The Billionaire's Bargain Bride CHAPTER 49
SOPHIA For the past four days, Damian did not let a day pass without drinking himself to a mess and I am angry with him for doing so and also for not delving deep into issues before passing his final judgment. Why would Damian of all people let himself with all his wealth be deceived easily? If Melissa could run a background check to find more details about me, tell me why can't Damian do so for crucial matters. He is just so gullible. He is so blinded by Melissa. Seeing him drink himself to mess made me sad. Deep down I know I still care even though I am grumpy and reserved these days making sure I mind my business but it's hard for me.The day I slept away from home in Mark's house, it's been just me and Selena. After I felt better, I had a warm shower and got dressed in comfortable clothes before heading down to the dining room for dinner. I asked Selena if my husband had come home but she told me he hadn't. All through the dinner I wasn't comfortable, my instincts kept troubling
The Billionaire's Bargain Bride CHAPTER 50
SOPHIA As I walked out of my room dressed in blue trouser jeans and a white top, my hair tied in a ponytail, the first person I met was Selena carrying breakfast to the dining table which I was sure was mine. These days I normally have my breakfast alone. Sometimes Selena will sit along with me as we chat. Although at first, I was kind of resistant to it, she kept on engaging me in conversations and I had no choice but to give in to it. I know she has been trying to show her concern for me which I appreciate a lot. I am getting used to talking to her alone in this big mansion and I don't care if Damian talks to me or not. The one thing that breaks my heart is I always see myself desperately craving for his attention which is what I hate.He talks to me though which is not more than greeting and the other is when I have done something wrong which he will mean to me. Still, I do crave his attention because I have been sleeping all alone to myself in the cold hands of the bed. I need h

DAMIANDamn it!!! It's been ten minutes past the time scheduled for the meeting with the new investors who showed interest in investing in my company and I am all alone in the boardroom. What's going on? I took out my cell phone from my pocket suit. I dialed Authur’s number and I placed the phone to my ear. He picked after a few rings. “Where the hell are you?” I growled. “Sorry Boss I just finished using the restroom and I will be with you right away," he said subserviently. "You better." I hung up. These new billionaires who are investing in my company their deals are worth millions of Dollars. I couldn't help but smile to myself at the thought of it.I got on from my seat and I trailed around the boardroom with my hand tucked in my pockets. I held footsteps and I turned around just to see Arthur strutting into the room with worry written all over his face. “What's going on?” I asked impatiently with my arms opened by my sides. He cringed his head in reply which got me more c

DAMIAN“Hello, Mr. Damian Kingsley. We are sorry to let you know our company can't collaborate with you anymore. Our standards demand that we work with businesses that have high values and we can't partner with you anymore due to circumstances beyond our control. Thank you.”“Can we please talk about this?” “Hello!”“Hello!”I heard no answer from the other end of the call. I stared at the phone screen blankly just to see the call end. It can't be true. Someone, please tell me they are joking. I hastily dialed the number as my hands trembled and sweat immediately trickled down my head. "The subscriber you dialed is switched off, Thank you.”My heart hit my rib cage and my eyes fluttered countless times staring at the phone screen with my eyes widened, I dialed the number again. “The subscriber you dialed is switched off, Thank you.” “Fuck!” I shrieked, smashing the phone on the tiles and it shattered. I stood blazing with anger as I stared blankly at the spoiled phone on the floo

DAMIAN I scoop Sophia in bridal style strutting furiously out of the hotel room and then towards the elevator. Authur carried her stilettos and her cell phone. Her grip around my neck tightened as she stared at me with erotic eyes. I halted in my tracks glaring at her which was short-lived then shook my head swiftly in reprimand to her actions. Even in my hands she never stopped squirming and my grasp around her body tightened just to prevent her from falling to the ground. She looks too innocent for what she just did. Despite all the nonsense she has been doing lately all my reactions towards her is to keep her in check so she can change her ways. She still does something to my heart. But right now what she has done is nothing compared to her past scandals. We descended in the elevator and then walked out of the hotel to the car. Authur opened the car door for me, I laid her in, as she lay loose on the back seat. I glared at her then I shook my head, slamming the car door, as ang

SOPHIA “Ohh!” I yawned with my hands stretched then I turned over in bed and continued with my sleep. I moved my hand beside the pillow in the quest to get a hold of my phone so I could check what time it was. After moving my hand for a while without getting a grasp of my phone, my eyes widened,“My phone,” I muttered to myself, sitting on the bed. Damn it! I remember vividly, yesterday I was waiting for Mark on the street then two guys walked over to me and we were talking the next thing I felt a poke at my neck. When I woke up I was in a hotel and that dick head forced a drink down my throat. I am glad he didn't touch me. if Damian had delayed any further the idiot would have smacked my peach. Af!! At first, the idiot was touching the sensitive parts of me when my tits stood firm, he left me to take his bath. I couldn't resist his touches because I was already weak. The opened and I looked in the direction just to see Damian piercing his cold gaze at me which made me nibble at m

SOPHIA How could I have believed Damian would slap the hell out of me? Not just once but twice. He once promised me I made his life easy so he wouldn't let anything happen to me. Not even he will dare to place his hands on me but he has done it. He has been hurting me. This time around he didn't lock me up like the other time, but he did the most painful thing to me by taking my phone away from me. No making of calls, no binge-watching of contents. The thought of it is making me lose my mind. My phone is the next thing that keeps me going aside from Selena. For a week now, I haven't heard from Dad because I can't afford to lie anymore to him when he requires to know if I am fine. At first, I was telling him we were living well and everything was fine but he kept on telling me he was worried about me. I understand the fatherly love but if I tell him all that has been happening recently, he will blame himself for giving me out for this marriage in the first place and he won't forgive
The Billionaire's Bargain Bride CHAPTER 56
SOPHIA I huffed to calm myself from the nervousness his glaring gaze had on me then I stepped into the room hesitantly, carefully closing the door, making sure it made no awry sound so I wouldn't make things worse than it was. I stood in front of Damian as his gaze scanned me, my eyes flickering like I had done something awry and was brought under the law. “Can we talk?” I said quickly as my voice came barely above a whisper, my heart pounding so hard in my chest. He sat still, glaring at me, and that only stiffened the expression on his face. I managed to maintain eye contact with him for a while and I must tell you that all I saw in his eyes was hatred. I understand, for a man of authority and prestige like him all that I caused him, I mean all that I was used as a scapegoat that I caused him is something to be mad at me. But I can't take the blame. I didn't do it. Didn't Dr. Lucas tell him I was given an aphrodisiac that day at the hotel? He ran a test on me when I was carr

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

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

“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
