She looked like a fairy princess she had always been, before her mother passed away.Her mother, a designer, always made sure she adorned her with beautiful dresses. The gown she was putting on was the sketch she had drawn a day before her mother died and showed her the night she was burnt to death. The thought of her mother made tears rolled down her eyes, bringing back the memories of her childhood with her mother. Ellie felt that day was a big day for her.

"What? I don't understand what you are talking about," Ellie said to Clinton, who was still kneeling in front of her."I love you so much, Ellie. I have been meaning to tell you this, but I didn't know how you would react, which is why I stopped myself from telling you. But now, I can't hide it anymore," Clinton explained."Were you aware of this?" Natalia, who was in the dark, asked her husband, Collins."He actually told me about his feelings for her and his intention to propose just a few days ago," Collins responded."And you didn't notify me? I would have somehow prepared her mind. I am sure she is shocked and confused right now," she said.Ellie, who was confused, just stood still. She didn't know what to do. All eyes were on her, waiting to hear her response. She didn't want to embarrass Clinton in public and at the same time, didn't want to betray Edward.

"How did you find out about the pregnancy?", Ellie had asked Edward while driving home, feeling guilty for not telling him. "I found out the day you collapsed. The doctor told me and I didn't mention it because I was expecting you to tell me but you never did'', Edward said, focusing on the road ahead. ''I am sorry. I didn't mean to hide it from you. I just didn't know how you would feel knowing about it. I was scared you wouldn't want to have a child now'', Ellie said, in a low voice, avoiding Edward's gaze. Hearing this, Edward parked the car by the roadside and focused his attention on Ellie. ''Why did you think I wouldn't want this? I have been praying for this to happen. I feel like you are going to leave me and the only thing to keep you by my side is if you have a child for me. When the doctor told me that day, I was so happy and glad.

"How can he will his property to a dead girl?", Sophia said loudly. "Will you lower your voice? What if someone hears you? He doesn't know they died 10 years ago. When I first heard he was looking for her, I had doubt that maybe the daughter survived and which is why I asked Jack to run an investigation on the girl. Jack came back with no record of the girl and I have also been keeping track on the investigator your father tasked with the responsibility but he hasn't found anything yet", Stephanie said. "Since nobody seems to have confirmed she is alive, is there a need for us to be worried? I am sure she and her mother died in that fire 10 years ago. Let's leave this and talk about how to save my marriage with Edward", Sophia responded, feeling relaxed. "No need to be worried? Did you even think as to why your father started his search for her? Don't you think at all?", Stephanie yelled at her daughter, shaking her head. "Maybe he remembered her or something. He might had actuall
THE BILLIONAIRE'S PERFECT MATE A Fight for Freedom
The following morning, Ellie woke up to the chiming ringing of her cellphone. Getting up tirelessly, she reached for her phone on the night stand and the caller was an unknown individual. So as not to disturb Edward's sleep, she silent the phone and quietly walked to the living room to pick the call. "Hello, who is this?", Ellie asked, on getting to the living room and picking the call but she got no response in return. She had thought the network was bad and kept on saying hello, thinking the receiver was finding it difficult to hear her. After several attempts of getting the caller engaged and with no response, she decided to end the call. But as she was about hanging up, she heard the voice of the man behind her nightmare. "Hello, wifey", Kevin said on the other end of the line, making Ellie shivered and cringed on hearing his voice. Although he was not present, Ellie felt his scary presence just by hearing his voice.

"Don't come close to me", Ellie yelled, trying to get up from the bed and head to the exit. But before she could get up from the bed, Kevin moved towards her in a swift, and pinned her down on the bed, with no way for her to escape. "Please, don't do this", Ellie begged with tears in her eyes. "I am sorry, my love. You brought this upon yourself", Kevin said, leaning in. Ellie fought as hard as she could to stop Kevin but she couldn't overpower him due to his strength. And right there at that moment, Ellie was raped and molested. Despite Ellie's plead and cries, Kevin didn't stop."You are still as sweet as you used to", Kevin said as soon as he got up from the bed, after having raped Ellie. Ellie just laid on the bed, motionless, with tears in her eyes, overwhelmed by the horror of what had just transpired between them. On the day she was getting married and was supposed to be the happiest day of her life, she felt utterly broken. How could she have allowed for this to happen? At t
THE BILLIONAIRE'S PERFECT MATE Echoes of Tomorrow
"How did you find me?", Ellie managed to ask Edward, who was facing her. "I got scared thinking that you were kidnapped and I had no other option than to report you missing to the police. They saw the car dropped you here after watching the CCTV. Hence, the reason we found you here", Edward calmly explained. "I am so sorry for troubling you. I promise such won't repeat itself again", Ellie said in a low voice, which was evident that she was tired. "Can we head home now?", Edward asked, after noticing that Ellie was tired. Ellie responded by nodding her head. Edward drove Ellie home and all through their journey, none of them said anything. On getting home, Ellie sat on the couch in the sitting room, tirelessly. Edward moved up to her and also sat beside her. "Will you take a shower and head to bed?", Edward asked. "I will do just that", Ellie managed to say. "Okay. Let me run your bath for you", Edward said, getting up, ready to head to the bathroom. "Edward", Ellie called, up

In the small, starkly lit police station, Stephanie sat, facing her daughter who was handcuffed. She gazed at Sophia with a sorrowful expression as her face, lined with concern, guilt and helplessness. She blamed herself for her daughter’s condition and suffering. “How did it come to this?” she had thought as she reminisced on the decision she had made in the past. She felt she could have done better and if not for her greediness and over-ambition,she wouldn't be sitting where she was. Regretting how she had lived her life so far, tears rolled down her eyes as her heart ached seeing her daughter in such a pathetic situation. She could see the hatred directed towards her in Sophia’s eyes. It was evident that she hated her presence, but Stephanie couldn’t hate her for that as she knew she deserved to be treated in such a way. “My baby .........” Stephanie said amid her tears, stretching her hands forth to hold that of her daughter’s but before she could do so, Sophia gave her a “A
THE BILLIONAIRE'S PERFECT MATE Torn at the Crossroads
After driving for hours with no destination in mind, Ellie finally made her way to Cheetahs. She sat at the bar with her swollen eyes, staring blankly at the vodka the bartender had served her. The club was lively and rowdy with music blaring from the speakers, almost deafening her. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves, but she was the only one who wasn’t. She looked around the bar and everything had changed from what it used to be when she worked there. There were new faces around and all the old folks she worked with were nowhere to be found. She watched as everyone in the club except for her danced happily to the tune of the rhythm. She felt odd as she was the only being sitting in a corner, looking all sad and abandoned. Her gaze landed on a couple who were dancing gracefully and lovingly, and it was evident the duo was really into each other. The sight of them made her remember the first time she had an encounter with Edward. The wave of the beautiful moments they both share
THE BILLIONAIRE'S PERFECT MATE Shadow of The Past, Choices of The Heart
“And so? That’s the past and the past should remain as the past. You had your chance with her, but you missed it. So, stop being a crybaby and let bygones be bygones!!!!!” Richard, who had gotten over the shock of Edward’s outburst yelled. “What? Let bygones be bygones? Should that be coming from you? Have you forgotten what you did to me in the past? You whom I saw as my best friend and ally, slept with my wife countless times and got her pregnant. You both were even planning to pin your child on me, and you were aiming for my downfall. Don’t you feel bad for what you did to me? You were the only one I trusted the most. How could you have done that to me?!!!” Edward yelled, staggering towards Richard, with hurt in his voice. Although the betrayal he got from Richard happened six years earlier, he still felt the pain and the agony in his heart.

THE BILLIONAIRE'S PERFECT MATE Claiming What Was Lost
Ellie, Daniel and Richard were all at Daniel’s mansion, celebrating their victory. After Sophia’s arrest at the hall, they had dismissed the guests and they all had headed to Daniel’s house to celebrate their accomplishment. They were seated in his gigantic living room, toasting to their success and just then, a male figure walked in. The figure staggered and was walking as if he would drop dead anytime soon. He looked dishevelled and his hair was rough. The more he walked closer to them, the more the smell of alcohol filled their noses, evidence that the figure had drowned himself in alcohol for quite some hours. The sight of him made them halt in their celebration and confusion was hitched on their faces. There were strains of dried tears of the figure’s cheeks which showed that he had been shedding tears. When the figure finally got to where they were seated, he halted in his steps and turned to face Daniel.“Edward, what’s wrong? Why are you like this?” Daniel asked, as concern la
THE BILLIONAIRE'S PERFECT MATE The Sting of Revenge
Sophia stood frozen in place, her eyes were wide and unblinking as she watched Ellie walked onto the stage. Her mouth was slightly opened in surprise as she was finding it hard to believe the scene before her. Her lips were parted, trying to utter some words but the words wouldn’t come out. Her eyebrows were high raised, and a slight of furrows formed on her forehead, amplifying the confusion and disbelief etched on her face. “What ..... are you ....... talking about? She is the CEO?” Sophia finally asked, facing Claire who was standing beside her, with her finger pointed in the direction of Ellie. “Yes, she is. She is the CEO and founder of Annie Fashion Group. Hope you like the surprised we planned for you?” Claire said, as her smile transformed in an instant, revealing something far deeper than the polite, practiced expression she had always worn. The edges of her lips curled up slowly, but there was no warmth in the gesture. Instead, it felt calculated, sharp, as if the smile
