The Billionaires Choice Chapter 87
RaphaelLeaving out, I let Christine know that I would only be in next week for meeting and to not schedule any pop-ups either. After I parked the car in the parking garage, I begrudgingly made my way up to our penthouse. I dreaded not seeing her there. Opening the door, I stopped in my tracks. laying on the couch, curled up in a throw blanket was the love of my life. I walked in quietly and put my things away. She was sleeping peacefully, and my heart was so full, I could feel the tears building in my throat. Stepping in the kitchen, I made her a light meal, recommended by her nutritionist and dietitian. Bringing it over to her, I gently woke her up, offering her the plate of food. With sleepy eyes she looked up at me with her beautiful light brown eyes and quickly looked away. My heart sank.She took the plate from my hands and mumbled a thank you. I sat next to her and tried to think of the right words to say. This moment felt so fragile and the last thing I needed was her leaving

Camille "Yes, mom! Now you and dad better be here or I'll cause a big scene!” "We wouldn't miss it for the world, bug. In fact, we're leaving our room now!" "Perfect! Thomas said he will meet you at the front when you get here!" "Okay, bug. Now hurry along. It's your big day!" "I love you bunches!" "I love you more!" Once I was off the phone with ,my mom, I went in search for Onny and her third arm. I found them at the food bar. It wasn't much of a surprise. Onny watch like crazy with the babies. Her belly was starting to poke out, so she had to wear loose fitting clothes just to keep it hidden from the world. They had finally told their moms, but we all agreed with them when they made the decision to keep it hidden from the public. They were the hottest couple in the media right now and that made them a target. Onny already deals with enough hate online for bagging Americas most eligible bachelor. The latest scandal online right now is that she used him to get her book pu

Mason I’ve been waiting for months to finally get my revenge but the Lahsen bastard had a tight grip on the bitch. I couldn’t get to her without being seen and at this point I was growing impatient. If I can’t have her then I’ll have to settle for someone else. She had a little sidekick back in high school that she brought along with her to new York. Yeah, she’s gonna have to do. Getting the location of their formerly shared apartment from Vanessa, I made my plan. She would be away for the whole day so it gives me enough time to feel set up what I needed to. While she was out, I moved my equipment into her apartment. It wasn’t hard to get in there. There were no cameras, and the property manager didn’t seem to care much when I asked for a spare key and that my girlfriend locked me out. They just handed it over without investigating. I got familiar with the tiny rundown thing and decided that what looks like Ondina’s old room. There was a single bed in the room that took up most

Ondina It's been three days and Ondina hasn't heard from Camille. Maybe she's been really busy. I'll call anyway. Pulling her phone out, she dialed Camies number. Straight to voicemail? That's was unlike her to let her phone die. Camille was someone who couldn't function without her phone and with her being an actress, she needed to be available in case she gets offered any more rolls. Ondina sat on the bed feeling anxious. "What's troubling you, little flower?" Raphael asked while planting loving kisses up and down her neck. "Camie." "Did she have a fight with Thomas?" "I don't know... I haven't heard from her since the premiere." Raphael gently brushed strands of curls from her face and pulled her to face him. "I'm sure she's fine. Maybe she's staying in and keeping from the press. They released her show a few hours after the premiere, she's trending right now." His words only made Ondina worry more. "That's the thing raf, it's Camie! She wouldn't miss going outside to b

Raphael The past few days were quiet and Ondina barely made it out of the room. Her stomach was getting bigger now, but it was expected. She was carrying two healthy babies. Although she hasn’t spoken much of left the room any, she still ate everything I’ve made for her. Today is the day we find out the gender of our babies. I know it’s gonna be hard for her, Camille was supposed to be here for this. She was their god mother and it was very important to Ondina that she was present when we found out. As much as I wanted to let her rest, it was time for us to go. I moved into the bedroom and gently stroked her hair. “Little flower, it’s time for us to go.” She looked at me with so much sadness and began to cry. “I know, baby. I know.” I consoled her while planting general kisses all over her face. After a few minutes, she sat up in the bed and allowed me to dress her. After about twenty minutes we were ready and loaded into the car. Walter drove us today. I wanted to be right

Raphael I swing my fist into the wall along the side of me. I was fuming with so much anger. Now that the truth of this was out, I needed to find him before the police did. Being in prison wasn’t good enough. He needed to suffer the same what he made Camille suffer, and after they? He needs to suffer again! “Calm down, Mr. Lahsen! I’m giving you this information because I thought you should know. I don’t need you doing anything crazy! I won’t be able to help you if you do.” “Detective Dickson, I am not concerned with the limitations of your assistance.” I stated dismissively. Signaling Walter over, Dickson looked at me with clear worry in his eyes. “Don’t worry, detective. No one will find out about this meeting. Thank you for your help, you can go now.” He quickly gathered his belongings along with the file, and left. “Contact Felix. I’ll meet with Thomas.” “On it.” The car ride to Thomas’s was long and hard. I could only imagine how he is gonna take this news. If it was O

Ondina There was now an emptiness that lingered in Ondina's heart. It was like Camille completed such a huge part of it and she hadn't realized it until now. It's been three months since the funeral and the release of her case on every news outlet. Ondina was now seven months along in her pregnancy, and she had to keep from watching the TV or getting on social media just to avoid seeing anything about her. Her story was trending all over social media and with the case being ongoing, true crime bloggers have been having a field day with it. She tortured herself enough at the beginning trying to follow the story up until they released her autopsy to the entire country. That was when Ondina couldn't take it anymore. She witnessed with her own eyes what Camille went through and all she had was her mind to play out different possibilities, but to hear them explain in gruesome detail of what happened, broke her heart in ways she didn't think was possible. What made it all worse is th

Ondina After a few seconds, Ondina sat up and let out a sigh. “I’m okay mom. How long have you been here?” Her mom looker her over, worry lining her forehead. “It too long. Are the babies hungry?” Ondina nodded and followed her mother out to the kitchen. They sat on the couch and talked about her pregnancy while she ate and finished the night with movies in the theater. They repeated this for the three days Raphael was away. At the beginning, she wanted to be alone, but quickly became appreciative of both her husband and mother for making the decision for her. If she stayed alone, she probably spent the lat three days crying. It felt good to wake up and have her mom there. Growing up, she was never able to get this much of hr mother’s attention. Not even if she was sick. She usually had to deal with things on her own and that kind of isolation taught her how to cope alone. Everything was different now. She was now a woman, married and pregnant. The one person she thought sh

Five years later...I woke up to the ringing of an alarm clock. Like always, it was Ondina's. She had a million of them set for every ten minutes. What for? I had no idea, but today, it wasn't just an annoyance. It was a painful reminder of the chaos that was about to erupt. Fire year old twins were a force of nature. The ringing of the alarm grew louder. I groaned, reaching for the snooze button, but a gentle hand stopped me. "Don't even think about it," Ondina murmured, her voice laced with a sleepy smile. "The monsters will be here any minute."I still couldn't believe I was married to a woman so beautiful. Her dark hair was a tangled mess against the silk pillow and her eyes were still heavy with sleep, but the warmth radiating from her was undeniable. She was, indeed, my everything, and now, carrying our third child, she possessed a radiant glow that made my heart ache with a love so strong it sometimes felt like a physical weight."Monsters?" I teased, pulling her closer. "I

RaphaelI was just finishing up paperwork she my office door opened and in walked Celeste. She swung her hips a little too hard and she smelled of expensive perfume."Raphy, darling," she purred, the word sounding like a hiss on her tongue. "So good of you to see me.""Celeste," I replied.I was already annoyed and just wanted together this over with. "I wasn't aware I had a choice. Your unannounced visit last night hardly left me one."She ignored the chairs and sat her ass on the edge of my desk. Her crimson lips curved into a practiced pout. "Oh, don't be like that, Raphy. I just wanted to see you. To catch up."My jaw tightened. "Catch up? By crashing into my home, heavily intoxicated, and physically assaulting my wife?"Her perfectly practiced pout faltered and was replaced by a flicker of annoyance. "Ondina was being dramatic. It was merely a little… disagreement with her.""A disagreement that involved you grabbing her hair and screaming about how she stole your life?" "He

RaphaelThis could not be happening. Not tonight. Not when Ondina was finally happy. She lunged herself forward, trying to wrap her arms around my waist but I stiff armed her in the forehead."Celeste," I whispered."How did you find our- that doesn't matter." Trying to keep my voice calm I stated."You need to leave.""Leave?" she shrieked, Loud enough for the entire house to hear her. "Leave? After everything? After you promised me forever? You were supposed to be mine, Raphy!"Ondina appeared behind me, her face a mask of confusion and then, registration."How the fuck did you get here?" Ondina positioned herself between me and Celeste."Ondina!" Celeste shrieked again, pointing a wobbly finger in her face. "You! How does it feel living MY life?! I was supposed to be Mrs. Lahsen! I was supposed to live in this house! I was supposed to-" before she could continue, Ondina pushed her in the chest."Back up or I'll call the police!" Before Celeste could launch into another tirade, An

Raphael"Are you sure we can pull this off, Raf?" she asked, her voice tight as she surveyed the mountain of unopened boxes in the living room."The movers have it all covered, my love. Don't stress. " I kissed her forehead."It's just, with it being the twins' birthday, and the family dinner... it's all happening so fast." I could understand why she would be overwhelmed.not only was the twins birthday, it was also moving day. I wrapped my arms around her, burying my face in her beautiful curls. "Hey, breathe. We've got this, little flower. I'm here, aren't I? And besides, you're forgetting the cater we hired." She chuckled, some of the tension left her shoulders. "you're right. I'm over reacting. I need to calm down.""Exactly! Now, tell me, what's priority number one?""Getting Cam and Camie's play area set up. If they're happy, we're all happy." We exchanged smiles.She was right. Those two could bring the the sky down on us if they weren't happy, but they were the best kind of

MasonBreathing was becoming a task for me. Every breath hitched a ragged protest against the pain that I was feeling every day, but today... today was different. The air hung heavier. It was like I could feel my time running out. I knew. Today was the end, and Ondina words clung to my heart. "You're gonna die here, and no one will miss you." A sigh escaped my lips. I could tase the blood in my lungs. My vision was patchy and it burned to keep my eyes open. They had gotten used to the dark after months of being in it, but now, they were struggling against the glow of that one single bulb I hadn't know was there. Ondina forgot to turn it off and this was a new kind of torture.I was left here, visibly able to see just how far gone I was. In the dark, I couldn't see much detail of myself, but now, I could see everything. I was far from the man I used to be, and I had no one to blame but myself. Regret was a useless emotion now. A luxury I could no longer afford, but it was there and

OndinaHis face was gaunt, his eyes sunken and hollow. His hair was longer and his facial hair was unkept, like he hadn't shaves in months. His clothes were worn and filthy, clinging to his sickly frame. He looked like he hadn't eaten in months. He was looking up at her, his eyes wide with a flicker of... 'was it hope?'Ondina took a step back when the memories crashed down on her like a tidal wave of horror and pain.She could remember the fear, the sting of the restraints cutting into her skin, and the relentless torment. She could remember his cruel laughters as he had enjoyed her suffering and how he mocked her as she cried. The memory that paralyzed her the most was his haunting groans of Camilles name as he repeated it over and over again while he used her body for his own gratification. She remembered the agonizing pain of premature labor and the fear for her unborn children as the darkness swallowed her whole. She remembered every single detail.He had taken everything from he

OndinaThree days earlierAfter a sleepless night, Ondina watched as Anna cooed over the twins. "You're a lifesaver," Ondina said, forcing a smile. "I'll be back as soon as I can.""Take your time," Anna said, already distracted with a game of peek-a-boo. "They're in good hands."Ondina kissed each of her twins on the top of their heads she said her goodbyes. "Be good for Anna," she murmured, her voice thick with a mother's anxiousness."They'll be perfect angels, Onny, now shoo." Anna fanned Ondina towards the door.Ondina slipped out the door, her heart pounding in her chest. She drove carefully. Once she was on the highway, she pressed down on the accelerator. She was feeling every bit of anxious, but she needed answers. The drive was agonizing. Doubts gnawed at her. What if she was wrong? What if she was overreacting? But then she was flooded with the memory of the look on Raphael's face every time he told her he had a business trip, and her resolve hardened.Finally, she rea

RaphaelAs I stepped onto the balcony, the crisp morning air caressed my face. Sunrise bled across the horizon, painting the building tops in hues of rose and gold. It was a beautiful day. A perfect day, almost.Inside, Ondina was stirring, the soft laughter of our twins, was already filling the air, letting us know they were awake. The thought of them tugged a smile onto my face. Two perfect, healthy babies. I was truly blessed. After everything, we were finally moving forward in a positive direction.I leaned against the metal railing, the cold was slowly creeping into my hoodie, but I barely noticed. My gaze began to drift towards the light traffic beneath me as my thought began to consume me. It's bee six months. Six months that we've had him. Six months of torture, and I still didn't feel the satisfaction I though I would.Thomas stepped beside me, his face looked strained. "Coffee's on," he muttered he lit a cigarette with a shaky hand."When did you get her?" I asked, pushing

OndinaOndina stirred her tea as she stared aimlessly. Raphael's conversation with Thomas kept playing on repeat in Ondina's head. 'What is he hiding from me?' She felt desperate to know who was in that cabin, and why Raphael was so desperate to keep it secret that he would lie to her.Ondina knew Raphael wasn't always forthcoming, but this felt different. It felt deliberate, and it made her feel uncomfortable. Her gaze drifted to the two sleeping infants in their bassinets. Cameron looked so much like his father, and Camille was a miniature version of herself. They were the reason she needed to know. Their fragile, innocent lives deserved a foundation built on truth, not secrets.Taking a deep breath, Ondina reached for her phone. She scrolled through her contacts until she found Raphael's mother's number. She played out in her head what she wanted to ask, but had no idea how she should go about it. After a few minutes, she took a deep breath and dialed. after a few rings, his mother
