The Billionaire's Heartache Chapter Nine
Ethan froze on the spot as he saw Samantha walking away from him, just as she did years ago. He wanted to say something, perhaps tell her to stay, but he was short of words. He watched as her hair bounced behind her, each step quick and purposeful as she headed toward the exit of the café.As far as Ethan remembered, he loved her hair. He loved it when she let it down and wouldn’t hesitate to run his fingers through it.But her hair was no longer straight. It was now wavy and a different color, unlike the golden brown he was used to.But that didn’t mean he wouldn’t recognize her with a different hair color.Ethan snapped out of his thoughts when she was nowhere in sight anymore. He was torn between running after her, but he knew that she would have escaped with the fast pace she took out of the café.Ethan picked up his phone on the table and plopped down on the chair he was previously seated on, aggressively scrolling through his contact list.Seeing the number he was looking for, E

As Ethan caught sight of Samantha across the bustling café, his heart skipped a beat. Her hair, once a familiar golden brown, now cascaded in soft waves of chestnut. The warm afternoon sunlight filtered through the café windows, casting a gentle glow around her as she moved gracefully through the tables.She wore a simple, yet elegant dress that hugged her figure, accentuating every curve. Her eyes, a deep shade of hazel, betrayed a hint of nervousness as she navigated through the crowd, her steps quick and purposeful.Ethan, usually composed and confident, felt a knot of anticipation and apprehension in his chest. He watched intently as Samantha approached a man in a dark blue suit, Moore James, exchanging pleasantries with a polite smile that didn't quite reach her eyes.Moore stood tall and composed, his suit immaculate against the rustic backdrop of the café. He greeted Samantha warmly, extending a hand in welcome. Their conversation, though brief, carried an undertone of professi

“Peter, he’s here.”“Who? And why do you sound nervous? Everything okay?”“No.” She sniffled, “….I just saw him…he attacked me.”“Who? Ethan?”“Yes.” She wiped tears off the corner of her eyes with her finger.“F u ck!!! Where are you? He laid his hands on you?”“Went to meet a Client at the Jasmine Cafe so I bumped into him. He still recognizes me. He told me to watch my back and that he would be coming back for me. I’m scared, Peter. I don’t want him to come close to me and Princess.”“Please calm down. There’s no way he’s going to come close to you again. Even if it’s going to cost me my life.“He’s a bastard and I will make sure to protect you and Princess at no cost.”“Are you still at the cafe?”“Yes. But in the car, about to take my leave.”“You’re heading back to work?”“No. After what happened, I don’t know if I feel safe to be outside or even in my own home. But I’ll probably head to Princess’s school to pick her up and then we will go home.”“I’m sorry you had to see him af
The Billionaire's Heartache Chapter Twelve
Ethan froze where he stood. His heart was heavy and suddenly filled with disappointment and hate. He was so jealous, seeing her talking and making conversations with the man at the cafe but the thought of Samantha having an affair with another man to the point of making a child, made jealousy run down to his bones.All Ethan could see was red. He hated the fact that his eyes were getting watery.“You bi tch!!!!!!” He yelled, slamming the glass cup he was holding against the wall with the drink in it spilling on the floor and the couch, and soon enough, the pathway was filled with broken glasses.All that Ethan could see was red. He wasn’t an emotional person nor was he someone to show his weakness.He had no idea why he was feeling terribly hurt. It was as though his heart were shattering into pieces with the information that he heard. He felt deep pains that he had never felt before and before he knew it, he was struggling to fight his tears.He plopped down on the couch beside him,

Princess nodded. “It’s very pretty. My teacher said I did an excellent job.”“No doubt you did. My baby is very smart and I love her so much.” She kissed Princess on her forehead, making the little girl giggle.“What’s the picture about?”“A family tree.”“Daddy, Mommy, Princess, and baby brother.”The smile on Samantha’s face slowly faded.“But it’s just me and you, remember?”“I know.” She mumbled.“Then how did Daddy and Baby brother get into the picture?”She shrugged.Samantha sighed. In as much as her daughter was really smart and the fact that she wouldn’t hesitate to give her anything she would ever ask for, She wished her little daughter had it all. A happy family with a very loving father in the picture.Even though her elder brother, Peter, tries to play that role perfectly whenever he is around, She knew it wouldn’t suffice for having a real loving and caring father who was actively involved in one’s life.“I know you told me Daddy is dead.”Sam’s heart almost flew out of
The Billionaire's Heartache Chapter Fourteen
"Samantha's eyes widened in disbelief as memories of Ethan's touch flooded back. The dim light of the room cast shadows on her face, emphasizing the lines of worry etched around her eyes. She hesitated, her voice trembling as she spoke.'I… I don’t know… I was really nervous,' she stammered, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment.'Your cheeks are turning crimson,' Ethan observed with a playful grin, his eyes twinkling mischievously.'Lara, please…' Samantha pleaded, her fingers nervously twisting the hem of her shirt.'Oh, sis. I’m not trying to make you uncomfortable.' Lara's voice was gentle, yet probing. 'I just want to confront the reality of this situation. If you admitted you still have feelings for him, I’m sure he’d react harshly, and it would be hard for you to bear.''I’m not trying to startle you.' Samantha took a deep breath, her eyes darting around the room as if searching for escape. 'I just want to face the truth.''I don’t care about him. I swear, I want him out of my

Samantha mentally facepalmed as Kathie chided her over the phone.“What date?”“Girl, what shall it profit you if you keep treating that poor guy like trash?”“I told you today was his birthday and you are still going to disappoint him?“I promised today, but you didn’t leave him your address. He said he’s been trying to reach you, but he can’t get through. Did you block him?”“Look Kathie, I’m really sorry to disappoint him. I thought my gestures made it clear I’m not interested.”“Babe, he’s not asking you to marry him. He just wants to hang out with you.”“Wait, is this about Princess? You said her nanny had the day off. I can come over to look after her so you can go on your date.”“No. That won’t be necessary.”“I’ll reach out to him myself.”“You should go and have fun.”“We shall see,” Samantha ended the call with Kathie.“So sorry about that. Kathie is just a pain.” Samantha sighed to her sister, Lara.“So, you have a date?”“Please don’t start, Sis. I’m already tense enough.”

Ethan had no idea where he was heading to as he made his way into the elevator but he knew he needed to get out of his room.It felt weird going places without his guards which made him do most things in this trip himself but he instructed them to stay back at home and take care of certain things for himWalking out of the building, Ethan’s eyes met with the restaurant/bar that was beside the hotel building.Based on what he heard, the hotel he was lodged in and this restaurant were owned by the same person and only the elites could afford to be there. Sensing that the bar wouldn’t be a bad place to relax and catch his breath and if possible find a lady to have fun with, Ethan found himself walking in the direction of the bar.To get to the bar, one had to go through the restaurant. Ethan was on his way when he suddenly stopped in his tracks at the sight of HER.No, she wasn’t alone and this time around she was with a different man, not the one he saw with her earlier at the cafe.His

His eyes darted at Samantha and he saw that she had cleared her plate. She was sipping her drink from the glass cup and she looked extremely calm, as though nothing strange happened“Can I have my phone back?” She said, placing her glass cup which still had some drink in it back on the tray.“Why was Kelvin calling you?”“Why are you asking me? How did you expect me to know? You were the one who answered the call.”“When will you stop being brutal to me?” He said, looking deep into her eyes.“When you leave me the hell alone.”“That is not possible! You should start getting used to me.”“Stay the hell away from Kelvin Block him and never speak to him.”“He is my colleague.”“Avoid him!”“I will speak to someone. If it is possible to employ more people so you will not have to work closely with him.”“That will be a waste of time and effort because I can still see him and f uck him if I want to. Your opinion does not matter in my life. I am not a child and I know what I want.”Ethan sig

“I swear if I find out that you have been maltreating her, you are going to pay dearly for it. I won’t care if I love you so much; you are going to pay dearly for it because nobody messes with my blood,” Ethan said to her at the top of his voice, meaning every word that came out of his mouth.“Wait! Do not tell me that she is with that gold digger?” Ethan did not have to mention his name before Mary knew that she was referring to Ashton.“God, help me not to murder that man!” he mumbled, running his fingers harshly through his hair.“Australian laws are really strict. You are not popular here, and trust me when I say there is no way you are going to escape punishment no matter who you are! If you lay a finger on Ashton, then be ready to face the law by killing an innocent person.”“She is not with Ashton? Then who is she with?” he glared at her.“It is none of your business!”“Of course, it is my damn business. I am her biological father!”Victoria shook her head. “There is more to be

Blake had always been a breast man. He loved his women curvy, and Samantha had always had that curvy body, but seeing her after five years, he couldn't help but think she was now insanely sexier. He knew the birth of their daughter had really done good to her.“Do you only think about sex?” she spat at him as his eyes lingered on her chest.“I’m hardly sane whenever I’m around you.”“Please stop it! I’m sure you say that to every woman you come across.”“You know how much I hate it when people take me for granted. I don’t struggle to get what I want, but you have made me totally insane just because I want us to get back together.”“I will endure if this is what it takes to have you again.”“Stay away from Ashton and every other man. If you don’t, I give you my word that I am going to ruin them.”“And before you start denying it again, I’m sure you don’t want me to remind you of how well I know your body.”“God, I missed you so much!” Blake buried his nose in her neck once more, inhalin

"Okay, if it will make you feel better, I forgive you from the bottom of my heart. I promise, I am no longer mad at you, you can choose to still own the shares, I don’t mind anymore. As long as you do not intend to do anything evil. I forgive you and that means you are free to go back to America. Princess and I would be just fine.”“What do you take me for, Vee? I may not know a lot of things about being a father yet but do you see me as someone who will be so cruel and incapable of protecting his daughter? Why do you hate me so much that you do not want to give me any chance to make things right?”“Look, Ethan. I do not mean to offend you but I am just doing what any mother would do in my situation. Call me whatever you feel like, feel free to be mad at me but I am brutal when it comes to my daughter’s safety.”“Then I think I would have to go the brutal way too!” He challenged.Samantha frowned, folding her arms, “What do you mean?”“The plan was to come, and apologize to you, thoug

She stopped what she was doing and turned around to face him. “That was nothing. I was just carried away. I feel absolutely nothing for you. Let that sink into your head and get the f*k out of my house.”“I think we have gone past the stage where we both have to be in denial.”“You may say otherwise but your eyes do not lie.”“What now? You can read my mind by looking into my eyes? What are you again? A soothsayer?”“Don’t do this, Samantha. We are not going to get anywhere by going back and forth!” He said with a pleading voice, trying to direct his eyes to her face and not her naked body. He could not believe this was what he had been missing all this while. Her body has changed so much and he loved it. She now had well-defined curves in the right places which appealed to him the more. The thought of her belonging to another man or another man touching her was sending so much jealousy to his heart already.”“We made love and it was good. I saw the way your body reacted to my touch a

The people she trusts most in her life.Deciding she was going to make this weekend worthwhile, Samantha made her way to the bar area, and reached for her favorite bottle of wine and a glass cup.With the items in her hand, she proceeded to her bedroom and went directly to her adjoined bathroom.She positioned the bottle of wine and glass cup by the counter, and prepared a bath which took a few minutes because she wanted the right temperature.

“You all need to stop taking my love life seriously. Kelvin and I ended it and please do not ask me why. Or wait, I will just give you a brief summary so you do not think I am being too irrational.”“There is this girl. I think a receptionist on the ground floor. Holy sh*t, I can’t believe I am already into office gossip.” She massaged her temple, making Lara chuckle.“I don’t even know her or her name. I just discovered her today. Apparently, she is into Kelvin. She heard about our date last night and came to warn me to stay away from him.”“Unfortunately, she met me sitting on Kelvin’s lap so….”“Holy sh*t, that must be so bloody!”“You cannot imagine!”“I am so sorry about that. And what did Kelvin say?”“He was really pissed! I told him the whole thing is over and I want nothing to do with him.”“And before you start supporting him, you know how triggered I am by office drama? I really want nothing to do with him anymore and I made that clear already.”“That is so sad. I was serio

“So what is the way forward now?”“Wait, you said you saw the little girl? Did you approach her or something?”“No, I did not. I could not move my body or breathe well when I saw her. I can’t explain the feeling that came over me. I suddenly felt weak and numb.”“I am glad you are feeling all the emotions that you hardly feel. Hopefully, it is going to bring you back to your senses.”“Your action sucked, you f***d up! What is going to be the way forward?” Greg asked again.“I do not know!” He answered, filling up his glass cup with some more wine.“I know that tone in your voice but I want to believe that I am mistaken.”“You are going to work things out, right?”“I do not know, Greg. You should know me by now. I am really f***ed up. I try to mend situations but I end up ruining them.”“Ethan!!”“What?” He groaned.“You do not want to apologize. That is why you are coming up with these silly excuses.”“Stop making up stories, Greg.”“I am not making up stories. I know you and I know w
