The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement Payback
Chapter 36 Anna I sat hunched over my cup of coffee, trying to think of a way out of the mess I was in. I had been crying since yesterday and my eyes were swollen. A week ago when I had pictured the return flight from Honolulu to Dallas I had smiled, thinking how wonderful it would be flying home from my honeymoon with the man I loved by my side. But yesterday, I had flown home alone. I had called Tony repeatedly after he had left me crying in the hotel but it had gone straight to voicemail. I tried contacting him on social media and found out he had blocked me. I was out of my mind with worry. Was he truly going to divorce me? Had he told everyone what had happened? Where was he? And most importantly, how did he find out? Someone had told him I had faked my pregnancy, but how did they know? I hadn’t told anyone one. It was my secret alone. So how had the person found out? And who was it? Not having answers to these questions was torture. If he did carry out his threat t

Chapter 37 Anna It wasn’t Tony but his friend Chance. I didn’t recognize the girl. “Anna!” He grabbed a pillow from the bed and held it against his groin. The girl covered hers with her hands. “Chance what are you doing here?” I asked, glad it wasn’t Tony. “I live here now. Tony didn’t tell you?” “No he didn’t. When did you move in?” “Last week, the day after your wedding. Tony and I had discussed it before. He told me you guys would be getting your own place and I could have this one. When he came over yesterday he-” “Wait, Tony was here yesterday? When?” “Yesterday evening. He came to pick the last of his stuff.” “Any idea where he went?” “No. He didn’t talk much, seemed upset. He just said he would be back later to get his car.” He frowned. “Is everything okay?” “Yes fine. Never mind.” I turned to go. “Can I have the key? Since you guys have moved out and this is now my flat.” Chance asked shyly. Rolling my eyes I tossed him the key and left. I stood o

Chapter 38 Kevin “Are they okay?” Janet asked Fran, moving away from me. I cursed silently thinking of the passionate moment we had been about to have. “Yes they are fine. Anna told me it was just a fender bender.” Fran replied. “I will call her right away.” Janet said. I was surprised by the concern in her voice. If it were me, I won’t be bothered about what happened to the two people who had betrayed me. They could drive off a cliff for all I care. But I could see she really cared for her sister. “I better get going.” I interrupted them. “I will call you later Jan.” “Sure. Bye.” I sat in my car trying to control the desire running through me as I remembered the feel of her skin and the look in her eyes. Damn! Keeping this whole thing strictly business was going to be almost impossible. And now Jason Kale was here.He was up to no good, I knew it. I frowned remembering our history. We had been friends but now he hated me, and for good reason. I drove to Brian’s pl

Chapter 39 Janet There was a huge bouquet of roses on my desk when I came into the office on Monday morning. “They were delivered thirty minutes ago.” Dani explained. By Kevin, I thought. As if reading my mind, my phone rang. “Hey, are you at work?” Kevin asked me. “Yeah, just came in to see roses on my desk. Any idea where they came from?” “Take a guess.” I laughed and shut the door. “Is this part of the deal? I thought we only showed love in public?” “Yeah it is. People in your office will see it and know how romantic our relationship is. And I did promise you gifts.” “Well thanks. I like it.” “Any word from Breed?” I sighed as I sat down. “ No. Nothing on Lois yet.” “Maybe you were wrong. Maybe she isn’t cheating.” “No. I know what I saw.” “Well if she is, Breed will find out. He is good. How about lunch?” “Sure.” “See you later.” I hung up smiling. Lunch with Aunt Viv yesterday had been great. Watching her and Kevin together was so sweet . And t

Chapter 40 Janet I stared at Dani. “Second chance?” I asked. “Yes. Sending your ex a bouquet of daisies means you want to get back with them.” “I have never heard of that. How did you know?” She laughed. “My mom is a florist. She owns a shop in the middle of town. I used to help out sometimes. I learnt all about the different meaning of flowers.” “But it doesn’t have to be wanting a second chance right? Daisies can be sent for other reasons, can’t they?” “Sure. But most times people send flowers that have a meaning.” “I wonder which of my ex’s want to come back. Not that I am going to let it happen.” I smiled. Dani shrugged. “Well I’m sure you will know soon enough.” She returned to her desk and I placed the daisies near the roses, still wondering who it could be. Definitely not Tony. Maybe Evan? Last I heard of the loser, he and Alex were fighting over child support. They had married after high school because she has gotten pregnant, then divorced when she caugh

Chapter 41 Anna “Welcome back honey.” Dad beamed when I entered his office that afternoon. “ How are you doing?” “Great. Thanks dad.” “Are you okay?” He asked looking at me with concern. “I am fine. Just a little tired from a lot of unpacking yesterday.” “Take it easy honey, stress isn’t good for the baby.” I flinched, then tried to smile as I noticed dad looking at me. “Are you sure you are okay? Do you want to take a break till the baby is born?” He asked. “No. I am okay dad.” “And Tony How is he doing?” “Fine. Everything is fine.” Thankfully Janet came in. After the brief meeting I left for my office. There I buried my face in my hands, trying to think a solution to my problems. Everyone thought I was pregnant but I wasn’t, and now Tony had refused to speak or even look at me, I would never get pregnant for him. It was clear he had no plan to forgive me. Was he truly going to divorce me and get back with Janet? He had been drunk when he'd said it but the

Chapter 42 Janet I watched Anna go. I was shocked and hurt by her accusation. Why would she think I was trying to get back with Tony? I had told her I respected their marriage, so what was her problem? And why was Tony sending me these gifts anyway? What was he up to? I was still upset as I entered the building. I thought about going to Anna’s office to try and explain to her that I had no interest in he husband, but what if she caused a scene? Dad would hate that. I changed my mind and went straight to my office. My phone rang as I entered. I frowned as caller ID told me it was Tony. “Hey Jan.” He said. “What do you want Tony?” I asked harshly. “Easy. Did you like the gifts I sent you yesterday?” “What are you up to Tony? You are married to Anna. Whatever game you are playing I am not interested.” “I am not playing any game. Let’s have lunch this afternoon. I need to talk to you. It’s important.” “Forget it! I don’t want to hear it. You are my brother in-law. Keep i

The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement This Is For Real
Chapter 155JanetIt was nearly 4pm when I finally closed my laptop and leaned back in my chair. I massaged my neck gently to ease the tension.It had been a very busy day. I had spent it running from one meeting to another and answering phone call after phone call.Everything had fallen on me as the only Benson in the company right now. The newly wedded couples were away on their honeymoon and weren’t expected back till the end of next week. Which meant I had a lot more stressful days ahead. But I didn’t mind. The thought of Dad enjoying his honeymoon because he knew I was here to handle any problem was all the motivation I needed.I yawned and stretched, then decided to call them and see how they were doing. I called Anna first but she didn’t pick up. But from the pictures she had posted on social media this afternoon I knew she and Justin were having a great time in Florida. I called my Dad."Hey Dad!"“Hey honey, how are you doing over there?” Dad asked."Great and yo
The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement Busy Bee
Chapter 154 Janet The room was filled with people. My family, friends, coworkers, and company staff were all there. A banner with, Welcome Home Janet, was hanging on the wall. “Welcome home sweetheart.” Fran, who was standing besides me, said hugging me. “You knew about this?” I asked Kevin who stood behind her. He smiled mischievously and shrugged. I was really surprised and pleased. The last thing I had expected was a welcome home party with so many people turning up. I walked towards the crowd of people and received a lot of hugs and kisses. “We were so worried about you Miss Benson. I am happy you are alright.” My secretary Dani said. “Thanks Dani. I am happy to be back.” Someone handed me a glass of champagne and I sat on the couch with Kevin, watching the people who had come to celebrate my homecoming. “Okay Jan,” Gina said sitting on the arm on my chair. “ I want the whole story. Everything. How did you fall into the hands of those psycho?” “
The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement Surprise!
Chapter 153 Janet I was brushing my hair when Kevin walked in. “Hey beautiful! Wow you are ready so soon?” He asked. “Yeah. I can’t wait to get out of here.” He laughed. “ Why the rush?” “Are you even asking? I have been here for a week. It is a miracle I am still sane. You know I hate hospitals.” I said. “Sorry but the doctor wants to keep you here a week more.” He said. The look on my face made him explode with laughter. “Joking babe, I am here to take you home.” He walked over to me and kissed me. “I still can’t believe that nightmare was just a week ago.” He said gently. I couldn’t believe it, but it was. A week ago I had escaped from Lois and had been airlifted to a hospital in Dallas. I had awaken from hours of unconsciousness, to find Dad, Fran, Anna and Justin around me. “She is awake!” “Honey are you okay?” “Jan thank God.” “We were so worried-“ Their had all been talking at once and struggling to hug me. I watched then tongue tied, not sure
The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement Escape Plan
Chapter 152 Janet “Hungry?” Lois asked me, waving a chicken wing in my face. I glared at her. There were hundreds of choice names I would have liked to call her but the gag in my mouth stopped me. We were in a motel, even more dirty and rundown than the previous one. I was sitting on the bed tied up and gagged. Lois sat on the only chair eating chicken and drinking soda. The greedy bitch hadn’t given me any food or water since we had arrived the evening before, and it was now well past midday. After she had knocked Jason out, she had dragged me from the bed and put a jacket around my shoulders. “Make any wrong move,” she said pointing the gun at me. “ And you are history.” We walked out of the room side by side, the gun sticking on my ribs. The motel was almost deserted. She unlocked the car and pushed me into the back seat then got behind the wheel. She made a call to the cops telling them to hurry to the motel because, Janet Benson and her kidnappers were in room 1
The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement To Pay Or Not To Pay
Chapter 151 Kevin I was awaken from a restless sleep by my ringing phone. It was a week since Jan had gone missing and it had been a week of hell for her loved ones. Her kidnappers hadn’t called again and we weren’t sure why. It would have been easier if they just made a ransom demand. We would have happily paid it. As usual I had been with the Benson’s all afternoon hoping for news, but there was non, not even from Breed. I had stayed up till after midnight thinking what to do, before falling asleep on my couch. I groaned and fumbled for my phone on the coffee table. “Hello?” I mumbled. “Kev? It’s me. I have got news. They’ve found Jason.” I jumped up immediately. “Where?” “The cops got an anonymous tip that led them to a motel outside of town. They found him unconscious in a room. Someone had knocked him out.” “And Jan?” “No sign of her or Lois. The desk clerk said a woman paid for the room a couple of days ago, which was the same day the cops raided the house w
The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement Double Cross
Chapter 150 Janet “Couldn’t you just make the ransom demand already” Jason asked. “ What are we waiting for anyway?” Lois, who sat by the small desk eating a hamburger, glared at him. “The longer we wait, the riskier it becomes. Make the demand, get the money and let us fly to Canada like agreed.” He continued. “Will you shut the fuck up!” She said angrily. “ I don’t need your advice! You have done enough, so shut the fuck up!” “It’s not my fault everything isn’t going according to plan.” He said. “Really?” Lois said controlling her anger. “ So whose fault is it?” Jason looked uncomfortable. “Tell me Jason, whose fault is it? Who stupidly used their phone to make a call that was traced and nearly led to our capture, hmm? Whose idiocy caused our plans to be derailed? You! You had three jobs, shut up, listen, and obey my instructions. But no, you had to be a dumbass and now look.” “All I did was call Watson to annoy him a little. You called Benson didn’t you?” Jason
The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement Just Missed Them
Chapter 149 Kevin Day four, and still no sign of Jan. To be fair the cops were doing all they could. The day after Jan went missing her car had been found abandoned in a supermarket parking lot. The cops had combed the area but no sign of her. We had given them the footage from Gabhill’s carpark and they had gotten to work. Pictures of Lois and Jason were all over the media and Gabriel was offering a reward for information on the kidnapping. Yet nothing, no sign of her. I had called Breed almost non stop, nearly driving the poor guy crazy and pressuring him to find something, anything that could lead us to Janet. I hadn’t eaten or slept since it happened and I couldn’t concentrate on work. All I could think of was getting her back. I spent most of my day at the Benson’s house, with Jan’s family. We all sat waiting anxiously for Lois or Jason to make contact. I was at home now, my dad had insisted I take time off till we found Jan, pacing about my apartment, half out of my min
The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement I Have Plans For You
Chapter 148 Janet “Hey Lois.” I said casually and bit a slice on pizza. I couldn’t see much of her face,but I knew she was wearing a short dark wig and I guessed contact lenses. Another one of her disguises. She seemed a little disappointed by my casually behavior, as if she had expected me to faint from shock. “You are not surprised?” She asked. “ Or perhaps Jason has told you already?” “I didn’t.” Jason said “No he didn’t. But still I am not surprised.” And I wasn’t. “ I knew you weren’t dead. Everyone, even the cops, thought you were but I knew you weren’t.” “You always were a smart ass. Unlike some people.” She turned to Jason. “ You have been made!” “What? How? Nobody saw-“ “The carpark has cameras dumbass. Your picture is all over the media.” “But you never mentioned cameras.” “I never mentioned traffic may be on the road, but I am sure you looked both ways before crossing. Didn’t you?” She snapped. Jason paled. “What do I do? How do I go out if they ar
The Billionaire's Unexpected Engagement Captive
Chapter 147 Janet “Hello! Can I get some water! Hello!” It was day two of my imprisonment. I had come to and found myself alone in a basement, lying on a small torn mattress. My right wrist was chained to the wall. It was cold and dark, except for a stream of light coming in through a crack in the single, boarded up window. The place was dirty and untidy, but there were no rats. I hated rats. Aside the humiliation of being chained up, and a slight heaviness in my head, I wasn’t hurt in any way. But I hadn’t had any food or water since I had been in here, and I still had no idea who my captor was or were. At first I had tried screaming but I found out I was wasting my energy. The sound only echoed back, so I gave up. I tried to remember what had happened. I had been on the phone, then sat in my car. I remembered hearing a noise in the back seat..then..…..I had smelt a chemical! Even now the smell was still on my nose. I must have been drugged! The person was hiding in the b
