The Billionaire’s Son Chose Me!

Arya flinched under Kyle’s scrutinizing gaze, she shook her head slowly in protest to Chad’s words..

“That’s the truth Kyle! she’s your wife! and you both were about to get married…

“Stop it Chad! what has gotten over you?!”

Arya matched straight to Chad with an angry expression, this was a public place! what if Kyle gets one of those seizures again?

“He has to know the truth Arya! the longer he stays by Charlotte’s side, the more he’s likely to dwell in his past!”

Chloe yawned lazily as she stepped out of her room, her eyes rounded in shock when she spotted a familiar woman in her living room..

Arnold looked up to her the moment she stepped in..

“Chloe”

Cynthia called out with a small smile, this was Mrs Alexander and also Bryan’s mum..

“Mrs Alexander? what brings you here?”

Cynthia placed the cup of tea she was offered gently on the table in front of her, she stood up to her feet and walked in light but fast steps to Chloe..

“Can I speak to her in private please”

Chloe sent a pleading gaze to her brothers who were already at alert, they reluctantly left the living room to them..

Cynthia took Chloe’s hands and led her back to the sofa, where they took their seat, she lowered her gaze afterwards which drew a line of worry on Chloe’s face..

“Ma’am are you alright?”

“I heard about your break up”Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Chloe’s lips formed an ‘o’shape, was it really necessary to tell his parents about the breakup? for goodness sake it was just a pretend relationship..

“Yeah we did..”

“Bryan doesn’t return home to his villa anymore neither does he drop by at our place… and last night he came back home in a very terrible state.. and since then he hasn’t gone out of his room”

Chloe’s brows lifted in amusement, she wanted to laugh her guts out but seeing the older lady’s pitiful expression she gave up on it..

“Okay? but what has this gotten to do with me? I mean he’ll come around right?”

Cynthia held Chloe’s hands in between hers shaking her head slightly..

“He looked way to broken to be ignored, maybe it was about the breakup”

Chloe was left speechless, she really didn’t see Bryan that way and so does he, infact the dummy has been hanging around with different women lately..

“I don’t think so”

“Please come home with me..

Arnold suddenly walked into the room with a loud snort “No she won’t! your son sees my sister as nothing more than a plaything! and I won’t let her life be ruined by him!”

Chloe sprang up to her feet the moment her brother showed up..

“Arnold please not now..”

They were lucky the lady of the Alexander wasn’t a proud and arrogant woman otherwise, she wouldn’t miss a chance to trample on them..

Arnold pointed a finger to his sister’s face with a cold glare..

“You’re going nowhere Chloe!”

Chloe turned to the older woman who has now broken down in tears..

“Mrs Alexander please don’t.. I’ll go along with you”

She diverted her gaze to her brother who was seething in rage, she gets that he was just trying to be protective of her but this was a bit too much for her to handle..

“Big bro.. trust me I’ll be back before you know it”

Arnold sighed and pulled her into his arms, stroking her hair tenderly “if you come one second late I’ll chop off your legs” he threatened next to her ears..

“Got it!” she declared with a light chuckle..

***

Kyle got a hold of Arya’s arm and led her back to the car after which he got in..

The car took a U-turn and hit the highways once more, all throughout the ride Arya’s heart was beating faster than normal..

She took a peek at Kyle whose hands were fisted on his laps..

“What are you all hiding from me?”

Arya heard him speak breaking the silence in the car that was suffocating her..

“Umm.. I have no idea”

Kyle chuckled dryly and caught her chin with his hands, he lowered his gaze to her..

“You know? I always knew that there was something off with you.. tell me the truth! otherwise I won’t go easy on you once I find out about it myself!”

Arya gulped down and gave a nod, she touched his hand that was pressing her chin together and pulled it off..

“Are you planning to rip my face off?”

Kyle Stared down at his fingers, the thick level of foundation that came off from a spot on her face made him even more curious to know who she was..

“What exactly are you after in my family? tell me and I’ll give it to you, it doesn’t matter what it is”

Arya met his gaze that was drilling its way into her soul..

“Nothing else other than You and Ray”

Kyle raised a brow at her in surprise, he relaxed back on his seat and stared straight ahead, for some reasons her answer stirred something in him..

“I meant what I said Kyle.. are you willing to give me that?”

Chloe handed the butler the spare key after she unlocked the door to Bryan’s room, she took in a deep breath and pushed the door open..

Her face scrunched in disgust as the stench of alcohol and cigarette struck her nose harshly..

His room was strewn apart with his clothes and bottles of liquors, beers and whiskey..

Her eyes finally rested on the figure who laid flat on the bed shirtless..

“Pathetic” she murmured through gritted teeth and matched straight to the bed..

She grabbed a pillow from the bed and smacked it against him..

“Get up!”

He didn’t budge at her first hit, she struck him again but this time harder till she finally got a reaction from him..

Bryan stirred and opened his lazy orbs peering at the lady in front of him..

“You dummy! get your lazy ass of that bed right this minute! your parents are worried sick about you”

All Bryan could hear and see was a lady rapping and moving weirdly in his hazy gaze, his eyes zeroed on her face and in a minute his eyes were cleared off of every leftover sleep..

He sat up on the bed and groaned out in pain touching the back of his head..

“Hangover am i right? yeah that’s what you get for drinking and smoking your lungs out!” she yelled furiously at him with her hands on her hips which Bryan found funny..

It suddenly dawned on him, how did she get in?

“What are you doing here?”

“I guess you’re doing quite alright now, your mum told me how pathetic you looked like last night, she said it was a result of our breakup”

She narrowed her eyes at him “I hope you really didn’t fall for me” she questioned with an interrogative stare..
