The Billionaire’s Contract Fiancee Chapter 150
Ava walked into the building she lived in with a spring to her step that the workers had not seen in quite a while. To the receptionist by the desk, ever since the lady had arrived from her vacation, she had looked pretty dreary. But now, she looked like a different person. Her lips had a sated satisfied smile on her face and she looked like she could break out dancing any minute. Ava did dance, but only in the privates of her elevator. She felt like some damned superstar and she loved it. Her mind and heart would always replay Sebastian's words in the car when he had dropped her off. "I have eyes only for you Ava," he had said, taking her hand in his. "If I wanted to get back with Natasha, then there would be no need for us to continue our relationship. And while I didn't expect that I would... Feel this way about you, I would never try to hurt you willingly Ava." "Oh my gosh," she squealed, covering her face shyly. Oh she loved him. She did. And she would patiently wait until he

“So what’s this sensation I’m getting from the Legendary playboy, Damian?” Sebastian asked as soon as they sat down after making their way into one of their favorite pubs in the city just across the building from where they worked.“Come on, man.” Damian groaned. “You couldn’t even wait for us to get settled down or to place our orders yet?”“You dragged me out from the mountain of paperwork I have lying on my desk, it’s only proper to barrage you with questions as I deem fit.” “Admit it, Sebastian. You need this drink as much as I do. Don’t act all righteous like you didn’t jump out of a meeting in the middle of yesterday to get into a squabble with Ava at a nightclub.” “You things are different when it comes to Ava.” Sebastian shrugged, signaling the waitress over. “It’s no secret that I’m a different person whenever she’s around me.” Damian drummed his fingers on the table. “I’m guessing you guys made up last night? I lost count of the number of times I called you but you never

“You sound like you wouldn’t mind beating him into a pulp,” Damian laughed. “Possessive much, eh?”“He knows she’s mine. Why the hell would he be hanging out in a club with her?” Sebastian frowned.“If a pretty woman invites me out to get high and probably have sex later, don’t expect me to turn it down, man. Especially if I’ve got eyes on her for a while.” Damian replied. “Sometimes, I wonder if you’re my best friend or biggest opposition.” Sebastian glared dagger at Damian. “It wouldn’t hurt to be on my side just this once.”“I told you before, Sebastian. I always play neutral. Besides, if I don’t tell you the truth, who will?” “It doesn’t have to be that way and you know it.” “You should be concerned about why Natasha is still up in your business till now. If she hasn’t gotten the memo, it’s because you haven’t been serious about it and now, you have Ava going out on club dates in the middle of a working day with a strange man. Everything is going up in smoke if you don’t put yo

“Don’t you think you should confront her to know what she’s keeping from you concerning this Jake guy?” Damian asked as they made their way up the elevator, running his hand through his wavy blond hair. “Do I need to go to such lengths?” Sebastian was feeling irritated already, he hated dealing with emotions of this magnitude. Being apathetic was a lot of chores already. “If I didn’t know any better, I’d say you’re scared of what you might find out if you confront her about, Sebastian.” “Let’s assume you’re right on this, Damian. Don’t you think I need to look forward to what the future holds instead of poking her over things like this? What if she feels hurt or feels unwanted enough to run away for the second time?” Sebastian pointed out.Damian groaned. “Why would she? She’s going to be grateful for your troubles when you finally figure out who this mysterious man is, I’m only trying to look out for you. To make sure you’re not being blindsided here.”“While I understand your con

Sebastian sat in his car as he took a long drag from his cigarette. He hasn’t smoked in a long time now but today was one of those days when he needed to clear his head after what he’d been through. The takeover had proven unsuccessful as he had gotten here in record time to turn everything around and become the chairman, buying out a record 90% shares of the business. He admitted to paying more than what it was worth but he didn’t mind, in a few years, he would’ve made up for the excesses. He sent the whole team home and instructed them to take the next day off, he wouldn’t have done this without them. The digital clock on the dashboard read 9:00 PM. The meeting lasted well over seven hours before a solution was gotten. She would still be expecting him, he had promised to come over just before they would finalize her return to the penthouse. He tossed out the dying embers of his cigarette before he turned on the ignition of the car and made his way down the street, leaving a tra

“Are you going to invite me in at some point or are we going to spend the entire night here?” Sebastian chuckled as Ava still clung to him tightly.“You’re not complaining, are you?” Ava spoke into his chest.“I wouldn’t be on a very good day, but the past eight hours have been hell for me. So unless you want us to end up on the floor at some point, we should head inside.” Ava reluctantly removed her arms around his neck as she led him inside shutting the door behind her.Sebastian looked around the room, it wasn’t much, to begin with, but it seemed comfortable and warm, he could see why she loved this place despite the outward appearance. “Should I get you something to eat?” Ava asked as Sebastian settled down on the couch.“We had Chinese food after the meeting was over, I think it’ll last me throughout the night,” Sebastian assured her. Ava nodded and rubbed her arms, still standing awkwardly next to the door. She knew what was coming next, it was why he had planned to visit in

Ava giggled with delight. This was what she’s always wanted, she was fed up with never really being out there and comfortable in the spotlight with Sebastian. But if he was ready to take this major step, it was going to be a huge leap in their relationship. And it would mean he was ready for the next step as well. She was eager to rekindle what they had going on previously but she wanted a couple of assurances from him.“I have a few things I want to say too,” Ava began, threading her fingers through Sebastian’s.“Sure, you can say whatever you want to,” Sebastian assured her. He sensed her hesitation and worry, she wore it on her like a second skin. He was hoping it wouldn’t be anything too damning to deal with, he had put in a lot of effort to make this work and it would hurt to see it all crash down. “You said you want me back at the penthouse,” Ava began. “Yes,” Sebastian replied, not missing a beat. “Being distant isn’t doing either of us a whole lot of good right now.”“I ag

Ava barely managed to make it through the night by staying awake for most parts of it, her mind was constantly plagued with several questions all centered around Sebastian and what his true intentions were about her. She started by regretting ever making her true intentions clear to him. She should’ve been satisfied with the bumps in their relationship but she wanted to have more but her desire for more had come at what cost?Ava rolled over to the edge of her bed and glanced at the digital clock, it read 04:50 AM. She would have to be up and running in a little over an hour. She didn’t know what to do with herself and her emotions were flying all over the place. In times like these, she wanted Kim here. She was her life support and one of her best friends as well, she would know the right words to say. Her relationship with Sebastian had started in a rather unusual way. At first, she loathed the sight of him and everything he stood for, he was snub and downright self-centered. She

One month laterThe wedding had been a splendid affair and from the start, Ava was practically forbidden from lifting a finger for herself by Kim, Renee, Violet, and the flock of servants at her disposal due to how heavy she had become and she resorted to staying put unless she risked the ire of the women helping her dress up. Sebastian had planned a proposal with the rest of their friends leaving her in the dark. It was unexpected and it felt real and different this time around, they had come through so many difficulties and they both knew it was the right time to make it all real this time around.At the stroke of midnight on her wedding, Ava was standing at the entrance of the hall already adorned with palatial decorations with cascading floral arrangements hanging from every side of the grand room, sparkling white chandeliers hung high above with delicate draperies completing the settings designed to evoke an atmosphere filled with love and warmth. A group of violinists was posit

It’s been two months since Sebastian was released from the hospital and Ava moved into the mansion with him. The penthouse held too many hurtful memories and she wasn’t eager to go back there and be plagued by nightmares during her sleep. Jake’s trial hadn’t taken a lot of time either, there was a ton of insurmountable evidence against him and the jury didn’t take much liking to him either, or the judge. In reality, no one was going to take the side of a journalist with murderous intentions over New York’s most desirable couple. Their return to the spotlight had been a field day in the media world especially as articles and gossip about their breakup had been going on for a while now, their appearance together had all but quietened every rumor going on about them. Ava was becoming used to being pregnant and after a few weeks of tedious work down at the agency, she had gone on maternity leave that would run well into a few months after she gave birth.One of her favorite parts of be

Damian looked back and forth between Ava and Sebastian and it was pretty obvious that they had eyes for just each other right now, everything else faded into the background. He didn’t need any further clue, his time here was up.“I believe it’s best I give you both some space to talk things through.” Damian cleared his throat, gave Sebastian a nod, and patted Ava’s shoulders as he walked past her. “Do you think they’re going to be fine?” Violet asked Damian as soon as he got to the door. Sebastian spared them a glance over his shoulder before returning his gaze to Violet. “I can’t possibly say for sure but if what I noticed between them was true then we’ve got nothing to worry about.As soon as Ava heard the door shut behind her, she walked towards the bed, maintaining a friendly distance as she pulled out a chair and sat on it. Sebastian didn’t know how to start tackling their issues so he decided to make small talk first, it always worked for him and he was hoping that it wouldn

Ava made her way outside the building and towards the parking lot, it was lonely, just how she wanted it to be. She didn’t want any disturbance or interference from anyone. All Ava had wanted was for Sebastian to wake up from his coma. She spent days at his bedside, urging him to come back to her and he eventually did but she ran. There was no telling why she ran and she didn’t even have any logical explanation as to why she did it, the only thing she could say is that she was scared shitless and that was all she could say. She would eventually have to go back and talk to him afterward but she didn’t know if she could bring herself to do it. “Hey, sis.” Ava looked up to see Kim walking towards her flanked on either side by Renee and Violet, they all wore worried expressions on their faces and she could tell from their hesitation that they didn’t know if they should come any closer or maintain a healthy distance. “How did you guys find me?” Ava asked, her eyes were fixed to the g

“I’m only trying to look out for you,” Kim sighed. “I’m tired of seeing you crying after a couple of months where you think you’re in love and your troubles are behind you. It hurts me as much as it hurts you, Ava.” “I know,” Ava smiled sadly. Kim was right, she’d always been eager to jump right back into it without putting provisions in place in case her assumed fairytale moment didn’t come to pass. But things were different this time around, she had been through a lot and as a result, she’d been forced to put herself first for now before anyone else and if anything was going to happen, she would be the last person to instigate anything. She’d done enough and it wasn’t going to work, she wasn’t going to invest her time lifting a finger. She’s done enough already. “Things aren’t going to be the way it once was. I promise you that.”“Tell me you’re sure you know what you’re doing?” Kim nibbled on her lower lip. “I can’t promise you I know what I’m doing, Kim. But my heart is in the

“You really should stop feeling this way and making us feel like we’re strangers as well,” Kim frowned. “We’re here because we love and care about you, that’s the truth. You’re part of our lives so I don’t see how you keep interfering in what you’re a major part of. You’ve got to accept that so you’d stop feeling like you owe us something because you don’t.”Ava sighed. “Okay, you’re right and I’m sorry for feeling this way. It’s unusual to see a lot of people wanting to help me at the same time and that’s why I reacted that way,” “It’s okay, we don’t hold it against you. We know your past and how you’re still getting used to a couple of good gestures. Kim suffers from the same problem as well.” Violet assured her. “So, you mentioned that Sebastian woke up a while ago?” Kim asked, eager to steer the conversation away from their childhood. She wasn’t prepared to visit memories that she had worked so hard to repress. “Yes, he did. He wasn’t a hundred percent conscious and the doctors

Ava walked back into the hospital room as soon as the doctor mentioned it was okay for her to return. She walked back into the room to see Sebastian soundly asleep. “Is everything alright, doctor?” Ava sounded worried. “Did he go to sleep on his own or did he pass out?”“We gave him a sedative to keep him under for a couple of hours until he regains his full strength, he should feel much after he wakes up this time around and that’s what we’re hoping for. When that happens, we can then begin the final stage of his recovery process.” Ava nodded. “Thank you, doctor. We’re so grateful for the help you’ve rendered.”“It’s my pleasure to help. I’ve known Sebastian since we were both boys and my father has been the Bancroft’s family doctor for decades. He’s like family to me as well.” “Do I need to call you guys once he wakes up?” Ava asked, her eyes fixed on Sebastian. “You don’t need to, we’d be counting down the hours ourselves and carrying out checkups before midnight. You’ve got no
The Billionaire’s Contract Fiancee Chapter 242
It’s been a week since the ugly incident and Sebastian hadn’t woken up yet. Ava was struggling to pull it together but she knew she didn’t have any other option, she couldn’t afford to break down right now not when she had to look after herself and the baby as well given the fact that the pregnancy was entering into its crucial phase.The doctor urged her to give him time and be patient till he decided to come around. His vitals were good and his condition was improving, he was going to wake up any moment from now, the doctor would always say giving her a warm smile in return. The conviction in his voice always seemed to calm Ava’s nerves so she waited calmly until Sebastian decided to come around.She was in his hospital room, sitting on a chair next to the hospital bed, her knees were pulled up under her chin with her face buried between a historical romance novel by Nora Roberts. Reading helped her calm down and forget her worries and she’d been doing a lot of it during the past f

“Life isn’t meant to be fair to everyone,” Damian offered Ava a soft smile. “It’s just the way life is and we’ve got to make the best out of what we’re given.”“Sebastian doesn’t deserve this,” Ava grumbled.“No one does but shit happens.” Damian shuffled his feet as he struggled to find a comfortable situation. “Do you think he’s going to come out of this? Be honest with me. I could use that right now if you don’t mind.”“Sebastian’s tough as nails. He’s one of the most stubborn men I’ve ever met and if there’s anyone I know who’s going to come out of this, it’s Sebastian.”“Thank you, Damian.” Ava rubbed her arms, trying to calm her nerves. “You’re welcome. If there’s anything you need, please, do not hesitate to inform me.”“I’m good. Besides, I have a lot of people doting on me already and you have work to do.” “If you say so but I’m still here if you need anything.”“I should’ve done this a long time ago but I want to thank you for talking to Sebastian and managing to convince
