CHAPTER FIFTY NINE

CLARA'S POV

We walked into the board meeting and the moment the staff saw Adrian they stood up and worshipped him like a king. Their eyes turned to the strange looking face before them.

That's me, but I knew the staff should have known me for the publicity on social media. “Good day, boss. We've been waiting for you for a long while.” She voiced, instantly memories of this morning flashed.

    CHAPTER SIXTY NINE ADRIAN'S POVWe rushed into the court, my eyes covered with a dark shades. Minutes later, the hearing kicked off with the judge centred at the front of the court. The investors sat opposite us, they looked at us as I entered the sit.“Who's that lady with him?” One of them questioned, their voice sounded disgusted. “Probably she's the one we always see him with. That lady isn't good for me Adrian.” He suggested, whispering to his colleagues.“Ever since the billionaire started following that lady, he has been kind of distracted.” The rest of them murmured in agreement, could they be right? I scanned Clara repeatedly.That's not true, she doesn't have anything to do with what is happening in my life. Instead she has been a pillar since all this occurrence.“Adrian are falling for the lady?” That question rang repeatedly. That's not possible especially falling for a slut that I ended up with because of a one night stand.“The court hearing is about to start.” The jud

    CHAPTER SIXTY EIGHT NORA'S POV “I was looking for you everywhere.” A soft voice echoed in the vicinity. It was Nora Vennet, how did she know my hiding spot.“Who told you I was here?” I questioned, scanning the shallow sea. “Your bestfriend told me about it.” I lied, my eyes scanned his full height.I hope he believes me. Adrian doesn't know I have full background information about his life from his hobbies to everything he dislikes.“You shouldn't have come here. I needed a fresh air to breath that's free from humans.” his voice was cold. Instantly I knew this man was going through a extremely though situation.And I caused it…I didn't know wether my father would be happy I caused someone so much pain. My father always says I should avoid any form of activities that causes hurt to anyone.“I wish I can help.” I muttered, holding his hands trying to compensate for my evil deed. I was really falling for the same man I laid a trap for.“Nothing can be done.” He heaved heavily. “We jus

    CHAPTER SIXTY SEVEN ADRIAN'S POVBeing in the bad book of my Italian investors was one thing I have avoided only for everything to get ruined. Morning rushed so fast like it knew I had a lot to settle.“Doctor, I want to leave here now.” I ordered, instantly he clamped the drip. “You're more better than tomorrow, I would advice you stay for few days.” He suggested.“Stay?”“I should stay here while my years of hard work are at stake.” His jaws clenched. All the doctors turned and observed him slightly.“Mr Adrian,” paused. “We would let you go but promise to cut down anything alcohol for the main time.” A young doctor voiced, I could see the seriousness in his face.“Noted, I just need to leave this walls immediately. I'm going to make sure I take the vitamins and drugs.” I promised, they removed the monitors and accesses from my hands.She walked into the hospital with a basket of fruit while on her other hand was a food pack. “Good morning, Mr Adrian.” She greeted. “How's your bod

    CHAPTER SIXTY SIXCLARA'S POV “Get out of my front before I clench your jaw!” His voice echoed through the wall, my body shivered with goosebumps. While my pulse raised uncontrollably.I moved out of their way. He switched on the television, and the national news was worse than I thought. “John, my company name is being tarnished and you guys said I should rest.” John drew closer to him with his hands folded. My brother's life first, I'm still working on resolving that issue, it seems the Italian people don't overlook things.“What do we know?” He asked, they both looked at each other. “Fix an open dialogue in the conference room tomorrow. Let's see if we can resolve this cordially.” Adrian suggested. Instantly John walked out of the room with his phone next to his ear.The atmosphere became cold and Mira was already lying down on the couch. “Mr Adrian, please I was to visit a place today.” I said asking for permission, he nodded his head in agreement.I scanned the atmosphere to en

    CHAPTER SIXTY FIVECLARA'S POV “I'm his wife,” I replied, John turned to me, sending a dangerous look. “Your husband had a really severe fever and cold due to the heavy drinking.” My eyes widely opened. “Because of that he developed pneumonia that has to be managed immediately.” I stood still really confused, what do I know about disease conditions? The only place I could play around was in the kitchen.“What’s pneumonia?” I questioned. “Follow me to my office.” He commanded. The moment we entered his office he breathed heavily.“Mr Adrian's condition is more critical than we thought, he has been going through burnout for a while. Coping with the load of alcohol in his body has made him develop pneumonia.” He explained. “Does that mean he won't get better?” I asked, breathing heavily.“He would but with constant monitoring.

    CHAPTER SIXTY FOUR CLARA'S POV His weight landed on my chest and the whole atmosphere was wrecked with the smell of liquor. I helped him to his room and the moment I was about to leave he held my hands.“Please don't leave me today,” he pleaded, I felt pity for him. I didn't know my actions could break the billionaire this much. Father would be happy wherever he was while my Foster father would throw a party.He flipped the phone over to me and showed me the video. The British investors sounded so ruthless in the video.“What happened to the project?” I asked cluelessly. He turned to my face and stared at me deeply, my hands shivered profusely.“You want to know what happened? There's no need! Just know that my name was ruined before the international TV.” He said.I felt so much pity for him because I have never seen Adrian this devastated. “My chef served them sugary food and the decorations collapsed in between the celebration.” He murmured.“How could that happen?
