THE BILLIONAIRE'S WIFE

Chapter 9

Liam's POV

I was so devastated right now to the point that I wanted to kill someone after I received the news from Luis that my wife was still with his lover again. I don't care where the hell she is or who's with her! All I care about is Mikayla.

Helena promised her that she would attend her recital performance, but she didn't show up. Mikayla was so upset but she just hid it. She knows her mom very well. And Helena doesn't have a little bit of affection for her. But Mikayla still yearned for her mother's love.

I shouldn't trust Helena that much to make a promise to Mikayla. That's why I can't contain my anger right now. She chose to spend her time with a man rather than spending time with her daughter even just a day.

I don't want Mikayla to hear rumors about her mother's affair. Since Helena and I got married, I've been trying to make my life private, though I am a very well-known businessman. There was a time when the paparazzi photographed her with a man going out to a hotel, and I had to take it down immediately and paid a lot of money just to shut it.

Dammit! I don't care if she ruined my reputation. All that matters to me is Mikayla's well-being. If rumors spread about her mom, it could affect her, especially at school.

I called Luis.

"Mr. Evans."

"Luis, find her. " I ordered him with gritted teeth.

"Yes, sir. "

I hung up the phone and massaged my forehead; I was experiencing a headache again. How could Helena be so selfish? How could she say she was in love at this moment? I cracked a laugh. She is incapable of loving someone because if she did, she must love her daughter first.

Fuck!

I get up from my chair and glance out the window wall; the scenery is quite nice. I can see a wonderful view from my office. I cannot understand why my life has turned out this way. My jaw clenched as I remembered Helena barging into my office.

"I'm pregnant, Liam!" Helena declared. She is the only daughter of my father's best friend. "What the hell?!" I was shocked by her outburst.

"Yes, it is hell darling," she said smiling, and put the pregnancy test on my office table.

I was speechless for a moment while staring at the pregnancy test on the table. There were two red lines.

"So, what's the plan?" she asked while playing with her painted fingernails as if her pregnancy wasn't a big deal. How could she?

"What are you talking about?" I asked her dumbfounded. I'm trying to control my anger or else I'm going to strangle her neck right now.

"I'm talking to this baby." She pointed her point finger to her tummy.

"It's just a one-night stand Helena and you know it, I don't do commitment," I said lazily.

I can't believe this woman! I can't believe that all the women I hooked up with, she's the only one I got pregnant. Sleeping with her was just a big mistake.

She shrugged her shoulder and said, "Me either. "

"This is impossible!" I exclaimed fiercely. My father would kill me if I knocked up his best friend's daughter without taking responsibility for it.

"Are you sure it is mine?" I inquired in a serious tone; she appeared unaffected as if the words were exactly what she expected to hear.

"Yes, but if you want to get rid of it, it's fine with me." She never shows emotion nor does she care.
