Tristan's POV

This has officially been the worst night of my life. I hate being here and I hate my brother even more than I have before, he had just ruined the relationship we had only just begun, I thought that we were in a good place but I realised that I might have been wrong. I don't know how my father expects me to just sit here and be happy when he had just ripped my heart out of my chest. I hate this, all of it. Why would Isabella show up here with him? Does this mean that he has won?

This whole night has been nothing but a nightmare, everyone was looking at them, I hate to admit this but I was even jealous of the attention my brother got, he took my place, my spotlight and now I am about to bring down the house. I suppose this is the perfect moment to do that, especially since everyone is in such a happy mood. We had gone through most of the night and we had just had dinner, now everyone was happy, as angry and as hurt as I was, I di

  • The Billion Dollar Scam   Tipping Point

    Bradley's POV I knew that coming here with Isabella was going to steer up some tension between my little brother and I but I didn't think that he would act so radical. My father looks like he is about to pop a vain, I can't remember the last time I saw him this angry. I don't understand why Tristan would do this, why he would act like this, there is a way to do things and this is not it, he just announced that he is leaving the family business, something we should have discussed with the family, this is just crazy. "What the hell does your brother think he is doing? This could ruin us." My father said in an angry voice. " He has lost his mind all over again." Brandon said. He might be right, my father was right as well, what he is doing will do more harm than good, he established this business, he is the one with the clients, people trust him with their money, we all kno

My fiance said."No, we stick to the plan, he is my son, he will come around if he doesn't I will make him." I said."No! You need to call this whole thing off, Tristan has made it perfectly clear where he stands with this family, you know how closed he is to Brandon, what is to stop him from walking away? You are supposed to bring these boys closer to each other and not this." She said."Look as far as their concerned, I am a dying man, as mad as Tristan is, he won't deny me what I want, I think it's time I moved to phase two of the plan." I said.My fiance has always been honest about how she feels about my whole plan from the moment I told her about it, she is an honest woman, pretty much the same as my wife was. I h

  • The Billion Dollar Scam   He Is The Law

    Tristan's POVWhen I made the announcement I felt proud and I remain proud for the moment I took and let the world know that I was leaving my father's company, it was time for me to fly out of the nest. I know that I can do this on my own, with a little focus, I can build my own empire. I don't have regrets about that, the only I am not happy about is the way I acted after the speech, I shouldn't have said all this things I said to Bradley but I felt like I didn't have a choice.Like he was flaunting Isabella in my face, I also cant believe that Isabella is with him, I mean how can she just from me to him like that? Maybe Isabella is not the woman I thought that she was. Maybe I was wrong about her, I suppose she must feel like she has won but I know my brother and he is the worst of us, the most extreme. He was also right that I was the one who introduced him to that world because I did. I lender on it by mistake.

    Isabella's POVSo after the dinner that went down south very fast, Tristan insisted on taking me home, I was standing outside waiting for an Uber. Going to the gala dinner was supposed to be a fun time for me. To finally get out of the apartment and have some fun. I didn't think that it would end so badly. Tristan said a lot of things and some of them were really below the belt. I didn't think that he would react the way he did, he even followed me to the ladies room, not that I blame him, Bradley didn't want to leave my side.I was not happy to learn that I was a bet between the two brothers, especially since I was sure that Bradley wanted friendship, up until that night, I never thought that I could see us being anything more than friends. I don't know but I don't understand why these grown men will stoop so low to get their father's inheritance. All of them feels entitled to have a piece of the pie and as for their father, I

  • The Billion Dollar Scam   On Your Mind

    Bradley's POVI have been trying to get hold of Isabella for the last few days and I have failed at every attempt. She has told her doorman not to let anyone up into their apartment and on top of that, my calls went unanswered. Sunday dinner wasn't any different. Of all the things that I thought my little brother was capable of, I did not see this one coming. I never thought that he would quit and to top it off, he did publicly. He did that knowingly that my father will take the news very well. My father is beyond livid.He told me that I should take over the family business because Theodore had quit, that was all we spoke about on Sunday. I think that it is safe to say that I might also be written off the will given my behaviour at the table. After Tristan quit I realised how brave he was for challenging my father like that. I have always been his puppet, the one person he can count on to do all the dirty work while he reaps the rewards and

  • The Billion Dollar Scam   Missing In Action

    Hannah's POV"Come back to bed..." Brandon said to me. Okay so we are officially a couple and unlike Isabella, my relationship with Brandon is real. I can't believe that he has been at one of my weddings, he told me that he was wondering how I ended up with that guy, he was talking about my second husband. The thruth is that I never loved any of them, all of my husband's were there to serve a purpose. I was with them to serve a purpose, it is different with Brandon though, I think that I am actually in love with the man.I actually never thought that I would ever feel this about someone else after all that I have been through. My mother would be mortified to know that I actually feel something real for a man, she has always said that love was just comfort food for the weak and uneducated. I beg to differ. Love is a beautiful thing and up until now I didn't know what beautiful was. To care and love someone and have them feel the same about yo

  • The Billion Dollar Scam   Do Me Like This

    Tristan's POVI know that my father has always wanted us to do things the way he wanted and as much as I want to do my own thing, I don't want to lose my family. I have realised that I wouldn't want Bradley to have Isabella because I could stand to see her happy if I was not the one making her her feel that way. As much as it pained me, maybe living town won't be such a bad idea, I know that my father would very much appreciate all that, especially since we seem to be fighting for her.Abigail came to my house to tell me that my father blames her and that he offered her a lot of money so that she can leave town, I told her to take the money because I thought that it would be best for everyone if she was gone. I mean at least the competition between my brother and me will be done for. I also have a good reason to believe that he is the one who will take over my father's business because I walked away but I also know that he will

I just couldn't bare the thought of being totured by my ex husband again. I know how bad it could get and I couldn't do it. I would have rather died than allow that man to take more than he has already taken from me. I haven't been able to get over what he did to me.

    Tristan's POVThey say that everything happens for a reason, I wish I knew the reason why Isabella has put us in this situation. I love her and that is why I asked her to marry me. I didn't even think that there was any reason why she would say no because I happen to know that she loves me. That is why I was confident enough to tell Bradley that I would respect whatever decision that Isabella takes. I fully support her but I am not too sure that I would accept it if she chose Bradley over me. I am the one who has loved her the longest, I am the one who saw her first and if it wasn't for my stupidity, we would be together like we are supposed to be. Instead I pushed her away and gave Bradley an opportunity to move in on my girl. He has his paws so deep into her, she has fallen in love with him. When I proposed to her I thought that she would immediately say yes. Well I was hoping for that because I knew that Bradley was going to do the same thing. I wanted to beat him t

I never thought that my life would turn out like this. I never thought I would fall in love with someone like Isabella, she is everything I have never looked for in a woman, I suppose that is what makes her so special. I always thought that I would always be a bachelor, that I would die one too. No prospects of having a wife or children of my own. To have to understand that I saw my mother dying in my own arms. I couldn't bare to have my child go through that. The life I had chosen for myself didn't allow my to have dreams of having my own family. I live in a dangerous world, a world that has not place for children. That was before I met Isabella and that is why I have since changed my mind about so many things. You see now, not only am I in love with this woman but I love her enough to want to have children with her.

I want to leave but I know that it would be impossible with him lurking around the cabin. He has basically held me hostage, not that it would make any difference if I reported it no one would believe me. I don't know what his plans for me are but I have a feeling that he won't let me go, well not alive that is. He would rather kill me than let me leave. When I divorced him, he promised to find me.Back then I thought that he was just making idle treats and as years passed, I thought that he had forgotten about me. I thought that he would have another person to fulfill his needs. I suppose that I was wrong because here I am in a cabin in the middle of nowhere with no way to get home. I had so many regrets and the biggest one was that I ran away like I did. It was cowardly especially since I know it in

That man is a monster and I am afraid of what he might do to her. I pray that I find her alive and well. I know that I won't be able to forgive myself if anything happens to her.
