The Billionaire’s Unwanted Bride CHAPTER 54
( Cassie's POV )The hall is silent, everyone is watching the host on the podium, waiting patiently for the announcement of the top 10 best businessman and newest billionaires in New York. I can see the fear and anxiety in Jordan's face, even though he is trying to hide it. I can see through him.I can see Julian's table from where we sit. I can also see his father watching us at intervals, there is a pretty lady beside him.When Jordan and I entered with my arms intertwined with his, the flashes from the media's camera were enough to intensify my anxiety. Jordan told me not to answer any questions and I was obeying him.When we entered the big hall, I wished for the ground to open so I could go in. My breathing seized because of the large crowd. I was panicking.I have never been in a place where there are so many people like this.Jordan noticed it because my hand was stiff, he stared at me and gave me a cute smile. That did the trick, I puffed out air that I didn't know I was hold

( Jordan's POV )Saying I am happy sounds like an understatement. I am over the moon and I feel fulfilled.Even though I know my father will think I won because of him and Julian, I am going to prove them wrong. Their help didn't take me anywhere.Justine prevailed. I won and Damien lost.After presenting my speech and appreciation to the people who stood by me, I was given another standing ovation. I didn't mention my father and I did that on purpose. I only mentioned the one absent person but I was sure she was watching my success from home.My mother! She stood by me, she sacrificed a lot for me to be where I am today.Even without her legs, she supported me and gave me strength.

( Tessa's POV )I am a strong woman and I won't let anything break me down, not even Jordan. After crying for a while at home, I decided to come to see things for myself and here I am.I reapplied my makeup and asked the driver to drive me to the party with Zoe who was looking at me with pity. I don't need any pity. Jordan has just trampled upon me and I am going to deal with the idiot, I no longer care if he is the man I love or not.I am no longer here in the event because of Jordan, he is no longer the reason why I am here. I am here to satisfy my curiosity, I want to see the girl Jordan brought to the party in place of me. I want to see the person that took my place. I want to see how worthy she is. I want to see who she is and what she is.That will determine my next line of action.I ask the driver to drop me off at a little distance away from the entrance and I take bold steps out of the car when it comes to a stop. I didn't wait for Zoe before walking to the back of the hall.

Cassie's POVAfter Jordan left, I sit quietly taking into consideration the warnings he pointed out to me on our way here. I don't want to get on his bad side and get him angry on a day like this. I want to stay put and wait till he is back, hoping the meeting with his father won't turn out bad.There are few people left in the hall now and everyone seems to be chatting with other people. The people on the dance floor have stopped dancing and the music is off. I can see some people going to the buffet to get their food.My stomach rumbles at the instant and I shut my eyes to ward my hunger off. I can't eat without Jordan here. I feel unprotected without him here and I feel everyone seems to be looking at me, those I know and even those that I don't know.They must be wondering what the billionaire's bride is doing all alone. I am hoping Jordan will be back soon because of how awkward I am sitting and looking around. Despite my hunger, I still stay put. I am willing to wait for him to
The Billionaire’s Unwanted Bride CHAPTER 58
( Tessa's POV )My replacement is a beauty to behold. But she is nowhere as beautiful as I am, I know this. I can see the way she was staring at me with admiration when I first appeared in front of her before she replaced the admiration with a nonchalant attitude.She is nowhere as sophisticated as I am and that relieved me a bit. I thought Jordan will go for someone better than me in all ramifications, someone more sophisticated and classic but here she is, nobody.I can see how she is finding it difficult to ignore me like I don't exist, I can see how she is trying to sip her wine like the elite that she isn't, I can see how difficult she is trying to play along and I am glad that my presence is making her uncomfortable.It is quite obvious that she knows who I am already and what I am to Jordan. Whether Jordan gets married to her will not change anything between us. Jordan will still be mine. I am sure he is getting married to her for a reason. I am trying hard to let go of the fa

( Damien's POV )Never in my wildest dream have I ever imagined life to be this sorrowful for me and depressing. I feel like a real loser for once in a while. I have always rejoiced in the delight of being a winner in virtually everything I do, but I take rejection and failure the hard way. I beat myself up for whatever failure I get.
