55: Part 2
"Please don't misunderstand my intentions about Keith. Hear me out."
"What other reason could be there for you to send him away? You were jealous and wanted him gone because you thought we liked each other, didn't you?" I was still not looking at him. I couldn't. I'd forget the whole reason why I was mad at him if I risked a glance into those captivating eyes.
"I'm not going to lie to you. It was one of the reasons albeit a small one. You remember the day we went to buy a birthday present for him and you scolded me for disrespecting him? I was feeling really guilty about it and I realized I was being immature and I didn't want you to think of me like that because I really am not like that. So I observed him and he's a good person. He's also very talented and it frustrated me because he was just letting his talent go to waste here, just because of money. He has so much potential and so many things to learn. Staying here was just a hindrance to his growth. I didn't want

At first I thought I was just imagining her, like I had last night. I even blinked a couple of times but she was still there, with the same expression of heartbreak and betrayal that she had last night in my imagination.It was Heather.I tried to say something but no sound came from my mouth. She was furious and her eyes were quickly welling up with tears."What's wrong?" Ethan asked, caressing my cheek. I didn't answer him and he followed my line of sight."H-Heather," he stuttered. "What're you doing here?"Her lower lip trembled. "How could you?"I didn't know to whom the question was directed to because she kept flitting her gaze from him to me."You're my best friend," she whispered and then the tears began to fall from her eyes. "How could you do this to me? How could you so easily betray me?"Ethan strode towards her and grabbed her arm. "Calm down."She pushed him away roughly. "I won't calm down! Do you have an

"Why?" I asked with a frown. Her reaction had scared me.She dropped her expression and smiled as if she hadn't looked beyond stressed just seconds ago. "Its just that she's very tired. We had a very fun night and she must already be sleeping. Let's not disturb her.""Oh," I sat back down. "Okay."Heather kept looking between us and then bent down to whisper something in my ear."We need to talk about you and Ethan but not now, he'll get suspicious. I'll come back again sometime today, maybe in the afternoon and we'll talk about what's going on between you two. Be prepared because I'm going to interrogate you as if you're a criminal."I gulped when she pulled away. Of course we needed to have a talk about what was going on between Ethan and I but even I didn't know what it was. I was sure Heather was going to ask if I was just pretending to like him for his money. I knew she was going to be harsh on me. But I didn't blame her. She was just protecti

Around midnight I heard a knock on my bedroom door. At first I thought I had just imagined it but then it came again and for a few seconds I was flooded with thoughts of a ghost doing that because everyone was sleeping right now and it was dark and quiet around so it did spook me out.I got out of bed and slowly twisted the door knob open, mimicking the way the actors in horror movies do because sometimes I get this sick enjoyment in imagining myself in that role, doing all the things I scream at the actors to not do.I saw a figure right in front of me when I opened the door. In the dark I couldn't see his face but I instantly knew it was Ethan. I breathed a sigh of relief."Ethan, what're you doing here?"He didn't say anything and

It was lunchtime now and I was sitting on the couch. Ethan was going to come home for lunch anytime now and I was dreading what I was about to do.I didn't really want to do it this way but the only way Ethan would be convinced is if he saw it for himself.When he did walk in, I immediately sprang into action. I grabbed Vince's hand and laughed at what he was telling me.I had called him right after Ethan had left and we decided to go out for lunch. He was going to pick me up but I told him to wait for a bit so that Ethan would see me with him. Of course I didn't tell him the reason."We should go now. I'm hungry." I told Vince and he agreed.We began to move out but met Ethan halfwa

Vince was very fast when it came to planning parties. Literally the next day I got a call from him saying that the party was tonight at eight. Everyone who was between eighteen to thirty years of age was invited.I was told that roughly a hundred and fifty people were invited. That was just how many people Vince knew. Amelia, Heather, Olivia, Tristan, Ethan were the only people I knew that were invited.Rachel and Antonio couldn't make it because they were overseas. Antonio had gone to visit his supermodel girlfriend, Audrey Wave. Rachel was busy travelling across the globe to advertise and promote her new clothing line.Thank God it was a masquerade party. I didn't even want to think about what would've happened if all the people who were invited to the party recognized me. I would make sure to pick a mask which covered most of my face to be extra safe.I hadn't seen Olivia much since she returned from her sleepover with Heather. Something was definitely

Suddenly, he was ripped away from me and it took me a while to process what just happened.I saw Ethan between us, grabbing at his collar while Vince smirked at him."Don't even think about it." He said and shoved him back."What's going on?" Someone asked."Isn't he dating Heather? What is he doing?" I heard someone else whisper.I heard murmurs of confusion among the crowd and Heather came into view. She latched her hand on his arm."Ethan!" She reproved.Ethan let go of Vince's collar and shook her hand off of him.He grabbed my hand and led me away from the crowd. I didn't resist because I didn't want him to create a scene in front of the others because that would most probably reveal the true nature of his and Heather's relationship.I didn't expect him to react like that. I thought that seeing me with Vince would make him give up on me and that he would quietly move on from me but he decided to intervene, that too

I smiled at Ethan who was right next to me. I reached over and brushed some hair out of his face and let my fingers trail over his face. I traced the outlines of his cheeks, his perfect nose and soft lips that I wanted to kiss so I reached over and pressed my lips to his for a second.I continued to watch him as he slept deeply and peacefully. The sheets were tangled up between us, his naked chest half on display and half hidden behind it.I extended my hand towards his face again and placed my palm against his cheek."I'm sorry I'm hurting you. But I seem to have no choice." I whispered to him, knowing he won't be able to hear me. "Will you forgive me?" I caressed his cheek, feeling the prickles on my palm where his beard rubbed against my skin. "I wish we were normal people and I could've met you under different circumstances when things weren't so hard. I want to like you freely."I closed my eyes feeling sleep taking over me but willed my eyes to open
The Billionaire's Unauthentic Daughter 59: Part 2
We watched a few movies after which I told her to stay for lunch and she agreed. We spent the afternoon in my bed just talking about our lives and cracking a few jokes until we ran out of topics to talk about at which time she decided she should get home.So I didn't get much out of Amelia as she was as clueless about what the matter was with Olivia and Heather as I was. I didn't want to talk to Heather about this or about anything else really. So I had to confront Olivia again. I was starting to get tired of this secrecy between the two girls and I was determined to know what it was about.So as soon as I figured out that it was safe to approach Olivia in the evening, a little before dinnertime, I took the opportunity of having no one around to disturb us and asked her about it.I knocked on her door. It was like she had made a permanent place in the guestroom because I rarely saw her outside apart from the time when we all had to gather to eat."Come in
