The Billionaire Secret Admirer

I felt honoured that JoJos’s man knows about me.

as we both walked out together, I asked her extend my greetings to her man and she said she will.

As I got home that evening I called Richard since it was only in the morning we spoke.

I called him to know how his day went but he did not pick my calls.

Sometimes he doesn’t pick calls when he is busy.

Even through out the night I couldn’t reach him until the following day.

He gave me some reasons why he couldn’t pick the calls

Our relationship continued and I kept on hoping for Richard to propose.

Ohio still comes around but he kept his distance and respond to my greetings nicely anything we ran into each other.

And I like the fact that he did not ask me to go out with him again as some guys will do.

One day, Richard called me that he will like to see me, he has something to tell me.

He picked my favorite restaurant for the venue.

I couldn’t wait because I already know what he plans to tell me which was to marry him.

I have patiently waited and is finally coming to past.

I got dressed that morning, I did not tell my parents that Richard was going to propose, I wanted to surprise them this time.

I left excitedly to meet him at the venue.

I came in and saw him waving over a table.

I doubled up my steps and almost kicked down a chair that was on my way. I was too much in a hurry to get to him and receive the great news.

I was almost out of breath when I got to the table.

He was not looking so bright, he curve his mouth into a smile as I sat opposite him, so excited.

There was a bottle of wine and two cups.

He was gradually sipping his own and later poured some for me in the second glass cup.

He asked me if I care for anything to eat, I could have said yes on a normal day because is my favorite eatry and their food tastes so good.

But i was filled up with excitement and told him that I’m okay with the wine.

I Just wanted him to quickly get it all done.

I placed my two hands on the table so that he can see that I’m fully ready.

He cleared his throat, look straight at my beaming face filled with smile and said.

“Becca, I love you and you know that… we have being together for three years now. Three months ago completed it three years that we are in a relationship which had being awesome. You are good and and very understanding. You are beautiful and has being patient with me…

I nodded my head still with smile as I expect the main news.

Richard continued.

“Becca… will you…

Before he could complete the statement.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

I started chorusing my yes… yes… yes! I will marry you Rich… yes I will!

The air was cool, beautiful and romantic music was playing that evening.

The music is probably coming from my own mind but I did not care I was enjoying the great moment of my life.

He paused and looked at me confused.

I assumed my “yes” was not loud enough for him to hear, so I screamed it out, forgetting that other people were at the place, eating and relaxing.

I noticed that some people turned and looked at me, but they will not understand the Joy in my heart that my loving boyfriend just finally proposed to me.

Richard cautioned me with a frown on his face

“Lower your voice Becca, stop being so dramatic. Why are you acting like a little child? I was not proposing to you. Why are you so desperate… what is wrong with you?

My beautiful smile suddenly changed into a frown.

“What else are we doing here Rich if is not what I’m thinking? why did you call me out that you have something to tell me… what other thing can that be since is not a proposal? What exactly did you want to say by asking me “if I will….?

I asked him getting confused and uncomfortable with his attitude.

He replied with a hush voice that is rather harsh.

“Maybe if you have calm down and listen to the end of what I had to say you won’t be too fast to conclude. Look at the way you almost created a scene… did you see the way people were turning and looking at us earlier? I was about asking you if you will be kind enough to explain to me what you are doing with your boss friend? You are cheating on me right?

I scoffed out at first in shock. my boss friend.. Mr Ohio? How did Richard got to know that. Who hold him? JoJo was the only person I spoke with. How did Richard got to hear about it?

“My boss friend? How… who told you such lies that I’m cheating on you. I have never cheated on you Rich… never!…

He scold me with another harsh voice.

I began to wonder what has come over him all of a sudden.

“Keep quiet and answer the damn question Becca. You are going out with your boss friend and also sleeping with him. You thought I won’t know right? I have my informant even right there in your office, they update me on your every move. How could you Becca? I loved you and I thought you also loved me. I don’t know your desperate attitude for a ring has pushed you into another man’s arm. I just want to tell you that I’m done… I’m done with this whole relationship thing. There was no way I was even going to marry you Becca, you are too old for me. I need a younger lady, smart, more beautiful… less desperate… and independent lady who does not need her parents to dictate for her. Maybe one who lives alone has a higher class. I don’t need someone that is 28 going to 29years. Never… even my parents will not support such union. I wanted to still put up with you and see if things can still work out but since you have started sleeping with your boss and all his friends, I have no choice than to call it quit. You are here by free to sleep with all your boss friends, your boss himself and even your colleagues… is none of my business any more. I’m moving on with my life and I’m sorry it has to end this way. We both enjoyed ourselves, we both had a great time together for three years but I can’t continue anymore. Is time to get serious with the right one…
