The Billionaire’s Unexpected Bride Chapter 84
RevelationsAdrian's POVWhat could have made her have the thoughts of eating at the company's cafeteria?It was totally weird and uncalled for. Our relationship for the past few days had been distant, and it stunned me when she brought a tray of food to my office.It was strange, and my years of working as a CEO with many enemies trying to kill me ignited my distrust, so I decided not to touch the food. She seemed upset, but I pretended to not see it.The dinner was just a chance to at least get back to the way we used to be. As for the ball, it was an invitation I received late, but it was from someone of utmost importance to me; that was why I accepted. I didn't even bother giving her room to argue or decline.She was legally my wife, and I couldn't afford to go with any other woman for the sake of peace and my reputation.A knock on the door interrupted my thoughts. Luisa surprisingly stood up to get the door, but she scoffed and walked back to her seat. I finally saw Miguel walk

TensionValerie's POV"Hello, Bestie" I greeted, and her pupils dilated, her face etched with horror.She opened her mouth to speak, but no words came out."I know you're happy to see me. Can I come in?" I asked, my smile broadening."Why are you here?" She finally managed to utter, her breath hitched.My smile broadened. "To see you, of course. How long has it been? Five years?"Alicia inhaled deeply. "There's nothing between us. Our friendship ended the day you....""Come on, Alicia. I thought you were always ready to forgive" I cut her off, my voice full of mockery. "I'm sure we can both settle our differences and go back to how we used to be.""Not happening" Alicia snapped. "Leave my house."I laughed. "Nah... Not when I haven't seen your beloved husband and your son yet."I chuckled, then added. "I'm surprised you got married before me. Remember we both agreed to be each other's bridesmaid. What happened to that promise?"Alicia inhaled deeply, tightening her eyelids. "Please an

Wrong timingLuisa's POVA few minutes since Miguel left, and George hadn't arrived yet. My heart was beating hard against my chest as I anticipated his arrival. It was never in my plan to meet with him while Adrian was present. I just hoped he wasn't the mischievous type.Soon enough, a knock on the door broke the silence. The visitor didn't wait to be invited and walked in."Hey, brother. You called" A sarcastic voice resonated through the air as George walked in with a weird smile on his lips.Our eyes met for a moment before I looked away."You have just one chance before you lose what your grandfather gave to you" Adrian stated threateningly.The tension between them was palpable, and I was prompted to leave, but George just had to draw me into their conversation."I see you have a new secretary" He mentioned, giving me a wink.I could tell Adrian was furious, but his control was just too good."It's none of your business, George. That's not what I called you here for" He stated

I mean, why Diego of all people?The moment I got out of the car, and walked over to Adrian's side, I met our driver having a conversation with the annoying being. The argument seemed to be heating up, but Adrian wasn't moved one bit."You have to pay for damages or get ready to face the consequences" I heard the driver say with a sharp undertone laced with a warning, but Diego wasn't willing to back down.I doubted he knew who the car owner was."Pay for damages? Never!!" He snarled. "Why don't you go ahead and tell your so-called boss to get the hell out of here? Get your garbage car off the road.""Are you talking to me?" Adrian finally voiced out, his voice stern.Diego's head snapped to our spot, his eyes widened in shock, and his mouth agape.Good for you, I scoffed inwardly, anticipating what could happen next."Sir... Sir, I... I didn't know it was you" Diego stu

The NightmareLuisa's POV"You never listen to me" Christina yelled, her voice echoing off the water and her face etched with anger. "You always think you're right."I stood by the poolside, the dim light staring down at my skin as I stared at my beloved sister's angry face."Aren't you going to say anything?" She continued, her tone harsh and unrestrained. "You're one of the most sought-after TV personalities and models in the entertainment industry. Tell me what's stopping you from helping me climb the ranks. I can move up easily with you as my sister."It seemed my silence tipped her off. A mix of guilt and regret surged through my body, but my decision was final."I'm sorry, Christina, but if you want to make it in the entertainment industry, you'll have to work for it yourself; just like I did" I declared, taking a step towards her. "Let's not fight over this."I tried to reach out to her, but she swatted my hands away and took several steps backward."You're lying, Luisa" She sp

Caught in the actLuisa's POVI met a young lady sitting behind the receptionist's desk by the time I arrived at the company. She wasn't the same person I often see."Welcome, young lady. How can I help you?" She asked with a smile, her tone polite and firm."Is Mr. Sanchez in? I came to see him" I replied.She sized me up and inquired. "Do you have an appointment with him or is he expecting you?""No, he isn't" I replied, taking a deep breath. "You know, this isn't the first time I'm coming here to see him. I'm his fiancee."Her mouth widened in disbelief as she stared at me in shock."You're Luisa Fernanda, the model and TV personality everyone's talking about" She gasped in shock, giggling in excitement. "I'm so sorry. I didn't recognize you because of your sunglasses. You're welcome... We....""Can I see him now?" I asked, cutting her off.She nodded her head vigorously. "Definitely. I'm sorry for wasting your time. I'm sure you know where his office is or would you like me to sho

Flash MarriageAdrian's POV"Who's that lady running on the highway? Doesn't she know she could get hit? Thankfully, the traffic light turned red" My driver and personal assistant blabbered on and on as we waited for other vehicles to move.I exhaled heavily, fed up with hearing his voice. If it wasn't for my main driver who took a sick leave, the blabbermouth wouldn't be here disrupting my peace of mind."Shut up, Miguel" I ordered, adjusting the business magazine in my hands. "Eyes on the road.""I'm sorry, Sir, but she looks like a damsel in distress" Miguel continued.I decided to see the lady that got him running his mouth, only to be astonished by the sight. She was indeed a damsel in distress. Compared to those ladies who looked ugly when they cried, she seemed prettier."Park the car, Miguel" I demanded, feeling the need to help her."Huh... Why?" Miguel questioned, his face etched with confusion.I snorted. "You don't want her dying, do you?""No, I don't" He shook his head.

RegretLuisa's POV"What in heaven's name did I do to myself?" I gasped in bewilderment, running my fingers through my long brown hair.It's been hours since that stranger dropped me off, and I haven't stopped staring at the marriage certificate in my hand.I desperately felt the urge to hit my head against a wall or smash it against a stone as memories of my actions from the roadside to the courthouse resurfaced. Stupid was an understatement of how I felt."Gosh, I can't believe I got married to a stranger!" I exclaimed, and pulled my hair out, gritting my teeth in pain.I couldn't even recall the man's name nor could I spare a second to check the marriage certificate. I knew it was written in it, but I just didn't care."To hell with you, Diego, and your slutty assistant" I cursed and almost bit my tongue.That traitor was the reason why I was in this mess in the first place. Still, I couldn't believe I lost my cool. Now, what I needed to worry about was how to get out of this dile

Dinner InvitationLuisa's POV"Hello, there" I heard him say, making me halt. "You look familiar. Have I seen you anywhere around here before?"I froze for a moment, processing the whole thing. From his words, he only recognized me from seeing my face around.I slowly turned with a perfunctory smile on my face. The man was undeniably handsome with facial features that almost resembled Adrian. Funnily, I hadn't seen anyone who could beat Adrian's gorgeousness."Hello, sir" I greeted shyly. "I'm the CEO's temporary secretary."His brows furrowed slightly. "Oh... Is that so?"I nodded affirmatively, then his lips curved into a smirk. "Well, my name is George. Nice to meet you... Huh..""Luisa" I answered coyly."Nice to meet you, Mr. George" I added, my voice barely audible.A throaty chuckle escaped his lips. "I'm surprised my brother got himself a new secretary; a hot one at that. I thought the other one was on leave."I blushed hard. "It's just for a while. That's why I said temporary

Valerie's POV"Ma'am, I'm surprised you haven't done anything about that woman yet" Jude mentioned, belching after emptying his glass of whiskey."I thought you already knew me well enough," I said, my tone laced with disappointment. "I don't strike while the iron is still hot like they always say. I strike when they least expect it."My smile broadened as I added. "I want them to be comfortable in the meantime. They would be so shocked when I take action."Jude belched again. " Haha... Nice one, ma'am. We should celebrate our victory in advance."He tried to grab the almost emptied bottle of whiskey, but I was faster than him."You're drunk, Jude. You've had enough" I stated, eyeing him disgustingly. "I'm not spending the night with a wasted man.""I'm not so sure about that. You know pretty well that I'm more active like this" Jude bragged foolishly. "We should get going. The bar is almost empty."I looked around and confirmed his words. Last time, the bartender had called the secur

ManipulationGeorge's POVA few days ago"Tch.. that bitch" I cursed silently, pacing back and forth in my office. "How could she let herself get caught like that?"Though I understood that the influence of the aphrodisiac was what led to her sleeping with a guard, I still thought she was disgusting anytime I recalled the scene. Still, I was a bit guilty.Elizabeth had to face the repercussions of the evil plan I instigated myself. Thankfully, Grandfather cared about the family's reputation, or I would have been in jail right now. Regardless, the whip was much worse.Thinking about it reminded me of the excruciating pain I had to endure. I could feel my fragile back ache from the beating. I didn't dare stand in front of a mirror to check the gruesome scars left on it.Instantly, I froze in my steps. What if she told the police I was involved? What if it gets to the masses and they insist I appear in court and face trial?No way... I needed to shut her up.Yes.The earlier the better.

A fightLuisa's POV"Who's Rachael Lopez?" I questioned curiously.Two pairs of eyes rested on me. The tension between the two men was so obvious, making me ponder more on what exactly was happening. Something fishy was going on."Er.. Luisa, there's a mini kitchen on your way out of here, by the right" Adrian stated. "Go get me a cup of coffee; black and less sugar."I was taken by surprise. "Won't people see me?""This floor is safe. Not many people work around here" Miguel replied hastily.I had the urge to probe, but intruding would be improper, so I left. Miguel didn't waste time slamming the door in my face while mouthing an apology."Ugh... Why are all businessmen secretive?" I scoffed silently in disgust and turned to leave.I followed Adrian's direction and made my way to the kitchen. The interior designs were advanced compared to a normal kitchen. Most things done by humans have already been replaced by technological devices. It was extraordinary.I walked to the coffee make

I don't care about that spoilt brat you call a daughter; one more night in this cell and the company will crumble... I'm pretty sure you don't want to go back to the slum you came from."I shuddered, hearing his words. "But.. but the lawyer isn't responding" I stuttered, avoiding his disdainful eyes.Louis snorted. "Who cares? Lawyers aren't the only ones who can help. Find someone else. You can bribe the police officers."I swallowed hard. "But we need a huge amount of money for that. The company can't bear any outrageous cost at the moment. Our private accounts have also been frozen.""What?!" Louis spat in disbelief.
