The Billionaire She Sent To Prison Chapter 16: Response
Jayden held Lydia close as they stepped into the meet and greet hall where the drinks would be served and they would get to speak and interact with other guests. He noticed Lydia hadn't spoken since his grand announcement. He had expected her silence, and her discomfort gave him great pleasure. "Jayden Lee White," Oliver Plane, Jayden's friend, said as he approached them. He had a look that showed he was more than surprised to only have heard the news now. "Not only are you the ground-breaking business owner of the year, you are also married. The surprise just keeps increasing!" Jayden smiled, "Oliver," and stretched his hand to Oliver, who reluctantly took it. They shook hands before pulling away. Oliver's attention moved to Lydia and then back to Jayden. "So married, uh?" "Yes, this is Lydia White, my wife." Jayden introduced him, pulling Lydia closer and feeling her subtle rebellion. Lydia shook hands with Oliver, and the two introduced themselves to each other. "You got marr
The Billionaire She Sent To Prison Chapter 17: Different breeds
Lydia emptied the glass of wine Jayden had handed her a few minutes ago into her mouth as she watched him disappear into the hallway to the bathroom. She wished she could say she felt better in his absence, but she didn't. She felt out of place and knew she didn't belong here. If only leaving was an option she could take, she would have; sadly, it wasn't.Learning that Jayden White was in the real estate business surprised Lydia because whenever she had thought about him in the last weeks, she didn't see him as having an everyday business. A mafia or drug lord would have been accepted, not real estate. Perhaps she was harsh in her judgment, but he wasn't a decent man, so she expected his business to portray that part of him. She had been in the real estate business for more than three years, working with Jakob Investment, the leading real estate company in the country, and knew little about White Estate. She should have known more; her ignorance of simple things now annoyed her. She
The Billionaire She Sent To Prison Chapter 18: Family and friends
Jayden still had three more reports to assess when the door to his office flew open, forcing him to look up to see who it might be. He found Maxwell Fitzgerald, his best friend of over a decade, standing in his office looking like a fire-breathing bull, ready to spear him out of his seventh-floor office. Jayden knew Oliver's reaction at the business people submit was mild compared to what Max's reaction would be, and he was right. Oliver was his friend and a part of the troublemakers' cliques, but Max was Jayden's best friend, and they had never kept anything from each other until now.Max has been away with Nina, his girlfriend, in the past week, celebrating their sixth month together as a couple, and from Jayden's calculation, they arrived this morning. Judging from his green polo and black jeans, Jayden was safe to assume that Max had arrived from the airport instead of going home with Nina.Jayden set his pen down and leaned back on his seat to acknowledge his friend's presence.

The Billionaire She Sent To Prison Chapter 19: The great escape plan
Lydia had kept a close eye to ensure everything fell into place. In the morning, Ingrid would come to her door and request that she take a bath at precisely 7:04 a.m. and have breakfast ready between 7:30 a.m. and 8 a.m., depending on how long she would spend in the bathroom.Breakfast would take thirty minutes downstairs, and Ingrid would escort her back to her room. Next was lunch, which would be at precisely 1:15 p.m. every day, and that would take between twenty and thirty minutes like other days, then leave for her room. She would remain in her room until Ingrid returned at 4 p.m. to take her for a walk, which Jayden had permitted her to go on since the past week. Her walk would last for approximately thirty minutes, and then she would return inside while Ingrid joined the cook, making dinner in the kitchen. Dinner was usually at 6:55 p.m. and would take not less than thirty minutes; most times, Jayden made himself available. However, she didn't need to calculate the dinner for h
The Billionaire She Sent To Prison Chapter 20: Failure of presence
Gail White, Jayden's mother, had abandoned both him and his younger siblings with their father twenty years ago. Sarah Lane, their aunt, who was a young widow, became their guardian twelve years ago after the death of their father. She took them in as her own, caring for them and never relenting in showing support the best way she could for all three.They had all grown to regard her as the mother they never had. Sarah had a weak heart all her life, and it had gotten worse during Jayden's trial two years ago. However, because of the pressure on the ground, Sarah kept the illness to herself, only speaking about it when Jayden was in prison after passing out at work.Jayden wanted to be there for her just as she had been there for him and his siblings, but he failed. He would go on to spend over a year in prison while his aunt rutted in the hospital ward, her condition deteriorating with every day that went by. When he came out of prison, and he visited her in the hospital, she couldn't
The Billionaire She Sent To Prison Chapter 21: Stop
The truck came to a stop after over an hour of driving, and Lydia saw the name of the bank that looked so familiar. "Is this the one?" the middle-aged truck driver who had introduced himself to Lydia as Benard Woods asked.Lydia told him she needed his help when she stopped him on the road after walking for under thirty minutes. When he asked where she was coming from and going, she told him she was running away from her abusive husband and was going to the bank to get the money she needed to run away. At first, she wanted to lie, but she decided against it. Benard then told her to enter the car, promising to drop her where she needed to go before continuing his journey.On the drive, he told her about his family, having grown up in an abusive household where his father would constantly beat his mother before she finally stood up to him. Lydia's case wasn't the same. She wasn't running away because her abuse was as severe as the one Benard's mom experienced; it wasn't close, but she
The Billionaire She Sent To Prison Chapter 22: Length to go
It had been an hour and fifteen minutes since Lydia came to the boarding transit, waiting for the train that had been said to leave in one hour and thirty minutes when she arrived. That left her with less than fifteen minutes before she would leave. Lydia chose to wait after she was told the departure time because the option of going back home wasn't one she had. She had lived in Boston with Kevin after they ran away from their parents; this became their home, and for the next couple of years that would pass, that saying would be true. Even after getting her degree, she returned to be close to what she considered home, but she had no home in Boston anymore. Jayden White was right; she had no one, friend, or brother. There was no reason to stay.Her mind returned to the penthouse where she had run away from, thinking about what would be going through the minds of the maids and workers at the house. She wondered if Jayden already knew and couldn't help wanting to see the look that would
The Billionaire She Sent To Prison Chapter 23: Back to reality
Lydia's eyes snapped open, and her eyes fixed on the familiar ceiling. It took a moment, but she finally figured out that she was back in her room at the penthouse. She sat up immediately and placed her hand on her head, trying to remember how she landed here. She remembered getting away from here; her great escape was successful, so how was she back here in this hell? Was it all a dream? Did she dream of everything? It felt too real to be a dream. She glanced down at herself and saw she was still in the clothes she ran away with, but her shoes were off, so it wasn't a dream. She plunged deep into her mind, and the memories returned like a flood.Adam.He brought her back. His boss told him to, and that was what he did.Jayden White.He would be mad at her for sure and would want to exact punishment on her for running away. That caused her significant ache and discomfort."I'm going to die here." She whimpered out and pressed her hand against her raging heart.Still, she didn't under
