บททั้งหมดของ THE BILLIONAIRE IS MINE: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

"Bye," Jacqueline waved to Vanessa as she alighted from the school bus. Vanessa walked into her home. She was greeted by Hunter, Leonard's spaniel as usual. She walked into her room stopping briefly to look at the picture frame that hung on the wall. It was a picture they took as a family at her twelfth birthday party. She sighed as she walked into her room. She showered, changed into a jumper and walked into the kitchen. She quickly made some toast, grabbed a can of Pepsi and sat down to eat. She had planned to call Greg to ask him if he could drive her over to Paige's house.Her phone rang and she paused thinking it was Greg calling to ask if she was home already. It was her dad."Hi Dad," Vanessa said biting into her toast."Hey, sweetie. Umm...are you home?""Umm," she replied with her mouth full."Err...Listen you shouldn't wait up for me alright? I have some work to do so..."Vanessa quickly swallowed."I understand Dad," she said and then remembered the party. "Hey, Dad,""Yea

Leonard's death left his family devastated. Mia, Vanessa's mother was the most affected by Leonard's death. She had given up her job as a teacher to tend to him. She had read him newspapers, and books when his eyesight failed. She, Vanessa and Greg had taken turns holding his hands when he hallucinated. And when he died, Mia broke down mentally and physically. She couldn't eat or sleep. As a result, she became distant and frail. She was admitted to the hospital and in a few days she returned home. Soon the spells began all over again, she ate a little, talked to herself and would occasionally call Leonard in her sleep. She was taken back to the hospital where she spent many weeks. Leonard’s funeral was brief. It was attended by some of Vanessa’s relatives, family friends and all who knew Leonard. Mia was at the hospital and couldn’t attend the funeral. Greg had flown in from Las Vegas to attend the funeral. He was heartbroken. He looked at Vanessa as she wept profusely as she watched

Vanessa got home. She sat thinking about her predicament. Just last Tuesday her father had informed her he was going to sell his restaurant which was doing poorly so she could go to college. And now that she was pregnant there was no way she could go to college, at least for the time being. She couldn't bring herself to tell her parents about her pregnancy. They would be so disappointed in her. There was only one thing she could do.The next day found Vanessa en route to Las Vegas. She had made up her mind on her next plan late last night. She'd left a written note addressed to her dad and another to Jacqueline. She couldn't bear seeing the shock and disappointment on her dad's tired face if he found out she was pregnant. She hoped Jacqueline would do as she had written and keep her mouth shut. She closed her eyes as she sat on the plane that would take her to Las Vegas.Peter came home late that Friday night. He hadn't expected Vanessa to wait up for him. She had been working all day

The next morning Annabelle awoke in an extremely good mood. Her body felt sore and stiff from last night's sex. It had been a long time since she had good sex. She glanced at Greg who still slept on. Man, he could really dig her well, better than her ex the tattooed dude. The early sunrise had just begun to peep in through the curtains. Greg shifted in his sleep and the duvet slid a little down his skin. She walked into the bathroom, washed her face and came back to bed prepared to wake him up. She noticed a bulge in the sheets and gently peeled the sheet off him without touching his body. Greg had an erection while sleeping. Annabelle chuckled. Was he thinking about her or one of his numerous lovers? She felt jealous. She didn't even know his name. She had just gotten off with him because she was lonely and he showed up looking like Lucifer. She would like to get to know him, perhaps have another good time like this. She stared at him silently. She hadn't gotten a good look at him la

The room was in a mess. Walking stiffly into the room she discovered the room had been broken into and all her things were stolen. There was no sign of forced entry meaning someone had easy access to the room. Trembling Vanessa ran down to the reception after locking the door. She reported the incident to the receptionist and asked to see the hotel manager. Mr Orton the hotel manager was initially sympathetic and helpful but eventually became defensive.The hotel offered no apology or refund and was extremely unhelpful with the police. When the police wanted to check the security cameras none of the staff knew how to work the recorder. They finally got a specialist in and they found out that the camera hadn't even been recording. Vanessa felt so violated knowing that someone had just walked into her room, rifled through her things and walked right on out. The hotel room door not being damaged, with no broken locks, and useless security cameras just screams suspicious to her. If it was
