The Billionaire I Must Love Chapter Thirteen
Chapter 13Eden povWe were both sitting in fathers office, my legs were crossed over each other and my hands across my chest in defiance. Percy on the other hand glared at me, he was mad for what I did. Serves him right.“Eden!” My father called abruptly and I turned to him. He was furious, even with his straight face I could tell he was mad at me too.“What in the world were you thinking?” he asked. “You should’ve talked to him.”“I should’ve talked? He was being a jackass, telling me I was going and I quote –” I air quoted. “Overboard. If you ask me that’s enough talking to me. If he’s not going to take my words seriously then maybe I should give him reasons why he shouldn’t mess with me.” “You didn’t have to break the glass of my car.” Percy fumed holding on to the edge of the chair tightly.“Glad I got your attention now.” I sneered unfolding my legs and leaned forward.“That’s enough, both of you. I didn’t call you here to hear you two bicker. I called you two here for the wedd

Chapter 14Eden povIt was a few hours to the agreed wedding photo shoot and I’ve not said a single word to Percy in the past four days. We’ve barely crossed paths and even when we did, I made sure not to allow any exchange.We were supposed to get to the studio at the same time in his car, so I left earlier by myself, I called Josh to come pick me up instead. When I got there, they were ready for me as so we prepared. “That’s how she broke off the bottle and cried for the rest of the day.” The woman working on my hair narrated. She was talking about her niece and I really didn’t mind listening to her, it managed to take my mind away from the fact that I’ll be standing really close to Percy. “So, where’s your fiancee? I noticed you came in here alone, didn’t you two come together?” I met her eyes through the mirror. “Uh-” These people didn’t know that we were married already. “Well he is on his way.”The door to the dressing room was opened and a younger girl with dark red hair pe

Chapter 15Percy PovThe moment Eden walked out from the dressing room in the white dress I didn’t expect to be disturbed, she had been ignoring me for the past couple of days and I’ve stayed on my own lane not wanting to interact with her in any way. Now that she was on the stage smiling at the camera as she had her pictures taken, it disturbed me. I watched her every move, unable to look away and she caught me several times staring but wouldn’t react at any point. “…..you need to show how much you love Miss. Maverick.” The words drummed in my ears. I held my glare as I stared at Lyon. Didn’t the man know I didn’t love her and wasn’t in the least that attracted to her. Then her eyes fell on me, challenging me to take up the dare and be the biggest actor in this place. Sure, I could act to be in love. It wasn’t the hardest thing to do. With long strides I covered up the distance between us, her chest and mine were few meters apart and I stared at her face. Her olive green eyes we

Chapter 16Eden pov“So are you going to do something about the security here? because I’m not sure I want to stay in a place where family members can waltz in without any heads up.” I asked watching him type away on his phone.“I didn’t know he would come here- heck I didn’t think he was out.” He sat on the couch rubbing his chin. Out? What did he mean by out? “I’ll handle it.” He assured me.“Good, I don’t need to worry about crazy people coming here unannounced.” I added walking to my room.“Wait- where did you find him when you got here?” “He was standing in the middle of the living room like a creep.” I answered. “No offense.” He ignored my crude comment about his step brother.“Did he say anything to you?” He inquired looking up at me. “What was his reaction when he saw you?”“Why would I take note of that?-“ the glare he gaze me shit me up.“Help me out here Eden, I don’t want to fight with you.” He sighed.“Fine-“ I searched through. Graham. There was something off about him

Chapter 17Percy pov“This is actually good food.” I commented placing the fork next to the empty plate. Eden who was taking a sip of from the wine glass rolled her eyes in the process. My eyes following as her throat bobbed as she swallowed, they stayed on her lips which were now stained. “My eyes are up here.” “I’m aware, I like he view from here.” I answered with a teasing smile, she carried her plate to the sink to wash them. As if pulled by magnet, I followed her and placed the plates in the sink.“Let me-” I offered gently displacing her from the sink. While I turned on the tap I could feel her eyes on me, she wasn’t expecting me to offer to wash. “Why are you being nice?” she finally asked. I rinsed the plate taking my time to answer her question. “Why?” I repeated.“Stop beating around the bush Percy,” Maybe I was trying to get her mind off the fact the Graham made a disturbing appearance today.“Is this about Graham?” she hit the bullseye without trying to hard, she is s

Chapter 18Violet PovThe banging on the door the next morning set me jolting up from the bed, my eyes were still trying to adjust to the light. Scrambling off the bed, I rubbed my face and the banging continued.“I’m coming would you-” I pulled the door opened facing Percy who was already dressed up. “Why are you trying to break the goddamn door? Do you know what time it is?”“You’re not dressed?” he eyed me still in my night wear. I was a walking zombie, my hair in a frenzied mess and my face probably puffed up too.“Dressed? What is going on?” I leaned on the door as I stared at him. He was in a navy blue suit with a white shirt dress inside, he glanced down at the watch on his wrist and then back at me. A deep sigh escaped his lips, the stubble on his chin was cleared and his face fresh and bright, his eyes filled with energy and his aura illuminating.“It’s been barely twelve hours and you’ve forgotten. You asked me to teach you how to run a company-” my eyes widened as he kept

Chapter 19Eden pov“You shouldn’t have flirted with him.”My anger was beginning to subside when he said to me, my fingers which were around the seatbelt clinged even harder. “I wasn’t flirting with the idiot.” I answered focused on the road in front of me, even though I wasn’t driving I didn’t let my eyes leave the front but that wasn’t the same for Percy who kept casting glances in my direction.“Yo-”“Maybe you should focus on driving and mind your business.” I pinpointed harshly. He doesn’t reply instead he took my advice and kept his focus on the road. Let me tell you one thing I despise, Entitled people. People who think they deserve whatever they want because of who they are. People like that infuriate me and the guy from the pastry house was one of them.I had my fair share with people like that, when mom was still alive she would come home upset and would tell me about entitled people, I hated how they made her feel. Sometimes she would go to her room after work and go st

Chapter 20Percy POVHer expression when she entered my office was tainted and her brows already bringing out frowning lines. A lot of things pissed Eden easily and it made her an easy bomb.“What happened?” I asked taking off my glasses, she was too engrossed in her thoughts to even look at me. Instead she sat on the couch and closed her eyes.“It’s nothing.” She answered opening her eyes, Eden turned in my direction clearly irritated.“Eden-” I pressed holding her gaze, from how shaky her eyes was I knew this was a battle she wouldn’t win so I let her have it. I averted my haze somewhere else.“It’s too early to be upset, it’s barely eleven a.m.” I said opening a file on my desk, I skimmed over the information written down and heard the chair opposite me being pulled back. Even without looking up I know that Eden is there, her presence is hard to ignore so I spare her a quick glance.“What happens now?” she asked plainly. “What do you mean?” I reciprocated turning to my laptop.

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 placed my hands on Zach chest and traced on the toned mucles of his chest. He stirred but doesn’t open his eyes. “Thanks Audrey- you’re a life saver.” She sighed in r

I stood in front of the mirror while i rushed my hair. “Better believe it.” I answered. Three daya back, Audrey suggested that we went out on vacation and today we were on our way to mauritius to spend the next two weeks. “Are you guys done?” Audrey strutted out in her short summer dress. She had her hair up in a neat bun. They were all making an effort with the dress and there was me. My black swweat pants sat on waist and my body hug crop top held the upper part of my body, revealing my toned muscles. I grabbed a scrunchy from the table and packed my hair in a messy bun and applied gloss afterwards. “Its how you make no effort yet still look as hot as a model from a cover magazine.” Maggie said as she grabbed her bag. I chuckled and grabbed my phone, Percy was yet to reply my text from the day before. The guys weren’t coming with us be

Chapter 102 Eden Pov He held unto my waist as his hands held me in place, blindly he kicked the door to the apartment shut. My hands held unto his shoulders for support as we moved further into the room. The lights flooded slowly as i kicked off my shoes and stood on my tiptoes to keep myself from falling out of the kiss. His lips held mine as the urgency to have me where he wanted. My hands fiddled with his jacket but i managed to peel if of his shoulders, his fingers around my waist detached as he helped me get rid of the material andd discard it to the side. His hands brushed against my hips and down to my thighs where he squeezed on the skin through the material of my dress. A soft moan escaped my lips and my eyes closed shut at the pleasure that caused through from his lips. He pulled away and stared at me for a moment, his fingers brushed a strand of hair away from my face to behind my ears. “You’re as red as a tomato.” he teased. “It’s all your fault, my body always reacts

Chapter 98Percy povMy eyes burned into the head of Graham who was enjoyed me being tied up. How did I get here? 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. Graham wouldn’t like me if I got free.“It doesn’t matter now brother, what you should be more worried about is yourself and her-“ he nudged to his right. With a grin on my face I turned in his direction and my eyes widened. Eden. She was hunched over, tied to the chair and unconscious. My heart thumped in my chest and anger cursed through my veins.“What did you do to her?!” I yelled at Graham who only laughed out loud and stared at me like I’ve lost my mind. “Oh, nothing much.

Chapter 96Eden povI hurried out of the car with grocery bags in my hands, I should’ve been back ten minutes ago but Audrey insisted I dropped off something for her at her apartment. Percy was back home alone and I didn’t like it, even after he assured me that he was going to be fine I just wanted to be with him. I pushed up to Audrey’s apartment which was unlocked, I sighed in relief when I pushed the door opened. “Audrey- I’m back!” I yelled and walked into her apartment with the bag tucked in my hands. There was no answer, maybe she was up in the bathroom? I placed the bag on the counter and turned to leave when I noticed a paper on the counter, it looked like a letter. It wasn’t any of my business so i ignored it. “Audrey! I’m leaving-“ “Eden?” My head snapped towards Zach who was standing in his sweats with no shirt on and the way his hair frizzled and bare chest glistened in sweat, I couldn’t help but raise my brow at him. “Oh Zach- you’re here.” I said. “Where’s Audrey?”
