The Billionaire's Bargain Bride CHAPTER 123
For more than a year after Sophia was happily wedded to Mark, Sophia slept on the bed. In Between her back which leaned at the headboard was a soft pillow. her big tummy pointed outward. A quilt covered her fresh and smooth legs which she had covered since last night. The early morning sun shone into the bedroom from the floor-to-ceiling windows which made the gleaming room brighter. Her face locked on her phone screen as she perused through it casually, a smile tugging at the corner of her lips. Her phone chimed as a message dropped in her WhatsApp. It was a message from Selena, [Ma'am it's good to see you have gained your happiness.] Sophia had been chatting with her since she woke up from bed. She had been in talks with Selena and she promised to bring her over to work in her company. Sophia replied, [ Be prepared to come over to the UK whenever I say so]Immediately she sent the message, Sophia off the phone. Her face stared nonchalantly at the screen for a while as she was d

Mark sat in the waiting room at the hospital, dressed in black trouser pants, and a long-sleeved white crisp shirt. He placed his elbows at his knees and his hands clasped together under his chin. His face was nonchalant with a glimpse of emotions coated in his eyes. Even though he looked relaxed and calm, his heart lingered with unease because of the situation at hand. After a moment of basking in his thoughts, A tall figure trudged into the room, calling his attention. Mark lifted his gaze in that direction. The man he saw was the very person he didn't have the patience to wait for anymore. Mark sprung to his feet, his heart slightly pounding in his chest and his breathing was palpable. “How is she?" He asked with concern, his eyes widened at the doctor as he swallowed hard.The doctor smiled, tucking his hands in the pockets of his lab coat. “Gentleman, your wife is in good condition after childbirth.” Mark sighed in relief, “Ah!" “W-What about the baby?" He stuttered, his gaze

SOPHIA What could it be? I wondered as my phone chimed and I took it up with my eyes engrossed in the screen‘Meet me in the sitting room right now, Sophia.’ The text message sounds very urgent. I got up from the bed and I tied my gown around my body. “I'm here Dad,” my voice struck into his reverie as he sat on the couch with his shoulder slumped, he gave a sharp inhale as he stared at me with his eyes shadowed in frustration. What might be wrong with him? it should better be something measly, I thought. “Sophia I called for you because you will be getting married to Damian in a few days.” He huffed then cringed his head in shame as his foot kept tapping the floor slowly. My body stiffened as my eyes widened.Unbelievable! With a confused look, “What? Is that a joke? I don't understand why telling me this out of nowhere,” My voice quivered. He slowly looked at me with his head slightly raised, “You have to Sophie, consider me, else I will end up in jail.” I stood right in f

SOPHIA I stormed out of the house without looking back or caring to listen to my Dad as he called behind me. I just can't sit and watch my humble self get married to a man I haven't seen in my entire life. My greatest fear is he is a billionaire. Who knows if he is Christian Grey kind of Billionaire? God forbid. I have to put in my best. I love Jimmy. What will become of him if he knows that I am getting married to someone else? He won't take it likely on himself because Jimmy loves me too. I have to go talk to him. He has been supportive since I have been with him, He is caring and to crown it all he respects me a lot. I can't break a good man's heart. My heart won't let me be since my guilty conscience will deal the hell out of me.“Take me to Nw 7th Avenue Rd.” I got into the car so I will go talk to Jimmy. He is not that rich but he has a reasonable number of well-to-do friends. He can come up with something reasonable and also get some help from his friends since they are his f

SOPHIA I guess it's over between us. I have to face my dilemma. Life can be so frustrating, I can't believe all this is happening at the same time. Whatever it may be, let it be. I sat on the chair with my hand resting on the adorned table with beautiful flowers in the center as I looked at the glittering smooth surface. My fingers tapping on the surface, honestly my gaze is here but my mind isn't here, I kept pondering on all that happened just today, the more I tried not to think about it the more it kept drawing the picture of Jimmy in my head. I heaved a sigh, “Barman, come” as I motioned my hand at him with my eyes sank in frustration. “I am here, Madam.” He said with a mellifluous voice, as he bowed to me. My face was stern, “give me a bottle of Vodka”“Okay ma,” as he leaves. “Wait,” my voice struck him and he stopped in his tracks suddenly and walked back to me. “Make it 5 bottles,” I said slowly as I narrowed my eyes on him. “Don't be surprised, is this the first time

SOPHIA “I told you to get up and let me take you away from here but you claimed to be so stubborn. Keep quiet,” His voice firm as he struts towards the door. He walked with me over his shoulder to a black GLC 300 SUV and pulled the back door open. He dropped me recklessly, “Now don't be so vicious, you had only alcohol and you are behaving like this? what could have become of you if you took the drink that guy gave to you.” As he bent over me to buckle my seat belt, I pushed him away, “Leave me alone.” He glared at me, “Silly, Don't push me, and don't push your Savior.” He finally buckled my belt and closed the door. “Andy, Drive.” The driver nodded subserviently, “Yes Sir.” As he moved the car. He broke the calm atmosphere in the Car “Where is your house?” I'm not telling him I don't know him, what if he is a bad guy? And who knows if he has succeeded in kidnapping me? I made him look at me as I pulled him by the collar, I looked into his eyes, “I'm not telling you, Go to he

SOPHIA I stood with the veil covering my face as sweat trickled down my face,“I don't think I can do this.”My Dad who stood beside me held my hand as we moved to the sofa in the room I got dressed to proceed to the church“You can, my daughter.”I looked at my Dad intently with emotions all over my face as I heaved a sigh of relief placing my hands on my chest, “ I have made up my mind to do this but I'm so scared, Dad.”“Just do this for our sake, For the sake of your aging father, please Sophia don't mess this up it's our only hope,” Dad said sorrowfully, his brows creased as his eyes brimmed with tears he couldn't help but let it shimmer down his cheek. He is truly doing this because he has no other option and I have to make things right by marrying Damian whom I will get to know on the Altar as the priest declares us Husband and Wife I looked at Dad as I held his hand tightly in my arms and I didn't know when my sight was blurry with tears. Seeing my Dad cry, He is so emotion
The Billionaire's Bargain Bride CHAPTER 6
SOPHIA My sight first caught on the big and wide bed neatly dressed with white bedsheets and four pillows at the head of it, My lips opened in Wow, Honestly, this place is amazing, the whole bedroom is white, everything from the curtains on the windows to the floor, the couch, the wardrobe and the chandelier also shimmering with pure brightness.The atmosphere can make one feel so relaxed and if they should be worried and perplexed this room will chill them off. I slowly turned and looked at Damian whose intense eyes were already fixed on me with his arms akimbo as I silently inspected his whole bedroom just with my eyes. I stared at him with unease lingering in my heart which came as a result of the effect his sight had on me, “Your Bedroom is lovely,” I said quickly as I slightly nodded my head and let a gulp down my throat but he just winked at me, “You are welcome,” as he sat on the bed removing his jacket suit from his body. I cleared my throat as he looked at me in response,

“I-I d-didn't m-m-mean to push you. I didn't know it was you," Jimmy stuttered, his body trembling the most. The thought of losing his job scared the sh*t out of him. “Don't you know she is my woman?" Jimmy nodded at the same time he shook his head in reply, “I had no idea." Mark turned to his guard with the most scary figure which his sinew muscles explicitly showed under his suit. “Make sure he is paid his wages before the hiring and firing department looks into his matter . He nodded subserviently, "Alright Boss.” "Take him away," Mark commanded. His guards pulled Jimmy away as he never fell short of pleading and calling on Sophia and Mark to forgive him. But all his pleas and cries all fell on deaf ears. After Jimmy was taken away and the noise had died down, Mark turned to Sophia as he stared at her with passion, “It's okay," he said gently in a doting tone. He didn't bother to know what happened, all he knew was Jimmy was working in the company and he never knew his relat

A black sleek Bentley pulled in front of the towering building. Gradually, The card door opened and Sophia stepped down from the car she casually shut the door with a slight thud, her face indifferent and a smile tugging at her lips.Taking her time as she leaned at the car, she clutched her purse in her left hand and her slightly cringed face focused on the phone screen in her hand as she silently went through the content on it. The white haute couture gown with spaghetti straps fit her so perfectly revealing her cleavage as the dress pushed up her breasts. Her brown eyes flashed with a tinge of brightness accentuating her beautiful face and her aura couldn't be ignored. Sophia got a message from Mark immediately after she got out of the car. [Good morning Sophie…Sorry, I couldn't come with you to your company but I am on my way. I will be with you in a jiffy.Love ya!]The smile on Sophia’s face broadened as she grinned uncontrollably, her hand adorably placed at her chest as h

Damian lounged on the couch in his chilly sitting room. His eyes drooped and his hair was disheveled from the constant ruffling of it. He sighed in frustration then his heart continued to rise and fall as he breathed. His heavy breath filled the air.His faded eyes darted around in the spacious room languidly, his heart restless as he yawned to get the answer to the one thing that troubled his heart. He had gone to broadcasting stations, live shows, newspapers, and magazines yet none of them couldn't give him a positive result after the publication he made at the various places. Even though he was frustrated, and had been having sleepless nights all night, he never backed down in searching and sending Authur to keep on investigating and gathering information. He still went further, telling Authur to get experienced people no matter the cost just to get him positive and heart-relieving news. “I don't care how much it will cost me or how long it will take me. All I know is I am going

Damian sat in his office, his indifferent face locked on the laptop as he carefully scrolled through the screen. One thing troubled his mind. The last time he visited Sophia, he was to go on a vacation the next day. He asked her to come with him but Sophia refused. However, before that, he had offered the keys to the Cool Maybach limited edition he bought for her. He further went on to pronounce he was willing to let her be the CEO of Trilix, His company Sophia worked in as the Head of the M.O group. “Damian you are unbelievable! just because I was kind enough to give you food to eat you think I had forgiven you?" Sophia spat out” His face became pale as Sophia’s words from that day replayed in his head. He froze staring blankly at the laptop screen as the thought of her actions that day clogged his heart in heavy emotions. Since he brought up the topic thinking things would be right instead things went south and Sophia scolded him and drove him curtly from her house.‘I should h

Damian stood in front of the door, his hand grabbing his waist as he sighed in frustration, his faded gaze staring at the door. He had been standing there for more than thirty minutes since he arrived. He knocked countless times but no reply came from within. He sighed in frustration, cringing his head, ‘Could it be that she doesn't want to see me again?’ He mused. He raised his head, “I know she is in there," he muttered, his finger pointing at the door then back grabbing his waist. Authur, who stood beside him after listening to what he said after a while said, “I don't think so Boss," he uttered calmly with a lace of concern in his voice. Damian turned to Authur hastily, his face turned red, “Then where is she?" He barked, "What did she want me to do before she can soften down a bit?” Authur stood like a servant before the king as he listened to Damian’s outburst having no words to say. Indeed it was heart-wrenching when all Damian’s efforts yielded fruitless results. No matt

Damian only blinked and rolled his eyes around the room uncontrollably. He stared at her in his heaviness of heart not having the guts to utter a word since his heart was clogged with emotions and his throat tightened with a knot. “How?" Sophia screamed, this time more loudly, her voice resonating in the whole room and to more than just the room they were in. Damian only stared blankly at her in reply. The emotions and shame rained on him this time more than ever which made his knees fade away as they went weak. Sophia scrutinized his face, her brow creased as she glared at him, and her eyebrows which rigid slightly trembling. “Even after all the nonsense….” Her finger pointed stiffly at Damian, "You still have the guts to treat me like I am a prisoner under your custody like you always wanted” She barked, her fingers pointing back at her chest as her heart throbbed with pain the most.Awkward silence stealthily swope over the atmosphere as Damian’s lips were sealed. Seeing that Da

Sophia stood in front of the wide mirror, her brown eyes frowning back at her from the mirror as her sullen face from the mirror etched with emotions. frowning at herself one more time from the mirror she adjusted the round neck of the black gown she wore, the sternness of her face surging on. When she was done with applying a red lipstick on her lips she turned and strutted to the bed, her clicking stilettos on the cold tires taking over the silence atmosphere in the room. She perched on the edge of the bed, her hand grasping her purse and she flung it open, her hand tucked in it simultaneously with her gaze searching for something. The calm sound filled her ears like a wall clock ticking as someone knocked on the door. Sophia's frowning gaze starred in that direction and the intensity of her glaring gaze reached a higher climax in the blink of an eye. Her eyelids knitted together and her lips pinned together in a straight line as her heart throbbed with anger. Her heart tightened
