Chapter 5_ The Billionaire's Son Chose Me!

Arya felt the air around her cease as she stared into his soulless eyes.. How did things turn so dramatic?

Cole cleared his throat and took a step forward to Kyle..

"Mr Anderson.. I don't think this is right, you were right when you said kids say the craziest things.. I think your son is a little bit.. umm..

"Crazy?!" Ray interjected...

Kyle's eyes narrowed down at the lady in front of him, so she was the lady his little boy has been comparing him to?..

Vanessa heart slammed against her ribcage, her worst fears came through.. this little punk has done the worst.. And everyone in the city knew Mr Kyle Anderson never goes back on his word..

"Kyle I think Ray might be hungry that's why he's spurting out nonsense.. I'll get him something to eat"

Ray casted Vanessa a hateful gaze, the last thing he wanted was to look at her face..

"I never told you that I was hungry, and even if I was hungry only Arya will feed me"

Kyle exhaled loudly, he took a glance at his wrist watch.. the party had barely started and a lot of drama was already taking place..

"Mr Anderson, Arya and I are about to get married please don't do this because of a kid's words" Cole pleaded..

Kyle rested his gaze briefly at Arya's pale face, if it were to be any other lady they'll be so elated about the news.. but here she was sulking..

"Then break up"

His short and fast response made everyone gasp out in shock, Arya who was still in shock averted her gaze to Kyle..

"This is absurd Mr Anderson! I'm about to get married!"

Ray's eyes teared up and before anyone could notice, his shrills pierced through their ears..

"I want you Arya!! or else I'll run very far away!"

Ray turned around and sprinted out of the room wailing loudly..

Kyle cursed out and pulled out his phone "Block the exits! Ray just ran out"

The grip on his phone tightened when he turned back to Arya.. without any notice he grabbed her arm leading her out of the hall...

The guests were awed at the drama that just took place..

Kyle left her out of the hall while she struggled to feed herself from his grip.. The guards saw their master approaching the car but this time with a different lady..

They bowed and one of them hurriedly opened the backseat door...

"let me go!"

Arya struggled to free herself from his grip but her strength was no match for his..

He pushed her gently into the car and got in also..

Arya moved closed to the other door to unlock it.. but damn! who was she kidding it was locked!

Cole rushed to the car that was about to leave the venue, he hurried to the windshield knocking on it..

Kyle rolled down the glass, his eyes showed anger and impatience..

"This isn't right Mr Anderson! she is my fiancee! only I can get married to her and no one else! let her go..."

A devilish smirk appeared on Kyle's thin lips, he glanced briefly at the lady in the car and then back to Cole..

"You might be her fiancee now, but by tomorrow she'll become my wife! Mrs Anderson!"

Cole's face froze as the glass rolled up concealing Kyle's evil smile... this night turned out to be his worst nightmare..

.

.

Arya gasped when the car came to a halt in front of her house..

Kyle's phone rang out, on seeing the caller id he answered it immediately..

"Good! send him back home"

"Get your things ready by tomorrow.. I'll send a driver to get you" Karl said in an indifferent voice without looking at her..

"And what if I run away?"

Kyle's eyes darkened, in the next instance he grabbed her chin almost crushing it with his hands..

"I'll make sure I hunt you down..and when I do I'll make you taste and feel hell!"

Arya went numb for a while, his threat got into her bones..

He released his grip on her and stared ahead "I didn't choose you.. my son did, don't act too highly of yourself, you're the last woman I would ever look at"

Arya unlocked the door and bolted out of the car before she dies of a heart attack..

She watched the car slowly moving away from her sight before it vanished completely into the night..

Meanwhile Vivian creased her brow as she watched her step sister breathing heavily.. she knew that car didn't belong to Cole.. so who dropped Arya off?

She closed her curtains and headed out of her room, these days Arya seemed to be hiding something away from she and her mum..

Vivian caught up with Arya who was having a glass of water in the kitchen..

She rested her side against the corridor while staring at her polished nails..

"Just like I suspected you're cheating on your fiance how shameless"

Arya turned a deaf ear to Vivian, the lady thing she wanted now was to get into a fight with her stepsister.. this night was already enough for her..

"I'm talking to you Arya!" Vivian barked raising her voice a little..

Arya harshly placed down the glass cup and picked up a kitchen knife from it's rack, she pointed it at Vivian..

"If you say one more word.. I'll slit your throat! who do you think you are to judge my character?"

Vivian's eyes widened when she saw the knife pointed to her neck...

"Arghhh... mum!! help!!"

Joyce hurried out of her room when she heard her daughter scream, she traced her voice to the kitchen and the view in front of her surprised her..

"Arya! have you lost your mind?!"

Arya scoffed and dropped the knife on the floor, she released a deep breath and moved away from the kitchen to the corridor..

Vivian gasped holding her neck "Mum I think I'm gonna die.. I told you that she was a witch but you never listened"

Arya rolled her eyes, Vivian was just being dramatic as always..

"Don't speak about death! you're not even injured!"

.

.

All throughout the night Arya kept on turning and tossing on her bed, she was scared of what tomorrow would become..

Ray was a cute kid no denial, but his demand was too much..

Her phone rang out startling her a bit, she reached for it on her drawer and answered it immediately seeing that it was Cole..

"Arya! are you alright? did he hurt you? please talk to me" Cole's worried voice came...

Arya sighed, she couldn't believe her relationship with Cole was about to be broken and she didn't have a say in it..

"I'm alright Cole, I'll talk to you in the morning please get some rest I'm really tired goodnight" Without waiting for his reply she ended the call..

Right now she needed enough time to think about her next move..

.

.

Arya laid on her bed, her breathing was deep and even, her face relaxed in sleep.

The sunlight filtering through the curtains cast a warm glow over her room, illuminating the various knick-knacks and photos that lined the walls.

The soft sounds of the city outside filled the air, but did not disturb her slumber.

Her bed was covered in a cozy quilt, and her pillows were plump and inviting.

A book lay open on her nightstand, marking the spot where she had drifted off to sleep the night before.

The room was a sanctuary, a place where she could rest and recharge..

A hurried knock came on her door, she stirred and opened her eyes slowly..

"Arya! are you in there?"

Arya creased her brows, that sounded like Chloe.. she snapped her head to the clock..

"Goodness!"

She hurried out of her bed and rushed towards the door... she opened it and dashed back to her wardrobe..

Chloe walked in and folded her arm "Arya! we have a lot to talk about"

Arya's back stiffened, it turns out Chloe must have known what happened last night at Mr Anderson's birthday celebration..

She was so sure that all the news channels must be talking about last night's incident..

"I know Chloe.. believe me it wasn't my doings okay? Mr Anderson turned out to be a very bitter man.."

Chloe creased her brows, she wondered what her friend was talking about but since Arya brought up Mr Anderson she became piqued..

"You had an encounter with the billionaire?" Chloe asked in shock..

"The Billionaire's Son Chose Me! to be his mum"

Chloe's eyes grew larger as the seconds passed by before she screamed out..

"What?! you mean little Ray?"

"I thought you knew this"

"well I....

The sound of a car was heard, Arya and Chloe exchanged brief glances before hurrying to the window..

They saw two cars parked right in front of the building, one car was eye catching while the other was a bit too old..

Arya recognized the old car to be Cole's car.. and the other?

"Wow Arya.. did Cole get you a new car?" Chloe screamed out in excitement and bolted out of the room..

.

.

Chloe's feets froze on the spot when she saw the people present in the small living room..

Her eyes fell on Cole who was held back by some men in black..

"Arya! come quickly"

Arya dashed down from the stairs when she heard her name, she was also as surprised as Chloe..

"Cole? what do you want from him? let him go!"

One of the bodyguards walked close enough to her with a small bow.."Good morning young miss, Mr Anderson sent us to you"

"I gave him my reply last night and I won't go anywhere with you!"

The bodyguard gave a small nod to her and moved back..

"You leave us with no other choice ma'am"

Before Arya could understand what was going on, she was hoisted over his shoulder with ease..

"Let her go!" Cole barked out struggling with the guards holding him down only to be thrashed severely..
