Claimed By My Billionaire Boss Chapter Seven: Trapped Between Love And Threat
Sophie’s hands trembled as she stared at the message on her phone. Her throat went dry.No.No. That didn’t make sense.She put down her phone and glanced toward the entrance. Jerome hadn’t returned yet.Her mind raced.‘Who knew?’She didn’t have any friends.She hadn’t even told anyone about her meeting with the Kens. ‘Not even Mum. Nobody knew about it at the time. Except…(gasps)’‘…Jerome’Her heart skipped violently at the thought.‘No…’ she whispered, shaking her head. ‘It can’t be…’But the doubt had already planted itself deep within her chest—and it made her heart ache…burn.‘All this time?’She let out a raspy laughter.She should’ve known. She should’ve known that she was a nobody.Jerome made her feel special and she fell foolishly—why would he want to have anything to do with her?.She sank back into the chair, her chest rising unevenly.Maybe she was just overthinking things.Maybe this was all a coincidence.But deep down, she knew better.Jerome had been too kind…to

"Sophie Richards!” Sophie turned around to find Shelagh approaching her menacingly.“What do you want?” Sophie asked, arms folded.By this time they were all at the entrance door; Shelagh walked very close to Sophie but was stopped by Ryan who stepped in between them.“We both know you do not fit in this lifestyle Sophie. Jerome will dump you in a bit no matter how hard you try to seduce him and replace me” an evil grin formed on her lips.Sophie walks around Ryan and closer to Shelagh.“Look around you Shelagh”, She began “You forced your way here. You are the one trying to fit in here. So I’d advise you to leave my husband and I to our privacy”“(Laughing maniacally) your husband Sophie?, you know- -you’re really good at fantasizing bu-““Sweetheart” Jerome stepped in, his hand was on the small of Sophie’s back. “Let’s go in. Ryan, take care of this nuisance” Sophie inwardly face-bumped herself ‘did he just call me sweetheart? Or am I having a weird dream?’ Her hand felt very s

'Be careful'? She tried to make sense of the message she'd been sent."You might get a headache if you keep your brows furrowed like that for another hour"Mrs Robinson was pouring her another glass of milk"(sighs)Mrs Robinson, (whispering) you must trust the Kens very much""I've had no cause not to. (Hesitates) why do you ask Miss?""Oh, nothing, just trying to trust them myself""If there's an issue, you know you can always go to Sir Ken right""(scoffs) yeah sure""Are you ready?"Sophie stood up with a frightJerome's tall frame stood gracefully at the top of the staircase--already in a black suit; the jacket did little to disguise the broadness of his shoulder and firm chest,Sophie was done eating in less than an hour and so they both headed to her mother's hospital. None of the drivers went with them except Ryan, Jerome's bodyguard.“Thank you sir, mere words can't express how grateful I am to you” She said staring at Jerome. He looked at her, she was not pressed against the

She quickly pushed Jerome off her and moved as far away from the couch as she could.Ryan averted his gaze, cursing his stars for coming in at the wrong time. 'I'm a dead man' he cursed under his breath.He stared at his boss who was just few steps away from him."I didn't mean to boss...I didn't know you were busy, otherwise I swear I'd have waited""Ryan," Jerome's voice was as calm as usual "wait for me downstairs"Ryan's run made Sophie stifle a chuckle."Funny huh?" "What? I..um..I just-""You'll want to re-apply your gloss"Her face flushed a bright red matching her swollen lips; She bent her head slightly, staring at the floor with faked interest."Jerome," he looked at her bowed head and imagined all the things he'd rather have it do other than looking at the floor 'I'll take out the marbles if she continues to look at it like that'"What's wrong?""Um..I'm not sure why Ryan was scared but...I-i know he's really good at his job from what I've seen so far"He stared at her wit

Ryan glanced at Sophie and back at Jerome. "Mum" Jerome seemed to understand Ryan's gestures, "Please ask Seth to keep Sophie company" Seth's emergence surprised everyone "Please come with me ma'am" he beckoned and Sophie followed him. "Abducted!" Mrs Ken screamed after hearing Ryan's report. "How's that possible? I personally asked Seth to check on her immediately Sophie got home...I got a report that she was discharged from the hospital because she was unable to commence treatment". "When did this happen?" Jerome's calm expression baffled Ryan.'He probably doesn't care about Sophie after all' Ryan thought to himself."Boss, i gathered all the camera footage from around the Richards' residence and there was no sign of any visitor..last person sighted was Miss Richards--just before she came here.""I need more - go to all
Claimed By My Billionaire Boss Chapter Two: Hope Came With A Price
On entering their apartment, Sophie froze--her Mum was seated on their only armchair. "Hi, Mum. Didn't the doctor say you needed more rest?" Sophie asked in confusion "Yes Sophie, but the doctor thought the house is a better place to rest, plus, the smell of antiseptic was making me feel nauseous".Mrs Richards knew she was very bad at lying especially to her daughter, Sophie, but she was already too much of a burden to her, or so she thought.'I can't tell her that Doctor Byrnes couldn't keep an inpatient who hasn't started any procedure' "Well, I do not like that he discharged you without first letting me know", Sophie tried to distract herself from her mother's lie, she knew the obvious reason as to why her Mum was discharged.No payment has been made yet, neither for the dialysis nor for the transplant, in actual fact, there was no space for an inpatient who hasn't made any payment. Doctor Byrnes only spared them a few days out of pity, but he could not go in with it. Sophie di
