THE WIFE OF A DISGUISED BILLIONAIRE 156
BLAIR’S POV I have been forced into a moment of deep thought and lamentations.‘Was all of this trouble going to ever end? when?’We had literally gone from trouble after trouble, from chaos into more chaos and now I was overwhelmed with it all. I did not want to continue. I wish I did not have to, but you felt too late to quit. On one hand, it was relieving to know that Brian was not dead. On the other hand, I was bepuzzled. ‘What in goodness’ name was going on?’I needed answers that it didn't seem I would be getting anytime soon, and now I had to process fear, doubt and anger and an immense worry. Luckily, no one knew that we had not moved very far from home. Matter of fact, Jane assumed the weird returned to Winchester or another state of choice. So, it was easy to stay out of trouble as long as we stayed out of sight, or so I thought. I just sat still in my father's company, lost in thoughts, when Ashley returned to report. “Blair, we have nothing in the house, absolutely

BRIAN'S POV It took quite a long conversation, but I finally walked Blair throughout all I knew so far. Neither of us was finding this development a welcomed one, but at the time, we decided to accept it as one of the obstacles to the love we had to deal with.“Remember, Blair, whatever happens, remain in the house.” I sounded a warning. “It's safe there. No one knows you are there.” Blair was crying uncontrollably, while we spoke and she barely said any words. “I love you.” I ended and hung up. “She's here,” Stacy announced. My desperation had pushed me to taking desperate measures. Jennice thought that my disguise to visit her was terrible and asked me to leave. She said she was going to drop by and she did the very next day. I watched her walked towards me and took a seat directly opposite me. “Even in the face of death, you're still out here staking it all for love.” Jennice said, rolling her eyes. “A good evening to you too, Jennice,” I responded in sarcasm. “I didn't t

BLAIR'S POV One day ran into days and into longer periods of absence and our communication gradually became more and more sparse. Brian was trapped in Winchester and since they assumed that he was dead, he had to resolve it before coming into light. My father had also not stopped tryung to indicate the presence of a file and even though he could not say so much, or anything at all, it was evident that he had something to say, especially about the company which was now in Jane’s name. Jane had began living her CEO life over the company, firing all the staff and living the company's gates shut, for a while. It was now, two weeks later, that she was reopening the gates, bigger and better. I watched her from a distance and we tried to stay out of her sight. Ashley went out and got some food stuff, as often as she could with her money, and we had to manage our resources to take us longer, so she didn't run into the wrong crowd on any of her outings. I got really tired it this lifes

BLAIR'S POV I hadn't gone for any files at all, but had to come up with something, after everything Jane said. My mind kept revolving around the state of Brian’s company.‘Was the company in trouble?’ ‘If it was, why didn't Brian say anything to me?’ ‘Was that why he ran away to Winchester?’‘Was all of this just a scheme to keep me away from the problem?’ ‘If Brian was innocent, why did he have to be in hiding?’ ‘Perhaps, he took the gold because the company was suffering and he didn't want to tell me.’ ‘Or was this all just a lie?’ I hoped. My thoughts were going in a million different directions and I wasn't sure what to think or say anymore. I snuck right back into my room, with a bag of my father's files, a very big, heavy bag and fell freely into the bed, landing on my back. It was the middle of the night, when I got a call from an unknown caller I.D. “Blair,” I immediately recognized the voice. He was of course, the only one to call my father's phone as the way of co

BLAIR’S POV My joy was boundless and I squeezed Sebastine in a hug, after I opened the door and found him with Blair. I didn't care how he found me, I was just glad that he did. “Glad to finally have comforting company, Sebastine.” I said, from a pure heart and with no disregard to Ashley. Ashley had been more than supportive over the period and I had come to love her so much, but sometimes, it was unbearable, just us and having to deal with a lot of crazy things that neither of us were equipped for. Despite her high Intelligence Quotient and how sweet and kind she was, it was evident that this was an overwhelming life that we had and it was worse than living in a garage and having to worry only about the things that we need to eat. “Blair,” Sebastine called softly, “what is going on?” He probed. “Brian asked that I come here as immediately as I could.” “He's afraid you'll hurt yourself.” Sebastine said, after taking a seat.“Hurt myself?” I chuckled, leaving Sebastine in shock

BLAIR’S POV I was filled with instant regret, but I couldn’t deny the sense of relief I felt after. It was almost like we had it coming ever since.Sebastine and I were bound by a strong attraction from the very beginning and even though fate did not intend us to be, it was quite difficult to be away from him, now that the environment just felt right. I struggled with the feeling of guilt and what made it worse, was Brian trying so hard to speak with me, but I only kept staring at my phone, until every call ended. Sure, I was mad and Brian kept trying to get me to speak with him, calling Sebastine a couple of times too, but I was too buried in guilt to speak. I understood my anger shouldn’t have taken the best part of me, making me act foolishly in such short time. Sebastine noticed my weak mood and detached behavior and came up to me after we both spent all morning staying away from each other. “Blair?” he called, as he carefully opened the door of my room. Sebastine sat acros

BLAIR’S POV “We can use this, right?” I asked. “This can pass off as evidence.” I grew very excited and hyper active. According to my father’s record, that night, he was intoxicated and had no idea what was happening. My father did not do a lot of alcohol, so surely Jane must have done something to him, or perhaps he was under duress. A contract signed under duress, can not stand. I couldn’t hold my peace, moved by the slightest chance that we could reclaim the company. I hugged Sebastine very tightly. He did not seem very happy or overly excited, but he was the most supportive. I tried to build a case around the information I had just found, and while I was at it, Brian’s call came in. “Brian,” I responded excitedly, which was not quite the reaction he was expecting. “Blair, Princess, I am so sorry,” he started, “Don’t ever do that to me again,”“Whatever it is, I promise we can talk about it, okay?” “We should never ignore each other because we are upset, alright?” Brian so

BLAIR’S POV “Blair!” “Blair, stay with me.” I kept hearing Sebastine call. His voice sounded very distant and the rolling wheels of the stretcher, made my blur vision even more unstable.I was hanging between consciousness and unconsciousness and I was in labor. My thoughts were going back and forth, and it felt as though I was hanging between life and death. This was not the happiest or easiest experience for me. My child wasn’t due until another few weeks, but the stress had compelled me into premature labor and this came with a lot of health risk for me. Luckily, Sebastine was there to help me, as a matter of urgency. Since I was already weak from not eating for up to a full day, the doctors had to go surgical with the process and in the next couple of hours, they extracted the child, just before I lost consciousness.I slowly opened my eyes to the familiar ceiling of Dr. Bruce’s hospital. My vision took a while to clear out and when it finally did, I recognized Sebastine’s

BLAIR’S POV My family was happy. I just became the owner of one of the high-ranking companies in Vegas. My boy just turned one, how could I not be ready. Now I could categorically say that my life had never been happier. All I had been fighting for, for as long as I could remember and now had, and the very last thing on my list, was getting married to the one man that had been able to love me, through thick, thin, storm, hails, the rain of fire, brimstone and Sulphur. Through fairly good times and the bad times, through moments where I struggled to love myself. I couldn’t be more delighted. Contrary to Brian’s request, we were having a quiet wedding with the people that mattered the most to us. The very ones who watched our love story began in the craziest of ways, the ones who loved us through the toughest times and encouraged us to love each other through what felt like the possible. Tears flowed down my cheeks, with no apologies whatsoever to my makeup, as II walked down the

BLAIR’S POV I stood in front of the court, with a racing heart. For the last three months, we had been going back and forth with the company’s case in court and this was the day for the court’s final verdict. With Jennifer’s help, we were able to pull down some of the board members, who were then in the picture and they had given their testimonies to the best of their knowledge at the time.Some of them had also patched their relationship with my father, understanding that at the time, he was being manipulated and couldn’t have been able to help himself. The others thought it was wise to maintain their distance, saying that they were only offering the help they could for mine and Jennifer’s sake and didn’t think it was necessary to have a continuing relationship with my father. In it and through it all, we were grateful that they even showed up, some of which were outside the country already, but all returned for a justifiable cause.“Common, let’s go. I know we have this.” Brian

BLAIR’S POV “Blair!” she ran to me with a hug,This was not one of Jennice’s tricks at all. It really was Jennifer. I was filled with awe. “What?” Jennice asked. “You really didn’t think I was going to let that evil sister of mine kill my only child, did you?” Jennice asked.“What?” I was still stunned. All of me was vibrating. “Oh, sit down.” Jennice said. “I had Jennifer when I was quite young and since my stupid lover would not take me and the child and I was still trying to find my foot in the world I was left to live in, I couldn’t keep her.” Jennice began to explain. “I figured it would be better for her to be in an orphanage, than out here with me and so I took her there.” “It ached my heart that I began to travel a lot and lost track of keeping an eye on her, so she began to go through so much stress.”“When I returned to fix it, I realized my twin sister was after her life.”“Jennifer really was involved in that accident that day, but I stole her from the vehicle and

BLAIR’S POV “I could not believe my ears. “Please, show up alone first.’ She pleaded. Before could be asked twice, I fled out of the house, swiping the keys to the car from the table.It wasn’t long after I left the house that I got a text with a location. I diligently followed, not thinking about whether or not I was going to get myself in trouble, or probably kidnapped. I still had my suspicions on who had called and all I could call it was suspicion, since I wasn’t sure yet and it would have been the most unbelievable thing. I followed the location and arrived almost in the middle of nowhere. There was nothing but trees all round I was beginning to think this was some prank call or an attempt at being kidnapped. If it was, I couldn’t even be mad and all I could now do was pray to be successfully out of here. ‘Maybe I had reacted a little too quickly.’‘What was I even thinking?’ I was lamenting and asking questions.I kept trying to reach the number over and over again, bu

BLAIR’S POV Sebastine did not wait to see his father before we left.Luckily, I could leave, although, with a bandaged arm. The bullet had been taken out and the wound was going to slowly heal and I was definitely going to keep seeing Dr. Bruce to make sure that I was fine. Sebastine signed every single thing in his name back to his father and he was leaving the Maldives to literally start a new life in Vegas. He chose us. My only excitement was that we arrived just in time to save him, because I wasn’t sure how I was going to react to losing another member of my family, especially to suicide. When we arrived Vegas, we dropped over at Brian’s house first. Sebastine was going to be living with Brian, before he is able to do anything else.He was done with college and could easily get a job, even though Brian had already promised to include him in the company. Sebastine, had declined both Brian’s, as well as my offer, to work in the company, saying he was tired of family ‘hand-m
THE WIFE OF A DISGUISED BILLIONAIRE 190
BLAIR’S POV We walked into Sebastine with a gun in his hand, just about to fire a bullet into his head. Brian flew for him and I could only stand there in tears, since I had Regal in my hands and couldn't quite get involved in any rigorous fights. Sebastine was hell bent on ending his life, as he began a struggle with Brian for the weapon. “Let it go, Brian!” He yelled, “you both, get out of here!” “Let me be!” He and Brian continued the war for the weapon. “Sebastine, no, please, I beg you.” Ever single word I uttered was choking in tears. “It doesn't have to end this way, please,” I continued. “What other ways does it need to end, Blair?” He probed, “huh?” Luckily, Brian was stronger than Sebastine, sho had spent quite a number of days, without food, but this did not in any way deter the struggle. I took a few steps closer, towards them, trying to beg Sebastine to let go already. “Argh!” I groaned in pain, as a bullet flew out of the gun and right for m the region between

BLAIR’S POV At this point, I was giving up on everything. I was losing hope and thought about letting the company go, but my father was still out here fighting and if he was not giving up, I couldn’t throw all his hard work by doing same. I was quite weary of it all, but had to continue. If there was a slightest chance to get the company back, I had to encourage myself to hold on to it, until we made it big enough to win us back the company. I woke up on this fateful morning with the most disturbing thought. I was restless all night and failed to have any good or proper rest. “Are you okay?” were Brian’s first words that said hi to me, as soon as I opened my eyes. It was pretty obvious that I wasn’t and I had swollen eye bags from not getting any sleep at all. “You need to reach out to Sebastine,” I said, shocking Brian hard with my request. “I am really worried about him, Brian,” I continued. “He is all alone and as if it was not enough that he has criminal parents, he hurt
THE WIFE OF A DISGUISED BILLIONAIRE 188
BLAIR’S POVI always knew that Brian was struggling to deal with the challenges that came with being my life, but what I didn’t know was that it had gotten as bad as stuffing himself with alcohol, to the very point that he was sick. On the first occasion that Brian retuned in this manner, we had just gotten married and since I didn’t know if he was alcoholic or not, so I didn’t quite care. The second occasion was the week he was to get married to Stacy and he was unhappy, from the innermost part of his soul. Now, he was here and lamenting over being with me and just how difficult it was. It melted my heart that even in that drunken state, he could still think about me and mention that he was willing to love me, despite everything. However, I couldn’t stop thinking,‘If he was in this much distress, was it worth it?’ I helped Brian clean up his body and got him to rest, while I walked downstairs to make meaning out of my day. “It’s a good thing they found their way home.” Collins
THE WIFE OF A DISGUISED BILLIONAIRE 187
BLAIR’S POV I now had more thoughts on my mind than running a company, after the period of our grieving. Collins had filled me with questions that all I really did was just lay down and thought through his words, over and over again. ‘Was there a right time to stop loving? If there was, when was the right time?’‘What if we are just making the people we love unhappy, by being with them, because their hearts would rather be elsewhere?’Collins already confessed to never seeing Stacy smile this bright, or laugh as hard as she did, when she was with him, and even I was already sick of how all Brian and I ever did was solve one chaos, after another. I was already so convinced that all my presence ever did was fill his life with problem after problem, and it was quite evident now that he was struggling to love me, and who could blame him?Brian and Stacy obviously got carried away in their chats and the extended period they had to work together, neither of them remembered to return on
