A problem solved

Chapter 101 BIANCA’S POV After Richard told me everything I needed to know about his past relationship with Ben and Heather, I was so stunned that I was speechless and unable to react for quite some time. I was shocked that Ben would hurt his best friend like that. Richard said they have been best friends for as long as he can remember. Richard's father was the Alpha of the city and Ben' s father the second in command. As a result, their parents used to be really close, which made their friendship even stronger. It was heart-wrenching to hear of such a betrayal between two friends who were once like brothers, especially when their families were so close. With the way things are now, I doubt their families even talk to each other. “B…” Richard’s voice echoed in my head as he called me several times. He took me by the shoulders and shook me a little, causing me to snap back to reality. “Are you okay?...” “Yes…” I muttered and rubbed the side of my head, realizing I had zoned out.

Heading out

Chapter 103 RICHARD’S POV I called two of my bodyguards because there was no way B and I would be going out there without protection. Fortunately, they were close, just in the hotel’s lobby. Father always insisted on me taking bodyguards wherever I went, but I wasn’t very keen on that. My privacy was paramount to me, and I could easily defend myself when the need arose. When I got downstairs, Gideon had already made sandwiches and lemonade for lunch and was setting the table for two. I admired how fast he worked; he was always efficient, and I appreciated that about him. The noise the soles of my shoes made on the marble floor caught his attention. He looked at me, his brows squishing as he was probably wondering why I was fully dressed. “Going somewhere, Boss?” He asked. “Yeah,” I answered, looking impatiently towards the direction of B’s room to see if she was coming, but there was no sign of her. What could be keeping her? She said she’d be fast if only I knew she might be the

The Trolls

Chapter 104RICHARD’S POVAs we descended in the elevator, my stomach suddenly churned with unease as my mind raced with potential scenarios and questions that awaited me and B outside.Since my father made frantic efforts for Heather’s video not to circulate in the media and my schoolmates were forbidden from talking about it outside school, the news didn’t quite reach the general public, so I was spared that shame and humiliation.The last time I faced a crowd of reporters wasn’t long after I returned to the city. They were curious about why I’d been travelling so much. I didn’t reveal much; just said it was for luxurious vacations and building connections with other cities and nations in preparation to take over from my father when the time came, and left it at that.The story was forged well and I sounded very convincing so they ended up buying it. Since then, I haven’t disturbed me much. I knew how mind-bugging and malicious their questions could be. I just hope it won’t break B

Questions and Answers

Chapter 105RICHARD’S POVAs we walked down the hallway, we heard voices getting louder, mixing with camera clicks that sounded more frantic with each step.My bodyguards on seeing us, quickly flanked us as we approached the exit.“Oh my goodness,” B exclaimed lowly, bringing her free hand over her lips to stop herself from gasping out loud.We looked at each other. She was shocked at the sight before her and I was pretty sure I could hear her heart beating faster in her chest.“We did our best, but they’re just too much to handle,” one of the hotel’s security men said as he grabbed the door handle to pull it open for us.The security men and my bodyguards quickly stepped out in front of us. They positioned themselves two steps below B and me on the entrance steps, forming a protective barrier around us.The scene in front of us was like something straight out of a nightmare. Reporters and cameramen crowded together, thrusting their microphones and holding up cameras, eager for any i

A question that threw me off balance

Chapter 106RICHARD’S POVThat particular question made me instantly nervous. Of course, B was more than attractive enough for me and my heart didn’t belong to anyone else. It belonged to her and her alone. With that in mind, I came up with the best answer I could.“As my wife mentioned earlier, whoever came up with that post was trying to cause trouble for us. It was a lie. I fulfil my duties as a man to my wife. She testified about that,” I turned to B and looked at her with proud dreamy eyes. “I love my wife very much. She’s more than attractive enough for me and my heart belongs only to her.”Cheers and coos filled the air, with some people even blowing hand whistles for us. I was overwhelmed with happiness. I didn’t anticipate the event to be so jolly and cheerful, like interviewing celebrities on a Friday night talk show. I thought the reporters would be rather brutal and malicious with their questions, but thankfully, they weren’t like that at all.B’s cheeks overheated with p

Do you miss her?

Chapter 107RICHARD’S POVHeather and I’s relationship was never a media fuss. Mostly, we met and spent time together at school so as not attract the attention of the media. We were taking tiny baby steps until we were ready to take our relationship to the next level, go public and eventually get married. But that didn’t happen. Everything fell apart in the blink of an eye because of Ben.The only times we met outside school was during a classmate’s party or other social events where I always covered up by saying she was my date, escort or just a friend I brought along for that event.Heather didn’t visit my place often. When she did, and on her third visit, my dad made it known to me he didn’t like her very much because she seemed like an opportunist. That was because he didn’t know her as well as I did. I hoped to prove him wrong over time and show him her true self, but that chance never came.So when the reporter brought up that news about Heather, it hit me like a fast-moving tr

Forever

Chapter 108BIANCA’S POVRichard looked at me, his hold on my hand loosened and his features contorted in confusion. “Miss who?”“Heather. Your ex-girlfriend,” I said, couldn’t help but wonder if he did that on purpose.He hesitated a little and sighed before answering that. “Yeah, I do.”Letting that one slide for a bit. I moved to the question. Missing her was normal and acceptable since they used to be close. “What about love?” I asked with rapt attention. “Do you still love her?”That question made him awkward and put him at unease as he looked away, rolling his eyes and letting out a series of deep lowly sighs as if not knowing what and how best to answer me.I knew he wouldn’t like me asking him that. But at moments like this, I needed to plan my future and make hay while the sun still shone. I needed to know my fate in case his ex-girlfriend walked through our apartment door one day and let him know she never stopped loving him while she away.I hope what he answered that rep

Another Profession

Chapter 109BIANCA'S POVThe elevator dinged, startling us. We chuckled at our reaction before stepping out into the hallway. As though Gideon knew we were coming, he opened the door before Richard could use his access card. “I saw everything,” he said with a proud, dreamy look in his eyes, still gripping the door handle. “It was… beautiful. You two handled it well, and whoever is trying to cause trouble for you two will see trouble for the rest of their lives,” he concluded firmly. “Thank you, Gideon,” I said and held Richard’s arm, leaning onto it and smiling at what Gideon said. Richard seemed unaffected and a little awkward. Gideon wanted to say something else, but Richard cut him off. “…That’s enough Gideon,” he breathed out as though fed up. “Could you at least let us in and feed us first before saying anything else?” Now that I was noticing it, he seemed exhausted and I’m sure he was also hungry. “Yeah, sure,” Gideon stepped aside for us to come in. “Now you have no excuse

Blown up

Chapter 110BIANCA’S POVThe buzzing of my phone startled me up from the bed, bringing an end to one of the best sleep I have had in a century. Groaning out in frustration and drowsy as fuck, I reached out to where it was on top of the nightstand, a bit surprised it was even there. I thought Richard left it somewhere in the living room after he took me hungrily in his lips last night.My eyes were barely open and still trying to accommodate the morning light, so I didn't bother to see who was calling. I squinted and clumsily tapped the green answer button. Suddenly, Nina's overly excited voice blasted through the speaker, practically pounding on my eardrums.“Oh my gosh girl, your I***a is blowing up!”This was the first time we were talking since we sorted out things about her being involved with Richard. I know it had been a while, but that didn't mean she had to call so early and ruin my sleep. I could overlook it if it was an emergency, but from her overly excited tone, I doubted i
