When Billionaires meet Chapter 57: The demon in him
Karen made Hannah give a list of the activities that happened in the day and Hannah who seemed to understand her boss a lot more better by now was obedient enough to create this list for her.Karen's mind couldn't leave Cole. Was he that stupid that he went as far as signing stupid contracts with his ex. What ex didn't move on? Wasn't that the whole point of being his ex? A person from his past."I'm just his ex wife. I'm no different from that bitch." Karen rolled her eyes in realization.She didn't have to go for another shoot for another three days and although she didn't know Cole's schedule, she hoped she had no reason to bump into him."Marry him?" She scoffed, "who makes that sort of request, fake or not." She stood to her feet, her hands behind her back. She met Hannah's gaze and cleared her throat. "I'm not insane, I know what I'm doing."Hannah nodded in response, mentally deciding that a response could pose a problem. "I've done everything we need to do. The accountant made
When Billionaires meet Chapter 58: Karen's temptation
Jacob was shocked to see Cole and witness his appearance and so it was easy for Cole to take his actions out on him.Cole attacked him with a hard punch on the face and that got him to fall face flat. Karen threw her hands up to her mouth, her heart was still racing from the incident that had almost happened.She was more surprised that a man like Jacob would attempt to rape her, than she was afraid of the scene.By now, Jacob had access to his thinking and threw his fist at Cole in revenge.Cole was fast enough to catch his hand before it got to his face.Karen hoped he had the ability to keep things going. Although she had no knowledge of how he had gotten there or followed them, she didn't take things too far and simply chose to ignore him. She was going to dial the police so they could get rid of Jacob.Cole on the other hand was distracted by dealing with that, he didnt pay attention to the fact that she was gone from the living room."Why would you try to get rid of my shine? I w
When Billionaires meet Chapter 59: A steamy moment
Cole closed his eyes, his hands on her waist by now and he pulled her even closer to him. This was on her consent and so he wasn't arguing.Karen got to her feet and he automatically took the same action.She pulled away from him to catch her breath and stared into his pleading eyes. He wanted this just as much as she did."Should we go to my bedroom?" She asked him.Cole couldn't hide his surprise. Was she really suggesting they took things further? He had thought she was moving away from him because she had come back to her senses."Uh, y..yes." Of course, he couldn't decline the offer. He personally had no intentions to make love with her but it was difficult to say no to Karen.Without uttering any more words, Karen took the lead and headed straight for the bedroom.Cole tagged behind her with delicate steps, so many things going through his mind. He wondered if she was testing him at the moment. He found no reason why she would and so he played along regardless.Karen didn't waste
When Billionaires meet Chapter 60: Accident...
Cole woke up first the next day to Karen trying to move closer to him. The movements had been responsible for waking him up and he was still uncertain of his location and regained awareness after a few blinks. He was sure by now that Karen would be back to her senses.Her hand was around his waist and trying his best to be careful while he sat up, he moved her hand away as gentle as he could manage.He scanned the wall to see if he would catch the sight of a wall clock nearby. There was none around and he shrugged at it.He tried to remember where he had left his phone and decided it was in the living room. They were both still naked and had the blanket that was partially around her leg.A small groan came from her and that froze him to the bed for a few seconds until he regained awareness of his surroundings and snapped himself to reality, sighing in relief that she was still asleep.He h

Cole was still coughing but he tried to pay attention to where she was going, wondering if she was leaving him all by himself.She returned after a few seconds with bottled water and handed it to him. "Here you go." She handed out to him but by then his coughing had seized."What the heck was that about? Are you okay at all?" She wondered, unable to hide how she felt."I'm fine." He nodded, trying to get her to believe that everything was going on in fine for him."You fucking coughed out blood, how on earth can you say you are fine?!" She couldn't believe her ears. He must have thought she was such a fool."Alright." Cole sighed and sunk further into his seat. He framed his head in her direction and sighed a second time. "I have hemoptysis.""Oh my God." Karen's hands went straight to her mouth. "H..how long has this been? Is it life threatening or non massive?" She found
When Billionaires meet Chapter 62: Do you have feelings for me?
"What?" Karen stared blankly at Hannah, not knowing how best to answer the question."I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend you in any way." Hannah was quick to apologise in case she had taken things too far with her question."Its okay." Karen assured her, trying to act un affected by the question although it had played a major impact on her emotional well being and state of mind. "You can take your leave now, don't worry about anything.""Okay ma'am." Hannah stood to her feet. "Thank you for having this conversation with me." If there was anything, Hannah was truly grateful that Karen had specifically chosen to talk to her about it."Thank you for listening." Karen said.Hannah widened her eyes when she was no longer looking at Karen. What had come over the frustrated woman she had met the other day?When Karen was done with her activities for the day, she packed up and lef
When Billionaires meet Chapter 63: I love you
"I was thinking the same thing, if I have to be honest." Cole began. "Why don't we just let things play out the way they want to rather than question it hmm?" He suggested and she nodded against his chest in understanding."Okay." She said and stood to her feet, "let us cook something to eat, what do you think?" She said."Alright ma'am." Cole stood up after her. "I think I have some good news for you." He said when they got to the kitchen."And what news is that?" Karen wondered, pulling all the food items out of the bag.Cole scratched the back of his head nervously, "Lara was arrested today.""What?! That is good news, why did you seem so nervous to say it?" She pulled her eyebrows in confusion, "I mean, you should be happy.""I'm trying to be. I think Lara is more obsessed than evil. She refuses to let go of the fact that we are no longer together. If I choose to be tr
When Billionaires meet Chapter 64: Wedding bells
"I am so sorry, that just came out. I don't know what I was thinking." Cole sighed, pulling away from her, sitting up and scratching the back of his head. He ran his fingers through his hair in this attempt and messed them up. He wasn't lying. It was not planned and there was no taking it back at the moment and so he could only hope that she understood his point of view."It's fine." Karen sat up as well, chuckled and brushed his hair back into one piece. "I think I have a solution to this problem." She teased him. That did a lot with calming him down. He read the ease in her tone and realized she hadn't taken his confession wrongly. Was it even a confession? He wondered."W..what are you talking about?" He squinted his eyes at her. He was curious to know, especially now that she wasn't biting his head off."I'm just trying my best to be thoughtful you know." She put on a smirk and knelt on the bed, drawing closer to him.

Karen waited for him to react, but there was nothing. He stood there staring at her, trying to process the information internally. There was no way in the world she had just said that."What?" He said in a cracked voice.She shrieked when he pulled her to her feet and lifted her from the floor she tapped his shoulders repeatedly, "put me down, please let me go." She squealed in amusement.He did just as she had said, letting her to her feet and then he took her lips in his."Oh my God, I can't believe this," he laughed, placing his hands on his head."You scared me back there for a minute, I thought you were going to react the total opposite." She confessed with a smile, wrapping her arms around him, "so you're happy about it then?" She raised an eyebrow at him."Fuck yes!" He chuckled. "I don't even know what the right action to take is right now." He buried h

"Oh my goodness gracious, that is wonderful news!" She felt like a whole bomb that had been waiting to explode had finally been let loose inside of her. She had lowkey spent time worrying about his well being but knowing fully well that there was nothing to worry about did so much much in relieving her that she had no idea when she stood to her feet and pulled him into a hug."Come here you." She chuckled, squeezing him tight in her grip. He laughed at the reaction and returned the hug in an even tighter embrace. There was really a lot about her he fancied so much to even think to let go off her."How are we celebrating this? This is the best news I've heard in a while.'' She smiled against his shoulder."I could eat a whole meal... with you on the menu." He teased her."Well, dinner is served then." She raised her eyebrows at him, wrapping her hands around his neck while he lifted her up."But before then, you should get stuffed up too, we don't want you getting all exhausted, so eat
When Billionaires meet Chapter 71: Guess who is free
The next Monday at work, Karen called Hannah to her office after informing her that she had something important to share with her.She was on her phone texting with Cole. They had been doing this over the last hour and even though it was distracting her from going through her emails, she enjoyed the feeling.They had spent most of the weekend together and he had offered to take her on a trip. Her smile wore off when Hannah walked into the office with a slight knock on the door."Come in." Karen called to her, letting Cole know that she would talk to him later.She moved her phone and placed it on the table face down. "Please take your seat." She directed, extending her hand to the seat in front of her."Okay." Hannah nodded in agreement, a little bit fearful of what Karen could possibly want to say to her. "Did I do something wrong?" She wondered aloud."No. I just wanted

Cole decided not to ask her anything about the topic, knowing it would only lead to more uncomfortable moments. The drive to the hospital in silence for the rest of the journey.Getting there, the calm breeze that hit Karen's skin made her feel a sense of refreshment.Cole noticed but only smiled in response, holding her hand and taking her into the building with him after he had secured the car locked in a good parking space.When they walked into the hospital, the first thing Karen felt was an instant hit of sadness.She looked around at the people that filled every corner of the room and couldn't help her expression."What's wrong?" Cole asked again,noticing how far she looked."It's nothing." She lied and craned her head in different directions, silently following him to the woman at the reception counter."Is there anything I can do for you?" She aske

"Yes we are getting back together, why do you seem to have such a big problem with it?" Karen raised her eyebrows at his confused mother, "I mean if people want to go in relationships, you shouldn't go around poking noses into their businesses." She sounded as if she had planned the answers previously, waiting to let it all out."But he is my son, I have every right to ask him why he is with his ex wife all of a sudden, so don't make it seem like I am some bad egg or something." Elizabeth retorted. She was still flabbergasted from meeting Karen here all of a sudden but that was not a considerable factor to hold her back from saying her mind."I'm glad we have answered your question." Karen stood to her feet and extended her hands towards Cole. He was still in shock and plain confusion hut he received her hand and stood to his feet as well. "I think we will leave now.""Cole, what is happening?" Elizabeth wondered, followin

Karen calmed down in that stance,realizing that people didn’t really know so much about her like she thought and that made her feel relieved, a bit comfortable to be here again.She wondered where his mother could be, or what she was doing. Karen didn’t think she would have to bunp into her anytine soon because she was the expectant grandmother and should be busy with handling other activities at the nmoment.Karen was brought out of scrutiny when her phone began to ring in her purse. Cole had been paying attention to what she possibly felt like and so he was curious to know what phone call she was receiving.“Who's that?” He asked her while she unzipped her bag. She brought the phone out and put it up to her face.“My mom.” She answered him, sounding surpri

"What are you doing?" Karen sat up in bed and looked up at Cole as he dressed up ,clearly ready to leave for somewhere.She stretched, I ywned and rubbed her eyes a little. Cole smiled at her and kept doing the buttons on his shirt while trying to focus on his reflection at the same time."Tell me, do I look good enough?" He turned around to look at her and his lips twitched into a smile when he cauht the look of confusion on her face and her furrowed eyebrows. "Why do you look like I stole something from you?""Where are you going?" She changed the format of her previous question."So today is my sister's baby shower and I'm supposed to be there." He explained, moving towards a drawer. He pulled it out and brought a colonge out."What time is it?" Karen looked around the room, trying to find a wall clock."Almost twelve." He sighed."Whoa."

"W..what?" Karen stuttered, staring blankly at Cole. She thought she must have heard him wrong and wondered if he knew what he was doing or saying.Cole raised one eyebrow at her and when she remained silent for a long time, he began to laugh at her facial expression. "I was just messing with you. You should have seen your face." He teased her.

Karen was walking out of the organisation after closing hours when her phone rang in her handbag. It was a white leather one that matched her suit outfit. She stopped walking, zipped the bag open and pulled her phone out. She had been startled a little because she was not expecting the phone call.She rolled her eyes with a smile on her face when she saw who the phone call was from. It was none other than Cole. Typical.
