Betrothed To The Cold Billionaire

“I’ve decided it’s high time for you to leave your little boyfriend.”

“Wait.. what.. why??” Bianca asked in shock.

“I’ve set you up for marriage with a more suitable patner.” He answered.

“What?!?!?” My confused expression morphed into a huge frown. I pulled away from the hug and took few steps away from him.

“Why would you do that to me dad?” I asked, with pain and betrayal laced in my voice.

“Princess, I figured it would be really good for you at a time like this. The man that has asked for your hand in marriage is a very good person. He has been admiring for a long time now and promi….”

“Enough!!!” Bianca screamed angrily.

“Princess.. if you would just listen to…”

“Listen?? To you?? Why the hell would I listen to you when you’ve sold me out.. all for what?? Money??”

“Don’t put it like that princess. I’m doing this for your own good.”

“Bullshit! You’re just doing it for yourself!! You didn’t even ask for my opinion in the matter.”

“But I’m telling you now..”

“When the decision has already been made. Did you ever sit me down and ask me if I would be okay with an arranged marriage?? Did you??” Bianca asked angrily.

If she was in an animated movie, her nose would have been flaring. That showed how angry she was.

“I didn’t but…”

“Then why would you make such a decision without my approval? Why would sell me out like that? I trusted you. You’re the only family I have right now but you’ve turned your back on me!!”

This was the first time Bianca’s father have seen Bianca get really mad at him so he was very shocked at her outburst.

He opened his mouth but no words could come out so he shut them back. Wheat could he even say? She was right. Whether he did it intentionally or not, he tried to sell her out.

He didn’t even ask for her opinion on the matter. He only told her when the decision had been finalized and that was the thing that made her mad. He hated seeing his precious daughter being so hostile to him so the only thing hee could do right now was rectify the problem that he caused.

“Stop looking at me with such apologetic eyes if you’re still going to go on with your plans. I don’t want to talk about this anymore with you so get out.” Bianca told him coldly.

She could see the pain in his eyes but she didn’t care. Her father would never have such thoughts of selling her out for marriage in the first place. She didn’t know what had gotten into him.

She needed to teach him a lesson so she wouldn’t have such thoughts ever again.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

“Princess..”

“Unless you’re going to stop what you’re planning, I don’t want to hear another word from you so get out of my fucking room while I’m still asking nicely.”

Bianca’s father figured now wasn’t the time to apologize. He wanted her to calm down first so he just bowed his head in remorse before walking out of the room.

The moment he left the room, he heard the door click shut from inside. He turned around and placed his head on the door while he listened with an aching heart as she cried from within.

“I’m so sorry princess.” He muttered as he left for his study.

He needed to let the Baldwins know that he was pulling out of the deal. He knows that if he went on with it, Bianca would hate him to the rest of their lives and he doesn’t want that.

She ‘s the daughter of the woman that he loved the most, she was his princess and he wouldn’t be able to live with her hating him for eternity.

“Hillary, meet my husband Adrian.. and Adrian this is my brother, Hillary. The same one you saw with me at the Cafe that day.”

Ariel had a huge smile on her face when she said that while Hillary seem really confused. He knows that were supposed to be introduced to each other. Afterall, he’s her elder brother but the way that she put it was really suspicious.

He could tell something was going in between them but he didn’t know what it was. Adrian on the other hand was speechless but not really surprised with what was happening.

He knew he would have to meet the mystery man that he mistook as his wife’s lover but he never knew she would try to throw his stupidity at his face like this.

It made him feel more and more stupid. He opened his mouth and was about to say something, at least greet the man that had given him sleepless nights when the gates to the mansion opened again.

“It’s the Montgomerys” Ariel’s mother muttered in anticipation as she watched the series of fancy cars drive in.

The cars packed in the driveway and the drivers came out. They turned and moved to open the door for all of them. The first person to come out was a teenage girl.

“Adrian..” She called with a huge smile on her face when she saw him. Then, she ran to hug him tightly.

“I missed you so much.” She muttered against his chest.

Ariel stared as Adrian hugged her back affectionately. What’s going on? Who’s she to him? She thought he was an only child.

“That’s Adrian’s step sister.” Ariel felt Hillary whisper in her ear. Step sister?? Since when did Adrian have a step sister and she didn’t even know about it.

“And that is his step mother.” Hillary added as he motioned towards a woman in her late twenties.

“What the hell!! How’s that Adrian’s step mom?? She looks so young.” Ariel muttered as I stared at the gorgeous looking woman.

“That’s just how it is. I think Mr. William fancy younger women. Just don’t stare at him for too long.” Hillary muttered when he saw the man who looked like an older version of Adrian climb out of the car.

“Why??” Ariel asked.

“Who knows, he might take fancy in you and make you his third wife.” Hillary teased.

“Gross. Don’t ever say that again.” Ariel said as her nose scrunched up in disgust.

Adrian could hear all they were saying but he acted like he didn’t. It’s not like they were lying. His father and always been a womanizer and always went after women young enough to be his daughter. It was a very good thing he got to Ariel first.

Finally, Ariel could see someone that she was familiar with emerging from the car. It was Oliver, Adrian’s cousin. He walked closer to them, Ariel rather and conjoined their palms.

“Fancy meeting you again gorgeous.” He said with a smile and was about to place a kiss on her hand when Adrian snatched Ariel’s hand from his.

“You can greet her with placing your lips on her skin.” Adrian said.
