Married To The Heartless Billionaire 40. Finding it difficult
SOPHIA CASTILLO"Do you like the dresses?" Adrian asked me on the phone.It's been over a week since I returned and over a week since he asks to be my friend. Since then we have been trying to get to know one another.The next day, he took me out to fancy five-star restaurants. He said he didn't wasn't used to things like this but he just wants to try things out."Yes. I love them all. I can't choose the one I want to wear for the event since they all match the theme," I told him."Well, I had one in mind but I wanted you to be the one to choose for yourself but since you are having difficulty choosing, why don't you wear the one with the beads. I think that would look better on you," he said and I carried the dress with beads on the bed with my hands to take a look at it.It did stand out compared to the other two dresses."Fine then," I told him."Okay. I will call you later today when the driver comes over to pick you up. Take care of yourself," he said."Sure and thanks once again
Married To The Heartless Billionaire 41. Feeling awkward
SOPHIA CASTILLOI was very nervous. I barely came to an event like this. It was Sarah who went with my father when necessary most times.The driver announced some seconds ago to me that we have arrived at our destination but I was too nervous to get down of the car.Gently, I opened the car door and stepped out of the car with my heart beating fast in my chest. Just as I came out of the car, the paparazzi began to flash the lights of their camera at me making me nervous. I began to make my way to the entrance and stepped on my dress and lost my balance but thankfully I was caught by someone."Take it easy Sophia, imagine I had not arrived on time. I wonder what would have happened to you?" It was Adrian who had caught me just before I fell."Thanks so much," I exhaled deeply as I stood back on my feet. "There you go," he said flashing me his pearly white teeth and I felt my heart skip. He looked effortlessly handsome.I wanted to run my finger through his hair. He took his hands tha

SOPHIA"Do you want a drink?" Adrian asked beside me."If water is the drink you will get for me then that's fine," I replied."Sure, wait a minute," he said before walking away to get me water."Sophia."I heard a familiar voice call my name and I turned around to see who it belonged to."Max," I called in surprise as I wasn't expecting to see him here."Wow! You look stunning," he said, walking closer to me."Thank you," I responded."What brings you here?" I asked him."My cousin is one of the photographers for this event and he forgot his phone. I brought it for him," he said, showing the phone of his cousin."Oh, I see. I thought you must have returned to London. Have you seen your cousin?" I asked him and he shook his head."I'm still looking for him," he replied, his eyes trailing me from head to toe."Goodness, you are such a sight to behold," he said and I blushed."Thanks for the compliment," I told him.I heard someone clear their throat from behind me and I know it could o
Married To The Heartless Billionaire 43. Mr Brian
ADRIAN CASTILLOI could tell Mr. Brian has been looking for opportunities to approach me as he kept looking over at where I was with Sophia. Some seconds after Sophia left my side, he hurried to meet me and I clenched my fist. I was very furious at him for what he did and the lies he told against my father-in-law.I treated Sophia and her family like trash because I felt they were deceitful people and looking for means to take my wealth.Ever since I got to find out the truth, I have been avoiding him because I was afraid I would do what I do not want to do."Adrian, what are you thinking?" He whispered through his teeth and I looked away from him, wanting to keep my cool with my fist clenched in my pocket."How could you keep her close knowing well she is working for her father. Did you forget what I told you? You cannot trust that woman," he said to me."Why? Why shouldn't I trust her? You must be forgetting she is my wife and I won't tolerate any slander against her," I said to hi
Married To The Heartless Billionaire 44. An old colleague
ADRIAN CASTILLOI could tell something was up with Sophia but I just couldn't tell what it was for the past two days now.Whenever I talk to her, she gives me a short reply and doesn't want to stay close to me.It has been bothering me. We were fine until that evening at the event. I have tried to think of wey possible things I might have done to have offended her but nothing came to my mind no matter how hard I tried.It was driving me insane. No woman has had me this worked up."Sir."I snapped out of my thought when my secretary Melinda called for my attention. I had completely zoned out as I recalled how Sophia had refused to look at me or even take the water I got for her when she choked on her food this morning.What have I done to offend her? I can't remember saying any hurtful words to her or treating her bad so what have I done wrong?" I just couldn't tell.I cleared my throat."What is it?" I asked her."The board wants to hear your opinion about the project idea by Mr. Sanc
Married To The Heartless Billionaire 45. The cause
ADRIAN CASTILLOThe meeting I expected to end as soon as possible ended up taking longer and I do not regret it.I do not know how Justin and I came to the point of talking about relationships but I ended up talking about Sophia.She has been disturbing my heart and I needed to get it off my chest."Just confess to her. Do not hold it in. I mean tell her how you feel," he advised."But I have done that," I told him, running my finger through my hair."You have? Do you realize there are ways you confess to a woman and she knows you want something more and this woman is your wife? Just tell her that you have fallen for her. Be completely honest with her and tell her what you want. Women love a straightforward man," Justin said and I sighed.Maybe I haven't done that. Sophia might have thought I just wanted to have a friendly relationship with her but I want something more than that."Maybe that's what I should do. Thanks so much, Justin. It felt nice telling someone about this. It has b
Married To The Heartless Billionaire 46. Confession
SOPHIA CASTILLO"What... What are you doing here?" I asked Adrian who had just let himself into my room without knocking. "Why didn't you come to me?" He said, surprising me with his actions."Come to you for what?" I asked him frantically."You heard what Mr. Brian said to me and instead of you to come to talk to me about it, you concluded and then you began to avoid me. Why didn't come to ask me?" He asked and my lips parted in shock.Was he expecting that I approached them and challenged them? Was he expecting that I make a scene by denying the allegations against my father? I wondered what he expected me to do.Right from the moment he saw me, he never hid his dislike and he made it hard to approach him so why would I go against him."What...what..." I stuttered, furrowing my brows in confusion."What you heard is not exactly what you think is it?" He said."Then what is it?" I asked him."It's simple, okay. I used to suspect your father because before I got married to you or got
Married To The Heartless Billionaire 47. A new beginning
SOPHIA CASTILLO"Yes."I heard him say.****It's been over a week since Adrian confessed his feelings to me and we have been trying to get to know one another.Unlike the other time when he asked us to be friends, now it's different.We still have our respective rooms but now, he tries to get me even involved in a lot in his life while I also talk to him too.We've gone out on dates, had fun, watched movies, and teased one another. It felt nice really warming up to him and so far he has been respectful to me.There were times we almost kissed but he pulled back at the last minute which made me wonder why but I never questioned him."Hi," Adrian said as soon as I let him into my room."Hi," I replied."What brings you to my room?" I asked him."I didn't tell you this because I just got told last night and I didn't want to wake up. I am going on a business trip for two weeks but I'd try my best to finish everything up and return to you," he informed me and I felt my stomach sink."You
