The Billionaire's Second Choice: Running away with his kids. Chapter 8
Maddie"What the hell is he doing here?!". Surprise was written all over my face. Of all the places, I never expected him to be here at my fashion show."Madison..." Victor spoke, coming close to me."It's Maddie, just Maddie." I told him, but he just kept staring at me."I'm sorry, but it's been a long time. Last time I saw you, we were both in a weird situation."While he was speaking, a familiar figure came down the red carpet towards us."Maddie?" What are you doing here?"Stephanie asked with disdain in her voice."What am I doing here? Are those supposed to be the right questions?" I asked, laughing."I thought you left the city." She said"I did, and I'm back. What are you doing here?""I didn't know it was your show till I got here." She said that. I noticed her moving close to Victor, trying to hold his hands. But he smacked her hands down and moved closer to me."Don't come any further." Maeve, who has been watching the whole thing, stood between myself and Victor."It's oka

MaddieI woke up to the sun on my face and the non stop buzzing of my phone. I have a busy schedule today, and hearing the sound of my phone isn't helping.I stood up, did my daily routine, and headed for the kitchen to get myself a coffee drink. The house was silent, which means Aiden and Caleb had left for school.My heart ached at that; at least I saw them before they went to bed last night. But it isn't enough. I knew that.Taking a sip of my coffee, I went through my phone to see a lot of messages from Maeve, and they were not good."Where are you, girl?. You need to get here ASAP." Oversleeping wasn't my thing, except when I was truly tired. I drank all the coffee and hurriedly left for the office.I wore a short body hug singlet gown with a white shirt, a long light jacket, and sneakers. I complimented my looks with a black shade, and I felt good about myself.I arrived at the office to see a lot of cameras and reporters at my entrance."What the hell?" I almost shouted."Shoul

MaddieDriving Aiden and Caleb to the park, started to feel like the wrong thing to do. I kept wondering who would have taken those pictures of me and why. A reporter maybe but how did they know where to find because clearly they were waiting for me. "Watch it." I was about to bump into another lane and cause an accident. "Watch your six ma'am!.""Do you want to cause an accident?!" "You shouldn't be on the road if you can't drive!." I heard someone. So arrogant. So many questions on my driving skills. Ignoring the rude comment, I concentrated on driving through the traffic. The weird pictures were bothering me, making me wonder who took them and why. As we got to the park, I felt uneasy. I parked, looking around carefully, worried about the chance of being followed or watched."You guys okay?" I asked Caleb and AidenI saw them shake their heads but they were engrossed in the game they were playing.The park was like a little break from all the crazy stuff around me. Seeing Ai

VictorI looked at her as she got into her car and drove off. Memories of that night came rushing in, firing adrenaline into me."Are we done here?" I heard Stephanie behind me."Yeah, I am." I said, turning around."Along with whatever this is." I said, pointing."What!" She shouted, almost drawing attention to us."It looks like you want to ruin the attention you got tonight." I said, smirking at her."I have done everything you asked; the minute you see her, everything we have is just gone." I could hear the surprise and anxiety in her voice.You never told me you had feelings for my step sister!" She said it between her teeth."I never told you anything, and we never had anything." I said it nonchalantly.I got into the car and rolled down my window. I looked up to her and said,"You can find your own way home." Then I drove off."Everything we had, you call fucking, everything we had." I laughed so hard and watched her from the rear mirror until she was out of sight. Now, it is

VictorShe was about to protest when one of the kids cried out to her."Mama!" The one with the familiar blue eyes cried out. I can't place where I have seen them before. The eyes, I mean."Okay, let's go." Finally!, I motioned for my bodyguards to follow.I gave directions to one of my company's hospitals.We got to the hospital, and Madison rushed to get the attendees for her child."Do you need help?" I said, trying to help her."No, thank you. I got it from here.I nodded, watching her walk into the hospital with her kids."It's going to be alright, babies." I heard her trying to calm them down from the horrifying experience they just had.I paced around the hospital lobby for twenty minutes, watching people come and go and steal glances at me."Hey, thanks for your help, but I got it from here." I turned around to hear the voice that spoke."No, it's fine. I can wait.""Then you will be waiting for no one. I don't need your help, Mr. Reynolds, and I can take care of my kids mysel

Maddie"My God, that looked intense." Maeve said to me immediately, and I got into the car. I didn't respond to her; I remained quiet all through the drive home.When we got home, I took Aiden and Caleb to their room to have a hot bath. They have gone through what most kids their age haven't gone through today.I took it upon myself to clean them up and take a bath.I took them to the bathroom. While bathing them, I started crying."Non piangere, mamma." Aiden asked me"I'm not crying, baby." I replied to him, laughing and crying."Mamma è così dispiaciuta per oggi""Ti amiamo, mamma."I'm going to protect my babies, no matter what. Starting with who sent that reporter after me and why.I fed them their dinner and put them to sleep, then proceeded to the living room to talk with Meave. I know she is dying to hear all the details of what happened."Are they asleep?" Sha asked."Yeah, they're." I responded, still upset and teary."It's not your fault; you know that, right?" She was cons

MaddieFeeling like myself again, I put on a very sexy outfit and headed off to the office.I put down extreme measures of security for Aiden and Caleb, in school and at home. They won't see the bodyguards but the bodyguards will see them. Even though they need the security, they deserve a normal childhood, filled with love and some carefree activities.Before dropping by the office, I stopped by a coffee shop. I needed to get out there. I needed to prove to people that I am not bothered by the rumors or negativity flying around about me."Two coffees please." I told the waitress, who stared at me for her while before getting my order. I could hear whispers behind me but I wasn't bothered about it. I got my coffee and left the coffee shop, walking to my car, a lot of camera men were taking pictures of me. No questions were being asked. Just pictures. Not like that was any better. I got into my car and drove to the office."Maeve, what are you doing out here?" I saw her in the park

Maddie.I stormed the conference room and went directly to Eleanor. Maeve tried to stop me, but I didn't let up."You had an interview with my sister days before this but chose not to air it until you got information out of me." I said it angrily to her."Get information out of you. You literally said nothing in the interview, but Stephanie gave us a juicy story."She said she was playing with her hair."I thought the media was about the truth. Everything she said was a lie." I was shaking and almost in tears, but I stood firm."Which part? Didn't you sleep with her husband? She asked"That's not what happened." I was almost screaming."Then what happened, or in fact, tell me who the husband is, and I will discredit Stephanie's video?""You say her name like you know her." I looked at her, trying to find an admission to what I just said, but didn't find any. She looked at me like I had upset her or something.Telling her Victor is the man both I and Stephanie are talking about won't di

~~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
