The Billionaire's Last Chance Chapter 73: Storm
Emma’s povI looked at myself in the mirror and I sighed.This heavy feeling on my chest has been here the whole day.I looked at the time and realized that I still had about three hours before I will be meeting up with Matt.I got into my car and drove straight to the orphanage.I sighed when I looked at the place I grew up in.This place was once my home, it’s the only place I can think of going when I feel like this.My shoulders feel heavy, it feels like I am carrying the weight of the world.“Look at you,” Mother Grace said the moment I stepped out of the car.She engulfed me in a hug and I smiled as we walked inside hand in hand.“How are you doing? And where is Lily? The last time I saw her she was crawling,” she said and I smiled.Of course she knows Lily, Mother Grace is like a mother to me.“She is fine, I am currently staying in the city,” I said and then looked down.“Who are staying with in the city?” she asked me and I just chuckled a little.“It’s him isnt it? How could

Emma’s povFlashback“Come on, you will see that everyone will love you,” Conan said and I sighed and nodded.“You look breathtaking fiance,” he whispered into my ear.I smiled and looked at myself in the mirror.I looked elegant, I didn’t realize that I could look like this.I could look like those rich people we only see in TVs and magazines.“Thank you, and you look really handsome fiance,” I said as I fixed his bow tie.He kissed my forehead and then held out his hand and we walked downstairs.I was at his family home, his family decided to throw a party to celebrate our engagement.They wanted to be able to control the narrative since Conan is planning on marrying some orphan with no status in their community.And I agreed to this because I didn’t want it to affect Conan’s business.All eyes were on us as we were walking downstairs.“You will be just okay, they will see what I see in you. And they don’t then who gives a shit what those people think?” he asked me and I chuckled at

Conan’s povI looked at the time and Emma still wasn’t back home.What is wrong with her?The last couple of days she has been acting all weird and distant.I took out my phone and called Jamal who answered right away.“I was about to call you sir, there is a huge problem here,” he said and I frowned at this.He gave me the address and I knew where they were so I drove there right away.When I got to the old man’s food truck, I found Emma sitting there drinking.“There he is, ladies and gentleman that’s my handsome husband,” she said pointing at me.I looked at her confused, Emma doesn’t drink at all.She says that she hates the way alcohol makes her feel.That she hates feeling dizzy and that it makes her feel unsafe.Then why is she drinking now?“I am so sorry for this old man,” I said to the old man who owns the food truck.“You should give me your number, this isnt the first time that she has come here,” he said and I frowned.“When did she come here?” I asked him and he looked a

Conan’s pov“Are you okay? You just did something really big and you don’t seem really happy about it,” I said to Emma.She looked at me and just shrugged but something is seriously wrong with her.“What is happening Emma?” I asked her and she just sighed.“Nothing is going on, why are you reading so much into this?” she asked me and I frowned.“Because you are not like this, you have been distant,” I said and she sighed.“Nothing is wrong,” she snapped and I looked at her.Emma has always been good at hiding her emotions.She believes that when someone is angry the best way is to talk things through.She hardly snaps or gets angry so easily.“Listen, I guess I miss my daughter. And the last few days have been hard for me,” she said gently and then looked at me.“And you always asking if I am okay isnt helping,” she added and then walked off.She got Matt’s shares and managed to completely humiliate him.She managed to do something that wouldn’t have been easy to do.Matt is now stru

Emma’s pov“I will be right back, get a drink and I will be back in a minute,” Conan said, and I nodded. He walked away but then turned back and kissed me on the cheek.“Did I tell you that you look breath taking?” he asked me, and I smiled.“Yes, this would be the fourth time,” I said, and he smiled at this.“Well, you look breath taking,” he added and then smiled again before walking away.I looked around the room trying to see if there is anyone I can socialize with.In Conan’s friends circle I hardly get along with anyone.I could see his sister, but she doesn’t like me at all and all I got from her was a frown.It’s been a year since Conan and I got married and we dated for a year, but she still hates me.Her entire family hasn’t accepted me at all.But my husband loves me more than anything and I am grateful.I watched as Jenna walked towards me.She has made it clear from day one that she was interested in my husband.“Look what we have here. Little Miss Orphan,” she said and

Emma’s povI looked around and realized how this all looks.I looked at a naked Matt who was getting his ass kicked and I wondered what happened. What the hell happened here? What is all of this?He left, he left, and I am sure of it. I said goodbye and closed the door, then what the hell happened after?I quickly got off the bed and ran to Conan.If I don’t stop him then he will kill Matt, “could you stop it,” I yelled.He stopped and looked at me, Matt started gathering his clothes and getting dressed.I watched as Conan took off his coat and then put it on my shoulder.He had tears in his eyes and wouldn’t even look me in the eyes.“It’s not what it looks like,” I said, and he scoffed a little at this.“So, you were just playing hide and seek in our bed? Is that why there are two used condoms on the ground?” he asked me.His eyes then landed on Matt and he went after him again.“In my house, how dare you do this in my house and my bed? And that too with my wife?” he asked beatin

Emma’s povI got out of the room and drove straight to the pharmacy.I grabbed a couple of pregnancy tests and that too different brands just to be sure.When I got home, I found myself looking at them over and over again.That incident with Matt, it’s been a few weeks since it happened.Will Conan think that maybe the child I am carrying is Matt’s child?I am willing to do a DNA test if necessary to put all of this behind us.We have waited for so long to have a child of our own.And now that it might be happening I can’t help but feel scared.My phone started ringing as I was looking at the unopened boxes and it was Maddie.I picked up the phone and she asked to meet me.Honestly, I would rather procrastinate for as long as it takes.I quickly took my bag and then drove to the place we were meeting.“Are you okay?” she asked me, and I shook my head.“How can I be okay? Conan can’t even look me in the eye,” I said and sighed.“I am miserable Maddie,” I said and watched as she wiped t

Conan’s pov“What the hell do you think you are doing?” Maddie asked coming into my office.“Just so you know, being married to your friend doesn’t mean we are friends,” I informed her, and she scoffed.“Of course, it doesn’t mean that. And I would never want to befriend someone like you,” she said.“She called me, she called me and told me everything. Your wife tells you that she is pregnant, and you give her some report that says that you can’t have kids,” she said.“I don’t owe you an explanation, and I am surprised that Emma told you all of this,” I said.Emma has always been someone who doesn’t like telling people about her private life.Hell, you wouldn’t know about her finances or anything like that.But then again, she and Maddie have always been like sisters.And this isn’t a small issue, I am sure that she just wanted to have someone to talk to.“Listen, this matter is between me and my wife,” I said, and she chuckled bitterly at this.“Your wife? Did you just say wife?You h

Emma's pov "Are you sure that you can do it alone?" Conan asked me. "Yes, plus you shouldn't blow your cover," I answered, and he looked at me. "Are you sure that you are okay? Are we okay?" He asked me, and I smiled and nodded. I kissed his cheeks and got into my car and drove to the restaurant to have some breakfast with Kyle. "What is wrong?" Kyle asked me, and I looked at him confused. "You seem different today. Something isn't right with you. You don't look okay," he explained, and I frowned. "I am fine," I said, and he nodded but didn't seem to believe me. I was about to take a sip of my juice when I suddenly heard a commotion. "Yes, I will marry you," I heard a girl scream. I turned around and found a man on his knees with a ring. The joy in the woman's eyes was evident as she was looking at him. The love in her eyes as she was looking at him. Why is my stomach in knots? I got up and looked at Kyle, who seemed really confused by my behavior. "Let's get the hell o

Emma’s pov“I should have gone with you,” Conan said and I smiled at this.“There is no need, I got what I wanted and I am safe,” I said and he frowned at this.“You did well, but I do have to warn you,” he said and I looked at him confused.“This will piss off my mother even more, I told them that I am trying to get back those shares from you,” he explained and I just shrugged at this.“Your mother never liked me, and I am done trying to get to like me. So it’s okay,” I said and he smiled at this.“Kyle told me about the meeting you had with Anne, why didn’t you tell me about it?” Conan asked me.I just shrugged like it wasn’t a big deal but it was a big deal.She gave me information that I think in the long run will play a major role in getting to the truth.I don’t want to tell Conan now because I don’t want to complicate things further.For now, we are going to take things one step at a time.It is not the right time to reveal this.“She was asking for money, apparently Matt threw

Emma’s pov“You have been staring at the calendar all day, what is wrong?” Kyle asked me and I shook my head.“Nothing,” I answered, and he looked at me as if he could tell that I was lying.“Okay then, what did Anne say?” he asked, and I just shrugged.“Nothing that I already didn’t know,” I said, and he looked at me with a frown.“You still don’t trust me?” he asked me, and I shrugged.“That she knows that I didn’t sleep with Matt, that nothing happened that night,” I said, and he looked at me.“But that video, it showed him dragging you upstairs,” Kyle said, and I nodded.“I know what it looks like, but even in a drugged state I fought him. Do you think I would have mistaken him for Conan?” I asked him and he looked at me.“And I know myself, I know my own body,” I said, and he sighed.“Are you sure?” he asked me, and I nodded.“I am sure, I am a 100% sure that nothing happened between me and Matt that night,” I said, and he nodded.“Then I believe you, if that is the case does thi

Emma’s pov“That is a great idea, we should get started right away,” Kyle said, and I nodded.“How about we go out for lunch? You know, to show off our relationship,” Kyle said with a wink.“How can I say no to that? Plus, I want to take that car for a spin,” I said, and Kyle chuckled at this.“Did you see the look on Matt’s face when we showed up with the car at that restaurant?” he asked me, and I nodded.I might not know Matt much, hell I kept my distance from him.He was my husband’s best man on our wedding but was never my friend.I avoided even being in the same room as him and made it a point that he knew that I was uncomfortable around him.As we were walking out, I stopped when my eyes landed on Anne, and she didn’t look good.“Could you go and have lunch alone? I will have to talk to her,” I said to Kyle who looked at Anne and then me.“Are you sure?” he asked me, and I nodded.He sighed and then kissed my forehead like some loving boyfriend.“I will bring you the food,” he

Matt’s pov“Well then, shall we go and see what we will be selling this Friday?” the guy asked before I could hand him the money.“I would like to see it, I need to know that I am not being played for a fool,” I said, and he nodded.“We are using my car,” I said, and he nodded and then entered the address.We went to an abandoned factory and then he entered a code and then we went in.We walked in and I looked around and could not help but smile.Paintings, clay pots and anything valuable you can think of was in here.Hell, they even had cars around the place and great spots cars.As we were going further, I saw the car that I wanted, and this was the newest model.“You like it?” the guy Brody asked me, and I nodded.He then smiled as he opened something and then handed me the keys.“We are now business partners. It’s all yours,” he said, and I smiled as I looked at the car.I got in and it worked perfectly, and I couldn’t wait to show them.“We always have cars like this if you get t
