A Contract with the Billionaire One-hundred and two: Homewrecker 2
Amelia ran out of the church premises into the quiet street with tears in her eyes. Thankfully, the church was built in a quiet area, not near the busy streets of New York where everyone could see her. They’d also chosen this church to prevent unnecessary traffic and the presence of paparazzi that might want to film the ceremony and now, she couldn’t be more happier that they’d actually chosen it. Tears ran down her eyes as she continued running with her child in her arms. She wasn’t sure where she was headed but all she wanted was to get far away from the church and all of the people in it. But then, she heard the sound of a car heading towards her, and she increased her speed.With the weight of the child in her arms and the large skirt of her dress, it was hard to run fast but she tried her best, wishing that whoever it was wasn’t coming for her because she wasn’t sure she could look into any of their faces. But eventually, the car slowed down beside her.“Amelia, please let me hel
A Contract with the Billionaire One-hundred and three: Homewrecker 3
The entire Davidson’s family and Selena were all gathered at Clifford’s home, awaiting the arrival of the family doctor, Dr. Hansel. Ryan kept pacing, wishing he could go in search of Amelia while his parents dealt with Selena but he couldn’t do that. It was his mess and he had to clean it up. He wanted to know the truth before facing Amelia again. His heart was beating wildly, from fear of Selena’s words being true. He didn’t know what he’d do if she was truly pregnant for him but he wished it was one of her deceitful plans as usual to get him in her webs, and God help her if it was a lie because he’d truly strangle her to death this time around.“What’s taking him so long?” Li na asked, staring at her husband with worry but Clifford reached for her and circled his arms around her waist.“He’s on his way. We’ll know the truth soon. Breath,” he murmured, seeing how strung out she looked. Suddenly, they heard the sound of the door opening and footsteps followed before a younger man ap
A Contract with the Billionaire One-hundred and four: A home away from home
It’s been two days since Amelia ran away with her daughter and Ryan was yet to find her. He’d contacted the police to give a missing person report and they were currently in search of her but so far, nothing had been found. Ryan was gradually losing his mind. He’d never expected that Selena could go to this extent to ruin his happiness. He wanted to get back at her for hurting him and for breaking his home, but all he wanted was to find Amelia and tell her the truth.He’d ordered everyone to stay away from him, including his family and even Gretchen, his housekeeper. He didn’t need anyone around and he definitely didn’t want them giving him sympathetic looks. It would break him more to see them feel sorry for him. He wanted to handle it all alone but he wouldn’t stop until he’d found her.Ryan sat at the breakfast bar, staring at his phone screen and also staring at Amelia’s phone that was beside his. The moment he’d run out of his parents home two days ago, his first instincts had be
A Contract with the Billionaire One-hundred and five: A Better Opportunity
It’s been almost a week since Amelia’s disappearance and Ryan was gradually losing his mind. His parents and close relatives were greatly baffled. All attempts to find her had been in vain. They’d even threatened Selena, hoping she knew of her whereabouts but after a few days, they realized she didn’t know where Amelia had gone. While everyone was troubled by the sudden disappearance of Amelia and her child, Benjamin, and Adeline were secretly happy that things were going in their favor.Benjamin and Lara especially, had seen Selena’s disruption of the wedding as the perfect plan to have gotten Amelia into their waiting claws but as no one had expected the sudden turn of events, they’d missed that chance and they were greatly annoyed by it. Adeline, on the other hand, saw Amelia’s absence as the perfect time to finally draw the family’s attention to the reality that Ryan had failed them twice.He was expected to be married at thirty in order for him to get the family’s inheritance and
A Contract with the Billionaire One-hundred and six: A new direction
The next evening, all the elders of the Davidson’s family, alongside Adeline, Benjamin and Ryan, were gathered at Clifford’s home for the urgent meeting that Adeline had called for. Some of them wondered what it was about but the ones that she’d previously met, knew what she wanted to discuss. Scowls and expressions of irritation masked their faces as they all sat, waiting for her to speak. Ryan on the other hand, was barely listening to whatever was being said. His mind wasn’t there.Amelia was yet to be found and he had no interest in whatever anyone had to discuss but his parents had made it compulsory for him to attend, informing him that Adeline wanted to see the eldest members of the family, including him and her son.“We’re all here, Adeline. Why don’t you state the reason for this meeting?” Clifford asked as soon as everyone was seated in the large living room.Adeline glanced around and cleared her throat. Before arriving at Clifford’s home, she’d planned with Benjamin on how

He was unconscious but the doctor told them that he was in a coma.Li na sat beside his unconscious body, holding onto his arm while she wailed silently. Clifford, on the other hand, stood at the far end of the room, watching his son, who was on a life support machine, with a fearful expression etched on his face. From the moment he received the news of Ryan’s fatal accident, the fear of losing his only son had riddled him and he couldn’t shake it off.For the last twenty-four hours since his unconscious body was rushed to the hospital, he was yet to regain consciousness, not even move a part of his body. His body’s temperature was dangerously low but the doctor assured them that he was still holding on to life and will be well soon.Clifford was beginning to regret forcing Ryan to attend the meeting that Adeline had called. When he’d in
A Contract with the Billionaire One-hundred and eight: Reconciliation
Amelia stared at the night sky, full of stars, and drew in a deep breath, before wrapping her arms around herself, as goose bumps broke out of her skin from the light breeze that was blowing. It was getting late but she didn’t want to go to bed yet. Dora was already sleeping soundly in Jian’s bed like she’d been doing since they arrived. Jian seemed to be enthralled by the toddler’s presence and she didn’t mind because it gave her the time to sort out her messy life.After all that Jian told her regarding the incident that had happened at her wedding, she didn’t know where to start from. A part of her blamed herself for running away at the first sight of trouble but the other half was angry at Ryan for giving his ex-wife so much leverage in their lives and for not also informing her of all that had happened in her absence.If only he’d told her, then she could have handled it better but deep down, she knew it doesn’t excuse her flighty habit.Would Ryan still want her after she’d quic

He’d informed them that he had some important message to pass on to them. Benjamin and Adeline were also there, and so were Amelia and his daughter.

Li na glared at her. Le
