Two worlds apart~ Chapter 1 Get yourself a fiancee

" Mom why are you here?"his cold voice echoed in the sitting room as he ascend the stairs, with his hands tucked in his tuxedo suit like a demigod.

" don't I have the right to be here?"Mrs Del'mundo asked furrowing her brows

" you should at least let me know before coming" he said and sat down on a sofa

Mrs Del'mundo looked around the whole luxirious sitting room before sitting on a sofa facing him.

" don't you get tired of being alone?"she asked but he ignored her question by looking away.

" am talking to you Hillary Del'mundo!!"she half yelled with anger and sadness visible on her face.

" not now mom"he groaned and check his expensive and flashy wrist watch.

" I gotta go now" he stood up walking away leaving his mum

" don't tell me you're walking out on me?" She asked as she walked after him to the parking lot.

" what does it look like am doing"he said without turning back as he walked to his black Lamborghini.

" You're no longer a kid Hillary!!"

" Mom!! am just twenty five okay so let me off the hook already"he said and opened the car door but his mom hit the door and it shut immediatly with a loud thud making him to flinch.

" you're going nowhere if you don't set me a date to show me your fiancee"his mum said in a serious tone.

Mrs Del'mundo is a beautiful woman in her mid-forties with blonde hair and hazel eyes. She wearing a fitted red gown with slit at the back, a red heels and black designer bag.

Her heels kept clicking as she followed Hillary to the parking lot.

" are you ready to leave this house or we both remain here?"she smirked and he scoffed.

" mom really!! you're delaying my meeting, I have some clients to attend to for fuck sake!!"he groaned but Mrs Del'mundo wasn't ready to listen to him as she held the handle of the door so tight and Hillary let out a frustrating sign.

" Mom just give me some time I would find a bride for myself"

" same old story!! you keep telling same old story,how many times have you told me that?, no!!no!! don't answer it, I will do it myself"

" This is the one thousand and one times you've told me this"she rolled her eyes.

" why do I have such a crazy woman to birth me" he muttered lowly rubbing his forehead in frustration.

" I heard that"she said

" fine!!fine!! just give me a month, I promise to find a beautiful and elegant fiancee" he said feigning a smile

" I won't buy that!! it just one of your numerous lies just to let you off the hook, but trust me I won't let you fool me with your lies"

" I promise mom" he said with pleading eyes.

The woman he loves with his whole heart is his Mom and he can't trade her for the world. She's the only one who can make him smile even if he is mad, upset, sad.......

She's the best thing that has ever happened to him and she's the only person he is not cold towards.

" I won't fall for your pity face"she told her eyes again.

" Mom if you keep rolling your eyes they might fall off"he said and she rolled it again.

" are you leaving!!"

" Okay fine!! If I don't bring my fiancee after this month you gave me then you're free to get me one"

" Is that a promise?"

" Yes it is , so can I leave now?" He asked and she let go of the car's handle and he got in immediately.

" don't try me Hillary Del'mundo" she shouted as he drove out of his mansion.

" Such a crazy woman" he smiled and drove off to his company.

DOLPHIN GROUP OF COMPANIES

" You're welcome sir" the staffs all stood up to greet him but as usual he put on a cold look ignoring their greetings.

He walked Straight to his office without sparing them a glance.

He sat down in his chair, took the telephone which was neatly placed close to his laptop.

He punched a number on the telephone and placed it on his ear.

" Come to my office now"his commanding voice could send shivers down anyone's spine and without waiting for a reply he hanged up and concentrated back on his laptop.

Not to long a guy came dressed in suit, he is Reece Fargo his manager and assistant.

" Good morning Mr Hillary "Reece greeted but Hillary just nodded and Reece frowned.

He knew Hillary wouldn't answer his greetings right from the very first day he started working with him as his assistant and manager.

He has been cold towards everyone and barely talks except during board meeting or urgent meeting.

Some of the staffs in the office call him cold-blooded boss, cause he is as cold as ice.

" I wish his heart could be open again to love....... wait what am I bluffing, this dude here can't change no matter which lady comes into his life, and moreover all lady's are after his money and good looks anyway, they don't love him a bit and that's what is annoying me"Reece thought.

All this while Reece was lost in thought, Hillary stared at him for a while before continuing.

" How busy is my day?" His cold voice could make shivers run through anybody's spine cause of how cold he sounds.

" The investors from Moreno oil company would be here in an hour, you also have a meeting with the clients from Korea............."Reece kept reading from the tablet he was holding.

When he was done Hillary signed and relax his back on the chair.

" Sir should I cancelled your meeting with the investors from Moreno oil company" Reece asked with hesitation in his voice, cause of the look Hillary throwed at him.

" Did I complain to you?" Hillary raised his brows giving Reece a questioning look

" Thought you're tired of going to different meetings"Reece muttered.

" Are you tired of your job?" Hillary asked and Reece immediately shook his head.

" Prepare all what I need for the meeting with Moreno oil and also prepare my meeting with my clients from Korea" he said and turned to his laptop again.

Reece left his office and shut the door behind him. He immediately let out the breath he was holding since he entered Hillary's office.

I spent four hours preparing a five-course meal for our fifth anniversary. When Jackson finally walked into the penthouse an hour late, he didn't even look at the table. He just dropped a thick Manila envelope in front of me and told me he was done. He said his stepsister, Davida, was getting worse and needed "stability." I wasn't his wife; I was a placeholder, a temporary fix he used until the woman he actually loved was ready to take my place. Jackson didn't just want a divorce; he wanted to erase me. He called me a "proprietary asset," claiming that every design I had created to save his empire belonged to him. He froze my bank accounts, cut off my phone, and told me I’d be nothing without his name. Davida even called me from her hospital bed to flaunt the family heirloom ring Jackson claimed was lost, mocking me for being "baggage" that was finally being cleared out. I stood in our empty home, realizing I had spent five years being a martyr for a man who saw me as a transaction. I couldn't understand how he could be so blind to the monster he was protecting, or how he could discard me so coldly after I had given him everything. I grabbed my hidden sketchbook, shredded our wedding portrait, and walked out into the rain. I dialed a number I hadn't touched in years—a dangerous man known as The Surgeon who dealt in debts and shadows. I told him I was ready to pay his price. Jackson and Davida wanted to steal my identity, but I was about to show the world the literal scars they had left behind.

Marrying My Runaway Groom's Powerful Father

Marrying My Runaway Groom's Powerful Father

I was sitting in the Presidential Suite of The Pierre, wearing a Vera Wang gown worth more than most people earn in a decade. It was supposed to be the wedding of the century, the final move to merge two of Manhattan's most powerful empires. Then my phone buzzed. It was an Instagram Story from my fiancé, Jameson. He was at Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris with a caption that read: "Fuck the chains. Chasing freedom." He hadn't just gotten cold feet; he had abandoned me at the altar to run across the world. My father didn't come in to comfort me. He burst through the door roaring about a lost acquisition deal, telling me the Holland Group would strip our family for parts if the ceremony didn't happen by noon. My stepmother wailed about us becoming the laughingstock of the Upper East Side. The Holland PR director even suggested I fake a "panic attack" to make myself look weak and sympathetic to save their stock price. Then Jameson’s sleazy cousin, Pierce, walked in with a lopsided grin, offering to "step in" and marry me just to get his hands on my assets. I looked at them and realized I wasn't a daughter or a bride to anyone in that room. I was a failed asset, a bouncing check, a girl whose own father told her to go to Paris and "beg" the man who had just publicly humiliated her. The girl who wanted to be loved died in that mirror. I realized that if I was going to be sold to save a merger, I was going to sell myself to the one who actually controlled the money. I marched past my parents and walked straight into the VIP holding room. I looked the most powerful man in the room—Jameson’s cold, ruthless uncle, Fletcher Holland—dead in the eye and threw the iPad on the table. "Jameson is gone," I said, my voice as hard as stone. "Marry me instead."
