The Billionaire’s Son Chose Me!

Lora’s hands fisted by her side into tight fist balls, Bryan’s bad mood was all because of Chloe who just showed up..

She felt a touch on her shoulder knowing fully well who it was, she turned with an annoyed expression..

“Finally! I thought you were going to miss my big day”

Vanessa pulled the latter into a brief embrace, she was genuinely happy for Lora who got exactly what she had always wanted.

“How could I miss it? there was a little traffic on my way here”

Lora waved it off, she noticed Vanessa’s gaze zeroed down on her neck, she unconsciously raised her hand to her neck to find it anything was wrong..

“is something wrong?”

“There’s a red stain on your dress, and it’s quite noticeable too”

Lora panicked, today was supposed to be special and everything must go smoothly, she placed her hand over the spot Vanessa had pointed out for her .

“Come on.. let’s go”

Meanwhile….

“I’m so sorry.. it really was an accident ma’am” The waitress apologized staring down at Chloe’s dress which she spilled red wine on..

Chloe gave a small smile to her “It’s alright” she murmured waving the waitress off..

Sam collected her glass of wine and placed it on a tray of a waiter passing by..

“That looks bad.. come on let’s go clean it off”

Chloe raised a hand to his chest preventing him from coming further..

“Hey, you aren’t going to follow me to the ladies room, I can do this by myself!”

Sam raised his hands in surrender, he watched her back leaving before taking out his phone that has been ringing nonstop..

Chloe got into one of the cubicles, she stared at herself in the mirror for a while before taking out a tissue from its box..Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

She dabbed it gently on her stained dress, not too long, she heard hurried footsteps going into the cubicle right next to her..

“I just hate her!”

Wait! she recognized that voice, that was Lora, she stood still trying not to make a noise that could alert them..

If Lora was to find out that she was in here, who knows the scene that she would create, not that she was scared of the latter, but, this was a grand event being covered by the media..

She didn’t want to be on one of those nasty headlines..

“Just ignore her, today is your day, focus more on Bryan and make sure you’re always around him, you’ve done a lot to get this far with him, don’t let that effort go down the drain” Vanessa murmured at the other end..

Chloe sneered, Lora was feeling insecure, her lips curved into a grin..

The grin that appeared on her face slowly turned into a frown the moment she heard Lora’s next words..

“There’s a big problem Vanessa.. the doctor sent a text just now, he said if i don’t give him the agreed amount he’ll come here to tell Bryan the truth”

Chloe’s brows collided, she pulled out her phone from her purse carefully and quietly..

“What doctor?” Vanessa asked feeling a bit confused..

Lora turned to her with her head tilted to the side, was she this forgetful?

“The doctor who I paid to lie about my damaged womb.. he’s been calling nonstop, I told him to wait for a while longer, but he just sent me a text saying he’ll be here if I don’t pay up”

Vanessa groaned out suddenly recalling who she was referring to, if that doctor shows up, then he’ll try to ruin this engagement..

They barely have ten minutes before the commencement of the official engagement..

“I thought you got rid of him! it’s okay.. as far as he doesn’t have solid proof against us.. then it’s no big deal, no one will believe him”

“He has the copy of the DNA report of my dead baby! He really has solid proof to back up his claims!…” She suddenly screamed out showing off her phone to Vanessa who had a look of horror on her face..

“I’m doomed! He’ll figure out that this whole thing was a lie.. and-

Vanessa held Lora’s shoulder to calm her down, she stared down at the shadow lingering by the corner of the cubicle next to their’s..

She placed a finger on her lips “Shh..”

At the other end, Chloe placed her phone into her purse, she noticed their voice suddenly died down and without wasting any much time, she opened the cubicle and tiptoed out, trying not to make a noise with her heels…

Meanwhile…

Chad held Bryan’s hands back from grabbing another glass of whiskey..

“That’s enough Bryan! if you really don’t want this.. you can stop it from happening! you can’t keep doing this to yourself!”

Bryan shrugged Chad’s hand from his and raised the glass to his lips..

“My mum didn’t show up.. neither did Kyle or anyone of the Anderson’s, this engagement party is all fucked up!”

Chad sighed, he was already fed up of listening to Bryan’s laments..

His gaze trailed off to a distance when he spotted a familiar face moving around the hall with a wide grin on her face..

“Umm.. excuse me.. I’ll be back.. don’t just get drunk”

Bryan sat up from his seat, he took a glance at his wrist watch, this event should have been over by now, even though it was barely half an hour into the event..

He hated whatever this was, and the hate grew even more when he caught sight of Sam flocking around Chloe..

Like a magnet, their gazes locked for a brief moment..

“You were gone for so long..” Sam pointed out staring down at the spot on her dress which was stained a while ago..

“I decided to get married in there.. of course the stains were a bit tough to get out”

She took a glance at the lady sitting next to him on their table..

“I see you made use of most of your time while I was away” She teased wriggling her brows..

Sam’s eyes trailed behind her to see the imposing figure glaring daggers at him..

Chloe who was oblivious to the fact that someone was just behind her laughed at Sam’s face which looked like he had just seen a ghost..

“I need to talk to you” Bryan said in a firm tone leading her away without giving her a room to object….

He led her out of the hall, in a blink of an eye, Chloe’s back touched the cold wall behind her, his hand slammed on the wall just a little above her head..

“What do you mean by this?!”

Bryan’s eyes clenched for a brief minute, his gaze lingered on her lips for some time before he sealed it with his..

He placed an arm around her slender waist pulling her closer to him while he continued his assault on her lips..

Her soft mounds rubbed against his chest teasingly earning a groan from him..

He pulled away and glared down at her exposed mounds..

“What the heck are you putting on?!”

Chloe went loss for words, she just stared at him lost in her own thoughts..

Charlotte gritted her teeth in anger, she pressed her phone to her ear while she paced around her room..

“Things would have gone well last night if it wasn’t for Arya! she’s the one to be blamed for this!! and lastly, she knows that I’m her older sister!”

Dennis gaze lingered on the dart on the wall, he should have known better than leaving things into this foolish woman’s hands to handle..

He massaged his temple feeling too frustrated to say a word..

“Hello… Dennis are you there?!”

He heard her yell into the phone which only made him more annoyed..

“Quit yelling alright?! you were given a simple task and you couldn’t even do it! have you forgotten that your father is still in my custody?!”

A snort escaped from Charlotte’s lips, she wasn’t Arya who would be bugged by the news of their dad’s disappearance..

“And do you think you’re in the right frame of position to blackmail me? to hell with him! he’s dead to me! he died to me the day he abandoned me!”

The door suddenly opened jolting her, her eyes met with Arya’s curious gaze..

“Dad abandoned you?”

Charlotte turned her back against Arya, she murmured a few more words to Dennis before turning around once more..

“What are you doing here? haven’t you done enough already!”
