The Billionaire's Dilemma Chapter 49
“Welcome Damien, Aella, it's so nice to see you again” Damien's mother greeted her as she hugged Aella.Maggie was amazed at the interior decor of Damien's mother's house. “You must be Maggie, Aella's mother, right,” Elena, Damien's mother called out, pulling Maggie from her haze of admiration.“Yes… I'm Maggie, Aella's mother”, Maggie answered while stretching her hands over to Elena.“Silly, we don't do hand shakes over here,” Elena said as she pulled Maggie in for a hug.Maggie was taken aback by Elena's show of affection as she relaxed in the hug.“I told you Maggie was likable”, Damien whispered to Aella.“Come on in” Elena said, ushering them inside the house. They all got settled in the living room as Damien opened a bottle of wine, serving Aella and Maggie.“Mmmmm, Damien, you managed to learn what I love so much” Maggie moaned as she savored the aroma of the wine.Aella frowned at this statement as she picked up her glass of wine and decided to walk around the house admiring

“Thank you so much, Elena; the meal was wonderful." Maggie complimented her as she stretched on the chair.“I will do the dishes." Aella and Damien chorused, and Elena smiled.“You two can go do the dishes; Maggie and I have a lot to catch up on, right?” Elena asked Maggie.“Of course,” Maggie replied.“Let us move to the sitting room then, so they can clean up properly,” Elena offered while standing on the dining seat. Maggie followed behind her as she grabbed the unopened bottle of wine on the table with a glass.”I think your mom has a knack for wine; ever since she started staying with us, my bar has been almost empty,” Damien whispered closely to Aella.“I thought I was the only one that noticed it; you tend to indulge her in a lot of it, though,” Aella added as she carried a tray to the kitchen with Damien following her empty-handed.“What are you trying to say, Aella?” Damien questioned.“Why do you think that I'm trying to say something, Damien? You read the meaning of everyth

Aella and Damien joined Elena and Maggie in the living room as they watched a reality show together while chatting. Along the line, Aella dozed off and Damien carried her to the room. Elena was also tired and wished Maggie a good night's sleep.Maggie decided to stay in the living room until she finished her bottle of wine.Damien placed Aella on the bed as he covered her properly, reminiscing the moment they spent together at the Kitchen as he stroked Aella's hair. He decided to shower before going to sleep but after he was done he heard sounds coming from the living room and he decided to go check it out. Getting to the living room, Damien saw Maggie, she passed out on the couch holding her wine glass, the empty bottle of wine was lying on the floor and the television was still on.Damien shook his head as he switched off the television, before tapping Maggie gently, but she didn't respond, he removed the glass from her hands.“Maggie'' Damien called out a little bit loud and Maggi

After breakfast was done, Aella decided to sleep in, as she was always feeling tired, so she made a mental note to drop by the hospital to get herself checked. Just as she was about to go to sleep, her phone rang, and she answered the call. “Hello Collins,” Aella greeted over the phone.“Hey, sister I just wanted to check on you. How was dinner? Did it go smoothly?” Collins asked.“Yes, we decided to sleep over, and we will be going back today. It was beautiful that you were here, and Elena longs to see you,” Aella answered.“I’m glad it went smoothly; I should give you time to rest, then talk to you some other time,” Collins said.“Alright then, my regards to Lawson; please make out some time so we can see,” Aella responded as she ended the call.Aella groaned at the intensity of the headache as she opened the bed drawers, hoping to see some Advil. Luckily, she found a bottle, and after popping two pills in her mouth as she was about to drop the pills, her sight landed on an album

Aella's eyes stirred open as she heard Damien's loud voice.“Pregnant, I am not pregnant,” Aella muttered as she tried to sit up.“Your husband said you complained of constant tiredness and weakness of the body; it is a common sign in pregnant women, but we cannot be too sure. I will write out some prescriptions and take your samples to the lab,” the doctor explained.Using a syringe, the doctor withdrew some blood from Aella's hand, and Damien just watched. The doctor scribbled on a note and handed it over to Damien.“Get her these drugs; at a pharmacy, they will help with the pain she is feeling until the test results are out,” the doctor stated as he closed his briefcase.“Thank you, doctor,” Damien said as he accepted the note. He walked the doctor to the door.“There was no need to call the doctor,” Aella stated as she stood up, walking towards the room.“I was worried; you slept all through the drive back home, and Mom told me you had a headache earlier; why did you not tell me,

“Good afternoon, Jeremy,” Aella greeted.“How are you doing, Aella?” Jeremy asked again.“I'm alright, Jeremy. I received your package; thank you so much,” Aella said politely.“I also received your message, and I got the hint. I hope you enjoy the meal, Aella; it's just a box of your favorite food,” Jeremy stated.“Oh, Jeremy You shouldn't have bothered; thank you so much,” Aella said again.Damien glared at Aella; he knew who she was talking to and couldn't stand it. He carried the flies, pretending to be on another call, and he walked out of the office.Aella sighed, forgetting that she was on the phone.“What's the matter, Aella?” Jeremy questioned her as he heard her sigh.“ohh… It's nothing, Jeremy. But I would appreciate it if you didn't send me any more gifts; my husband is quite uncomfortable with it.” Aella confessed. She felt like she could trust Jeremy, as he was her childhood friend."Ohhh,” Jeremy said, "Aella, we have been friends since childhood, and we have been away

Damien contemplated heading to the hospital to see Aella or going back home; it was already late, so he decided to go home instead.He got home, and to his greatest surprise, the living room was empty. He walked into the bedroom expecting to see Aella, but it was also empty. Damien frowned as he brought out his phone to call Aella, but it was not connecting.He walked out of the room, closing the door behind him as he marched into the living room.“Damien, When did you come in?” Maggie asked as she walked into the living room, surprised to see Damien standing fully clad in his suit.“Yes, I just got back,” Damien replied as he dialed Aella's number again.“And where is Aella? Why is she not with you?” Maggie asked, furrowing her brows as she looked in the direction of their bedroom.“I don't know; she left the office early, saying she was going to visit her grandmother. I thought she would be home by now,” Damien answered as he groaned in frustration as he sat on the couch.“But it is

Damien got up immediately, carrying his car keys. He left the house. Maggie tried to stop him, but he just pushed her away.Maggie frowned as she marched into Aella's bedroom, hitting the door furiously. “Go away, mother!” Aella yelled from inside the room.“Open this door this instant and tell me where exactly you are coming from,” Maggie demanded.Aella paid no attention to her; she covered herself under the duvet, blocking the noise with headphones, and soon she fell asleep.Maggie stood by the door for a while, and when she saw that Aella was not responding, she stomped off to her room. She sat down on her bed, but she was restless. She needed to take advantage of this opportunity, but she had no plans yet.Maggie pranced around the room for a while, thinking of something mischievous to do, when a bright idea popped into her mind. She smiled as she walked out of her room to the kitchen.The plan was to cook for Damien and take it to his office so that she could get the opportunit

The Billionaire's Dilemma Chapter 144
Aella was swept off her feet more than she could have imagined, but not by someone she had thought. She decided she was not going to think about Damien or anything that has to do with him, or literally anything that is tied to his being.She didn't want to think about it. as much as she knew this was the happiest she had ever been since they got married.The least she could do for herself now was to stop ruminating about the past, not when she was starting to come back to being herself. This was the gift to herself, and this was more like the best gift ever. She will stop thinking about him and focus more on understanding herself; she was planning to get a divorce sooner than later. She wanted to be totally free so she could start living again.She's sat in the car; it's a new hair and a her new self. As they rode across the city, she looked back at Blythe, who seemed to be very happy and seemed to be thinking of something that made him smile every second. She looked away from his fac

Just the right amount of sauce to make him look like God's sent. She stared at Blythe, who just unconsciously did the cutest things. There were times he talked to himself, there were times he just glared out the window, or there were times where he just picked up the salon magazine and read it, and his expressions whenever he came across something controversial made him the perfect partner to give your work the gist.Blythe had taken the initiative to get Aella a snack after every hour at the salon he got her milkshakes and takeouts.“Here's some for you!” Blythe voiced handing over the takeout box to her.By this time she had just started to make her hair; she had first gotten into washing it and then styling it.“Thank you!” She smiled, and he walked back to his seat.“That's an intentional mannn!" The hairstylist teased her as Blythe fully walked away.Aella didn't know what to think, nor did she know what to say to the hairstylist.“He's just my friend!” Aella responded with a smi

He paced back and forth as he struggled to keep to himself for the past three weeks—nothing from her—nothing to keep his feelings in check, not even her green light.It was every risky to go visit her in her workplace, as he appeared to be a potential threat to Damien, especially when Damien was the reason for this whole mess in the first place.He picked up his phone for the billionth time trying to place a call to her and explained things well enough to her. But he couldn't; he couldn't bring himself to explain the truth of the whole matter to her; that would not only end him; it would also end their whole family name and career. The way they had left things off, they knew Marie would probably see him as a bad person or worse, a monster that didn't deserve to live.Seth had always wished he wasn't born into the family he was born into, and quite true, he didn't like it there, but ever since he met Marie, he had wished more for that prayer to come to pass than ever before.He felt c

"Well, I must say you look absolutely beautiful." Blythe complimented Aella as he opened the car door for her.Aella had never had alone time with Blythe before; spending the whole day with him felt so illegal, but she knew she had to leave her room at least once so she wouldn't rot away in misery.She had thought about it all so much that she didn't want to think about it anymore; she just wanted to start living life again.The life she had thought she could live with Damien, but it turns out that she couldn't.It's funny how the same life she craved for was the same life God had helped her package with her mom; she could live freely and not depend on anyone.For the first time, she smiled, and that smile was genuine.“And I must say you don't look bad yourself!”. Aella responded with a soft voice.Seeing her smile is his delight, and he wanted more of it to happen. He kicked the car to a start, and they started their little journey.Aella wasn't used to engaging in conversations wit
The Billionaire's Dilemma Chapter 140
Yes, maybe there were people out there who hurt you real bad, but you need to understand that they shouldn't make you stop loving; you just choose to love yourself enough to love them and not overlove them, so you know when to leave or when to live by grace, just like you would give yourself a voice when necessary.Aella had left Vollini and Becca in the living room to discuss while she just went to her roomma. DN just wallowed.She cuddled up in her bed and just stared out the window. She watched as the snow fell lightly; she could think of nothing else than just...Her baby…Damien was no longer on her mind; she couldn't really care less; he had done what he had to do, and he had done his worst already.If he cheated, it really wasn't any of her business; the only thing she blamed herself for was staying that long trying to take her power back.She sighed again, giving the fact that she had so many things planned out for herself and her baby.She looked down at her phone and realize

Chapter 139“Just when you thought you had it all, there another shows up to be the worst."Collins paced back and forth in the living room of Becca's house as he wanted to tell Becca about how unruly Damien had been to his sister. Aella wasn't in the midst of all these; they had allowed her to be alone for a while in her room, which they made sure to check on her on a few occasions.“Does he ever think at all, like why is he being the animal that he delivered me from, why is he being like that forsaken dude called Seth?" Collins raged again.Truthfully, he hadn't known his sister's case until they got home from the hospital, and immediately he heard it took the strength in Becca to keep him grounded and not go to confront Damien.Collins had just arrived at the right time.Becca was instantly notified of how inseparable Collins and Aella are; she saw how much love they both have for each other, and she is more than willing to love them both.But she wondered who this sort of guy Coll

Not all that glittered seems to be gold... But for Damien, his vomit seems to glitter like gold and looks like the most beautiful diamonds from the outside.As he dropped Aella in the hospital, he turned back and went back to work. He didn't bother to ask what happened to her or what might happen to her; he asked then if she was going to be fine, and they said definitely the rest if it was none of his business, but unfortunately enough, they told him as much as he didn't want to hear about everything the doctor called him as he got to the office.The doctor's call came through as he was about to enter his office. On getting into the office, he noticed that Amelia was no longer in the office, including her bag and all. He answered the call and settled down.Luckily, the doctor happened to be his friend!!!“Hey Corniel!” He voiced over the phone, rearranging his fiel and just getting ready to head home.“You seemed to be in a hurry; was there something that came up?” Corniel asked as t
