The Billionaire's Proposal Chapter 29
"Doctor, is the result out already?" I asked, the moment the doctor walked into my room with an envelope in his hands."Oh, yes. It is." The doctor responded."But you said it wouldn't be ready until after a few days. How is it out already?" I inquired."Well, because of who you are, there was no reason to delay it any further. We got to work immediately and here it is." The doctor explained."Because of who I am? So, that means, if it was someone else, they would have to wait for a couple of days?" I asked."Most definitely." He replied."But that's not fair, I protested before my mum shut me up."Will you be quiet! You're complaining because your result is ready already. Don't you want to know what exactly is wrong with you?" She said as she hissed silently.Not that I didn't want to know what the result of the brain examination was, I really wanted to know but I was too scared to know what was in that envelope."What if it is something bad? What if I'm already going crazy truly? Wh

"What about them? Did something go wrong?" Damn! I won't forgive myself if something goes wrong, I should be by their side not idling away here." Sorin said, as he hurriedly got up, ready to leave the room, but Kelvin immediately stopped him."Please, calm down, sir. It's not something bad. I was told that they are now out of Coma. "Are you serious about what you're saying?" Sorin asked, with joy in his heart."Yes, sir. But sir, that is not the only news I have." Kelvin explained."What else do you have? Tell me. I'm in such a good mood already." Sorin asked, joyfully.Kelvin thought for a while before responding. He knew Sorin would not be too happy to hear what he had to say, but he was going to say it anyway.He paused for a moment, while Sorin looked at him, anticipating the news."So, I was also told that Mrs Andrea will be discharged tonight." Kelvin spoke in a rush before Sorin could stop him.Sorin stared angrily at him before speaking,"Have you lost your mind now?" "What

"Hi, ma'am. It's time to go. Are you ready?" Kelvin asked me as he walked close to my bed but I was too stunned to speak.Seeing that I didn't respond, he had to ask me again."Ma'am, Are you alright?"Mum came to the rescue and yelled my name and this brought me back to the present."Drea! Why are you so lost in thoughts? Don't you want to go home anymore?" She asked."Home?" I asked, and sighed. "There's no home." I said under my breath and it was inaudible, so she could not hear it but Kelvin heard it."What did you just say?" She asked me."Nothing." I replied. "I'm ready to go." I added, and I got up from bed.Mother looked at Father, who shrugged in confusion and they watched as I sluggishly walked to get my box."Don't worry, ma'am. I'll get that for you." Kelvin immediately said and picked up the box. He then walked to the door, opened it and led the way out of the room while my parents and I followed closely behind him."Ehmmm…Kelvin, how is Sorin doing now?" Mother asked, wh

"I'm sorry, ma'am." Sonia pleaded, holding her cheek that had been slapped."You're sorry? Are you fucking kidding me? You were supposed to ensure that nothing went wrong! I literally put you in charge, but what did you do? You ruined everything." Daisy yelled."I take responsibility, I'll get to the bottom of this." Daisy said."No way! I won't have that. I'll get to the bottom of all this by myself." Daisy said.Hearing this, Sonia immediately looked at her. She knew trouble was brewing and whoever was found responsible might not live to tell the tale."Please, ma'am." Sonia pleaded once again, but Daisy wasn't having it. She was furious and ready to get to the end of the matter, whatever it was going to take."Now, let's start from the top. Call out all the chefs, right now!" Daisy ordered, and Sonia ran off to call them.As Sonia stepped into the kitchen, all the chefs shook in fear. They had been eavesdropping all along and they knew that disaster was brewing. They began to panic

"I don't understand." The young chef answered."What do you mean by that? What do you mean, you don't understand?" Daisy asked her."She's not here. I'm confused." She replied."Are you kidding me? So all you said was just a lie? You made the story all up?" Daisy asked her. She was now getting furious."No, ma'am. I didn't make it up. It's the truth. I swear." The young chef said, with her voice now shaky."Oh! So you're trying to take me for a fool? How are we sure that you are not the culprit and you are just trying to make a fool out of us?" Daisy asked, while staring her dead in the eyes."Never!" She yelled. I would never do such a thing. I would never take you for a fool. Not in this lifetime and definitely not in another." She assured Daisy, who just scoffed and looked away.She was getting so scared because she wasn't sure of what Daisy's next line of action was going to be. She was sure of what she saw and what she heard, but the one whom she saw was nowhere to be found."The

We arrived back at the mansion after a few hours' drive, and as the gates opened, I sighed."Back to the invisible life!" I muttered, under my breath.I guess Kelvin heard me because he peeked at me through the front mirror.He parked the car in the garage and got out of it. I, on the other hand, was wowed by the number of cars there. Seeing the way I was looking around in amazement like a lost puppy, one would have thought that I was a stranger in the house.I had been living in the house for just a few months but I had never stepped out. Not because I wasn't allowed to go out, but because I had nowhere to go. Even if I was allowed to go out, where was I going to go in the area? Nowhere. So, I never thought about leaving the house.I still sat in the car, admiring all the other cars like I was lost in paradise when I heard a slight knock on the window.The knock drew my attention to him and it was at that moment that I realized that I ought to have alighted from the car."We are here

"I should speak to Kelvin about it. Maybe he can tell Sorin on my behalf. Who knows if he'll grant my request." I thought to myself, as I stared at the remaining food on the table, which would be thrown out the moment I got up from the table.I ate the rest of my food in silence as I schemed and planned for my next line of action.I was still in my thoughts when Kelvin walked in. He wore a black suit as usual and a black shirt underneath. The sound of his heels alerted me and I looked at him and he approached me."Just the person I need to see!" I thought to myself."Ma'am, I'm going to be on my way back to the hospital now." He said, as he got to me."Oh, okay. I almost forgot." I responded."But errrrrr…. I need to talk to you about something." I said, and he raised an eyebrow."What is that?" He asked me but I immediately changed my mind."You know what? Never mind, it can wait. I'll just tell you some other time." I immediately said, but he smiled."What if it's too late by then?

"Are you just going to keep staring at us?" Mrs Zaveri asked, concerned about her son, Sorin."Son, why are you looking at us that way?" Mr Zaveri asked."Yes, son. And you look so stressed too. What is the matter?" Mrs Zaveri added."I almost lost you both, mum. You don't expect me to act like nothing happened." Sorin said, with pain in his voice."Hmmmmmm…. But here we are now. We are not dead." His father said, but Sorin was quiet.He took a moment to take everything that had happened in, before proceeding to talk again."How are you doing now? Do you still feel pain? Do you feel any pain at all?" Sorin kept asking, impatiently."Sorin. Calm down, we're getting better. Isn't that right, darling?""Yes, that's right. Isn't it obvious? At least, I feel better than a couple of days ago." Mrs Zaveri said, as she smiled weakly."Please let me know if there's any problem, so I can tell the doctors to do something about it immediately.""No problem, son. The doctor says we only need to st

“Anne?” I managed to mutter as soon as I found my voice.“Is… is this really you?” I stuttered, not sure if I was seeing the right person.Actually only Anne could have recognized me with all my disguise as she was one of the very few people who called me “Drea”.“Yes, it's me. Oh my goodness, I can't believe this.” She responded happily, her eyes welling up with tears.Before I could even say anything, she rushed towards me, and we collapsed into a tearful hug, the emotions of our reunion overwhelming us both.“I'm so speechless right now. I don't even know what to say. I don’t know how to react. I came here to get something for the house.” I said, pulling down my hoodie.“Me too…” Anne replied, wiping her tears. “I needed to get some things urgently, that was why I came here. I never would have imagined that I would meet you here.”Apparently, she had also come to get new glassware products for her kitchen to replace the ones that broke the previous night. The song I was humming was

"A plan?” Kelvin asked, surprised.“Yes. I'll go incognito,” I said, a sly grin spreading across my face. “No one will even recognize me.”“Are you sure that will work?” He questioned, with an unsure look on his face.“Of course. Just make sure you don't follow me around so that it won't raise suspicions.” I said again. “You should dress the part too. If anyone identifies you, they'll surely know that something is fishy.”He sighed again. “No problem. I understand, ma'am.”“Thank you, Kelvin. I'll be down shortly.” I said and rushed upstairs to get prepared to leave for the hospital.I hurriedly took my bath and quickly got dressed, throwing on a pair of jean trousers, sneakers, and a black hooded sweatshirt. The large hoodie was the perfect addition to my disguise, and I deliberately chose it to help me blend in with the crowd and keep a low profile.We left the house and finally arrived at the hospital and of course, I didn't have to stand in line. I was attended to immediately.“S

The next morning I slowly opened my eyes to the warm brightness of morning light shining in through the window. The melodic chirping of birds outside filled the air, and I stretched, yawning loudly. But as my jaw cracked open wide, I remembered that I wasn't alone in the room. I quickly slapped my hand over my mouth, because I knew how much Sorin hated disturbances, and I had no intention of testing his patience.I immediately turned to his side of the bed to see his reaction, but to my surprise, he was nowhere in sight.“Where could he have gone?” I thought to myself.I wasn't sure if he had headed to the office or he was in his study, because it was one of those types of days where he would decide to stay in his study throughout the day.“Sorin?” I called out to him, hoping to get a response, even though I knew it was highly unlikely.As expected, I got no response and I wasn't too surprised. I got up and headed to the bathroom. The door was wide open and so, I knew he definitely wa

I heard Sorin's footsteps rushing out of the room, and heading towards me. I knew he must have heard the noise.Getting to where I was, and seeing that it was one of his favorite picture frames I had broken, he couldn't believe his eyes. “What the hell is this?” He yelled at me. “What exactly is wrong with you? Why are you such a clumsy girl? Why can't you just do anything right without causing chaos?”“I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to.” I immediately apologized.“That's what you always say. Yet you’ll do the same thing tomorrow.” He hissed in frustration.“I'm sorry…” I said again and crouched to the ground once again. “And what the hell do you think you're doing?” He asked, his eyebrows furrowed.“I want to clean it up right away.” I answered, trying to pick the broken pieces.My eyes remained fixed on him as I spoke to him to the point where I forgot what I was doing. And before he could warn me, I felt a sharp pain shoot through my already injured fingers.“Ouch!” I yelped, instin

Taken aback, I instantly stepped back. Tongue tied and speechless, I stood there staring at him in confusion.“Have you suddenly gone deaf?” He yelled at me again. “I just asked you a question. What the hell do you think you're doing, hugging me like that? Since when did we get so affectionate? Huh?”I was completely confused and for a moment, I didn't understand what was going on. This was someone with whom we had a very beautiful time hours before, but it seemed like he had become someone else in just a matter of hours. Like he had become a completely different person.Finally able to find my voice, I began to speak, “I'm sorry. I didn't mean to offend you. I thought we were already getting along. I thought that we—”“You thought wrong!” He barked, and I shook with fear.“Or wait, let me get this straight. Is it because we went out together and the whole world now knows that you're a “WIFE” to me?” He stressed the word “wife” in such an uncomfortable manner, and I could see the irr

Sorin pulled up at the parking lot of one of the Cole’s detached mansions in a private estate. Daisy had sent him the details of her whereabouts earlier and asked him to meet with her there. Despite the fact that it was many miles away from the city, he still drove all the way down to meet her.He turned off the ignition, took a deep breath and stepped out of the car.“Welcome sir,” He was greeted by one of Daisy's guards.Sorin nodded in acknowledgement, and asked, “Where is she?”“She is inside. She is waiting for you in the living room.“Thank you.” He responded, and walked in briskly.Staring outside through the gigantic glass door, holding a cup of wine in her right hand, and folding her left hand against her chest, was Daisy.The moment she sensed Sorin's presence, she scoffed.“You said you wanted to see me and that it was urgent. What's up?” Sorin said, standing metres away from her.She remained in that same spot, saying nothing, making the both of them remain in an awkward s

“Somewhere quiet?” I asked, still surprised.“Yes, that's correct.” He responded with a smile.“Uhmm… I thought that—”“Nah…” He gently interrupted me. He then leaned forward, his eyes staring deep into mine, making my heart tighten in my chest. “You don't have to think about anything. Just follow my lead.”As I looked at him, my eyes fell on his lips once again. The soft curve of his lips as he smiled did something I couldn't explain to me. I could feel his warm breath on my skin and this also sent shivers down my spine. The air around us felt charged with tension.Every sound seemed amplified - the soft batting of his eyelids, the gentle rhythm of his breathing. Everything seemed to possess its own loud sound. Time also seemed to stop completely, and I felt like I was holding my breath, waiting for something to happen.In that moment, everything else faded into the background, and all I could focus on was him. It was like it was just us two in the whole world. I felt drawn to him,

Sorin was speechless. He just stared at Daisy without knowing what to say. Never in his wildest dreams did he think that she would show up all of a sudden, without informing him beforehand.He helplessly stared at her, wishing he could do something before she began to spew the wrong words, which would complicate matters further.He knew better than to scold her because that would cause a scene, and with the amount of reporters and cameras in their faces, that would be the craziest and most stupidest idea.I, on the other hand, stood there without knowing what to say. I was definitely confused. It was only a matter of minutes before Daisy let the cat out of the bag about her relationship with Sorin.“Hi Sorin.” She greeted him with a broad smile.“Daisy…” Sorin spoke nervously. “I didn't know you were coming. I mean, you didn't tell me you were coming. I didn't expect to see you here.” He said it all in a rush.“I know.” She still had her smile on. “I wanted to surprise you. I hope you

ZAS HOLDINGS “Good morning, everyone.” Anne happily greeted everyone as she walked into the office, but she got no response, which was very unusual.Her eyes scanned the room, and she soon noticed her colleagues, gathered together at a table, focused on something on another colleague's computer.“What are you guys so focused on?” She asked, loudly.“Shhhhh….” They all gestured for her to be quiet, and she held her breath.“What is going on?” She whispered to Isabella, who was also in the room.Isabella pulled her to the other side of the room. “Haven't you heard?” Anne furrowed her brows in confusion. “Heard what?”“Heard the latest news.” Isabella answered.“I'm not sure of what you're talking about. What is the latest news?” Anne asked further, looking confused still.“The latest news about Sorin Zaveri.” Isabella said, sharply. “How do you not know? Have you been living under a rock?” She rolled her eyes at her.“I'm sorry, but when it comes to social media. I'm not really curren
