THE POOR ORPHAN WHO BECAME A BILLIONAIRE The Call and The Date
Emily dialed Sam’s number, the beeping sound from the phone made her very nervous; after it had rang for about ten seconds, she ended the call out of fear and tension. She had no idea why she was feeling this way towards a man she was older than; like a teenage girl who just got teased by one rich high school boy. ‘What do you want to do, Emily!’ She said to herself in her mind, as she dropped the cellphone on the bed and paced her small bedroom. Her heart was pounding as if it wanted to come out from her chest; Emily hated the fact that she felt this way, just because she wanted to accept the man she had grown feelings for. Was it because he was her boss? Or because he was the son of the man she so much respected? She had no idea. As Emily paced her room back and forth, brooding about the step she just took, the phone rang suddenly; startling her and making her heart thud heavily. She quickly rushed to the bed and stared at who the caller was; as she had thought, it was Sam.

Sam heard her loud and clear, but still he wanted reassurance; he wanted to hear her say it again. “What do you mean?” Sam pretended, leaning closer to the table separating both of them. Emily heaved a sigh, she didn’t want to keep repeating the words as it made her a little embarrassed. “I want us to go on with the feelings we have for each other, Sam, and I accept the request you gave me that day,” Emily made her response more clearer, in order not to repeat herself again. But she didn’t look at Sam’s eyes when she finished talking, she was too shy to do so. Instead she placed her gaze on the small vase beautifying their table. Sam could literally feel the joy in his heart, he couldn’t explain the feeling in words but he could tell that he had never felt such a way in a long time. It was different from when Amelia accepted his offer, this looked a lot like a big deal, but he wouldn’t make it seem so. For the first time since he started talking to Emily, Sam was lost for word
THE POOR ORPHAN WHO BECAME A BILLIONAIRE The Kiss, The Plan and the Reveal
Emily was caught off guard, but she didn’t pull away from the kiss, his lips were soft as velvet and warm, soothing in the chilling atmosphere of the beach. For a second, her eyes stood wide open in surprise then slowly reverted into their normal state. Emily never assumed that Sam would kiss her, after what happened during their last date. After a few seconds of silence and just the sound of their tongues hitting each other, alongside the splashes of the ocean on the shore; Sam broke the kiss and stared right into Emily’s eyes. “I want you to be mine only, Em, I really mean this,” Sam whispered, holding her face in his broad hands. “I’m yours, Sam. Yours alone,” Emily whispered back the words. She just kissed her former boss’s son at night at an empty beach. It actually felt like a dream as she held the gaze of the most handsome man she had ever seen. A man she had just met some weeks back, wasn’t this too fast? Emily asked herself, but there was no reply coming from her brain,
THE POOR ORPHAN WHO BECAME A BILLIONAIRE The Bond between a father and his Daughter
“I just have three months to live, and I’ve been trying to tell you but,” Ethan paused, took a deep breath and continued. “But, you’ve been so engrossed with this inheritance of a thing,” he concluded, staring at the shock on his wife and daughter’s faces. Elena wasn’t very moved but Ariana was perplexed and her heart was starting to pound. “How can you keep that away from us, dad; what the hell?” The concern and worry on Ariana’s face showed that she still loved and wanted her dad so much. “I didn’t keep it from you, at first; I didn’t want any of you to panic so I delayed the news, but when I decided to share it, you just wouldn’t let me, but now you know. I have lung cancer and would probably die in the next three months as estimated by my doctor,” Ethan clarified, focusing his gaze on his daughter alone. “That doesn’t change the fact that I won’t still continue the filing of our divorce, you’ve shown me that you do not love me anymore Ethan. By refusing to do what I told you.
THE POOR ORPHAN WHO BECAME A BILLIONAIRE The Pregnant Ex
“One of the guards signified to Amelia, suggesting that she whined down her window. Amelia felt a little embarrassed as she did, Sam really employed these guys and they were working in a villa such as this, does this mean Sam owned the place? It was too early to jump to conclusions. When the first guard saw her, he almost laughed but he remained composed and spoke instead, but still he couldn’t wipe off the little smile that had crept to his face the instant he saw Amelia. “Is the boss expecting you?” “Who is the boss?” Amelia raised her brow, this was her chance to confirm some things. The guard looked at her in genuine confusion; had Amelia come all the way to the villa without knowing who owned the property or she still believed it wasn’t Sam’s? “Who do you want to see, ma’am?” The guard asked again, his face now entirely covered with a serious expression. “Now you’re asking the right question. I’m here to see Samuel Jonathan,” Amelia smiled, tapping a finger on the steerin

Sam scoffed, looking at Amelia with a joking smile. The shock on Charity’s face was so obvious, how could that even be? After all these while and things that had happened? “I ain’t here for jokes, Amelia, I’ve got an appointment soon,-“ “Oh! You really think I’d come all the way down here just to joke with you? Aren’t you surprised how I even got to know this place?” Amelia interrupted him, standing from where she sat. The joking smile slowly disappeared from Sam’s face, Amelia wasn’t joking around, he could see it in her eyes; but her words seemed like she had come to tease him. There was no way she could be carrying his child.“Ben gave me this address, I’ve got a lot of questions but, I just want to let you know that I’m carrying your child.” Amelia continued with a little frown on her face. Laura heaved a sigh, Amelia never listens; she had told her that the talking would be handled by her, but Amelia had forgotten all about that. “How’s that even possible, it’s been over a

Sam removed his hands from his face when he heard Emily and Amelia calling each other names? What was going on? “Why’s mum…what’s going on here?” Emily walked slowly down to where Amelia and her mother stood. Her face filled with confusion and worry, the red head was looking so remarkably beautiful; she was putting on a wonderful red cape dress, making her look like the queen of England. “I should be asking you the same question; what are you doing here?” Amelia responded, gazing at Emily in surprise; it shouldn’t be what she was thinking. “Now, I’m getting really confused,” Laura heaved a sigh, rolling her eyes. She sat down on the sofa as she was strained from standing for too long. Emily paused for a second and shifted her gaze to Sam, who looked stunned at all what was going on; she had come to his house for the preparations of the promises he had made to her, who would have thought she would meet her sister here. “Sam is my boyfriend, Amelia.” Emily returned her gaze to Ame
THE POOR ORPHAN WHO BECAME A BILLIONAIRE Sam’s Past.
No one responded to Laura, they were all engrossed in the present situation, especially Emily. She didn’t know why Laura and Emily were really at Sam’s house. If Amelia was his ex, what was she doing here exactly? But that wasn’t the most important thing at the moment. “Sam, is there something you’re not telling me?” Emily moved closer to him, looking straight into his blue eyes. She didn’t really blame Sam, they just started dating and she hadn’t known him long; so if he had secrets, it was somewhat normal; but this kind was different. Sam was the son of Ethan Cole, the richest man in Los Angeles, how was he wretched in school? Something was wrong about Amelia’s story, but the fact that Sam wasn’t objecting means it might be true. Sam heaved a sigh, he couldn’t waive Emily off, he loved her too much to do that; he actually knew he was going to tell her this story one day, but he never imagined he would be telling Emily and Amelia together. “There’s something I haven’t told you

An unusual End
Ariana stood outside the hospital, ever since she called Derek, she hadn’t gone back inside. She wanted to be the first one o recieve him, she had to try and stop Derek from doing any harm to Sam, she knew he was going to blame him for everything that happened to both Elena and Ethan. Even though a part of it was his fault too. An ambulance arrived the hospital, but it sound didn’t jolt Ariana from her thoughts, she kept on going forward and backwards on the open area in front of the big hospital. “Stay with us, sir…stay with us.” The words were loud and demanding and it got Ariana to stare at the person who was saying it. Just as she looked behind her shoulders, her eyes fell on the man who was lying on the moving stretcher, it was Derek! Ariana didn’t know when she started running towards the stretcher, tears streaming down her eyes at will. What the hell happened? What’s going on in her miserable life? These unanswered questions hit her hard, it was as if her heart would rip o

And there was Darkness
Immediately Ariana reported the news to Derek, she heard a beeping sound that indicated that the receiver had hung up. She fell down on her knees outside the hospital and continued crying her eyes out, somewhere deep inside her heart; she prayed that the news hadn’t affected Derek in anyway.***The cell phone dropped from Derek’s hand and landed on the marble floor of his sitting room, the glass of whiskey he was holding in his left also fell off his grip and shattered on the floor, causing Amelia to rush out of the kitchen that was close to the sitting room. His eyes were wide and filled with uttermost despair, he couldn’t describe what he was feeling at the moment, he heard what Ariana said clearly, he had an hunch something was wrong that was why he picked up the call immediately. Ever since he joined his mother to get the inheritance off Sam, Ariana hadn’t called him in awhile. Amelia hurried out of the kitchen, rushing into the room; she had a shocking expression on her face

The Share of Guilt
Sam felt a double blow to his heart, in the midst of all these tribulations, Derek was coming for him. It wasn’t as if he didn’t expect it, he was somehow responsible for thier mother’s death, and Derek who has forever hated him would always believe he was the cause of Elena’s death. “Although I’ve spoken to him about not doing something stupid, but I’m not really sure he’s going to heed to my advise, which is the reason I’m telling you.” Clinton continued, staring at Sam closely. It was now somewhat his responsibility to take care of Sam, now that Ethan was in the brink of death, but he kept praying in his heart for God to give Ethan few more months. “What do you mean Derek is coming for him?” Ariana who had been listening for awhile chipped in, sniffing and staring suprisedly at Clinton. “You and Ethan are the only people who would believe the story about Elena’s death, Derek will not; and I’m sure you know why,” Clinton responded. Sam was still silent and confused as fear stre

Sam pulled up from the embrace and stared at his fiancée with so much affection in his blue eyes. Emily’s eyes widened and her smile brightened, she was pregnant for Sam, just when her step sister aborted his child. It seemed the child reincarnated or something. “Are…are you for real?” The surprise and joy was so obvious on her expression, she hadn’t felt this much joy before, despite the fact that she just escaped death narrowly. How situations can change in a split of a second. “The doctor just told me now, the baby’s safe and I’m mostly glad that you’re also,” Sam revealed, he was almost starting to tear up now. “Oh gosh, I’m so so happy… can’t believe this is happening, Sam.” Emily’s voice sounded like she’d burst into tears soon. “It is happening, Em, you’re going to be a mum and I would be a dad, even though we just experienced the most traumatic experience of our lives, this news has brought so much joy, enough to overwhelm our sadness,” Sam narrated, staring at Emily wit

“Talk to me, Ariana, what is it you want to tell me?” Ethan climbed off the bed and rushed towards Ariana, holding her hands. He was surprised at her sudden burst in tears, what could have gone wrong, his heart started to pound abnormally in an instant. “I don’t know how to say this, but, promise me that you wouldn’t be affected by this news,” Ariana cried, even though she had mentioned the first two words, Ethan hadn’t grabbed what she wanted to talk about. He was still totally in the dark. Ethan looked at her confusedly, she was making him more scared and his heartbeat continued to move up drastically. He couldn’t promise such a thing, because he had no idea what she wanted to reveal to him and with all of this fuss, it was certain that it was something negative. “What’s going on, Ariana? You’re making me anxious already, just spill the beans,” Ethan's patience wouldn’t last long, has he held Ariana's hands, he was staring into her teary eyes and it was breaking his heart. But

Difficult Words
Sam’s mouth fell open, but no words came out. He was totally unaware of that, especially in this kind of situation, who would have thought that Emily was pregnant. “The baby’s fine, even after the drugs and stress she went through, it’s actually a miracle somewhat,” the doctor continued, smiling broadly, oblivious to what was going on in Sam’s head. Sam still remained shocked and mute, Emily was pregnant for him, God was really working miracles, just when Amelia had gone and aborted his child, then came another one. “Mr. Sam…. Mr. Samuel, are you okay?” The doctor was suddenly concerned about Sam's silence and shocked expression. Sam nodded positively without uttering any words, his eyes still popped wide. “Why is it so surprising to hear that your wife’s pregnant, actually I thought you’d tell me you know already,” the doctor was starting to get confused with Sam’s reactions and response to the news he just delivered. “You… oh God, you wouldn’t understand, doc. But I’m so glad

The Beginning of the End
Jonathan who was already scared because of his present predicament, and wasn’t concentrating on the conversation was overwhelmingly shocked by what he just heard Clinton say. Dead? How’s that even possible? He thought, Jonathan couldn’t believe it, just as he couldn’t believe he’d be going to jail soon. Derek shook his head, staring at Clinton with his eyes wide open and his heart beating so hard like it’d pop out of his chest. It seems what he just heard was a fluke or something, there was no way that was true. “Wha…what…what did you just say?” He stuttered, trying as much as possible to calm his nerves and not believe what he heard earlier. Clinton sighed, this was the real reason why he came to pass the message himself, he was so sure that Derek would take the hit harder than Ariana because Derek loved his mother more than Ethan, it was as if the two children picked one parent each. However, they still loved both thier parents. If it had been Sam giving this report, it’d even

Walls Have Ears.
(Back in Ethan’s Mansion) Ariana went into the guest bathroom to wash up her face, she had cried her eyes out and Ethan would definitely know no matter how hard she tried to hide it. She could reduce the swollen part of her face but the redness in her eye balls wouldn’t be easily removed. She stared at the mirror, looking at her reflection for a few seconds; but all she was seeing was the flashes of her mother’s face. Still, she couldn’t believe that Elena was dead, it was the most difficult reality to accept and it shattered her heart to molecules even though she didn’t have a perfect relationship with her mother. Now, it was evident and obvious that she’d become an orphan very soon, losing both her parents at such a tender age. The fact that none of them was going to hold her hand and lead her through the aisle and bless her marriage when she decided to have one was heartbreaking. Ariana had no idea how she wanted to relay the message to her father without him getting a heart a

If Walls Could Talk
Derek stepped out of the vehicle slowly, gazing at Clinton with so much suspicion; no one except he and Jonathan knew about the location that Elena was, then how the hell did Clinton know about Elena? That was Derek’s first surprise, but that wasn’t all, now that it seemed like something was going on in the location where Elena was, he also had information about that. It was obviously concluded that Elena had been discovered, Derek thought, closing the door to his vehicle carefully. “Let’s go in, Derek. What I’m about to tell you is very important,” Clinton didn’t wait for approval, he started walking towards Derek’s mansion as soon as he finished talking. Derek glanced at Jonathan and then at Clinton again who was already close to the front door of his house. What exactly was going on? Derek was utterly confused and he was being killed with uttermost suspense. “We need to hear him out, Derek. Clinton doesn’t joke around, but you and I know that for Clinton to have information ab
