BIANCA’S POV

I sighed when I saw it was my mother. Quickly, I wiped away my tears with the back of my hands. I couldn’t let her know I’d been crying. When using my hands to wipe didn’t help much, I lowered and used Richard’s shirt. It was teardrops, it wouldn’t leave a stain, so I didn’t have to worry. I cleared my throat repeatedly until it felt less thick.

The call ended because I wasted some much time, and instead of waiting for her to call back, I decided to call her myself. After a few seconds, she answered.

“Hey sweetie,” her voice blared from the speaker. It sounded cheerful as usual. Sweet and warm, like a songbird.

I tried to match her tone even though I knew I couldn’t from how I was feeling.

“Hey Mum,” I said with a forced smile as if she could see me physically.

“How are you doing?”

I paused for a bit before answering. “I’m fine, mum. What about you and Dad and Thea?”

It’s been just a day since I last saw them, yet it felt like a month or even more.

  • Arranged Marriage: Falling For The Playboy Son Of The Alpha   Getting her back(The End)

    Chapter 174 RICHARD’S POV Approaching B’s family house, I saw B stepping out, but the moment she saw me, she ran back inside. My heart hurt from seeing how she was avoiding me. “B please wait. Hear me out first. I have something important to tell you. The pregnancy was fake…I know everything now…” I said as I rushed out of the car and chased after her. But I didn’t think she heard me as she quickly slammed the door shut down on getting inside. I banged against the door, screaming for her. Apologizing. Pouring my heart out and letting her know how much I loved and missed her. I didn’t care if I was constituting a nuisance or being absurd, I just wanted her forgiveness. I wanted her back. But it all fell on deaf ears. No one opened the door for me. I wondered if my dad had come like he promised. Maybe he hadn’t yet. I wondered if her parents were around. Surely, they won’t approve of my behaviour and I didn’t even know how to explain the whole situation to their understa

  • Arranged Marriage: Falling For The Playboy Son Of The Alpha   kicking her out

    Chapter 173 RICHARD'S POV By the time I made it back to the apartment, it was almost dusk. Heather’s parents had the heart to forgive her for lying to them. Despite all she did, they still loved her as their one and only daughter and were willing to take her back. After they left, my father noticed how troubled and unhappy I was, and I couldn’t help but tell him everything that happened. I needed someone to talk to. Someone who could understand and advise me. And right then, my father was the only one I could turn to. He advised me to be patient, to give B more time and not act rashly to avoid losing her completely. He also promised to go see her parents intercede on my behalf and convinced me to head back to the apartment and rest because I really needed it. As I was approaching my apartment from the elevator, I noticed the door was left ajar. I didn’t put too much thought into it because it was probably Gideon. I had seen him earlier that morning before stepping out.

  • Arranged Marriage: Falling For The Playboy Son Of The Alpha   The Truth

    Chapter 172 RICHARD’S POV I wasn’t sure where B could have gone, but the only place that came to my mind was her family house. I just hoped she hadn’t gone to any other place. It’ll be hard finding her if she did. No matter what, I had to get her back. I want her back. Not only is she the love of my life, but she’s also carrying my unborn child. She will be the mother of my children. Rushing into the room, I hurriedly pulled out the drawer of the nightstand, searching for my car keys. I couldn’t remember where last I kept it but I think it should be in the drawer because I usually left it there. Instead of finding my car keys, I found something else. My brows drew in curiously as I took out the paperwork. Going through the contents, terrible regrets assailed me as I shook my head in agony. B was pregnant. All these while, she has been carrying my child but kept it from me. All these while, I have been hurting and treating her badly not knowing my seed was growing inside her.

  • Arranged Marriage: Falling For The Playboy Son Of The Alpha   Leaving for good

    CHAPTER 171 RICHARD’S POV The news of Heather’s pregnancy hit me like a shockwave. I was so shocked I struggled to accept it. How did it happen? How am I the one responsible for it? As far as I knew, Heather and I hadn’t gotten into any intimate act since she returned. There must be a mistake somewhere. B was so shattered she couldn’t even look at me. But I wished she could just listen to what I had to say before jumping to any conclusions. This was all a misunderstanding. I knew nothing about it. I know I have been cold and mean towards her lately, but that was only because of the way she’d been acting towards Heather. I believe with time she’ll stop seeing Heather as a threat and apologize for her actions. I cared for Heather and promised to be by her side to make up for all those years I failed to protect her from Ben. But that doesn’t mean I’ll go as far as sleeping with her. I made it clear to her that I loved B and only B now. What Heather and I shared was all in the

  • Arranged Marriage: Falling For The Playboy Son Of The Alpha   Shock of my life

    CHAPTER 170BIANCA’S POVIt’s been almost a week now. That night I went out of the apartment, I wasn’t thinking straight. I was losing my mind. I had no one else to run to except Nina. She was the only one who could understand me right now and tell me what to do. At this point, I was considering a divorce. Divorce him and move on….He lied about loving you….He never loved you….He only agreed to this marriage because his father wanted him to… you were only a second option, a plan B.Nina advised me not to give up on him yet. She said if he truly loved me then he’ll come for me. She also said I should threaten him on leaving the apartment and if he persisted, then I’ll make him choose between me and Heather. That was a good idea. The only way I could bring an end to this once and for all. It was either her or me. And I know Richard will choose wisely because deep down, he still loved me. That bitch was only putting a blindfold over his eyes, but it’s only a matter of time before I ta

    CHAPTER 169HEATHER’S POVBy the time I was done adjusting myself, getting everything together and reaching downstairs, Richard was already seated on the sofa of the living room watching a movie.Thank goodness he hasn’t brought the drinks. I sighed in relief. That would have ruined the whole plan.While Richard and I were in my room, I heard the entrance door squeak open and slam shut. That meant the bitch has gone out. That makes everything a lot better. I hope she never comes back. I hope she gets hit by a bus or truck or falls off a cliff and her body is never found. As it stands now, that will make things a lot better now.“Hey,” I smiled at Richard as I took a seat very close beside him. “What are you watching?”He looked at me with a smile before looking back at the TV.“I just turned on the TV and found the movie interesting,” he said. He grabbed the remote and pressed the information button to check the title and description. “It says ‘The Idea of You.’”“Ok,” I beamed a smi
