THE BILLIONAIRE'S DESIRE CHAPTER 43
"So why the sudden change of plan? Let me guess. You thought of something else and decided to do away with the old one? That's exactly what it feels like to me right now. Correct me if I'm wrong, though." Dexter became infuriated as he attacked Kelly. "Oops, my bad.I guess that wasn't the right question to ask. The question should be, what are your plans for my family? Wanna be part of my father's inheritance after his demise?""Dexter, please stop!" George commanded with a loud voice. Despite how ferocious he sounded, it still wasn't enough to shut Dexter up. He still went on to criticize Kelly. "How am I certain you are not the one putting those crazy ideas in my father's head?" "I said it's enough, Dexter. If you not gonna put yourself to order, I suggest you just leave immediately," George proclaimed. "Perfect opportunity to scale through this shit you putting in my head," Dexter concurred and hissed. As he was about to walk away, Kelly obstructed his view. "You not going n

"You still haven't told me what you are doing here, Derek. Do you realize what will happen if my Father finds you here? He could put you down," Ciara kept interrogating Derek. She didn't give him a breathing space to process his response before dropping more questions to him. "Oh, I didn't realize your father was a cop. The last time I saw him, he didn't seem like one,” Derek joked."That wasn't funny, Derek. You don't know how lame that sounds.I'm dead serious right now and I need you to do the same. My Father might as well get you arrested for breaking into his home unannounced. You even met with me. I guess you should understand what that means," Ciara clarified just to let Derek understand that she wasn't kidding. That response humbled Derek and left him counting his teeth with his tongue. He didn't realize that Ciara would be that tough. He thought she was gonna be a walk in the park for him."I'm still listening to you. I was waiting for you to speak but you aren't doing that

"I am deeply sorry for showing up late. It wasn't my intention to waste your time," Ciara apologized while placing the tray on the stool. She never for once imagined herself apologizing to Derek. Just a while ago, these two were close to exchanging punches against each other. After the apology, Ciara went ahead and poured some water inside the glass cup for Derek. To her greatest surprise, he didn't say anything nor did he make a move to drink from the glass. He kept staring at it like an art Exhibition. "So what now? Oh, you thought I poisoned you?" Ciara snapped her hands after struggling to find out the reason for Derek's awkwardness. "We never can tell. I mean, you never liked me. Considering how we started, you might be capable of that," Derek admitted. "Okay. That's enough. Tell me that was a joke?" Ciara fumed. She was already replicating the same bad energy they started with. "Of course, it was a joke," Derek burst into laughter. He couldn't maintain his straight

"I promise you, Doctor Escobar. This is gonna be worth your time. It would be different from those times I usually stress the shit out of you. After this session with you, I promise not gonna burden you anymore with my problem," Kelly assured as he attempted to calm the impatient doctor. "And you expect me to believe that cheap excuse from you? What do you take me for? A kid?" Escobar raged as he doubted Kelly's promises. They sounded too good to be true. That was the same excuse Kelly usually had each time he needed Doctor Escobar's assistance. "Not this one. You gotta believe me," Kelly pleaded for Doctor Escobar's attention."Believe you? Do you have an idea what that means? Why did I ever agree to pay attention to you? I should have just ignored you as though you never existed," Doctor Escobar sighed in frustration. He was starting to regret his decision to pick interest in Kelly's situation. To him, it was going to be an easy feat. Unfortunately, it turned out to be somethin

For the first time in a while, Dexter was terrified about his father's presence. It's not as though George had gigantic horns fixed on his forehead. In normal circumstances, Dexter would have walked away without looking back. However, due to what was at stake, he decided to stay back "Did it ever for once occur to you that Derek is your biological brother and not your half-brother? Both of you were born to the same parents. You also have the same blood running through your veins," George asked Dexter from his hospital bed. Dexter was unable to respond because he knew that was a rhetorical question. Although, George wasn't thinking in that direction. He thought Dexter was gonna provide a breathtaking response."That's exactly what I thought. I knew my instinct wouldn't deceive me. Your silence was the only response I needed from you and you did it." George concluded. He didn't give Dexter a second chance to process his response. Dexter surely knew what his response was. It was quit

“What else do you want me to say that makes sense? I still can't fathom. Where is the problem? Are you sure it's Dexter you're worried about or someone else? More so Is this the reason you've been restless?” Doctor Escobar asked. He was yet to understand the reason for Kelly's worries. “Unbelievable from you, Doctor Escobar. I can't understand why you are yet to see the problem, even when it's damn obvious.” Kelly bemoaned. Here, he was thinking that speaking to Doctor Escobar was going to solve his issues. “Calm down, Kelly. I suggest you go home and relax. You've been stressing yourself over George's situation. I am pretty sure that you will be fine after that,” Doctor Escobar advised. “No, Doctor, I don't need rest.I require advice.I'm old enough to know what I want for myself,” Kelly raised his voice at Doctor Escobar. He suddenly realized the bus mistake and apologized to Doctor Escobar. “Sorry, I yelled at you. It wasn't my intention. I was just overwhelmed with what has

“You want to get me arrested? Where's this coming from? Are you even listening to yourself right now?” Dexter clapped back at his Father with an immediate effect. He was unable to leave. The insult from his Father was too much to be overlooked. “Who says I can't get you arrested? I am not biased. I am very fair in my decision-making. I wasn't kidding when I said that neither was my mouth filled with water.” George affirmed without leaving any stone unturned. “Sometimes I wish your late mother never died. I sincerely wished she was here to see you act like this. I guess she will equally be ashamed of you. She has got many questions to answer. I doubt if you're my biological son,” George started another drama just when it felt like he had given up already. This time, the taunt hit Dexter in the head.He stayed quiet and faced the wall. Tiny tears dropped in his eyes. He was able to wipe them away. It took him a few minutes to regain himself before returning to his Father with reddis

"I know this may sound quite strange to you. I just have to say it anyway. I've come to apologize to you for the bad things I've done to you. I just hope you find a place in your heart to forgive me." Kelly forcefully said as though he was reading from a script. The words were too big to emerge from his lips. But somehow, he was able to spill Laughing so hard, Dexter said. "This has gotta be the greatest joke ever told in the history of mankind. Please say something else. I don't wanna believe that's the reason you are here. I would just pretend you didn't just say that to me,""More reason I was reluctant to come speak about it because I knew it would be quite difficult for you to believe me. Anyway, I knew this was bound to happen considering the way I treated you," Kelly said, facing the ground. The situation had made him lose confidence in himself. "Then you shouldn't have said it. What difference does it make anyway? My Father already hates me because of you. For that reason,

"You evil Bitch! How dare you lie to me? You made me believe that you had the phone. What the fuck were you thinking?" Romeo sparked outrageously. He lifted his hands and was about to hit Rhoda when Lucas quickly intervened and pulled him away."What has come over you, Romeo? Were you seriously gonna hit her? This was the same crime that got Dexter arrested. Do you intend to be locked up, too?" Lucas flared. Rhoda was already panicking. She was becoming uncomfortable inside the office. She hasn't witnessed Romeo reacting that way before. "I am sorry, Boss. But it was all her fault. Didn't you see what she did? She practically lied to me. Why did she have to do that?" Romeo continued to rant. He was uncontrollable. He still had his eyes on Rhoda. The only reason he hadn't punched her in the face was because of Lucas, who wouldn't let him. "Why are you acting like a dog? I can't recall admitting that I had the phone. You the one making false assumptions that aren't real," Rhoda f

“What are you scared of? I don't bite. Come on, take the envelope from me, and stop acting like a baby already. An officer like you shouldn't be fidgeting. Have you forgotten what I told you about being courageous? You never can tell, it might be your letter of promotion,” Lucas said. Romeo saw that as a trick and refused to fall for it. Without hesitation, he went to his knees immediately and pleaded for Lucas's forgiveness. “I am sorry for the things I did to you. None of them were intentional. I've learned my lessons now. Please, I don't want to end up like Tony. I deserve a second chance,”The dismissal of Tony still lives rent-free in Romeo's head like a movie. He wouldn't want his situation to be like that. “You don't want to end up like Tony, right? That's quite ambitious if you ask me,” Lucas scoffed.“I don't know what you are talking about. I can't recall what happened to Tony. Can you please remind me?” “You dismissed him because of Dexter Cooper, sir. Not just that, he

“He needs to reach out to his Father. His Father is not even aware that he's been arrested,” Romeo pleaded. He was ready to scrub both knees on the tiled floor just to prove how serious he was. “Now this is getting more serious than I expected. How much did Dexter pay you to do this for him? Because I mean, you can't go this for a total stranger you know nothing about,” Rhoda confronted Romeo with the disturbing question.“Excuse me?” Romeo fumed. “What do you take me for? Do you think I'm one of those hungry-looking cops out there who would sell their dignity for money?” “Perhaps, she might be right. No one knows the reason you are doing this,” A masculine voice interrupted them from close range.The voice sounded like Lucas. Where Romeo was, he prayed silently and wished it wasn't Lucas. Lucas, so far, has proved to be Romeo's greatest fear ever. He wasn't even confident enough to look into Lucas' eyes and speak to him directly, let alone confront him. “Good evening, Boss. You ar

“I am listening to you Romeo. Since you got here, you haven't said anything worthy of my attention. I just hope I am not wasting my time with you. Because I was doing something significant before you showed up,” Rhoda raised the concern. What Rhoda was concerned about was Romeo's lack of confidence. She didn't know him to be this shaky to the extent that he could barely speak fluently to save his life. “Of course not. I assure you, you're not gonna regret having this conversation with me, and I am not even kidding,” Romeo created the assurance. He paused afterward. Rhoda signaled him to speak further, but he missed the sign. Romeo made it seem like both placed a bet on the last person to hold his breath for too long. “What the fuck do you think you are doing? You've been quiet for some time now. I should have known that you were just wasting my time. What exactly do you want me to do for you? And I do hope it's something I can handle?” Rhoda asked for clarification. Rome

Dexter struggled to keep up with Romeo's tempo. At the same time, he struggled to breathe properly. He hasn't seen anything like that before. The taunting from Romeo got into Dexter's head. But what was he going to do about it? Absolutely nothing!He was willing to endure the present struggle and hope for a better tomorrow Dexter was quite aware of his numerous tortures in the hands of Jaguar and would rather not go back to that phase anymore. No one has ever inflicted so much pain on Dexter before since he was born. Not even his beloved Father or late mother.Jaguar treated Dexter as though Dexter were his biological son. It was an ugly experience for Dexter. He would give up an arm to forget about it. “Take a look at these bunch of keys.What do they mean to you? Do they ring a bell to you, or do you want me to spell it out so you would understand perfectly well what I am talking about?” Romeo asked, flashing the keys to the cell across Dexter's face. "They're the keys to yo

“Welcome to your new cell, Dexter Cooper. I hope you do like it here. What the heck am I saying? Surely, are going to love it. I mean, it's surely better than your Father's palatial mansion, isn't it?” Romeo teased Dexter with a burst of wicked laughter after they arrived at a new cell. Looking at it alone, Dexter hated it. He chose not to say a word about it to avoid getting on Romeo's nerves. It turns out that the former cell was more attractive and conducive than the new one Romeo brought Dexter to. The only difference there was Jaguar and his boys that made life a living hell for Dexter. Dexter spent lots of time scrutinizing in his new home. He was filled with regret and wished he hadn't wished for a transfer. But the thought of being beaten to death by Jaguar still scares him to death. “What are you going to say about this? You are taking too much time on something that isn't even worth that stress, and I don't like it. Are we going to spend the entire day talking about

"What do you expect me to do about this now? I still can't believe that you are seriously seeking my help. Everything is still a dream to me. Someone should please wake me up from the illusion before I go insane," Romeo said, slapping his chin to be certain he wasn't imagining things that weren't real. He still wasn't convinced about his decision yet. If Romeo was made to decide immediately without thinking about it, he would choose to walk away from the case just like every other cop. Not for once did Romeo like Dexter. These two have got a lot of history together. Thinking about the nastiest things that Dexter had done in the past is making Romeo have a second guess. "Please, take me to a new cell. I might end up dead once you leave. These guys threatened to torture me to death. Please come to my rescue. I don't wanna die," Dexter pleaded as hot tears rolled down his eyes. "You wanna be transferred to another cell? Now I see why you're being dealt with. What have you been smok

After spending the last few hours inside the cell, Dexter was already regretting his past actions. He wanted to call Officer Lucas and apologize immediately. This was the moment Dexter wished he had some superpowers. He wouldn't mind turning back the hands of time to avoid being arrested. That wasn't Dexter's first time getting arrested for doing something wrong, but somehow, the cell seemed different.He wasn't entitled to the privilege from his previous stint because his Father wasn't involved. Trust Officer Lucas to make life a living hell for Dexter. He secretly paid Dexter's cellmate to torture him to the point where he would wish for death instead."Are you ready to release the money to us now? Or do you want us to apply more pressure? Look around you, no one will come to your aid even if you decide to scream your lungs out. So, do the right thing now." A hefty-looking guy who goes by the name Jaguar threatened Dexter. He is also the leader of the other cellmates. Convicted

“Oh, please stop the hypocrisy attitude, Kelly. Stop acting like you and Dexter were on good terms before his arrest. He hated you with the whole of him. Here you are, ready to take a bullet for you. I doubt if he would be willing to do the same for you,” Doctor Escobar fired back at Kelly. He had no plans to indulge himself in the case until Kelly decided to become emotional. He had no choice but to react immediately. “Mr. Cooper, like I told you in the day, you will be discharged tomorrow. Please — try your best to avoid any trouble. I don't want you getting hurt. You should know what I'm talking about,” Doctor Escobar advised George. It might sound like a doctor's advice to a patient, but Kelly knows that Escobar was taking a jibe at him. “Thank you doctor I can't wait for tomorrow,” George smiled, shook hands with Doctor Escobar, and turned to the other sides of the bed. He tried his best to avoid any eye contact with Kelly, who had been there for him since he was hospitalize
