AURORA’S POV

“Dad…” I said and my voice trailed off.

I was in total shock.

My dad had never come to my workplace before. First of all, he never approved of me working, but with some resilience and slight stubbornness, I had been able to get a job and start working.

He wasn’t speaking.

Instead, he was glaring at me. The rage radiating from him seeped through my skin, burning me in the process.

I cleared my throat and asked carefully, “Do you want to come to the waiting room so that we could talk?” I asked him.

It was bad enough that I just walked out of an embarrassing situation, and I didn’t want them to see my dad glaring at me like this, or worse, my boss coming out and finding my dad like this here.

“I want to stand here,” he said gruffly.

Well, at least he was speaking now.

“Is everything okay?” I managed to ask.

The fury in his eyes doubled, and he took two angry steps towards me so quickly that I didn’t even have enough time to step back. However, after the two steps, he stopp

  • One Night Stand: The Secret Billionaire Bride   It Never Goes Away

    AURORA’S POVThe remaining hours of the day just went by like a blur and I worked like a robot, shutting down my emotions and feeling like a heap of shit.By the time I was done and ready to leave, I just didn’t feel like returning to the mansion, so I called Eudora instead.“Where are you?” I asked her.“I just closed from work and I am taking a rest in my apartment,” Eudora answered. “What’s wrong, Aurora. You sound sad,” she asked.“I am coming over,” I simply said and ended the call.I was even more relieved that she was in her apartment, because that was truly where I wanted to go instead of the hospital. I wanted a place I could lay my head and think properly. Everything just seemed to be happening all at once and it was as though I was losing total control.The drive to Eudora’s house didn’t take long, or maybe because of the way I was feeling, I didn’t even keep track of anything. One minute I was trying to flag down a taxi, and the next, I was right in front of Eudora’s apart

    ARLO’S POVGideon and I arrived at Matt Jones’s local restaurant and Gideon stopped the car. He attempted to come out of the car with me but I stopped him.“I will handle this alone,” I told him.“Are you sure?” Gideon asked.“Of course,” I responded. “I only need you to send one of my drivers down here,” I added.“Got it,” Gideon said. “Meanwhile, I will just go about my other businesses for the day,” Gideon added.After he drove out, I walked into the local restaurant. My eyes first searched for the flirty waitress from the other day, but she wasn’t anywhere to be seen. Instead, another waitress was on duty.“Good day, sir,” she said professionally.I instantly noticed the wedding band on her finger.“Would you like a table reservation or just our regular?” She asked me.“I am here to see Matt Jones, your boss, actually,” I said.“Is he expecting you?” She asked.“No, he isn’t, but we do have a business discussion, and since I was around the neighborhood, I decided to stop by. If he

  • One Night Stand: The Secret Billionaire Bride   Forced Gossip

    AURORA’S POVI resumed my position and focused on getting my job done for the day like I always did. Usually, I wouldn’t bother about what my other colleagues were doing, because I don’t have any friends at work.I always kept to myself because I didn’t want to get into trouble or engage in meaningless gossip.However, this time around, I couldn’t take my ears off what the two ladies close to me were saying, or maybe they were deliberately being loud about it so that I could hear, because they would definitely have known about my relationships and scandals.“Sometimes, I wonder why men who are engaged to be married would visit brothels,” the first one said to her friend, who was right beside her.And they were both close to me.“Ugh, that’s just gross!” The second one exclaimed in disgust. “Do you know the kind of women who get picked up in brothels?” She asked in disbelief.“And yet, some of these men would abandon their beautiful fiancées to chase after what isn’t even worth it.

  • One Night Stand: The Secret Billionaire Bride   How To Get The Pimp

    ARLO’S POV“Arlo, are you even here at all?” Gideon said, tapping my thighs.He jolted me back to reality.“Man, what’s wrong with you? You blanked out completely, and I am certain that you didn’t hear a single word I have been saying,” Gideon stated worriedly.“When did you start talking?” I asked.The last time I remembered, we had both been silent, which was what even made my mind drift to a place I never wanted to go back to in the first place. Even though I was back to reality now, my heart still ached and squeezed tightly, which was exactly why I didn’t like to think back on those dark days filled with so much tears, anger, pain, regret, and bitterness.Because it never got better.Instead, it became worst until she could no longer bear it anymore.The thought of it made my heart colder than it already was. That is exactly what it does to me. No one understands why I can’t smile or laugh like everyone else. No one understands why my heart is as cold as ice, because no one went

  • One Night Stand: The Secret Billionaire Bride   Empty Promises And Love

    ARLO’S POV“Didn’t I ask you to go to the room, Arlo?” She had asked me angrily.Then as I looked more into her eyes, I noticed that she was also ashamed.Ashamed and embarrassed that I had heard what she didn’t want me to hear or see her in so much tears and pain.“I am sorry, mum,” I had apologized meekly.“Why didn’t you go?” She had asked me bitterly.“You were so upset and unhappy, and…and I didn’t want to leave you alone,” I had responded, stuttering.I was just a little boy, but then that was half-lie and half-truth. “Still, you should have listened to me. I don’t like it when you act really stubborn, Arlo, and you know this! If you hadn’t punched that kid, you would be in school by now,” she had scolded me really angrily.I didn’t realize it then, but I got to know much later that she always liked it when I was away at school because that was the time that she had to try to beg and cajole and force Sir Bronson to accept me as his son and take responsibility.Then at night, sh
