Lemonade For Me
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Brandon's POV
They say that when life gives you lemons, make lemonade. I wish I knew how to make lemonade out of the sour taste my father has made for us. I swear my father thinks that the world revolves around him. He thinks that he can do anything without any questions. I don't know I like the way things are going right now. Last night's family dinner was a disaster, I must admit that it has been a while since we have had that kind of drama. I don't know where it all began or how this even happened but I know that things are bad.
Let me break it down for you, last night was suppose to be a normal family dinner but instead it turned out to be something totally different. I was the second one to arrive, it was rather strange finding Tristan there, I say this because he is always the last one to arrive. I also thought that I will see Isabella there like my father had asked of him but that didn't happen. Tristan said that Isabella had come dow

The Billion Dollar Scam When It Rains It Pours
Isabella's POVI don't know if it just me but I feel like Tristan has been acting a little strange for the last few days. He is very distant and even when he is here, it is like his mind is elsewhere. I think that it has to do with the family dinner he went to on Sunday. He came back earlier than I thought he would and when he did, he didn't say anything to me. He just went to the liquor cabinet and poured himself a drink, he had another one and went straight to his bedroom.I didn't even know if I should even ask him anything so I just sat there and binged on Netflix. I had my wine with me. I went to bed late and when I woke up he was already gone for work. Still I paid no mind to it, it's not like this is a real relationship and so he doesn't have to kiss me goodbye. I finally decided to enroll into a programme, they offered online classes but I decided to enrol as a full time student. I was waiting for a reply and if I

Isabella's POVDinner was lovely, I didn't plan on having a guest during dinner but I couldn't exactly say no to Bradley and I am glad that I did. I haven't had a wonderful time like that in a while. The food was great and the conversation was flowing. I had the time of my life. I suppose one can even say that it refreshing. He then took me out for ice cream and that too was lovely. Brian was there watching me like a hawk. I suppose it was his job to watch over me. I had my last spoon and put the spoon in the bowl."Now tell me if that was not the best Ice cream you have ever had." Bradley asked me."Honestly I would give it a nine out of ten, we had this old woman working for us when I was growing up, she would make us ice cream, I still say that I have never had ice cream like that before." I said."W my mother was a great cook but she hated sweets bu

The Billion Dollar Scam Let It Be
Isabella's POVWaking up in an empty apartment has pretty much been a norm these days, at least back at Tristan's house there was staff so I wasn't always alone. I always had someone in the house with me, right now it is only me and I am bored as hell. I still have a week till class starts. I have decided to go forward with furthering my schooling. Even if it means paying for the tuition myself. I wish I could convince my heart to listen to what my mind already knows, that is for me to forget about Tristan.I did notice t think that it was possible but it happened, I always thought that maybe I would be the one to break the contract but Tristan beat me to it. I didn't know that he hated his brother that much and frankly, I didn't get it. Bradley was just being nice to me and I am glad that he showed up when he did or I would have had dinner on my own which I probably would have hated, he was just being friendly and I felt so co

I suppose he has himself to blame for all of this, he should have never tried to play dirty with me, he knows that I am far better than that. He knows that I play the game better.Even then this is bigger than just our ego's, hearts are on the line here. My own heart is at stake here, if Tristan was really serious about Isabella, he would have made sure that she doesn't get away from him, he should have just been truthful. I know that it looks like I am stabbing my brother in the back but I swear that I have never wanted any woman as much as I want her. This is why I want toake sure that she ends up with me.

The Billion Dollar Scam In The Moment
Tristan's POVThis 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.

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

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.

The Billion Dollar Scam For the Love Of Sake
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
The Billion Dollar Scam My Brother's Keeper
Bradley's POV I love Isabella, God knows I do and there is nothing I wouldn't do for her. She has my heart, she owns me and she doesn't even know it. 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.

Hannah was taken a few weeks ago and Bradley managed to get her back. He said that he had plans to make sure that Sebastian pays for what he did to her.

Hannah's POVI was sitting in the chair looking outside, there was firewood burning in the fire place and Sebastian was on his computer. 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

I just didn't know how deep her scars were. Now that I know what really happened to her, I understand why she acted the way she did when I showed her the sex dungeon. I suppose at the time I realised that I should have told her about this sooner. I would have gotten myself a chance to explain to her, I would never hurt Hannah no matter what.I was going Crazy trying to figure who might have taken her and now that we know who it is, I feel even more scared for her. 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. I knew that she was not okay but I still let her go, I should have insisted that she stays at home and talk to me, that we solve things.

I also want to be with him as well. I don't know how this is going to work but I know that I can't have one without the other. I told this to Bradley who decided to surprise me with a weekend away in Hawaii.
