Semua Bab THE BILLIONAIRE'S TWISTED GAMES : Bab 11 - Bab 20

Victoria’s lips parted slightly like she was about to say something but then she hesitated, her eyes darting all around the room. “Uh… uh, I must have overheard it somewhere then. Probably from Alex, sometimes he just rambles on and…”“Alex doesn't know either.”Silence.Victoria looked back at her startled. Then her hands trembled as she clutched her purse. “Well, I just guessed then. You see, I have this one cousin with the same condition and that's exactly how she reacts when she eats hazelnuts.”“Ah I see.” Leah said even though she didn't believe a word that came out of Victoria's mouth.Victoria got up abruptly. “Let me leave you to rest now. We'll talk later when you're feeling better.”She didn't wait for a response; she hurriedly retreated to the door and left the room.Leah watched her leave, her pulse rising despite her condition. She didn't want to think about it. The same woman who opened up to her like that couldn't go back and try to kill her. The thought of it was ridi

Leah sat on the cold tiled floor with tears still streaming down her face.She had felt helpless before but this felt different - Worse.It wasn't just despair coursing through her veins, there was rage and a burning urge for vengeance. Blood-thirsty vengeance. At first it was just Victoria but now Alex had been added to the list. “Baby maker” that's what he called her and now he was about to find out that other than babies, she was capable of making his life a living hell. She was coming in hot, fierce and powerful. She was ready to obliterate anything hindering from getting what she wanted.She wiped off her tears, and dusted herself up from the ground. No more tears, no more weakness. If she wanted to beat them, she had to join them. Play the docile girl so well that they wouldn't even realize they were being outsmarted.________________.The next morning she walked around the house like nothing had happened. Her appearance was tidy and pristine and her aura radiated a soft and an

As Leah opened her mouth to respond they heard a creaking sound coming from above.They froze.Rachel shot out her and gripped Leah's wrist. “We have to go.”They tiptoed down the narrow passage until they arrived at a small storage room filled with old furniture, rotting books and cobwebs.They listened to check if they'll hear more creaking but the only sound they picked up was that of their own heart thumping.“You sure they didn't hear us?” Leah whispered with terror evident in her tone.“They did not.” Rachel assured. “We're safe for now.”Leah slumped against the wall heaving a sigh of exhaustion. “Ughh, I didn't sign up for this. I thought it'd just be simple, give them a baby and call it quits but now I'm hiding out, in case my boss or his psychotic wife who wants to kill finds me.”“I know.” Rachel said, crouching beside her. “It's difficult but this is what we have to lay low for now.” Then she turned to face Leah, with a smile that signified victory. “By the way, I have ac

Damian ascended the scene leaving behind an air of static tension.Leah’s heart dropped as she stared at Rachel's message for the second time. She needed to know how big of a threat this man was and this meant she had to do some background research so she typed back quickly with trembling fingers.“Let's meet at the west wing center, there's a study there that no one barely goes to. I need to know how big of a threat this man is.”. She hit send and tucked the phone back in her pocket.Moments passed and she went to the study. Rachel was already there waiting pretending to do some cleaning. Leah picked up an antique leather book and sat by the desk Rachel was “fake-cleaning.”“So who is he?” She whispered, her eyes still fixated on the book she wasn't reading. Rachel didn't look at her, she just continued wiping the desk with a rag that did more smearing than cleaning.“Damian Carter. Alex's older brother and the rightful heir to the Carter's enterprises.”“Wait, Alex isn't the oldest?

They left the hall walking hand in hand. For a moment,neither of them said a word to each other. The tension still lingered in their chest. But oddly enough, Leah didn’t wanna be anywhere else.He leaned against the railing with his arms crossed. “You good?”Leah nodded slowly. “Yeah, I guess.”“I think you handled yourself pretty well back there.”She forced a half-smile, trying to be polite.“Yeah, I know but why did you help me?”“To be honest, I never really liked Victoria.” Damian paused, his jaw tightened and his eyes suddenly turned somber. “And I detest bullies a lot because I know how it feels to be on the receiving end of deceit.”Leah blinked, caught off guard. “What! You were bullied?”He nodded, almost reluctantly.“Yeah, a lot. When I was younger.” “No way. You look like someone who used to bully the bullies.”Damian let out a low chuckle. “So you’d think but I wasn’t always like this.”“Really? What changed?” Her eyes softened and so did her tone.“Life changed me.”“In
