Forced Marriage To The Billionaire

Chapter 25- Let's Run Away

" Well, what can I say except congratulations,” I quickly raised my head from my computer screen when I heard Scott's voice,

“ Scott," I said as I looked at him and sighed, everything was alright, every single thing, until that man decided to ruin it.

“ I'm sorry Scott, it's not like…”

" Sorry for what? That you got engaged?” he asked,

How did he know I got engaged last night? He wasn't there.

" Why do you look so surprised, it's all over the news, two most powerful families joining together as a family, isn't that amazing?” he asked,

“ Scott you're making this all sound like it's my fault when you definitely know how my parents can be, when they want something they'll stop at nothing until they get it," I said as I felt my eyes begin to tear up.

“ Then make sure they don't get what they want this time, let's go back to America," he said and I blinked looking at him,

“ What?! You know I can't do that now," I said,

“ Or you just don't want to because you can't wait to be the wife of that man," he said and I shook my head in bewilderment, I can't believe what he was saying,

“ We both know that I would return back to America in a beat if I had a choice, but look at the situation Scott, if I run now it's going to fucking create a scandal, I don't want to ruin my family's name, why can't you understand that? As it is, a lot of people have already given me a name as the spoilt daughter, what would happen if it gets in the news that I ran back to America after getting engaged, that wouldn't be good for my family,” I said,

" So now, I'm your ex, just like that?” he asked as he took his head up like he was trying to push back tears,

" I'm going to find a way Scott, I'll find a way to get out of this,” I said,

" How?” he asked,

" I have a plan, but I can't tell you, but if you can be patient and wait for me, we can get back together, if everything works out fine but if you can't I wish you…” I stopped, to wipe my tears, I couldn't believe I was saying this to him, I've loved him for a long time, I didn't want him to be in the arms of another,

He walked from where he was standing as he took me in his arms in a hug, and I couldn't hold the tears another as the dam broke and I became a sobbing mess on his chest,

“ Shh, you know how I hate it when you cry," he said as he patted my head before dropping a kiss and when he wanted to pull away from me I held onto him tighter.

“ Listen to me, I've always prayed that I'll be the one to take you to church, you don't know how many times I've imagined that,” suddenly I wished I had considered his proposal, at least he was better than marrying that man, my parents wouldn't have asked a married woman to get married to someone else.

“ I'm going to go now, but I'll be back for you. You should know me, I don't give up on things that are mine, I'll make Antonio pay for disrupting my peaceful life." he said as he looked into my eyes and then his lips dropped to mine, so many unspoken words said in just a kiss and then he pulled away,

“ I'm sorry," I whispered before he pulled away.

He looked at me intensely and then without saying another word he walked out of my office, leaving an empty feeling in my heart.

I slowly sat back on my chair, suddenly feeling like I didn't want to work but I had to.

My phone started ringing and I turned to it to see it was the fucker calling. I picked up the phone and answered the call.

“ I hate you!" and then I ended it feeling a little relieved but not truly satisfied. I wanted to punch his face right now and make him suffer for everything he has been putting me through.

I decided to see what news and pictures were circulating the Internet so I picked up my phone and searched and fucking stupid articles.

We were in love? How, when did I fall in love that I didn't know. Leave the media to give you news about yourself you didn't know.

“ Fucking stupid shit!” I cursed as I dropped my phone in anger,

I hate that man, I fucking hate that man.

I took deep breaths as I closed my eyes to calm myself down, I had things to take care of, a lot of work to do and I was not going to let that man ruin my day.

I got back to work, at least my mind would be occupied. I was so focused on my work until I heard the ringing of my phone.

I ignored it, thinking it was him but the caller won't stop calling me.

I finally decided to pick, without looking at my phone screen.

I put the phone to my ear as I waited for the caller to speak but I didn't hear anything.

Huh? I removed the phone from my ear and looked at my screen and the caller was still on and the number was unknown.

“ Hello?"

“ Don't you look beautiful in a blue suit," came a bone chilling voice.

“ Who are you?"
