THE POOR ORPHAN WHO BECAME A BILLIONAIRE The True Version
“You should,” Derek whispered, and walked out of Sam’s face. There was nothing more he could say or do here, the surprises were enough for a night; he needed to go on and start making plans on how to get Ethan’s corporation. Elena followed immediately behind him, frowning at Sam as she walked past him, she was very angry that even with Derek, she couldn’t cause Ethan to do something about the situation. Ethan pulled himself out of the fight a long time ago, giving Sam full ownership of his company was a smart move, but it isn’t really smart because it puts all of the danger on Sam. The door slammed closed, and the room still remained silent, just the tick of the big golden wall clock that stood on one upside of the wall. Ariana was the one who broke the silence. “I honestly still can’t believe you and Derek had met,” she stared at Sam, her surprise hadn’t faded. “I first met him in Borris’s restaurant, when I was nothing obviously; and that day I was going to propose to Amelia,

“Isn’t this too early, what the fuck?” Emily felt disheartened, Amelia was her sister but this was becoming so irritating. Sam sighed, took another sip at the coffee and started walking towards the lobby. “Are you gonna go see her like that?” Emily asked, following behind him hastily. “There’s no time going up to the room again, the fact that Amelia is here means I own that child,” Sam dried his body with a big white sparkling towel as he walked. His words made Emily speechless, she just followed him quietly with the coffee mug in hand. ….Amelia was surprised to see Sam entering the lobby with just a pair of moist shorts and a white towel around his neck, his physique was one of the things that made her fall in love with him and seeing it now, she shivered, but recomposed herself. When she saw Emily coming in behind him, the feeling disappeared entirely and was replaced by jealousy. She was wearing a white robe, which meant that they had enjoyed themselves the previous night d

“How’s that even possible,” Amelia laughed, but it didn’t get to her eyes; it was a kinda mocking laughter. Emily was a little surprised, but she knew Derek; she just didn’t know his name, she had seen him once in Ethan’s corporation, it was all going around a circle. “Derek is the son of the former owner of Ethan’s corporation, I’m sure you know who Ethan Cole is; Derek Cole is his son and I’m his son as well, but from different mothers,” Sam furtherly revealed, a small grin curling up his lips. He wasn’t supposed to be revealing this to Amelia, but he had to because of the situation. Amelia was utterly dumbfounded, she never even thought of it; Derek had his own company so she didn’t think he’d be the son of Ethan Cole. In fact she was too engrossed with his wealth that she didn’t even have time to think who his father might be. It wasn’t just Derek being Ethan Cole’s son that made her starstruck, Sam was always the son of one of the most influential and wealthy people in Los A
THE POOR ORPHAN WHO BECAME A BILLIONAIRE The Plan and The Conversations
Derek eyes stood wide, he was expecting something violent but not to that extent, wasn’t Elena going too far? “It’s the only way, Derek. Sam wouldn’t give up that property as far as he’s alive, especially now that the two of you have an history,” Elena persisted, fixing her gaze on her son. She was skeptical, but she just had to say it; this was the only way out at the moment and they had to act quickly before Ethan dies. “Hurting Sam might put the both of us behind bars for the rest of our lives, mum. I don’t want to take that risk,” Derek said, staring at the whiskey inside his glass cup. Now that they just had a fierce encounter with each other, any slight violent incident that happened to any of them; they would both be the first prime suspects, especially him because he was the one trying to get something from Sam at the moment. Elena idea was good and seems like the only way, but it wasn’t very ideal at the moment. “Not if we make it look like an accident,” Elena probed, g
THE POOR ORPHAN WHO BECAME A BILLIONAIRE An Unrequired Plea
Derek was flabbergasted, what was going on? Amelia and Sam at his house at the same time? And who was the woman clinging on to Sam? Derek held the glass cup filled with whiskey with both of his hands, so it wouldn’t fall out of shock. “It seems you do not like your job anymore,” Derek's gaze went to the butler who came to announce their presence. He had told Amelia never to come to his house unless she removed the child inside of her; and still his butler allowed her in. “I….I…..didn’t,” “Hear us out, Derek; aren’t you surprised it’s not only me this time, fucking take a chill!” Amelia was getting annoyed with his behavior, even if he wanted to discard her, at least he should hear their side of the story. The butler was kinda glad that Amelia interrupted him, he actually had no answer to that question, but the fact that his job was still on the line hadn’t been resolved; Amelia just bought him some time. He quickly left their midst before Derek could ask him another question he
THE POOR ORPHAN WHO BECAME A BILLIONAIRE An Unexpected Surprise
“I cannot accept a woman who Carries the child of an enemy, the only way out of this, I’ve told Amelia before; get rid of that thing and I’ll gladly welcome you back into my life,” Derek released his verdict which wasn’t different from the one he had given Amelia some days back. He made it seem like he was about to agree to their proposal and shattered their hopes at the last minute. Sam sighed, he wasn’t the type to probe, not even in this kind of setting, so he remained mute. “I never knew you were this heartless, Derek. Is all these not enough to show that I love and want to be with you?” One could hear the frustration and anger in Amelia’s voice. She felt like pushing Derek down that veranda and watching him shatter his skull on the concrete ground.“It is not, Amelia, what is enough to me is what I’ve told you to do, now if you’d leave my house. I’d be fucking glad,” Derek wasn’t even moved a bit, despite Amelia’s sober state. Sam moved backwards and went and stood next to Emi
THE POOR ORPHAN WHO BECAME A BILLIONAIRE The Plot Thickens.
“Are you out of your mind, Amelia? This isn’t what we planned.” Sam was the first to retaliate, with a shocking frown on his face. He couldn’t believe that Amelia would be influenced so easily by Derek’s offer, what could he have said that made her change her mind so quickly, right on the spot. Emily was also shocked by Amelia’s sudden move, did she plan this all along? Cause it was looking like something that was perfectly preplanned. “I’m in my right senses, Sam. Can’t you see I’m in a dilemma? What would you do in my position Emily?” Amelia fired the words to Sam but glanced at Emily at the conclusion of her statement. She was looking sober like she was going to burst out in tears any moment. Emily wasn’t expecting the question, but she thought about it; Amelia was either obsessed with the wealth of these men that she chose one of them or she loved Derek genuinely and would do anything to be with him. But she really can’t say if she would kill a child for Sam, she had to be i
THE POOR ORPHAN WHO BECAME A BILLIONAIRE Heartbreak News
Going to the authorities right away wouldn’t be a great idea. Maybe talking to Amelia’s mother would do the trick, Sam thought, luckily; Emily was Amelia’s sister so Sam didn’t have to start searching for Amelia’s house without asking her. Sam never knew Amelia’s house or family throughout all the time they dated, that answered why Laura didn’t even recognize him when she came to his Villa together with Amelia. Sam knew nothing about Amelia’s family, and he didn’t try to find out since they were still dating. He had plans to ask Amelia about her parents if he had gotten the opportunity to propose to her and she agreed, but that wasn’t destined to happen. Sam didn’t waste time, he was supposed to come see Laura the same day, but he had to get to the office and sort out some paperwork and instate the new secretary who just started working at Ethan’s corporation as his secretary. All that took most of his time and he couldn’t think properly, it was after this that he had the time to

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

Emergency
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

The Pinnacle of Pain
“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
