Semua Bab In love with a heartless billionaire: Bab 171 - Bab 180

~Mirabelle~I had confessed everything to Mason today. I had held it all in for a long time now that I couldn't hold it back anymore. I was going insane. I needed to tell someone. I needed an assurance. And I was so grateful I got that from Mason. He didn't judge me for any of my actions and he even told me to give Mariano a second chance. He didn't judge me for having misplaced feelings for Kidd neither did he judge Mariano for everything that has happened. I was so glad to have him as my best friend even though I know I might be endangering his life as well, he took that risk by listening to me. And I was grateful. I was glad. It felt as if something has been lifted off my chest.Taking off my shoes, I walked in the living room. The whole room was quiet when I walked in and I was sure Annie must have gone home since it was so late already.Sliding off my skirt, blouse and bra, I was left only in my underwear as I plopped down on a couch to relax, my eyes closing. I had only closed m

~Mariano~She had fallen asleep before we arrived. Scrambling through her purse, I pulled out her key and carried her out of the car. On getting to her unit, I inserted the key and carried her inside. After I had placed her on the bed, I untied her hair and stared at her legs that had bruises under. Same goes for her knees.I got up and moved to the kitchen where I switched on the cooker and placed a kettle of water on it. After that, I scurried to the bathroom to prepare a hot bath for her. As soon as I was done, I moved back to the bedroom, where I saw her sitting up and rubbing her fingers over her forehead."You have an headache?"She nodded.I sighed."It's a good thing I brought some aspirins. Go take a bath. I'll prepare some food for you so you'd take it along with the drugs. Eaten?"She shook her head.I sighed again. I didn't want to get mad at her now for totally ignoring her health and wellbeing. "Just go. I'll fix something for you to eat.""Can't stand on my own."In a

*~Mirabelle~*"Oh, Aunt Belle, I don't think I can do this."Madison told me as I handed her a tray of food. "He's going to be so mad! Remember how I treated him when I first got here?""Oh come on. Mariano doesn't know how to stay mad at someone for long.""What am I going to say? That I prepared this?""No, we prepared this. Don't worry, he's not going to scold you, I promise. I'll just help you knock and when he says, 'come in', you'll go in and drop the food on his table. Don't forget to do the bow before you exit, is that clear?""Oh okay. Let's do this. The worst he can do is scold me and he's not going to do that right?"Few minutes later,"Out! And don't you ever come back here!"Madison hurried out in tears with the tray of food. I quickly took it from her."See, I told you he's still mad at me."I frowned. He shouldn't have shouted at her like that. "It's okay. Let's just leave him alone for now. Come on, let's go." We were already heading down the stairs when we heard him ca

~Mirabelle~I didn't utter a word to anyone. I just barged in and went straight to my room. I wasn't in the mood today a word to anyone but I guess that wasn't going to stop Gen from saying anything.I went straight to the bathroom, lifted my shirt up and turned my aide to mirror. Ha. There it was. My little bump. I ran my hand over it as chills ran down my spine still unable to register the fact that I was actually carrying a life human inside me. A baby girl. My very own little princess. I thought I would be my dad's princess forever but here I was, standing with another princess inside of me. I still couldn't believe it was real."Beautiful, isn't it?"I gasped, quickly dropping my shirt. "Uh..mom. How long have you been standing there?""Almost ten minutes?""Oh. So you do know now." I said and leaned over the sink. "Mom, I'm so confused. I don't know what to do. I'm just...I don't think I deserve this, to be honest, mom. I feel like this is too much for me. I don't deserve this

~Mirabelle~"Good morning Mr. Campbell," I said, shaking hands with our lawyer after I took my seat."Mrs. Lorenzo, it's good to see you.""You too.""So uh...who are we waiting for?" I asked him, looking around the room."Your husband, Mrs. Lorenzo. The divorce papers are ready."My heart gave a loud thump. It was time. Time for us both to finally go our separate ways. So this was how it was going to end for us. He might never even get the chance to find out about his baby. This was absurd. I didn't want to do it but at the same time, I couldn't help being impatient. I wanted to get this done and over with but at the same time, I didn't want to do it. I had loved Mariano from the onset and going away from him now, I might not feel the hurt now, but I was definitely going to feel the pain later.I had been seated for almost twenty minutes but there was still no sign of Mariano. Even Mr. Campbell had tried calling him a dozen times but he wasn't picking up. Mr Campbell got up and walke
