Forget About Me, Billionaire 55: This Afternoon
CHRISTY:Everette laughed. “It won’t happen, kitten. I won't fall for you. You can mark my words.”My hope crashed. The smile wiped away from my eyes. He was so sure about it that he wouldn't be falling for me. It must be because of my size. I was ugly and did not pass his standards.Or maybe he just loved Eden so much that he did not have any space for someone else.He patted my hair, tenderly. “I promise that this will be the best six months of your life. I will show you that you should not settle for less anymore. I will treat you like my queen.”“How did you know I always settle for less?”“Different men after every break-up?”“It wasn’t my fault that they always come to me when I am broken.”Tenderly, Everett put the strands of hair away from eyes. “You attracted assholes, kitten. A piece of advice. When you have your heart broken, the next thing you should do is heal yourself. Not to enter into another relationship with a broken heart. The new guy will break you again. I bet my
Forget About Me, Billionaire 56: Reminded
CHRISTY:Loving someone should not be this scary, but it was to me at the moment. I was scared of all the possibilities. That this will be another heartache and everything. Of course, this would be another heartache. Everette loved someone else and already made it a point. “You would cook for me?” Everette asked with disbelief in his voice. “You must think pretty bad of me.”“No, no. It's not like that.”It was like that. He was only being kind to me. I was quite aware of how I treated him before. It was bad. But now… I made up my mind. To the best of my abilities, I will be good to him until this will last. Because I realized that Everette did not deserve my broken version. He did not deserve my evil side. Even if this started as a business marriage, I will make sure that when we get divorced, no one will have any regrets.“You don't have to hide it. I am quite aware of how I've been to you. I will send you food for lunch.”He exhaled an air of disbelief as he continued staring
Forget About Me, Billionaire 57: A Thousand Dollars
CHRISTY:I know Mom would never stop running my mood, and she aced it for now. She will never stop calling me and she did until we reached the house. I was already happy being with Everette and temporarily forgot the problem I had to deal with when we were in the resort, but now that we were back to reality, it felt like someone had slapped me hard to be back in the present. My phone beeped and Mom’s text flashed in.“Christina. You will pay for this!” When I did not respond, she continued showering me with text messages.John kept glancing at me in the rearview mirror. “Are you fine, Christy?” he asked with a concerned look.“How was your relationship with your parents?”“They are still alive, and it is great,” he said, smiling. “Lucky you. How old are they?”“They are in their eighties, but still healthy and I wished them a long long life.”John must have loved his parents because he wanted them to have a long life. While Mommy…“We were poor but rich in values. We were also ha
Forget About Me, Billionaire 58: Truth
CHRISTY:Everette kept on looking at me and for once, I wanted to take back the words I said to him earlier. It was embarrassing and scary at the same time. I did not want him to think that I was using his money for our family’s benefit. But what I was doing was already proof that I was taking advantage of his wealth.What if…what if…I mentally shook my head. One step at a time. I had to think of one problem at the same time. If not, I would burst. “What would you use it for?” he asked, giving his full attention to me. He scratched the side of his neck.I groaned internally. Did he know I would be giving it to Mom?Don’t overthink, Christina. It was only between you and your Mom.I shifted in my seat as I looked for words on how to tell him. I would rather not say that Mom was blackmailing me so that I would give her money.“I’m…I’m planning on starting a business soon. It was only an initial estimate and I might have asked for more. You can add it to our debt, Everette. I woul
Forget About Me, Billionaire 59: A Couple of Years Ago
CHRISTY:Eden did not love Everette. That was the biggest surprise I experienced so far. Was there someone incapable of loving someone like him? He was the most ideal man I had ever encountered and not falling for him was one of the biggest mistakes someone could ever make. He was a complete package!“Can you believe it, kitten?” he asked. “My family would never understand why she did not fall for me. And I was too. I mean what should I do so that she will fall for me?”It was an unrequited love, but the amount of love Everette poured towards Eden despite knowing it wouldn’t be reciprocated was beyond comprehension.There was no difference between you and Everette. You both loved a person whom you could never love truly.Still…it was a shock that Eden did not love him at all. That was…surprising given the qualities that this man possessed.“Maybe…she loved someone else and really treated you like her brother.”He went back to his chair and put his hands under his chin. “Why is that?
Forget About Me, Billionaire 60: Dad
CHRISTY:The money had been transferred to me a few years ago, but I had not informed Mom about the money. I was still debating on what I should do with it whether to give it to her or not. She won't stop calling and I could sense her desperation. I did not think it was something about Dad. I was always monitoring his condition through the nurses and doctors. “What are you up to now, Mom?” I mumbled to myself as I stepped out of my car. I never brought John with me and told him not to tell Everette about this.I pulled over to my parent’s parking lot and the maid automatically met me when she saw me. Now that I realize it, the house that holds so many memories of my childhood and Ben became even lonely. There was nothing worth remembering in this house no matter how grand it was.“Miss Christy!”“Where is Mom?”She averted her gaze and went back to me. “She went somewhere else, Miss Christy. But she said that she will be back.”“She left Dad’s side?”“He has his nurse with him.”“
Forget About Me, Billionaire 61: Truth?
CHRISTY:Like a slow motion, I faced the newcomer. Mom. Compared to Dad, she became even younger from the last time I saw her. It looked like she did something to her body or went under the knife to become even more beautiful. What the heck was happening to her? She was not like this particularly when it came to her physical appearance. What if she would only spend the money on beautifying herself? For her own selfish reasons? "You don't have to fight our daughter."Mom scoffed. "Daughter? Why are you suddenly acting like a saint? You never wanted her, either. I remember how you said she was fat and was nothing to what you expected from your other child."Dad looked at me with a guilty expression…Funny how it was not painful compared to how Mom treated me. “If you did not want me in the first place, why did you even give birth to me?”Mom’s lips pressed into a thin line. “Why don't you ask your Dad? It was him who told me to have another child.”From the very beginning, I was
Forget About Me, Billionaire 62: Family Dinner
CHRISTY:Mom knew about Eden from the start, yet I did not know anything about it. No one had bothered to tell me the truth except now. They had kept me in the dark, which was painful. In the end, I was only used by Everette, Mom, and my family. My lips quivered even if I wanted to hide the surprise on my face. And she had a smug look on her face.“W-What do you know about Eden?”Mom threw back her head and burst out laughing. “See? You did not know that I know about Eden,” she declared after laughing so much while wiping the tears from her eyes. This was the first time she was happy beacuse of my statement.Mom shook her head. “Poor Christina. You never know anything about the man whom you professed who loved you.” The mirth in her eyes was suddenly gone in an instant. “I know my husband very well,” I defended.What do you know about him?Aside from what I learned when he was Rett and other snippets of his life when we got married, I knew nothing anymore. Mom lifted my chin and f
