The Billionaire's Betrayal: A love Child

The nightclub was alive with music as I twirled and shook on the dance floor. Surrounding me were my closest friends who all came to my bachelorette party to celebrate with me. I would soon marry Gabriel Moreno, one of Madrid's most eligible bachelors and the dream of many women.In the middle of my twisting and twirling, rocking to the beat of the DJ, I felt my phone buzz in my purse. At first, I ignored it, I mean I wanted to have fun but the buzzing didn't stop and curiosity got the better of me.I pulled it out and saw a message from a private number:Head to Gabriel's house immediately! There's something you must see urgently!I was confused. Who would send such a cryptic message on my bachelorette’s night? And why would they ask me to check out Gabriel's house? He would certainly be at his bachelor's party so what exactly was going on?“I'll just ignore it.” I dropped the phone back in my purse and continued dancing. However, the more I danced, the more unsettled my mind was. I k

Joyce's POV“What the hell?!” I cursed out loud and woke up feeling very disoriented. My head felt like it was slammed by a ceramic baseball bat continuously and my entire body ached. Blinking my eyes, my vision cleared a bit and I saw the white paint of the room I had woken up in.“My room is not painted white,” I muttered to myself, feeling confused and trying my best to remember how I got here, but my mind was a foggy mess. “What the hell?” I realized I was naked as I moved to sit up. I never fell asleep naked so what the hell was happening? I felt a sharp pain in between my legs and suddenly fragments of memories from last night resurfaced.Gabriel and Natalia’s betrayal, the casino, the endless booze, and then the hazy image of a handsome man in an expensive three-piece suit came to mind. He was tall and lean with wild blonde hair and stormy gray eyes. “Adrian,” I whispered, remembering his name when he introduced himself to me at the bar. My cheeks burned in embarrassment

Joyce's POV“Coming!” I answered when the doorbell rang. I hurried to open it, expecting to see the babysitter, instead, it was the mailman with a few letters in his hands. “Good morning, Ms. Joyce,” He greeted as he handed the mail to me.“Thank you,” I replied with a wide smile and took the letters. “Have a lovely day!”“Same to you ma’am.” He responded and sped off on his bike. I sighed and stepped back into my modest apartment at La Latina. Inside, Rafael, my two-year-old kid was in the living room, surrounded by toys and making a mess like he usually does. “Mama, look!” He held up a stuffed dinosaur in the air. I laughed happily and set the mail on the counter. It’s been two years. Two whole years after my tragic break up with Gabriel and my unexpected pregnancy. At first, I was in denial and wanted nothing more than to have an abortion. I wasn’t ready to raise a child then especially when I didn't know the father but with the doctor’s persistent pleas, I was convinced and

Gabriel POV“Damn it!” I screamed at the top of my voice, gripping my phone so tightly that it nearly snapped into two. Today was definitely not my best of days. I just discovered that Joyce had moved out of this apartment a long time ago and just when I was about to go home, Adrian, the man I hated the most in this world, called to tell me she was now working for him. What sort of bullshit was that? How the hell had Joyce even ended up working for him? This was literally the worst day possible.I could feel my blood boiling and my frustrations mounted as the seconds ticked by. How did things go so horribly wrong? How did she even end up there? It was like the universe itself was mocking me for my decision to let Joyce go. I nearly hurled my phone across the car but I managed to stop myself in the nick of time and take a deep breath in an attempt to calm down.“Sir, are you alright?” my driver asked cautiously as he glanced at me in the rearview mirror.“Shut up and drive!” I snap

NATALIA'S POVHis door creaked open and I stepped inside Gabriel's bedroom. He was lying on the bed, staring up at the ceiling, lost in deep thought. I approached him slowly and seductively with my robe barely clinging to my shoulders. I knew Gabriel liked this one and I intentionally draped it over my body, teasing but never fully revealing.“Gabriel,” I whispered softly and seductively, waiting for him to acknowledge me but he didn't even spare me a glance. “I’m sorry about earlier, I didn't mean to upset you. Can we just...start over?”Still nothing. He remained frozen on the bed with an emotionless expression on his face.“Please, Gabriel...Let's forget about everything and try again tonight.” I whispered, letting the robe slide off my shoulders and letting it fall to the floor, exposing my naked body to him. “We can try for a baby…isn't that what you want?”I reached out to touch him, placing my hand on his chest but he flinched, pulling away from me as if my touch burned and dis
