CHAPTER 39: LEAVING MALDIVES
Talon’s P.O.V
Everything was happening too fast. There was nothing in particular I could think about that was going on. But, we had to leave Maldives.We really had to. It wasn’t safe. Naya and I got out from the room and moved down to the reception. The hotel was in chaos. Everyone was trying to run to safety. But no one had the slightest idea of what was happening and the safest place they could run to. I called the chauffeur that had been driving me and Naya throughout our stay in the Maldives.“Get into our room and bring our properties down,” I said to one of the porters in the hotel. He rushed to the room to get our things down. We felt more secured outside. Security was all over the place, trying to calm people down.But, they knew better than to calm me down. I had made up my mind to leave the Maldives even if it was late at night, and nothing was going to stop me.Naya and I werRelated chapters
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 40: POWER-COUPLE
Nelson’s P.O.VTalon and his so-called wife returned home. Our dad had not had a good rest since we heard about what happened to Talon’s wife. Seeing the duo back in the house relieved my dad from the heavy burden that he had coincidentally laid on himself.“Welcome, power couple. We’re so glad that y’all got back home unharmed,” he said. “Thank you, dad. It’s so good to be finally home,” Talon said.Power couple? Only if my dad knew who the duo really was, he wouldn’t be calling them that. My instincts never lied to me. I didn’t believe Talon and Naya’s relationship was real. There was something about it, something I was trying so hard to discover. I saw how happy he was. He couldn't stop smiling at them. He even forgot that my family and I existed. Talon and his wife was the star in the crowd. I wished that Naya had died. She didn’t deserve to live, especially since she
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 41: HOT SEAT
Naya’s P.O.VTalon’s reaction towards Nelson made me think that I was finally out of the hot seat that Nelson placed me on. But, I was wrong. Talon took me upstairs to the room. His facial reaction broke me. He had that look that showed he was going to blow up. He was mad, not just at Nelson but also at me.“What is wrong with you?” he asked me in a cold tone.“I don’t get you,” I said calmly.“How would you get me? You never get me. You just go around doing whatever pleases you. You don’t listen to me!” he yelled.“What have I done wrong?”“Everything!” he shouted. “Why do you always have to be so stupid?”“You’ve been saying mean words to me, but I still don’t get what I did wrong.”“Really?” he said. I nodded in agreement.“We only just got here yesterday, yet you think you could just start talking to Nelson. I don’t wanna see you getting into any conversation with him.”“You didn’t even ask about how it happened.”“I don’t care! Just stay out of the way of my brother. Don’t try ge
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 42: FIX THINGS
Naya’s P.O.VTalon had every right to be mad at me for not telling him who Kael really was. I was wrong for keeping it away from him. I had to fix things myself. I got into such a messy situation and only I could really bring myself out of it. So I thought. Meeting Kael for a heart to heart talk was totally out of the options I had to fix things. I didn’t want to set my eyes on him, ever. Talon was at the office. He was supposed to have a meeting at work. I wanted to speak to him, but I lacked the courage to. I didn’t want us to go into our usual sad mood. It was as if speaking to him was a readiness to argue, shout or cry. I was prepared to leave the building and cancel my plans of talking to Talon.**********Talon’s P.O.VA heavy sound came from no particular direction in my office building. I tried to find out where the noise had come from, but I couldn’t. The whole building was shaking like it was going to fall. The tension in the building rose above cloud 9. Everyone ran for th
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 43: THE LITTLE GIRL
Talon’s P.O.VI managed to open my eyes even though I found it difficult. My head was hurting badly. The little girl that I was trying to save was on the floor, unconscious. She was in my arms. I felt a liquid-like substance dripping from my head. I touched my head to see what it was. My head was bleeding profusely. With all the power I had left in me, I pushed some of the rocks that were hindering me and the little girl from escaping from the building. I succeeded in pushing the rocks away. The little child was in shock. I tried to pick her from the floor so we could leave the building. But, I was a little too late. One of the rocks fell on the poor child. Instantly, she was crushed into pieces. My heart was broken. I was too weak to cry, too weak to express what I was feeling. There wasn’t anyone to tell it to. I lost the child without even getting to know who her parents were.I was feeling dizzy and I needed to get out of the crushed building by all means. I pushed every other
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 44: TALON CAME BACK
Naya’s P.O.VIt took three days before Talon was able to finally open his eyes. I couldn’t contain my excitement. My silent prayers were finally answered. I wanted Talon back, and he really did come back to me. I was so happy that I hugged him tightly, not minding if he could still be in some form of pains. I just wanted to hold him close. My reactions made things absurd. I had concluded that Talon was going to snap at me, because it seemed like he didn’t want the hug. I pulled away from him.Surprisingly, Talon pulled me closer to him, and back into his arms. He held my face and caressed it gently. He made me look directly into his eyes. When I did, he kissed me passionately. I kissed him back, more passionately. Just then, the door swung open. Nelson walked in on us, majestically.“How nice... You’re finally awake,” he said to Talon.He dipped his hands into his pocket and brought out his phone. He called Eric and then his wife. He told them Talon was awake. I could hear Eric’s v
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 45: MY DAUGHTER IN-LAW
Eric’s P.O.VHow did this even happen? Who did such evil to my daughter-in-law? I watched the nurses as they were all in a haste to get her body into the emergency room. I stood with my mouth wide open. Was she dead or just unconscious? If she was alive, I couldn’t imagine the pain she was feeling. Her husband was lying on the bed still in the process of recovery, and now she had to go through such pains without him by her side. The nurses where running here and there, I couldn’t pick out any of them to talk to.Thirty minutes later, the doctors and nurses came out of the theatre. I approached one of the nurses. She was a blonde beauty. A tall lady with a shiny bright colored skin. She looked smart in her uniform. We moved to a corner to avoid gaining too much attention from passer-bys. “Hello, nurse,” I said to her.“Hello, sir,” she responded calmly.“The lady you just operated on is my daughter-in-law. I want to know what happened to her. Please, tell me,” I said. She saw how wor
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 46: FRAGILE
Talon’s P.O.VOne week passed and I was finally free to leave the hospital. I wasn’t given the full details of what happened to Naya but somehow I found out how fragile she had become. She didn’t want anyone else but me to touch her. The doctor revealed to me that she was traumatized. I had a hand carrier around my neck due to the fact that my neck bone got broken during the accident at the office building. My personal chauffeur drove us home. It felt good to be home with Naya by my side.Despite how tired we both were, none of us fell asleep even till evening. We were both lying on the bed, backing each other. I turned to face Naya who was still backing me.“How are you doing, Naya,” I asked. Those were the only words I could utter at that time. I knew she wasn’t sleeping because I could hear her practiced breathe.“Fine,” she said. She turned to face me and then she sat on the bed. All her focus was placed on me.“Are you sure about that?” I asked with concern.“Yes. I guess I am.
BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED BRIDE CHAPTER 47: THE HACKED ACCOUNT
Talon’s P.O.V It dawned on me that I had to do something to save the company. Since I had utmost control over the company’s account, I locked every accessible part of the company through my laptop. No one else but me could access anything in the company’s profile. I picked up my phone and called the military forces. I told them about the account that was hacked and how they needed to do something about it. Whoever hacked the account was after me personally, I said to them. The battle was between me and the hacker.“Talon, what’s going on?” Naya asked. I kept mute. “C’mon, tell me what’s wrong.”“Nothing, Naya.”“You can’t tell me nothing’s wrong. Something is definitely wrong. I’ve notice your discomfort and I care, that’s why I’m asking,” she said.I really wished that she could just let me be without me having to tell her to. I needed my time and space. Did she really have to speak to me? Why couldn’t she just leave me alone?“Please, I want to be left alone,” I said.She let
