THE BILLIONAIRE'S ELUSIVE LOVER Forty Eight
{Day One} "Can I help you?" "Evangeline Becker" The woman behind the desk furrowed her eyebrows "What?" "I'm here to check-in. Evangeline Becker" she clicked on a few buttons on the keyboard and then looked up at her"There is no Evangeline Becker but there is Evangeline Becker Adler. Are you her?" That bastard! How dare he add his last name to hers as if he had the right? Wasn't it enough he'd betrayed her? "Yes. Recently got married so I tend to forget the additional last name. Where should I go?" "We have your room ready. I'll have a nurse escort you" "Why?" She fired back wanting to take her anger out, on anyone "Do you think I'll steal pills from your pharmacy or something?" "It's so you don't wander and find yourself in wing C. That's where we keep all the nutcases who won't hesitate to slit your throat or burn this building down. But if you still want to go alone, I can give you directions" she hated how cool the woman's voice was. As if she too w

{Day Three} "Mrs. Adler, why are you here?" "Don't call me that" she snapped "Eva is fine" "I sense some anger towards your husband judging by the way you don't like hearing his name despite being newly married" "Anger is an understatement" "Would you like to talk about it?" "No. I'm still angry and I don't want to lose my temper" Dr. Brown narrowed his eyes. She seemed shaken up. Of course, he knew the reason but he wanted to see if she was brave enough to tell him. "Why don't you want to lose your temper? Around here, it's normal for people to lash out. In fact, we encourage it. If you don't like something, feel free to shout at the top of your lungs. Expressing yourself is not necessarily a bad thing" "Today is my last day here. I get to go home tomorrow. Right?" "Yes. Are you excited to leave?" Before she could answer, he added "I'm sure your fans will be glad to see you" that got him the reaction he wanted. "What do you mean? Who told

She was going to kill them all. Eva, that idiot Lincoln and everyone in that fucking family. Okay, maybe not Rossy and Lily-May but the other two were dead. One was the bane of her existence while the other was the fool she'd chosen to love. How could she have been so stupid? Just as she'd predicted, Lincoln hadn't said anything about the video she'd shown him. In fact, he acted as if he didn't see it. The moron had chosen to sleep on the couch and she didn't bother trying to convince him otherwise because she needed the space. Their relationship was slowly falling apart but for the first time, Sabrina couldn't care less. She was done coddling him. If he wanted to end their relationship, she wasn't going to beg him to stay. For a long time, she'd known the reason for most of their fights was lack of communication. But how did you talk to someone who wasn't willing to listen? Lincoln refused to admit that Eva was fucked up and needed help. As if doing that would magically make her bet

Was it possible that he was wrong? He went through his memories, trying to see if there were signs he'd missed. As far as he could remember, Eva was a little grumpy but so were all teenagers. He remembered clear as day when Vivienne had given birth. And the weekends he'd spent with the twins when they were young. His sister had told him they were bound to be different. Just because they shared the same physical features didn't mean they would have similar personalities. How the fuck was he supposed to know something was wrong with Eva? Every time he asked her, she said she was fine. Whenever she had problems, she went to him and he helped her solve them. He'd done everything he could to make sure they had a roof over their heads and didn't go to bed hungry. Even with the insurance Viv and Nolan had taken, it still wasn't easy to raise two girls on his own. Not when he himself hadn't finished growing up. But he'd tried his damn best. Telling him that after everything, he'd failed... F

"You have a visitor. A Lincoln Morris?" "I'll be right out" she said combing her hands through her hair. Eva looked at herself in the bathroom mirror before exiting her room. She'd started getting comfortable and had even found three people she could base her characters on. But at the end of the day, no one liked being in a mental hospital. She was glad Linc had come around. She'd stayed there knowing he would eventually go for her. He was sitting in one of the chairs in the leisure room. Except for a janitor, there was no one else "Linc" she said going over to him. He got up and hugged her but she noticed his usual smile was nowhere to be seen. It was to be expected. With everything going on with Sabrina, how could he be happy? "Eva, how are you?" "I'm fine. I get fed everyday so I have no complaints" "Adler told me you decided to stay" She shrugged "Maybe I do have a problem that needs fixing. He's my husband now and I want to please him. I talk to the doctor for two ho
THE BILLIONAIRE'S ELUSIVE LOVER Fifty Three
"Get out of my way" He let his eyes roam all over her face. Her eyes were clear but there were bugs she'd tried to cover up with makeup. Her cheeks were hollow and the veins on her neck were too pronounced. He hadn't seen her for over a week and he didn't like the way she looked. Why wasn't she taking care of herself? She was supposed to get better. Not worse. "What do you want Eva?" "That is none of your business" Mason leaned on the wall beside her, angling his body to block her view of Sabrina's room "Aren't you tired of all this? Can't you stop what you're doing and concentrate on getting better?" Her eyes flashed. "What's it to you what goes on in my family? You might have tricked me into this marriage but that doesn't mean you're a part of our family. So stop meddling and leave" "She almost had a miscarriage. Would you be okay knowing part of it was your fault?" "Almost being the keyword here. It didn't happen so why is everyone painting me the devil?" "I know dee

She cracked her eyes open, two things registering in her foggy mind. One, she needed water or she might die from thirst, and two, she was lying on top of someone. The answer came seconds after. Mason. His cologne and faint aftershave surrounded her, cocooning her, filling her senses as if to prove to her that he hadn't been lying about what he said yesterday. (I won't leave you. I promise I will never leave you) Wasn't that what everyone told her? They promised not to leave but in the end, they broke their promise. First her parents, Rossy and now Linc. No matter what she did she couldn't make them stay. Mason would also leave. It was only a matter of time before he got tired of her shit -as Sabrina had so nicely put it- and walked away. She wondered if it would be easier to leave first. Not pack her bags and move to another country but erase herself from the world. It was already full as it was and she would only be making space for new lives. Worthy lives. Like the baby, Sabrina w

"I'm sensing a pattern here""What pattern? I just like the movie""This is the third movie with the same actress. Do you have a crush on her?"Mason grabbed the remote, feigning ignorance "If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have noticed it""Liar" she hit him with a pillow. He grabbed it, kissed her forehead, and pressed play. They spent the next hour and a half watching the movie. At least, he did. Because Eva fell asleep halfway through, with her head resting on his shoulder. Three weeks had passed since her meltdown at the hospital. She'd tried to push him away by telling him all the awful things she'd done. She expected him to leave the way others had done but he was determined to show her that nothing she said would change his mind. He didn't expect her to be perfect. Just herself. Just as he'd predicted, the board members had been angry. They chose Rafael Easton, his CFO, as the temporary CEO until he came back to his senses, their words not his. Al
