LUST LOVE: Slave To The Billionaire CEO

It had been close to thirty minutes, and there was still no sign of Keane.

Smiles could feel her knee weaken as she fell to the ground not minding it was her wedding day and her dress might get stained.

“Oh child, don’t feel bad, Keane can’t just disappear like that. Be strong” Grandma Shiley comforts, trying to be optimistic.

Smiles breaths in and out, heavily through the mouth. Her eyes are swollen from crying too much, “he promised to take me somewhere special for our honeymoon. He will, right? He will give me the ring he promised, right Grandma?” She asked in between her sobs.

“Grandpa, he is your grandson. Do you think he was being honest? Do you think he really wanted to make me his?” She asked eyes begging him to say something nice.

“Derrick, say something. He’s your friend, there can definitely be somewhere he’s gone to. I know it,” Smiles doesn’t know what she is saying, all she knows is she wants to see Keane.

Her sobs stop, and a frown appears on her face. Without wasting a second, she grabs away the keys from Derrick.

Before everyone could process things, she was already stirring the car out of the church premises.

“Go after her, follow her,” Grandpa Jimmy ordered.

Derrick was the first to get into the car Smiles came with them and chased after her, there was no way she would let her sister get hurt because of Keane’s indecisiveness.

Truth be told, Derrick has no idea where he’s gone to, he believed him when he said he loves his sister, that he needs no one but her.

“I don’t want anything bad to happen to her, she’s done nothing to deserve this” Grandma Shiley cries.

Grandpa Jimmy hugs her, “I don’t know what that brat is thinking, but I must definitely spank him as hard as I can, he will whimper, and beg for mercy but I won’t listen. How dare he? ” Grandpa Jimmy has never been this angry before. He’s always supported Keane’s decisions but, this is something he will never look past.

” Drive faster! ” Grandpa Jimmy orders, comforting the crying woman in his arms.

Smiles stop before the large gray building. It was the same one she came in to see Keane when they got their contract signed.

Without waiting time, she rushed into the building heading straight to the VIP section, to his room. In the room, she got the chance to see one

She steps out of the elevator, her steps reduced. Her bones were as though they would break if she took another step.

Slowly, she carries herself to the door, hoping he is inside. Her hands tremble as she attempts to knock on the door. Scared of what she might see, she holds her hands, trying to calm herself.

After a while of comfort, she takes a deep breath and knocks on the door. It took a while for the person inside to open the door.

The sound of the creaking door made her straighten up, she hoped and prayed it should be someone, not Keane.

But her strength and hopes came shattering like tiny pieces of glass all over the floor.

She saw him, those sets of gray eyes she’d come to believe in, she came to love and live for.

Shocked, she staggers three steps behind, Keane reaches out for her, but she stops him.

There is no need for him to try to show he cares, not after what he’s done today.

“Here you are, I thought something happened to you” Smiles struggles and says, eyes darting around him.

His shirt looks twisted, eyes dull and sad, but the three buttons that were left open didn’t go unnoticed by smiles.

“I waited for you, you never came. Why?” Smiles asked, gathering her little strength left.

Just then, Derrick walks in and is shocked to actually see Keane no one would have ever thought he was here.

Behind was Grandma Shiley and Grandpa Jimmy, alongside Wright and Austin.

The shock on their faces couldn’t be hidden.

“Tell me Keane, what happened?” Smiles cries, begging him to say something.

Keane stayed quiet, there were no signs or tears. He stares at her with a gaze of apologies.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Smiles move forward, reach for him, “I know there must be something you ain’t saying. Tell me, I will understand. You’ve hurt me but it will be worse to stay quiet, not telling me anything” she pleads.

Keane opened his mouth to explain but nothing came out, he couldn’t bring himself to utter a word.

What does he have to say? He’s hurt her in the worst way ever, the one thing he’s never seen himself doing.

Just then, the door opens wide and Lisa emerges from behind.

Smiles and Derrick were the most shocked.

Smiles eyes dart back and forth, unable to believe her eyes.

“L-lisa?” She stutters, tears prickling down her cheeks as if she’s been giving more tears to shed.

“What’s going on Keane, tell me. Anything you say, I will believe, I trust you, you know it. Tell me it’s not what I’m thinking” Smiles begs, hoping he says something but no matter how much she begs, Keane does utter a word.

“Smiles!” Lisa calls. Her voice is soft yet cracking. “I am pregnant” she burst out the news.

Everyone heard it, Derrick included.

“You are pregnant, for” Smiles stares at the two, she didn’t need a soothsayer to tell her.

Lisa is definitely pregnant for Keane, that can only be the best explanation for this.

She didn’t want to be weak, no she can’t. She breathes in heavily, nodding.

“I guess this is it, now I know. And I wish I had known early. But it’s never too late, it’s not” Smiles turns to leave but is stopped by a hand on her wrist.

She could feel it, she knew who it was.” What else do you want? You’ve gotten what you wanted, I never meant anything to you. I should have known better than to dream of a life I will never have.” She turns to him,” But it’s ok, I grab it now. And I promise never to stand in between you two. Never!” She shoves his hands away and leaves.
