LUST LOVE: Slave To The Billionaire CEO

It wasn’t like there was something she could do but it pains to know she died giving life to her and she didn’t have the chance to say ‘thank you’ and to even let her know how much she loves her for everything.

“And me…how did I end up in the orphanage?” She asked in between her sobs.

Mr. Wright stares at her, unable to speak. What was he to say?

That he chased her mom away with her being pregnant for him?

That he was misled and made a terrible mistake?

Like, who the fuck will accept such excuses?

“This is not the right place to discuss this…can we all go inside?” Derrick said, breaking the awkward silence.

“No…I want to hear it all, here and now” Smiles interjected, unwilling to let go.

She’s been asking herself this question for what seems like a hundred times but never got an answer to it.

At first, she was mad at her mom, thinking she left her in the orphanage because she didn’t want her. She was wrong to quickly just her mom and she regrets it after hearing the reason behind her disappearance.

Had it been she was alive, maybe her childhood wouldn’t have been a terrible one.

She wouldn’t have spent years in the orphanage, eating like a slave and working out her heart every day.

Even if life had been hard for her, just maybe her mom would have made it even better with her presence.

Seeing her all persistent, Mr Wright waves at Derrick, stopping him from uttering his next word.

“I won’t hide it, you deserve to know the truth,” said Mr Wright. Smiles could only stare at him in anticipation, waiting for him to say something.

“We…I and your mom had a misunderstanding…and then…I got angry, and sent her away” Mr Wright explained in a cracked voice, there was no way she could keep his cool.

Tears roll down Smile’s cheeks at his words. What type of problem did they have to the point he had to chase her away? His wife…didn’t he love her?

“I didn’t know you were my child…I didn’t know the person she was pregnant for was no one but me…and I regret it all, everything ” Mr Wright cries, for the first time in public, before everyone.

“Wait…does that mean you chased her away because she was pregnant with me?” Smiles asked and he nodded, there was nothing to deny.

She staggers, almost falling but thanks to Keane who caught her right before she could reach the ground.

To think he never wanted her from the beginning hurts. To think she’d found her family only to realize she was never welcome left her crumbled back to dust, to the dirt she thought she was finally out.

“Take me home…please!!!” She pleads, it barely came out as a whisper but Keane was Keane enough to hear her.

In the next second, she was in his arms as he carried her outside.

Grandma Shiley and Grandpa Jimmy followed them, it’s not like they could do anything.

Derrick knew better than to chase them. He was hurt when he learned the truth about his mom and sister and as much as he wants her to accept and forgive, he knows she will need more time to forgive and learn to come to terms with everything knowing how hard her life has been.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Mr Wright stood there frozen to his spot. There was nothing he could do, and it hurt to watch her leave.

All he could hope for was her forgiveness.

In the car, Smiles couldn’t stop herself from crying. It hurts more than she expected.

Why were her own things always different?

She just never gets anything right, her love, her family…nothing.

Keane silently pulls her to his chest, patting her hair softly.

Lying on his chest with his arms circling around her was all she needed right now, his sweet scent lingering in her nostrils sent a comfort feeling through her body, as she found herself flooding in his comfort.

The car stops before the usual large white mansion as he carries her inside directly to her room where she was placed on the bed.

She was exhausted from crying too much. As weak as she was now, she couldn’t do much to help herself undress but Keane was so generous enough to help her out as he first of all unbuckled her heels before carrying her to the bath, placing her in the warm bath he prepared for her.

It felt strange somehow but she could barely think straight, her mind was in a mess, a state of confusion.

After bathing her, he quickly takes him before carrying her to the bed, where he hugs her to sleep.

There was nothing Smiles was grateful for other than this moment, having him by her side to give her a sense of hope even though she knew it was hopeless.

Keane died understanding why he was doing all that he’d done because it was unlike him to be this concerned.

He’s never done this to anyone, not even Lisa whom he said he loves…never.

But somehow, he felt himself drawn to all these, wanting to make her feel better…not liking her shed tears unnecessarily.

And for some reason, it aches him to see her cry.

Was it because he’s used to her or what?

“Maybe because she helped him when he was sober…and he’s just returning the favor,” he thought to himself, bringing out reasons for his concern. and strange feelings.

Staring at the girl’s sleeping face, there was nothing he could wish for but to stare at it every single day in his life, to have her wrapped in his arms and to protect her from anything that would hurt her.

Little did he know that he was the biggest thorn in her heart and the main reason behind her aching heart.

Nothing hurts Smiles more than to know he belongs to another and will never be hers.

To see him treat another like a queen and precious jewelry while she stands by the side, hoping he gets to see her and at least, treat her with a little bit of love.
