside my mind like poison. I kept repeating them over and over, like the mantra, like the mantra that kept repeating in my mind.I knew he was right, I knew how cruel his words sounded . My mind was running wild, like I was going insane with the way it kept repeating those same words. It took everything in my power not to burst out crying on the spot. I was still breathing heavily and I didn't even notice when I stopped walking. I simply kept walking, taking long deep breaths. My body was shivering with s
Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess Hurting Her
Rhys I thought my head was going to explode from the pressure I was feeling at that moment. My heart was beating so fast I swore it would give out any second. I couldn't breathe. It seemed like I had forgotten how to and I was suffocating. I couldn't think straight, it just didn't seem real. All I could see were black dots. I was used to everything being black and white, it was easier to pick sides and focus on the side you have chosen but right now it was all blurry and gray, like looking through a thick layer of dust. Everything around me was dark except for those black spots, which weren't really spots, they seemed to be tiny holes in space. They made me feel sick and nauseous. Like I was drowning. Or maybe I was dying. But what kind of death?There was no lead or response from the contact I had reached out to. Mr Stark still wasn't allowed to talk to anyone, Vincent was still roaming freely after killing our grandfather.What was I supposed to do now, just collapse into a puddle
Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess Thoughts
DarcyIt had been three days, three days since I last saw Rhys. Three days of craving his presence, of missing him more than any other person I’d ever known, in ways I couldn’t quite explain to myself and would probably never be able to fully comprehend even if I wanted to. I didn’t know what I was supposed to do now that he wasn’t here- no he was here but far. I certainly hadn’t gone over the past three days planning an elaborate, intricate plan for what I could possibly say or do when I'll see him. It hadn’t crossed my mind once. I hadn’t done anything but stare at the door of my room as if it would magically make him appear.It was three days of wanting his touch, his kisses, and his arms around me every single second of the day. To feel the warmth radiating from his skin while we lay together on a bed, listening to the gentle patter of rain hitting against the window pane. To feel his lips pressed against mine, the taste of him lingering even after I pull away, the soft sigh of r
Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess Game Over
Unknown “What? why did you call me out here?” I demanded once I opened her front door. I glared down at her with eyes so intense and as always I expected her to cower away but instead she stared me down right back.“Because I wanted to see how you were doing, that’s why. And to ask why you had not called me to apologize for what you did the last time”I scoffed at her and shook my head in disbelief. “You expect me to apologize? You want to talk about apology when you are the one who is in violation of the terms of our deal. I am doing nothing wrong. I did what was necessary to keep myself safe from your unnecessary gossip and I refuse to let you disrespect my husband. You are the one who owes me an apology Blair” She looked at me confused, trying to find any signs of remorse on my face. She finally settled into shock at the fact that I hadn't just spat at her. “Unbelievable!” She snorted at me, rolling her eyes in disbelief. “You are unbelievable!” I couldn’t tell if it was a threa

Rhys“Didn’t I ask you to leave Claire?” I tried to control my voice but failed but the rawness didn't go unnoticed, the snarls from my voice were as loud as sirens.“It’s me,” I heard her voice and I turned to her. I wanted to ask if she was okay but she seemed a little nervous until I watched her whole body relax.With the way her large greyish-blue eyes were looking I could tell she was taking in my appearance and the look of shock on her face only confirmed that I looked like a mess, a total disaster.But it was nothing compared to the battle I had going on in me. The little voice in my head was begging to be released, to pounce on anything but I couldn’t let it, not when Tessa was here. I didn’t want anything to go wrong.I didn’t want to lose control and hurt her just like I had done with the guard, so I turned away from her scrutinising stare to focus on my walls which suddenly seemed almost peaceful, almost interesting.I could feel Tessa’s gaze, boring holes on my back and I
Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess Murderer
Vincent His arms were tied, mouth sealed while tears and sweat streamed down his cheeks to free himself from a strong grip. He tried desperately to kick away the arm holding him still, but that only made things worse for the man holding the other end of his chains. The men surrounded him, rough hands holding him back at each side as he fought against them with no success whatsoever. There was nothing he could do.I walked back to where I was and pulled the tape off his mouth.“Please Sir, I am sorry” He wailed. “Please, sir. Don’t hurt me anymore. Please, I beg you.” He begged me in vain. I ignored his pleas. I didn’t have the time to be nice. My mind was on something far more important at the moment than some silly human life. It wasn't about him, it never had been.“I gave you a simple job, I paid you for it, and yet, you failed me in my one request, you failed us all by your own incompetence.” He flinched when I spoke, his entire body trembling at the mere thought of what I was g

DarcyRhys stared at me in disbelief. His face showed pain and he struggled to control it.“I need to go” He suddenly announced.“Rhys…” I began but I didn't continue and he didn't stop either. I felt my heart ache once the door slammed behind me.I didn't come out of my room the next day, I wasn't sure what my place was in the house anymore, and I wasn't sure of what awaited me. I guess it was an act of cowardice, but what would you have had me do? what would you have done differently? Rhys didn't come back to my room, I didn’t blame him, I saw him fighting to keep his emotions in check, that alone was enough to make anyone want to take action against something they couldn’t control. But somehow I felt I was right.When I couldn’t deal with the tension and when my curiosity got the best of me, I left my room.The house was dead as a corpse, and my presence made no difference to any of it. It was as if the events of the previous day had taken its life, I could hear the maids whisperin
Revenge Of The Scarred Billionairess Blur
DarcyWe got back home, Rhys and I.By the time we returned, finding those photos was the last thing on my mind. We couldn't get to see Mr Stark as the doctor strictly advised against it. He insisted that the old man needed time to be monitored and need to rest properly without the bustle that came with visitors.I could not remember much from last night but when I woke up to a throbbing headache . It felt like someone was pounding on my skull with a giant hammer. My eyes were heavy and I could barely focus them. For some reason, I was in my bedroom- still in my bedroom. But I had the most bizarre feeling of déjà vu...“Relax” that musical voice told me. “You are safe now . No one will hurt you.” That voice… that beautiful yet cold voice was familiar to me somewhere...Rhys.My eyes that I had closed suddenly snapped open as I looked into his mesmerizing pair of sapphire eyes , staring back at me, as if he knew what I was going through.“No one is here to hurt you...”He repeated, rea
