All Chapters of The Billionaires Club: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

She had asked no questions when she forced her way into her dad’s room and saw the various players in the room. She didn’t dare rock the boat. Whether the surgeon was there because of their efforts, or someone else’s, she intentionally did not ask. Only thanked the powers that be, that her father had this chance at life.So, she held her father’s hand, kissed his cheek, and wished him well. Watched him get wheeled away through doors she could not follow. Then stood there numb with worry until Kim herded her and Collette out of there.Now she would start to ask. Because when billionaires were involved, every favor came with strings. Until the one beholden no longer had agency and was a marionette. What would she have to sacrifice for this miracle?The surgery was going to be a long and complicated operation, so it was recommended that they eat and rest nearby. Celine texted what happened, and the name of the restaurant to Sebastian so he could join them then stepped back into the privat

Transcript from the Interview with Phillip Bloombard.Reporter: When marriages end, the dissolution and division of assets can become a bitter battle. When billions are involved, it is a blood bath.

Without an explanation to Phillip, Celine raced through the restaurant, and out the front door. Sebastian was not that far ahead of her. “Sebastian.”, Celine said calling out loudly as she ran towards his retreating figure.She was desperate to reach him, she knew he was misunderstanding what he saw, and she didn’t want to hurt him or lose him. Sebastian flinched when she called his name so she knew he heard her and yet he did not stop or even look. He was really upset. She pumped her legs harder striving to reach him and when she tried to slow down she ended up skidding on the ice right into Sebastian’s back. This knocked his feet out from under him on the slippery ice and they both went down.Sebastian was over six feet and had a solid two hundred pounds of muscle so when he fell on top of her it hurt, a lot. Celine hardly felt the pain, she was so worried about Sebastian’s misunderstanding. He rolled off her and came to her side. “Celine, oh my God. Are you okay?”, Sebastian stammer

Walking out of Gale Industries, Celine felt like a rockstar. She had given her very first pitch to get an equine contract and she felt good about it. It all started when Kim told her about an opportunity.They were in the hospital cafeteria eating mediocre food the same morning Celine had her fainting spell. It was a panic attack, not dangerous, but scary. Apparently, hyperventilating puts too much carbon dioxide in your body and starves your body of oxygen and if you do not have enough oxygen in your bloodstream you faint.All of a sudden Kim got, that, look on her face, and Celine internally groaned.

Celine rose to escape, “I’m going to get some water, do you want some?”, Celine asked.“Yes, but hold on a second. I have an idea.”, Kim said grinning like the Cheshire cat in Alice in Wonderland.“Can it wait until I come back? I’m thirsty.” Celine said making another futile attempt.“Can’t w

With a fake smile that stretched like rigor mortis across her face, Celine shifted from one foot to the other trying to alleviate the ache from her high heels, and longed for the days when she did everything in boots. Her new role as an entrepreneur for Beaumont Equestrian made her feel like an imposter and she lived in constant fear, that at any moment, someone would see past her business attire and discover she was just a hick that was good at riding horses.“Everything looks good.”, the banker said. “The seventy thousand dollars should transfer this afternoon. Is there anything else I can help you with today, Ms. Beaumont?”, asked the bank teller.“That’s all for today, thank you.”, Celine said sustaining her counterfeit smile, and left for her next appointment of the day.It had been four months since she last saw Sebastian and, in that time, her father came home, the contract with Gale Hospitality was a success, and local schools were sending their kids by the busload to take clas
