THE BILLIONAIRE'S DESIRE CHAPTER 42
"Do you have anything to say about this, or should I proceed? I don't want it to seem as though I am saying things that never happened. I might be a bit nasty but at the same time, I am quite considerate." Kelly asked Dexter genuinely with a smiling face. "You son of a bitch! How dare you ask me such a question? Are you trying to spite me or what? What difference does it make anyway? You already started by making life complicated for me. Why don't you finish what you started already? If you had allowed me to handle this my way, I wouldn't have found myself in this mess. Instead, you choose to act like the Boss you would never become in your entire weird life,” Dexter fired back at Kelly without looking back. He carefully selected his words as everyone paid rapid attention to him. Dexter might have sounded rude to Kelly, yet everyone admired his bravery and how he stood up for himself. They haven't witnessed anything like that before. Dexter's heart was beating faster like the drum

"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

“Do you enjoy wasting people's time, or it's a habit you just developed?” George snarled. He swore not to get himself involved in another heated moment with the cops anymore. Unfortunately, Rhoda pushed his button, forcing him to go against his will.“That's Officer Lucas. He's going to attend to you. He's responsible for this case,” Rhoda confessed just to roll the burden away from her heart. “You bitch! You had to find a way to force me into this mess. I am going to make you pay for what you just did.” Lucas threatened Rhoda. He was sending signals to Rhoda not to point at him, but she wasn't paying attention. Guilt and anxiety had taken over her soul. The only thing she was interested in was seeing Dexter and his Father leave. “I am sorry, Sir. I had no choice I was under immense pressure,” Rhoda apologized. Unfortunately, the apology was rejected immediately as Lucas continued to yell at her. “Keep your damn apology to yourself. I don't want to hear it. Why didn't you te

Five minutes had gone past and Dexter was still chewing his nails, thinking of his decision. He feared making the worst decision that was most likely to ruin his life for good. As much as Dexter hated being locked up in the police station for too long and would do anything to buy his freedom, he still wasn't satisfied with his Father's decision. He wished his Father would reconsider his decision and have mercy on him. Getting married to Ciara wasn't what Dexter had envisaged in his lifetime, because they never liked each other from the onset. He never for once, found Ciara worthy enough to be his girlfriend, let alone his wife. He had a feeling that the marriage wouldn't even leave for a week before they finally got divorced. “You should know that being kept quiet is what I hate the most, Dexter. Yet, you keep doing it to me. Do you think I'm here to look at your ugly face? I've got other important stuff to worry about. Instead, I chose to come here and save your sorry ass.

"My son? What the hell are you talking about, Kelly? I can't see anybody here. Please where's Dexter? Or have you started imagining things? Perhaps, we should have your head examined because it's obvious that you're losing it already," George taunted Kelly. But it was Dexter who felt it the most. Dexter felt humiliated by his Father's derogatory remarks about him. To Dexter, that was worse than being abandoned in the police custody. That was the moment he wished that his Father never agreed to show up. Because the presence of his Father makes no difference to him whatsoever. "Now this is getting serious, George.When did you suddenly become a comedian? Are you saying that you can't recognize your son anymore or what?" Kelly frowned. The whole thing was starting to look like a joke to him. He doesn't understand George anymore because that wasn't their initial plan. George stood up and pointed towards Dexter. "Kelly, take a good look at this man standing here. Does he have any s

Rhoda hasn't rested since she escorted Dexter to see his Father. Rhoda wasn't with them in the visitor’s room but her heart won't stop beating faster. This was the only time she ever wished that Dexter would be granted bail by his father so she could be free from the pressure the coopers had heaped on her. As Rhoda mauled over her thoughts, Lucas walked past her unnoticed. He returned to her duty post when he noticed that Rhoda refused to acknowledge his presence. "Hey, Rhoda. How's it going with you?" Lucas waved at Rhoda to get her attention. He did that the second time, yet there was no response from Rhoda. Not even a blink of an eye. It appears that she was lost in profound thought judging from the way she placed her hands below her jawline. Fed up with seeking Rhoda's attention, Lucas slammed the desk In frustration to awaken her lost soul. "Good day, sir," Rhoda hurriedly greeted Lucas and did the salutation to welcome him. "How long have you been standing here, sir?"

He threw the car keys to Romeo and pointed to a blue Lexus Rx car. "You see that over there? That's the one we are going with," "We are here now," Romeo announced. It was a twenty-minute drive. The shortest drive that George has ever had. "So fast?" George asked. He thought it was gonna be a long journey. "Yes, so fast. I could understand your reaction. It's because it's your first time," Romeo explained. Then he went ahead to narrate everything that needed to be known about the station. He laid more emphasis on Rhoda and Officer Lucas than anyone else. To him, those two were the real vampires of the station. "I've heard everything you said. We will be back in ten minutes," George told Romeo as they stepped outside. "Ten minutes? I seriously doubt that," Romeo laughed. He can't see how that will be achieved when Rhoda and Lucas are In the picture. "You took the car keys, didn't you?" Kelly reminded George. He has been harboring that question In his mind for a while now."O

Kelly and George went back to Romeo with a different kind of mood that seemed a lot more encouraging. Most especially George, who almost kicked Romeo out of the house a while ago because he thought that Romeo was an imposter. “Are you both done with the private talk already? What was the conclusion? Do I need to stay or leave?” Romeo asked in anticipation. Romeo's heart was beating faster. He saw the smiles on Kelly's face, yet he wasn't convinced. The last time he checked, George was Dexter's Father and not Kelly. He still can't fathom how Kelly was putting in more energy in the case than George, who's the biological father of Dexter. Now he knows why no one has shown up to bail Dexter yet. “We have agreed to come with you to the station to see Dexter” George finally agreed. He had to glare at Kelly before responding. “That sounds like a great idea. I bet Dexter will be so happy to see you. He can't stop talking about you. However, we might have a slight problem,” Romeo frown

“Are you seriously mocking me now? What do you mean he's gonna show up? Did he disclose that to you? Or you're the one making false assumptions just to please me?” George flared at Kelly.“Oh, here he comes,” Kelly called George's attention as he pointed at someone from a distance. “I told you he wasn't gone. You should have listened to me. I guess you owe me an apology now,” Kelly bragged. “You again? I thought you were gone?” George acted surprised. He pretends not to care about Romeo's return. But deep down, he cared the most. His ego was just preventing him from speaking the truth.“I never left. I had an urgent call that needed to be answered in private. Well, here I am now. Do I still need to prove myself to you?” Romeo explained. From the atmosphere around them, he was already feeling optimistic that George was going to let him in.“No worries, Do come in,” Kelly welcomed Romeo after waiting for George to speak. Considering how egocentric George was, Kelly was damn sure t

“Yo! Dave. Can you please come take this empty glass away? And thank you for the drink. I appreciate you. I must say, you are quite nice. Don't stop doing good. It's only a matter of time before your reward comes,” Kelly said to Dave. He saw Dave passing by and decided to call him.Dave was stunned by Kelly's gesture. None of George's visitors has treated him in such a kind manner before. Not even Dexter, Derek, or George's business partners. “It is my pleasure to serve you, sir. Thank you for the advice. It means a lot to me,” Dave smiled and left with that tray.Kelly won't stop checking his wristwatch. He was getting fed up with George's constant delay.“What's George doing out there? I thought he promised not to stay too long.” Kelly's soliloquies as he waited for George to be done. He can't even see the face of the person that George was speaking with at the doorway.“What did you say your name was again?” George asked yet another question. It appears that he wasn't too pleas

“Just forget about Derek. Welcome to my humble abode. Would you like me to get you something to drink?” George forced a smile to make Kelly forget about the issue. He proceeds to call Dave. “ Hey, Dave. Go get my friend a glass of red wine. Make it snappy. He is my best friend. I wouldn't want you to keep him waiting for too long,”“No, please wait. I don't need anything for now. I didn't come here to be entertained,” Kelly hurriedly stopped Dave just as the latter was about to leave. “Dave, you just heard from my friend. You can now head back to your duty post. Don't return until your name is heard,” George ordered as he dismissed Dave, leaving him alone with Kelly. “What took you so long to show up? I was worried that you were never going to make it here,” George asked Kelly as they both sat down after a handshake. Kelly nodded sideways in pity. He wasn't looking happy, and George could tell that it had nothing to do with Derek. “Kelly, what's the issue? It's your daughter,
