Nothing seem suspicious

AIDEN

I sat in the dimly lit kitchen, staring at the meal I'd made for me and Sophia and my heart wouldn't stop beating so fast.

I was worried. Hell, I was panicking.

Sophia hadn't been picking up her calls and the last time I tried to call her again, it kept saying her phone was switched off.

Damien came to mind and since I was scared that he'd done something to her, I tried to reach out to him too but he didn't pick my calls.

I kept getting ignored and that made me even more suspicious.

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    You don't have to

    SOPHIA Aiden placed the already made meal before me in our kitchen. We shared a look as he picked the cutlery and handed it over to me.“Come on, love. You told me you would eat if I did what you wanted” He coaxed and I took the cutlery from his hold.“Yeah. I clearly remember the promise I made” I said while staring at the sumptuous food he'd just prepared for only me and yet, I felt no urge to even taste it. I was moved by the loving gesture he'd made for me but that couldn't change the emptiness I felt. All the chaos that had been surrounding me from the moment we crossed paths again had finally caught up with me and now, all I could feel was emotional exhaustion. I was sick. I was fed up with all of it, but most of all, I was livid. I was angry that I'd let this go on for too long and gave the enemy too many chances to mess me up before realizing I'd had enough but by then, it had become too late.Two lives had been lost. Two people who were special and meant a lot to me and

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    what now?

    SOPHIATWO WEEKS LATER…The sun was shining way too brightly for such a sad day. That morning when I got out of bed with my head pounding like it was about to explode, I found myself wishing dad died in spring. Then it would have rained on his funeral. He loved the rain so I was sure he would have loved it… whnever he was.Except he wasn't meant to die. He was only shot because his mentally unstable second daughter sent hit men to kill his first daughter and he ended up getting hit instead.None of this was meant to be happening. So how could it be spring and how could it be raining? Nobody saw it coming.My father was supposed to be alive. He was meant to be back home with mum, having breakfast with her in their large dining room together like they always did.Now he was getting buried six feet below the ground. All because of HER! I adjusted my shades at the thought of Elena and I released a long breath as I felt that same simmering anger rush through my veins.I hadn't shed a te

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    What day is it?

    SOPHIABright lights flooded my eyes once I forced them open and I quickly closed them while wincing from the painful burn. Slowly, I pried them open again and the light didn't hurt as much anymore.Then I turned to the right and seated beside me was Aiden who was deep asleep. I forced my hand up to tap him away and he snapped his head up once he felt my touch.“Sophia!” he exclaimed, his eyes wide with relief.“What happened, Aiden? Where am I?” I asked groggily and the light in his eyes suddenly went dim before he looked away.“You passed out and this is the hospital” He answered, still not looking at me. I forced myself to sit up and he quickly reached out to help. Then I looked out the window and I saw how bright it was out.“What day is it?” I asked while staring out the window.“It's noon. The event was last night” He answered once again and memories of what happened all came back to me.I snapped my head back to Aiden once I remembered what happened to my dad and realization s

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    Good evening Mr cross

    SOPHIAIt had been days since I met with Damien while Elena was listening in. Whatever happened between them? I had no idea. All I knew was, Elena wouldn't let Damien get away with what he'd done.It was finally time for the event I'd been planning and I was excited to share what I had in store with my guests. Aiden drove us to the venue and Janet was there already, working on the final touches as we both walked in. She looked excited to see us.“Hi, Miss Hale. Do you like what you see?” She asked while gesturing toward the decors in the hall and I nodded while taking a look around.“It's perfect, Janet. I love it and I'm sure our guests will love it too, Janet” I told her and she beamed even more.“Good evening, Mr Cross. I hope you have a great time tonight” she greeted Aiden too and he wrapped his arm around my waist.“As long as Sophia is here, I'm pretty sure I'll have a great time, Janet” He returned and she sent me a knowing smile before looking back at him.“I'll excuse mysel

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    Just answer the question

    ELENAI was meant to be making dinner but I couldn't bring myself to love. All I did in the dimly lit kitchen was stand in the middle of it, a knife held in my hand while I stared into space. My head was all over the place. My mind felt tortured with so many questions and assumptions and the orchestrator of all of it was nowhere to be seen. My body ached to move but I couldn't seem to lift my feet and leave the spot I stayed glued to. So I remained in the same spot, my mind still punishing me with questions. Then the beeping sound came from the door, letting me know Damien was back from work but still, I couldn't take a step to welcome him. Not after what I heard him tell Sophia at the restaurant earlier during the day. I couldn't believe he had such demeaning thoughts about me and worse of all, I couldn't believe I actually thought he cared for me when all he cared for was himself.I felt stupid and used. To know that he only married me with hopes of securing the Hale Dynasty hur

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    Let's take that table

    SOPHIAI texted the address to Aiden immediately the call ended. Then I grabbed my jacket and bag and left the office.Janet was in the middle of receiving a phone call as I walked by so I waved at her, letting her know I was clocking out for the day and she nodded in response before waving back at me too. With that, I left for my car and Elena's phone call came in just as I turned the engine on.“Patience, Elena. I'll be there soon and you'll have your truth. Alright?” I said as I pressed the phone to my ear and I could imagine her gritting her teeth in annoyance.“Whatever. Just don't waste my time” she snapped. That made me raise a brow.“Or what? Have you got anything pressing to do?” I deliberately asked her just to piss her off and the thought of her gritting her teeth crossed my mind again.“Fuck off, Sophia! As I said, don't waste my time!” She snapped once again and the phone call went dead.With a sigh, I pulled the seat belt over my chest and clicked it into it's place. Th
