THE WIFE OF A DISGUISED BILLIONAIRE 167
BLAIR’S POV Ashley saw Sebastine off to the airport and he gave her his vehicle, which she returned with. She could not stop talking about receiving a car from Sebastine as the first gift, less than twenty-four hours after their relationship started. Neither I, nor Ashley, could wipe the smiles off our faces, when we realized that Sebastine had shopped other gifts and had left them at the trunk of the car, There was a life-size teddy bear and a heart decorated seat cover, with a big heart at the top. “Each time you seat, remember that you buried this deeply in my heart.” A note accompanied the seat cover. Seeing Ashley happy was all that mattered to me and knowing that Sebastine was a sweet, gentleman, made it even more beautiful and comforting. Ashley spent the next two days raving about Sebastine and the other hours she was not talking about him, she was talking to him and their relationship, although long-distanced was catching on quite well and more quickly than I expected.

BLAIR’S POV At the court hearing, it wasn’t a long case for evidences to be established against her, in respect to stealing from the Queen and other situations. However, we had tendered on serious issue- the ownership of the company. Jane argued again and again that the company was handed to her. My father could barely talk, and since we didn’t want to stress him, he responded to none of the questions. “Your honor, I do not understand why Miss. Williams sounds like she finds my client unfit to run a company she worked hard for, a company she built.” Jane’s lawyer. “Liar!” I yelled. Jane had gotten the company’s recognition. “She manipulated him.” I yelled. “This is a law court, please maintain decorum, Miss. Williams,” the judge said. I apologized over and over again. “Miss. Williams, do you have any prove of manipulation?” the judge asked me. I handed my lawyer my father’s dairy and the judge chuckled. I could see him struggling to avoid laughing me to scorn. I was filled wit

BLAIR’S POV After that conversation with my father, I decided that he was right. Jane was probably not worth the fuss anyway. I wasn’t going to bother myself with whether or not she owned the company, I was going to start being more responsible for my life and decided to see the good around me, starting today. I was beaming with excitement and could not bring myself to remain calm. Today, three weeks after he left my body, I could finally hold my son. I was excitedly jumping and beaming from ear to ear and now that the wait for over, it just left even longer. “Hey,” Brian had been trying to pacify me, all morning, but I was like an ocean and could not be contained. I bought big blue balloons and stared at them the entire drive to the hospital.Ashley remained at home with my father, while Brian and I went to the hospital.There was an entire home-coming waiting for me and I just couldn’t wait for him to be able to recognize those he could regard as family. As soon as he was han

BLAIR’S POVOur wedding plans was fast tracked and now that it was a few days away, I looked back to realize that everything had taken us less than six weeks, including waiting for Regal to be fit to travel. Our flight was leaving the next morning and the most exciting part of getting married to the love of my life, was that my father was going to be the one to walk me down the aisle, like he should have been in the last two times I tried to get married. His presence and how strong he had grown over the last six weeks, was more than enough realization for me. Everything felt right and perfect. Our destination was a surprise to Ashley and the destination wedding was for a selected few. It was going to have in attendance, Stacy, Collins, Ronald and Sebastine, and of course, my father and Ashley. It was a discrete ceremony and I stared out the window all day, anticipating our flight which was taking off at 4pm. “How do you think she would react?” I asked Brian. “I don’t know.” He

BLAIR’S POVThe ceremony took place as it should have, but I noticed Stacy and Collins were very detached. Not only were they not blending well with the crowd, they barely spoke to each other. Every other person was having the time of their lives, so much that they did not take note of the couple, however, it wasn’t a good ceremony for me, if I wasn’t getting everyone’s energy. I was more surprised to see that Brian didn’t care at all. Stacy was the life of the party and I assumed that if no one else would have found it weird, Brian would. On the other hand, Brian hadn’t taken his eyes off me for a single minute, since we were gathered at the dinner table for the wedding, so, maybe it was too much of me to be expecting him to notice. Everyone was so excited to hear us take our vows and right after, we had dinner with family. Everyone else was out here being chatting. Ashley specifically was having the time of her life. She finally got to spend time with Sebastine, since their rel

BLAIR’S POV I immediately ditched the idea of running off to bed and pulled through the activities of the night, with a very distracted mind. Stacy, on the other hand, retired to bed, almost immediately after we returned to join the men. As I predicted, Ashley was dead drunk and my father had to get some rest, after taking his medications. I was the only one who hung around and at almost 3am, I saw that they were unwilling to get rest, so I gave up on the wait. I retired to bed and tried to get some good sleep. Luckily, our activity for the next day was beginning at 9am. “Rise and shine!” Brian announced excitedly, pulling the window blinds open and allowing the sun directly into my eyes. ‘Well, that was definitely the shortest five hours of my life.’ I thought, as my slowly opening eyes, caught the digital clock at the bed side, revealing 8am. “Common, we can’t be late for our wedding gig,” Brian said, “Get up and prepare.” He passionately pulled me out of bed and planted a k

BLAIR’S POV I got paired with Collins, Ashley had Ronald, my father had Sebastine, and Brian picked Stacy. ‘Classic exchange.’ Although it was very random, I loved how it turned out. I knew that Stacy felt more comfortable with Brian, and if she was going to speak to someone about what was bothering her, Brian was her best pick. I also needed a conversation with Collins, so, it was a double win. The different pairs walked two kilometers away from each other, moving round the park. For the first few minutes, Collins and I were having a really quiet walk, until…“I noticed you’ve been awfully quiet and zoned out,” I said. Collins turned to me. “Uhm, yea, overwhelmed with work.” He responded so casually. It was obvious it was my voice that yanked him out of the whirl of thoughts he was existing in. “Work?” I probed, “Collins, you’re here for a wedding,” I spoke softly, “It would be really nice if you can keep work in a corner for one bit, don’t you think?” I avoided going strai

BLAIR’S POV “Collins, wait!” I yelled, running after him. “I see you are clueless.” He said, in a pretty dense tone, “No wonder you pulled through with the wedding,” “What is going on?” At this point, I had my suspicions, but I was unwilling to say anything about it, until someone confirmed it. “They are sleeping with each other,” Collins unapologetically dropped the bomb on me. My jaw fell to the floor and my eyes increased its radius. “Or at least, they were, the entire time he returned to Winchester.” Collins said, I was dumbfounded. My emotions were a mixture of pain, betrayal, but also that of regret and understanding. For the next couple of hours, Collins and I sat under a tree, on a bench and just had conversations. “I have tolerated Stacy for the longest time. I have loved her through her cheating and all her excesses, but this is now beyond me, Blair.” He complained bitterly. “I’m tired of always coming second, especially to Brian,” “She would pick every other thin

THE WIFE OF A DISGUISED BILLIONAIRE 195
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
