Return Of Billionaire Heiress 37. Our New Life
~Esperanza's POV~I was missing him. More than I thought I would. Maybe it was the effect of always being around him. I didn't know it until today, but I've developed a habit of being in touch with him. Talk to him whenever I wanted. Meet him whenever I wanted. But I haven't heard his voice for the past two days. He just texted me once a day. Reminding me that he remembers I'm there in his life. And... Somehow it feels incomplete. I wanted to go back to my place but Grandpa asked me to stay. The house just looks like bricks and decorations to him in Diego's absence so he wanted me to stay till he comes back. Though he has already discussed the closest dates of our wedding, I couldn't agree with his plans. I don't want it to be a grand, fat wedding with hundreds of guests, but I can't seem to find the best excuse to decline his dream politely. This is my second wedding, but his grandson's first. And last. And this time it wasn't me making up stories in m
Return Of Billionaire Heiress 36. Two Years
~Juliana's POV~ I thought the bitch would die right after being thrown on the streets, but she found another bed to warm. I told Carlos to put an end to her life so she wouldn't become a threat to us, but he didn't listen. Neither did Evangelina. They both thought it would be great to see her suffer. The same way Evangelina suffered for years while she received all the princess treatment. But gosh! How do I keep her in control now? That Rowland brat is making her do things that I thought she would never be able to do in this lifetime. And now, she was getting on my nerves. I already had enough of her crybaby ruining my nights. The least I could expect was to be at peace, seeing her shedding tears in slums while I enjoyed every single penny that she wasted like it was nothing. My blood kept boiling, my nails kept digging into my flesh. If I don't stop her right here, she'll soon take away everything from me. I worked so hard to be where I am today;
Return Of Billionaire Heiress 35. Turn the tables
~Third Person's POV~ Using Diego's closet in his absence felt like an invasion. Esperanza took her new brown tailored formal suit that fit her like a dream and walked to the room where she was staying in her newfound home. The changes were new and big. And for both, she wasn't prepared. But she knew she couldn't delay any of them. One would silence the world's questions about her character, and the other would bring her back to the world that belonged to her once. Pairing her attire with black stiletto heels, she applied a nude brown lipstick and kept her light brown hair straight in a side partition. The sleek look gives her the inner confidence and calm that the outer fails to provide. It wasn't loud. But enough to make her push the boundaries that people in her past created around her. "All the best, my child," Mr Rowland gave her his blessing. A soft smile on his face, "They'll ask you questions which will make you doubt yourself, but..." His e
Return Of Billionaire Heiress 34. Just Trust
~Esperanza's POV~ I felt betrayed... I was a fool to feel that way, but... Yeah... I was being a fool. Somewhere along the way, I had convinced myself that I knew him. Not personally, maybe. But professionally, at least. We worked together. We spoke. We planned. We trusted each other in silence. Or so I thought. But the way he left without meeting, without talking... It kind of gave me the cold realization that the 'everything' we had was actually nothing at all. He knew all about me. Whether I told him or he found out on his own, he knew it all. My past. My failures. My scars. Whereas I only knew about his family. Not the shadows he has been fighting. Not the pain he has buried deep inside him. There's something. Maybe a lot... But I'm not aware of any of it. My eyes fell on Mr Rowland. If anyone could tell me the truth about Diego, it would be him. But I didn’t want answers filtered through love or protection. I wanted Diego to tell me h
Return Of Billionaire Heiress 33. Something Was Changing
~Esperanza's POV~My shoulder still ached, but it didn't feel heavy to lift. The painkillers worked wonders, but the stiffness was still there. At first, my whole life flashed in front of my eyes. Giving me the same panic as the first time when I accidentally got locked in my playroom. But the moment I realized it wasn't accidental, my whole perspective changed from panic to numbness. And I wouldn't have realised it if I weren't here today. If I weren't who I am today. I thought just like last night, I was accidentally trapped in my playroom but yesterday told me not everything is an accident. And that gave me the strength to fight the darkness. But not with power, with numbness.Now, I wonder if I was trapped there out of a pure mistake or intentionally. Whatever it was, I need to figure it out as soon as I can. Exactly the way I did it last night. I still remember the day clearly, even though I was only six. I was playing alone in the playroom that Mom built for me while sh
Return Of Billionaire Heiress 32. Comfortably Weird
~Diego's POV~ My heart should be at ease seeing her sitting beside me, but it wasn't. She looked way too calm. Composed in a way I didn't imagine her to be in. I feel like I was all over the place more than her. The car came to a halt, and her head turned to me, "Your place..." "Our place..." I heavily breathed out. As I opened the door for her, my hands trembled. The fear, guilt, pain, and numbness still haven't left my body. It's like it was still there watching and making me relive all of it over and over. I chuckled, her hand felt calmer than mine. It wrapped around mine way too gently. For the first time, I felt as if I was being treated like broken glass. "You don't have to treat me like I would break," I softly said. "But you did. Did you think I left?" Her question came out of nowhere. I don't know whether I should answer it or not. She was putting her faith in me while I was breaking one thing after another, thinking she left me the same way she did.
