The Billionaire's Heartbeat CHAPTER NINE
AIDEN'S POV"Fine." I grumbled. " I'm doing this for your own good. What if she gets hold of the pictures before you even let her know what was happening? Don't you think if she decides to let it out,you stand a lot to lose?""Audrey is right, Aiden. Besides, it's just an apology. You at least owe her that.""Come on man, not you too. I see you two are ganging up on me." I tried to wriggle out from doing this with the excuse of not knowing where she lives."That won't be a problem because I do." Audrey smiled sweetly at me. "Since you don't have anything you're doing,we could go now."Giving me a look that says "you're not getting out of this." I shot her a murderous glare but still reluctantly followed her to Mia's home.I called her several times but she didn't pick up.Audrey did too,same result. I guess she didn't want to speak with any of us.We got to her door and I could hear some laughter coming from inside. An adult's which certainly must be hers and a little girl's voice.

AIDEN'S POV" You must have a lot of enemies out there. But I wouldn't be surprised if it was because of your pride and arrogance."I was so infuriated by her choice of words. " Watch the way you speak to me, Miss Anderson. I won't tolerate any disrespect from you." " Just in case you have forgotten, I no longer work for you. I can talk to you whichever way I like. The world doesn't revolve around you." She hissed back at me. "That's enough." Audrey scolded." Can we put our heads together and accomplish something without you two fighting every minute? ""Mia, you said a strange woman has been calling you? And she claims to be one of my brother's victims?" Audrey asked after we both kept quiet at her command.I took my eyes of both of them and looked at the little girl sleeping beside Mia. Audrey was right. The little girl is cute. I wonder what her name is? Mia caught me looking at the girl and glared at me. I smirked at her in response which made her roll her eyes at me.And she

MIA'S POVI couldn't help but wonder what would have become of me if I had not ended up with Mr Black. I replayed everything they told me and in my head as the naked picture of myself and Mr Black flashed through my mind again.Should I be grateful to him for being there and sleeping with me? The more I think about this, the angrier I become. That cheating swine who took my money in disguise to give me a modelling job, would have actually sold me to an unknown country as a sex toy.I became extremely curious as to who the strange lady that has been calling non stop with the claim of being Mr Black's victim just like me.Suddenly, the urge to meet her took over me as I wanted to know who she is. I made up my mind right there that I will meet up with her when she next calls. That night, I decided to let my aunt know what was happening. I told her that I was planning on meeting the lady. "Aunt, I want to meet up with her. I need to know what her intentions are.""I'm not going to sto

MIA'S POV" He said he has a plan? Did he tell you what it was about? "Not at all. But I'm guessing that they want to discuss it in person. Please Mia, I need you to be extremely careful out there and with this lady in question. You are already involved in this too."I saw the genuine love and care that was in her eye while she spoke to me. I knew right there that I could count on her."I will…Thank you so much." Her pleas for me to return back to work kept ringing in my ear when I got home.I'm at the point of confusion right now. I don't know what to do about this whole issue. I decided to let my Aunt in on what's going on."Aunt, please there's something that is bothering me and I need your advice on what to do.""What is it dear?" She asked. " My boss and his sister want me to resume back to work . ""So, what do you wanna do about it? Are you ready to face him without getting affected again?""Honestly, I don't know. The pay is good, yes but his temper can be overwhelming. H

MIA'S POV"Really?" he said while cocking his head to the side."Yes… " I replied again.I saw him furrow his eyebrow while staring at me. "I don't understand what is going on with you two." I heard Audrey sigh then she turned to me. " Aren't you here because you have officially resumed back Mia?""Not exactly. I was here today because Mr Black said he had something very important to discuss with me.""And we have discussed that. Now that we are done with that, it is more reasonable for you to return back to your office before I give it away to someone else."Was he being serious right now? The more I think about it,the more I feel he actually lured me here.. "Do not threaten me Mr Black. Because, I'm not at all moved by this anymore." I stood up to go get the file,making sure to scrape the chair on the floor. I got to my office and it felt so good to be back. I searched for the file but I couldn't find it. I went back to his office and as soon as I entered, I saw the file with him

MIA'S POV"Hello...Who is this?".... I was trembling with fear. I kept yelling at the empty phone. "Hello! Hello! Who is this?" I rushed out of the house in fear. I literally entered into the company shaken. I was looking all white and cold like someone died.I ran straight to Mr Black's and barged in without knocking. I doubled over trying to catch my breath with both hands on my knees. I lifted my head and saw Audrey was also in the office with him. They both stood up at the same time immediately I barged in. "Is everything okay, Miss Anderson?" I heard Mr Black ask with concern. I was literally in tears already before I could speak."No,nothing is okay. Everything is falling apart." I heaved."Please calm down and talk to me. What happened? What has got you all worked up?" He asked again nervously. "What happened, Mia?" Audrey asked.She was also nervous. "They…they are going to kill the only family I have left." I hiccupped. "Who are they and who is killing who? Please, calm

MIA'S POVI woke up this morning with serious fatigue and a very persistent urge to vomit. I almost vomited out all of my intestines. I was weak and tired but I needed to be at the office early this morning. Mr Black will be meeting with some important clients today. I managed to get myself to work despite my weakness. I got to work a little earlier than usual. I prepared everything he will be needing with this meeting today. I must have fallen asleep on my desk because I didn't hear Mr Aiden when he came into my office. "You didn't get enough rest last night? " I jolted awake on hearing his voice. "Not at all sir. Do you ……." I didn't get to complete my sentence as I sneezed out uncontrollably. "Is everything alright with you ?" "Yeah, I am fine sir.""You don't seem good to me. You know what, you can just stay behind, I will attend this meeting with Audrey.""Are you sure you don't need me there sir?"Why was he acting caring all of a sudden? This was not the Mr Black I knew

MIA'S POVI opened my eyes and realized I was in a hospital. I groaned out in my pain. I held my head while trying to sit up. I noticed I wasn't alone in the room. I saw Mr Black sitting not too far from me. His legs were stretched out while resting his back on the chair he was sitting on with his eyes closed. I noticed I was in a private ward. I heard the door and the Doctor walked in. It was the same Doctor who had confirmed I was pregnant.I felt a sense of panic rising inside me. He was going to find out. "You are finally awake. How are you feeling?" He said. Mr Black eyes flew open. " I'm fine. Just feeling a little bit weak " "It is expected because of your condition.""What condition? Doctor , what is wrong with her?" I heard Mr Black ask. " She's pregnant. And according to the test carried out, she hasn't really been taking care of herself. She needs a lot of rest and vitamins. She's at the delicate stage of her pregnancy."I gulped. I didn't want him to find out about

AIDEN'S POVI anxiously waited in front of Mia's room with Jordan. I could feel Jordan staring at me with pity but my mind was everywhere. I couldn't focus on anything.My phone rang out and I dug it out of my pocket. It was Audrey. I swiped the screen and picked it up." Hello Aiden. Jordan texted me . How's Mia doing? " " I…..I…d…don't k…know. " I croaked out." Just calm down, Aiden. She'll be fine. She's a fighter and has always been a fighter. Nothing will happen to both of them."" I hope so this time. I don't know what I'll do if something were to happen to our baby again. "" Just be positive bro. I'll be with you in a jiffy. Be strong for us. " With that she ended the call." We can't keep standing here, Aiden." Jordan said, " Let's just wait at the reception."I nodded my head in response because I was too weak to argue with him. I wanted to stay there but I have to stay strong for Mia.We walked back to the reception and I sat with my head bowed down. I couldn't help but f

AIDEN'S POVThese past few days have been hell for me since Mia got kidnapped. What a horrible way for someone who just got married to spend her honeymoon. I have exhausted all of my contacts including Jordan's just to get my wife and unborn child back home safe and sound. It has been days with sleepless nights without food. Everywhere in the house has been silent like we were mourning. Which is my greatest fear. I have promised to pay anyone who could provide us with the exact location of where she was taken too.Of course, we have been receiving calls based on that and each time the troops go there, it would turn out to be a force call. So far, there hasn't been anything positive from anywhere. And as for Nadia, we are yet to get any information on her whereabouts. It feels like they all vanished into the thin air. Right now, I'm seated with Audrey, Jordan and Mr. Q. They all had one or two pieces of information they got about Mia and Nadia. " I got a call from someone this mor

PATRICIA'S POVI sat on the couch in my living room watching a soap opera when my phone rang out. I checked the caller and rolled my eyes. I picked up the call and waited a bit for the person on the other end to talk. " Hello ma'am, I have something that might interest you. " The voice said. " It better be news that is worthy of my time. " I said, " There is going to be a wedding tomorrow."" Who cares? " I snapped at her. " Is this why you called me this early? Seriously, I don't know why I'm still putting up with you."" N..No..No ma'am! " she stammered. Even if she was older than I am, she knew better than to get on my wrong side. She knew what I was capable of. Besides, I'm paying her. " Why are you calling me then? " I asked impatiently. " You don't quite understand what I meant. I was trying to inform you that my boss and a'am Mia are getting married tomorrow. "" What? " I almost choked on my saliva. "You mean to tell me that Aiden and Mia are getting married tomorrow a

MIA'S POVI woke up in a very dark room with just a little window to let the air into the room. I was sitting on a chair and my hands were tied behind my back but my legs were free. There was also a table in front of me. I groaned softly and tried to adjust myself properly on the chair.I was in pain and my body aches badly. My first thought went to my unborn child. I widened my eyes in panic as I checked myself properly to see if nothing was wrong with my baby. I breathed a sigh of relief when no sign on my body showed that I was in a bad condition. I raised my head up and stared at the ceiling as I had a flashback on how I got here in the first place.Everything was going fine and I couldn't have been happier than I was. My wedding gown was the most beautiful that I have ever seen in the world. Finally, the church wedding ceremony was over and there was this joy in my heart that I just wasn't able to explain when we left for the reception venue. As much as I wanted to still be in

AIDEN'S POV. " Where is Mrs Black? " Jordan asked me, calling Mia by her new last name.Hmm… Mrs Black.. I like the sound of that. " She went in to change some minutes ago with her Aunt. " I replied and then scrunched up my nose when I remembered she should have been away for sometime." That's odd. " " What is odd? " Audrey asked me," They should be out now. " I answered, checking the time on my wristwatch. " Oh God, please…. Let it not be what I'm thinking. " Audrey muttered under her breath but I heard her clearly." What is wrong? " I asked her. I was confused and at the same time, a little bit scared.She and Jordan made their way to the room set aside for Mia without saying another word to me. I followed behind them. The door was locked and then, the scene of what could have gone wrong hit me with full force. ' Mia!!! ' I screamed in my head.Without thinking twice, Jordan kicked the door down. And there was Mia's aunt and one of Mia's bodyguards knocked out with a toxic ch

AUDREY'S POVEverywhere was bubbling with the wedding arrangements of Mia. Finally, we had decided to let the whole household know about Aiden and Mia's secret wedding just. But none was told about the venue until today. Seeing my brother finally getting married to one of the most wonderful women I have ever met in my life is one of the best thing I could ask for in life. I couldn't have asked for a better wife and sister-in-law for Aiden and me. "My goodness, ma'am Audrey, I can't believe sir Aiden's wedding to ma'am Mia is today. Oh! How happy your parents will be wherever they are. " Chef Timothy said." I know, Chef. I wish they were here with us today. " I said, smiling and thinking about them. " Yes, ma'am. I wish so too but I know they are smiling down on us today. " " I believe they are. Are you all set for the church service? ""Yes. I was wondering if we should leave some people behind to watch over the household. " Chef Timothy said, I shook my head. " Not today. Ever

JACKSON'S POVPatricia barged into my office looking so frustrated and ready to kill anyone who got in her way at that very moment." What is the matter? " I asked " Goddamnit!!!. Will this problem ever end? It has been one trouble to the other. " She said , slumping down on the couch in my office. " I thought we had everything well planned out. I was so, Jackson. We were so close and everything turned upside down. "I furrowed my brows in confusion. " You are still not making any sense. " I said, sitting beside her. " Did our boys succeed in snatching away the DNA test result from them? "" Yes, they did." "So, if that is the case, why are you looking so worked up? "" That is the problem, Jackson. Even with that, the plan backfired. "" What do you mean it backfired? "" Damn Aiden!!!. He was more prepared than we were. Just what in the world are we going to do to finally get this guy down? And that stupid specialist you brought sold us out. "" He did what? " I asked in shock "

AIDEN'S POV" Please, sir, don't do that to me," The man pleaded and pointed at Patricia accusingly. " She made me do it. " We all turned to look at Patricia which made her look down in fear — and shame." You did what? " I growled. I was furious. But what is the point of me getting furious over this? When I knew the kind of human being she is. " How dare you!! You ungrateful son of a bitch." Patricia shouted and glared at her doctor. " How dare you tell such lies in my presence? "" No! Young man, she did not. You did it yourself. " My doctor said to Patricia's doctor. " I'm telling the truth here," He replied on the verge of tears. " You tell them, ma'am. " He told Patricia who was glaring at him. " She may have suggested it to you but in your consciousness, you carried out the plan because of your greed and quest for money. You sold out your identity. " I said, " Please sir. I'm sorry for what I did. Help me put up some words to the doctor to pardon me just this once. It won'

AIDEN'S POVIt was already past the time and hour that my doctor was to be here. I was worried and hoping that nothing had gone wrong. Patricia on the other hand has become impatient and wouldn't let me be. I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw Mia coming cover to us. She was the strength I needed right now from Patricia's constant nagging. Mia sat down beside me and I could feel Patricia getting agitated with her presence. " Aiden, I don't know why your doctor isn't here yet. My doctor has lots of things to attend to today. We have been here for over an hour. I think we better proceed with mine instead. " Patricia said, " They might just be running late. Or had a car flat tire or something. I'm sure they will be here in no time. "" I hope this delay from them is not because they are compromising the result of the test? " She asked, She was fucking testing my patience. " Are you by any chance saying that this was all planned? " " I wouldn't know. You said it yourself. If this
