All Chapters of Billionaire Bride: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

I woke up with a headache and a searing pain at the back of my head. The light coming in from the window made it even harder as it kept burning through every part of my body. I flicked my eyes open and nearly cursed at how the headache doubled from the action.I closed my eyes back and immediately turned to at least prevent the sun from assaulting my eyes. The moment I turned around, my eyes fell on a naked male body. I screamed my lungs out, my headache and pain temporarily forgotten."Why are you screaming?" Xavier asked.I clasped my mouth shut immediately. I looked at him and I noticed that he didn't even open his eyes. The deceiving man! As if he heard my thoughts, he chuckled loudly. His eyes were still kept shut though."Told you, didn't I?" He finally opened his eyes to look at me."Told me what?" I asked, confused."That you would regret it in the morning." He chuckled.I had no idea what he went on about. But seeing how the man gloated, I could tell that whatever he said I w

I know that a few moments ago he had told me I was nothing special. But the way he looked at me. The way his eyes were soft and hooded as he stared down at me, I couldn't help it. I felt special. And I wanted to show him that I was too. So I took a step back, holding his gaze and slowly let the robe drop to my feet. Every inch of my skin burned under his gaze as I waited for him to take in his fill of me. "Fuck, Hailey," he groaned, stepping closer to me. "You... You're-" He seemed unable to form coherent words and I frowned. I didn't think I looked bad. I thought I was quite good looking so why did it seem as if he was choking?"Are you okay?"He nodded, then shook his head and stormed towards me, collapsing together with me on the bed. The soft sheets caressed my very naked self and I moaned when I felt a certain hardness pressing up against my spot. "Oh... Oh, that feels good." I whispered, looking up at Xavier's amused face. "You like that?" Xavier teased and I nodded shyly.

Susie always did say I was quite dumb. And right at the moment, I agree. Because there would be no other reason why I would be standing right in front of my estranged father's house, the same jackass who abandoned me before I could spell "preposterous" if I wasn't stupid. But hey, between a bastard for a husband who couldn't stand up to his mother and a bastard for a father who at least thought not to leave me to die in the cold, I'd pick the latter any day. Besides, he owed me a lot of hot teas and biscuits in the past, I was simply collecting my dues. "Come on in." He urged eyeing me softly as I glared at the building before me. It was a suburban duplex. A freaking modern home with all the dandy flowers by the lawn and the garage on the left side of the house. If he could afford to live in such a place, why hadn't he come back for me? Why had he left? Shaking my head, I pulled my face into a grim look, or at least what I imagined to be a grim look and motioned with my head for

"You have a karaoke machine?!" I squealed running towards the rather rectangular box with a mini screen on it. "This is pretty cool. Grandma used to love karaoke but the diner that has it is quite far so we go like on Thursdays only."Laura was giving me a tour of the house. I hadn't asked for it or anything and I was quite ready in case she tried to shove me into a closet or hit me on the head with a vase or something. Living with so many backstabbers had made me conscious of the fact to always watch my back. We stood in the lounge, well she stood but I was busily palming the karaoke machine like it was my best friend. "My dad won that from his friend in Alaska. They had some bet or so." Laura said proudly. "Want to sing a song together?"I grinned widely at her. Forget the vase and the closet. I was going to have the time of my life without worrying about anything. An image of a very angry Xavier floated through my head and I immediately shook it out. I don't care what that idiot d

"Hailey! You crazy bitch! By the time I am through with you!" Yup, I was dead meat. I sat in Xavier's car contemplating my life's choices. If Susie got to enter the car, the possibility that I would get eaten up, swallowed, regurgitated and chewed out was ninety-nine percent. The one percent depended on if I could wear her out first. When she got to the car, whose windows, I had rolled down slightly. It was low enough such that we could hear each other but high enough to keep me safe from Susie's mauling. She did look like she would bash my head in the first chance she would get. "What the hell?!" She screeched, reaching for the car door."Way ahead of you," I muttered when she tried opening it and it didn't open. If I wasn't so tired, I'd probably be smirking like an idiot at the moment. "Open this door now Hailey." She ordered and I shook my head, imitating a Marilyn Monroe voice. "No can do Susie. I'm afraid I can't do that until I get a promise-""Easy," she gritted. "I prom
