The Billionaire's Secret Lover

Chapter 17: Michael

I stood up abruptly from my chair as I throw the remote I was holding at the smart screen television in my office. It makes a dent on the screen but I didn't care. I can't believe Austin said that at a live interview, that I killed his sister. I close my eyes as I envisioned the tears that fell down Nina's eyes. My heart bled knowing fully well that I'm the cause of her tears.

I open my eyes at sound of my phone ringing, a quick glance at the caller's ID shows my dad.

“Michael Vincent Thompson!!” My dad screams filled my ear as I pull the phone away from my ear. Leave it to my dad to remember my three names when he's annoyed.

“Yes, dad” I reply as soon as he has calmed down.

“You killed Mia Walker? How?” He asked shocked.

“I didn't kill her, dad. This is just a conspiracy”

“Aceepted that you didn't kill her. I need you to step down as the CEO of Thompson's Empires for now, let Vino take over until all this dies down. Ok”

“No, dad. I'm no longer the young boy you need to protect. I'm thirty two years old, dad, I can handle this by myself ” I said adamantly.

“ Michael Vincent Thompson!!!” My dad screams again as I ignored him.

“Yes, dad. I can handle it” I reply not fazed at all.

“Are you sure, son?. I'm not speaking to you as the chairman of Thompson's Empire but rather as a father”.

“I will be ok, dad. And if at all I need your help, I will not hesitate to ask of it”.

“Ok. And make sure to invite Deborah over for dinner, take care of yourself” I slump onto my chair as I closed my eyes briefly.

“Aurora? Come into my office” I called into the intercom. A minute later, she walks in.

“Yes, sir, you sent for me”

“ Tell Mark to bring the car, I will be going home soon” I said to her as I type away on my computer.

“ I'm sorry sir, but you won't be able to leave” She said apologetically, I turn to look at her shocked.

“What do you mean by that?”

“There are thousand of reporters outside seeking to speak with you and there are also a lot of them camping outside the gate to your house, you won't be able to go home either” She replied as I stood up to open the window blind. I was shocked at the number of reporters gathered in front of my company. I thought she was exaggerating but this; they are much more than thousands.

I close the blind just as my phone rang, I walk over to my desk to pick it up. My hand froze on the phone as I noticed the caller's ID. It was Nina calling. I pause a bit contemplating whether I should pick it or not. This is the first time in ten years, she has ever called me.

“Hello” I call into the phone as I have finally decided to pick it.

“I need to see you, Michael. Where are you?” She said, I listen to her sweet soothing voice, she was trying badly to mask the tears in her voice but I still heard it alright. And it shattered a million bones in my body knowing fully well that I'm the caused of it.
