Betrothed To The Cold Billionaire

78



Bianca sighed tiredly as she plumped down on the soft couch. She was finally back from her shopping expenditures. The maids around helped her to carry the things she bought into her room.

“So how was the sightseeing??” Her father asked as he entered unto the room.

“It was very tiresome.”

“At least you were able to buy some sorry a lot of things that you like.” Her father said as he stared at the numerous shopping bags the maids were carrying.

“Yea and guess what… I got you something too.”

“Really? What is it??” He asked.

“A gift.” She answered as she opened her purse. She brought out a small box and gave it to him.

“Open it..” She urged happily. He opened the box and smiled when he saw a black necktie folded in it.

“You bought me a gift with my money.” He teased making her giggle.

“I saw this neck tie and it made me think about you. I figured I should get you something also and come to think of it, it fits you well.”

“Well, thank you so much for burning my back account.”

“Anytime dad. Here’s your credit card.” She stretched his card over to him and he collected it.

“I have to go try out my new designer wears, I’ll talk to you later.” She said happily as she scuttled into her room.

Her father smiled as he watched her leaving. It’s been a while he had seen her smile so genuinely. He was so happy that she was back to her old self. Maybe the vacation was a very good idea afterall.

He turned his attention back to the necktie and chuckled again. He covered the box before heading towards his study.

Bianca smiled happily as she clicked on the picture. She had taken a lot of photos with the new clothes she bought and posted them on her social media account.

It’s been a while since she last did that so her pictures where recieving a lot of positive feedbacks. It was as if everyone had forgotten about her scandals with Lucas and she was very happy about it.

Those days were one of the darkest days of her life and if given another chance, she wouldn’t have made the decisions she made back then. Life has been really peaceful since she had decided to let go of all of her anger and hatred.

She was still lost with taking more photos when she got a call. It was from an unknown number. Thinking that it was Landon, she hesitated a little before she picked the call.

“Hello.” She said.

“Bianca.” Her breath hitched when she heard that familiar voice. She quickly ended the call before he could say anything.

She held her chest tightly as hurtful memories started rushing back. Why was he calling again?? He made it clear to her that they were done so why was he reaching out to her now??

Why can’t he just let her be? She had been trying so hard these past few days to forget him but just a phone call from him brought back those memories of the hurtful things he did to her.

She sniffed as tears gathered at the corner of her eyes. Her phone made a ding sound indicating that she had recieved a new message. She picked it up and clicked on the message icon.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

The tears that she had been holding back fell down freely as she read the messages.

“Bianca, it’s me Lucas.”

“I’ve missed you so much. I made a mistake in breaking up with you.”

“I want us to get back together.”

“We need to destroy Ariel together.”

“Please call or reply me when you get this.”

Bianca bowed her head in sadness as more tears flowed down her eyes. Why?? Why does he like doing this to her. Why is he so hellbent on putting her through all these misery?

If he was still obsessed with his revenge against Ariel, why did he call her? What was he expecting her to do? Throw away the peace of mind that she has all for a revenge plan that would obviously backfire.

There’s no way she will let any one ruin her newfound happiness. Not even him. She lifted her phone and clicked on the number that he used to call her then she blocked it. She also blocked all of his social media account that was following her.

“I’ve found a new life Luacs, you should too.” She muttered.

Oliver stared at the test results in his hands with disbelief written all over his face. He just couldn’t believe what he was seeing. How could this happen?? Why now when he was finally getting to live his life the way he wanted??

He read the test again and again to see if he was making a mistake but he wasn’t. The worst that he had feared had finally happened but no one could ever find out something like this exists.

He carried the papers and put them into the shredding machine in hus room thereby shredding it into different tiny bits. That still wasn’t enough for him so he packed them out and chewed on the bits of paper till they were all smudged by his saliva before he finally threw them into the trash bin. He was still deep in his thoughts when he heard a knock on his door.

“Come in.” He said after he had made sure there was no evidence of the paper in his room. It was his mother.

“Do you want something??” He asked rather coldly.

“Not really, I just wanted to call you out for dinner.” She answered.

“Okay, I’ll be down in a second.” He answered as he gestured for her to leave.

Oliver’s mother sensed something was wrong with him as he kept staring at her coldly but she couldn’t place her hands on what was wrong. She decided not to pressurize him into talking so she left him alone.

That gave Oliver time and space to ponder about what he just found. No one can ever find out about it or else it would cause instability in his family. No one at all most especially his father and Adrian should find out.
