All Chapters of The Billionaire's Jilted Bride : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

“Is the groom on his way?” The Minister whispered, I did not know how to answer, I have been feeling agitated since arriving at the church this morning. It had been thirty minutes, sitting and waiting for Daniel.Thankfully the church had a room, where I could dress for the wedding, so I came earlier than everyone, but Daniel promised to be here with me at the same time. He promised.“No, but he’s on his way," I answered, although I did not know if it was the truth, but I had to tell the Minister something. The Minister just shooked his head and left.I need June, June was supposed to be here with me, helping me, as one of the duties of a bridesmaid. This was not how I had envisioned today going. Sweat trickled down my face, even with the air conditioning in this room, it was not enough to keep me from sweating. “Selena, try and call him again, what is this behaviour, does he not know today is his wedding day, such a stupid boy." My father shouted at me, eyes blazing. I went out th

"You have a daughter?”, "Why was that not mentioned?" I shouted out the question, when I saw the little girl looking at me, I tried to remain calm.How many more people are going to betray me, just in a day. I thought."It was not a secret, my daughter is not going to be a problem, I'll do everything I promised to do, you just have to be a wife, I don't need a mother for my daughter.”I realized how my questions made me sound like I hated the idea of him having a child, but that was far from it, it's the keeping of secrets I hated and loathed."I'm sorry, that's not what I'm trying to say. I don't like you keeping secrets from me, and you having a daughter is a big deal.” I said calmly this time.Max took a calming breath. “I understand."I knew then, he was not going to say more than that, I had come to realize that Max Stone is a man of few words and a man that carries power. “Take her things inside, show her to her room, and help her with anything she wants." He continued, speakin

His lips were warm and soft. They parted slightly, allowing my tongue to slip inside.This was wrong, I was not ready for a relationship with this man, especially when I know he was hiding things from me.Liking him or worse falling in love with him will not end well for me.I was too vulnerable after the betrayal I just received, who could blame me. But knowing all that, I could not pull away. I heard footsteps approaching, someone was coming.“Mr Stone?" Mrs Rolly said entering the room, as we jumped apart. Max had a surprise expression on his face.While my mind was jumbled, how could I kiss him? I've always loved Daniel, he was my first kiss. He was my everything. How could I betray him?I shook my head, remember Selena, Daniel was the one that betrayed you, with your best friend nonetheless.“What is it, Mrs Rolly? I thought I said no disturbance, that I and Selena had something to discuss.”"Sir, a woman is here to see Mrs Stone.”Mrs Rolly replied.That brought me back from my

Two days later, I was still agitated from the news Max shared with me. I will see Daniel and with June of all people, a pregnant June at that.I don't know how I'm going to feel when that day comes but I know right now, I can taste fear in my mouth.I should not even be afraid, they are the ones in the wrong here, they betrayed me.I woke up today, and decided to put those thoughts behind me. After getting ready for the day, I decided to take Trina to school. I've hardly seen the little girl since that disastrous outing.Going to her bedroom, I knocked on the door, “Trina are you awake?” "Yes I am Selena, Mrs Rolly is here too, today is the bestest day ever.” Trina answered with a small and excited voice. I smiled so wide, it shocked me. I just met this little girl but it was like I've always loved her.Entering her bedroom, I saw her getting ready. “I will take you to school today Trina, will you like that? Good morning Mrs Rolly."Trina jumped and clapped her little fingers," yes,

I could see Daniel's name flashing on my phone. I don't understand what he could want. Since our disastrous wedding day, I've only received a text.My heart was beating so fast, it felt as if it would come out of my chest.Decision made, I brought my finger to click on accept, when I heard Max's voice. Then the ringing stopped. “Selena you are back, have you seen the magazine. I hope it was to your liking…Selena you look pale. Is something the matter?”"uhmm… Daniel just called."“Daniel? You mean June's husband."My heart clenched a little, does he have to remind me? I know he didn't want to say my ex fiance but calling Daniel June's husband is just adding salt to injury.I shrug, the shock wearing off, and trying to put on a brave face. “Maybe he wants to talk, maybe he wants to explain. After all I deserve an explanation, we loved each other.”Max's lips thinned, his jaw tightened. He was angry with my statement. I don't know why he was angry, I was the one that was betrayed not h
