The Billionaires Desires novel Chapter 2

“Out,” I ordered the driver that still sat in the car waiting for my instructions. He got down and stood by the door, waiting. Brian got into the car and sat right next to me, he knew what this was about already, he did not wait for me to ask him twice, he quickly handed me the files, shaking like a leaf beside me. I opened it immediately and read through his notes, confirming what I know already. Ray had been hiding the truth from me all these years. Hillary is here in Paris and she has been here for more than three years. She has a hotel in a very good spot and she lives in a large but quiet estate uptown, just like the estate where I built our house. I nearly went back in there to punch Lawrence again, he had been seeing my wife for the past eight months and he told me that he hasn’t slept with her. I could kill that bastard for lying to me, but I had better things to do with my time so I won’t bother with him anymore.

There was a huge space at the end of the file and it has two huge question marks written boldly on it, signifying that he is still investigating something. Under one of the question marks, it says, “babies” and under the second question mark, it says “the girl”. I asked him what he was still investigating and he was just about to answer me when Raymond came out of the house and tapped on the car window, urging me to wind down and take the files that he got from Lawrence. I did not wind down the window, rather, I pushed the door open and stepped down from the car with Brian’s file in my hand. I snatched the file from him forcefully and I pushed Brian’s file into his hands with my eyes glaring daggers at him. He paled completely when he opened it, he couldn’t say a fucking word, he just kept looking at me in shame. I could see the guilt in his eyes and it hurts me to see that I have been right all along.

“Why, Raymond, why did you lie to me?” I inquired fiercely, forcing him to look down in shame.

“I’m sorry Mr. Trent. I wanted you to focus on the company. I thought she would be a distraction, I did not want you to bring your family back to New York until you take down all your enemies. I’m so sorry boss, I was just looking out for you.” 

“Are you fucking kidding me right now, Ray?

If you were simply looking out for me like you so claim, then why haven’t you told me about it since I took over the company?

It’s been eight months, Ray. Right fucking months since I became Chairman and CEO of my family's empire. All this while you said nothing to me, we’re you ever going to tell me, I mean, how long were you going to keep lying to my fucking face, when were you planning to tell me?” I yelled furiously. I did not even realize that I was moving closer to him, but I saw him moving away from me and I realize that I was moving to attack him in my angry state.

“So what else are you keeping from me, Ray?
