Forever with the Billionaire

Hilary POV

“I am leaving once we’ve seen the waves.” Mr. Andrew announced as Loukas and I sat down to eat dinner.

“Are we almost there?” I asked him because I was already getting impatient and the sun had already set, meaning it was soon to be nighttime.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“We are closed and the next minute you should see.”

” Whatever we are seeing is none of my business. I have to be alone with my wife. ” Loukas reminded him, glaring hard at him as if he wanted him gone right at that moment.

“Be patient, Mr. Whitemore, I…”

“Goodness!” I squealed. “There is a whale over there!” I clapped my hands and shouted out loud. Jumping to my feet, I headed toward the edge of the yacht and watched as a blue whale swam below us. It was magical and the first time I had ever seen something as lovely as a whale. “This is amazing!”

“I told you it was going to be magical, but you thought I was lying, didn’t you?” Andrew commented as he stood beside me.

“Move away from my wife or it will be the last time you ever have legs,” Loukas threatened, and I laughed at that thought, but I was too occupied with the whale to respond to his jealous attitude.

“Babes,” I moved closer to Loukas since he was seated alone at the table and wheeled him closer to the edge of the yacht. “That’s the whale over there,” I said, pointing to the whale taking too long to swim away. “It’s amazing, right?” I asked him, but he gave his usual sarcastic comment.

“Do I have to jump into the ocean to find out if it’s amazing or not?” He retorted, and I chuckled at his comment because I expected it. Loukas was the type of man to make sarcastic comments and wouldn’t care if you wanted to hear them or not.

“I think your husband is the type of person who doesn’t like nature,” Andrew said.

“Coming from a fool who doesn’t have anything except ogling someone else’s wife,” Loukas laughed.

“At least that’s nice enough because I can steal your wife and you will not do anything about it!

“Say that again and I will throw you overboard!” Loukas threatened him.

Unable to keep up with their ranting and comments and everything going on with them, I had to stop them. “Enough, guys!” I shouted at them, separating them from their stupid argument. “Because of your argument, you have missed the whales,” I pointed out Faraway where the whale was headed towards.

“Tell your friend to take us back and leave us alone!” Loukas told me.

“Why are you against me?” Andrew demanded to know why Loukas hated him, but he wouldn’t know the kind of person Loukas was because of his personality. I was used to him, unlike Andrew, who couldn’t understand his egotistical character.

“I am not against you,” Loukas said to him. “I just don’t like your face.” That was the stupidest thing I have ever heard in my entire life.

How could someone hate someone because of their face? I thought and looked from Andrew to Loukas. They all stared at each other as if they were having a staring competition.

“Your wife and I are just friends, and there is no need to bother about anything between us because I have a girlfriend and a daughter back home. ” Andrew cleared his throat once he was done revealing what was on his mind and turned to leave.

“Where are you going?” I felt sorry for him because he sounded as if the whole world was against him and he was the only one in the world.

“I was going to take you back to the island and let you and your husband,” he stressed the word “husband,” and walked away without saying anything else.

I heaved a sigh and stood in front of Lucas. “You do know that your action was uncalled for, right? ” Lucas chuckled and gave me a questioning look as if he didn’t understand what I had just said.

“Aren’t you not going to say anything?”

Loukas continued staring at me, saying nothing while he watched me closely as if he was observing me.

“What do you want me to say?”Loukas asked me

“You shouldn’t have said all those things to him because he was around me.”

“He had his arms around you. What was I supposed to do, huh?” Loukas rolled his eyes, and I facepalmed myself. He had bluntly confessed that he wasn’t jealous when I had asked him, and if he wasn’t, then I believed that he shouldn’t have acted that way towards Andrew. He shouldn’t have been mad about seeing us together because our marriage was a sham and it made it clear the day that we signed the contract together.

“Why are you acting this way when you said you aren’t jealous and do I have to remind you that our marriage is a sham?” I blurted out.

Loukas chuckled, but I could see the look in his eyes and the way he stared at me as if he didn’t want me to say that. “You called our marriage a sham all because of Andrew?” Loukas asked, and I could detect the sadness in his tone. He didn’t sound happy, and it was all my fault. I shouldn’t have called our marriage a sham, but it was the truth.

I tried to explain to him. “I didn’t mean to say that,” he raised his hand and stopped me. “Why won’t you let me explain it to you, huh?”

“Because there is no point in it Hillary! You’ve made it clear to me already! Our marriage is a sham, so there is no point! ” He yelled at me and heaved a sigh when he realized what he had done. “I think we should stop arguing about this and just forget the whole thing ever happens!”

“You should try and listen to me. Loukas, I didn’t mean it that way….” I tried to explain myself so he’d understand, but he cut me off.

“There is no need for you to explain yourself, Hillary. The sun has already set, so that’s enough. I need to rest in the cabin. Please take me there, ” Loukas requested with a smile on his face, but I knew that it wasn’t real. His smile was not real, and he wore a frown on his face like he didn’t want to see me at all.

Since he didn’t want a conversation with me, I forced a smile on my face and nodded in response to his request.

I stretched forth my hand for him to take as we both walked down the stairs that led into the cabin. His right side was leaning on me while he walked with his left leg. Once we’d reached the cabin, I laid him on the bed and covered him up with a blanket. The bed in his cabin was king-sized. The cabin had a mini dining table for two people and a small kitchen that smelled pretty nice as if someone had prepared something for us before our arrival, which was the truth because Loukas had prepared a chef in advance so we could have a lovely night together, but I had ruined all of that because of my actions and attitude.

“I am sorry,” I apologized to him, but he turned his face to the other side away from mine as if he didn’t want to see me. “I shouldn’t have called our marriage a sham, but it’s the truth and you always say it!”

“Please leave, I need to be on my own,” he said.

I cleared my throat and nodded in response.” I’ll be outside. If you need me, you can call my name, but I want you to know that Andrew is a man who is trying so hard to survive due to the hardship that he is facing. It’s none of your business but you deserved to know, “I told him and turned to leave, hoping that once I returned, he’d have a change of mind.

Once I was out of the cabin, I saw Andrew staring at the ocean, and I walked to meet him. “I am sorry about Loukas. He is not that kind of person,” I defended Loukas, even though his personality was far worse. Loukas was not a bad person, and only those who got closer to him would understand the kind of person he was, and I already knew that a long time ago.

“I understand you and I also understand him. He must be in a difficult situation, and I’ll be like that too if I can’t move a part of my body,” Andrew replied and turned to face me. “He is a smart man with a stupid personality, but aside from that, he is a lovely man.”

I nodded my head and smiled without saying anything else. “He was pretty angry a while ago because I heard everything. I think you need to ask for his forgiveness, “he advised.

“And how do I do that?” I asked.

“By seducing him,” Andrew advised, and I gasped because I never expected him to say that. I turned to face him with my mouth wide open. “Seduce him, and you’ll never be sorry,” he winked at me.

“Oh no! I thought you were a saint! ”

Andrew chuckled. “Never judge a book by its cover,” he laughed. ” That’s the only way to win back his heart,” he winked at me yet again and I burst out laughing.
