The Billionaire's Secret Lover

"Mr Thompson, I'll suggest you keep your hands to yourself from now on. Nina is my girlfriend and it's my duty to take care of her. Why don't you go comfort your wife to be".

I walk away sad and downcasted while Austin cover her with his jacket. He guide her outside to his car and drove her home. I stood at the balcony and watch them from afar

I still couldn't believe that Nina will replace me so soon. What of the connection we felt?. I love her with everything I have and will do everything to take her from Austin.

I walk away from the window immediately they left and went to find my parents. I met them in the conference room at the hotel arguing among themselves. The Melton's were also there and Debbie she sat down on the couch crying. Immediately I walk in they all quiet down and turn to regard me.

" what was that show you put on, at the auction. Michael?"

"Mom. It wasn't any show. I just came back from receiving an urgent phone call to find out that Debbie has found herself a replacement..........."

" If you didn't leave, I wouldn't be stuck with a guy I don't even want to be with" Deborah counter in cutting me short.

"Why couldn't you tell them to wait still I come back. If you don't really want to jump so fast into another man's bed" I felt a sounding slap across my face and turn to see Deborah shaking with annoyance. She turn to leave without a second glance.

"Good riddance" I mutter and turn to face her father who has rose from where he sat with his wife.

"I will not have you insult my daughter in my presence. Michael!!" He point a finger at me annoyed. "We are not forcing this alliance on you. It was both consented. I will not have my daughter treated like a trash by you or anyone" He turn to my father" Talk senses into your son's head or consider this alliance off". Then he storm off with his wife behind his heel.

"What was all that Michael. I thought we warned you to stay away from that girl" My father say clearly pissed off as he run his hands tiredly through his hair.

"Mom, Dad. I love Nina so much. I hope you understand that I'm doing all this because of you and not because I love Deborah"

"Then I will advice you to continue treating her nicely or else consider yourself cut off from your inheritance" Dad walk away annoyed, leaving me alone with mom.

I sat down heavily on the couch which Deborah has vacated a short while, mom move close as she wrap her hands around me.

"Mom, please make dad understand. I don't love Deborah and will never would" I pleaded with her

"Micheal, your father and I knows what's right for you and we will never lead you astray. Nina has nothing to offer you but with Deborah your future is secure"

"But I don't love her.............."

"With time you will grow to love her. I and your father didn't marry for love but look at us now, we are inseparable" Mom try to persuade me, I knew her mind was already made up, I turn to peck her on the cheek as I smile sadly at her.

"Thank you mom, I will call Deborah by tomorrow and apologize to her" She smile happily as she bade me goodnight.

I walk out of the room carrying my blazer on my shoulder. Immediately I got into the lobby, Vino and Victor were waiting for me. I walk up to them.

"Hey big brother, where are you taking us to tonight" Victor said climbing to me, like a little child. Vino clasp me tightly on my shoulder as well all walk out into the night.

We are currently sitting in a bar drinking,I really want to get drunk tonight. I never would have believed that this would happen to me. If only I knew, I wouldn't have made that decision I took six years ago. I still can't wrap my brain around this, that Nina is dating Austin Walker. Why Austin? Why?.

"Are you alright?"Vino said sounding concerned as he noticed my unusual quiet attitude. I turn to look at him but I wasn't really seeing him, my thoughts were far as I wonder into the land of unknown.

"Michael?" Vino shouted as he shook my trying to break me from my thoughts. I look at him as the tears fell from my eyes. Vino and Victor were shocked, as their hands stilled on the drinks. Even I was shocked, I've never shed tears before in my life. I was always the stronger one between my brothers.
