Billionaire’s Runaway Bride Chapter 24- The pressure
“I hate you”, Ethan said as he pointed at his father with a trembling hands.“I hate that I do everything you ask me to do, and I hate that I’m living this kind of life”, Ethan said angrily and made his way out of the study.“Ethan!” Mr. Philip called as he stood to his feet and walked towards him.“Fix a wedding date, have your wife, and be the ideal heir according to the public. Your brother would be coming to live with you soon, and you don’t want him to trample on you”, He dropped, while Ethan clenched his fists and walked out of the study.He got to his room and let out a loud scream, after which he fell to the ground and broke into silent sobs. With rage burning in him, he stood up and shattered the flower vase that laid on his desk, ignoring the voices of some servants who were knocking on his door.He felt totally broken and devastated that for a minute, he wished he never existed.At the end of the day, he realized that again, he needed to do as his father had said. He had c
Billionaire’s Runaway Bride Chapter 25- Just a walk
“I just need to take a walk. I would be back before you know it”, Stan said to Kiara, who was clinging to him like a child.“I decided to come spend the night with you. I planned that we would watch a movie, have a chat, and you know, share some moments together”, Kiara said as she held Stan, giving him her puppy eyes that did well in getting him irritated.“Just a walk, Kiara!” Stan said defiantly, trying so hard to avoid getting her pissed.The last time he had gotten her angry, she had reported to her father, and that caused him to get some deduction from his salary.Not only that, he had also been threatened by Mr. White, with a clear and detailed explanation of how he would deal with him if he gets her angry again.“How many minutes would it take you?” Kiara asked as she peered piercingly into his eyes.“Maybe an hour”, he said and smiled pretentiously.His heart ached each moment he did something out of pretence. With every day that passed, he was beginning to discover that he w
Billionaire’s Runaway Bride Chapter 26- How long?
“Look at what my mother gave me”, Carissa said with a wide smile as she picked up the invitation card and passed it to Ethan.Ethan reluctantly collected it, trying so hard to conceal how disappointed he was with how she quickly had a change of topic.“What is this?” He asked with a giant frown on his face.“It’s a couple's funfair. I mean, my mum thought that it would be so great to attend it together with you”, Carissa said with a considerable smile on her face.She felt totally uneasy and deep down, she hoped that his attention would be drifted off the question he had asked.“This looks interesting”, Ethan mumbled under his breath as he dropped the card on the bed and returned his attention to her.“Carissa, sometimes I wonder if you realize how much I love you”, he said as he peered into her eyes intently, as though trying to discover something she was hiding.Stan stayed still outside the window, listening to their conversation and boiling in rage.A second ago, he raised his voi
Billionaire’s Runaway Bride Chapter 27- I love you, Ethan
“Tell me that you love me. You have no idea of how much I crave to hear those words from you”, Ethan said as he held her hands and peered piercingly into her soft eyes.Outside, Stan prayed that she wouldn’t utter those words to him. He needed no one to tell him that it would shatter his heart to the tiniest bits, and he wasn’t ready for that.“Carissa, tell me you love me”, Ethan persisted as his blood started boiling in fury.He couldn’t understand why she was scared and frightened of those words. To him, it was something that could be said anytime and to anyone, even without being serious about it.He had done it several times; telling countless ladies that he loved them. They always replied to him almost immediately, and that caused his heart to be at ease.He knew that none of them meant it, as they were only after his money. However, none of that seemed to bother him. Carissa was headstrong and different in that aspect, and that was beginning to get Ethan furious.“You can’t te
Billionaire’s Runaway Bride Chapter 28-Just a squirrel
“What was that noise?” Ethan asked as he quickly moved away from her and scurried towards the window.Carissa’s heart flew off her chest the moment she realized that it was definitely Stan.She quickly rushed to the window to block him from having access and taking a peak.Stan had mistakenly lost his balance while he was staring at them from the window. This caused him to trip and immediately, he landed on the floor with a thud.“Shit!” He cursed as he struggled to get up to his feet.His back ached badly and with a groan, he finally stood up and limped out of the premises and towards his car which was parked at the far end of the street.“I guess it’s a squirrel”, Carissa said with a nervous chuckle.“Then I need to confirm that myself. What if it’s a dangerous animal or, even, a human?” Ethan asked with a giant frown on his face.He was a very sensitive person and to him, there laid something hidden in every situation.“A human? That’s ridiculous”, Carissa said again, trying so har
Billionaire’s Runaway Bride Chapter 29- Silent oppression
“Babe! Are you okay?” Kiara asked the moment she caught sight of Stan, who was grimacing in pain and walking towards her.“I just need to take a quick bath and then, get some sleep”, Stan said as he walked past her and headed directly into his room.Kiara scrunched her brows in confusion and quickly sauntered behind him, trying to touch him but flinching the moment he shot her a dead glare.“How about the movie night we planned? What happened?” Kiara asked as a frown made its way to her face.She stopped right in her tracks the moment Stan banged the bathroom door on her face.Stan switched on the shower and buried himself in the feeling that came off it. His body was burning, and all he craved to do at that point was to let out a loud scream.He whimpered silently as tears finally fell off his eyes and mixed with the shower that poured on his body.He recalled the statement Carissa had made to Ethan and again, he felt a huge pang on his heart.“Maybe I finally lost her”, Stan though
Billionaire’s Runaway Bride Chapter 30- Hey brother!
Ethan got back into his room and took his clothes off. He took a quick shower, after which he poured himself a glass of alcohol.Just then, he heard a knock on the door and almost immediately, the door knob turned to reveal a young man who seemed to be younger to Ethan with a year or thereabout.“Who the hell are you?” Ethan asked as he stared at him intently.“Well, that can wait for another time. Actually, I’m here to take a tour at my father’s house”, the young man explained and chuckled calmly.His eyes darted to the bottle of alcohol that Ethan drank from.“I guess they missed out the part of my brother being an alcoholic”, he said with a wide grin, causing Ethan’s face to turn red in rage.“One more word from you and I would send you to your early grave!” Ethan threatened as he stood to his feet and took slow steps towards him.“Easy brother! It is not your intention to hurt me before my official introduction”, the young man said with a wide smile that pierced right into Ethan’s
Billionaire’s Runaway Bride Chapter 31- The meeting
Ethan slowly walked into the dining room, with a massive scowl on his face, and ignoring the greetings coming from the maid and housekeepers.“You came down late”, Mr. Philip said, with an obvious look of dissatisfaction on his face.Ethan ignored him and shot a dead glare at his brother, who was smirking at him and making funny gestures.“Apologize!” Mr. Philip yelled angrily, causing Ethan to jolt off his thoughts.Ethan shrugged, with his fists clenched and his heart thumping rapidly.He felt totally embarrassed, but knew that he had to succumb to what his father ordered.“I was busy with some things, I apologize for keeping you”, he muttered and took in a deep breath.Almost immediately, he heard the sound of someone munching on something hurriedly and lifting his head up, he saw his brother chewing on a piece of chicken that barely fitted into his mouth.“What the hell! Must you show us that you’ve been starving all these while?” Ethan said, raising his nose in disgust.“Ethan, be
