The Billionaire’s Bartered Bride Chapter 77
The next couple of days came and went and Nicole didn't hear anything from her sister, she did speak with her mom and dad who told her Natalie has been avoiding them even more, her parents assured her that Natalie won't do anything stupid, she was fine with her not talking to her again, if she wanted to just be negative then it was better they both stayed away from each other, she couldn’t deny the fact that she was hurt by how Natalie was behaving, yes she tried to be positive but every time she thought of the situation and how she and Natalie never had any major issues since they were kids, it hurt even more but what could she do when her twin decided to be insensitive? Nothing, just do her and mind her family and life, no matter how hard it is to adjust to Natalie hating her."Okay, the third month is done, We are getting somewhere.Nicole applauded as she looked at the painting she had just finished, this came out better than the others, and the slight baby pump made it even more

Rafael walked in on his wife crying again and this wasn't the first time, it was becoming a norm that he didn't like at all, he rushed to her side."Hey, love,""Rafael,""What? What happened?"Rafael,"She was crying so much now, Rafael still didn't know what happened that would make her cry so hard and he was already sure he wouldn't like it and already knew it might have something to do with her twin."Baby, what's going on?""It's Nat, she told them,""Told who? What did she tell them?""Natalie, she called me and told me she just had an interview with one of the news agencies and that she told them everything and that they are going to release it,"She cried, okay that wasn't what he had expected her to say at all, why would her twin do such a thing to her, he didn't even think Natalie could do such to her sister and why was she doing it, to begin with."Why is Natalie doing all of these, what does she hope to gain? What does she want from you?""You, Rafael, she wants you back,

"I am your wife not her, you proposed to me not her, we were going to get married, I just panicked and ran away for a while, if Nicole hadn't been such a betrayer then right now we won't be here,"She respo loudly, Rafael shook his head at her delusion."Keep thinking that Natalie, newsflash, I won't have loved you if I had ended up marrying you, I would have taken what I wanted and divorced you, remember you signed a prenup, well thanks to your sister, my beloved wife, you won't lose anything, that's the only thing you have from this whole thing, as for my heart, it only beats for one person and that my wife, Mrs. Nicole Salvador, oh and about the certificate, I got it changed, I don't need to be public about it and my wife is dropping all your brands, you can go about your business yourself or I will pay for the fines of breaking the contracts,"Rafael said, got up, and left the place without a back glance, all the way out he could hear Natalie shouting that he would regret it, that

"What are you saying Rafael? I can't let you do that,"Nicole said shaking her head in disapproval, no way was she going to let Rafael announce anything, no, she couldn't, that would bring attention to her, when he had told her he had something like a solution she had been hopeful but then when he told her what he wanted to do, she lost that ray of hope, he didn't get the point, he didn't get why she was so worried about the interview Natalie did, she didn't want the public attention on her, she didn't want it and his solution will do that too, bring her to the spotlight."Honey, can you listen to me? This is our best bet if we wait till after her interview sirs that would make the heat even more,""No, I don't want that, I will talk to my sister, my parents are trying to get through her, I don't want either of these, no,""Nicole, you are not getting the point, whether your sister decides to change her mind or not, they will air it, even if they don't, air her whole interview they wi

"Rafael,"She cried holding on to him."It's fine, it's going to be just fine, don't beat yourself over this, I promise I won't let anyone come near you, they won't dare."He assured, Nicole wasn't sacred, they couldn't physically harm her, she just didn't want to be in the spotlight what more it was not even a positive exposure but a negative one, she picked up her phone and checked online, the articles were starting to pour in, Natalie did her dirty, she fed her to the lions, she couldn't believe her sister could do such a thing to her, no, if anyone had told her this will happen at the beginning of the year, she would have fought with the person."Stop looking at those Nicole, don't torture yourself, you already know it will be bad, don't give her the power to get to you, they are already working on bringing down those articles and my side will counter her story, don't worry, I am going to fix this, okay?""Yes,"She replied, she had no other choice anyway, Rafael got a call and le

Nicole entered her parent's house, willing herself to calm down and not do anything that she might end up regretting but the more she thought of how Natalie has publicly ruined her name, the anger she got and she couldn't keep it in no matter how she tried, it was just too much to bear, how could her sister do such a thing to her? How could she ruin the image she had spent years building and keeping away from public eyes, what more Natalie got her business involved, She was spreading lies and even went as far as revealing her gallery location to the public, that move was a different kind of like she had hoped her twin won't sink to but Natalie did that, and Nicole has lost it, she couldn't stay quiet again even though coming here was going against the promise she had made to Rafael, she was just going to confront her sister and go back home."Natalie!!"She yelled when she entered the house, she knew her parents weren't going to be in her house, so she would give Natalie a piece of he

Nicole wasn't surprised anymore, no, she wasn't Natalie had done enough in the space of one week that nothing she did or will do in the future will shock her anymore, she sure became the devil."If that's what you think will happen, then think again because Rafael won't leave me, you are just going to get used to the fact that he choose me and will never leave me,""You think? Do you even know the reason the mofo wanted to marry me was because of the inheritance grandma gave us? I am guessing you don't, neither do your parents,"Natalie spat out."What? My parents? They are your parents too,""No, they are not, they seize to be my parents when they picked you over me when they decided to let you have what's mine and even sided with you,"Natalie yelled."So what now? Do you realize people are starting to get tired of your stories and you decide to spice things up by lying and also giving out my private information? Why? Do you expect your minions to come after me?""I don't do, minion

She walked back towards her ward in a sad mood, she needed to speak with Rafael and hoped he come back soon, instead of going back to the room, she opted for going to the hospital rooftop, she asked for directions and was shown the way up, she saw a few people up there and went to the more quiet side, sat down and brought out her phone from the hospital gown pocket, she had found the phone next to her when she woke up this morning, she thought she had lost it but thankfully not, she played with the phone before dialing his number, it didn't go through, maybe he turned it off, she wished he could just appear in front of her, she needed to talk to him, they have been separated for too long, she wanted him back now."Rafael,"She whispered his name."What are you doing here on your own, I have been looking everywhere for you,"She heard his voice and turned to see him waving at her, she stood up from where she sat, he appeared, she smiled when he did before bursting into tears, he ran t

Nicole looked around when she woke up again, Rafael wasn't by her side anymore, she looked to where Natalie was seated with Aron by her side, they were talking in whispers, she had told him to go and not return until he has gotten enough rest, he didn't want to leave so she had yelled at him to get out of her presence, it was harsh but she needed him to take care of himself too, she didn't want him to be careless with his health, he had surgery and he wasn't taking care of himself, imagine how scared she had been when all she wanted was to playfully hit him yet she ended up hurting him, the look of pain in his eyes had sent a shiver of fear down her body, she expected to see him again at least before she went to sleep last night but he hadn't shown up, when she woke up this morning, she had looked around for him too, she knew she told him to rest and he needed it but she had things to tell him, it was almost afternoon and he still wasn't back."Nicole, you are awake,"Natalie said as

"What happened?"The doctor asked looking at his hand."I mistakenly hit it somewhere and it is so fucking painful,"He said as the doctor helped him remove his shirt, he saw that his hand was bleeding again, Nicole didn't even hit hard enough for him to be bleeding this much."This is why I told you to look after yourself but you claimed to be fine, now we have to do a restitch or it might get infected and that's not good,"The doctor said to him as he placed a call across, it happened so fast, one minute he was watching the doctor give out instructions to whoever on the other side of the call, and the next minute, he saw himself falling, his head spinning and he couldn't control himself, he heard the doctor yell for someone and that was all he could remember.When he woke up again, he was back on the bed he had run away from, with the doctor, not the one he was with earlier but another doctor fixing something on the drip near his bed."You are awake, you stubborn man, you nearly kil

Rafael looked around the room he was in, the pain in his hands finally subsided, he got up and pulled his shirt on just as the door opened."Oh, you are up,"Lance said walking up to him."Yes, were you here throughout the night?""No, I just came in, I had to go to the police station, the other man was arrested this morning, but sadly Leonard died on the way to the hospital last night,"Lance revealed."What about my wife and her sister? Are they awake yet?"He asked standing on fixing his trousers."I don't know yet, I came straight here when I was told you are here, I can go and check for you if you want,"He offered."No, that's fine I will go myself,""I don't think that's advisable seeing that you had surgery a few hours ago,"Lance said trying to block his way."I am fine, don't you have things to do?""Yes, I will be on my way, call me if you need anything,"Lance said as they both walked out of his hospital room, they parted ways as Rafael walked straight to the doctor's offi

"Nicole?"She heard her name, it wasn't just anyone calling her name it was Rafael, he came, he was here, he came for her."Don't come any closer, don't fucking come closer or she will be dead,"Leonard yelled holding on to Nicole, he pointed the gun at her, Rafael slowed down for a moment, she wanted to run to him, run into his embrace but she knew doing that would be catastrophic, so she stayed still."Rafael,"She cried"Baby, it will be fine I got you,"He said, she couldn't make out his face properly, the room wasn't dark as before but her eyes were blinded by tears and her body tried."Let her go, Leonard, let her go, she didn't do anything to you, fucking let her go,"He told Leonard who pulled her even closer and pressed the gun to her face."You think I am a fool? I should let her go? No way, if I go down, she dies,"He yelled at him pointing the gun at him."Let her go and face me, you moron,""Please don't Rafael don't provoke him, please,"She pleaded, her voice was almost

After the talk with Rafael, Nicole couldn't fall asleep or do anything else again, she just sat and listened, Rafael said he will come and get them and she didn't want to be asleep when that happened, she told her sister to sleep so that she can be on watch, it seems like the younger guy finally left because she hasn't seen him since after their talk the other day. She silently prayed that Rafael will come for them tonight, she didn't want to spend a third night here, she wanted to go home, go home not to her family's mansion but to the house she shared with Rafael, even if he doesn't want to live in the mansion anymore she would stay with him at his new house, anywhere he was would be her home, she couldn't wait to tell him that she was sorry for everything and that she loves him so much,Nicole heard the noise in the distance, not just any kind of noise, vehicles were entering where they are, she quickly got up and walked to where Natalie lay."Natie? Natie? I think help is here, th

"Baby? What baby?"He asked."Nicole is pregnant, I know she hadn't told you yet, and she would want to tell you herself but you have to know that my daughter is pregnant with your child and you have to get them back soon, this is not good for the baby,"She replied, he didn't know what to say, he didn't know Nicole was pregnant, she didn't say a word to him, he thought, God, he thought the doctor said she won't be able to get pregnant again, dies that mean. Oh God, he needed to get her back. Aron collected the phone from him and spoke to Nicole's parents while he sat there still in shock.The police, his own team, and even the twins' parents agreed that it would be better if they involved security to avoid any foul play, he reluctantly agreed.Leonard didn't call back, instead, he texted a location where they can meet for the exchange and it was game on.Preparation for the meet up was super easy, it was the easy part of the whole thing, he wanted to go alone, wanted to just give the
