THE BILLIONAIRE'S CHOICE

CHAPTER 60

Chadwick and Jack left the house. They all looked sad and the was seriously no hope in finding the fund. Ivy stood from the couch and she knocked on his room door.

"Come in." She heard Darien voice from inside.

She opened the door slowly and she saw him laying on the bed. He was pressing his phone and he didn't look worried. He looked at her and he smiled.

She forced a smile and it was obvious she wasn't happy. She felt like she was the biggest mistake of his life. If she had not come into his life, he would still have been the owner of the company.

She walked slowly to him. She sat on his bed opposite him.

"Are you okay?" He asked with concern.

"How can I be okay?" Ivy squeezed her face and she felt like crying.

He dropped his phone on his bed and he went to her. He sat beside her and he hugged her.

"Don't blame yourself. I chose you, and I don't have any regrets." He patted her hair.

His words seemed convincing but it didn't move her. She kept trying to remember what her parents gave her, she was just clueless.

Darien got a call. He stopped hugging her, and he went to his phone. He checked the person and it was Drake. He had a huge frown on his face and he felt like shooting the phone. He didn't want to answer but he answered.

"What do you want?" Darien deepened his voice and he still had the frown.

"Calm down Darien. I have good news." Drake had a sly voice.

"Goodbye."

"My inauguration is next week. I ma finally going to take your position."

"Don't be too confident."

"Okay I won't." He spoke sarcastically and he cut the call.

Darien was boiling with anger and he never knew a point like this will come, where Drake will have the guts to threaten him. He was frowning and he exhaled deeply. He was so angry right now and he really wished Ivy could remember.

Ivy noticed his change in behavior and he looked very angry. She walked to him and she stayed a his back.

"Are you okay Darien?" She asked with a soft voice.

Darien ignored her question. He didn't want to vent his anger on her.

"I'm talking to you Darien." She tapped his hand.

He held his anger back and he didn't want it to take over him.

"Darien!" She tapped him again.

"What?!" He screamed and he turned to her.

She was so startled and she had never heard him scream that way towards her.

"Why don't you have a single memory?! Can't you remember?! This so frustrating!" He frowned at her dangerously and he was panting heavily.

She was extremely startled and she felt so guilty.

"I am so sorry if that is how you felt." She had tears stuck in her eyes. "I know that I am completely responsible for the problems you have."

"Oh no. Ivy, that's not what I meant. Don't take it the wrong way." Darien came back to his senses.

"It's already late I think I should be going." She faked a smile and she still had tears stuck at her eyes.

She turned and she left the room. She took her bag and she was about leaving. Darien held her right hand back and he turned her to him.

"I am so sorry Ivy. I said it by mistake." Darien felt so anxious.

"What you said by mistake is the real truth. I am the biggest problem in your life." Tears dropped from her eyes.

"What are you saying?" He hugged her tightly. "I am truly sorry. I really didn't mean what I said."

She tried to remove her body from his but he was just tom strong. She gav up and she began to cry in chest.

"I am sorry Darien. I should never have fallen in love with you." She kept crying uncontrollably.

"Don't say that. Like I said, you are my choice." He hugged her tightly and he patted her hair.

*****
Arizona went to the bar room in her house. It was small but it had chieves which were filled with different kind of drinks.

She was planning to drink till her stomach could carry. She picked a bottle of alcohol and it's cup. She sat on the chair and she poured it to the fullest. She drank it and she continued to drink it, without stopping.

The memories of Drake betrayal couldn't stop her from drinking. She had finally lost all hope in getting Darien. She didn't believe she lost to that girl called Ivy.

She poured another cup and she said was already drunk. She picked her phone and the only name that appeared to her mind was Rocky. She dialed his number and without wasting time, he picked.

"Hello handsome." Arizona laughed and she was wasted.

"Whare are you?" He gave that formal voice.

"At home, in the bar." She laughed again and she smiled.

He cut the call and everyone knew why he did that. Arizona had tears in her eyes and she drank another cup. If she had her way, she would finish the bar.

Minutes passed, and Rocky entered the bat room in a rush. He looked very worried and he rushed towards Arizona.

"Rocky? Is that you?" She smiled at him and she drank another cup.

"Are you okay?" He looked very worried.

"Like I said, you will always be my next option." She smiled at him.

"Let me take you to your room." He was trying to hold her firm but she disagreed.

How he got into the he house was a surprise for Arizona but she was too drunk to ask. He was able to carry her in his arms.

It was like he knew everywhere in her house. He was able to guess her room. He opened the door and he dropped her on the bed. He sighed and she was completely wasted. He covered her with the white duvet.

Before he could move, she grabbed his hands and she pushed him to fall on her. Hos heart skipped a beat and this was what he had always wanted. He could take advantage of her drunkness and fulfill his dreams but he didn't.

"I think you should sleep and I will go home." He was feeling very anxious.

She smiled at him. She pushed him by his neck and she kissed him. He widened his eyes and he was extremely shocked. He gulped and he closed his eyes to enjoy. He stopped and he looked at her.

"Do you want to sleep with me?" She turned to a serious face.
