The Return of Billion Boulevard Chapter 98
"Put your head on my shoulder, hold me in your arms…" That was the sound of Billion's phone ringing. Billion had never felt so glad to hear his ringtone, it was Joy calling him with her office number."Sorry, I need to take this." Billion said to Esther."It's fine, go ahead." Esther urged."Hello, what's up?" Billion asked."Hi, Billion. It's me, Joy" Joy said on the other end of the phone."Hey, I know it's you. What's up?” Billion repeated."I just realized that I forgot to remind you to sign some important documents before leaving the office.I wanted to let you know and see if you could come back soon and take care of it." Joy said."Oh, I see. Thanks for letting me know. Yes, those documents are crucial. It would be best if I come back to the office and sign them as soon as possible." Billion said.“I'm sorry, it escaped my memory.” Joy said."It's fine. Thank you for letting me know, Joy. Should I come back to the office now?" Billion asked, his tone suggesting eagerness to l
The Return of Billion Boulevard Chapter 99
Billion stood in front of his mirror to access his outfit once more. He had on a well-tailored suit that fit him perfectly, it wasn't as expensive as the Armani he had worn the other day, but it would do.The suit was a navy colored one and he had on a blazer and matching trousers. The Blazer had a structured silhouette and was buttoned up.Inside, he wore a crisp, long-sleeved dress shirt made of high-quality cotton. The color of the shirt was a classic shade of light blue.The shirt was neatly tucked into his trousers, and his cuffs were fastened with cufflinks for an added touch of sophistication.Billion rearranged his tie. It was a silk-blend tie that complements the colors of his suit and shirt and was tied in a neat and professional knot, and was just the right length, reaching the top of his trousers' waistband.He wore tailored trousers that matched his suit jacket, and was a straight fit. It was worn at his natural waist and was neither too tight or too loose. It was hemm

"You know, you remind me of myself, or should I say you remind me of who I used to be." Billion said to Esther."A hopeless romantic?" Esther asked teasingly."Yes, that's one of the many things I was." Billion said."What changed?" Esther asked."Life. Life happened and changed a lot of things, I was forced to see reality." Billion replied."Well, your answer is quite vague, but I won't ask for clarification. People shouldn't be judged based on what their family members have done." Esther replied."I'm not judging him, I'm just trying to look out for you." Billion responded."I really appreciate that, but it's not necessary. Xavier is a hard-working young man, he's honest and he's simply trying to sort out his own path. I wish people would see past his family sins and see the potential in him." Estter said."Well, if he's really all you say he is, I wish you both well." Esther said."Thank you." Esther said, a smile on her beautiful face."So, when's the wedding?" Billion asked."We

"Absolutely not!" Joy said."Why? She could be of assistance." Billion replied."In what way? From what you've said, it's obvious she's head over heels in love with him. She wouldn't be able to reason properly." Joy retorted."We can't be certain until we try. Esther is probably going to end up being a victim of Xavier's scheme if we don't notify her." Billion said."We will tell her, but not just yet. We have no solid proof against Xavier." Joy said."We do. You're a living proof. Xavier has been begging you to go out with him, even if that doesn't change her mind completely, atleast, it will gain her attention." Billion said."And then what? It's going to be my word against Xavier's and we both know who to place our money on. She won't believe us. Xavier's just going to tell her I'm responsible for the downfall of his parents and now, I'm trying to bring him down too and she'll believe him. And then, you're going to have to reveal yourself. And if anyone finds out who you are, our w

Billion stared blankly at his computer screen. It had been almost an hour since Joy left to meet up with Xavier.She had promised to keep him updated and text him the address where Xavier had asked her to meet him but she hadn't sent anything.He felt restless. Was Joy okay? A part of him knew physically hurting Joy was something really stupid and even Xavier wouldn't be that stupid, but still, he felt really worried.He considered calling her, but decided against it. Joy was a strong woman, she could look after herself, besides, it's just been an hour, it's possible she was yet to locate the place.Many thoughts kept flashing through Billion's mind, suddenly his phone rang, without looking at the caller ID, he answered."Joy! What happened? I've been worried sick about you. Are you okay?" Billion asked."Woah, slow down" the person on the other end of the phone replied with a light laugh."This isn't Joy. Who is this?" Billion asked."No, this isn't Joy and as for your question, I'm

"The Boulevard headquarters?" Esther asked."Yes." Billion simply replied."Yes, I do know where it's located but what has that brand got to do with my question?" Esther asked."It has a lot to do with it. We need to go there, but first, let me confirm if Joy is back to the office." Billion replied.He quickly sent a text to Joy and she confirmed that she was in the office and was waiting for him, he assured her he would be there soon."Billion, what's going on?" Esther asked."Just drive to the Boulevard headquarters, when we get there, I promise to explain everything." Billion said."How can you expect me to just drive off to a place I know no one? Besides, my fiance just called me and he sounded really scared, I'm supposed to be with him right now, I just need you to answer this simple question about how you know where he is." Esther screamed."Calm down, I can assure you, your fiance does not need you running to him right now, he's safe." Billion said reassuringly."How can you be
The Return of Billion Boulevard Chapter 104
"Why?" Esther whispered."That's the same question we've been asking ourselves and we're yet to figure it out." Billion replied."I'm really sorry for springing this up on you, but you just had to be told the truth. We may not have been friends for a long time, but I know you have a good heart and I can't stand by and watch you get hurt." Billion said.Esther was trying to process everything, this was the last thing she was expecting to hear. Her thought was distracted by the message sound on her phone going off.She brought out her phone and realized it was messages from Xavier, he sent not just messages but pictures as well."Is everything okay?" Billion asked her when he realized she just continued to stare at her phone for a while."Xavier sent me pictures and he's hurt. Listen, I know he may be up to no good, but I can't sit back and watch while he's in this condition.I'm not going to tell him about any of what we've discussed, but right now, I need to be by his side." Esther sa

"Number one." Billion started, "Xavier can bring up the name; Joy." Esther scoffed loudly, "That's not possible." she said."Hold on, I'm not done yet. Xavier could bring up Joy's name and tell you about her and about his past relationship with her. I believe he would also mention how badly he had treated her and how he deeply regrets it. He could say she had an involvement in what happened to his parents and instead of resenting her, her actions awakened something he had been bottling in.Xavier would then confess to you he had rekindled his relationship with Joy and he realizes he's in love with her. And then he'll claim it would be unfair to you for him to proceed with the marriage knowing fully well his heart belongs to another." Billion explained and paused."I think I get it, this is a possibility. Xavier knows you have a kind heart, he knows you would never force him to marry you, he's aware you love him deeply and rather than him being in an unhappy marriage with you, you'd r

Billion, Joy, Ecstasy and Lord Boulevard busied themselves with packing for their long-awaited vacation. Laughter and chatter bounced off the walls as they gathered their belongings.Suddenly, Joy's phone pierced through the lively atmosphere with its insistent ringtone. She glanced at the caller ID and picked, “Hello.”After a while, she yelled, "What?” The abrupt interruption drew everyone's attention.After a brief exchange, Joy offered a quick "Thank you" and ended the call. “What's the matter?” Ecstasy asked.Joy simply urged her to turn on the TV and switch to Channel 108. Ecstasy did so, and their eyes were glued to the screen.On the television, an interview was underway. Stella Brown, flanked by her parents, Beauty and Joshua Brown, spoke earnestly to the interviewer. “Billion Boulevard has graciously extended financial assistance to my family in our time of need.” Stella revealed.The interviewer pressed for an explanation, “Ma'am, why would Billion Boulevard offer such

The office environment was buzzing with energy as Billion walked in. The sound of keyboards clicking and phones softly ringing fills the air, creating a productive hum.As Billion entered, a ripple of excitement spread through the room. The employees glanced up from their workstations, their faces breaking into cheerful smiles. The air was filled with a positive vibe, enhanced by the remnants of a memorable celebration from the previous night. After Billion settled into his office, his secretary walked in."Hello sir. There's someone here to see you." she said."Who's that? I wasn't aware I had an appointment this morning." Billion replied."You don't. The lady came in and requested to see you. I asked her to come back another time after she had fixed an appointment but she was insistent and refused to leave." she replied."What's her name?" Billion asked.“Stella Brown."When Billion heard that name, he found himself torn between professional courtesy and personal discomfort. Billi

"He's about to leave the premises isn't he?" Joy asked. Her expression shifted from one of elation to a fleeting moment of disappointment. "He is." Billion answered."What do you intend to do? You've already had a really interesting evening.First, it was Xavier and his family. Next, it was Stella. The press conference and now, Micah. Maybe you can talk to him tomorrow?" Joy suggested. Her brows furrowed slightly, and her eyes widened with a tinge of longing. She wished for nothing more than to prolong this fleeting, stolen moment of intimacy and let it linger a little while longer."I think it's better I do it now. I'll let him know that I'm aware of where he is at every point in time.Also, I should inform him of his new occupation as well. And most importantly, he needs to formally meet his new boss." Billion replied."Looks like you still have a lot on your hand, so, I'll leave you to it" she said. With a soft sigh that carried a mixture of longing and understanding, Joy reached

"It's time." After walking away from Stella, Billion had gone to wash his face. He had just returned to the garden when Joy walked up to him and notified him that it was time. He had a press conference to attend."Oh boy." he muttered and followed Joy to where the media was. They tried crowding in on him and bombarding him with all their questions at once, but Joy wasn't having it.In a calm, composed and controlled voice, she said "Thank you all for your interest. I understand there are many questions, and Mr Boulevard will do his best to address them one at a time. Let's start with one question at a time, please"However, that plea fell on deaf ears, everyone had something to ask the CEO of D'Boulevard empire."I appreciate your enthusiasm, but it would be helpful if we could take this one question at a time. That way, Mr Boulevard can provide you with accurate and thoughtful responses" Joy repeated and fortunately, the crowd seemed to understand her."To ensure that everyone's

"Billion" a soft voice called out from behind him.Billion had not gotten up to five feet away from where he was when he heard his name.The voice which called out his name served as a reminder of the past—a bittersweet symphony of emotions stirs within him."Stella." he muttered without turning.A wave of mixed emotions crashed over him, taking him by surprise. A rush of memories flooded his mind, reminding him of the tumultuous times they shared together and the pain she caused him.Initially, his heart skipped a beat, caught off guard by the familiarity of that voice he once knew so well. His body instinctively tensed up. A knot formed in the pit of his stomach, as if the weight of their history resurfaced in an instant.Despite the tumultuous mix of emotions, curiosity and a sense of self-preservation urged him to turn around, to face the woman whose voice still carried a strong recognition within him."Hello Stella." Slowly, Billion pivots on his heels, his eyes meeting hers for

Billion's head swiveled gradually upon hearing his name, locking eyes with the person before him."Xavier," he said in a relaxed tone."It was you?!" Xavier asked accusingly."What was me?" Billion replied, his demeanor unwavering."You really have the guts to ask me that? Whatever did my family do toyou?" Xavier yelled."Are you really asking me that?" Billion responded, he had hoped that question was a rhetorical one.“You humiliated those who work for me!”"What about my family? Did they humiliate you as well? Or are you just a sick individual who derives not from watching the downfall of others?" Xavier spat"Your dad almost ruined my empire on love television! You and your parents are cruel individuals. You should be grateful I didn't look for a way to put you behind bars." Billion replied.Upon hearing those words, Xavier let out a mocking laugh "So what? I should kneel down and thank you for your mercy towards me and my family?" "There's no need for that. Do enjoy the rest of

"Good evening everyone" Billion said. He took a moment to scan through the crowd and he was pleased to see the three major families seated where he wanted, in front of him, seeing him clearly."No camera will ever be able to truly capture this moment," Joy muttered.She was watching the three families and their expressions were something she would pay to watch repeatedly if only they could be properly captured. The first family to catch her eyes were the Greys.Grace Grey's face initially displayed surprise, as her eyes widened and her eyebrows raised involuntarily. Her mouth parted slightly, indicating astonishment and disbelief at the unexpected turn of events. As the realization sank in that the person in front of them was the same young man she and her son had humiliated at the gym years back, her expression morphed into a combination of embarrassment and regret. Her eyes darted away momentarily, avoiding direct contact with his gaze, as a wave of guilt washes over her. Line

Micah stared at her. He was experiencing a whirlwind of emotions. He was feeling a combination of guilt, shame, anxiety, and uncertainty about his future. The weight of his actions and the consequences he was facing weighed heavily on him.As time passed in the cell that he was in, he had begun to reflect on the gravity of his actions and the impact it would have on his family name if it became public knowledge.However, he did not feel regret over his actions, he felt regret over being caught. The uncertainty of what lies ahead, including potential legal ramifications and expenses was causing him great distress.When Joy unexpectedly showed up and requested to speak with him, his emotions intensified as he was notified. He felt a mix of nervousness and apprehension, unsure of what she wanted to discuss with him. The encounter could trigger a range of thoughts and possibilities in his mind, adding to his already heightened state of anxiety.As that statement left Joy's lips, Micah

It was gone. All of it! Joy kept looking at the shelf where she had kept the million dollars Jerry had given her the previous day, and just as she had expected, the money was gone.As her plan unfolds exactly as she anticipated, a wave of exhilaration and satisfaction washes over her. She experiences a profound sense of accomplishment and validation, as the meticulous effort and strategic thinking she invested in crafting her plan have paid off.Joy permeated her being, and her face lights up with an infectious smile that reflects the triumph she feels within. She feels a surge of self-confidence and pride, knowing that her foresight and calculated steps have led to the desired outcome.It reinforces her belief in her abilities and affirms that she possesses the competence to handle the situation on ground. The previous night, she had called Billion and explained her plans to him. At first, he was skeptical, however, he gave her the go ahead.Joy's heart is filled with a profound s
