2024-10-29 19:42:56Lillian's call woke me up at exactly 7:15 am as I rushed out of the bed into the shower. I didn't sleep a wink last night as I kept thinking about Michael's mom's words to me.
The driver had dropped me off at home yesterday, I cried myself to sleep still now.I quickly rush through the shower and walk into my closet, the flowery gown Michael bought for me stares at me taunting me. Tearfully, I grab it and throw it into the trash can as I pick a more suitable dress for work.
Driving into the parking lot at work, I rest my head on the steering as I try to bring back my heavy breathing to normal. Lilian's call this morning has been brisk, asking about my health and telling me that Michael has called her yesterday.
Ever since yesterday, I have been avoiding his calls, I can't believe his mom would stoop so low to lie that I was with Austin. If that is what she wants I'm going to give it to her.
Thankfully, I and Austin didn't break up and no one saw me

"Danny!Danny!!" I scream at the top of my voice. This is the only problem I have with him, he takes time dressing when he, not a lady. Danny walks out of the bedroom door, doing his cuff while smiling at me showing his perfect teeth. I glared at him"So you heard me right?” “Of course baby,” He said coming closer to peck me on the cheek. Let's go else we'll be late for our doctor's appointment" He said as he guides me out of the door. "So you knew about that and you still took ages dressing" "It's not my fault baby, you know I have to look good for you" He replies winking at me. He walks briskly to the driver's side and get in, and pulled out of the driveway to take the road to the hospital. For the past one month now, I've been feeling sick and occasionally nauseous. I've always dismissed it as being the weather. But today nauseous was so bad that Danny set an appointment with our family doctor, we ate on the way to see her. "W

I walk briskly into my office as Aurora scrambles out of her office to follow me. "Sir! Sir!!. Mr. Alexandro is here to see you," she said, rushing to keep up with my stride. I opened the door to my office and walk-in banging it loudly in her face. I don't care if it hits her on the face or not. She opens the door and walks in slowly with her head bowed. "I would like to be alone Aurora. I don't want to see anyone for now " I said without looking up at her as I stood with my back to her staring outside the window. "But____________" "Get out!!" I shouted at her. She ran out of my office scared as I sat down on my cushion chair resting my head frustrated and tired. I should probably hate Nina Miller right now but why am I still staring at her pictures on my phone. I've been trying to reach her for the past four days now and she just won't pick
The Billionaire's Secret Lover Chapter 30: The Interview
I arrived at my office very early this morning. Today being my last day at work, I want to get everything done on time and go home to my parents. I spent hours on the phone yesterday night talking with my dad and he has accepted for me to take over the running of his company for the meantime until I gather enough money to build my own media house. Sitting down on my desk, I went through the question once again. None of them were implicating or harmful to me, though seeing them both together is enough to hurt me but I just couldn't shake off Deborah's warning to me. Speaking of her, she walks into my office looking as beautiful as ever in a pink jumpsuit and white stiletto heels. I look up from the file I was holding to glare at her. I don't know why she's here again today. Is she here to taunt me? "Hi, Nina Miller is it?" She said laughing "I heard it's your last day at work today, so I brought you flowers as a sent-off gift for a job well-done," She

I stood up abruptly from the couch as I turn to go after Nina but Deborah pulled me back. I still can't wrap my head around her pregnancy. Is this one of her scheme to separate me from Nina?.And to think that both of my parents are aware of it, it's no wonder mom and her were getting closer the other day. How can she be pregnant, I've never released inside of her, hell! I never had sex with her without using a condom."How many months is the pregnancy?"I said as I turn to look at her awaiting her reply."I_________" she fidgeted on her seat avoiding my eyes nervously"Michael, my son. How are you?" Mr. Melton said as he comes over to greet me cutting her off from whatever she wanted to say."I'm good sir" I reply as I turn to leave "I'm sorry I have a meeting with important investors in thirty minutes" I lied to him as he nodded for me to go. That's one of the specks of being a rich CEO, you can lie using your business as an excuse.

"Oh my God! Danny, you've got to see this" I exclaim from the sitting room. Danny rushes out of the room panicking as he came over to meet me. His brown hair fans his brows from the running."What is it? Are you hurt?" He runs his hands through my body searching for any signs of pain or discomfort."I'm good but this_____" I look over at him as I pointed to the television in front of me. He sat down as we both watch the live interview with Michael and Deborah."Deborah Melton is pregnant!! How?" Danny exclaims shocked with his hands folded across his chest."Obviously, from what we just heard and they will be having their wedding a month after ours" I stood up from the couch, pacing around the sitting room getting angry. I can't believe Nina had to go through all of this. Why can't she be happy in her life?"Baby is alright. They will overcome this" Danny came over

"We are here" Austin deep voice call out to me as I turn to look at him then around my surrounding. I still can't believe that Lilian talked me into coming, left to me alone I wouldn't be here right now. I don't feel like partying anyway.I walk out of the car and stood beside Austin on the red carpet linking my hand on his arm. Today is the launching party of the Hotel Italia. Yes, the same hotel Michael and I first met ten years ago."Are you sure, you really want to do this" Austin said to me, his voice laced with concern? I look up at him and offer him a small smile as I nodded. I feel so guilty for using him right now but I will do anything for me not to be with Michael right now."Okay, let's do this" Austin said smiling as we walk into the hotel. I was thankful that there was no one to announce our names just to check our invitation and this was no masquerade ball, just a regular dinner night party but even at that there were still classic c

I cock my eyebrow at her surprised, "Really, let's see then"She smiles at me as I cursed the cleaning lady, what taking her so long?. I walk to the door to taste the handle, a time like this, I hate this state of the art door."I____this____is_____the___key" I turn to the lady who was in a stuttering mess because of me. I hastily grab the keys from her as she ran for her dear life, I open the door and drag Nina inside, closing the door and locking it."Locking us in, are we?" Nina said seductively as she looks at me, I turn to look at her excited as hell, I never knew her to be a seductress but I like her a lot right now."You talk too much, Bella Mio," I said as I walk slowly up to her, unbuttoning my blazer in the process, she licks her lips. Woah!, that's exactly the kind of response I wanted with my blazer off, I push her on the bed kissing her roughly, the sexual drive was so much that I struggle to breathe."You will be t

"I love you Michael Thompson" I heard Deborah said to Michael immediately, I and Austin enter into the dance floor.They were oblivion to us, I brace myself as I waited for Michael's response."What are you on edge for? Surely, Michael loves you" My subconscious said rolling her eyes at me being nervous"Wow! girl. I thought you've abandon me too, it's been ages I last saw you. Oh! How I've missed you" I said sarcastically while rolling my eyes at her too, she glares at me but I ignored her in time to hear Michael's faint whisper"I love you too, Deborah Melton" My heart bled at that simple word that held much emotions. I tightens my grip on Austin shoulder as I hide my face on his neck, the tear were falling down my face"Are you alright, Nina," Austin concern voice cut out through me as I nodded my head at him."I'm okay Austin properly tired from all the partying

I shield my eyes from the harsh sun with the purse in my hands, it felt so good to be finally free. “ Woah! The weather is so good today” I exclaimed excitedly, taking a swirl around in excitement. “ Yes, you can say that again” I turned to see Xavier gazing up at me with so much love and affection in his eyes that I couldn't help shielding away shyly.

Come on in” I told her with a broad smile on my face as I motioned her over.Aurora dropped the file on my table while I flipped through the pages looking for a particular entry. It was the budget for the Thompson's Hospital.

The director of the Thompson's Hospital.“ So, Doctor Damien. We've cut down the budget to fifty million dollars, hope that will be enough?” I asked him, I could see his lips curled up in a fr

We all sat in the courtroom looking around while I held onto my daughter's hands, Michael was on my right holding on to Nadia's hands while Nora was beside me. They had recovered from most of their bruises but we were all still going to therapy every Tuesday. Even Lillian had joined us this time, I couldn't help regretting dragging her into my mess.I stared into the whitewashed room of the courtroom but I wasn't really seeing anything. All I could remember was the night when I felt I was going to die and Michael had saved me the second time ...“ What is she doing?” I turned to stare at Lillian who gazed was fixed on Deborah, who was checking her gun to see if she had enough ammunition in them wearing a light smile on her face.

I paced around my office in anticipation, ever since our last call with Lillian, we couldn't get in touch with her. She had refused to answer any of our calls and had sent it to her voicemail.“ Any luck with her yet?” I turned to ask Danny who was trying her phone again. I could see the worry etch his brows as sweat streamed down his face. I couldn't help being annoyed with myself that I had caused everything. I regretted ever bringing him and Lillian into this mess. Hell, I regretted ever risking my wife and children's life. If only I never met Deborah then none of this would have happened.“ Not yet. She just won't pick up even after leaving her a dozen messages. She's just so stubborn especially when it comes to Nina” Danny exclaimed running his hands through his hair in frustration as he paced to and fro

“ Joey, come on. Please stop crying. You've got to be strong for your godmother” I called gently to my son who was crying silently on his bed as I stood in his doorway.“ But mom, I'm missing Nora and Nadia so much. I don't know what's going on with them. And who the fuck is Deborah? I so hate her” He screamed at me as he turned to watch me from the doorway trying to dab at his now teary eyes.I strolled to pull him close as I let him sobbed on my shoulder, ignoring him using the swear word. Any other day, I would have scolded him but today, I decided to let him be since he was hurting so badly.“ It's okay son, momma understands. I promise we'll find them soon but please you've got to be strong for them. You know Nora and Nadia wouldn't like to

I couldn't help being worried about them. Is Deborah taking care of them? Have they eaten?A lot of things are going through my mind but there's no one to talk to. Michael had been busy these days, especially after he found out that Deborah had tricked him.He couldn't stop blaming himself for not being vigilant and I couldn't add to his self-loathing by telling him about the calls I've been receiving and that from Deborah.I could still remember her last call which was a few weeks ago after we came back from the hos

I mean most casino businesses are illegal and I wouldn't want my money to go to waste.

He was a Spanish business tycoon who had quite a fortune but didn't know how to invest his money.
