Love, Lies and Billionaires

Chapter 27



The car came to a screeching halt and almost ran into the other car in front of it. Maren’s eyebrows were furrowed and heavy with anger and fear.

She drummed impatiently on the steering wheel as she peeped at the traffic light, which chose the worst time to turn red.

Rose, who sat in the back seat, could only steal glances at her boss through the rearview mirror as she knew the situation they were in was half her fault.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

Maren stepped on the gas as soon as the light turned green, throwing rose back in her seat. She was glad she had learned how to drive a long time ago and not rely on drivers.

Keeping her eyes on the road and her mind on her aim, she swerved into an estate and increased the acceleration as it was a straight road. Finally, she turned and brought the car to a halt in front of a massive gate.

She watched as a button on the gate turned red and the auto gate began opening…but slowly. She sat in the car, tapping her feet lightly on the gas pedal and fuming as she watched the gate sluggishly open up.

“Fuck this!” She turned off the engine and bolted out of the car, slamming the door behind her.

Rose pursued suit as Maren squeezed her way through the gate and angrily made her way through the massive but pleasant compound to the front door of the house.

“Nathan!” Maren’s voice echoed through the house, ignoring the guards around the entrance. “Nathan!” She screamed again, looking around the house.

“Mummy?” The voice came from the stairs at the far other end of the living room. Maren bolted over to the staircase and met Nathan coming down.

“Oh my god, Nathan” she exclaimed as she pulled him in for a tight hug while heaving a sigh of relief. “Baby, are you okay?” She asked, looking him over with a look of dread on her face.

“I’m fine, mummy” Nathan said, confused but glad that his mom was here.

“Did he do anything to you?” Maren asked again, looking straight into his eyes.

Nathan frowned. He was starting to get scared. “No mummy. He said we’ll go out for ice cream,” he said and paused. “What’s wrong mummy?”

“Oh nothing baby,” she said and pulled him in for another tight hug.

“Now, isn’t this nice?” William exclaimed, strolling down the stairs.

“Rose,” Maren called as she stood up from where she had crouched to hug Nathan. Rose, who had been watching silently in relief, quickly walked closer to where they stood.

“Take Nathan with you and stay in the car,” Maren ordered as she kept an angry eye on William, who had a pleased mien plastered all over his face as he got to the last step on the stairs.

William just folded her arms and watched Rose and Nathan walk out the door before turning to Maren, maintaining his demeanour.

“How dare you kidnap my son!” anger flashed in her eyes.

“I didn’t kidnap ‘my son’, Maren. I’m a cheat, not a monster,” he replied, like being a cheat was some achievement. “I only asked to be with him for sometime. There’s no harm in that, is there?”

“You literally told your men to hold rose back while you went to get Nathan”

William chuckled and walked over to a table where a bottle of wine and a glass stood. He uncocked it and poured himself half a glass while looking at her.”It only sounds like an abduction when you say it like that.”

He took a mouth full and after letting the sting go down his throat, he flashed her a smile, like it would pacify her. “If it makes you feel any better, he followed me and did all he did, on his own will.”

“You are a lunatic, William!” She shot back, moving closer to where he stood. “He’s just a kid. You could traumatise him!”

“Frankly speaking, we only played a few games and got to know each other. Nothing more than that, Maren,” he said. Dismissing what she said and downing the rest of the glass.

“You lay another ginger on my son and I promise…”

“You promise what?” He interrupted and placed the empty glass on the table. He folded his arms and walked towards her. Close enough for their bodies to almost touch.

Looking down at her, she could smell his breath of his favourite wine as he spoke. “You promise what, Maren. Don’t forget, he’s also my son. You really can’t do anything against me”

“That’s not true” she said and pushed him. Instead, he caught her hand and pulled her close, then wrapped his other arm around her waist. Pinning her against his body.

“Let go of me, you fucked up piece of shit,” she retorted, as she knew trying to wriggle free was useless. William was quiet, staring at her with obvious lust in his eyes.

“You know, we could just raise Nathan together and we’ll put all these behind us,” he breathed. His familiar alcohol filled breath fanning her face. He bent his head and kissed her neck, automatically rendering her powerless.

“We could put the world behind us and be a happy family” he traced the kiss up to her jaw and squeezed her ass. She turned her face away and tried to stay mad at him and not completely melt at his touch.

Slowly, he traced his hand and squeezed it into her office pants and felt her bare ass beneath. She bit her lower lip to avoid letting out the gasp which hung at the tip of her lungs, as she really didn’t know why he let him do this to her.

‘You were happy before and after him…He broke you…he left you…he wasn’t there when you needed him the most…he doesn’t actually still love you…”

“We will be happy together,” he whispered in her ear.

“No!” She yelled and pushed his body away from her before landing her hand hard on his face. “Keep your filthy hands out of my life and Nathan’s”
