The Billionaire’s Lust Love

Lashnia Guirro

(Flashback)

“Lia,” before I faced Ria, I let out a deep breath. Everything is really disgusting about her. I don’t like her. I hate her.

“Yes? Are you done?”

“Yep. Thank you for waiting.”

“It’s nothing,”

I walk with her to where she was staying. I thought she’s homeless since she ran away from my useless mother. Unfortunately, someone was helping her now and offered her a roof.

“Do you live alone?”

“No. I live with a friend, Divine,”

Friend? Another pest like her.

“Oh you’re home. Where have you been?” said by the woman with long curly hair with a tan skin. She’s pretty but I don’t like her. She’s like a b*tch too.

“Just in the plaza. Anyway, this is Lia and Lia this is my friend, Divine” Ria introduced me.

I step forward and offer my hand to Divine, faking everything in from of them. “Hi, I’m Lia,”

“Divine,” she accepted my handshake but her face showed no reaction. I looks like she doesn’t like me. I don’t like her either so the feeling is mutual.

“By the way, Ria, Agatha called earlier. She still couldn’t find the man,”

“Man?” don’t tell me they are looking for Steven?

“Vine, I’m fine without him. I’m going to work to support my baby,”

What did they talk about?

“Ria, do you hear what you’re saying? You stop studying to work even though you’re pregnant. It’s better that we ask the father of your child for alimony.”

“Where is he? I don’t even know his name. What if he has a family? Stop it Vine, I’m really fine.”

“Don’t be negative. And so what if he’s already married? He is still responsible for the child in your womb. Also, your child will find a father when he grows up.”

“But Vine-”

“No buts. We’ll check all the places in Canada to find him.”

So the father of her baby is Steven. I will k*ll this bitch. I’m going to fucking kill this b*tch!

“Umm…” they both looked at me. “I can help you if you allow me,”

I can’t let them know that Steven lives here.

“Really?” Divine.

“Yes. I can help you, my dad has a lot of connections in Canada.”

“Problem solved, Ria.” Divine said.

That’s what you thought. Fool! I will not help you. More likely, I will misled you about Steven’s whereabouts.

RIA POV

(Currently)

“Mamaaaaaa,” I heard the shrill voice of my daughter.

“Looks like your head hurts more from Stefanny’s voice than from what you’re reading,” John laughed when he saw the reaction on my face.

“You got it right, John. Even if I’m at the end of this house, I can still hear her scream,” the door opened and Stefanny came in carrying my comb.

When I looked closely at her face, I almost fainted to what she looked like. What the-

“Hello Grandpa,”

“Hi princess,” John greeted her back. My daughter kissed him on the cheek. I don’t know if I laugh or feel sorry for him cause every time my daughter kiss him, he wince.

“Stefanny, what did you do to my make up?”

“Mom, I’m pretty… right?”

Pretty? Oh baby, what did you do to your face?

“Grandpa, is Pane pretty?” John looked at me asking for help cause he didn’t know how to answer my daughter.

Her face covered with powder, the dark pink blush on her cheeks weren’t blended at all, and not to mention that the lipstick spread to her cheeks. She looked like Joker.

I really want to laugh but I hold it back because she must see that I am serious and not happy with what she did with my make-up.

“Stefanny, why did you mess with mom’s make up? Didn’t I tell you not to meddle with mama’s things?”

She apologetically glanced at me.

“Are you mad, mom?”

“Mama is not happy with what you did!”

“I’m sorry mom,”

I don’t want to be too strict with them. I know that I don’t have enough time to spend with them since I am busy with the company so I don’t want to give them the reason to hate me.

I sighed.

“Forgiven. Come here. I’ll kiss you,”

I took my handkerchief and wiped her face. Stefanny looked like Steven. She only got my lips and nose, the rest is up to her dad. I wonder how will Steven react once he finds out about Stefanny?

“Am I pretty now mommy?”

“Yep. Now, go to your room and tell your nanny that you needed a shower because teacher Ann will be here later,”

She followed me and ran out of the room.

After a while, the door opened and Vios entered. If earlier I was surprised by my daughter’s appearance, now I am laughing out loud at Vios’ state.

“Haha. Viosdado! What did you do?”

He frowned at me and sat down on the sofa.

“You really laughed at me, didn’t you?”

“Did my daughter did that to you?”

He looked like Bon-chan in one piece. Promise!

“I just slept. And I was surprised that I woke up like this.”

“Wash yourself. You’re so ugly,”

“By the way, before you continue with that, someone wants to invest with RLC,”

“Who?”

“Your ex,” he said in a serious voice.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“I heard that he was looking for you before,” John interjected.

“Just reject it,” I said referring to Steven’s proposal.

“Think about it, Ria. It’s a good opportunity for you especially since you don’t really hold the entire RLC yet…”

“We can find someone else,” I said.

I will not allow Steven to enter our life. I know what he’s plotting.

“Yeah. But in case you don’t know, your ex is taking down everyone who wanted to invest in RLC.”

WHAT?

“When it comes in business Ria, Steven is ahead of you. He is more experienced. He has many connections and above all, his company is also famous and stable because it is owned by their family by generations after generation.” John

“You’re a newbie, he’s an oldie,” I immediately picked up the ballpoint pen I saw on the table and immediately threw it at Vios. He’s still cracking a joke even though I’m not in the mood now.

At night I thought about what John said to me. He’s right. But…

“Mommy,” I looked at the door and I saw my children standing in the doorway holding a pillow. Stefanny has her eyes close while Hivo was holding her hand.

“Can we sleep here?” Hivo asked.

“Of course. Come here,”

They climbed up to the bed and lay beside me.

“You want to go to a real school, Hivo?” I asked weakly,

“Yes mom. Will you let me?” I could see the joy in his eyes. If all that had not happened to us, he could have a normal life now just like the other children in her age.

“Yes. Tomorrow we will ask Vios to fix your papers so that you can enter school on Monday,”

“Thank you mom,” he immediately hugged me which made me smile. He’s the sweetest ever.

“You’re welcome son,”

“I love you”

“I love you too. Mama loves you, always remember that,”

“Mom, will you be angry if I tell you that I emailed dad?”

I didn’t answer right away. I know that it will come to the point that Hivo himself will approach his father secretly.

“Did he reply to you?” I answered calmly.

“Yes mom,”

“What does he say?”

He didn’t answer. He leaned over and hugged me. He snuggled around my neck and hugged me tighter. I also felt the warm liquid touch my skin.

What happened? Why is my son crying?

“What did dad tell you?”

“Mama,” he sniffed and cried. “He said that I should forget him because he has another family and he won’t accept me as his son anymore.”

My blood boiled at what my son said. I would really kill that bastard who said that to him.

“Shh. Don’t cry son. That’s not true, okay? Maybe someone just hacked your dad’s phone. Your father loves you. I can guarantee you that,” I consoled him.

Steven won’t beg me about Hivo if he’s going to hurt our son. Someone sabotaged him and I will kill that person. I swear that!
