The Billionaire's lucky break Chapter Sixty Four
Marco and Raina sat side by side in the car, the soft hum of the engine filling the air around them. It was still so early in the morning, and the sun was just beginning to rise, casting a soft orange glow over the horizon. Marco was behind the wheel, his hands gripping the steering wheel tightly as he navigated the quiet streets of his suburban neighborhood.Raina, meanwhile, sat next to him, staring out of the window as they passed by rows of neatly trimmed lawns and well-kept gardens. She was lost in thought, her mind wandering as she contemplated the day ahead. Marco turned on the radio and started flipping through stations. "What do you want to listen to?" he asked Raina."I don't know, surprise me," Raina replied with a smile.Marco grinned and turned up the volume as a popular pop song came on. Raina laughed and started singing along. They were both excited as they sang along to the song.During the drive, the ride became silent and the excitement died down as both individua

Marco rolled his eyes as he took a deep breath. He just wanted to get some air, he should have remained in class.Of all people to encounter in the hallway, it had to be them. He was in no mood for their nonsense and a look at Raina's face told him she wasn't in their mood too.Chris and Dahlia stood there, leaning against a locker as they stared at Marco and Raina with a look of disdain.Marco could feel the tension wafting from Chris and it made him want to laugh. He had forgotten all about their little scheme to break them up.It didn't work and now they are pissed at them."You have some nerve, Marco," Chris said lowly.Marco kept quiet, he had just gotten his cool back, and he couldn't lose it now."What's that supposed to mean?" Raina fired at him."Are you guys dating now?" Chris asked as he pointed between the two of them.Dahlia glared at them with hatred in her eyes and Marco sighed.He had no energy for their troubles and he genuinely wanted to get away from there."Let's g

"I am not sure about that, sir," Marco answered honestly.He wasn't sure if he would be stepping out of the class or just paying attention to this boring lesson."Don't play smart with me, Marco." the teacher warned.Raina squeezed his hand and Marco knew to cut it out. He didn't want to offend his favorite nerd.He met Raina's eyes and mouthed, "Are you okay?" She nodded and averted her gaze but she still had that sad smile on her lips.He brought out his phone and texted her, "Want to skip?"Marco heard her phone vibrate and Raina picked it up, she looked at it and Marco relaxed when the smile on her lips became genuine.His phone vibrated and he looked at it, "What do you have in mind?" her text read."We could drive around till your mood brightens. I miss seeing your smile." he texted her.Marco smiled brighter when he saw Raina blush."I am in," she said.Marco cleared his throat lightly, directing the teacher's attention to him."What is it, Marco?" the teacher asked.He didn't

The silence was much more comfortable now, Raina wasn't brooding and Marco was happy that the drive worked out in the end.As they pulled up outside Raina’s house, Marco put the car in park and turned to face her. There was a moment of silence as they looked at each other, the air thick with unspoken words.Finally, Raina broke the silence. “Thanks for the ride,” she said, her voice soft.Marco smiled, his eyes warm and affectionate. “Anytime,” he replied. “It was a great night.”Raina nodded, but Marco could sense that something was bothering her. He reached out and took her hand, giving it a gentle squeeze.“Is everything okay?” he asked, concern etched in his features.Raina hesitated for a moment, biting her lip nervously. Marco waited patiently, giving her the space she needed to speak her mind.“I know it’s late,” Raina began, her voice hesitant. “But would you like to come inside? We could watch a movie or something.”Marco felt his heart skip a beat at the invitation. He had be

Marco woke up abruptly to the sound of his alarm blaring. He groggily reached over and silenced it, trying to shake off the lingering remnants of sleep.He rubbed the sleep from his eyes and sat up, stretching his arms above his head. He knew he had to get ready for school, but the thought of facing another day filled him with a sense of dread.With a sigh, he swung his legs over the side of the bed and pushed himself up. He shuffled over to his wardrobe, rubbing his eyes again to clear his vision.He scanned the rows of clothes, trying to decide what to wear. He wanted to look presentable but not too flashy, wanting to blend in rather than stand out.He settled on a pair of jeans and a simple white t-shirt, hoping that he would be able to pull it off.He could already feel the exhaustion from the previous day's activities weighing heavily on him.He sighed as he ran a hand through his hair, he headed to the bathroom to get ready.He turned on the shower, adjusting the temperature unti

Marco sat in his history class, trying to focus on the lesson, but his mind kept drifting far away.Marco had to admit that these days he was paying less attention to education and more to women's problems.He wanted to solve it and move on with his life.He glanced at the clock on the wall, willing the minutes to pass by faster. He couldn't stand another minute of this torture.Finally, the bell rang, signaling the end of the class. Marco grabbed a hall pass and made his way to a secluded area before the next class starts.He brought out his phone and dialed the number of the event planner he had spoken to a few days ago.It rang till she picked at the third ring."Hello?" a tired voice answered on the other end."Hi, it's Marco," he said, his voice urgent. "I need you to come to the school right away.""What's going on?" the event planner asked, sensing the urgency in Marco's tone."I told you it was today, prom is next week and I need her to have everything she needs so we could go

"It's time to get back to class." the principal dismissed them with a shake of his head."Thank you, sir." Marco thanked the man.A silent nod showed that the man accepted his appreciation. Marco knew he wasn't a man of so many words.Marco had no idea how the event planner pulled it off by asking their principal but she did a nice job.It was time to focus on why they came to school in the first place. To learn, now he can focus and get something little in his head.Marco almost laughed out loud when he thought about what he was going to write for his finals.This year had been a roller coaster and he wasn't paying attention to anything the teachers were talking about.He turned his attention and noticed that they were still standing in the hallway and people were gathered and watching them.Marco could feel the weight of everyone's eyes on them, but he didn't care. All that mattered was Raina. He could feel her shaking in his arms, and he tightened his hold on her."Are you okay?" he

"When I tell you that you are crazy, believe me," Lily mumbled.She rested her head against the headrest and covered her eyes with a sleeping mask.Marco grunted and did the same, it was going to be a long flight.Marco and Lily's flight touched down at the bustling airport, and they both let out a sigh of relief. Stepping off the plane, Marco felt the warm breeze of London enveloping them, and excitement filled his nostrils.Lily, with a slight yawn, turned to Marco and said, "You know, after this long flight, we should go rest a little before we go to the big house."Marco, however, seemed hesitant. "I understand that you need rest, Lily, but I need to take care of it now. If we get it done quickly, we can then relax and have a great time leading up to the prom back home."Lily smiled understandingly, knowing how important it was for him to come here. "Alright, I get it. Let's do what we need to do first, and then we can enjoy ourselves without any worries."They collected their

The voice bellowed startling Marco from sleep, he gazed with sleepy eyes into the eyes of Anthony.Marco looked around him and discovered that Lily was still sleeping with the sheet covered but it would take a fool not to guess what they had done.He sighed, not making a move."I believe I asked a question," Anthony said."You know we live together, were you expecting something else?" Marco asked.He got up gently, thankful he had slept with his boxers.He put on his shorts and headed downstairs, well aware that Anthony was following behind."Marco," the man questioned.Marco went to the fridge and took out a bottle of water."I am talking to you, boy."Marco leveled him with a bored look, "What do you want?"Anthony stepped towards him in a threatening manner."I told you how I felt about sleeping with my daughter.""Was this before or after you shot my dad?" Marco asked. Anthony stood there, his eyes locked onto Marco, his mouth hung wide open in

Marco said nothing.He just stared at Lily wide-eyed."You what?" he asked.Lily shrugged, "I thought we could sit down and talk about us when this is all over but the issue with my father is hanging over my head."Marco took a step closer, "Lily,""No, hear me out."Marco kept mute and just listened, Lily took a deep breath."I love my father, I do but what he did is unforgivable. I am not going to lie that I will be sad if you kill him but I understand.""So you will hate me?"Lily shook her head, "I will be sad but like I said, I understand."Marco nodded.Lily stretched out her hand again, this time Marco took it and they went home. "Stay here, Marco," Lily said, her voice trembling slightly. "I need to grab something from upstairs."Marco nodded, trying to hide his anxiety. He trusted Lily's decision, but this situation was unlike anything he had ever experienced. He had no idea what to do.As she disappeared up the stairs, he was left alone with his thoughts and the haunting s

A bang woke Marco up from sleep.All the shopping yesterday had worn him out. It was worth it.Seeing the smile on Lily's face made him happy.He rubbed his eyes all weary from sleep, and looked around to wonder what jolted him awake.Marco could have sworn he heard a bang.He stood up and padded to the door thinking Lily was knocking, when he opened the door, there was no one there.He took the stairs to check the front door, switching on the lights at the same time.He turned on the porch lights and frowned when he noticed an envelope lying on the floor."What the hell?" he muttered to himself.He looked around before he picked it up.

Chris paced the floor, almost wearing a hole in it. The movement made Raina so dizzy."Would you stop doing that?" she snapped.Chris turned to her sharply, "Are you mad? You are the cause of all this.""How? Forgive me for trying to rectify your mistakes." Raina yelled."My mistakes? You are the one who went to confront Marco.""Yes only because I believed your lies."Chris laughed, "Oh don't act so innocent in all of this, you were there through it all. You played a part in it too."Raina gaped at him, "You are such a bastard."Chris laughed again, "I know, isn't that why you stuck with me?
