The Billionaire's Second Choice: Running away with his kids. Chapter 44
~~Maeve~~"No, he has had enough, take Maeve home," Victor said."I can go home by myself," I protested."Your friend was just attacked; she will kill me if I didn't at least have someone see you home." I tried protesting again but agreed not without saying,"Don't use Maddie to blackmail me ever again." I pouted and watched him drive off with Maddie."Are you ready?" I heard Mark's deep voice behind me.Ever since I recovered from the shooting incident, I have been avoiding him.I have always told myself I wouldn't fall for any man that has someone in his life. But then, with the incident, my feelings were all over the place, and we kissed. Since then, I have tried my best to avoid him."Maeve?" He jolted me from my thoughts. There is that voice again, that does strange things to my body. I bit my lower lip before turning around to face him."I'm ready." I said to him; he nodded and led me towards his car.I felt Mark's arm go around my back and his hand on my lower back as he held t

~~Maddie~~I woke up and saw Victor's face. He looked like an angel sleeping. The morning light made everything peaceful.Victor breathed quietly, and it felt warm and calm. I wondered what dreams he was having with his eyes closed.My hands touched his face, he moaned in his sleep. I blushed, knowing I had an effect on him even in his sleep.Today is a beautiful day, ever since Greta’s wedding. There has been a flood of calls from people wanting to either collaborate or have dresses made for them.Victor was also busy himself. The new project he got took a lot of his time, and we barely saw each other.Yesterday was the only time I had spent with Victor in the past week. He didn't want me to leave the kids alone in the house with their nanny.But when Margaret, Victor's Mom, and his sister Margaret wanted to spend time with the boys, I saw it as an opportunity to spend time with him.I got out of bed and headed for the bathroom. I took a long hot shower and put on one of his shirts.

~~Maddie~~I continued to tail Stephanie through the traffic; I couldn't shake the feeling that Stephanie's sudden reappearance was no coincidence.I decided to put a call through to Detective Amy. The phone rang for a while but no answer. I called again, still no answer.I decided to call 911. “911, what's your emergency?” I told the administrator everything; I was assured help was coming.The chase intensified, leading us to a quiet street where Stephanie finally pulled over. I parked behind her, frustration and curiosity building inside of me.I got down from my car, and Stephanie pulled a gun on me.“What the hell, Stephanie? Who do you think you are?” I almost charged at her.“Careful sis, I'm the one with the gun, remember?” She said, pointing the gun at me.“What do you want?” I asked, raising my hands.She scoffed, “you are pathetic. Dad's sick.”“You can tell me that without pointing a gun at me.”“Oh really, should I stop by your house and say hello to my nephew too.” She ke

Victor“What the hell are you doing here Evelyn.” I asked angrily. I asked as soon as I heard Maddie drive away. “What did I ruin the morning sex?” She pouted mockingly.“Are you going to answer my questions or are we going to keep playing games.” I glared at her“Did you think I was going to just leave like that? Hoping on a plan and just disappearing. “You need to leave.” I said pointing at the door“When is Greta returning back from her honeymoon?” “I'm not going to tell you that. She doesn't want to see you.” I said to her“I'm her Mom!” she screamed“You stop being her Mother the minute you walk out on us. Don't make this into something else, just leave.”Evelyn's eyes narrowed, anger flaring. "You can't keep me away from my daughter. I have rights."I stood my ground. "You forfeited those rights when you abandoned us. Greta deserves better than someone who disappears and reappears at their convenience.”“And besides, Greta is old enough to decide if she wants you in her life

Chandler“Fuck!!” I hit my head on the wheels of my car, Maddie staying with Victor increased the rage burning inside me.Why will she be staying with the bastard that ruined her life. The only explanation will be that she told him when Aiden was kidnapped…I got to my office and met someone in my seat. “She's staying with Victor.” I said to the person in front of me.“How did that happen?” “I guess she finally told him the paternity of the boys.” I said “Fuck!!Our whole idea of revenge was counting on her not telling him. I thought you had Stephanie on a leash.”“If not for her, we won't be in this mess. Did you put her up to this?” “I didn't.” I replied, “but you went along with it, when she decided to use your name and staged that you were beaten. You went along with the plan.”I hit the table hard. “You haven't been coming up with Ideas. Stephanie brought hers and it was fun. I felt full for the first time. Seeing Victor panic and not being in control.” I said through my teeth

~~Victor~~I held the paper in my hand. I remembered going to a club and drowning in my sorrow the day after my wedding but I don't remember meeting anyone about a pregnancy. I got in my car and decided to drive to Maddie's place. I kept contemplating on whether I should tell her or not. I promised there will be no more secrets but I don't know how she will take this one. I don't want to lose her, but this is one secret I don't know if I will be able to share. I was so deep in thought, I didn't know when I got to Maddie's place. I got to the front of the door and could hear so many voices. “Daddy!” The boys screamed immediately when they saw me. “My boys!” I carried them up, hugging them both. They giggle as I tickle them.“I want to get down.” Aiden screamed throwing his legs around“Behave Aiden.” Maddie said sternly. She always correct them with affectionMy mom hugged me, “Is she gone?”She was referring to Evelyn. Margaret came closer to us and I hugged her.“I heard what ha

~~Maddie~~“Yeah right, it's all you. Fuck you Madison” Victor stormed out out of my house.I was in shock, when did this turn out to be my fault.“Mummy, why is Daddy angry?” I heard Caleb behind me. “Go back to your room Caleb.” I screamed at him. I looked up and Victor's mom and sister were staring at me. “You didn't have to take it out on him.” Margaret saidI scoffed, “your brother just stormed out of here, blaming me for his mistakes, now you want to tell me how to speak to my kid.”She inhaled deeply, moving closer to me, “All this is your fault whether you want to admit it or not.” “You all never accepted me, you just did because of the kids. You blame me for a situation I had no control over.” Her mom scoffed, “you keep calling yourself the victim and you won't have children too yourself.”I looked at her shocked, she just threatened to take the kids away from me. “How dare you.” “Watch me. Let's go Margaret.” They both picked up their bags and left. Leaving me in shock.

~~Victor~~I walked angrily to my car, slamming the door. I didn't know why I reacted that way. Hearing I caused the death of someone, but not just anyone, Chandler's sister. That means what he said was the truth. I drove straight home, I haven't paid for the damages for my building and I needed to get the insurance information. That was at the back of my mind, but Chandler is coming after me because of what I did to his sister. I needed to be ready and focused but my conscience wasn't clear.The more I thought about it, the more confused I got. How could Mom have done that? “She should have just told me.” I thundered.Suddenly, I realized I was speeding and I had to slow down. I saw flashing lights behind me and my heart skipped a beat. A police car pulled up behind me and the lights stopped flashing. The officer got out and walked to my car. I rolled down my window and smiled at him. "I'm sorry officer, I was just lost in thought. I didn't realize I was going over the speed lim

~~Victor~~“Matthew! I'm right here.” As I said those words it felt like some sand particles were dropped into my throat.I kept walking deeper into the mall but I didn't see him, just some of his minions pointing guns at me from across the wall.“Well, well.” Matthew came out clapping his hands with a smirk on his face. It was taking everything in me not to run towards him and see if I could end this once and for all.But nope, I have to think of Madison and the kids.“Why are you doing this Mathew?” I asked him.He shrugged his shoulders and then stared at me. “How does it feel to be the lesser man right now?”“I don't understand you.” I said to him, trying not to jump out of my skin because of the weapons close to me.“Madison needs a bigger man and right that isn't you.” He said.“So you are the bigger man because you are holding a shopping mall hostage?” I asked him, sounding disgusted.He placed his two hands in front of him, “anything for a reunion with my girl and my boys.”“

~~Victor~~I stood in front of the giant window in my office. Marveling at the sight of the city from where I stood.This city has taken a lot from me. It has also given me plenty of reasons to keep on fighting.I took out my phone and opened it. My wallpaper showed Choice. Madison likes calling her Miranda.I know that's her name but I prefer, Choice. She makes me think of the different ways I will choose to protect my family even if it means giving my life for them.She looks so pretty in this picture and peaceful like she doesn't have any care in the world.“Turn on the TV!” Alex shot at me while he barged into my office.“Oh please, come in.” I said sarcastically.“Just turn on the TV!” He yelled“Okay.” I said softly. I turned on the TV and it was showing a mass shooting in a shopping mall.“Is this any of ours?” I asked him.“No, but Madison and the kids are in there.” He said.I felt numb and the whole world seemed to stop moving. The sound of the remote falling down brought me
The Billionaire's Second Choice: Running away with his kids. Chapter 186: Christmas shopping!
~~Madison~~It feels like the world is finally in our favor. Our lives have been filled with so much joy and glamor that sometimes I begin to doubt that I went to some certain things in my life.Life has been good. My career has been flourishing and so has Victor's. He has opened fourteen more branches in different parts of the world.Mark and Meave left the country because Mark is overseeing some of the branches. That was after we found out his fiance wasn't a real fiance after all. She was fake and used to trick Meave.She nearly killed him when she found out but I'm happy she found someone to love her just the way I am loved.Cynthia is living her best life with my step brother, Philip, who is in the race for Mayor of the city. She has been helping him with his campaign and so have we in our free time.Renee and Michael are having a blast, especially with Isabella. They looked so lovely and happy. I'm so glad she found me and I found her because I wouldn't have made it out of some

~~Madison~~I froze as I felt water trail down my thighs. A gasp escaped my lips as I realized my water just broke. Panic swelled in my chest as the wetness clinged to my skin and I struggled to control my panic. “Vi–Victor.” I stammered, feeling the fear in my throat.“You are fine.” He said holding me. “Steven is outside, I will go get him.” He said, trying to leave.“No, no. Don't leave me alone.” I said to him. I held his arms.“Okay.” I took a sharp breath, taking in the pain hitting me every ten minutes and counting.“We are just going to the car.” He said.“I don't think I can!” I yelled at him, digging my fingers into his arms.“Yes, you can.” He said.Each step brought a sharp pain to my legs like I have ever felt before.It wasn't like this with Aiden and Caleb because it was a C-section.“We are almost to the door.” Victor said.“Go, get Steven.” I said to him.“Are you sure?” He asked, “it's just a few steps.”“Get him!” I yelled at him. I don't know if I meant too or did
The Billionaire's Second Choice: Running away with his kids. Chapter 184: Pregnant!
~~Madison~~It's been a few months since my step sister kidnapped me and held me hostage for ransom money.These last few months I have been trying to heal and also grow a human being inside of me.Finding out I was pregnant came out with mixed reactions. I was glad I got to give my boys a baby sibling but on the other hand I was scared another enemy will come after us or maybe Stephanie will break out of prison.Holding this picture of myself and Stephanie in my hands reminds me of when we were little. How we did not have any evil in our mind. All we wanted was for our parents to give us sweets and treasure.“Hey, you have been staring at that picture for a while.” I heard Victor's voice behind me.“I know.” I said, putting it back in the box. “My Mom gave it to me during the trial.” I said to him.“She shouldn't have done that.” He said, sternly.“I know, but it's okay.”“No, it's not. They might be your family but all they have wanted to do was hurt you. The only person who made am

~~Victor~~I heard the door open and closed then I saw Renee walk towards me.She squatted the same way I did and placed her head on my shoulders.“When I found Madison. I thought she was going to be mean to me for having spent time with a dad that loved me. And I will be mean to her because she had our mom.” She said.“But even with all those thoughts in my head when I saw her it just flew away because she brings so much light out of her body. And maybe because her first reaction to seeing me was calling me mom.” We both laughed.She held my hands, “Madison is strong. With everything she has gone through. She is strong and capable of handling herself against that evil woman.”She scoffed, “I never understood why she still refers to Stephanie as her step sister but I see it now.” She said.“Why?” I asked her “Because she believes in love, you made her love. So you have to believe in her. Believe in her to survive.” She said.“Thanks Renee.” I said to her.“Don't just thank me. Get up

~~Victor~~It felt like the earth was spinning in different directions. How can one victory lead to another problem?“What–do you mean?’ I stammered, I could feel sweats on my forehead including on my eyes.Everything was in motion but I wasn't understanding it.“He needs to get his phone out.” I heard Renee's voice but it sounded so far away.I watched as Bethany was taken away by the police. Our eyes met and she seemed to be sympathetic.I turned my hands into a fist and released them. I did for about five minutes. It's a trick Edward taught me to do whenever I'm scared and right now I'm pretty scared.“Victor, we have to go.” I heard Alex say, loud and clear.“Yeah, yeah.” I got up and rushed out of the room with all of them racing behind me.There were a lot of reporters everywhere. My security spotted us and came to our rescue.“Mr. Reynolds, is Bethany behind this?” A reporter asked.“Have you seen the video, Victor?” Another one asked.“What video?” I blurted out.“Just let's g

~~Victor~~I buttoned up my tux as I got out of the car. Mark and Michael guarded me up to the inside of the court while my security helped Renee and Cynthia.My Mom had to excuse herself from the case because of her conflict of interest which is me. “Thanks guys.” I said to Mark and Michael.“Are you ready for this?” Alex asked me.I inhaled sharply, taking in as much air as I could.“Yes, I'm ready.” I tapped his shoulder.“Hmm, Victor.” Renee called me. I turned around to look at her.She and Cynthia were giving me the same expression they give to me before we entered the courtroom.“This is the most crucial part of this case. And it will be the end of you like I tell you to.” She said.“I will.” I said to her.“I don't need that. You have said that countless times and still misbehave. Today you are going to swear it.” She sounded serious.I laughed, so did the guys but their expressions didn't change.“Oh you are serious?” Michael asked.“I'm dead serious.” Renee said to him. “I

~~Madison~~It felt like we have been driving for hours. The van doesn't seem to stop at each checkpoint.It just drives away like a crazy person. The van, not who is driving it. Maybe who hmis driving it I could feel my wrist getting numb because of how tight the ropes are tied around my hands.I could breath because the bag over my head smells like feaces or something else. I don't know but if makes me choke and neousous.I didn't know if I should scream or kick the van until I'm able to get out. This isn't my first rodeo in getting kidnapped but have been dreaming everyday for the past week how Stephanie is going to make me suffer. Thinking straight has been thrown off the table.The van suddenly came to a stop. I heard people get down and the back of the van was opened.“Get down!” I heard a very deep voice say.Asking them for help will be a mockery to me. They are definitely going to laugh so there is no need.I struggled to lift myself up and I did. I got out of the van and th
