The Billionaire's Second Choice: Running away with his kids. Chapter 73
~~Victor~~“Victor Reynolds, you thought you could escape your past, but it catches up faster than you think. Your secrets will unravel, and the ones you hold dear will pay the price. Tick-tock, Victor. Tick-tock."Those damn intercoms, what's the meaning of all this. The Governor's security all went to check the hospital intercom, but I had a feeling no one was there in the first place."Sir, there's nothing here," one of the security guards reported."I know," I said, more to myself than to the guard. "But there's got to be something here. Look harder."The men resumed their search, but I knew it was futile. Whoever was behind this had anticipated our every move, and they had been a step ahead of us the whole time. They wanted us to know that they were watching us, and that they could strike at any moment. I had to find a way to stop them before it was too late.“So what's your plan for catching him and telling you who he works for?” I asked Detective Amy.“Since we now have a clear

~~Leo~~“I had fun last night, you know that.” Stephanie was under the blanket crawling her way up to my chest with her eyes on my dick.“I know, you are clearly on me.” I rolled my eyes. That's been our routine for the last week. Sex, sex, sex.I honestly don't know what I'm doing with her, apart from how intelligent she can be sometimes in matters that involve her step sister and my step brother, she has no use.“Ohh come-on don't be like that. I know you want it.” She whispered in my earlobes.I immediately harden. What the hell. I have never reacted to her this way before.“Huh, so you want me.” Her lips were all over my neck.I turned her over, laying on top of her. “Don't do that again.” I said pretending to be mad, but she wasn't buying it.“Don't do this?” She brought my head close to her lips, placing her hickey on my neck.I silently moaned in my head, “that's enough.” I stood up from the bed, facing the window.“If you don't want me, then why am I here? I won't let another

~~Victor~~“What!” I screamed. “What do you mean he wants her out of the hospital? He can't do that.”“Actually sir, he can. As the owner of the hospital it is within his rights.”“He's right? Is she stable enough to be moved?” I asked the doctor.“Moved? The governor chipped in. Here we go again. “ By far, this is the best hospital apart from 50 STEEL hospitals. And I don't have the means or access to that hospital.” At least I have something you don't, I gave a little unnoticed smile. “I will have a talk with Mr. Leo and plead with him to allow my daughter to stay here. Where is he? Is he on his way? He asked.I chuckled, “you won't be able to reason with Leo.” The governor was about to speak when Leo walked towards us.”Why is that brother?”I could see the shock in the governor's eyes when Leo called me brother.“Because you are a mockery of yourself and that mother of ours. Bringing people down to lift yourself up.” While I was talking Mark walked towards us and whispered somet

~~Maddie~~As I opened my eyes, I realized I was in a hospital bed. The white walls and the smell of disinfectant were a dead giveaway. I felt groggy and disoriented, struggling to remember how I had ended up here."Maddie!" I heard my mother's voice again, this time more urgent. "Maddie, can you hear me?"I turned my head to see my mother standing next to me, looking more concerned than I had ever seen her. My mind was racing, trying to make sense of what was happening. Was I in a dream? Or was I really in a hospital bed? I tried to speak, but my voice was weak and raspy. "Mom... what's happening?" I croaked out."Maddie, you've been in a coma for the past two weeks," my mother said, her eyes filling with tears. "We didn't know if you were ever going to wake up."I was stunned, trying to process what she was saying. A coma? For two weeks? My last memory was of being at work, talking to a client. What had happened? How is she here?“How are you here Mom?” I was getting blurred vision.

~~Maddie~~As I opened my eyes, things were fuzzy, but each moment made the view less blurry.“She's waking up,” Maeve said, her voice cutting through the confusion.“Quick! Get the doctors,” a grown-up voice chimed in, different from Victor's family or mine, adding a touch of urgency.The more I could see, the more details emerged. A man was leaning over me, looking worried and caring, making me wonder what happened.“You are okay now baby. You are safe.” Who is this and why did he just treat me like a child. His child.I could move, or twist any part of my body. I could hear the doctors come and send everyone out. “Can you open your eyes Miss Maddie?“Can you tell me where you are, can you recognize your surroundings?” “A hospital.” I said then passed out again.I woke up to the room smelling like lavender, that's my mom's favorite perfume.“Mom?” I whispered slowly.“No, it's just us.” I opened my eyes to see Victor, Maeve, Renee and a middle aged man.“Mom isn't here?” I said tr

~~Maddie~~There was a brief awkward silence before I spoke up, “where is this coming from Victor.” I asked him.He bit his lips, a manner he knows drives me crazy, “ever since I came into your life, it's been hell for. Since the beginning when I made the debt deal with your father.”I stood up from the chair I was sitting on, “and all of a sudden, what, am too good for you. After everything we have been through.” “I'm just saying you are better off without me in your life. And I don't want to be in your life.” There was a flash of regret after he said that, but his eyes quickly turned cold. “Oh my god.” My hands came on my head in discomfort. “What about the kids?” They need protection for being your son's. Leo isn't going to stop coming after them.” “That's why I'm going to take them out for lunch tomorrow, and let the paparazzi take some photos of us and I will also do a press conference.” “That was my thought, we were going to do that as a family.”"I suppose we won't be doing

~~Victor~~“Miss Maddie, how are you?“Have the doctors cleared you for work.“Why was Mr. Reynolds with your kids?”She turned around when she heard the question. I was watching the paparazzi hustle on Maddie for answers in my office. And I knew she was going to answer the last one.“You should ask Mr. Reynolds.” She said and turned away. It's like the plans I set in motion worked.“Man, you know that's not right.” I heard Alex's voice.“What's not right?” I asked him.“Pretending to break up with Maddie, just because her father said so.” “It's not a pretense. I broke up with her and her dad has nothing to do with this.” “Yeah. Come on man.” He scoffed, “even if that's true, then why are you trying to sabotage whatever love she still has for you. I heard what you said to Aiden and Caleb the last time we were with them.” “I don't want to see her hurt anymore. She has only gotten hurt because she is with me. And then I still don't need to be interrogated by my friend.” “Yeah, it's

~~Leo~~Today is a good day, I could feel the cool breeze of New York on my face, and the buzzing sounds of the busy streets of the city.I got into the car with Mark, I know he could sense the anger in me so he kept his distance.I wouldn't let it pass even though I am feeling good today. I am on my way to One of 50 STEEL companies for a contract.50 STEEL is one of the biggest steel industries in the county, from steel to fuel to renewed energy. There isn't an industry they haven't touched. They were the perfect place to nag a deal to improve the company, because without it, I can't change the name of the company."Where were you Saturday?” I asked Mark.“Maddie left the hospital, it was a celebration.” He said.“I don't care, you work for me now.” I said to him,He chuckled, “I don't know what you want Leo, or is it Mr. Leo. I agree to work with you, not abandon my family.” “You won't have much family to care for when I..” “When you what?” He interrupted me, “again with the thre

~~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.”“
The Billionaire's Second Choice: Running away with his kids. Chapter 187: Another Choice!
~~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
The Billionaire's Second Choice: Running away with his kids. Chapter 182: If She Was Here!
~~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
