The Billionaire's Obsession: Love, Lies, and Desires Chapter 16: Brian's wedding
The sun's rays illuminated the serene beach, warming the picturesque setting of Brian Evans and Amanda Green's wedding. It was the most beautiful beach in the country, precisely what Amanda had envisioned for her special day. Soft music filled the air, creating an ambiance of tranquility as delicate silk drapes adorned the reception tables. However, amidst her own wedding, Amanda felt a lack of power. She couldn't help but feel like an outsider within her own family. With no influence or talent to contribute to her family's standing, her only role was to marry Brian Evans, solidifying an economic partnership between their prominent families.

Vivian's face lit up with joy as she spotted Kristen walking through the gate. They rushed into each other's arms, embracing tightly as if no time had passed. After that, Vivian and Kristen entered their favorite café, going to the counter to place their orders."What can I get for you ladies?" the barista asked with a friendly smile. True to her usual choice, Vivian replied, "I'll have an iced latte with extra milk, please!" Kristen pondered momentarily before deciding, "I'll go with a hot chocolate, thank you." After a short wait, the barista handed them their drinks, and they settled into a quiet

Luna arrived at the café to meet Olivia, her eyes filled with determination and a twisted smile adorning her face. Her thoughts remained incredibly damaging despite undergoing compulsory therapy for her psychological condition. She reached out to Olivia, seeking solace and spewing venomous tales about Vivian. Luna intended to use Olivia as a pawn in her continued quest to harm Vivian."Olivia, you have no idea just how cunning Vivian can be," Luna whispered, her voice brimming with resolve. "She deceives everyone into believing that she has succeeded through her talent. But the truth is, she owes everything to Louis."Olivia listened with a mix of scepticism and intrigue. While she disliked Vivian, she also knew Luna's greedy nature. "Why do you think that?" Olivia asked, cautious of Luna's motivations.Luna relished the opportunity to sow seeds of doubt and satisfy her envy. She continued, her words dripping with disdain, "I used to have a secret relationship with Louis. I have pictu

Weariness and sorrow engulfed her, her hands trembling under unjust accusations.Louis approached her, gently taking hold of her phone and placing it on the table.

When she saw Olivia entering the room, she took a deep breath, preparing for the upcoming conversation."Olivia, thank you for coming," Vivian greeted with a warm smile, but there was an underlying strangeness in her demeanor that differed from their usual interactions.Olivia appeared surprised by Vivian's friendly approach, but she decided to play along. "What do you want to talk about, Vivian?"Vivian's smile remained unchanged as she began the conversation, "I've been reflecting on our recent interactions and everything that's been happening. It's truly heartbreaking to see someone trying to destroy my reputation and my collection."Olivia feigned concern, "I understand, Vivian. It's a difficult situation, but I have nothing to do with it."Vivian looked straight into Olivia's eyes, shaking her head, "I think you must be tired, aren't you?"Olivia hesitated momentarily before responding, "What do you mean?"With a slight smirk, Vivian con

It's so beautiful!" she exclaimed, gently touching the elegant fabric of the light pink dress. Vivian nodded in agreement, saying, "Yes, it's gorgeous. But on what occasion do you want to wear it?"At this point, Kristen chuckled mischievously, "For a date!" Vivian's eyes filled with curiosity. "Who's the lucky guy?" Kristen blushed slightly and winked playfully. "Otis Evans. The guy I met on the flight back home. I had no idea he worked at the same company as me now. He asked me out!" Vivian smirked and playfully patted Kristen's shoulder. "That's destiny for you. Then we must pick the perfect outfit to make him swoon at first sight!"

Louis returned home to a silence that was unsettling. The absence of Vivian's presence turned the once comforting space into a void that echoed with his growing concern. He waited until nightfall, hope dwindling with each passing hour, but there was no sign of her. Desperation clawed at his chest as he dialed her number, only to be met with the cold indifference of a voicemail. Kristen's line was equally unyielding, offering no solace, no clue to Vivian's whereabouts.Panic set in, a relentless tide that washed over him, urging action. He drove to Kristen's house, the urgency of his mission fueling his speed. But the house stood silent, its windows dark, a mute testament to his deepest fears.

Louis shattered the stillness, his whisper slicing through the gloom, "I love you, Viv. Beyond anything else." His tone, a tender stroke, acted as a balm to the storm of sentiments raging within Vivian. Silence was her response, her heartbeat a drumbeat of confusion, as she navigated through her maelstrom of apprehensions and longing. Her memory of their shared past was a blank slate.In a surge of impulsivity, Vivian cast aside the pillow, her action louder than any spoken word. The chasm between them closed as Louis encircled her in his embrace, pulling her to him. Vivian sought refuge in his arms, her head against his chest, attuned to the consistent beat of his heart. Tears cascaded down her cheeks, the reason for her weeping unclear, possibly the purest expression of her soul.Louis's hand gently swept across Vivian's back. "Life without you is unimaginable," he murmured, his breath a warm caress on her nape.Elevating her gaze to his, the anguish in his look, the unfiltered sinc

The kiss persisted, and neither of them appeared to want to break it. However, as the tension grew, Vivian softly pushed Louis away, bit her lip, and murmured, "Just one kiss. That's all there is to it.""Thanks, bae," Louis muttered as he took a step back, his hand caressing his lips. "It's quite tasty."Vivian's cheeks turned pink, and she muttered, "You smudged my lipstick!"Vivian motioned for Louis to stand still after the kiss; her hands intended to continue applying his makeup, but she paused for a second. His fierce and scorching look made her uneasy. "Close your eyes," she said, trying to temper the fire in his gaze, which threatened to distract her.Louis closed his eyes and surrendered to her touch. Vivian worked painstakingly in the silence that followed, her hands steady as she etched the image of a skeleton onto his skin.Vivian took a step back after thirty minutes, when it was completed satisfactorily. "Open your eyes," she said, motioning with her hand. When Louis agr

Vivian's recuperation was visible two days after she was released from the hospital, a gentle return to the world she previously knew. Louis tentatively approached the subject of their living arrangements after finishing the discharge formalities. "Would you mind staying with me? I want us to be close so you can recall our shared memories more quickly," he said, his words tinged with hope. Vivian shook her head, watching the expressions on his face. His brief disappointment tugged at her emotions, and she knew the depth of his adoration was genuine. "I'd rather you stay with me at my place," she finally added, expressing a need for routine and some sort of control in a life that had suddenly been turned upside down. Louis's face lit up, a stark contrast to the stern mask he usually wore. The powerful guy, who was always so composed, reveled in the simple confirmation of a lady he adored. He leaned forward and kissed her on the cheek, a show of love. He contacted his assistant righ

"I will never leave you alone." Louis assured her, the corners of his mouth lifting into a reassuring smile.His assistant made arrangements to move them to the hospital's most luxurious suite—a room that felt almost like home and had space for him to remain by her side.Before granting them privacy, Kristen shared a secret with Louis, her eyes clouded with sadness. "When she was fifteen, a burglar broke into her house on a night she was alone," Kristen confided. "Ever since, Vivian has been terrified of sleeping alone. It took years for her to overcome that fear. Please be patient with her."Louis nodded in understanding. "I will," he promised, a solemn vow made to both Kristen and himself. For the first time, he was privy to the shadows that lingered in Vivian's past.That night, as Vivian lay beside him, her breaths deep and even, her brow would occasionally furrow in her sleep, as if she were fending off nightmares.

The Billionaire's Obsession: Love, Lies, and Desires Chapter 45: "Vivian needs you!"
Kristen burst into the room, her quick steps and tears streaming down her cheeks saying more than the words she could say. As she lay down, her gaze was fixed on Vivian's eyes. Otis also hugged Kristen tightly, as if to tell her not to worry too much because it would harm the baby in her womb. "Are you ok?" Kristen's voice was a trembling whisper, a stark contrast to the strength she usually exuded. Vivian smiled softly, relieved to finally meet the only person she remembered. "No problem, Kristen. I'm perfectly fine!" Vivian's gaze then shifted to Louis, and she made a suggestion. "Could you please step outside, Louis?" "I need to talk to Kristen." She just wanted this conversation to be private so she could confirm a few things. Louis nodded and walked away with Otis, leaving the two women alone with their thoughts. Kristen sat down next to Vivian's bed and gently held her hand. Her eyes welled up with tears as she remembered the moment she learned the bad news. Her heart clench
The Billionaire's Obsession: Love, Lies, and Desires Chapter 44: "Who are you?"
An hour later, Louis was granted the permission to see her. He sat beside her, his gaze settling on the cheeks that once bloomed with health, now pallid and lifeless. Her breathing was faint, almost imperceptible. The bloodshot threads in his eyes stood out starkly.He kept her company through the night, as though his presence could somehow bind her soul to this realm. The night pressed on, and he remained, unable to tear his eyes away for even a second. Fatigue enveloped him, yet he stayed, watching over her. He feared that the moment he succumbed to sleep might be the very moment she slipped through his fingers."Vivian, I love you deeply. I am sorry for everything."What if her memories of them had been irretrievably lost? Would she despise him, pushing him away, denying him the chance to be close to her?Louis's mind was a tempest of confusion, yet his heart clung to hope, ready to do anything for her happiness.The longest night in Louis's life had ebbed away.
