All Chapters of The Deal with the Billionaire Devil: Chapter 191 - Chapter 200

MADThat wasn’t random. It was well-played. Valentine picked me among the celebrities and artists in the hall. Knowing how his sister embarrassed him in the hotel room, this was his payback. He did it on purpose, to humiliate Tara and me in front of these people. If I were to guess, maybe he paid the artist to pretend to be sick, or maybe he asked someone to drug the guy. But what he wasn’t aware of was that I had a band in high school, and I played the guitar and the keyboard while playing football. The band broke up when we went to college separately. I completely stopped playing when my sister died. It reminded me of what I lost. When Tara joked that I might be randomly picked up to play the piano, I played a piano app on my phone. The shock in Tara’s eyes as her brother called my name, it was deep. She was scared of another embarrassment. If it were about me alone, I didn’t care, but seeing her in that position, I couldn’t stand it. I wanted to avenge her discomfort and make he

MAD“I trust you, Mad,” Dad said, which was a relief coming from him, and that I finally regained his trust.“Thanks, Dad. I may have to bring my assistant here. I’m waiting for the results of the business visa, tax registration, and then I will open a company bank account, and then hopefully, we will get our license.”“Okay, son. Your mom is also talking to the real estate representative. She found a house for sale.”I couldn’t help but smile. “So, she’s doing it, huh?”“Yeah. In fact, she’s excited. And tell Tara congratulations.”“I will, Dad. Bye.” I hung up the call. I was just sipping my coffee when the shop suddenly went silent. I turned to look at the door. The cashier just flipped the signage to close.“Someone might be here for you,” Nites said, looking over my shoulder.“Who?” My skin tigled with excitement. “Tara?”“Nah. The villain, and he’s coming to you.” He rose to his feet. The word villain made my eyes roll. Taking a deep breath, I stood up and turned to offer my h

MAD“It’s not like that.” He swallowed hard, blinking. “Oh, please.” I rolled my eyes. “He’s your first love, and you felt safe around him and seen for the first time. He accepted who you are, you found the love that you’ve been yearning to feel since the arrival of your baby sister, who’s adorable, beautiful, and loved by your people. You lost that attention from everybody while she became more popular than you. How am I doing so far?” His jaw clenched, but he did not reply. “It wasn’t a sibling rivalry, Valentine. It was envy. Tara is being herself. You should do that sometime. She’s loved because she’s authentic. She was even sadder when you changed. Did you bother asking her that? Don’t you know she blamed herself for losing the only brother she has? You should have seen her pain when I got her back.” I diverted my gaze when tears prickled in my eyes. “She had nightmares. I couldn’t even make love with her without seeing the pain and haunted look in her eyes because she thought

TARAI laughed at Mad.“You’d be perfect, Mr. Shanewood. Tara, consider it only if your heart feels it. This time, I’m gonna leave the decision to you. You already made me rich.” She laughed.I smiled. “I appreciate you saying that, Lori.”“I can’t wait to see you in Serevia. Bye, Princess.”I shook my head in amusement as I hung up the call. Olive was on her phone with a pale face that had me worry for a second. “Olive, what’s wrong?”Olive got Mad’s attention, too, taking the phone from her. “What the fuck?”“What is it?” I went to them and looked at what was on the screen.“Baby—” Mad locked the phone. “It’s nothing.”I glared at him. “These looks on your faces are nothing? I doubt that. Let me see it.”The phone in my office, his phone, and Olive simultaneously rang all together. My heart began to beat so hard that I began hyperventilating.“Baby.” Mad held me in his arms, and I could hear the panic in his voice. “Baby, look at me. I’ll tell you when you calm down. Breathe, please

MAD“Just stop throwing and breaking things.” Slowly, I loosened my arms around her, and she jerked to get off me and harshly sat back on the couch. “Why did he do that? I really don’t understand what’s in my brother’s head. Honestly.”“You were right. The photo was taken by the kidnapper, maybe sent to Valentine as proof that they had you. He said he wanted to come clean.”She rolled her eyes. “I don’t believe a shit he said.” When I arrived at the manor yesterday, I told her everything Valentine and I talked about. “You should stay away from him. I have a feeling that this is a part of his twisted game. He will destroy you. Trust me. There’s nothing good left in his body. His soul is consumed with envy and greed.”Nites and Lynx walked in. Tara was quick to tell them who released the photo.“I want to help him, but the more I do something, he just ruins it in a heartbeat.”“Stop helping him. He doesn’t deserve it, sir. He has people at his disposal, so why is he coming to you for h
