The Billionaire’s Son Chose Me!

Lora’s chest heaved up and down as she took fast breaths, Bryan’s words replayed over and over in her head..

Seeing as she was not ready to move, Bryan bolted to the entrance of the building to stop her before she does something bad to herself..

“Bryan! get back here!” Cynthia yelled out to her son who already ran into the building..

“Get yourself together! he’s only fixing the mess that he created! you’re at fault for his bad and irrational behaviors”

Charles barked furiously at his wife, she turned to him with a cold glare, was he really going to pin this all on her?

Bryan was old enough to make his own decisions, it’s quite unfortunate that something as bad as this happened to Lora but why should her son pay the price for it?

“If only you haven’t forced him into that relationship with Lora maybe all these wouldn’t have happened! if you’re to blame anyone then I think it’s you who is to be blamed!”

Bryan appeared behind Lora and carefully pulled her back down..

“Let me go!”

“Are you out of your mind?! what were you trying to do?!”

Lora shrugged off his hold on her crying her eyes out, she wrapped her arm around her flat stomach shaking her head slowly..

“This is easy for you to say because the girl you are into didn’t lost her child or her right to motherhood”

Bryan sighed running his hand through his hair, why was she constantly reminding him of this? ..

Taking in several breaths he held her by her shoulders gripping onto it firmly..

“Like I said earlier Lora.. I’ll get married to you, I’m the one to be held responsible for this..”

Arya’s heart skipped a beat when Kyle took the seat in front of her, she was currently feeding Ray his bowl of oatmeal..

“Easy Naomi.. you’ve stained my shorts”

Arya peeled her eyes off Kyle to Ray who was wiping the small stains off his school shorts.

“I’m so sorry.. look it went off” she pointed out with a small smile..

She cleared her throat to gain Kyle’s attention once more even though she had it because he never peeled his eyes off her not even for a second..

“Umm.. Mr Anderson-

“you’re still addressing me formally after what happened between us?”

Arya choked on her saliva, she placed both hands against Ray’s ears to prevent him from listening to their conversation..

She looked around to be sure Charlotte wasn’t lingering about and speaking of her, where was she? because she hadn’t seen her since this morning.. which made her wonder what exactly Mia did to her..

“There’s a kid in the room.. and nothing happened between us okay?” She gritted out in a low and firm tone..

Kyle’s lips pulled up into a teasing smile, he took a glance at Ray who was obviously piqued to know what they were talking about..

“Oh really?” he arched a teasing brow with a smug smile at the corner of his lips..

Arya pulled off her hands that was blocking Ray’s ears..

Ray looked at the both of them wondering what they were up to..

“Umm.. boss? Later in the day when Ray gets back from school we’ll be seeing a movie together.. I hope you don’t mind?”

Kyle shook his head gently, he picked the cup of coffee the male cook just brought in after which he bowed and left..

He brought the cup to his lips and took a sip out of it..

“We are going to see a movie?” Ray asked gleefully almost at the verge of bursting out with excitement..

Arya gave a nod to see the smile broaden on Ray’s face..

“Yeah we are baby”

Kyle’s phone beeped on the table, he picked it up and raised it to his ear..

“Alright, i’ll be there soon… and lastly set up a meeting with Arya Carter, I’d like to meet with her today for lunch”

Arya’s smile froze on her face on hearing Kyle’s last words, alright things just went from up hill to down hill..

She had a lot of things to take care of today and it wasn’t going to be possible to meet with him especially for lunch, she opened her mouth to speak but Kyle rose up to his feet..

“I’ll drop him off..” Kyle assured with a smile before leaving the dining room..

Ray stood on the wooden chair and planted a soft kiss on Arya’s cheek..

“Don’t miss me all day alright?”

Arya gave a nod and bade him goodbye, as soon as he left, she turned around walking towards the stairs..

Charlotte screamed out in fright staring at her reflection in the mirror, her chest heaved up and down in anger..

This was it! the last shred of her sanity was broken, almost immediately her door pushed open only for Arya to appear..

“I heard you scream-C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Her sentence caught midway as Charlotte turned to her, her face..

It was way worse than yesterday, and even redder and extremely unpleasant to look at, she placed a palm over her mouth resisting the urge to throw up right there..

Hatred flashed past the sharp orbs of Charlotte, how could she forget who the real culprit was? her once pretty face was now covered with red ugly bumps..

“What are you doing here?!”

“Relax! it’s not like you’re that pleasing to stare at anyway, too bad you won’t be able to step out of the room.. you look hideous!”

Charlotte charged at full speed towards Arya who quickly docked away from the raging bull’s attempted attack on her..

“Get out!” She fired harshly pointing at the door..

“Alright ma’am! I’m leaving but guess who’d remain indoors for at least a week?… not me” Arya jested before leaving the room..

Chad squeezed Bryan’s shoulder lightly after learning about his recent ordeal, he didn’t want to seem like someone who says ‘i told you so’ right after something bad had happened..

“I’m sorry man.. I thought we talked about this, but like always you didn’t pay heed to me… now you’re planning to get married to a girl you don’t like”

Bryan twirled the glass of whiskey gently in his hand before taking the content in one go, he parted his lips slightly with a sigh escaping his lips..

“Well I had to.. she was about to jump off her balcony..”

“My dad already fixed the engagement, it’s holding tomorrow night” he added with a huff..

He grabbed the bottle of whiskey and poured a little amount into his glass..

“I’m f*cked up already! I messed up big time and there’s no way to fix this” he continued..

Chad bowed his head feeling bad for his friend, but the deed was already done to feel remorseful now..

“Your dad seem to be pushing this a little bit too fast don’t you think?”

Bryan gave a nod, but none of all these concerns him as of now, what bothered him the most was Chloe, she hadn’t left his mind all throughout yesterday till now..

As if reading his thought Chad suddenly spoke out “And what about Chloe? does she know about this?”

Bryan’s eyes clenched tightly at the mention of her name, the only lady who didn’t do much to gain his attention..

How would she take the news of his engagement? would she be happy or bothered by it?

His lips curved upward into a subtle grin, perhaps she’d be totally uninterested by the news..

“I’ll send her the first invite” he declared taking a shot of his glass once more..
