The Billionaire's Secret Obsession Chapter 116: Lost Puppy
LESI was in the throes of my own anger, but the moment I noticed the departure of my brother, my rage softened. One glance at Iris, and she nodded at me to go after him, which I did. Entering the elevator, I pulled out my phone and accessed all the cameras to pinpoint my brother's location. It didn't take long to find him scurrying down the stairs to the ground floor. My brother has always been one to maintain composure in all things, but now, from my point of view, he was an agitated mess. Pressing the button for the ground floo, I sighed and let the elevator begin its descent to the living room. Sometimes, I wonder what my life would have been like if I had grown up with a good, normal father. Maybe I'd be some corporate guy living in a cute condo, married with one or two kids instead of having an irrational fear of intimacy and⁸8⁸⁸fatherhood. Maybe I'd be a normal guy. But I'm not. Instead, I'm messed up in the head, struggling with a trauma I wouldn't wish on anyone. Thank Go

IRISWith a sense of urgency pulsing through my veins, I exchanged a determined glance with Les, silently communicating our resolve to confront the looming threat head-on. Meera and Roscoe stood beside us, their expressions a mix of fear and determination as we faced the sinister figure before us.As the cult leader's ominous words hung heavy in the air, a wave of defiance washed over me, driving out the fear that threatened to consume me. We may have been caught off guard, but we were not powerless. Together, we would stand against the darkness that sought to engulf us.Les stepped forward, his voice steady despite the tension crackling in the air. "Who are you?" he demanded, his tone firm and commanding.The cult leader regarded him with a chilling smile, his eyes gleaming with malice. "I am merely a messenger," he replied cryptically, his voice dripping with contempt. "A harbinger of the truth that you refuse to see."I bristled at his words, the implication clear. This was not mer

IRISIt's been days since the threat was made, and nothing else has happened. Still, I lived in quiet fear, always looking over my shoulder despite Les tripling my bodyguards. The media wasn't helping either.Everywhere I went, they followed with their cameras, and they were obnoxious about it. If it weren't for the men Les hired to protect me, they would be in my face, flashing their cameras and asking me stupid questions. Even the crazy speculations they made about me still hadn't died down. People still believed I was from an old money rich family that preferred to keep their name out of the news while the majority believed I was a low lifer who inserted myself into Les and Walter's life and was content to play them against each other. I really didn't care for the gossip. I just wanted to be able to do my job and save people's lives behind the scenes. So, every day before and after work, Meera and I convened on Hannah's matter. Since that day, we hadn't made any major progress in

IRISThankfully, I didn't have to come out here and face them. My driver, after submitting his pass to the security, drove past the vultures into the underground parking lot of the building I work in and I smirked knowing those mean nosey people won't be able to come in.Just as my driver parked, I noticed a familiar car on the opposite side of the lot and immediately guessed who it belonged to. It was a red Lamborghini. Just then, the car door opened for me and just as I stepped out, Walter Caine climbed out of his car. Our eyes met but I couldn’t decipher anything from his neutral expression. The last time I saw him was at the interview and we had departed on good terms before he disappeared for days. Now he's back.Are we not friends anymore? Will he ignore me? Should I ignore him?I realized I was at a standstill and so was he. So I made the first move and waved at him with a small smile. He didn't return my smile but he nodded my way. Okay. I guess he doesn't totally hate me t

LESI decided not to go to the office today, so I stayed home and did some corporate work. Although I did get the urge to see Iris and surprise her for lunch, I had something better in mind. I had ordered for custom made baby cribs from Germany, which I still get to put together. After a call to the delivery men who would be arriving soon, I changed into something I never thought I'd find myself in after fifteen years. An overall.It was brand new, bought for me by my maid about some hours ago but now it was covered in paint. What was supposed to be a lunch break from work became an afternoon painting the children's room. My therapist had said it would be good for me and might make me feel much more excited to have my children around and I must say, after a grueling afternoon, I not only feel proud of my work but I am also excited for Iris to see it and give me her thoughts. The cribs arrived, and I decided to kill two birds with stone by doing them as well, so the surprise would

CHAPTER 121I revved the engine of my sleek sports car as I pulled out of the driveway, leaving behind the storm brewing in the house. The purr of the engine drowned out the turmoil in my mind, focusing my thoughts on the club I was headed to – Fire-Z.Fire-Z was more than just a club; it was an experience, a sanctuary for the elite where the night came alive with pulsating beats and shimmering lights. As I approached, the neon sign bathed the street in a kaleidoscope of colors, beckoning me into its embrace.The line snaked around the block, eager patrons vying for their chance to step into the realm of luxury and indulgence. But not me. With a nod to the bouncer, I bypassed the queue, the velvet rope parting like the Red Sea before me.Inside, the air was thick with anticipation and the scent of expensive perfumes mingled with the heady aroma of alcohol. The dance floor pulsed with bodies moving in sync to the rhythm, while plush booths lined the walls, occupied by the city's elite.

IRISI had made up my mind. It was time to confront Walter and put an end to the chaos he had caused in our lives. With a determined spirit, I picked up my phone and dialed his number, my heart pounding with a mixture of apprehension and resolve."Hello?" Walter's voice crackled through the line, his tone tinged with surprise at the unexpected call."Walter, it's Iris," I said, trying to keep my voice steady despite the nerves fluttering in my stomach. "I need to meet with you."There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line, broken only by the distant sounds of traffic. "Sure, Iris. What's this about?" Walter asked, his curiosity piqued."It's urgent," I replied, choosing my words carefully. "Can you meet me at the park tomorrow at 2 pm?"Walter hesitated for a moment, no doubt weighing his options. But then, with a sigh, he acquiesced. "Alright, I'll be there."I thanked him and hung up the phone, a sense of relief washing over me. The first step had been taken, and now

IRISGiana's voice halted me in my tracks as I stormed away from the park, her tone laced with urgency. Reluctantly, I turned around to face her, my heart still heavy with betrayal and confusion."What do you want, Giana?" I asked, my voice tinged with frustration.Giana approached me with a determined stride, her expression unreadable as she met my gaze. "Iris, please," she said, her voice softening slightly. "There's something you need to know."I hesitated for a moment, wary of her intentions. But something in her eyes urged me to listen, to give her a chance to speak her truth."What is it?" I asked, my curiosity piqued despite myself.Giana glanced over her shoulder at Walter, who stood a few paces away, his expression tense with apprehension. Then, turning back to me, she took a deep breath and began to speak."Walter doesn't know the whole truth about my pregnancy," Giana said, her voice barely above a whisper. "There's something he's been hiding from you."I felt a surge of an

IRISAll feelings of amusement left me as things turned serious. I readjusted in my seat and crossed my legs. “Okay. Let's talk.”Les rose to his feet and offered me his hand. “First of all, I want to show you something.” Curious, I slipped my hand in his and let him take me upstairs. We went past a couple of rooms before we stopped at one and he unlocked it. Once he opened it, he stepped aside for me to go in first. Throwing a curious glance at him, I pushed the door further, went in and my mouth dropped open. One wall was painted with the drawing of an ocean and a red headed mermaid sitting on a rock in the midst of it. Then another wall had mickey mouse characters drawn on them and another had Tom and Jerry smiling at each other. In the midst of the room was a baby crib and I froze in my steps when I saw it. I turned around to find Les watching me intently with his hands shoved in his pockets. He shifted his weight on his feet - a sign I realize indicated his nervousness.“Do y

LESThe fluorescent lights flickered overhead as we sat in the waiting room of the hospital, the scent of antiseptic hanging heavy in the air. Iris fidgeted nervously beside me, her fingers twisting around each other as she glanced around at the sterile walls."You okay, Bunny?" I asked, reaching out to squeeze her hand.She offered me a weak smile. "Yeah, just a little anxious about the scan."I nodded, understanding her apprehension. The thought of seeing our baby for the first time was enough to make anyone jittery. But I was also excited, eager to catch a glimpse of the life growing inside Iris.After what felt like an eternity, the nurse called us in, and we followed her down the hallway to the ultrasound room. Iris settled onto the examination table, her eyes fixed on the monitor as the nurse squirted gel onto her belly.And then, there it was. A tiny flicker on the screen, like a beacon of hope in the darkness. Our baby's heartbeat.Iris let out a shaky breath, her eyes shimmer

IRIS:In a matter of minutes the entire living room was destroyed. I stood still in the carnage as shattered glass covered the ground and furniture became upturned. Les yelled every obscene word known to man. He went on to punch walls till his knuckles cracked and his blood ran red down the walls. Rick ran in with the other security men, confused but with their weapons drawn.“GET OUT!!” Les yelled at them. The men hesitated, especially Rick who looked my way and seemed like he didn't want to leave me with him. “Come Ma'am. Let's go.” He said as he approached me with his hand stretched forward. I had no idea I was vibrating where I stood until I raised my hand and found it shaking violently.The next thing I hear is the click of a gun. I froze just about to touch Rick and turned. Les had a gun pointed at Rick and his eyes were filled with utter madness. “Touch her and you die!” I turned to see Rick with his hands up, retreating backwards. “Sorry ma'am.” He said apologetically befo

LES My baby resumes work today and I am not happy about it. I wish she was the kind of woman who was content being a housewife that loves to cook and wait for her husband to come home. Wait a fucking minute. Why am I looking at Iris through the lens of marriage?I wasn't a big believer in it especially since my father was shitty to my mom and didn't keep his vows. I feel the whole idea of marriage is pretty useless. I am already loyal to Iris and will never look at any other woman. She's mine. Forever. So why do I need to put a ring on it?I continued to wonder about that as I leaned against the doorframe of my closet and watched my Bunny wear a Wonder Woman panty and matching bra color. She turned slightly and my gaze fell on her tummy which was now the size of a small watermelon. I felt something but I couldn’t process what it was. To think that in six months time, this woman whom I am totally obsessed with will give birth to mini mes and mini Iris. I wonder what the babies wi

LES“I see you've lost all your senses posting that girl online.”I rolled my eyes at my brother who was cleaning his pistol while holding a video call with me. The sun had just gone down over the horizon, casting my office in semi darkness while the landscape of New York city came alive with colorful night lights. “I guess you can call me ‘crazy’. Crazy about her.” I smiled as I shoveled some Chinese noodles into my mouth with chopsticks.“What you will be, is sorry if you don't stop.”I stopped chewing and glared at him. My brother didn't look at me. Instead, he continued to clean his weapon as if he didn't just say something disturbing. “Why would you say that?”“Because you're being a fool right now. Posting her for the world to see, especially for our Uncle to see, is like looking into the eye of a python and spitting in its face.”James was right. I was usually a very calculated mind but lately, I have been getting carried away by my affection for Iris and may have unintentio

Chapter 56:IRISOver the next couple of days, I continued to send out applications and even tried writing some pieces but I realized I was experiencing a block. When I couldn't make headway, I sat down in front of a TV and watched some cartoons. It was my coping mechanism back at Massimo's house and it's starting to be my coping mechanism now. Cartoons weren't always at Les' place either. I was surprised when one day I received a delivery signed to me and when I opened it, I discovered Les had bought all variations of cartoons for me to watch. Along with some T-shirts with cartoon characters on them. Les continued to leave pleasant surprises for me while I carried my one unpleasant surprise inside my body and whenever talk about Taylor came up, he refused to talk about it and everyday I became more and more depressed.If I wasn't writing, I was also video calling my Dad or Hilda. Now that I had a working phone, I was able to access my old social media profiles. I came across a lo

IRIS“Can we still go about our day while we ruminate on this?” Les asked and I considered his request reasonable. “Sure.”I changed into one of the dresses he got me, and then we went downstairs to have brunch. All through, we ate in silence, and I hated it. I hated that I spoiled the mood between us and made it awkward with the topic of a child. After our brunch, Les took me on a tour of his mansion, and I was able to learn a few more things about him. Les was an artist who painted in his pastime, and I wondered how he was able to do that and still be an underground fighter during his teen years. I saw all the championship belts he had won and heard all the stories behind them. Then he showed me his car collections, the grounds which had a stable and two horses. By the time we were done that day, it was late evening, and we weren’t able to go shopping any more, but I didn’t mind. Getting to see a new side of him was refreshing. I got to learn that Les The Beast wasn’t really his

IRISA cold shiver went through me as my father’s words sank in. “Excuse me?!” “Iris-” My father started to speak, but I raised a hand to cut him short.“So I was a mistake?”My father looked horrified for a second before he closed the distance between us. “No, no, no, no.” he said, coming to sit beside me. “You were never a mistake, Iris, and I am glad your mother chose to keep you.”“What if she hadn’t?” I sniffled and wiped a tear from my eye. “Would you have regretted it?”My father sighed. “I honestly don’t know. All I know is that I am happy she didn’t listen to me. Look at me.” He said, taking my hands in his, which in turn made me face him. “You are the best thing that has ever happened to me since your mother. You are not a mistake, and you never were. I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to be a good father to you and give you the resources that you needed. I was fresh out of high school, inheriting a run-down port left behind by a drunken father. You can understand how having
