Betrothed To The Cold Billionaire

87



I was about to head into the closet when I noticed someone sitting on my bed. It was dark in the room so I wasn’t able to tell who it was. I quickly turned on the lights in the room and was very surprised to see who it was.

“Adrian..” I muttered in shock.

“Wifey.” He called with a small smile as he stood up and took slow strides towards where I stood.

“What are you doing here?” I croaked out when I had finally gotten over the shock.

“Why else? To take you home.”

“Well, not sorry to say but I’m not going anywhere with you.” I deadpanned.

“Why not?” He asked in surprise. I gave him a very short glance before I scoffed angrily. I opened my mouth to scream out at him but held myself immediately.

“He isn’t worth it. He’s so not worth it.” I chanted within me as I managed to calm myself down.

“You don’t need to know Adrian. Just leave now because there’s no way I’m leaving with you.” I muttered, leaving no room for arguments.

I turned on my heels and was about to head into the closet when he pulled me back and engulfed me in a very tight hug. He had my back facing him as he wrapped his hands tightly around my waist so I wouldn’t be able to escape.

“What are you doing Adrian??” I asked in anger.

“I’m sorry..” He answered. I really wasn’t expecting him to apologize this quick so I was silent for a while.

Adrain wasn’t really someone that would admit his wrongdoings this fast. I always have to force an apology out of him. The way he apologized made me really suspicious.

“Why are you apologizing?” I asked.

“For a lot of things..”

“Like???”

“For cutting our honeymoon short, for not explaining what was wrong and for leaving you alone at the airport. I’m really sorry.” His voice sounded so sincere that I couldn’t help but turn to face him.

“Adrian.” I called as I placed both of my hands on his cheeks.

“The only thing that made me really mad and disappointed was the fact that you couldn’t explain to me what made you act like that. I’m your wife and I’m supposed to share all of your burdens. It would be so hard for me to do that if you can’t even tell me if something is going on with you.” I complained.

“I know and I’m really sorry. My attitude was really uncalled for. I hope you would just find a place in your heart to forgive me.” He said hopefully.

“How can I not forgive you when you’re staring at me like that?” I asked and that made him chuckle.

“Thank you baby..” He muttered as he placed a small peck on my forehead.

“You’re welcome. Now, can you explain to me what happened earlier??” I noticed that his expression suddenly changed when I asked that question.

“Ariel, can we not talk about this today? I’ll tell you when the time is right.” He whispered.

“Fine. Just so you know, I’m always here to give you a listening ear when you need one.” I assured.

“Thank you baby. Can we go home now??”

“No…”

“Why not??” He asked as he groaned in frustration.

“It wouldn’t seem right if we just leave without even meeting my family. You know I haven’t seen them for a long time now.” I explained.

“But they can wait. As your husband, I’m your first priority and all I want rght now is to just spend the rest of the night with you without any disturbances.”

“We won’t be disturbed. We have the whole of my room to ourselves.”

“It wouldn’t be like being in a mansion alone.” He argued. I giggled when he said that.

“What’s funny??”

“I never knew you were this greedy.”

“I am??”

“Yes, we’ve spent the last week all to ourselves but you can’t just manage just a night of more companies.”

“You can’t really blame me. I’m already getting used to having you all to myself.”

“So how are you going to cope when I resume school next week?” His mouth opened agape like he suddenly recalled something.

“I completely forgot about that.”

“Obviously. So what are you going to do?” I asked again.

“I would have gotten you home schooled if I could….”

“What??” I asked in surprise.

“…. but you obviously aren’t going to agree with that decision so that’s out of the options.” He added.

“The only thing I can do is to just bare with the fact that my wife is still a high school student.” He muttered in a rather sulking manner.

“Disappointed??”

“Slightly but what can I do? You just have to make more time for me and we won’t have any problems.”

“Is that a threat?” I asked.

“No, I’m just negotiating with you.” He answered.

“Whatever you say… Also, I want us to stay here for the night.”

“Fine..” He said in defeat.

“But we’ll leave very early tomorrow.”

“Deal. Right now, you need a bath.”

“Why? Do I stink?” He asked as he sniffed his clothes.

“You have a very weird scent emitting form your body, I can’t sleep next to you if you’re going to be smelling like this.”

“Whatever you say darling.” He said as he took off his shirt in one pull.

“What are you doing?” I asked when I noticed he was taking off his belt.

“Stripping.” He answered in a very curt manner.

“Why are you doing it in front of me??”

“You’ve seen all of me already. What’s left to hide from you?” He asked as he took of his shorts and briefs. I shrieked out and covered my eyes in shock when I saw his dick spring out. He on the other hand was laughing at me.

“You can come for another round of shower if you wish.” Was the only thing he said before he disappeared into the bathroom.

When I noticed that he had left, I uncovered my eyes. What the hell is wrong with him? Why doesn’t he even have an ounce of shame. I shook my head and bent down to pick up his clothes that he left on the floor.

From the corner of my eyes, I noticed a paper fall out of the trousers pocket so I picked it up. I stared at the picture in surprise. I never knew that it was taken.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

It was a picture of how we both cuddled to sleep the last time we were here. Who took the photo and how is it that Adrian has this? Now that I think about it, the only person that can do something like this is my mom.

Also, the day we left, I noticed they were both staring at something. It was the same thing Adrian had refused to show me. I can’t believe he was admiring me sleep. What a lover boy.

I smiled and was about to take his clothes to the maids for dry cleaning when I felt something in his pockets vibrate. It was his phone and someone was calling him.

Out of curiosity, I removed the phone from the pocket. The name I saw flashing on the screen was enough to turn my mood sour. Why was she calling him at this time of the night??
