There were smiles of their faces and a woman who was heavily pregnant was seated on a chair in the garden, smiling and enjoying the happy moment. She continued to watch them, and her heart swelled with a profound sense of liberation and joy as she basked in the warmth of her newfound freedom. After years of bondage and oppression, she was finally able to live life on her own terms, free from the chains of her past. With her loving family by my side, she felt a deep sense of contentment and belonging. The laughter of her mum, dad, Austin, Daniel, Collins, Clinton and her husband, Edward playing in the garden filled her heart with happiness. Their playful antics, a reminder of the innocence and joy that life had to offer. Every moment spent with her family was precious to her, a testament to the life she and Edwa

Is it for him?’, Richard asked with a sharp voice, his voice narrowing in suspicion.‘No, it’s for you. It has been two months since he touched me. You are the only man who had sex with me of recent and I am just two weeks gone’, Sophia said with her words hanging in the air, expecting Richard to say something.‘This is not the right time for you to be pregnant for me. If it is for him, that’s fine, as it would hasten up our plans but not for me’, Richard said , with a dissatisfying look on his face.‘What the hell are you trying to insinuate now? Are you trying to tell me to get rid of my baby?’, Sophia asked, with her confusion turning into anger and trying to decipher what was going on in Richard’s head.‘You will have to do that if there is need for us to do so.

Her hair was styled in a cascading curl, adorned with a veil that frames her radiant face, her makeup was soft and naturally enhancing her features and highlighting her glowing complexion. She looked at herself in the mirror and she smiled as she realized her dream of having a perfect family was about to come true.

THE BILLIONAIRE'S PERFECT MATE The Bitter End and New Beginnings
Days went by and both Edward and Ellie had gotten back together. They stayed by each other’s side, healing their broken hearts. Ellie moved in with Edward as Richard had advised. Richard didn’t want him and Ellie to be together quite often as he didn’t want his affection for her to keep on growing. Nevertheless, that didn’t help as he kept on falling for her harder and his heart always ached whenever he saw the two sharing some special moments together. Richard and Ellie’s wedding which had been previously announced was cancelled, which made different headlines in the country. After some time, the two lovers decided to get married. The news of their wedding was a heavy blow on Richard and hurt his heart but nevertheless, he supported the woman he loved and made sure he partook in the preparation towards the event.

THE BILLIONAIRE'S PERFECT MATE Finally Letting Go
Two weeks passed and by this time, both Sophia and Jack had been arraigned at the court. With the evidence provided by Jack and Ellie anonymously, Sophia was found guilty of the murders of Pamela, Jack’s lover, and Kevin. She was sentenced to life imprisonment while Jack on the other hand, was sentenced to three years imprisonment for being an accomplice. Stephanie became a shadow of herself as right in front of her, she lost everything. She lost her wealth, her status and her children. Anytime she visited the prison to visit her children, none of them agreed to see her and would turn down her request. Her heart was shattered, and she didn’t know how to carry on with her life after having lost everything. She wasn’t the only one feeling that way as Edward was also in the same shoe as her.

THE BILLIONAIRE'S PERFECT MATE Blood Ties, Broken Bonds
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. He had trusted him with his whole heart and if someone had told him he would get betrayed by Richard, he wouldn’t have believed it due to th
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
