The Billionaire Takeover Chapter 117
Fear rose in her heart, she approached her daughter, partly hoping that this was all a prank, praying that nothing had resulted from that push. She didn't know what she would do if something happened to Carolene. And the oblivion she possessed regarding the father ofnthe child still strck its own blow at her heart. She wondered if Carolene was loved greatly by the man. Wondered if he cared so much about the baby. Margot was starting to feel like she had made a bad decision to come here. She walkd closer to Carolene who had fainted on her side, with a hand over her face. She took the hand away from her face to see her state. Carolene's eyes were closed. Margot's heartbeat rose to another. She gently pushed Carolene at her shoulders so that she could lay on her back. Margot was terrified, she checked around Carolene, searching for any sign of moisture in between her legs, and when she foubd none, she heaved a sigh of relief. However, why wasn't she awake? The fear that had subsi

Kraig walked back into the room. He thought the time he spent away from her was enough, now he wanted to talk to her, to know what was going through her mind, he wanted to know if there was any way possible that those men who had had their way with her could be arrested. When he entered, he saw that she was laying on her side, facing the other side. He thought nothing to this and so he just waljed to meet her. As he settled on the bed, he ran his hand over her curved hip. Suddenly she jerked up, bringing hwr knees to her chest as she moved to the head of the bed. There was fear in her eyes, seemingly like she had no clue who the man before her was. Her chest was heaving up and down, her breathing was ragged. What was left for her to do was ro start begging Kraig not to touch her. Kraig immediately put his hands up, "Wynn, it's just me, its me, there's no one else here but me". Wynn shook her head, though Kraig was there but all she was seeing were the four hefty men who overpowe

"What?!" Kyle turned to Jade, "you were the one who pushed her down?" "But you hsd been so worried about her, how could you have done such a thing?" "So, as long as Kraig is the one who says it the it has to be true, right?" She asked and they all shared a look. "What are you on about?" Kraig asked, "do you think you can turn this around the same way you are used to doing?" "Who said anything about turning anything around?" Jade shot at him, "I wasn't the one who pushed her, why woukd I even oush her?" "Of course it because you want her baby dead" Wesley said. "And what would I gain from a dead baby?" She asked Wesley. "Kraig's love, you were gonna use it to get closer to him". Kyle accused. "Oh my god!" Jade exclaimed, "do you even hesr yourselves, does that make any snese to you? If I wanted Kraig's love, wouldn't I go and kill Wynn or something? Or do we all not see how nonchalant kraig is about Carolene?" "Are yoy sure he isnt even the one who pushed her down because he k

Carolene had been taken to a ward, she was laid on the bed by the nurses and while the doctor finished with his diagnostics, Jade walked in. "Doctor, is she gonna be okay?" The doctor was caught off guard, his attention had solely been on the fike henwas foingbthriugh and hearing a woman suddenly walk into the room, he almost sent the file flying across the room. He shook hisnhead and adjusted his glasses from the short jumoscare that occured within him. He looked over the woman who just walked in, she had on a pair of sweatpants and a tank top, her hair was tied up in a ponytail, a rather messy ponytail and he couldn't deny that she was beautiful. It was like a scene from a fairytale for him. He quickly cleared his throat so as to deliver a clear answer, "she'll be fine. She had just been stressed". Jade nodded her head after letting out a sufh of relief, but before she could proceed to the bed, the doctor's voice flowed to her ears: "I know inwarned yhe family last time, she

Fabio, sat in the blood red booth of a diner with his friends. His fingers wrapped around the coffee he ordered. The distinct scent of chicken and curry permeated the diner, gurgling the stomachs of everyone oresent exceot the three detectives that were busy going around the details of the case they were working on. Christian's eyebrows were scrunched up, the crease in between displayed the frustration dancing in his heart and the hand that grabbed his hair was another proof of such frustration. His friends were no different, Daniel who was not used to holding up expressions other than anger and apathy, was suddenly placed in a position where he could not hide the confusion of the facts built up like a maze around him. He was not good with mazes. Fabio on the other hand seemed tonhave gotten a sligj understanding of what they were dealing with. The hot coffee that hebhad downed blessed his tongue with a taste that was too strong and as such, rather unpleasant. But just like Daniel,

Jade looked at Carolene recognizing the grimace on her face, giving her a bit of tingle in her stomach. She ignired the feeling and turned away from Carolene, needing the distbace between them to be longer. Carolene however was more foxused on watching jow jade suddenky seemed so out of it. It gave her a sort of pleasure knowing. She shook her head. "And what am i going to do that for?" Jade asked as she olayed wuth the flower petals on the sife of the room. She had seen when Wesley was makingbthe orders for these flowers but it shocked her becauee she didn't see the florist or thebdekivery guy come in. It was a bouquet of roses, red, beautiful roses that tugged on her heart making it seem wuite ugly. "You do know that the DeVilles hav a secret". Carolene said. "Secret?" She asked, but then she suddenly remebered that they werent in the room alone. She turned to the nurse who was still writing on her journal she had her eyes oinned but jade could see that her ears shifted. She

Wynn shifted on the bed as she saw jade standing there looking at her. She could see the confusion in jade's eyes as they ransacked her, as if searching for something. Jade was busy looking over Wynn, teying to find out what coykd be the reason why she was laying down on a hospital bed. But no matter how deeply she looked, all she saw were mere scratches and whatnots but nothing seemingly serious. She rested on one leg, and folded her hands as she saw that Wynn was not in any dire condition "what are you doing in a hospital?" "She fekt like taking a vacation" Leah answered as as she moved closer to the muted Wynn. Wynn only gave jade another glance before she turned to the side and stared ahead. This sudden action surprised jade, she turned to where Leah was standing close to Wynn as if scared to go any closer. "What happened to her?" Jade asked. Leah looked at Wynn and wondered if it was okay to telk jade, seeng that Wynn wasn't saying anything, not even giving them an acknow

Kraig stands beside the door to Wynn's ward. He refuses to go in thinkingbthat Wynn woukd surely be uncomfortable with him aroynd. He bekeiebd that if yhe doctor wasnt wesring his coat that signifies he was a doctir, then surely Wynn woukdnt even want him anywhere close to her. He peered into the room where he saw the doctor having a conversation wuth Wynn. Thw conversation didnt look to be serious and considering their previous words, he believed that the doctor was telling her of their recent agreement. That she would bee seeing a therapist. It was better that the doctor explained things to her himslef so that she wouldn't get the wrong idea and think that Kraig was calking her stupid or broken. In this phase of her life, she was a very unpredictable woman and Kraig wasn't about to ket himself take the wrong step and end up pissing her off. When he saw that the conversation ended and the doctor was walking out kf the room, he quickly shifted from the door, satuing a few feet away

Juan had definitely had enough of bickering with Jade. He didn't get the whole idea surrounding her relationship with Carolene; if she liked girls, then she did. What was the whole deal?He looked around the room for a while, tired of looking at the blonde, tired of seeing her face and hearing her voice. He had come here for the specific reason of trying to recall how his life used to be so uncomplicated with her. And well, he recalled because entering here, he realized that he was small and minuscule in her life and as a result, insignificant and uncomplicated.Juan waved his hand at her, "just forget everything and just come out if you will.""Are you going to keep it a secret?" Jade asked again."If I'm asked, I will tell, if I'm not, then surely won't go spreading shit about you to who doesn't even want to listen," he said. "I think your biggest issue should be getting yourself better and getting out of this hellhole." He looked around again as if he had reached a new height of di

Daniel felt so frustrated; he didn't know what to say or even how to say whatever would come to his head. He wasn't in any way pleased with what he had just heard. And although he had no say in matters like this, his disgust was apparent.Kraig took in a deep breath, "I know you guys obviously hate that you're listening to this, and you feel that I am stupid." He sighed, "maybe I am stupid. I knew she is a criminal, but I still indulged; I still blurred the lines and just delved into this, and I'm coming to you with excuses such as these."Christian shook his head, "you've never been one to hang onto what has already happened. The whole thing has played out already, and instead of biting our fingers and wishing things were different, we would just be wasting our time.""So what do you propose we do?" Jraug inquired, seeing as one of them was not going to stay on the fact that he had been foolish."Well, I think you taking the initiative, regardless of your feelings for her, to inform

Jade paced around the room. Trying to reason with someone as simple-minded as Juan was proved to be anything but simple. She wanted to explain to him that if he did not change his statement or even pretend to be on her side at this moment, he was risking his head.She didn't know the abilities of Carolene, but surely, silencing a man so small, a man so insignificant would not be such a hard thing to do.However, she couldn't. There was a front that she was putting up for the world; Carolene was appearing as a weakling, a stupid blonde who did nothing but get pregnant for the most important man in the business world.But she was more than that. What she was was actually complicated, something that Jade couldn't guess but rather had an idea for. She was more complex than any of those men or women that would say a thing or two about her.And even this man in front of her had no idea who Carolene was, and that was why his request did not drift from a threesome.What the heck was even wron

Daniel took two steps forward. Though such a small number of steps should not possess the ability to completely obliterate the distance between them, but his strides were the guilty party.With just two steps, he now stood right beside Fabio as he peered into the evidence bag to scrutinize clearly the bullet kept within.Fabio was made cognizant of the imaginary distance between them. He felt Daniel's breath on his neck; he could smell the overpowering cologne, the aura of his being. Everything was too much for him; he had no choice but to take a step away from him.Daniel raised an eyebrow, "what is it?"Fabio rubbed his neck, trying to smoothen out the goosebumps that showed up on his skin, trying to rub away his presence away from him."If you want to look at it, here," he tossed it to him and then turned towards the funeral home where Wesley and his mother were still hiding.As Fabio approached, he saw that an older woman was placed on a stretcher and was being pushed towards the

Tabitha's heart raced violently in her chest. The anger that suddenly arose within her obviously had no recipient. If it was any other day, she could probably rant to Carolene, but the woman in front of her, sitting with a wrinkle between her eyebrows and a tired expression mixed with her livid one, surely wasn't in the mood to hear her bullshit.She cleared her throat and tried to work her way around her emotions, to be careful not to let Carolene's rage come upon her and to not let hers find comfort in Carolene.Tabitha bit her bottom lip until she drew blood. It was the best way to keep her lips shut. Her anger was nowhere near what Carolene would do to her if she spoke out of turn."Juan?"Carolene nodded her head, her fingers twirled in her hair as an exasperated sigh left her mouth."I have more reasons to kill him now." Their eyes met, "you were the one who wanted to keep him alive, why?"Tabitha immediately pulled her eyes away, bringing them beneath, showing the authority Car

Kraig took a step forward, the distance between him and Patricia only the space of two fingers. "I don't know why you are being like this," he said coldly and in utter disrespect. "I am the heir, I am the son of your nephew, and I apologize for the patriarchy, but I wasn't the one who made the rules.""And in addition, we have our own company we manage. Uncle had been quite understanding of how unfavorable the system is, and he gave us a company," Wesley said.Kraig raised an eyebrow in surprise, "so you have your own company, then what is your problem with me?""You own everything; you men took everything," she cried out. "I don't like this, I don't want this."Tabitha stood on the side, watching everything. She noted that surely it was because of the woman's age that was making her cranky and not just that; she might have some sort of disorder.When they first met, the woman had never really liked her, nor even tried to hide her disgust and hate. But as she thought, it could be beca

Leah woke up in the small room she had been waking up in for over a week. She could recall how she had gotten out of prison, but no matter how many times she thought about it, it just didn't make sense to her.The woman arrived at the cell with the keys that would free her, and then the two of them just walked out. There were people there, officers everywhere like a pandemic, but she just waltzed through the crowd like it was nothing, like they were all beneath her.And from what Leah had seen with her eyes. They were really beneath her.She jumped off the bed and checked the time on the small black alarm clock resting on the nightstand. It was over three in the afternoon. She was lucky.She had been given her own space where she would just exist. She had no idea what her role here was, but she assumed that it had something to do with the baby in her womb because they were always giving her food for two people and as such, she had added a lot of weight.She was still tall and slim and

Different exotic cars were parked in front of the simple funeral home. There were people coming from all directions with one aim in their hearts: to get to the funeral of Petrus DeVille. Although it was considered a tragic event, there were still reporters lined up across the place just so they could get an overview of what was going on in that small, cheap-looking funeral home.Kraig stood by the door as he welcomed people; some he recognized, but many were a mystery to him. He had a frown on his face, which should match the ceremony, but his frown had not generated from sadness but rather frustration.The last place he wanted to be caught in was standing by the door and addressing the people coming in and out. His grandfather did not deserve it.The noise reporters kept making and the noise from the funeral home joined together, giving Kraig a severe headache. He hated being there; he hated that he had to be the one welcoming people.His eyes went down to his black suit and ran his

She paced around the room, unabke to settle, unable to sit still and carefully align her thoughts abd how she was feeling.
