The Billionaire's Heiress Returns 125!
AURORAIt felt like the world around me was crumbling. I raced towards the outside of the hospital with everyone running after me.I got to the car we brought Michael to the hospital with. The glass behind was broken but I didn't mind. I needed to be out of here immediately.“I will drive,” Martin said as my hands couldn't get the car running. Carina walked towards the driver seat and took me out to the back seat.“You don't know what happened, he might be okay,” she said to me but her voice came out in an echo.I brought my phone out, trying to figure out if there was any news. It felt from my hands. I bent down to pick it up, bringing my head up I saw Madeline and Martin join their hands together. A drop of tears came down my face.I could hear the sirens of the fire trucks as we got closer to the house.“Oh my goodness!” I heard Carina's voice as we got down the car.“Do you think anyone survived?” I heard someone say as I passed by. My eyes were cloudy and my head was spinning.

JACOBMy eyes landed on Aurora as I opened it up. Her smile took over her face with a hint of relief.I looked around the room to see a lot of other relief faces including my two sisters. I could also hear baby sounds so that means I'm not going crazy.“What happened?” I asked, trying to sit up but Aurora stopped me.“You need to be on the bed,” she voiced out loudly, letting it sink.“Let me listen,” I heard Sophie as she sat on the other side of the bed with her and placed her stethoscope on my chest.“He is doing fine for some who just survived an explosion,” she said. But her voice came out in anger.“I'm sorry, Sophie,” I held her hands as she tried to get up. “I wanted to tell you so many times but things were moving very fast.”“I had the right to know immediately,” she said and I nodded.“Yes, you did. I'm sorry for not telling you,” she bent over and kissed my forehead.“I'm just glad you are okay,” she said breathing heavily. “We were all worried.”I looked at Aurora who was

AURORA“Are you sure this is a good idea?” Carina asked me as we got into the car.“I can't think of anything else, Carina. This is one shot, one opportunity kind of thing,” I said to her and she sighed.“A lot of things could go wrong. There is still no news on your sister, Aubrey,” she said and I cast a look at her.“Martin will find her,” I said. “He has too. Or all of these would have been for nothing.”The car started driving and I noticed something, “who are you?” I asked the person in the passenger seat. That is usually where Martin sits.“I'm Clay, ma'am,” he said. “I will be replacing Mr. Martin till we get someone permanent for his position,” he said and I got uncomfortable.I know I told Martin to look for Aubrey which includes resigning as my head of security but I would have loved to meet this Clay first before now.“Wait, like Clay Benson, CFO of A2M Security?” Carina asked and he nodded.“Yes ma'am,” he said and I rolled my eyes. “Do the bosses in your company have a h

JACOB“She looks so beautiful,” I said out loud as I watched Aurora doing her press conference.“Hmm,” Braden cleared his throat. I had forgotten he is right here in the office with me.I looked at him using my side eye and he laughed, “what? You are falling in love all over again?” He asked.I leaned backwards on my chair and sighed. “Let's call me a new man,” I said and he laughed even more.“I'm happy for you, man, really. I'm glad you are back to your senses,” he said and I glared at him.“That's not funny, Braden,” I said with a straight face.“You are right it isn't but I'm still glad,” we continued to watch Aurora and every second my heart was skipping. She was putting herself in danger by taking this contract and also annoying it on TV.“I should have tried harder for her to let go of this idea,” I said, looking at Braden.“From what I know Aurora to me, no matter how hard you tried she was still going to do it her way.”“I know but that doesn't mean that I like it. She is put

AURORAI heard the door open but I didn't hear it close. What could possibly be taking Jacob this long or who.“What are you doing here?” I heard him ask as I walked towards the entrance door. Looking at his back I could tell he was pissed. His whole body looks tense and stiff.“Aurora invited me,” I heard Daniel's smug voice. I rolled my eyes and got closer to them.“That's impossible,” I took Jacob's hands and joined mine and faced Daniel.“You are a bit late,” I said to Daniel, ignoring the look Jacob was giving to me.“I had to make sure I wasn't being followed,” he said. I looked at him with a straight face, still holding Jacob's hands in a way he could see.“And were you?” I asked him.“No,” he sighed and placed his hands in his pocket, “I wouldn't risk that,” Jacob snorted and cursed under his breath.“Well, come on in,” I said. He was about to enter when Jacob stopped him.“We need to search you for a listening device,” he said and I sighed.“Is that really necessary?” Daniel

AURORA“The results of the test will be forwarded to you within the hour,” Doctor Ruth said to me. “Thank you, Doctor. I look forward to receiving it,” I said as myself and Martin walked out of the room. Doctor Ruth is one of the doctors in my new hospital and she is also Mary's personal Doctor, which means I can trust her a little for her to give me the exact results of the DNA test.“Satisfied?” Martin asked me as he rolled down his sleeve. Madeline walked towards us and smacked him.“She has every right to ask for this,” she said to him and he pouted humbly.“Wow,” I said, smiling at both of them. “I know just the person to call if you ever try to bully me,” I said and we all laughed.“Jacob didn't come with you?” She asked.I shook my head, “he had something to take care of,” I said to her.“I thought he will be all over you every time, this time around,” she said and I felt flattered.“I would love that but not really,” I shook my shoulders as we walked out of the hospital.“Yo

AURORAI looked at Katherine as she tries hard for me not to see her cry but it looks like her Mom’s death is the only soft spot she has.“When did she pass away?” I asked, trying to sound sympathetic.“You don’t have to sound sympathetic. I don’t need your pity,” she said and I scoffed.“Of course you don’t, but I wasn’t sympathetic towards you but your Mom,” I stated flatly. “You didn’t answer my question, when did your Mom pass away?”She looked up and stared at me for a while, “a year before you came into Jacob’s life,” her voice sounded so arrogant. “How is he by the way?” she asked, trying to taunt me. “oh that’s right even after putting me away, you two still couldn’t get together,” I smiled at her words and flipped my hair backwards.“Were you ever asked to take over your Mom’s position?” I asked, looking straight in her eyes in order to know if she would tell the truth.“Yes, they did and I started to feel the effect like my Mom did and I wanted out,” she uttered plainly. “T

AURORA“If this is a joke, you better put an end to it now!” I yelled at Spencer, bringing a lot of bystanders' attention unto us.“They need to talk to you,” he said, sounding like an annoying brat.“I will talk to them when I'm ready and you need to do the brotherly thing and dismiss this idea from their minds,” I said to him and got into my car.I started the car's ignition and he was still sitting on top of it. “Get off my car, Spencer!” I yelled. He jerked up and I drove out of the premises of the prison.“Ahhh!” I hit my hands hard on the steering wheels. What gives those imposter a right to meddle in my life.I haven't gone to see them since I got back from the CEO retreat. In fact I have missed three of our weekly Sunday dinners since then. I didn't know what to do when I went there. There will be an urge to ask a lot of questions and now is not the time.“What are you doing?” I asked as I noticed a car behind me flashing its light in a reoccurring manner.Suddenly it maneuver

AURORAI have been in a moving vehicle for the better part of ten hours. Wherever my captors are taking me, they don't seem to have an idea what they are doing.This can't be LeVert, he won't make such a mistake by hiring amateurs, even if he is doing it by himself. He has enough experience to do it right.Suddenly the vehicle stopped moving, the back of the vehicle opened and I was brought out. One of them was about to speak when the other one shut him up without speaking.I kept my mouth shut, I need to be brave, for myself and for my family. My wedding is in a few hours along with Carina's and there is no way I'm missing it.They tied the blindfold around my eyes even tighter, causing the darkness to engulf me.The rough fabric of the blindfold pressed harder against my eyes, sending a jolt of sharp pain across my temples. Darkness was absolute now, not just the absence of sight but the weight of uncertainty pressing down on me. I tried to focus on my breathing, forcing myself to s

JACOB“I can't believe you are getting married!” Braden slammed into me. Trying to ruffle me up a little.“Says the married man,” Andre said to him. It's funny how we are all friends now and we have Aurora to thank for that. She brought all of us together. That's my future wife.“What are you smiling about?” Grey asked me.“You better not be thinking about my sister in some certain way in front of me,” Martin said and we all laughed.I have asked all of them to be mine and Andre best men including Michael, Ryan and Clay. Liam insisted on being the DJ for the service. Right now we are having our bachelor party and having loads of fun. “Thank you for allowing Aurora to do this with Carina,” I said to Andre holding his shoulder.“Are you kidding, Carina will have my head if I don't agree, plus we get to give the world the wedding of the year,” he said and I smiled.“Good man,” I shook his hands and walked towards Grey. “Hey bro,” he turned around and placed his phone in his pocket.“Th

AURORAONE YEAR LATER“What about this?” I walked out of my closet in a black gown filled with diamonds and a white off shoulder handle.“Perfect,” Carina squeaked. I rolled my eyes and walked deeper into the room.“People see me on this, they might think tonight is my rehearsal dinner,” I said to the soon to be bride.“Oh come on, you are the chief bridesmaid, you are meant to dress as elegant as the bride,” Aubrey said, adding her own wisdom to the situation.“Well, apart from that, I will think you guys are just playing dress up with me for me to impress Jacob,” I said to them and they both laughed.“Why are you laughing?” I asked them.“Nothing, just remembering how you blunted out I love you to him,” Carina said, still laughing. I rolled my eyes, trying to hide my blushing face.“Aubrey smirked, “Oh Aurora, you were so abstract about it. It feels like you have been bottling that emotion.”“Maybe I was. I guess my body moved before my mind,” I said to her.“And your timing couldn'

AURORA“Okay, alright. Be safe,” I said and hanged up the call.“Is everything alright?” Carina asked me. I looked at her with my puffy eyes. I can't believe I asked her to move her wedding date all because of LeVert. I feel so sad and heartbroken.“No, don't do that,” she said, hugging me. “Everything will work out. We just need to protect Anna and Mary and we all will be safe.”“But your wedding…”“Can wait,” Andre said, standing beside her. “We all need to be together right now.” He took my hands and I nodded.“Okay,” I exhaled, wiping my face with my other hand. “Let's do this then.”“The girls are pulling up,” Aubrey said to me. We raced towards the car to stop the paparazzi from taking pictures of them.“How come there are so many paparazzi?” Madeline asked as we moved through the crowd.“LeVert probably called them here to witness whatever he had planned,” I said to her.We finally got to the car and help Linda protect the girls from the cameras.“Aunt Aurora,” Anna and Mary hu

JACOB“What does Christina has to do with any of these?” I asked her.“I'm sure you heard from your stepbrother, Grey?” She asked.“Lara, what are you doing?” Aurora asked her. “Grey is not to be trusted.”“I was the one who told Grey to meet with you,” she said looking at me. “He is trying to make amends. You should let him.” I looked at Aurora, who just shrugged her shoulders.“So what about Christina?” Amy asked, standing in front of her. “You can't just drop a bombshell like that and not say anything to it.”“I was getting to it,” she handed her USB drive to Liam, “here, input it to the system,” Liam looks at me hesitant to do it. “Do it Liam,” I nodded.”A lot of files displayed on the bug screen. “These are all of the operations I could find that can be linked to LeVert, including serial killing of high profile women.” “Which one involves my step mom?” I asked, and a more detailed document displayed on the screen.“Wait,” Aurora scoffed. “You have this much evidence and LeVert

JACOBI kept pacing around, it's been almost two hours since Aurora left and she isn't back yet.“Martin is with her,” Madeline said to me, “he won't let anything happen to her.”“But if he can't,” I said and she looked confused. “Whatever is going on is beyond his power,” she sighed and shook her head.“Hey, you have to think good thoughts bro,” Amy said, holding my shoulder. “Aurora didn't come this far to give up or jeopardize everything.”“She is right, J,” Braden whispered, standing beside me. “You have to be able to trust Aurora, trust that she knows what she is doing,” he said and scoffed, “because she has been doing this long before she returned back to her life.”“I just want to protect her, want to keep her safe,” I said to him.“I know bro, but she got this and you know it.”I took a deep breath, forcing myself to calm down, even though every fiber of my being screamed to go after her. Braden was right, though. Aurora had proven time and again that she could handle herself.

AURORA“Thought I would recognize you?” I asked her.“Hoped,” she said, jerking her hands from Martin who was still looking shocked.“What the hell are you doing here?” I asked her with gritted teeth.“I don't know, hiding from my brother,” she said and I scoffed.“You are not that bumped into me,” I said to her. “You were at the precinct.”“No, you only saw me at the precinct when I came out, not before,” she said and I looked at Martin.“I will prove it to you,” she said and I turned to her.“How?” I asked, folding my hands. She tried to move but Martin stopped her. “Let her go, Martin. She knows she needs us,” Captain Marlow scoffed and walked deeper into the room.“Here,” she placed a material over her head and I could see the face of the woman we saw in the CCTV camera video.“Unbelievable,” I whispered. “Have you seen something like this before?” I asked Martin.“Heard of it but haven't seen one this real,” he said as Captain Marlow took it off.“Spent almost all the money I co

AURORA“You know he is just scared for you,” Martin turned around in the car and said to me.“If you are referring to Jacob then don't. I don't need a lecture right now,” I said and he sighed.“He just wants to protect,” I glared at him and he raised his hands in defense. “That's all I'm going to say,” he turned around facing the traffic.“I have been on my own for a while, I can handle myself,” I said out loud.“I thought you guys have moved past that?” Martin asked me.“Move past what?” I asked, feeling confused.“Move past what he did almost ten years ago?” He asked and I sighed.“We have but he has to know that I didn't have him or you protecting me then and I was still able to survive Copper and being kidnapped,” I said to him.“I get that but he is here now and from the look of things he wants to protect you at all cost.”“Why do you think I brought Michael with us?” I asked and Micheal smiled. “At least Michael can report to him if anything happens.”“We are here, Miss Aurora,”

AURORA“Hey,” I kissed Jacob on the lips as I took off my jacket.“I miss you,” he said, kissing my neck. I bit my lips smiling.“I know but we have work to do,” I pushed him slightly and walked over to the workstation he had set up in his penthouse.“Are you sure this place is secure?” Martin asked him as he walked in.“Yes, nobody knows about this place, not even Christina,” he said and I sighed.“Does Grey know about this place?” I asked him, for a while he has been having a blind spot when it comes to his step brother.“Jacob?” I called his name when I noticed he was hesitant to answer the question.“Yes he does,” he said and I dropped my hands loudly against my laps.“Why would you do such a thing? Grey is not to be trusted,” I said to him.“Look, Grey might have done a lot of things in the past but he helped us back in my airport.”“Or he brought you there to set you up along with Martin,” Braden said.“I agree with Braden,” Amy said and Jacob glared at her.“Don't do that, they
