Semua Bab FALLING FOR THE BILLIONAIRE’S REVENGE TRAP: Bab 1 - Bab 10

ONE LILY“Do not embarrass me today, Lily. I expect that you will be on your best behavior and represent the family well” My father says as he hurries inside my room.I am facing the vanity mirror but I can feel his eyes on my back as he is taking in my appearance. I am sure he is impressed by the dress I have chosen because he says nothing to counter it.“When have I never represented the family?” I ask, the sarcasm evident in my voice.“Do not speak to me that way, young lady” my father snaps back, his eyes glittering in the dim of my room.I sigh, already feeling the headache come on.The very same headache I have always had since I was a child. My father had money but not even his money and the numerous doctors could diagnose what was wrong and why I always went into fits and sometimes passed out.The conclusion was that I was weak child and I probably was going to die early in life; not like my father’s behavior towards me was helping matters.“You are the reason we are having t

THREENICKOLASI could almost laugh at the shock on her face and the way her mouth had fallen open at the sight of me. She always did have such expressive eyes and I could tell now what she was thinking as she continued staring at me.“Nick” She breathesI feel her words hit me smack in the face as I try to maintain the composure I had entered into the party with.I am not about to fall apart just because she had called my name. I remind myself that I am just here for a job and then revenge; I cannot afford to swoon at the sight of her.“Hey Lily” I respond, my voice hoarse.I grin to cover up the rawness I had not expected to feel at the sight of her.“How are you?” I ask her“How are you here, Nick? What are you doing here?” She mutters, her eyes darting all over me even as the event continued around us. The smile disappears from my face as I stand up straighter, towering over her and watching her like she is prey; because that is what I wanted her to be. “I can now afford to be

FIVENICKOLAS“Come with me” The man who had come up behind me mutters. After the scene with Lily where she had run out after shooting me a glance; I had been thinking about how hard it was going to be to break the news to her about what her parents had done. The truth about her and the crime they had all committed. I had been so sure I wanted to break her, to see her crumble but right now after staring into eyes that had not changed since the last I looked into them. Eyes that held all the sorrows in the world when she wasn’t acting like her mother, I was reconsidering my position in the truth I was about to reveal. “Why?” I query“What?” the man respondsHe appears very confused at my question. “Why do I need to come with you and where exactly are we going?” I repeatI see the man’s eyes darken dangerously before he leaves me, no doubt to go and report to Robert that I am proving difficult. I recline in my seat; my thoughts are soon justified as Robert heads in my direction wi

CHAPTER SEVENLILY“I got here as fast as I could after your call came in, what is going on inside?” I say to my mum as she runs to meet me at the steps to the entrance of the house.“I do not know but they are all inside. They said they want to search the house or something.” I can see the frustration on my mum’s face as she is speaking.We keep walking into the house and the closer I got, the louder the voices were that were in the house. My father’s voice being the loudest; I could recognize it anywhere.“You have no right to walk into my house and accuse me of this nonsense. Do you know who I am? I am Robert Blake. I can end you and your career before it even begins.” I can hear him bellowI turn into the sitting room to see two young men all dressed up in black suits.“Sir, we are just doing our jobs. An embezzlement case was raised against you and we are just here to investigate its authenticity.” the one on the right says with so much conviction. The expression on my father’s

CHAPTER NINELILYMy mother is furious as she shouts at the officer stationed at the desk immediately we walk in. The car ride here had not been a pleasant one at all. She had kept on screaming and cursing Nickolas for everything. I honestly want to believe he has nothing to do with all this but ever since he showed up things have gotten out of hand and it is not difficult to imagine that he might be behind it seeing as he is not exactly a fan of my family.First it is the two detectives this morning and some hours later police men had barged in, breaking down the door to whisk my father away. This time they had a warrant to back it up.“Who can I talk to?” I ask the male cop that mum continued to yell out, I had succeeded in turning her out since the car ride.“There is no one you can talk to right now, once there is I will direct the person over to you but for now you should take your seat over there.” he gestures towards a row of benches.“After all the donations we have made towar
