In front of hundreds of rich guests, her fiancé Evan Hartwell picked someone else. Ayanna was left heartbroken and embarrassed right at the altar, where they were supposed to get married. Ayanna turned her back on the betrayal, walked away from her future that was now ruined, and then met Gabriel Vance. Gabriel Vance is a cold, tough, and very powerful billionaire.

Left at the Altar, Claimed by a Billionaire Chapter 5: The Painful Talk
He was getting closer and closer to us because I could hear his footsteps growing louder with every second. I froze for a moment. This wasn't the time I had imagined facing him. I shouldn't have left the apartment for someone as worthless as him."Ayanna? Is that you?" he called out. His voice was filled with desperation. It was obvious how badly he wanted to talk to me.Before panic could completely consume me, Gabriel stepped in front of me and faced Evan himself. He also took my hand, as if silently telling me that he was here to protect me. The nervousness I had been feeling a while ago was immediately replaced by shock because of what he had done.I looked at him from behind while he held my hand. My heart was pounding so fast and so hard at that moment. I didn't know if it was still because of Evan or because of what Gabriel had just done."Ayanna?"Gabriel's voice sounded incredibly captivating when he spoke in the quiet park at midnight. "That's enough, Evan." He said it to Ev

Gabriel drove me back to my building after everything that happened at the store. We were both silent, neither of us wanting to start a conversation even though the atmosphere inside the vehicle was incredibly awkward. I just kept my eyes glued to the window, staring at the passing buildings even though I had already seen them a thousand times before. The moment the SUV pulled up in front of my apartment complex, I quickly thanked him, opened the door, and practically ran straight inside. Once I was safely inside my apartment, I grabbed my phone and sent him a text. I told him straight out that I would handle things by myself from now on. I did not want him stepping in to save me again because it made me look too weak to defend myself, and more than anything, I did not want him involved in my chaotic life anymore. As I walked into the living room to sit on the sofa, my parents looked at me with pure shock. They had no idea I had even stepped outside, and I purposely kept it a secret

When he dropped me off at my apartment, he first made sure there were no reporters or anyone else waiting outside for me. Once he secured the area, he let me out of the car and followed me all the way to my apartment to make sure I was safe."Call me if anything happens."That's the last thing he said before leaving.I sighed in relief because no one bothered me or asked about what had happened earlier.I went straight to my bathroom, thinking it would wash away the thoughts in my head, but I was wrong. I ended up crying like crazy while the water from the shower continued pouring over my naked body.I felt so foolish while reminiscing about all the moments Evan and I had shared over the years. We were so happy back then, so when did it all go wrong? When did he start feeling that I wasn't enough for him? Why is this happening to me?I couldn't stop my tears from falling down my cheeks, and it continued for an hour until I was too exhausted to cry anymore.When I finally stepped out o

He offered me a ride, and I agreed. I really did not want to stay on the road because I knew people would just stare at me nonstop with judgement in their eyes while I die from the humiliation and whispers.I sat in the passenger seat and stared out the window, too embarrassed to look at him or say anything. My hands were still shaking from the anger, hatred, and humiliation of what happened inside the church.As he drove, I looked around the interior of his car, feeling incredibly awkward. Running into my ex-fiancé’s uncle while fleeing from my own wedding was also embarrassing. I could only assume that he was judging me in his mind without even looking at me.My phone buzzed nonstop against my lap, and I already knew the reason why. I did not want to look at it because my mind was a complete mess. Too many questions were running through my head, and I knew that looking at those notifications and messages would make me explode with emotion.“Do not push yourself to understand this si
