All Chapters of A SILENT BRIDE FOR THE BILLIONAIRE: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Samuel was standing at the door with a medical attendant by his side. The look on his face told me that I was in trouble.“Why the hell are you doing here?” He asked, shouting at the top of his voice.I stood up abruptly and stammered.“I……. I came to see Mom”.“How dare you?” He yelled again, making me take a step backward.I remained mute as usual. I refused to regret my actions and applauded myself for a job well done.“Get out of here, back to where you came from this minute, and don't ever show yourself stupid self till further notice”.I picked up my bag from the floor, tucked my hair behind my ear, and walked out of the room. Sammie and the medical attendant proceeded into the room and started discussing in low tones, I stopped walking abruptly and came back curious to hear what they were saying.I peeped and saw the medical attendant trying to inject the same yellowish substance into Mom's drip bag. I don't know why something inside of me was feeling suspicious about it but I

After much thinking, I decided to attend to my phone first, then the door, and lastly, my headache. When I glanced at the caller and saw Adrian's name I quickly deduced that he was the one at the door. My gaze quickly diverted to the wall clock and my eyes almost popped out of their socket. What! It was past the time for the event.I rushed to the door to open it, but on second thought, I decided to peep through the door hole first. What I saw scared me to my marrow; Adrian was standing outside sweating profusely and banging on the door in anger; some of the hotel workers were with him, trying to calm him down. I took a step backward in fear, I had never seen Adrian so enraged.The only reason I was able to summon up courage and open the door was because of the workers who were with him outside. At least they would protect me if he tried anything funny.I twisted the door knob clockwise and opened the door hiding behind it. Adrian ran in with the workers immediately, looking around fo

“Marcus I never knew you were this perverted”. Adrian shrugged with chuckles. “Firstly, I don't just feel right about sleeping with her, and I'm sure she doesn't want it, neither do I. Besides, this whole marriage arrangement is solidly based on business. Secondly, I perceive her to be timid, docile, and reserved. I know she thinks of me as a mean person but I don't care. I can't add taking advantage of her vulnerable state to the list of mean things I have done to her. And thirdly, you know I am a feminist so anything related to abuse of females is highly prohibited by me”. He explained.“Bro, you are truly a genius if, indeed, you haven't tasted her,” Marcus said in one breath.“Everyone knows billionaire Adrian is a genius, a super one at that”. Adrian replied with his voice laced with pride.“So, since you are aware that you are mean to her, why do you keep doing it?”. Marcus asked glaring at him keenly.“Well, that question is actually deep”. Adrian replied, looking away.“But yo

Cameras were shuttering here and there, and flashlights kept interrupting my sight. I looked up to Adrian and he wore the most intentional look I had ever seen. We were walking into the meeting hall, hands intertwined like couples walking up the aisle. I felt really nervous plus the crowd from the press and the media around us. They kept stretching their sick microphones to our mouths and asking dumb questions.“Billionaire Adrian, since you got married, you have kept your wife off social media. Could you tell us why?” Another almost poked the cell phone in my mouth “Mrs Jenny Sterling, could you kindly tell us how your marriage experience with Billionaire Adrian is?” The next question was the dumbest question I had ever heard: “Miss Jenny Sterling, rumor has it that billionaire Adrian is good in bed; how true is this?” I almost freaked out. The security men were doing their job but it wasn't enough.“What are you doing?” Adrian whispered at the corner of his lips.“Nothing”. I blurre

The meeting finally came to a wrap. I almost jumped out of my chair in excitement. When I stood up, my limbs went numb for a few seconds and I had to hold on to the table and Adrian's left hand for support. He glared at me, confused, and yanked my hand off. I gulped hard and picked up my bag waiting for him to finish exchanging pleasantries with the board members so we could go home.Out of the blue, the ladies who snubbed me from the commencement of the meeting gathered around me and raised their phone cameras in the air. Selfies were shuttering here and there and I was just trying to make sense of what was going on. Soon, they were making short videos. Some were going live on Instagram, TikTok, and X, saying things like, “Guys, guess who showed up today? Billionaire Adrian's queen and you all know I don't have time for dull moments; we are connecting with her right away.”Maybe I would have had any problem with the whole thing if they were doing it decently and coded but we're just
