Tempting the Billionaire and His Heir

I felt anxious and my tummy churned as I saw the letter. I looked around and noticed the mess that was around Nolan, where he sat. It seemed like he had thrown things out of anger.

Fear gripped me as I felt the air was tensed, I looked at Nolan with guilt and regret. Then he looked up at me, and I could see disgust and anger beaming like lasers at me.

He kicked a small miniature model of the BCI building next to his father’s desk. I jumped at this reaction and my hands became cold, I began to apologize to Nolan as I knelt down.

He didn’t say a word and brought out a necklace that Anthony had given to me. I couldn’t bear to look at him for long, guilt had overwhelmed me.

“How long have you been hiding this truth from me? How long?” He slammed his wrist against the table, with rage.

I began to stutter as I couldn’t control my words due to fear of being caught, and not in the nicest way.

“How long have you been lying about having a brother? ” He asked, with rage in his eyes.

I still couldn’t find the courage to speak out as I was in tears and watched him throwing questions at me.

“When did you start sleeping with my father? Wait, have you ever loved me?” He asked in pain as tears rolled down his cheeks.

My heart broke as I saw him in tears and I finally found my tongue.

“I truly love you, Nolan. I had no choice than to do this, and I really wanted to put an end to it, sincerely,” I said, rubbing my palms together, pleading.

“Liar! I can’t believe these web of lies! What’s your relationship with the man that killed my father?” He shouted at me, restraining himself from hitting me.

“He is my ex and I chose Anthony over him. Anthony had always been obsessive over me and I witnessed how he always belittled you. Try to remember how I picked you over Anthony after all. Please, you have to believe me,” I pleaded with tears welling up again.

“Have you ever tried calling the cops to tell them the location your ex wanted to carry out his operation? Do you know how much I wanted to follow my father to the grave after his demise? You are the cause of my father’s death!” Nolan continued to shout in anger.

I decided to overlook his last statement as I felt he said it in anger. He looked as if he noticed I didn’t believe his words, and this angered him the more.

“We shared moments together and they were a lot. You had every chance to tell me the truth, you could have told me then, so we would forget about it,” he punched the wall continuously in anger as blood started trickling down his knuckles.

“How could I tell you in that state? It took me a long time before I could get you out of that depressed state, how could I possibly tell you the truth then?” I yelled at him, as I tightened my eyelids to let the tears fall.

“Just leave,” he said calmly as he sobbed.

“But….”

“Leave.”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
