The Billionaire’s Catch Chapter 17: Help!?!, no thank you!
Khloe Ferguson rolled out of the bed and sneezed. “Is someone talking about me?” She asked rhetorically. She got up and checked her phone. "Ah, 12:47 AM! No wonder I'm so tired," Khloe thought, rubbing her eyes as she got up to use the restroom. She had cried herself to sleep and was up way too late, lost in thoughts and worries. The sneeze had startled her, making her realise how late it was. She yawned and stretched, deciding it was finally time to get some snacks as she hadn't eaten. She walked out of her room and to the grave night snack. On her way to the kitchen, she heard mumbling sounds from Kelly's room and wondered why she was up. She pressed her ears against her door to hear what she was crying too. The sibs grew louder and Khloe decided to open the door, revealing Kelly crying on the phone. “Kelly? What's wrong?” Khloe asked, concerned about her tone. She walked closer to her crippled elder sister and sat beside her on the bed. “I.. Matt broke up with me,” she said, s

“Marry me…” as the words escaped from his lips, Khloe was beyond shocked to speak. “Is he actually proposing to me? What kind of psycho proposes to a girl he just met?” All forms of thought ran through her head, not being able to fathom any also, not able to speak out her thoughts. She still sat frozen unable to talk or move her muscles, like she had suddenly gone paralyzed. “These are the exact words my father has always wanted me to say to the girl I meet. I just can't succumb to that.. I need time, you know,” he said, being emotional. Khloe was moved to hold his hands, she gently brushed his hands and held it. “It's alright. Parents can sometimes be like that. It's really difficult for them to but they wouldn't understand the pain and torture they're putting their children to ” Khloe said, giving him a warm and comforting smile which made his heart flutter and fireworks exploding inside of him. “I'm glad I had this discussion with you and I hope we become close later in the

“Don't you, Mark?” Brandon repeated his questions. “Miss Ferguson is a very beautiful woman and also really attractive but I don't like her in that manner. I admire her confidence and bravery but I'm not lustful towards her,” Arthur said, trying to sound professional as he maintained his steeze. “Oh well. I thought you did but I'm glad you answered honestly,” Brandon said, with a smile but Arthur saw through it, it was a fake smile and he knew Brandon was trying to get something out of him. His heart was still beating fast and he clenched his chest to subdue the rate but it did little. “I want you to stay away from her. Just be her driver and nothing more. I know people like you, always trying to get close with their boss just to steal from them. Mere gold diggers,'' Brandon wasn't smiling this time, his demeanour and aura became dark and sinister. Arthur almost flinched at his words but remembered who he was. “You don't have to worry yourself. I'm just here for my job, that's all

After the reunion between Arthur and his childhood friend, Kelly, who confessed her feelings to him, out of the blue. He didn't know how to turn her down so he just sent her home. Meanwhile, Khloe and Brandon were on their “tour” trying everything, every game and the likes. Although all these were going on, Khloe's mind wasn't at rest as she kept wondering what Arthur's relationship was with that girl. She kept glancing over them with this sensation, she felt mixed emotions, anger, nonchalance and frustration. Arthur seemed to have some deep secret which she couldn't unfold and for some reason, it bothered her. “Hey focus,” Brandon said, snapping her back to the present. The field had a lot of fun activities of which Brandon and Kelly were engaged in one. “We are at the shooting range next. Ready to show off those skills of yours?” Brandon asked teasingly. Khloe turned to him, wearing a bright smile on her face, pushing those thoughts of her chauffeur and his mystery girlfrien

The buzzing sound of her alarm woke her up, she turned to where the sound came from and turned off the alarm. Khloe stretched her arms and legs before getting up to head to the bathroom, where she did her business and had her bath. Determined, she was set to go to work to conquer what life would throw at her and to solve all mysteries, including finding Mark's true identity by all means. “I'll be off to work in no time,” she said to Kelly who came down for breakfast. “So, you and Brandon. How has it been?” Kelly started, a smile curling up to her face in the form of a grimace. “Yeah, we're getting along pretty well. Turns out he's here to help the business grow,” she said, cutting a piece of meat with her cutlery and putting it in her mouth. “Are you sure? Because with what I heard yesterday, you guys seem closer than just friends,” Kelly added, squinting her eyelids. “It's not like that, Kelly. And where did you hear it.” “You're really popular after that divorce and comeback.

The meeting ended abruptly and everyone went back to their respective work and duties. Exhausted, Khloe returned to her office where Brandon was waiting for her.“I've been waiting for you,” he said professionally. Khloe grabbed her seat and sat behind her desk.“Yeah, I went to make myself a nice coffee.”“Caffeine isn't good for your health," Brandon advised Khloe, and she shrugged her shoulders, gulping the hot coffee.“I've been thinking about what the chauffeur said lately and it seemed to make sense. My only problem is; how does he know so much?” Brandon reasoned, rubbing his chin dramatically. His legs were crossed on her desk and his shoes were dirtying the cleaned desk. Since Khloe was a neat freak, it irritated him but he kept quiet.“Cut it out. He said he just knew,” Khloe said, trying to brush it off.“And believe that. I have my suspicions. …”“When have you not?” Khloe asked with an eye roll.“He seemed too smart if you ask me. I've researched his background?” He asked

Khloe Ferguson's heart raced as Brandon talked. Everytime someone mentions Arthur's name, her heart seems to get all excited, making it skip a beat. And not to forget, her face flushed like a ripe tomato. “I'm lost. What were you saying again?” She asked, trying to sound confident despite the flutters in her chest. “I was saying; I get it. You and your chauffeur have a thing for each other, its quite evident,” he said with emphasis on the thing. “And what makes you say that, Brandon?” Khloe asked defensively. “Believe me when I say, I know when someone is in love. My mom used to tell me about her love life. How she met my father and how they felt an instant connection. Like their fate had been knotted,” he explained. “You and your fantasies. My driver and I have no such thing. I simply like his skills, that's all. Besides, I just got out of marriage and I'm not planning on getting into any new relationship for now. I'm still healing,” Khloe said, it wasn't a lie but wasn't the

Arthur Cassius and Khloe Ferguson ended up chatting on their phones until they both fell asleep. The following day was his day off, Khloe wasn't going to work and Lucas was also not leaving the house, so Arthur stayed behind. “I better go meet with Sam and talk about the case and see how far they've gone,” he muttered, putting on his shirt and his pants when the doorbell rang suddenly. “I'm not expecting anyone. So who could that be?” He asked himself. Buckling his pants before going to get the door. The person on the other side kept ringing the doorbell non-stop. “I'm coming!!” Arthur yelled, as he got to the door and opened. Kelly stood in front of him with her arms crossed and her lips pout. “Kelly? I thought you went back to Maryland?” Arthur said, letting her in. “I didn't go back. I went to a friend's place. That isn't the issue. Why have you been ignoring me all this while, Arthur?” She said her tone rising. Arthur led the way to his living room and sat on the couch

The Billionaire’s Catch Chapter 111: The happy ending
Khloe decided to stay behind and work on reviving the late Williams Foster's companies. She employed private investigators who spotted the wrong that was affecting the company's growth. It seems Katrina had been on a quest to take money out of the company which was always deposited to her mother's bank account. Upon revelation of such information, Katrina and her mother, Rose were sent to jail to serve a lifetime sentence. Khloe reestablished everything right from hiring new and skilled staff, getting new furniture for the company and increasing the advertising of all the company's products. This brought joy and happiness to all the Fosters’ companies, thus increased growth of 15% in one month. Ethan on the other hand became messed up as a result of drinking alcohol all day and night. He became useless and couldn't even handle the only company he had so he was sent to a rehabilitation centre. After two months, Lucas decided to travel to Maryland to meet his only daughter because she

The next morning, Kelly woke up and walked to the next room to check on Khloe but to her surprise, she wasn't in the room. She proceeded downstairs only to find Khloe holding a travel bag. “I'm so sorry I didn't wake you up to tell you anything but I have to leave,” Khloe said. “It's okay but uhh…where are you going?” “I can't tell you that but be rest assured that I'm going to be fine. I have to do this alone,” Khloe said. Kelly looked at Khloe in deep confusion but she knew she wouldn't be able to stop her because determination was written all over her face. “Okay then Khloe but at least take my car,” Khloe suggested. “I don't think that'll be a great idea. How will you get it?” “What do you mean?” Kelly asked. “I'm leaving the country,” Khloe uttered. “Whattt??? Okay just take the car and leave the car keys with an officer. I'll get a can and pick it up once I'm done washing up.” Khloe hurriedly got the car keys and drove out of Kelly's home. “Hello Arthur. Khloe just l

“Ethan, what are you doing there? Where is Khloe?” Arthur asked.“Uh..umm…uhhh,” Ethan muttered.“Don't overthink it. It was a direct question. Where is she?” Arthur asked again, his voice raised above normal. “She…uhh, she went that way,” Ethan responded, his voice shaky.Arthur looked at the path and started running heading for the direction Ethan had pointed. Kelly ran right behind him as she shouted for him to slow down.“Wait Arthur, let's take my car. That way, we will get to her fast,” Kelly suggested.They both got into the car and drove away as they stared sideways in case of anything. Arthur let down the car window, took out his head and started calling out Khloe's name but all in vain.“I think I saw movement. Wait….it's Khloe,” Kelly uttered.Arthur immediately got out of the car before it could even stop. He panted as he finally caught up with her and slowly touched her arm.“Khloe, please wait. Please hear me out,” Arthur said in a gentle tone.“I don't know what to thi

“Wait up, Khloe,” Ethan called out.“I don't want to deal with you Ethan. What do you want now?” Khloe asked in a rather unpleasant tone.“I know I didn't treat you well but I'm now reformed. My eyes are open now. Hannah is not even my mother and I don't love Katrina anymore,” Ethan blabbered. “Why are you telling me all this and what makes you think I want to hear any of it? You really want to take advantage of the situation and take me back but that won't happen, not even in your wildest dreams,” Khloe yelled as she trolled through the woods.“Okay…okay, I understand. At least let me drive you home. You can't wander off on the streets at this time. It's not safe because we don't know if everyone that wants to harm you is out of the way.”“Okay fine but you mean nothing to me at all and….” She was still talking when a female figure appeared along the path they were taking.“You dirty pathetic thief, where is the key? You have to give it back,” Hannah said firmly, holding tight fists
The Billionaire’s Catch Chapter 107: Revelation
Kelly had just arrived at the mansion when she saw a convoy leave the premises followed by Arthur. They were all driving at full speed so this made Kelly turn around and follow them.“I wonder what Arthur is up to. He has been planning his schemes alone but today, I must find out,” she said, as she rushed to catch up with them.She followed closely as they drove into a seemingly quiet and isolated area. She was getting scared but it wasn't the time for her to back out because she had already come this far. Her mind raced with uncertainty and worry for what was ahead but she kept her eyes on the road, dimmed her car lights and created some distance so that she's not noticed. She could only trail along the back lights of the vehicle that was immediately in front of her. Kelly noticed that the vehicles she was following were starting to park so she looked for a spot to squeeze her relatively small car. She got out with the only light being the flashlight on her phone to follow Arthur and

“I am surely putting an end to that girl tonight and she won't even see it coming,” Hannah Foster said, firmly. “Yes mother…we are already waiting outside the residence where the two reside. She's not getting away this time and I'll make sure of that,” Marcus assured her on the other side of the call. “The warehouse at the South East of the farm is ready and that's where you'll bring that pathetic girl. My men are already positioned and there's no way she'll get out of this alive,” Hannah responded. Meanwhile Ethan had stopped by his mother's room to greet her when he heard muffled voices and couldn't believe what his mother had just said. He was so close to her that he had never imagined that she'd actually plot to have someone killed so he leaned forward to eavesdrop. “Finally we can get what's rightfully ours and also get rid of this bustard, Ethan,” she added. “Now is even the right time to tell this idiot that I'm not his real mother. I have had to deal with his idiocy for
The Billionaire’s Catch Chapter 105: Love in the air
Two years later, Arthur and Khloe's bond grew stronger by the day as their relationship blossomed into something beautiful, full of love, care and compassion. This was exactly what Khloe had always longed for and at this point, she hopes for nothing but longevity, sustainment and forever unending love. It was going on well between the couple but Arthur hadn't really had the time to tell Khloe the whole truth. He felt like keeping everything away from her was the best decision and that she had suffered way too much to take in all the nonsense that he had to say. At least that's what he called it…NONSENSE. Khloe and Arthur often had date nights both at the mansion and outdoors but at very specific spots. They valued their privacy a lot and they wanted to love themselves the best way they know how to. It was really beautiful because being in love really looked so good on Khloe. All this was happening and they had no idea of the evil plans that were being schemed. The Elliots and the Fo
The Billionaire’s Catch Chapter 104: Confidential
Love was in the air as the two love birds couldn't let each other go for a single minute. They sat on the couch as they caressed each other giggling like no one else was in the room. It's like they had spent years without seeing one another but well, what can we say…Love is indeed blind.Kelly however hadn't stopped thinking about what Arthur was talking about earlier. She was really concerned so much yet it wasn't her business and let alone she wasn't in position to get concerned at all.“It's getting late, I should get going,” Kelly said, as she bid farewell.Everyone said bye to her and they continued to talk till very late. “Sam, I think you'll have to sleep in the guest house tonight. You can't leave this late yet there's a lot of room in the house. You'll crash here tonight,” Arthur said to Sam.*“Mother, how are you feeling now?” Clark asked.“I am feeling better now, I want to go home. Call the doctor,” Hannah answered.“Mother, I don't think you're in position to go home no
The Billionaire’s Catch Chapter 103: Emotions
Clark shoke his mother so hard while he cried heavily as he saw her shut her eyes. Hannah then groans a little as she tries to move her hand but the effort is so weak. Clark tried to keep her awake by calling out her name but it was evident that he was so confused and scared. He panicked so much as tried to soothe his mother. The sounds of sirens grew louder as the paramedics approached the Foster residence. They barged into the house and carried Hannah onto a stretcher making their way to the ambulance. Clark followed closely as he held his mother's hand and asked her to hang in there. He got into the ambulance with her and they headed to the hospital. *“Take that corridor and head to the right at the end of it. You'll see cell 249 and that's where you'll see him,” the officer at the front desk said to the two ladies.Khloe rushed through the corridor as Kelly followed right behind her.She got to the end of the corridor and the moment she turned, Arthur's eyes met with hers.She
