The Billionaire I Must Love Chapter Seventy-Five: Tease me
Chapter 75Eden pov“Get out of my way.” I said firmly. He remained still and my arms wrapped around myself. “Not until you tell me what you were about to say back then.” He replied leaning back to the door.“I don’t owe you anything-““You owe me that much Eden,” I snorted and rolled my eyes at him which made his eyes darkened. He moved closer to me while I retreated, his frame towered over me and I stopped, not wanting him to intimidate me anymore. “You don’t get to say I owe you, it’s not my fault that you’re the one lying right now.” His lips remained stilled and his eyes glued to me like he was trying to figure out what was in my head. I stared at him hoping he’ll say something to but the only thing that transpired is our breathing. “Get out of my way.” I said firmly. He remained stilled unmoving, I pushed his with my hands against his chest, it was the most ludicrous thing to do but I had to try. His hands wrapped themselves around my wrist and he pulled at my wrist tugging
The Billionaire I Must Love Chapter Seventy-Six: Trust me
Chapter 76Eden povIt ended up with me at the back of the car with Percy, he insisted on getting me a new phone and I really needed to get back online. The ride was quiet as I stared out of the window, it was my first time here and nothing looked familiar, I had caught a whiff of places like this online. I sighed and leaned back at the leather seat, I needed to shower and have a long sleep, and my hair kept on disturbing me. “Here.” He handed me a scrunchie, it’s was pale pink and still in the packet. I frowned as I stared at the material in his hand, did he get it back at the airport? I accepted it, my hands brushed his lightly which had me pulling away immediately. I packed my hair in a ponytail and the car slowed to a stop.Percy got out of the car and I followed, he moved in fast strides that had me skipping to keep up with him. The doors parted and the gust of cold air rushed through my bare arms, I chewed on my buttom lips as I followed through the crowd to Percy who had alre

Chapter 77Percy POVShe practically behaved like I didn’t exist, we had breakfast downstairs at the hotel restaurant but she barely said concerning last evening. “Hey, can you look at this for me? What do you think?” I dropped my fork as she turned her laptop towards me, I glanced at her but her gaze was fixated on the screen and her lips were in a thin line. I glanced at the screen and read, I gave her my feedback and she thanked me going back to ignoring my presence. Her meeting was in forty minutes and Cole had briefed me on all that I need to know. It turned out that Cole wasn’t as interested in Eden as I thought and I over reacted.“Are you ready to do this?” I asked as we stepped out of the car into the new building, from the corner of my eyes I saw her swallow and chew on her lips.“Yes, I am.” I noticed how out of breath she was but knowing she’ll not want to talk about it I dropped it. It was natural to have eyes on us because of the aura we brought into a place, women sp

Chapter 78Eden Pov“I like you.” he repeated this time I didn't have to think that something was wrong with my hearing. “No you don't. You hate me.” I said in rejection and pushed back in my chair. It was difficult to look into his eyes. “People change-” he was clearly messing with me.“No, they don't. You can't just like someone you hate.”“Eden- I'm not joking here.” he objected. My mind was arching and his lie saddled on there. “Well I don't believe you.” I announced again with a fiercely. “I don't believe anything that you'll tell me right now Percy because you've always lied to me and then you want me to believe that you like me just when I caught you with your ex girlfriend which I remind you, you told me you'll never see if she even wanted to, and now you did-” I gasped trying to recover all my breath. There was a shallow hole in my chest as my eyes met with his, he had been watching me the entire time.“Eden-” he called slowly. “Breathe, your face is red.” I sighed and clo
The Billionaire I Must Love Chapter Seventy-Nine: Half truths
Chapter 79Percy povIt was difficult to sleep, even after seeing her awake, it wasn’t enough to keep me from worrying. After I watched her have a full blown panic attack, I blamed myself for it. Now she laid peacefully on her side deep asleep, it had taken a while for her to go back to bed but she did eventually. I had climbed in the other side and had my back to the headrest, the soft rising and falling of her body calmed me down but it wasn’t enough to send me to sleep. The rumbling from outside held my gaze for a few seconds, it was dark and the flash outside lit up the sky. “Y-“ my eyes moved down to her face, her slightly parted lips moved with no audible sound and her hands curled into her chest. Her hair was beginning to loose out of the cage of the scrunchie. I brushed some of the hair away from her face and tucked it far away, she moved again and turned with her back to me making the blanket shuffle down her body. My phone vibrated on the night stand and I grabbed the de
The Billionaire I Must Love Chapter Eighty: What should I do?
Chapter 80Eden povThe flight back wasn’t as gruesome as the one we had when we left, we had sat together and I in his hands, we watched a movie together and I fell asleep afterwards. When I woke up, Percy wasn’t next to me, I adjusted myself on the seat and was ready to stand when he returned with a bottle of water. “You’re up.” He nestled beside me placing a quick kiss to the top of my head. “We’re almost at our destination.” He added.Now there was a problem, Percy confessed that he liked me and it left me with so many questions. One; he never said how much. Two; was I supposed to tell him about how I feel about him? It was among the numerous questions that lived in my head. He hasn’t said anything about me telling him anything in return but it’s been a bit difficult seeing that he openly confessed his feelings. When I felt soft lips against mine, I was brought back to reality. My eyes fluttered shot and his warm hands cupped my cheeks before pulling away.“You zoned out a bit.”

Chapter 81Henry Maverick POV“Sir, your daughter is here to see you.” my secretary announced, I was currently reviewing a set of files. My brows furrowed and I told her to let her in. It's been weeks since I've seen Eden, weeks since she came to me for help, the contract with Percy was the only thing keeping her. Why then was she here to see me?The door opened and she walked in, it was difficult to stay calm when she looked liked her mother. It was difficult for me to keep a straight face and talk to her without having to bear the guilt. Her soft eyes caught with mine from where she stood and with the way her lips were in a thin line I knew she was here for something. “To what do I owe this meeting.” I said leaning back in the chair, my hands rested on the side of the chair as she remained standing. “I can't remember sending for you.” “Thats because you didn't. I'm here to speak to you about something.” she replied calmly. I've known Eden to be fierce and sharp mouthed, just lik

Chapter 82Percy povWhen I saw the text from Henry Maverick it didn't take rocket science to know something was wrong, my phone began to ring in my hand and his name flashed across my screen.“What is the meaning of this? You're not supposed to fall in love with her or tell her,” Henry seethed through the speakers.“I'm not in love with her,” I answered. “Exactly what I mean Percy, you have Eden thinking you care about her when it's all a sham.” Henry stated. “It wasn't part of the agreement.”“I do care about her, with or without the contract.” I announced pacing around the room. “No, you don't Percy and it's going to stay that way. You're going to keep on hating her like you have from the very beginning, let her hate you again and be reminded that this isnt real.” he warned with a stern voice.“I'm afraid it's not possible.” I objected. “I can't do that to her, not like this.”There was a pause on his end but I could hear his heavy breathing.“So what? You're going to act like he

Chapter One hundred and Four Audrey POV “I know Eden-” I opened the bathroom door and brushed my messy hair backwards with my fingers. My eyes landed on the man sleeping in my bed, his bare chest was on display for me to see and his hands crossed over his face, blocking his eyes. My eyes trailed further down to where the Duvet stopped which was around his hips. He moved and my gaze reached up his face. “Audrey? Are you there?” Eden said through the phone and I blinked. “Yeah, i am.” I answered lowly while rubbing my neck, my fingers crossed one of the bruise on my neck. It was a love mark from Zach from last night. “So what do you say?” she asked and i moved closer to Zach who was still asleep, the bed dipped from under me as i sat on the bed. “You should go for it, i’m sure it would drive him crazy.” I giggled.

I pulled my hands but they were restricted by the hard duct tape which was rounded around my upper body, my wrists were bound together by a thick rope.“How did you get me here?” I asked whilst struggling.
