In love with a heartless billionaire

~Laurel~I could hear the gasps and the awes from the crowd. I could hear their murmurings and their whisperings.It has always been a part of my life. I learned to live with it. I had learned to live with the fact that no matter what I do, I would always be a subject for the public to discuss. Barely had my privacy. And it doesn't stop scaring the hell out of me because I knew that someday, a secret I had spent years in hiding would come into light. And I wouldn't like that all. I hated even the smallest idea of it. So to stop these insecurities, I vowed to clean up even the tiniest of mess that comes close to my secret. Because one thing's for sure, I hated everything and everyone that encounters the likes of Kurt Kenton.The secretary smiled and held the door out for me as I walked into her boss's office. She stopped me on my tracks, holding a pen and paper out for me. "Please.. I.. I have always been a big fan of yours."I feigned out a smile, taking hold of the pen and paper, sig

~~~~~~~~~~ ~Laurel~Encircling my hand around the glass, I downed my last shot of tequila. The tears were still streaming down my face and obviously there was nothing I could do about it. Kurt had insulted the little bit of pride I had for myself. And I felt hurt for allowing him do so.A man slid on the empty chair beside me. "Hey beautiful," He said covering my hand with his. "I've been watching you and I can tell that you're in a bad shape. Something went wrong? I can make you feel so better."I staggered up immediately. "Leave me alone! Stay the fuck away!" I shouted loud enough for him to hear, got hold of my purse and walked out of the club.When I had gotten to where my car was, I slumped on the floor and wept silently. When I was done, I opened my car and got in, trying to start my car but unfortunately it didn't want to start. I tried for another three times but still yet no result. It would start and then stop. I got out and tried to check what went wrong when my eyes caugh

~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~Laurel~I waited.Slowly his eyes fluttered open and the first thing he did was push me and I fell to the ground, hitting my head to the floor."You had dust under that table, didn't you?" He asked, getting up to his feet.I got up to my feet, holding my hand to my head. "Is that a way to say thank you, Kurt?""Don't you dare call me that.""At least I got to know what I wanted to know." I said with a smirk."You'd stoop this low?""I'd stoop lower to get anything I want. You said my name didn't ring a bell. But I can tell that you even remember the very first day we met.""You made the biggest mistake by doing this, Laurel. You could have killed me.""Then you would have died. Men like you die, Kurt Kenton." I moved closer to him. "What are you so afraid of? Why don't you admit that you still have those feelings for me?""Feelings? What feelings?""You remember me very well, Kurt. And it's no coincidence that you bought an organization that has a partnership with me. It

~Laurel~I was so deeply engrossed in my computer that I didn't hear the door open and even someone's footsteps."Salt lake City huh?" I was completely frightened when I heard Kurt's voice. I raised my gaze to meet his and he was standing right in front of me, his hands pushed deep into the pockets of his slacks."How did you get in? Who the fuck allowed you in without my permission?" I quipped, moving my computer aside."Are you even asking that?"I forgot. He had the power to throw someone into a pool of fear with just a glare."Fine. You got in. What do you want? Because I clearly remembered you saying that I should stay the hell away from you, and I'm doing just that so--" my words hung halfway when he threw a tabloid on my desk. I was on the first page. In it, I was wearing the exact same clothes I wore to Mirabelle's and I was covering my head with a scarf, and also wearing dark sunglasses.Under it, the words were boldly written,Laurel Hyde in salt lake City, Utah?What is t

~Laurel~Kurt's eyes roamed down my body before resting on the bags in my hands."Nothing can be kept hidden in the dark forever." Kurt said, making a pool of self consciousness to fill me.I turned to Vivian behind me. "Give us a minute, please.""Sure." She said and walked out.We glared at each other for what seemed like seconds before I cleared my throat."What are you doing here? How did yo---""Find her?" He cut in roughly. "Maybe someone wasn't being loyal after all."Zach.How dare him betray me?!That bastard will pay for this!"You told me she was dead. Didn't even need a doctor to tell me that she's mine. Although, I'll still need a DNA test, but when you said she looked like me, you weren't fooling around."I gripped his jacket. "Stay away from her." I quickly let go of him when he glared at my hand. "From a child you despise? These people here aren't nice. I can't believe that you actually gave her up to them!""Kurt, lower your voice.""Why should I? How about I go tel
