STOLEN HEARTS : A Billionaire's Deceptive Love The Father
AdrianI am so excited today as I get to spend it with my daughter, Amy. It was so hard to get Meghan into co-parenting ever since she moved out of the house. I will admit it has been extremely lonely living alone in such a big house even with the workers in. It kind of reminds me of the days back in university as a bachelor. I get to have Amy on weekends as I am very busy during weekdays. I am driving to Meghan’s while blasting off some old RnBs. I wonder if Ellie is having a good day, why am I even thinking of Ellie? Our last encounter was when I found her talking about me with that best friend of hers. I was a teeny bit offended that she would not want to give me a boner I am not sure why but I was. I mean she looked so sexy in that suit. I had to keep reminding myself not to stare. It was a bit cheeky of me to comment about it though but I want to get in her head so bad. Still, I do not know why but I just do. I am deep in my thoughts as I pull over to Meghan’s. I hate this place

Ellie“Oh my God! Why didn’t you tell me he is that hot? Damn, Ellie, you made it seem like he was a devil but trust me if that is how the devil looks like I do not mind being his demon. Did you see those biceps? I bet he works out,” Reina says immediately Adrian is out of sight sounding a bit too excited.“He is not all that, trust me he is bitchy, arrogant and so rude,” I say and at this point, I am not sure if I still believe he is that bad.“You say that because you are into him as much as he is into you. I can see it in both your eyes no matter how much you deny it.”“Hell no, I hate him,” I say as I move away from Reina. I am such a bad liar and even I could see that I did not mean that I hated the guy. I do not like him but I do not think it is hate.“You know what bestie, I wish you could be true to yourself and let yourself explore whatever this is,” Reina says holding my hand.“No, I can’t let myself close to him, I stole from the man. I cannot hide that from him if we

Adrian“I do not know man, I just went to the hospital as fast as I could. Something in me told me it was the humane thing to do,” I say as I swing my golf stick. I hate golf but Leo loves it so he sometimes manages to drag me out for golf. Today is one of those days that he succeeds plus I need to talk to him about what is happening with me and Ellie.“I knew you would fall for her. She is your type man, what are you waiting for?” He asks as he pats me.“Man I am not sure what is happening honestly and I am scared. I do not want to be in love, I cannot handle that right now with the company falling apart,” I say as we drive to wherever the fuck I had just thrown my golf ball.“There is no good or bad time for Cupid to strike, she just does. Just make sure you do not lose the love of your life because you are startling.”“How do you know Cupid is a she?”“It just makes sense for her to be a she, how can she be a he? Girls love bows and pink arrows,” he says as we get to the golf b

EllieI am standing there at the door looking at my boss with two different flowers in his hands. He looks so good and casual. His muscles threatening to burst out of that so-fitting t-shirt he is wearing. I have never seen him so casual, so beautiful and the cap just accentuates it all. He doesn’t have to put much effort to look good. I had just spent the whole morning looking for the perfect outfit and applying makeup. I did not want to do too much but still not too little. I still cannot she off the fact that he asked me for a date. Adrian Sage asked me out on a date! I realized that I had stood at the door staring at this man for a couple of seconds now.“Hi, I am so sorry. Come on in,” I say ushering him in. Dad was in his sick chair in the living room watching some TV. I lead him to the living room. It is a bit small but since it has been me and Dad it is quite sufficient.“These are for you,” he says handing me some beautiful pink tulips and a box. “These are for you Sir, I wi

AdrianI run into the company building. No, this cannot be happening again. I almost trip on the stairs as I approach the reception area. What the actual fuck! God knows I cannot handle another break-in.I get to the corridor leading to the server room. Dave and some IT people are there. A pang of fear fills in my stomach.“So, what happened? I ask immediately after I get there and there is panic written all over my face.“It was a false alarm, Sir. Sandra from billing was trying to access some of the computers here and ever since the incident anyone who is not part of the IT was denied access to the room from our system,” Dave says as I sigh in relief.“Did she know that she could not access it?”“No, we had not informed other departments due to confidentiality. She thought just as before she could be able to get in. Once she tried, the alarm went off and notified all of us,” Dave says as he follows me across the room.“Did she say what she wanted to do in here?” I ask as I star

Ellie“Why do I need to carry a bikini set? We are not going for a vacation for Christ’s sake,” I say as I remove the bikini that Reina had just folded in my suitcase.“You never know. What if there is a pool where you will be staying? What if Sexy Addy wants to go swimming with you?” She says as she aggressively folds it back in the suitcase.“Why the fuck would you call him Sexy Addy? That is gross.”“Whaaat he is sexy. I saw those arms so I know what I am talking about.”“Besides I doubt we will swim. It seems like this trip is a really important business trip for him. I am just something to make sure he gets his deals,” I say as I sit on my bed next to Reina.“Any dumb person can see that the dude is interested in you. You know you will spend a lot of time together during this trip. Anything can happen,” she says as she lays her head on me.“I do not know if I can handle it. He is my boss. He is the guy I stole from, how can I keep hiding that from him? He doesn’t deserve me.

AdrianI could not sleep last night. Why would she tease me like that and come downstairs wearing shorts? She looked so damn sexy! I wanted to rip off her clothes right there and then. I should address whatever the fuck is happening with her as soon as possible. I have to meet up with my potential clients in the morning and make them fall in love with my proposal with Ellie’s help then I will have the whole afternoon with her, alone. I must talk to her then. I take a shower and put on a black suit and a sky-blue tie with cuffs. I head downstairs to have breakfast before we leave. As I approach the dining table I see Ellie seated. She has on an emerald green suit and her hair is in a slick ponytail. She looks so composed and beautiful.“Good morning Ellie,” I say as I take a seat across from her.“Good morning Sir,” she says with a mouthful of bacon. I chuckle at how cute she looks.“How did you sleep? I hope the bed was comfortable enough for you.”“Oh my God it was the best. I d

EllieAdrian has not said a word to me since the meeting. I get that he is angry but we would not have gotten the deal if he was that rigid in his proposal. I mean, I came to his aid.“Hey, I am sorry if I said anything that seems like was in opposition to you but I had to,” I say immediately after we get back to the house.“You cannot go behind my back and pitch things we had not agreed to in the first place,” he says and I can clearly see rage in his eyes.“I know that and I am sorry. It is just that desperate moments call for desperate measures.”“You made me look bad and undermined my authority. I think you have forgotten who I really am to you,” he says as he comes closer to me and I honestly get scared. I do not think he can physically abuse me but I do not think I have ever seen him like this before.“And who is that really? My boss, who secretly wants to fuck me?” I instantly regret those words immediately they come out of my mouth.“Do not pretend as if you do not want me to

STOLEN HEARTS : A Billionaire's Deceptive Love EPILOGUE
“It is almost here Mrs. Sage. One more push,” the nurse in the delivery room says to me. I scream as I give one final push and I am rewarded when I hear a small cry. My son was finally here. I am crying as Adrian holds my hand and kisses me.“You were so brave my love,” he says and holds me.“Mr. and Mrs. Sage, here is your bouncing baby boy,” the nurse says as she hands me the baby wrapped up in a white shawl. He looks so tiny as he wriggles his hands and feet. I cannot believe I have a son. Tears of joy flow down my cheeks as Adrian leans over and kisses him. I have a son!Amy walks in the room and she is so excited to meet her baby brother.“He is so small I feel like I can break him,” she says as she holds him and we all laugh. My little happy family.“I want to name him after my father, Thomas. Thomas Sage,” I say smiling at Adrian as he holds him.“Hello Thomas Sage. I am your father and I love you so much,” he says kissing him again. I am so happy. I finally have my own litt
STOLEN HEARTS : A Billionaire's Deceptive Love The Wedding
EllieI hope the dress will still fit me. I have added on some weight ever since I fitted it on. I am getting married today! I am finally getting married to the love of my life. I cannot imagine that we got this far. After everything, we just found our way back to each other. I would have it no other way. I am avoiding eating anything today. I already feel so anxious and I do not want to add to it by eating anything in the morning. I have not seen or talked to Adrian since yesterday. It is bad luck for the groom to see the bride before the wedding. There are a dozen people in my room right now. One is doing my hair, the other my makeup and the other is checking my nails. My thoughts are elsewhere as I let these strangers do everything to my body. I have 3 more months before the baby comes so I am not scared that he might come today. I wish my parents were here though. I wish my dad could walk me down the aisle. I wish they were here to see me so beautiful in white. I still remember
STOLEN HEARTS : A Billionaire's Deceptive Love The Question
AdrianI have decided. I will ask her today. I will ask her to be my wife today. I will propose to Ellie. There is no doubt about it now. She is the love of my life. I love how she just makes me feel. I love how hardworking and kind she is to everyone. I especially like how they are with Amy. She is just the best. I have seen how hard she has worked in building White and Co. Yes, I have helped her here and there, but she has brought that company from afar. It is now a month from when she started the company. White and CO were featured among the fastest-rising companies of the year. I also love how beautiful her belly bump is growing. I like talking to our baby as I rub her belly. She just makes the cutest mother ever. I love her with every fibre in my being. I have been planning for this day for the longest time ever. I want it to be perfect. I reserved us at the hotel where I once was to propose to her but found out about the pendant. I need to do it right this time. I have reser
STOLEN HEARTS : A Billionaire's Deceptive Love The Turn
EllieSitting there next to Adrian everything else does not matter anymore. I love this man. Despite everything I love him so much. Yes, I am scared, but I am willing to try again. If it means trying with him. I cannot even believe he is willing to support White and Co. I think I forgot the heart that this man owns. I think I forgot how nice and caring he is. I am getting money for the company for free! I had been thinking about bringing back the company for a while now. But the biggest obstacle was always the capital to start with. I gathered courage today and asked for a loan from Adrian and see how that turned out. I can never be happier. I get to have the company and the man back. I am going to work my ass off for that company. I need to make the White name great again. I feel happy. Here in his arms, I am happy. We lock eyes and I love him. I love this man. How did I get here? We hug again and Adrian leads me upstairs. We get to his room and it feels so nostalgic. I kiss him a
STOLEN HEARTS : A Billionaire's Deceptive Love The Move In
AdrianEllie is finally coming home to me. She called me yesterday and informed me that she could accept the offer. I could not have been happier to hear that. I was with Leo when she called. Finally, the universe is giving me a second chance to make things right with Ellie. Finally, I can have her back. I get to see her every day. I get to take her to checkups and watch our baby grow in her womb. I was so happy I drove straight home to Amy. She was also equally excited to hear that Ellie would come home. Now I am here waiting for her to arrive. I had sent some people to help her in the moving out. I had a meeting in the evening and could not make it to help her out. But I am sure she will not have to lift a finger. It is almost eight pm when I see the vehicles driving into the compound. I cannot hide the excitement especially when I see her getting off the car. I rush over to her. She has on black sweatpants and a T-shirt but looks as beautiful as ever.“Hey there,” I say walking u
STOLEN HEARTS : A Billionaire's Deceptive Love The Decision
EllieI love Amy. I love the energy she brings to me. I feel so warm inside every time she is around. But going back to live with them? I am not sure I can handle it. Seeing Adrian all around. It makes me feel happy and anxious at the same time. I want to be around Adrian but I am still not sure whether this is the right thing for me. What if something bad happens again when I am there? I already have a life here. I have a job, I have Levi, Mary and Paul. I am already forming something for myself here. Do I really want to leave it all? Just because Adrian asked me to? Just because Adrian wants his whole family together? Am I willing to take that risk? I really am not sure about all this. Amy and Adrian are preparing to leave. I have asked Adrian for some time to think about it. I need to weigh down all my options. I need to know and make the right decision for my baby. He comes first in my life.“I will miss you, Ellie; I wish you lived with us, and we could play dress up all day lo
STOLEN HEARTS : A Billionaire's Deceptive Love The Visit
AdrianI cannot stop thinking about Ellie and the baby. I have not yet told Amy about it. I plan to tell her tonight so that we can head over to Ellie’s with her tomorrow. She will be so excited to hear about it. She has always had a soft spot for Ellie. I hope Ellie can be that mum that she has never had and that she accepts to come back. I want to take care of her and the baby together with Amy. I want to have a perfect little family with them. I am planning to ask her tomorrow if she can come back with us. That way I will ensure that they lack nothing. I just want to win back Ellie’s heart again. At the company, things have been going well. I love how Job is working and everything he is doing. Throughout the week I have been so busy with meetings and signing deals. I even got a deal with the prestigious Stanford Enterprises. Working at the office has given me a sense of relief. At least my mind was occupied most of the time and I did not just sit down the whole day thinking of E
STOLEN HEARTS : A Billionaire's Deceptive Love The Playbacks
EllieDoes he really want to know me again? He wants to know my baby. I feel so distant from that. I want to go back to how things were with him. But do I know him anymore? Which Adrian is he? The one in front of me or the one who denied me in front of everyone. I cannot allow my baby to be brought up with uncertainties.“I cannot keep my baby away from his father. I do not want him to be robbed of his father,” I say after a long silence.“You know the gender. It boy?” he asks, his face beaming.“No, it’s just some intuition. I hope it is a baby boy, though,” I say, giving him a weak smile.“I hope it is a baby boy, too,” he says, returning my smile.“Well. I am not sure that things can go back to how they were Adrian. You hurt me too much. But I am willing to allow you to see your child. And for his sake, I can try and get along with you,” I say, and I hope I do not regret it in the end. It has always been my wish to bring up my kids in a complete home. I can try to get along with h
STOLEN HEARTS : A Billionaire's Deceptive Love The Approach
EllieMy hands are still shaking. What the hell was that? I felt a little happy to see him. Seeing him just made me realize how much I missed him. I still miss him. I still love that man despite everything he has done to me. He still makes me nervous and those few moments when our hands touched were the best. I felt some electricity go through me. I love him. I love him but he hurt me. He was apologetic, though, and sounded like he meant it. Maybe I should forgive him and start over. But I cannot make it that easy for him. He needs to earn my trust back. I need to know that he will stay by my side this time forever. I need to tread carefully. I felt bad not telling him about his baby yesterday., He would have been so happy to hear that we are having a child together. I should have given him my new number. Maybe give him a chance to make things better. It felt so nice seeing him again. I have not talked to Levi ever since we came out of the party. I owe him a lot of explanation. Toni
