Married To The Confused Billionaire
Adventure George's experience as a child affected his love life drastically, and he found it difficult to love any lady. Although, his parents loved each other, but the stories about his grandparents were alarming. His maternal grandfather killed his daughter when he had a squabble with his grandmother. Afterward, his grandmother killed him in his presence, and the picture was indelible in his mind. Not only that, the former General Manager of his father's company, The Blue Sea Oil and Gas Group, Mr. Bruno Angus, abandoned his wife and children for another woman. While he was yet to recover from that, he learned that the current General Manager, Mr. Tony Benedict, was abandoned by his wife. The straw that broke the camel's back was when he learned that his favorite uncle's fiancé walked out of their relationship for no tangible reason. Those occurrences made him to believe that love was not worth his attention.
Nevertheless, he was swept off his legs when he met Rose. Initially, he did not attach any intimacy to their relationship, and Rose accepted it that way. However, after a few months of relating with her, he discovered that he could love, and had fallen in love with her, but it was too late. Mrs. Sarah Owens, George's mother, had chosen Rose, a well-behaved girl, to be her son’s wife, and she accepted because she believed that she would be comfortable with her as a mother-in-law. Unknown to her that George was Mrs. Owens' son. Nevertheless, when Mrs. Owens informed George that she had found a wife for him, he blatantly refused to accept his mother's choice. Meanwhile, Rose would not accept his proposal because he had given Mrs. Owens her word. In the heat of the moment, to prove to his mother that she cannot impose any lady on him, coupled with Rose's rejection of his proposal, he went for another lady, Sophia Badmus, but it was a mirage. He could not bring himself to love her. Meanwhile, Mrs. Owens introduced Rose to Regan Owens, her nephew, and George's cousin, and Rose thought he was her son, and gladly accepted him, but there was a problem. Nevertheless, George went berserk, and resolved to get Rose back, even if it would cost him his life. Now, Regan was not willing to let go, but Mr. Evans Owens, Sarah's husband, George's father, and Regan's uncle, stood his ground and ensured that true love prevailed. He ordered Regan to hands off Rose, and she married George, her hard and confused billionaire. You might like
The Billionaires Unwilling Vows
G.Gordon CRACK.
Daniel landed a clean punch right to Leo's jaw. I gasped, hand flying to my mouth, but internally? Oh god, that was satisfying to watch.
Ally and I latched onto each other, giggling like schoolgirls, and took this as our cue to GTFO.
We bolted from the VIP section, dodging security and weaving through the crowd until we reached the DJ stage. The bass rattled my bones, the lights flashing in dizzying neon colors.
Ally clutched my arm. "What the hell did you say to that guy, Daniel?"
I burst into laughter, now fully slurring. "I told him that Leo was my obsessive ex. That I had a restraining order against him, and he wouldn't leave me alone."
Ally's jaw hit the floor. "Celeste. YOU DIDN'T."
I grinned wickedly. "I did. And then I told him if he protected me, he could have me all night long."
Ally full-on SCREAMED, grabbing my shoulders. "You evil little genius."
We howled with laughter, ignoring the chaos happening behind us. The VIP section was in full-blown war mode, but us? We were thriving.
Dancing, spinning, arms in the air, riding the high of the night. We climbed onto one of the podiums, bodies moving with the music, our dresses clinging to our curves. We were reckless. We were untouchable.
Until we weren't.
One second, I was basking in my freedom. The next, a pair of strong hands gripped my thighs, and before I could react-I was THROWN over someone's shoulder.
Everything tilted. My stomach lurched. I shrieked, pounding my fists against a broad, muscular back.
"WHAT THE FUCK-PUT ME DOWN!"
I twisted my head, and even through my blurred, drunken vision, I knew exactly who had me.
Leo.
