The Billionaire's Secret Lover novel Chapter 5

I zoom off, I don't trust myself to stay another moment in her presence. I will probably end up begging her to forgive me. I can't describe how happy I am that she's still a virgin for me.

I love her so much . I glance at the side mirror and saw her walking slowly with tears in her eyes. My heart clenched, as I look closely to see her going to the park. I will give anything to see her smile.

"Is she the one?"Debbie asked as she watch me glance at the side mirror over and over again.

"Is she who?" I ask, I pretended not to understand her as I schooled my facial expression back to neutral.

"Is she the Nina?. The one you love" She repeated the question, a little bit skeptical of my answer.

"Deborah,there's probably a million women in the world with that name, that doesn't mean that any woman that bears Nina is the one I love" I arch my eyebrows at her frowning.

"That does not answer the question Michael. Stop playing smart" She huff and glare at me.

"What question?" I ask again feigning ignorance as I turn toward the route to her parent's house.

"Michael Thompson?" She shouted getting frustrated.

I sigh " No she's not the one" She search my face for any sign that I'm lying, when she couldn't find anything, she smile as I park the car in front of her house.

"Thank you" She said getting down from the car, she turn to me before entering" Call me when you get home and my regards to Daniel and Diane" She said and walk into the house. Her bubbly spirit now back when she heard Nina is not the person I love.

I reverse the car back to the route of the park and speed up. I want to get to her in time before she does something to herself, I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if anything should happen to her.

I got to the park and search around for her. I found her sitting on a nearby bench and was on call. I wind down my car window to see her clearly. Her black hair was pulled back and bound at the middle. Her dress was wrinkled. Her back was turn to me, so I couldn't make up her facial expression,but she look tired and sad.

"Yes Aurora" I call impatiently into the phone cos she wouldn't stop calling.

"Your mom has been trying to get hold of you sir, but you won't pick the call. She said to find out what time you'll be available for dinner tonight"

"Cancel the dinner plan with my mom but tell her I'll be home tonight"

"But sir..............?"She said a little bit skeptical.

"That will be all, Aurora" I said and disconnect the call. Suddenly, I heard a ear piercing scream and quickly look to where Nina was, scared. She was curled up on the ground sobbing loudly and uncontrollably into the phone. It took all of my willpower for me not to go there right then to hug and comfort her. I wonder who she could be talking to on the phone to make her cry.

She spoke a little while longer on the phone. But she sounded calm and OK now. I still couldn't help but wonder who she spoke with on the phone.

Curiosity got the best of me, immediately she started walking home. I turn to the other side of the road and saw a young boy smoking and looking around for pocket to pick. I signal to him and he came rushing to me, probably praying that I offer him money.

"I need you to go to that lady over there, collect her phone, check the last call and return it back to her. Can you do it?" I ask him when he has gotten to me.

"Yes boss. I will do anything as long as there's money involved" He said as he started walking toward her. He ran into her causing her purse and her phone to fall, he bent down quickly took her phone check and return it to her all in a second, he apologize to her and she went on her way. I was awed.

"The last call was her mom, boss" He said smilling and smirking at me.

"Thank you"I handed him his money and an extra"And that's for a job well done" he smiled and thank me before going on his way.

What could her mom possibly say to her to make her cry. Come to think of it, she never had mother. She once told me that her mother was late. I follow her closely in my car, keepiing some distance between us.

"Hello John. I need you to find some information about Nina Miller for me" I said to John my chief of security, he's job is to find any implicating information about my clients that may jeopardize my company.

"Yes sir. I will be on it right away"

"I want every information you can find both in the record and off record"

"Yes sir" I hung up the call. She has gotten home now and was walking over to Deborah's apartment probably to check if she's home. Deborah didn't tell her that she will be going over to her parent's then. She walk back to her block disappointed and sad, she took the elevator to her apartment, she open the door to her apartment and went in while I stay back in my car a little while just to make sure that she was safe and probably to look at her a little more before going home. It been long I've seen and I still can't believe that she was in front of me a while back.

My phone ringing broke me from my thought as I force myself away from her window.

"Yes John, tell me"I said as soon as I pick the call.

"Yes sir, have gotten all the information you need about Nina Miller" He said.

"All the information?" I question softly a little bit skeptical, though I trust John to do his job thoroughly but this is too soon.

"Yes sir" He repeated confidently.

"OK. Leave the hardcopy on my desk at the office by tomorrow morning and send me the soft copy by email now"

"Yes sir, will send it now" He said and I hung up. Thirty minutes later, my phone altered me that I have a message, I open it and was shocked.

Nina's father remarried three years after she left for school, they have a son who's seven. Her father is the CEO of Pandora shoes while her step mom is a baker and CEO of Happy bites confectionary. Her family are doing pretty well for themselves. Even my baby, she has made a name for herself in the world of journalism. She's currently working at Melton's Media and has won many awards for herself both in school and now.

I smile proudly at the woman she has become. I wish I was there for her all these years but my father warning as always held me back. I can still remember his words vividly like yesterday when I told him I want to marry Nina and not Deborah.

" Marry Deborah Melton,merge the two companies together as one and keep your inheritance or Marry Nina Miller, lose your inheritance and your children probably suffer like how I and your mom did before we build the Thompson's Empire".

I turn the car around and was about to leave when I saw Deborah getting down from a man's car, I couldn't see his face clearly but it looks like they were in a relationship. She went into the house after kissing the man, while he drove off. I couldn't care less. I always known she wasn't faithful to me, that's one of the reasons why I keep tolling the relationship until now. Now I just need to find evidence on her cheating lifestyle.

"John" I call into the phone, immediately the call connected.
