THE WIFE OF A DISGUISED BILLIONAIRE 168
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

BLAIR’S POV It took another five minutes of just staring at each other, seated side by side each other, before Brian spoke up. “I know you have so much you want to say already, so please, just do so already,” he pleaded, “Yell at me. Scold me. Punch me. Do whatever, say whatever.” “Anything that makes you better. I just need to hear what you have in your heart.” He said. I stared at Brian with a side smile. Unfortunately, contrary to Brian’s thoughts or fears, there was nothing in my heart. I was empty and clueless, struggling with every single thing. I had no thoughts, no basic emotions in my heart. All I had was one wish, that we could both go back in time and act better, but since that was not a possibility, what was there to say? I took a deep breath. “Would you believe me if I say I have nothing to say?” I asked Brian, with a cracked voice. “No,” he dropped his head down, as he responded in a whisper. ‘And that was the problem,’ I thought. I was being honest when I sai
