Married To The Heartless Billionaire 14. A favour
ADRIAN CASTILLO"I told you that I will handle it, grandfather. Just please trust me and let me do this," I pleaded on the phone."And why should I? I already gave you a month. I think I have done more than enough. Tomorrow, I want you to come with Sophia to visit me. I miss her so much," he said.I cannot understand what my grandfather sees in her. I mean at first, it was Sarah who he compliment and said I looked good with her and now it's Sophia.The moment he saw Sophia, he began to praise and compliment her. I mean Sarah made me angry but Sophia made me so irritated and angry at the same time.She always cried and those dull brown eyes of her looked innocent when they weren't. I wouldn't have suspected their family if the bride didn't get changed. They were that desperate. I mean they refused to disclose the reason why the bride got changed and that is when I started to get suspicious. I do not know if my grandfather sees it or not but I hope he does soon. That family isn't as i

SOPHIA CASTILLO"I thought you were never going to come out," Adrian said to me the moment I stepped my foot out of my dressing room."I mean you have spent more than three hours in there only for you to come out and look like this?" He clicked his tongue while staring at me from head to toe.I suddenly felt conscious and looked at myself. Firstly, I did not spend three hours in the dressing room and it is all an exaggeration from Adrian and secondly, I do not look bad.Alberto Castillo, Adrian's grandfather is the only one on Adrian's side that is nice to me.From the moment I met him, he has been nothing but nice to me compared to Adrian who always looked for a means to make the moment tense."I'm sure you must realize how ugly you look right? I mean..." He trailed off clicking his tongue."You are going to see my grandfather yet you are dressed like this? Who are you trying to impress? I mean why do you think anyone would be impressed by your dressing?" His brows rose slightly and

SOPHIA CASTILLO"Thank you," I muttered to the waiter."You are welcome," He said to me politely with a smile on his face.I heard Adrian scoff."You seem to have charmed the Waiter with those ugly eyes of yours, haven't you?" He chided.The skin between my brows creased as I stared at him with confusion. What have I don't again?"Not him staring at you so lovingly as if he has got a chance with you. You must love what you do and you know just how well to do it. I guess I am the only man immune to those eyes of yours," he chided.Alberto had just left to use the restroom and I knew Adrian would use it as an opportunity to say mean words to me but I never expected him to indirectly accuse me of seducing a man."What are you trying to say?" I asked although I knew what he was referring to."As if you do not know," he replied sourly."I think I understand why you decided to look this way. Wearing something this short and also something that barely covered your boobs, you must love to get

SOPHIA CASTILLOThe person who called my name is a high school classmate of mine. His name is Maxwell."Sophia," he called again, walking closer to our table."Max," I called back."Wow, it's been a long Sophia," he said to me before turning his attention to Albert and Adrian."Hello sir," he said to the both of them."Hello to you young man," Albert replied but Adrian said nothing. His face was rigid as he stared at Max."I'm good and you?" I asked him, sincerely interested to know because the last time I heard about him, I heard he got in an accident. "I've been fine. I just came back from London yesterday and will be around for like five days before going back," he tells me."London? You go to school there or you relocated, which is it?" I asked him genuinely interested."I relocated after my accident. I came for my cousin's birthday," he pointed at a young man seated far across our table."I see. Happy birthday to him in advance," I said.My eyes darted at Adrian."Max, meet my
Married To The Heartless Billionaire 18. Sick
SOPHIA CASTILLOI took care of Adrian all through the day when he refused to call the doctor. I had to get warm water and a towel later to help reduce his fever.In no time, he was able to sleep peacefully.I fell asleep with my head on the bed while I sat down on the floor.By the time I woke up, Adrian was awake and he was staring at me with a questioning look on his face."You took care of me?" He asked and I nodded my head before yawning with my arms stretched out."Are you still feeling sick? If so I'd call a doctor for you. I didn't call any because of your request not to," I told him getting up from where I sat."Who asked you to take care of me?" He asked in a cold tone and I felt my stomach sink."You were shivering and so I thought it would be the right thing to do," I told him."Right thing to..." He sneezed."Are you okay?" I hurried to check his temperature. "I checked your temperature last night and your fever was gone so..." I attempted to place my hand on his forehead
Married To The Heartless Billionaire 19. How it started
SOPHIA CASTILLOI went into the room to get some clothes so I could change into them. When I got into the room, I aimed to go to the dressing room and get my clothes but I saw Adrian shivering and I couldn't help but feel for him.I do not understand why he has refused to see the doctor or why he has been acting tough. I mentally contemplated with myself if I should go take a look at him or not. I felt my heart clench when I decided to walk away and do what it was I has come to do.I guess I couldn't be heartless even if I wanted to. I walked toward him and touch his forehead to feel his temperature."Ouch!" I muttered, feeling the hotness of his body on my palm."His temperature is high again," I mumbled to myself. I was tempted to get a doctor for him but I do not know how he'd react if I did and so I decided to do what it was I did for him yesterday and see if his temperature comes down. If it doesn't, I would call the doctor.I sat beside Adrian after I finished tending to him.
Married To The Heartless Billionaire 20. The reason
ADRIAN CASTILLOMr. Brian, a close client of mine disclosed that Seth Cox is going to every place he could to get help so that he would pay back the investors and save his company.Mr. Brian told me that Seth Cox only cares about being wealthy but he doesn't want to take the necessary process to be wealthy.Some days later the news came out and the investors threatened to arrest and throw his family in jail if he doesn't give them back their money. He came to my grandfather and my grandfather saw that as a perfect opportunity to get one of his daughters as my bride.When I heard the news that day I was very furious.***"What do you mean Grandfather? I cannot marry her. How can you suggest I marry someone whose reputation is questionable?" I said to my grandfather in anger.The good thing about me was that when I was angry, I never raised my voice. I was trained that way. Even in the toughest situation, I knew just how to manage the situation and keep myself composed."You do not kno

ADRIAN CASTILLO"Fuck!" I cursed.I do not know what to do at this point. Those eyes of Sophia haunted me and I wanted to give in to her and let her see her parents.I have never been one to go back on my words but for some reason, I wanted to give in and let her go see them."Maybe it is because she watches you and took care of you," I muttered to myself.That was why I didn't want her coming close to me. From the first day, I saw her, I knew she was going to be a different kind of human being and the type that I wouldn't like.She cried too much and looked at me as if she was innocent when she wasn't."Fuck!" I cursed.I inserted the key into my car and drove off. I needed to leave this vicinity for my mental health. I need to stay away just like I did before because I couldn't stand her.She had some kind of strange effect on me that I could not comprehend and I hated it because I have never found anything too hard to handle before. SOPHIA CASTILLOI woke up to my neck aching fro
