THE WIFE OF A DISGUISED BILLIONAIRE 35
BRIAN’S POV CONTINUES There was no stopping Stacy, and just like that, we were on a trip back to Winchester with her. I fought the urge to ask questions like, ‘How did you make it out of the penthouse? Where's John Dowey? Why were you ever in the penthouse?’ It just seemed like an insensitive thing to do, considering that she let us go, putting her life at risk. Steven and I sitting side by side with each other kept taking glances at each other, and then staring at her through the rearview mirror. It was an awfully quiet drive and we finally arrived at the pickup location at 6am. We boarded the private airplane to Winchester, and I was shivering in my seat, knowing that Blair could wake up any moment, and finding Stacy here would be something I didn't want to explain, something I had no explanation for. Steven and I sat a distance away from Stacy, finally allowing us some space to talk. “What is going on, Brian?” Steven queried. “I don't know, you tell me!” I replied. We kep

BLAIR'S POVI woke up on the plane, feeling a bit dizzy. I barely had any memories, and my head ached terribly. It took a couple of minutes to recollect my last memory; a drink from Brian. ‘Were we still on the trip to Singapore?’ ‘Damn! How long was this trip?’ I gathered myself together, getting out of my seat, walking back, where I heard voices arising from. I found a tall, fair lady, with brown, bouncy hair and a banging shape from behind, sitting beside Steven, in an opposite direction. The legs of a man sticking in between her opened legs.‘Please, don't be Brian,’ I prayed, even though Steven's fearful look confirmed my suspicion. She had her breasts in his face, covering it, but her face was bent towards his and they appeared locked in a kiss from my view. “What is going on here?” I asked.I struggled to stay coordinated, so they didn't notice how shaky I was. I also struggled to process a million emotions at the same time. The sting of betrayal, rage, the pain of a h

BLAIR'S POV CONTINUES The pains grew worse and I came crashing on the floor, holding my stomach pretty firmly. “Steven!!” Brian yelled. “Go get Steven,” he instructed Stacy, but she wouldn't make a move. “Go! Now!” He yelled at her. She displayed her resistance and she finally left. I was rolling on the floor, struggling to catch my breath. In a short while, Steven was running towards us, with Stacy cat-walking behind him. I soon began to feel blood running down my laps as my abdomen cramped very badly. “Where are we now?” Brian asked Steven. “Uhmm, I don't know Brian. Flying over the Maldives?” Steven responded with a sense of urgency, but also with a pinch of sarcasm. “Tell the pilot to land this plane,” Brian said. “Brian, we're barely five hours into this journey,” Steven countered.“And she wouldn't make it for the seven hours left, if she doesn't get medical care immediately, Steven,” Brian yelled, holding me in his arms.“Instruct the landing of this plane, now!” He

BRIAN’S POV I drowned in guilt, unable to forgive myself for causing the loss of my child. ‘How could I ever face her?’ ‘How do I live the rest of my life with this guilt?’ ‘Was I supposed to keep this a secret from her? How long could I do that?’ Blair was never going to forgive me for this, if she ever found out. I couldn't even forgive myself, how could I expect forgiveness from her? I was a monster, just like my father, I wasn't any different from him. Doing anything to have my way and not thinking about the effect on other's feelings. It was bad enough that she woke up and found me in Stacy's arms, and now she had to deal with the fact that I had cost her a baby. I left the room, not able to face her, even in her unconsciousness. The innocence of her face reflecting the purity of her heart stung my selfish heart. I walked from one end of the small garden in the hospital, to the other end of it, soaking in my guilt and the shame of my actions. It felt like the end of the

BLAIR’S POV After hours of not saying a word to him or anyone else, I decided I didn't want to live this lie. There was no denying how much I loved Brian, but there was also no denying how I'd never fit. I would always be an outsider to him, and that was not a feeling I was willing to deal with, especially not after losing a baby because of his selfishness. My request hit him like a blow to the breast of a nursing mother, as he could neither utter a word, nor move another step close to me. There was a moment of thick, terrifying silence between us.“Is everything okay, Blair?” He finally said, taking a few steps towards me. “You tell me, Brian,” I said, turning around to face him. “You shut me out and don't tell me anything,” I launched a rant, “it's not bad enough that I am trying to fit into your chaotic life, you poison me and send me into a literal period of lifelessness, just to shut me out and get me out of your way,” my tone gradually hitting the top. “Because of your s

BLAIR’S POV CONTINUES I ran as fast as my legs could carry me. I wasn't sure where I was off to. Thankfully, it was a luxurious resort and had very few people roaming the halls. My vision was blurry from the tears welled in them and I only managed to get myself to the bar. It was a large and serene place, and also had a pool at the other exit. I wasn't a consumer of alcohol but was willing to do whatever it took to take my mind away from all the chaos around it. “One shot of your best drink,” I ordered, sitting on the high stool at the counter.The bartender was prompt in his response and he soon gave me a shot. I held the cup in my shaky hands, as I dread its consumption. I was hesitant about my decision. “Want to do that together?” I heard a thick, male voice behind me. I turned around to a six foot tall young man, with brown skin and a muscular structure. He had neatly cut black hair and pink lips sitting on his finely shaped straight face and sharp jawline. He was a work

BLAIR'S POV CONTINUES We barely got to say the word ‘Jack’ before Brian came swinging at Sebastine, causing a scene. “Brian!” I yelled, trying to pull him away from Sebastine, who already had a bleeding lip from Brian's punch. “What is wrong with you?” I scolded. Luckily, the bartender and a few other staff came around to pull the two apart. Steven had also quickly shown up, so the scene was immediately prevented from escalating. Sebastine did not react violently and it made me fall in love with him by another step. “Mr. Craig, the establishment has a zero tolerance for violence policy, Sir,” the bartender said to Craig. “And certainly not violence against my son,” a thick, fierce voice surfaced from the other entrance, towards the pool. “We are so sorry sir,” Steven immediately apologized, “It was all a big misunderstanding,” he said. “Mr. Craig, you seem like a man of high repute,” Sebastine’s father said, “I do not expect to find you out here, acting belligerent towards my

BLAIR'S POV CONTINUES I couldn't bring myself to share a kiss with Sebastine. As much as I didn't want to admit it, I loved Brian. Sure he was way older and selfish and annoying, he also hurt me really badly, but in all of it, I still loved him. I genuinely cared about him, and it had gone beyond his actions or how much he annoyed me. “I'm sorry Sebastine,” I pulled back and apologized. “It's okay,” he immediately responded. “I shouldn't have,” he said. We sat outside, discussing what college life was for Sebastine and I found peace in how fun it was talking to Sebastine. He was the literal ‘life of the party,’ and it was surprising to find that he was an honors student. He was multifaceted and I found that about him fascinating. We sat outdoors, in the lonely road and in the car for hours, until the sunset. “We should get back to the resort,” he said, “I'm sure my dad is worried, and I believe Brian is too,” he added. ‘I doubt that,’ I thought. He was probably wrapped ar
