Conspiracies

Ditch the Ex, Date the Billionaire. Chapter 11: Conspiracies .ALAN* Repeated knocks sounded on the door to my bedroom as I groaned rolling on my bed trying to avoid the noise. “Alan!!.” I opened my eyes reluctantly hearing my mother’s voice. She sounded annoyed. “Yes?.” I muttered getting down. I had no choice. Either wake up or she destroys the door. “Yes mum?.” I say again as I opened the door revealing her face. She was annoyed. She pushed past me walking into the room. “Why are you at home and not at work?.” “I rarely go to work, you know that.” I responded confused. “Well you have to, now wash up and go.” “Relax, it’s not like I’ll get fired. Grandpa would never do that to me.” I reply her going back to flop back on the bed. “Well your grandfather might not but your uncle will.” I sat up stunned as I faced her. “What are you talking about?.” “My brother is in the company today. I don’t know why but I guess it’s to see my father, to see your grandfather.”

Surprise?

Ditch the Ex, Date the Billionaire . Chapter 12: Surprise? . *Isabella* Archibald stared at me expecting me to at least say something. “Um .. .” I started nervously before shaking my head. “Just forget about it, it’s nothing.” A frown immediately found its way to his face as he regarded me. “I know it’s not nothing. It has to be something because it’s making you cry, it has to be something for Warren to step in. Isabella, what happened?.” “Just .. .” I pause a little thinking of how to phrase what happened. “Just a little work issue but don’t worry Warren had it settled.” But he wasn’t budging. He arched an eyebrow. “And why did Warren had to step in exactly? Was the situation that important?.” “I was being bullied, I think.” “You think?.” “I don’t know.” I softly groaned not knowing to put this. “It’s just— I had to do something today, take some very important papers and then fill the information off them onto my system but then I was sent out for another job that’

Spoiled

Ditch the Ex, Date the Billionaire . Chapter 13: spoiled . *ALAN* I stared at the strip, my heart racing. “You have got to be kidding me.” I muttered. “You must be joking, tell me you are joking.” “Joking?.” She scoffed in response. “I certainly am not, Alan. I’m serious about this, that’s why I’ve been trying to reach you, you idiot. I went to the hospital because I’ve been getting some symptoms and then they ran tests.” Chantelle stood there crossing her arms as if daring to me to talk back. “The tests came back positive?.” I blurted out, unable to contain my fear. “Yes it did. What’s your problem?.” “My problem?!.” I sneer. “You are the one who barged in here giving me unpleasant news. Why the fuck are you pregnant in the first place?.” “Oh gee, I don’t know Alan, maybe because we had sex.” She responded sarcastically. I roll my eyes. “Don’t give me that bullshit. You are not the first girl I’ve had sex with. Are you sure what you are saying is the

Time for Emmys

Ditch the Ex, Date the Billionaire . Chapter 14: Time for Emmys .*ARCHIBALD* I walked into my father's office with a mix of nerves and determination. This was it, the moment I had been waiting for—to convince him that I was ready to take back my position as CEO of the company. I had spent countless hours pouring over the reports, analyzing every detail, preparing my case. "Dad," I said as I entered the large office, my voice steady despite the flutter of anxiety in my chest. "I need to talk to you about the company."My father glanced up from his desk, his expression unreadable. “My son decides to step into the company for the first time, I am greatly surprised.” I resist the urge to roll my eyes at his sarcasm. “Dad I need to talk to you.” “What is it, Archibald? I'm quite busy."“That’s the reason I booked for time with you. I knew you were going to say that you were busy so I had to book a meeting with your secretary.”And he paused, finally looking at me. “Archibald, fo

"I think the company’s 60th anniversary is the perfect opportunity to announce Alan and Chantelle's partnership at the company," she suggested, her voice carrying across the table.Chantelle's family nodded in agreement, her father, Mr. Normal, a distinguished gentleman with a warm smile, chiming in, "It would be a double blessing indeed.

"Oh, stop it, you're making me blush. But seriously, you're going to dazzle everyone tonight." As Dara adjusted the folds of my dress and smoothed down my hair, I felt a sense of excitement bubbling within me. Tonight was the company party, and I was determined to make a good impression.I don’t know if Archie’s father was actually going to go ahead and introduce us to everyone but I just had to dress the part just in case.

Mine

Ditch the Ex, Date the Billionaire . Chapter 18: Mine . *Isabella* “Dara, I think that’s enough makeup you’ve put on.” I say cautioning her. She shook her head not listening to me. “No I have to dress the part, there will be a lot of hot billionaires and millionaires at this party.” “You have a boyfriend!.” I remind her outraged she would say that. She chuckled glancing away from the mirror to look at me. “Well who said I can’t be in a relationship and be a sugar baby at the same time?.” I don’t even have the time to address what she said as she immediately grabbed her bag after reapplying her lipgloss for the tenth time. “Okay I’m done!.” “Finally.” I said exasperatedly. “Why are you in such a hurry?.” She asked as we left my room. “You don’t even like parties like that, I think I saw you in the last one looking like you were forced to be there.” “That’s because I was forced to be there.” I remembered the Bancroft company party last year. My father had forced me

A New Addition

Ditch the Ex, Date the Billionaire . Chapter 19: A New Addition .You can do this, Isabella. You can do this. I try to motivate myself from not getting too nervous as Archie squeezed my palm to help me. As Archie and I made our way through the crowded room, I couldn't help but feel overwhelmed by the sea of faces surrounding us. Even when I usually attended events when I was still living and abiding by my father’s rules, I still couldn’t just adjust to this lifestyle.It’s just so overwhelming. Being in a room full of people that are better than you. People that know that they are better than you. Makes one self esteem low. And I already have a low self esteem to begin with. But it seemed like my experience at this particular anniversary party was going to be different because people were smiling and greeting us warmly, their voices blending into a cacophony of sound. I clung to Archie's arm, seeking comfort in his reassuring presence.He sensed my unease and leaned in c

Attention, everyone

Ditch the Ex, Date the Billionaire . Chapter 20: Attention, everyone . As I sat at the table with Archie's family, I found myself surprisingly at ease, thanks to the lively chatter of Archie's niece. We giggled and shared secrets, talking about boys and girly stuff as if we had known each other for years. It was a welcome distraction from the tension that hung in the air, and I found myself genuinely enjoying the moment.“Okay okay but wait I have to tell you about the time Uncle Archie was being an absolute rebel to grandfather, that was the most hilarious moment of my teens.” Aileen said as she giggled while taking a sip of her drink. Archie groaned, obviously having had enough with our gossiping. “I’m sure no one wants to hear about that, Aileen.”“Hmm I don’t know.” I shrugged giving her a wink. “It seems like a very interesting story.” I say and we both throw a fit of laughter again. I honestly didn’t expect to feel at ease while sitting with Archibald’s family. Wha
