BILLIONAIRE'S OBSESSION - CHAPTER 1&2

The peaceful state of California was brewing with activities,in the city of Los Angeles were people were going about there normal business,a girl laid sprawled on the bed fast asleep,the sunlight peeking slowly through the curtains.

Knock!knock!

The man at the door sighed softly before walking back downstairs after receiving a silent response.

Loretta stood up immediately she saw her father walking down the stairs,she stood anxiously waiting for answers.” Dad were you able to tell her “.

“I couldn’t, she’s still fast asleep”Mr Enoch mumbled softly his eyes filled with coldness making her flinch.

” But dad we have to tell her or else ? Loretta didn’t complete her sentences when she got a harsh glance from her father.

” I have had enough of your nonsense Loretta, Erica is your sister she had always loved you but you dare to go behind her back to try to steal her fiance are you even human”.

“…”
Loretta kept mute with shame her cheek having a small shade of red as she gritted her teeth.

” Why was it that ,Erica always had the best,she was the eldest for crying out loud,just why”. Loretta gritted her teeth in anger speaking meekly.

” Father you can’t blame me,you know I love him right…I…”

” Enough “Mr Enoch snapped furiously pointing at her in the face”if you want to get together with him, better take it low, because if in the presence of doing so you hurt Erica ,you will have to answer from me “.Saying his piece,he walked towards his room with fast steps leaving Loretta with a gloomy face as she gave a hard stare at the stairs before snorting and returning to her room.

” Isn’t it just taking Benjamin away ,I will let her shed tears wiping those smug face off those faces of her’s”Loretta vowed with determination.

…

Erica woke up soon after , stretching and yawning tiredly,her brown locks were messy,she looked around her room and saw scattered papers filled with draft, several disposable papers of caffeine powder,before using her hand to cover her face.

” Gosh,so troublesome”Erica bounce off bed, dashing for the bathroom to take a shower and shake off her fatigue,her phone chimed with a messages which went unnoticed as it was on silent.

“Ah,so refreshing”Erica walked out of the bathroom in a green bathrobe towards her closet to get dressed in a simple pair flare gown she recently sew, coupling it with a black flat shoes,and packing her hair in a ponytail.

” Time to work”she quickly placed the drafts in the drawer clearing up the messy table, picking up her bag and phone,she walked outside to call one of the maids to help clean her room before walking out of the house,she didn’t see her father nor her elder sister which was strange but she didn’t put any thought to it.

” Boss”Matthew salute respectfully to the cold looking man who entered the room fully,a white fur coat drapped on his shirt to make him look more cold looking.

” Any luck?.

” He won’t burge boss,he’s a strong one ,he even tried to bite off his tongue but we stopped him”.

” Huh,how boring let’s lighten up the mood shall we”the man smirked coldly.” Shadow deal with him”he order and a man dressed in black clothes step out from behind him walking to the tied up man giving him a punch making him Mõ@? as his mouth was gagged.

“Mmmh”another painful muffled sound was heard earning a mockery look from him.

” Seriously I thought you guys had the gut,guess I was wrong,let him speak”.

Matthew moved forward and removed the stuff socks from the man’s mouth,he gasped shakily his body trembling as he coughed heavily.

” So are you speaking or not or do you want another punch”.

” I will talk…I will talk!!!
The man whispered yelled,the man smile faintly.”I thought as much”.

Matthew bought in a chair and he sat down crossing his legs on his other one ,his two guards standing behind him.

” So start talking,who sent you to infrate my territory”.He asked playing with his fingers.

” I…I..it was….Morgan”the man said falling weakly on the floor,the room turned colder,as the man’s green eyes stared down at him.

” Morgan you say, hehehe”he chuckled darkly making eye contact with Matthew.” Get rid of him”.

” Yes boss”
Matthew replied grabbing the man by the neck and stabbing a knife in his throat,he struggled before breathing is last.

” This young master of his sure had the Feisty tongue “.

“Ehmm sorry about that young master,but you have a call from the Eragon’s “.
