The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 103: making sure you're okay
The luggage was already arranged and ready to be carried so it didn't take long for it to be made to fit into the car's booth. While she locked the door finally, it felt like she was closing the memories of the past and she was now ready to move on and pursue the peaceful life that she desired. She felt change creeping in and she was ready to embrace it.As they drove, she fixed her eyes on the scenery that unfolded in front of her as different memories began to plague her. She willed them away because she wasn't ready for any sort of torture her mind was trying to subject her to."Hey how are you feeling?" Robert asked again. He wanted to make sure she was fine and not reconsider her decision.She turned to look at him, removing her hands from her jaw. "I'm good."He placed one of his free hands on her laps. "Are you sure you're okay with all these?""You keep asking me like you want to change my mind and actually reconsider my decision." Aria snapped."No please don't say that." Rob
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 104: I want to help
Harry could not stop thinking about his mother, he wondered why she felt the need to lie about going to Brooklyn if she didn't have any ulterior movie. Certainly, something was wrong and he was willing to find out. Since he wasn't there, he was calling to call the one person he could ask about it and that was Get-high. He resolved to try his best to be tactical while he asked him about it. He would get his information without giving away any information from his end. Easy, he convinced himself it was going to be. He inhaled as he called Get-high. When his screen started showing 'ringing' he rubbed his palm together to steady his breathing.Get-high picked up. "What's up bro?""I'm just here chilling, how about you?" Harry asked, not revealing too much of his uneasiness."Good good, so do you want some stuff?" He knew what Get-high was asking about but that wasn't the reason he called."Hmm not yet," Harry replied. "Actually I wanted to ask if you're still at the hood.""Oh yes. You wa
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 105: your words are perfect
Harry slouched on the sofa, thinking about what his mother had said to him. He felt constricted in his chest and useless because he couldn't do anything to help her. He had been so carried away, trying to get dirts on Robert and seek his father's validation, not knowing his mother was facing a problem and would probably need his help. All these while, he had had misplaced priorities and had forgotten to pay attention to the one person who had risked her lives countless times when they were in the house of that sick abuser to save him. He was angry. He balled his fist and wanted to release the anger by punching the wall and then he remembered the form of help she wanted, she wanted him to take good care of Bryan and so he took a deep breath and walked into Bryan's room, knowing that she would be happy to know that Bryan was taken good care of.He knocked at door twice, no response. He knew Bryan was in there. Maybe he had his headset strapped in his ears that's why he couldn't hear hi
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 106: uncertainty, regrets, purpose
Harry didn't know what to think about the information he had just gotten. It was all he had wanted for the longest period of time now. But over the past few days he had been experiencing a change of heart. Now, he wasn't sure if that was what he still wanted anymore.So what do you suggest we do, he texted the spy again.Stick to our original plan that we initially drafted, she replied.Before he could type another message. He was three dots jumping on the screen meaning she was still typing. When her message came in, he saw: here are four media houses we could send the information to and we are sure they'd go viral...Harry knew that was the initial plan. For her to get information about Robert and then they would send the information to the internet and their father would see it and get disappointed in him. But lately he has been spending time with Bryan and thinking about how to help his mother. He didn't want to think about Robert and how to get dirt because that was the least of
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 107: news all round
When Robert saw the headline, his eyes widened in horror, thinking about who had done this. He knew how him and Aria had tried to tuck that side of their relationship underneath the surface, yet it still came out. He couldn't just think about how the person had gotten the information. Who could have done this to them? Do they now have enemies that were after them and would do anything to haunt them? Funnily enough, his instinct had narrowed the search down in the face of the chaos, he knew the person must have come from his own end. He just knew as he texted Aria to confirm if he had seen it too.R: Have you seen what's on air about us? *Attached a few links*As he pressed the power button of his phone, he thought about what his father would think when he would see the headline. Isn't it funny how he tried his best to keep that away from his father but it still ended up coming out to the open. Now not only his father would be aware of it all, but also Harry, Lauren and Bryan would see
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 108: grief
The world in front of Aria came to a halt. Her ears couldn't register any sound, except the frantic beating of her heart. Aria's legs felt void of bones and incapable of holding her upright as the pack of fruits slipped through her sweaty palms. Powered by the rush of adrenaline, she scurried towards the bed and shook her mother's stiff body, desperate to hear her utter another weak sound even if it was the last thing she would hear. Aria muttered rushed prayers accompanied by muffled sobs."No, mom. No mom, you can't do this!" She pleaded with the unmoving body. "You don't know how hard I've been working for you. You can't just disappear on me! You can't..." "Doctor," she yelled from the bed, unwilling to free her hold on her mother as though she had the power to pull her back to life.Soon, the doctor and two other nurses rushed into the room, their gazes filled with a knowing sense of horror. The doctor immediately placed the stethoscope on her chest,
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 109: sorry father
The fact that Robert still hadn't gotten a call from his father after the article was put up startled and scared him more than the article itself did. At first when he saw the article, he thought about his father's reaction. He pictured his father's unsmiling face and the stern voice in which he would employ when scolding him. He also considered his employees facial expression when they would see him at work. He couldn't care less about them because he had the power to make the anyone jobless within seconds but of course he didn't have the heart to relive any of their duties if they haven't committed a serious offense.He could easily shrug off the reaction regardless of how it may affect him but he wasn't sure Aria could do that, hence his advice to her but she still hasn't responded to his text. He wondered if she was alright, it was unusual for her. Usually they texted every morning, it was getting close to 2pm and she still hasn't responded to his message.
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 110: I'll be there for you
Robert arrived at the hospital and the first thing he did was to hug Aria tightly, enveloping her in the warmth he had to offer. If through this process he could transfer her pain to himself, he could have done it. He listened to Aria keenly talking about different scenarios that could have played out. He wanted to tell that she couldn't have done anything to save her but first, he let her indulge in her fantasies."I'm sorry about this," Robert muttered, rubbing her hair.Without moving her body, she glanced up at him. "Don't leave me.""I won't baby, I'll never." Robert made the promise with everything in him and he had the confidence that no matter how stormy the weather may be, he'd always be there for Aria."But what if I had just stayed with her?" Aria asked, searching his eyes for answers that would serve as a consolation."I don't know about that sincerely, but baby -""I know you want to say there's nothing I'd have done
