CHAPTER ONE

THE BILLIONAIRE'S DESIRE/Jollypearl Bassey

A flurry of morning activities was conveyed by the softly flickering morning sun on Houston, Texas's streets. "Beep! Beep!” Kelly's alarm reminded him of the adventures ahead. Even though he did not drink coffee, he could not sleep last night because of the problems he was facing. Kelly recently lost his job as a gatekeeper in an exquisite restaurant after he showed up late at work on many occasions. Living in the slums of America, he found it difficult to show up early at work. It is my reckoning day. He let out another sigh of exasperation and looked at his wall clock, which showed 8:30 a.m. A semi-detached bungalow with cracked walls and worn-out blue paint where he resides with his daughter, Ciara, after he lost his beloved wife. Kelly was already at peace with his fate and prepared for whatever lay ahead. His wife passed away too soon because he was unable to cover her medical expenses with even the pennies he had previously made from the restaurant. "I am aware t

Is this a dream? My phone and cash! Hey, wait,” Kelly ran after the moving vehicle, screaming like a lunatic. He didn't know what just hit him. It took him 3 minutes to realize he had just been robbed. Wrapping his hands around his waist, he shook his head in disgust and sat next to a gigantic fence outside. He couldn't report to the cops or tell anyone what happened. "Where do I go from here? I don't even have a dime on me right now. What do I tell Ciara? How will she react to the devastating news?” Facing the sky, Kelly prayed silently in a faint tone. He got so engrossed in his thoughts and dozed outside, unbothered by the scorching sun melting his skin. "Hey, stranger. What are you doing here?” A passerby tapped Kelly and woke him up. "I'm fine,” replied, Kelly in a full-body stretch. He yawned and stood up. "My phone, where's it? I need to call my daughter immediately. She must be worried about me,” ransacking his pocket for his phone, he screamed. He immediately

"Don't be so ridiculous. I don't wanna believe you've got nothing inside that big head of yours. I don't want my father to find you here. We should think of getting you out of here before he walks inside,” bewildered, Ciara whispered. Her head was spinning. She could barely think straight to come up with a solution. "And I asked us not to have sex here. We could have just gone to your place. Now see the mess you caused me.” Ciara berated Walters for what happened. "Enough with the self-pity. It wasn't my fault. Don't act like you didn't want it, too. If you were so serious about this, you would have declined. But no, you jumped on the bed and spread your legs so damn wide while I fucked you so hard.” Walters clapped back and taunted Ciara. Leaning forward to her room door, Kelly called out again, this time, screaming out his lungs. "Ciara, I know you're in there. Why are you not answering? I've been calling for over an hour,” Making an indistinct chatter, she ordered Walters

It's yet another day conveying new hopes and aspirations. Ciara still hasn't gotten over the shock of being sold to an arranged marriage without her consent. Now she's on the verge of losing Walters, the only man who loved and cared for her, just to fulfill her father's selfish interest. "He even threatened to attempt suicide if I went against his decision. This is indeed bigger than me.” Ciara pondered. She's been out of bed for over an hour, speaking to her reflection in the mirror and seeking answers that would never be answered. "I need to find a way to fix this mess. I'm an adult. I can't allow my father to play the lead role in my life. Enough of this bullshit. I'm done playing his script. I'm now in charge!” With a bit of confidence, Ciara spoke out as she got dressed and dashed to the living room to find her father watching, concentrating on a television show. "Good morning, Dad,” trying to force a smile, Ciara greeted, yet he ignored her and narrowed his focus on the

THE BILLIONAIRE'S DESIRE/Jollypearl Bassey

The relationship saga hit Ciara so hard and pierced her heart like a dagger. She got so engrossed in her thoughts and forgot where she was. "Fuck you bitch. Watch where you going. I almost got you killed. If you're so tired of life, go jump into the Atlantic Ocean. Don't get me involved in your mess,” the man yelled at Ciara for standing in his way. "OMG! I'm so sorry. I wasn't looking. I never knew there was a car behind me,” she apologized. It took her some minutes to finally regain consciousness. “Sorry? Did you just apologize? Apologies, my ass.” The man angrily stepped down from his car and rushed to Ciara. “ I almost got you knocked down. Of course, you know what that means, right? I'll be spending Christmas in jail. Why don't I show you how sorry you should be?” Dragging Ciara by the ear and pulling her hair, he warned. “Don't try this shit with me next time because If you do, your folks will be planning your funeral. You pathetic bastard. Get the fuck out of my s
