THE BILLIONAIRE'S MISTRESS Meeting the Davies
“Yes. Bye.” Ruth turned to Chris who was staring at her intently. “What?”It was a Monday morning and Christine who still had time on her hands watched as Ruth talked on the phone to Alex. She seemed to like him and that pleased Christine a lot.“I was hoping you’d leave the house today. No shopping or dates today?” Christine asked, taunting her friend.“Actually, today’s the day I get to meet Peter Pencraft.” Ruth smiled, jumping off the bed to the dressing table to get a curler for her hair.“Alex’s dad?” Christine asked“Yes,” Ruth replied humming her favorite song.“That’s nice. I was hoping you’d go out so–““So you can invite a guy, isn’t it?” Ruth mocked“Aha, as if I ever will,”“You need to get a guy though. If you continue this way, you’ll end up an old unmarried woman with cats.”“That doesn’t sound so bad.”Ruth turned to Christine in fake horror. “Do not say that girl, that’s a tough life to live.”“Thank you for your concern, I’m off to work,” Christine said and picked u
THE BILLIONAIRE'S MISTRESS Can I kiss you?
Soon after they had finished eating, Alex and Mr. Richard went together to have a business talk —as Mr. Richard called it, but Ruth knew her father was going with Alex to talk about the marriage plans.He also was as desperate as her mother when it came to Alex. He was eager to see both of them get married and Ruth knew it was just so he could make a name for himself in his industry. Pencraft's company and her father's company were in the same industry, making them a competition. The world knew R&D stood nowhere near The Pencrafts both in worth and in popularity. While The Pencrafts had their A-game on, scoring the top position amongst businesses in the same industry, R&D was barely keeping their third spot, constantly shuffling with the fourth spot. So this marriage was a big deal to the entire family."Snap out of whatever you are thinking of and follow me to my room," Rhoda ordered, leading the way to her room.Ruth got to her mother's room and plopped on the couch in the sittin
THE BILLIONAIRE'S MISTRESS Running to you
"Yesterday we kissed and I got so turned on." Ruth smiled at her reflection on her phone before turning to her friend's bewildered face."With the way, you guys are going, you'll get proposed to soon," Christine commented, spilling some popcorn from the bowl in her hand as she bounced on the couch."That would be nice, at least this courting stage will be over," Ruth replied, picking the remote to change the channel."Are you that eager to marry him?" Christine asked, "It is fun to watch you guys, just last month you were complaining about how fast he was going and now you're so eager to marry him, that's cute.""I cannot help but think of Michael," Ruth said blatantly."Are you crazy!""Stupidly horny, yes." Ruth smiled. She knew her thoughts were crazy, but she couldn't hold it."I thought you'd changed.""It's not my fault he wants to kiss me and make me look at the stars for hours, calling it bliss. He got me flustered and had me watch the stars, he didn't even get the memo when I
THE BILLIONAIRE'S MISTRESS The proposal
"Where am I going to meet you?" Ruth asked as the driver drove down a lonely, dark path."Somewhere special," he said over the phone.Alex had sent her a message hours earlier, telling her to dress up and come to him. He told her a car was waiting for her just in front of her apartment. He told her the driver would take her down to where he was. When she dressed up and got out of her apartment, she saw the driver where Alex said he would be."What surprise do you have in store for me?" She asked him."This one is the best," he answered and she could imagine the smile on his face."You have a lot of time on your hands these days. You've been paying attention to me nonstop," she commented dryly hoping he noticed the sarcasm over the phone."I always have time for you."She only sneered in response"Wait for it..." He suddenly said after a while of silence, building anticipation. Ruth looked around, unsure if he was around for him to have known the location of the car. The car came to
THE BILLIONAIRE'S MISTRESS Awkward Pizza
"I can't believe I'm getting married soon. Like I've never dreamt of it happening till I turn thirty but now, barely three months after meeting Alex, I'm getting married," Ruth chattered over the phone to her cousin."It's surprising, I know. I mean... the last time I was with you, you were nursing feelings for that lawyer man while sleeping with Michael by the side," Sonia said over the phone, "Now you have to stay committed to one man for the rest of your freaking life?""That part is what scares me the most. How do I stay committed to just one man till I grow and get wrinkles?" Ruth laughed, "It's a lot to take in but I have no choice. The faster this goes, the earlier I become his wife. I wonder what life as his wife would be like. I want to know if he's someone I'll stay with or leave after a few years.""And what are the criteria for staying or leaving?""He has to be good in bed...""Ruth!" Christine perked up from her bed. Ever since Ruth started her phone conversation with So
THE BILLIONAIRE'S MISTRESS Insulted & Threatened
Christine heaved a sigh as she walked into the large living room. Her steps faltered as she stood in the middle of the room taking in everything around her like it was her first time there. A small smile sat on her face as her mind wondered how she thought Ruth lived her whole life in a house that could pass for a palace but it wasn't a big thing to have anymore.The first and last day she came into this house, she had commented on how high the ceiling was and how the chandelier seemed like a constellation. That same day, Rhoda called her a gold-seeking thief because of her relationship with Ruth. —That day was a mess and Christine could remember walking out of the house in tears. She knew it wasn't her fault she was an orphan. It wasn't her fault she was poor. It wasn't her fault Ruth wanted to be friends with her and wasn't trying to mop off Ruth but she couldn't convince Rhoda otherwise. She avoided Ruth for a week straight until the latter came to apologize saying her mum had
THE BILLIONAIRE'S MISTRESS The Perfect Closure
Alex sat in the middle of the rowdy club wishing he hadn't gone there in the first place. His small circle of friends, upon seeing the tabloids on his engagement posted on media outlets, called him out to celebrate his upcoming wedding. To do that, they invited him to the club he had first met his bride-to-be and held a small get-together for him. In less than an hour after getting there, talking and binge-drinking, the guys dispersed, going into the crowd of dancing bodies for their catches for the night, leaving him alone on the club's vip couch, bored and tipsy, and maybe just a little drunk. All in all, he regretted the night. His mind haphazardly wandered from the first day he had met Ruth, to the first day he met Christine, to his first date with Ruth and incidental dates with Christine, to him acknowledging his weird feelings for Christine and how her reaction was and then to the point of it all, his coming marriage with a girl he loved —but did he? His fuzzy gaze wandered
THE BILLIONAIRE'S MISTRESS The Wedding Day
The sweet ringing of the bells as the vehicle approached the church made Christine smile —her first genuine smile that morning."Oh my God! Chris it is really happening! I am getting married!" Ruth shrieked happily.Christine turned away from the window and smiled at her friend. It was indeed happening."What?" Ruth suddenly quit smiling and her large eyes stared blankly at Christine. "Is something on my face? Did that makeup artist ruin something?" She asked in panic.Christine smiled even deeper. She took her friend's hands and squeezed with assurance."You are perfect Ruth. There has never been a bride as perfect as you," she whispered and Ruth melted by her words."Aww, you are such a dove. You always cheer me up," Ruth said squeezing Christine's hands too.This was a moment, Christine had been desperately waiting for after the episode at the bar. She needed to get away but she had to stay and witness this day.Now that it was finally here, she couldn't help but feel happier despi
