The Billionaires Desires novel Chapter 2

Now I’m truly convinced that he is planning something big. His attitude to everything I just said has proven to me that whatever he is planning, it is really big. He looks so confident of his plans and it got me thinking so hard, what exactly is he planning for me and what is he using to blackmail my grandfather. I kept glaring at him as if I could find answers to these questions plaguing me in his face. He must have felt my eyes on him, he raised his head and returned my gaze, smirking even more evilly, if that was even possible. I want to wipe that smirk off his face with a slap, I want to punch him so hard until he spills out everything that he is hiding. 

My blood was boiling hot and my anger could be seen in my countenance. I had to leave before I do something crazy, I had to walk out before I get physical with that bastard brother of mine. To think that he could look me in the eyes and smile at me after screwing a girl that is supposedly my girlfriend, how audacious!!! I could strangle him to death and I wouldn’t feel an ounce of regret or remorse. He has no right to do what he did, and someday, when I finally take over completely, I would deal ruthlessly with Travis, for now, I just have to ignore him and act ignorant to all his evil plans.

“That would be all for now gentlemen. Our next meeting would be on zoom. I’m terribly sorry for any inconvenience this might cause to anyone, be rest assured that when I return from this trip, everything would go back to normal.” I said with confidence and poise as I stood up and left the conference hall, leaving Rosie and Travis to handle the rest of the meeting. I put across a call to the pilot, telling him that I will be arriving at the airport in a few minutes. He assured me that he just finished doing his routine checkup on my private plane and everything was in order. I called Costello to know if he has any updates for me, but he had nothing new to tell me. He tries to talk me out of this trip one more time, but I insisted on fulfilling my promise to Gramps, after all, the sooner I get this over with, the sooner I can come back to my woman.

She was leaning on the backrest of the car, sleeping like a baby. I wouldn’t blame her, she had gotten little to no sleep last night and it’s all my fault, id kept her awake all night long. I got into the car, shutting the door gently so I don’t startle her awake. I pulled her into my arms, pecking her forehead softly, playing with her hair.

“How did your meeting go?” she let out in a tiny whisper as she snuggled closer to me, curling herself in my arms. 

“It went well, my love. Better than expected even.” I lied to her. I don’t want her bothering about our family business, she doesn’t have to know that my family is messed up. It would be better to keep all of that information to myself, at least for now. She woke up on the road as we drove to the airport, looking so cute as she scrunched up her face and yawned. I chuckled softly, looking into her eyes with a warm smile on my face.

“I’ll miss you, my love, I don’t know how I’ll survive without you,” I muttered softly, pulling her in for a heated, passionate kiss. We made out at the backseat of my SUV as the driver drove me to the airport. It was so hard to turn around and walk into the plane, leaving her behind. I kissed away a lone tears that slipped out of her eyes, promising to keep my vows to her. I kissed her one more time before heading towards the plane, with the pilot and hostesses standing in a row, waiting for my arrival.
