Semua Bab THE BILLIONAIRE'S TWISTED GAMES : Bab 1 - Bab 10

Leah’s heart sank as she stood frozen.Her eyes widened in disbelief and she wished she was hallucinating and the man in front of her was someone else but no, it was definitely him. Her gaze shifted to the golden nameplate on his desk that read “Mr. Alexander Carter.” confirming her worst nightmare.His eyes lit up with amusement upon seeing her. “Wow, If it isn't my favorite waitress.”Leah swallowed hard, forcing herself to remain composed. “Mr Carter, I wasn't aware that this was your company.”He folded his arms, looking all smug. “Hmm, seems like someone didn't do their research.”She would've clapped back immediately on a regular day, but today she was standing in front of a man who could either make or break her so she just clenched her fist and offered a half-hearted smile. “ I did my research on the company, not the man behind it.”“Okay Leah.” He drawled, leaning back in his chair. “So asides being dramatic, tell me about your other traits.”Anger crept up Leah's neck but

Leah was appalled by Victoria's sudden change of character. Her demeanor switched and felt somewhat sinister. What happened to the angel that was sweet talking to her moments ago? Leah took a step back from Victoria, her muscles tensing up with unease.“Woah did I do something?” “No. This is just a warning. I wouldn't want any misunderstandings between us.” The door swung open and Alex walked in, his hands in his pocket as he scanned the environment. He probably picked up on the tension in the room because the first thing he asked was. “Any problem?” Victoria flashed a gleeful smile. “No, not at all.” She gently placed her hands on Leah's shoulders. “I was just ironing out a few details to Leah here.” Leah's eyes widened, Details? More like a veiled threat. She was starting to think that Victoria might actually be a bigger problem than Alex. At least he didn't pretend to be anything other than a jerk but Victoria? She was a hypocritical, two-faced bitch. “Good.” Alex walked ov

“Alex?” Victoria voice echoed through the door. Alex jerked away from Leah like he's been burned. “Yes Hun,come in.” Leah stomach twisted in panic and she straightened herself, wiping off any emotion from her face as her thoughts raced. Had Victoria heard anything? Victoria barged in with her usual arrogance, holding out a phone. “Alex, it's your father, he wants to speak with you.” His mood shifted immediately, whatever little warmth was left in his eyes completely dissapeared. “Give it here.” He snatched the phone from her hastingly. “Hello……Yes, sir ….. I understand……No but-.... Alright, I'll get back to you.” He dropped the call and let out a sigh of exasperation. “What did he say?” Asked Victoria. “He wants it done as soon as possible.” Victoria gave a curt nod. “Then we need to move fast.” Leah had no clue as to what they were talking about but she knew whatever it was had to be important and needed to be treated with urgency. “Does this somehow involve me?” Alex

Leah stood paralyzed. Her world spun around her like a carousel. Her lips parted as if she was to speak but she was unable to. There was no way this was happening, she can't be pregnant like this not with his child.Alex stared at the ground as if they had the answers he was searching for. “ I don't understand, perhaps there's a mix-up in the result and..”Leah cut him off, “He's right.” “Huh.”“There's no mix-up.”Alex’s face depicted both shock and irritation. “So what are you telling me?”“I'm telling you, this is our child, Alex.” He scoffed. “You better be joking.”“I'm not. Hear me out, call Dr. John and ask how long the pregn…”“Cut it out!” Alex yelled startling Leah. “Not another word from you whore!”Leah felt like a knife had been plunged through her chest. “Wha… what did you just call me?”“How do you expect me to believe a word out of your mouth? Hell! The only thing I know about you is your name and age, that's if you didn't lie about that too.”“You really think I wou

The air was growing thicker by the second. The weight of Eve's words had crushed Leah, disabling her from speaking and Victoria looked like she was barely holding it together. Richard, Alex's father , cleared his throat loudly, the sound slicing through the silence. “I suppose we just say anything at this table now.” His voice was cold and commanding. The ambience in the room changed instantly. Eve didn't flinch but from her facial expression, it was obvious that her husband's words had put her in check but that didn't stop her from shooting one last jab at Leah. “ I just thought it'd be a kind thing to give Leah a little forewarning.” “Your manner of approach was not so kind.” Richard snapped. “Now that I'm done with hearing you ladies engage in a verbal cat fight, let's get down to business.” The tone in which he said that heightened the tension in the room. Leah glanced around the table, noting the expression on everyone present - They knew what was coming but she didn't a
