The Billionaire's Mistress Chapter Eighty-Seven - Vicious Strangers
I turned my face impulsively to meet those of the man that addressed me, and quivered in great fear. He looked mean and starwart, and was putting on a black hoodie that did well to conceal most of his face. His companion, who snatched my bag earlier, was likewise putting on a black hoodie, stopped by the alley and stood, watching as the other confronted me.“Let me be!” I yelled, struggling to wriggle free from his tight grip.“Don’t you dare make a noise! Else I'd blow off your fucking skulls!” He threatened, taking menacing steps towards me.My heartbeat doubled. My breathing is escalating. I knew instinctively that what stood between me and death was just a sound, so I dared not to make one.He drew closer to me, so that I could feel his warm breath and in a cold but threatening voice.“Listen, a pretty lady like you shouldn't be seen alone in the streets at night, unless you are a lady of the night.” He paused and breathed, irritatingly. “And I don't care if you're one or not, bu
The Billionaire's Mistress Chapter Eighty-Eight - Apologies
A month laterBernard's POVGetting back to work as an ex-convict was a tough experience for me. Not only had I lost the trust of clients, I've also lost the hope of future collaborations with other promising companies, who could have been of great help to my company. So many of my employees had dropped their resignation letters on my desk this morning, including Alice. Everyone now doubted my sincerity.A lot has really changed, both at home and at work. I also did change after a torturous month spent with my personal assistant behind bars. All thanks to Mum and a few good friends and relatives for standing by me.My attitude towards people, especially Alice, my secretary, changed also. My clinginess in the past has now been replaced with I suddenly developed a new sense of reasoning and have sworn to never make use of my position to torture anyone anymore. I felt so sorry about how bad I've treated Alice in the past and decided to apologize to her and ask about her resignation.“Goo
The Billionaire's Mistress Chapter Eighty-Nine - Business Deal
The severity of the news dawned on me slowly. I couldn't believe I could lose such a great deal that was able to fetch me millions so easily. I regretted my stupid pasts and vowed in my heart never to get back to them again. “How about Albert's? Do you think we stand any chance?” I was gripped by extreme pain and regrets. “I doubt sir. The news had spread everywhere. The media now questions the integrity of our company. It's so unfortunate we're losing out on everything,” Davis bemoaned. “Well, it's fine,” I breathed heavily, as though to console myself. “We could make a turn for the better and paint brighter pictures in the minds of people in no time.” “I believe so too, it's just that it won't be really easy to have a comeback, especially considering the situation of things. Let's keep being optimistic, though,” he comforted. “Sure.” I muttered softly. To me, the possibility of having our place back in the industry was not going to be as easy as it sounds. I knew how har
The Billionaire's Mistress Chapter Ninety - Feelings
I grumbled angrily as the resounding ring of the alarm clock jolted me from my enjoyable sleep. Last night was not like every other night. I could remember musing about getting married to Alice just before I drifted into deep sleep and coincidentally, I dreamt about the same thing. In my dream, I was walking side-by-side with Alice, her hands locked in mine, amidst the cheering of the crowd. The hall was tastefully decorated with coloured balloons and ribbons that did well to fill the entire space with an aesthetic aura. Alice looked as stunning as ever in her white satin ballgown, while looking exquisite in my black suit and trousers, complemented by a red necktie. Smiles were plastered on our faces and those of the audience. It was our marriage reception and there were several guests present to grace the occasion. Foods and drinks of different kinds and origin were presented in the buffet style for each guest to serve themselves. I couldn't help but smile at how fate destined
The Billionaire's Mistress Chapter Ninety-One - Need To Get Married
I walked into Mr Grey's office with a steady composed gait. I quickly took in the details of the place; it was spacious and cozy, just like mine, but a trifle more grandiose. He was sitting comfortably behind his mahogany desk and was busy digging deep into some files as I stepped in. He was an aged man, probably in his mid-sixties, with a slightly wrinkled face and grey hairs and beard. His husky English accent was also a dominant trait of his personality. “Hello, Mr Grey!” “Oh you're welcome, Bernard. So pleased to see you,” he averted his gaze towards me, offering his hand for a handshake. “You may have a seat,” he gestured towards the seat opposite him. “Thanks,” I muttered under my breath. I sat down as expected, but was ill at ease, especially because of the way he addressed me. I knew he was way older than I was, old enough to be my father. But how could a grown man like me be addressed in such a way? Could there be something he was trying to insinuate? “May we proce
The Billionaire's Mistress Chapter Ninety-Two - 'Can We Go Out On a Date?'
I walked briskly along the hallway and incidentally found Alice coming towards my direction. The devastation on my face transformed suddenly to a smile, as my eyes met hers. She seemed to have just walked out of her office. She stopped in her tracks as soon as she noticed I was coming. “You need to sign a document urgently,” Alice said, looking at me with a straight face. I stared at her intently as though finding it difficult to fathom the meaning of the message. My mind wasn't really interested in what she said, but her. “What document are you talking about?” I asked for clarity, as though I had an idea what she was talking about. “The Simpsons, they asked for your approval on an upcoming project,” she replied, leading the way back to her office. I followed her from behind, secretly admiring her well-rounded ass as she walked. A playful smirk played on my lips. We got into her office and she handed me the papers, still standing close to her desk. I sat down next to her an
The Billionaire's Mistress Chapter Ninety-Three - Falling For Him
Alice's POVResigning from work wasn't as easy as it sounded. I've always threatened my boss about resigning from his company, to get a job elsewhere, but I never meant it. Who could have sorted my unending bills, if I had had meant it in the real sense? Did he think I was willing to leave so soon?As I heard about his release, after serving his one month jail terms, I assumed it was a perfect opportunity to follow my heart, and not my head. The wrapped paper in the light brown sealed envelope was already seated on his desk, awaiting his approval. I also noticed that I wasn't the only one following this course, others did too. I smiled satisfactorily, thinking about how our boss was going to react. I was unaware that Mr Bernard had other plans until I found him in my office, kneeling down to plead with me to forgive him. That moment was one of the very best since I stepped into his company. I suspected something fishy, but I decided not to show it, granted that he was remorseful.“I
The Billionaire's Mistress Chapter Ninety-Four - He Cheated
“Charles!” I yelled on top of my lungs, exasperated at the activity going on in my very presence.Charles was making out with another woman, who moaned so loudly and irritatingly, feeling the entire room with their sounds. Their ripped off clothes sprawled across the floor, giving more details to what was going on.“So, you could do this to me?” I shook my head slowly in regret.Hot tears welled in my eyes while I stared disdainfully at him. My expression saddened at the bitter taste of a painful betrayal. Charles didn't utter a word. He only ignored me and continued with what he was doing, in my presence.“Can you be so shameless? This is all you could think of, huh?” I flared up angrily, watching as the two lovers made love in my presence.Only then did he pause and glare at me, still clutching onto the woman beneath him.“Look Alice, I'm having a great time right now. I'm tired of you. So tired that you've become an obligation to me. I'd appreciate it if you leave,” His words shat
