Semua Bab The heiress and the billionaire vow : Bab 1 - Bab 8

I've never felt so excited and relieved the way I was that day. It was as if a large weight had been lifted off my shoulders. There are some situations we find ourselves and we start wondering how we got in and all we want to do is walk out. I've been dating Jake Reagan for a month now and I didn't know how to end things with him. I do love him but my family always placed our business first before any other thing.Jake was the son of Elon Reagan, CEO of a billionaire conglomerate. Jake was a rich spoiled brat who engaged in all forms of social abnormalities. He always slept around with women and always at one club or another; sometimes I wonder how I fell for such a man. I guess love is truly blind for I was blinded by love. At first I didn't read any meaning into his actions but I felt detached from the relationship so I had to take a slow step back.Luckily for me, my dad got involved and I was able to end things with him. Well, everything we had came to an end and I could suddenly

“Am I interrupting?” Ethan’s voice sliced through the room like a guillotine. He leaned against the doorframe, all sharp edges and tailored arrogance—his brother’s smirk, his brother’s eyes, even the same damn cologne. “Jake”. The name clawed up my throat, bitter as old coffee. My nails dug into my palms under the table. Relief? Anger? I couldn’t decide. Ethan was a grenade with the pin pulled, but at least he’d shut down Dr. Kent’s slimy “negotiations.” “M-Mr. Reagan!” Dr. Kent shot up, knocking his chair backward with a clatter. His forehead glistened under the harsh lights, and his laugh came out strangled. “What an honor!” He’d been less jittery earlier, when his hand “accidentally” brushed my thigh under the table. The Reagan Group owned nearly half his company. One frown from Ethan, and the man’s life’s work would dissolve faster than sugar in rain. Ethan didn’t blink. He prowled forward, his polished shoes ticking like a countdown. “Dr. Kent,” he said, icy calm. “You’ve g

“Make sure all documents for today's meeting are intact. I'll be there in a minute,” Nathan said, hanging up. He dropped his phone on the passenger seat next to him as he focused on his driving, holding the steering wheel firmly with his two hands.Nathan was heading to “Global Health City” headquarters. He had a meeting with some investors from Europe and Asia. Nathan pressured the accelerator so he wouldn't be late. In the middle of the drive, Nathan started to feel so hot. At first he ignored it whining down his windows to allow air in.As the drive continued he started sweating profusely wiping sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand. He released his ties with one of his hands while trying to focus on his driving. Things got to its climax when Nathan noticed he had started to feel dizzy—he was losing consciousness.Nathan wanted to park the car to avoid minor accidents. As he was about to park driving to the left,a huge lorry was coming,which he was unaware of. The lorry

The next day, Dr vanguard was faced with a group of reporters. At the front of the Vanguard Conglomerate Headquarters,a group of reporters, photographers and cameramen camped outside. Dr. Vanguard was seen earlier walking into the building and because of that the press had decided to wait outside hoping to get the chance to ask Dr. Vanguard some questions relating to his son's death.The news of Nathan Vanguard's death was a shock to the media and the corporate world. Nathan was a promising heir and the envy of other conglomerates in the city.His death had left a lot of questions hanging in the minds of people both wealthy and poor. There had been many conspiracy theories formulated concerning his death.Few minutes past,the large glass doors slid open as the frenzy of the reporters exploded.“Dr. Vanguard!” one reporter shouted, pushing her microphone forward trying to get answers from Dr. Vanguard which was her main aim. “Can you tell us if Nathan’s death was truly an accident?”“
