The Return Of The Secret Billionaire chapter 216
Knowing that he and his secretary once had a romantic history together but that they couldn't be together because he was married, Nathan usually wondered how Tori had felt all those while. He usually wondered if she ever moved on but couldn't bring himself to ask her the question. Hearing that she was getting married was a news that shocked him but also relieved him."You are not saying anything Mr Anakin." Tori said with a big smile still on her face."Oh! Of course, I'm so happy for you." He said. He got off his chair and went to her, giving her a hug, "congratulations Tori.""Thank you Mr Anakin." She smiled, hugging him back. "But sir.""Yeah?" "I need a favor from you." She said as she crossed her arms at her middle. "I think I owe you a lot of favors by now." He said and Tori smiled. "Tell me, I'll do anything for you.""I would like you and your wife, Doris, to join us this Saturday while we have dinner.""You'd like us to join you for dinner?""Yeah, I mean I would like you

"So Chris, walk me through your resume." Nathan said to a young man that sat opposite him."Well, I just graduated from Harvard university with a bachelor's degree in economics and I'm on the search for a job." "That's it?" Nathan asked with an arched brow. "I don't have any working experience but I've always wanted to work here ever since I found out about the existence of your company sir." Chris said, smiling. "Chris, as much as I admire your optimism to work with us, I need a man with at least three years experience in this field.""Mr Anakin, before I can get that three years of experience, I need to start somewhere. Please sir, every interview I've gone for have rejected me because I didn't have five years working experience, I need a job." He pleaded, almost on his knees.One of Nathan's staff had resigned due to personal reasons and Nathan had been working double time to fill in the space. It was too much of work for him so he decided to employ a new staff. Of all the other

Tori glared at Nathan for a few moments in silence but then managed to force a smile on her face, "oh it's fine sir, I know, you are a busy man." She chuckled."Tori i am really sorry, my friend Camille just got back from China and her Dad invited me over for dinner, you know Mr Saheed right?""I do, but I also know she is your friend and friends are more important than a mere staff, I totally get it." She smiled."Tori that is not the way it is–""You asked me to represent you at the meeting with the Blossom family and I'm already running late, I'd like to get going now sir." She cut him off and walked away."What is wrong with me! What am I going to do now?" He asked himself as he watched her storm off.For the rest of the day, she spoke to him formally and avoided him all though unless it was for office reasons.Nathan went home, believing she was overreacting and he explained things to his wife."Nathan, I know Camille is your friend but she isn't as important as Tori is in our li

Nathan had refused they slept at home that night and insisted on sleeping at a hotel. He went into his bedroom to pack a few clothes as he had the intention of staying away for a few days and Doris along with officer Ravencrest followed him."Mr Anakin, I assure you that my boys can keep you safe, they will stay up all night guarding your doors and windows." Officer Ravencrest said to Nathan."I appreciate that but I just can't stay here tonight.""Baby they can keep us safe." Doris said as she placed a hand on his shoulder."Honey I'm not willing to take any chance, I feel like I'd be risking your safety and Williams' as well.""But the police have decided to stay with us.""Why aren't you packing a few things for yourself and Williams?" "Because we don't need to baby, they will keep us safe.""They can stay here and search the house properly, I mean for all we know, there might be a bomb under the bed, chairs and or tables." He said as he folded a few clothes into a small bag."Is

Richard laid on the ground, utterly still, eyes open as if admiring the heavens. As Nathan approached him at full speed, praying somewhere in his mind that he would as much as move a finger, Richard remained still and a cursory glance was enough to know he was dead, or so Nathan thought.His eyes had turned red with blood and his other sensory organs gushed out blood."Richard, please wake up." Nathan said almost in tears as he knelt beside him. He didn't know what to do next, Tori had called the ambulance and instructed him to wait on their arrival.Fresh blood oozed from every part of Richard as he laid with his back on the hard gravel floor and Nathan had imagined the amount of pain he must have felt in his last moments."What happened to him?!" Nathan yelled.A woman stepped forward and began explaining, "he seemed to have been in a hurry to get somewhere, he tried to cross the road but didn't notice the car that was speeding. The car came and swept him off his feet and now the dr

"Doris, hurry up or I'll be late!" Nathan yelled out."You don't have to yell," Doris said as she walked in with Nathan's tie in her hands. "You know I'm actually surprised she is still having this party after what happened to her friend just a few days ago." She chatted on as she placed the tie around Nathan's neck and began to knot it."It's not her, it's her Dad, you should know the kind of woman Camille is.""And what kind of woman is she?" She asked as she looked up at his face."Are you seriously asking me that?""Yeah," she nodded, "you know I hardly met her, I didn't even remember who she was until you told me.""Hmm, do I smell jealousy?" Nathan teased as he wrapped his arms around her waist."What no! I'm just saying she shouldn't be having such an elaborate party when her friend is in such a condition, I mean, does she even care?""Hey don't say that, she's not even happy right now, that's why I need to be there for her.""Mmm, okay no problem, what I wanna know is why wasn

"What did you just say Doris?" Nathan yelled out with his eyes wide open."I said Ronnie Anne is here!" Doris squealed with excitement."Nathan, talk to me, what's going on?" Camille asked.Before Nathan could utter any more words, Doris hung up the phone, making him more anxious than he was before, "Doris? Doris!""Nathan! You are feeling me out for fucks sake!" Camille yelled out."There's a ghost in my house.""A ghost?""I have to go, I'll see you later or I'll give you a call okay?" He yelled as he started to descend from the rooftop."Nathan, wait , I'm coming with you." She instantly followed, chasing him from behind.★★★Doris had spent the whole day at home with Williams until an unexpected guest showed up at her doorstep.While Doris was in the kitchen, preparing dinner for her son, she heard the sound of the doorbell as it rang, she hesitated for a moment wondering who it could be but didn't answer, it rang again, "who is it?"

He glanced at his watch and frowned. He was late. He picked up the pace, almost running in an attempt to beat time. He had promised his lady that he would be on time and now he was running late.He finally got to the main road and took his place at the bus stop. After waiting for almost two minutes– two extra wasted minutes of his time– a taxi arrived and after a brief negotiation, they were on their way.His phone rang out from his coat pocket and he already knew who would be calling. "I know, I know, this isn't what I planned either. I'm sorry.""You were supposed to be here ten minutes ago!" She complained over the phone."I am really, truly sorry honey. I'll be there in three minutes… five minutes top.""Get here in two minutes!""I'm in a taxi, I'll be there soon." After he hung up, he noticed the cab driver staring at him through the mirror.

"Yes?""I am detective Sam Rogers, and with me is my partner.""James West." They introduced themselves and showed him their badges."How may I help you fine officers?""Mr Thomas Castiel, you are under arrest for the crime of murder on Mr Anakin's late parents.""Are you serious? You are arresting me?""Yes sir. Please sir, I would advise you to come with us quietly to avoid any embarrassment.""Officers, what is going on here?" Evelyn questioned as she walked in.""Nothing ma'am, we would just like to invite your husband for questioning at the station.""Station? Please, what is going on here?""Calm down ma'am, you'll know his offense when he gets to the station.""Do you have any idea what of you're doing? You had the audacity, you had the guts to come into my house….and arrest me?""I'm afraid so. I would also advise you to limit your words sir, because anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law.""Court of law, what the hell are you talking about?""Ju

Frost grew over the windows even as the duvet kept her warm. Isla watched the ice-crystals grow for a while, allowing her brain to be empty, content to exist and be. The morning would bring the beauty of the ice for sure, that crunch under boot and the bold greeting cold air brings. Yet between now and watching her breaths rise as new white-puffed clouds there will be a very cold night. The kind that only stops at the doors of the well-made houses. The cold weather that seeped through any thin cloth to drain the soul, instead feeds the soul of those well wrapped in warm layers of well insulated fabrics.It was the same type of coldness that reached into one's bones, as if their heart were a door left wide open to the icy wind, slamming only to open again. The only thing to do would be to keep moving, keep heading toward home and the steady warmth of the hearth. There was a lot on her mind that night. And she even tried her best to get Nathan off her mind. She wouldn't just stop thinki

Evelyn met with Regina that day. Not for anything else besides their main discussion. She had purposely visited Regina and had the meeting scheduled at her house. She loved being a wedding guest. It's as if rockets have been lit beneath the soul. There is such love right out in the open. Everyone feels free to let their happy flags fly. Cynics are silent at last. Birdsong becomes the music of the quiet reflections. Souls are united. To have an invitation to such an event is a blessing indeed.She saw the woman from afar, shivering in fear. Fear of what though? Well perhaps it was because the head of the Queens was right at her house! She gave a satisfying grin at the moment and continued with her discussion. "Well, so you see why it is important for us to meet up?" She said, a satisfying smile working its way over to her cheeks. Her face had been plastered with bright heavy makeup. Again. Just on purpose. She ignored Regina's shivering and continued. "So we can discuss the wedding

Nathan is alone, thinking about his life when Doris enters. She tries to confront him, but he just wasn't buying. He was terrified of a whole lot of things. The emotion of our reunion sealed as a perfect photograph in my soul.He had felt so very angry. He'd felt so deeply bloody angry with the universe, with God. Yet that is so unfair. Everything he had struggled for is exactly what he asked to do. He had en route to achieve what he set out to achieve. The pain that was to come with it, the brutal brutal suffering of his soul was necessary. There was no other way to learn what he had learned. The anger is because he want to be with her. He want to be with you so much but he had to keep his own counsel, his own direction with only the influence of the divine ether that came to the artist. Artists would get that. They've felt what he felt. But there must come a time, a day, a moment when he would get to say he'd done what he set out to do. He really hoped so. Because that was when we g

Nathan opened the door for Tori to go in and she smiled at his portrayal of a gentleman."Thank you." "You're welcome."She walked in with a small bag in her hand."Here let me help you.""Oh no it's fine, I got it." She replied smiling."I don't like the idea of inconveniencing you in this way."Tori had insisted on following Nathan home after he dropped her at her place. She claims she couldn't leave him alone and let depression take over him."Mr Anakin, I'd like you to know that I have no secret agenda behind this, I just want to make sure you're okay by all times." Tori explained."Why are you saying that? I know you have no hidden agenda Tori.""Then let me be with you in such a crucial time sir… as a confidant." She said with so much sincerity in her tone.Nathan sighed, "as you wish."Now they were together in the apartment, Tori had insisted on preparing dinner but he plainly refused, he still had his mind on Doris and he wondered what kind of things the abductors would be

The door of the station pushed open and barging into the room was Evelyn with the other important women of Ettavile as her minions.Her heels made loud noises as she strolled confidently into the D.P.O's office."Ma'am you can't go in there." A police officer stopped her."My daughter has been kidnapped and I know who did it so move!" She yelled at him, pushing him away from the entrance.Inside the office was Nathan and Tori who had rushed back to the station after their conversation with Evelyn."I know who the culprit is! Which station is it?" Evelyn yelled at Nathan."Uhm, I can't seem to remember the name… the huh.. the one located just at the end of delmer street.""Be there by the time I get there.""Wait what?"Evelyn hung up the phone then faced her group members."We're going to the police station ladies.""What for?" One of the women asked."To report a little rat."Nathan jumped on his feet and picked up his jacket."What's going on?" Tori asked."We have to go back to the

They had no other option than to meet Doris and her husband. The gang stole Drew from us a piece at a time. Every week they pushed him slightly further until not only did he have no morals, he thought that way of thinking was a desirable freedom. His family, we who truly loved him, became his enemy. He looked at us like we were vile to him. Then one day I found him shaking in his bedroom, crying like the sun had been stolen from the sky, his hands slick with another's blood. That's the last time I ever saw the real Drew, in that moment of remorse. After that he sunk so low into his new m.o. that no-one got close unless they were bringing news of the next gang order.Nobody joins a gang without being a lost soul first. No-one goes to a monster for guidance unless it's their only option. Yet I can't underestimate this gang boy, however young he is. Until the head of any serpent is removed, you ignore the body at your peril. Given his youth he is perhaps more reachable than an older boy

Owen has nothing, he talks to his wife. He called his mother, they agree to beg Nathan and Doris. Incels, if women were robots then you could push their buttons and make them dispense sex in the way a coffee machine gives coffee. They aren't robots, or fem-iods, or foids, but people. Your hatred of women shows up in who you are, thus at an instinctive level, below the conscious brain, women will fear you. This fear is there to protect them from having sex with a man who does not love them. Women are people. Their "sex" is a form of bonding with the one they are in love with, male or female. People also tend to love a person who loves themselves, who is at ease with who they are. So maybe work on yourself? Build empathy instead of entitlement and hate? Personally, I only have sex with a guy when I love him. Not a robot.The "Incel" according to the Oxford Dick-tionary of "we know everything about you assholes who hide behind fake names and avatars," is short for "Incompetent Celibates
