The billionaire's addiction CHAPTER 16
JENNIFERMy back hit the door with a dull thud, and I exhaled the trapped air hard through my mouth. “Whoos! that was too close.”The medium-sized box slipped from my hands and landed on the marble floor with a weighty thud.I should’ve tossed it the second I saw the vague inscription on it, but no, curiosity had me in a chokehold.I stood there, breath held, listening. No footsteps. No creaking floors. Good. At this stage, the less people knew, the better.Hands trembling, I peeled open the lid,and froze. My stomach dropped.Inside, sealed neatly in a Ziploc bag, was a folded ultrasound image, edges curled and worn. My heart clenched as the date stamped at the top burned into my eyes. That day was a blur, when the doctor told us. I had been so overwhelmed I couldn’t remember where I’d left it.I guess someone found it But who?Taped to the back of the image was a sheet of paper. Bold, cruel letters screamed:“And there’s more where this came from.”I flipped it over, my fingers stif

LARRYI breathe in the morning air, the coolness slapping my skin immediately. I feel a little chill. shoving the inner thoughts of going back in to abort the run out of my mind.It's a run, after all. I know within minutes I’ll be begging for my body to return to its chilled state.In fact, I need it—to cool the fire burning inside of me before it devours me completely.The sharpness I feel right now only reminds me of one thing: I'm still alive—not dead, like the way my body makes me believe, just tricked into thinking I am.The towering gate opens to reveal a stretch—the expanse of greenery and trees spread across the Davidson estate.I run my hand through my hair.The 30-minute talk with Jennifer replays in my head.I am pregnant.My chest tightens. It burned deep into my ribs like someone jabbed a hot iron into me and left it there.Her voice still echoes in my ear.“Gosh, she makes me so angry.” I push harder, my Nikes slamming against the pavement like they could crush the thou

“So it was just a cover?” In a slow manner, I mouthed the words. I knew the game had begun—and I was going to use this recent discovery to my advantage. I turned my back to him, pretending to focus on the espresso machine.“It was never a cover or a game,” he said, gripping the edge of the kitchen island. His bare back flexed beneath the thin, see-through straps of his singlet.“Then what was it?”“I don’t know.” He turned to face me, brows narrowing. “It wasn’t part of the plan when your father arranged this.” He stepped closer.Perfect. I had him—guilty and confused. Two emotions that could wreck a man if you played them right.“I’m pregnant,” I breathed. “I suspected it. Couldn’t keep anything down all week.” I closed what brief gap remained between us and leaned in.He froze. Just a flicker. But I could hear his chest pounding—loud, fast, unsure.He blinked. Once. Twice. A hundred times.He didn’t know what to say. His expression unreadable.“I guess your father will be thrilled n

LARRY.I couldn't help myself but feel bad about the way I treated her, she was just a victim of pure circumstance.Just the way I was a victim of bullying in high school, I might have gotten my justice, but she will never get the justice she deserves.First, because she was sold to the highest bidder by her father, secondly people like my dad loved to see peasants beg for Mercy, he loves showing his supremacy.I had it in the back of my mind to apologize for my recent outburst. The presence of that evil man I call Dad makes me do the unthinkable sometimes. It was a result of the devil in the room, my father.I know he wouldn't react or try to fight because of my bride present in the room, I hate hate hate that man, I can't even pretend to be in the same room with himI was startled out of my deep thoughts at the creaking of the door, there she was, as gently as a dove. I'm now more convinced that I have been a jerk.“How are you doing Mr Davidson”, she said with the most calming voi

Jennifer.Now I have started doubting my sanity on why I am following a grumpy old lady home, we have passed this single alley three times in a row. I cuss under my breath as I start to second-guess my conscious mind. I’m losing it, this is the height of it all.The old lady turned back and looked at me as if knowing what I had been thinking.” I know you think I'm crazy” the old lady shouted a little bit slowly “I'm the one who is crazy, for trying to follow a crazy old lady home” I said, gasping for air, as I felt a little unsettling at the bottom of my stomach.I became so overcome by the sudden nausea that I almost threw out my stomach content on the old woman's face.Just to the surprise of the drunk old lady “ I hope this is not what I'm thinking” the old lady said, trying to hide a mocking tune of laughter in her voice.“That is none of your business,” I said, wiping my mouth with the back of my hands trying to regain my composure.“You are even dumber than I thought you would b

JENNIFERI was laid back by the old lady's single statement “What could she know?” I thought she was probably just trying to milk me off because of my present physical state, with my rough denemor Anyone with half a brain wound sense that I'm passing through a lot.“Old lady, if you need a drink you simply ask for it, I might be moved by your plea to buy you a bottle or two, trying to cajole me with lies about what you know or not won't work at this point,” I said with an air of finality while I try to get off from the stool I sat on.I paid for my shot, taking a closer look at the lady. She looked like she frequented the bar very often, and probably knew one or two about the occupants of the estates.“What do you know old lady, I might pay for your drinks you know?” I turned back at the lady whose chapped lips had tasted years of penury.She adjusted her sit and beckoned at me to come sit down on the stool beside her the one I just got up from. I reluctantly sat down again “Well, wha
