He's My Ruthless Billionaire

Chap. 24

Stella

“No.” I scrunched up my face. “What?” Cassandra said.

I shook my head vigorously, "I'm not wearing that piece of cloth, it's a Charity event Cassandra."

She rolled her eyes, "Aura, please help this girl out." Cassie flung the dress on Auramona and left the room.

"Fucking time she left." I muttered under my breath. I was pissed with her even though I shouldn't be because Errin and I weren't together anymore so to speak but I saw the messages after messages that she constantly sent him though he never answered any...

Uh...why were we friends again?

"Don't be like that Stel." Aura whispered when she joined me in my closet.

I hissed, "No. I will be like that." I grabbed a full length black dress that was off the shoulders long sleeve. "Does this work?"

She nodded, "Yeah that is cute, pair it with those nude heels." I envisioned it in my head and actually smiled.

"I'm gonna look good tonight."

Aura laughed, "Maybe he'll take you to bed."

Standing outside my room holding the dress in front of me looking at the standing mirror, I was pleased with how I looked. I turned and smirked at her, “And I’d gladly let him.”

"You're so horny... My God..." She said before we both fill into a fit of laughter.

We never said anything after that, she just started to do my hair while she told me about Todd and that she wasn't happy with him anymore. Guess everyone had guy troubles.

I knew I made a mistake. A mistake I'd have to try my best to make up for, for the rest of my life. I really didn't know if he was ever going to look at me the same way. He was already on edge with me, all he wanted to do was to get in tuned with himself and let us become a couple properly but as usual I screwed it up.

For once I attempted to put myself first and failed terribly. I lost the man that I loved so much and I didn’t know if I’d ever totally get him back.

Today was definitely something. The way he looked at me, I saw it in his eyes – his longing, longing to have me. I knew he loved me but he didn’t believe in my love anymore.

The past couple of months weren’t fun for me but it wasn’t hard. I dug my own hole and I decided to wallow in it. I never wanted anyone to feel sorry for me. Feeling sorry for myself was bad as it was and I wanted to be happy. It was just saddening that as soon as I told Cassie that we weren’t together anymore, she started her wild man hunt.

It was like everything for me fell a part. Jeremiah tested me but he couldn’t will me away, Matt trier but gave up when his efforts seemed in vain. And I lost the man I loved the most.

Secrets were amongst us all but something told me that something major was being held back but I wasn’t sure by who. Leon, he acted very strange some months back… In my times of vulnerability, something made me wanted Leon but as soon as it came on that hospital bed, it left. I could never talk to him without feeling nasty because he’s Errin’s best friend.

Cassie was really infatuated to not realize that Errin didn’t want her and she was very much wasting her time.

Aura ran her hands along my shoulders before slightly squeezing, “There you go boo, all set.”

I looked extravagant but I loved it, “Definitely gonna take me to bed.” We both started laughing.

********

Errin

I had been listening to Leon and what he was saying to me. He knew, he knew all this time who crashed into Stella’s car all those months back and never uttered a word to me.

“I never told you because you’re a lunatic when it comes to people you care about.” He sighed.

Words were still for me, all I did was look at Lee. I wanted to punch him in the face so bad but I held my composure. I wasn’t going to lose my composure, tonight will be hitting the stone on the head.

“I understand, it’s the past anyway.” I said while straightening my tie which was giving me a hard time since Stella would always fix it for me over these years. I hissed.

“So wait…” he trailed, “– that’s it?” He asked looking perplexed.

“Listen, I don’t have time to dwell on the past.” I frowned, “If Stella had died by Lauren's recklessness and you’d be telling me this now, I’d probably kill you.” I patted his shoulder and chuckled.

He rolled his eyes, “And I fucking believe you asshole.”

I didn’t tell Leon that Stella would be my date because I literally hadn’t spoken about my private love life with anyone for six months. It seemed like I was living a very sad life but honestly I had time to reflect. Reflect on a lot, especially on Stella.

I needed her back…

I doubt she'd be very reluctant. The way she looked at me today… with longing…

Only God knew how much effort it took for me to chill and play it cool when I was itching to give her a piece of my mind. She was fucking self absorbent until she didn’t realize that she should help the people who love her. Time, she didn’t give me and patience, she never had.

Tonight we will talk about all of these stuff and I will ensure of it.

I was currently parked in front of Stella’s house with a churning feeling in the pit of my stomach and as I was about to exit the car, she stepped out – she looked exquisite. So damn beautiful...

And for the third time today, words became still for me….

I'm sorry guys, words can't express how I feel but 2017 has been a hectic one so far and that is why I have been missing. The final chapter will be posted after this and then the epilogue shortly.

Happy reading :*
