All Chapters of The Billionaire’s Twisted Love: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

ARIANA’S POVRob rose to his feet with immediate alacrity and he seemed to tower over Detective Parker who sat there looking scared for his life.“I suggest you leave my house this instant, Detective Parker”, Rob said thunderously.“Mr Stone, you do realize that if you do not submit…”““You do know who I am, right? I wouldn't want to get my friend, a mafia Lord, involved. But if you continue to use untenable arguments to hurt my wife, l'Il let you, and your family know what it's like to experience the wrath of a mafia gang”, Rob threatened in a cold voice that immediately shut the Detective.He silently packed his documents into the file and exited the house.As soon as he left, I flung myself into Rob's arms, embracing him. I knew he was just making a threat and messing up with the mafia is the last thing he wanted to do. I was grateful and relieved all at once. I felt seen. Noticed and most of all…loved.Rob said nothing but enveloped me in a hug and when I pulled away from him, he

ARIANA’S POVIt felt like my world ended at that moment. I suddenly could not breathe and began to feel my heart beating rapidly against my chest. I swooned and felt Rob hold me steady. “What? What do you mean?” I asked.“Nate is Flora's son”, my father repeated.“What do you mean?” It was Rob this time around.I finally raised my head up long enough to look at him. I saw a shadow pass over his face. There was more than one question on his mind and my heart began to break into a million fragments. I was finding it difficult to wrap my head around this new information. Flora had a son? And my parents had withheld that knowledge from me? I stumbled again and this time held on to my father's desk for support.Life seemed to be dealing me blows from different angles.“Flora fell pregnant a year before her death”, my father said in a low tone.“You mean you've been hiding that child from me for years? Flora was hiding him from me too?” I nearly screamed.Rob started to walk towards me bu

ARIANA’S POV The headline was a disaster. No PR manager could save me from this. Unless the investigation proved I was not Flora's murderer, I was doomed.Unable to bear it any longer, I abandoned Rob in the office and ran downstairs. It could only be Emily or Detective Parker that had told the press. They were out to get me and it showed.Rob did not come after me thankfully. I needed space from him. I had no idea why I had even run to him in the beginning. I had to learn that he would never love me as much as he loved Flora. They had a son together. I had avoided him for days since the encounter at my

ARIANA’S POV It had all happened too fast and even now as the ambulance arrived along with the paparazzi that could never pass up an opportunity for a good story, I stood there as if in a trance.I had asked Josh to drive away as soon as the accident happened because the press would have a field day if they found the two of us together. I rode in the back of the ambulance to the hospital with Rob. Fortunately, he was still conscious even though he was delirious. I could smell the alcohol on his clothing and was a little mad at him for risking his life that way. What was he thinking? Had he not been using his seatbelt, he would be dead by now.We arrived at the hospital and he was quickly wheeled into the ER while I stood outside pacing up and down. Alone and angry. Where was Rob even headed to?I was relieved when the doctor finally cleared me in to see him and when I entered the hospital room, I felt sad seeing him connected to the machines and on drips.“Hey baby”, I whispered, si

ROBERT’S POVI knew Margaret’s announcement would hit Ariana like a train wreck and it made me angry that I could not protect her. Ariana would probably think I had planned I watched Ariana’s face go through so many emotions all at once till she settled for sadness. She said nothing and instead left the hospital room. I noticed Margaret smile and go back to her magazine. I loved the idea of spending time with my son but I didn’t want it to be like this. I really wished things were better. I understood it must not be easy for Ariana knowing how Nate had come to be.No woman would be comfortable with the idea plus Flora was her sister.We all chatted a little with Barbara inclusive and then the doctor came in and discharged me with a warning to take things easy as I wasn’t totally in the clear. I was still to be heavily under medications but I couldn’t ask for much. I had brought this upon myself due to my recklessness.I was eager to go home and begin afresh with Ariana. Perhaps this w
