Billionaire Ascendancy

Her fear

“I know that you’ve got what you wanted. I hope we can still date for a while first before you will think of leaving me behind to date someone”. She let out such words politely as I scoffed at her words then bowed down close to her and touched her face.

“What made you think that I would do this with you if I really don’t have the intention of dating you or I don’t like you? I found you to be someone who I can be with so please don’t hurt my feelings by having such negative thoughts about me Okay? I’m not who you really think I am. I’m not bad. I don’t sleep around with ladies anyhow. Just trust me okay?”

I assured her in order to remind her and let her know that I didn’t do this to take advantage of her.

“Can I tell you something?* I shrugged at her as she nodded her head in agreement with my words. “Right from the moment I set my eyes on you, I knew you were the one for me, trust me”. I could see the stunned look in her eyes the moment I confessed my love to her and I decided to end everything in a good Life by proposing to her in the bathtub where she was.

“Since I have found the right woman of my choice, will you be my girlfriend for now? Then we can proceed into the main thing gradually? I know at this moment I need to reveal myself for her and that will probably be next week. Right after we’ve been on good terms of being boyfriend and girlfriend to each other.

“Of course I will”. She let out a scream, her gap teeth showing. “Right from the moment I saw you I’ve always felt a connection for you and I never knew it could grow this bigger”.

She proceeded with excitement written all over her Face and I decided to give her a kiss before walking out of the bathroom.. but inside of me, I was damn scared. I was scared about her thoughts. What her reaction will be the moment she finds out who I was. Would she accept me immediately or would she reject me instantly and wish never to see me again? Which one? I scrolled up to my WhatsApp messenger and started replying to the message that was sent to me. Not quite long she came out of the bathroom looking all fresh with a towel wrapped around her Body as she came to stay on the bed with me.

“Can I ask you a question?” Her voice distracted me from what I was doing as I narrowed my gaze at her and focused on what she was going to say. “yes. Go on”. I assure her, while thinking of the question she could probably ask me tonight.

“I’m sure you’ve known my family and you know about my parents. What about yours? Where are you from? Which family are you from?” My heart skipped in fear the moment she asked me those questions which I knew I probably couldn’t answer her. Telling her about my family which she already knew is the same as revealing myself to her and I don’t want such a thing to happen. How will I really tell her about this without hurting her feelings?

“Trust me Raven. Once the time comes, I will tell you all you need to know about me but not for now . I’m sorry if you don’t like my idea”. I just want her to understand me and know why I’m doing this. “It’s okay. I do understand”.

She said with a smile and we went to sleep that night. I woke up early in the morning, had my bath and got dressed, and so was she.

We headed out of the hotel room and went outside to meet the cab man who had already been waiting for us. I won’t be making use of my car because I’ve called one of my guys here to take it to the garage, where he normally used to keep it since I will be flying out of Korea today. Raven noticed something about the car and asked me where it was. I politely told her that my guy had taken it away. In the next thirty minutes we got to the airport and at that moment, everywhere was already occupied with people as we went to the VIP Exclusive Area and the plane took off immediately.

We finally get to New York as I part ways with Raven after booking her in a car that will take her directly to her house. Since it was Sunday, I plan on staying indoors for today. I finally got home and took off my masks. Gosh, I was so tired over the stress that I have gotten for today.

While doing my daily routine, I received a call from an ‘Unknown number’ on my phone which I don’t know about and in curiosity, I decided to pick the call.

“Baby how are you doing?” The person’s voice echoed through my ears as I pondered who could have been calling me baby apart from Raven. Trying to detect the voice, I found it to be someone familiar. “It seems like you’ve gotten the wrong number huh. Do you know Me? How could you refer to someone you don’t know as ‘babe’ ? At this moment, I was so impatient with the person that I actually wanted to end the call but on hearing her voice again, I remembered her.

“I guess it’s been a long time we really see, which is the reason why you can’t really identify my voice”. She spoke out and I could only scoff. “Ava William!!” I yelled out her name as she burst into laughter.

“That’s right honey. You finally remembered me. How are you doing? I have been trying to get in touch with you and finally, I finally found you”. Her tone shows so much excitement to have a word with me again.

“How do you get this number? Who gives you my number Ava? I rasped in at her as she Scoffed. “Are you really that Angry at me right now even though you haven’t seen me? Come on, reduce your voice. I’m not the reason behind your sadness, okay?” She bellowed at me.

I thought she must have learnt some manners but not knowing that she was still this rude as usual. “What do you want? I don’t remember us having a business together so why have you called me all of a sudden?”Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

I shrugged at her in anger, pondering who could have given her my number because I don’t want to have anything to do with her.

The moment she made all my hard work go away, I wanted to stay as far from her since that event made me know the type of person she was. “Shouldn’t you be happy that I called you despised knowing the fact that we aren’t on good terms? That shows my care for you Stefan”. She uttered as I Scoffed, getting irritated by her words as I just wanted to end the call and focus on what I was doing before. “if you don’t have anything important to say then let me know so that I can end this fucking call because I remember that I don’t have any business with you”. I could feel the sudden change of her tone the moment I threatened her with those words.

“Please don’t. I just want to let you know that I’m available. Remember that Particular Day we bumped into each other coincidentally when you Said you were looking for a serious date right? It’s really sad for someone like you to be Single after all those years and guess what? I’m also happy to say that I’m single as well. Why don’t we go back to the way we were before Stefan? I’m sure we look pretty good as a couple and don’t you think that we were destined to be together? Just think about everything. It seems like fate is calling us together”.

I couldn’t help but laugh Inside of me hearing her words although I didn’t want her to know that. I just want to show the Angry side of me to her. “Do you really think so because I don’t and mind you, I’m not single. I have already met the perfect partner for me so I will suggest you to go look for yours and stop trying to lure yourself around me”. Although that was harsh, I do know that she needed to hear the truth.

“Since you’re rejecting me the second time then I have no choice but to go and Dãte your cousin’s husband who has been disturbing me since”.
