THE CRAZY BILLIONAIRE COUPLES - CHAPTER 12
🥀DDDR!!🥀
“I’m done battering words with this crazy lady”. Mr Ronaldo said getting up from his seat.
“See me in my study now”. Mr Ronaldo said to Stephen before going upstairs and Stephen sighed getting up.
“Don’t ki|| my brother, okay. He’s the only one in this world willing to marry your proud @zz”. Stephen said to Diana as he climbed the stairs and Diana took off her shoes, she was about to throw it at him when Leonardo held her back.
“Try to think before you act”. Leonardo cautioned but Diana freed herself from his grip, before going up the stairs.
“What did your annoying wife mean by my wife’s a pretender?! Does she think Leah acts super calm because she has a skeleton in her cupboard?…
“Everyone has a skeleton in their cupboard stop making it look like you married an angel”. Rancho scoffed, cutting Drake off.
“I’ll…I’ll be upstairs”. Leah mumbled nervously since things were getting intense and then she rushed up the stairs, while Rancho scoffed watching her.
“You’ve been acting really annoying lately”. Pablo smirked and Rancho stood up from his seat going upstairs.
“When do you plan on teaching your wife manners?”. Mrs Ronaldo who has been quiet all through asked Leonardo who also wanted to go up the stairs.
“Does it have to be learned…
“Of course it has to!! Look Leo! I can single handedly chase her out of my husband’s mansion and your life if she wasn’t so useful to you!”. Mrs Ronaldo snapped walking towards Leonardo as Drake and Pablo stared at the both of them in confusion.
“Who told you that?”. Leonardo asked, facing his mother with widened eyes.
“Useful to him how? Wait…is this fox trying to get more shares from the company through her influence?!”. Drake asked his mother as he glared at Leonardo.
“Then what would happen to we, your elder sons?! Does Dad want us to continue working under his shadow till we die?!”. Pablo said and Mrs Ronaldo rolled eyes at them.
“It’s nothing like that, so calm down you two”. Mrs Ronaldo said but Pablo and Drake didn’t stop glaring at Leonardo as they didn’t believe their mom.
“Tell me. How much do you know?”. Leonardo asked his mum in a serious low tone now and Mrs Ronaldo held his two shoulders.
“Nothing. But i know too well, that my trouble free son would never marry such a trouble maker even in his dreams unless it’s beyond him. Don’t worry Leo, I’m here for you and till you get what you want from that lady and divorce her, I won’t let her defy you ever! She’s got to bend to our rules, especially yours”. Mrs Ronaldo said to Leonardo.
“Just don’t get involved. That’s good enough”. Leonardo said before going up the stairs.
“I invited an etiquette lessons teacher over to train my daughter in laws in the way they should behave! Make sure Diana attends it. Tomorrow’s Saturday and I’m sure she doesn’t have work to go to!!”. Mrs Ronaldo yelled after Leonardo who was already out of sight.
“Leonardo married Diana just to use her right?”. Drake asked his mum.
“Make sure your driver brings Carl here early tomorrow morning. I miss my grandson already”. Mrs Ronaldo said before walking away.
“Leo’s definitely hiding something”. Pablo said.
“We shouldn’t worry about DD too much then. They’ll definitely be divorcing in months time and I’ll finally be able to ki|| her, with no hindrance”. Drake smirked and Pablo stared at him in shock.
“ki|| her? Hope you’ve gotten everything planned, cause it’s really impossible to target someone like her”. Pablo said and Drake frowned at him.
“What do you mean by that?”. Drake asked.
“She’s h@??d by everyone in the whole country, but you haven’t wondered why none of her h@??rs tried ki||ing her? C,mon Drake you’re smarter than this”. Pablo said standing up and leaving the dinning.
“Does she have someone mysteriously backing her up then?”. Drake muttered to himself.
<<MR RONALDO’S STUDY>>
“You want me to get married? Again with this talk? You see why I hardly visit”. Stephen frowned and Mr Ronaldo who sat relaxed opposite him gave hima deep glare.
“You’re too un serious and that was why i had to let Leonardo take your place even though he was the youngest!! I sent you to school to study business management but you went over there and wasted my money on political science!! Not to mention you made Rancho physics too!! I get how irresponsible you are, but making your brother follow in your footsteps is what i h@??!”. Mr Ronaldo snapped.
“At least Rancho’s doing fine!! He has tones of labs across the country that’s fetching him money. It’s not until he’s dressed in a suit to go to work before you know he’s working!”. Stephen said and Mr Ronaldo’s gaze on him darkened.
“Okay…what of you? Where in the senate house are you located?!! Which political office do you hold, Mr Man?! I have five sons but it’s all hopeless when the eldest leads the others astray!! All you do is drink and have fun all day in your d@mn ship!”. Mr Ronaldo yelled and Stephen broke into laughter.
“Why are you laughing?! Do I look funny to you?!”. Mr Ronaldo spat hotly.
“I know what you’re trying to do, old man? You wanted to make all of us competitive and that’s why you made Leo the CEO! But then, it’s no fun! And i don’t get involved in boring stuff, everyone has their lives okay? And it’ll really be shameful if I’m seen fighting with my brothers for a darn position, that won’t fetch me anything”. Stephen uttered and Mr Ronaldo threw a document on his desk at him.
“I’ve really wasted a huge amount of cash, sending you to school!! Look here!! Give me two days and I’ll find a very submissive lady for you! Someone who’ll always indulge you to always listen to me!”. Mr Ronaldo said and Drake smirked walking in.
“I know of someone suitable for him father”. Drake said and Stephen threw him a glare.
“Who said you could b*TT in?!”. Stephen snapped but instead Drake sat opposite him, facing their father.
“You remember the lady you chased the other time Pablo brought her to attend Leo’s wedding as his partner right?”. Drake asked and Mr Ronaldo frowned instantly.
“I h@?? to remember leeches like her. Leave if you have no one else to recommend for your brother as a wife”. Mr Ronaldo said gritting his teeth as he looked pissed, and Drake quickly shook his head.
“Chill Dad. I’m not talking about the lady you chased herself, I’m speaking of her younger sister…
“What difference would it make?! She’s a sister to a gold digger!!”. Mr Ronaldo yelled and Stephen threw Drake a glare.
“You’re crazy right. What part of mind your business don’t you understand!!?”. Stephen snapped.
“Her younger sister is worse than Leah in terms of respect. She’s the complete opposite of her older sister. She’s innocent and respective to a fault, easily trusts doesn’t even have a serious job. She’s a makeup artist and can stop when you tell her to, she’s also very cute and very fragile anyone can control her as they pleases, And to top it all, she’s just 19 years of age…..
Drake wasn’t done when Stephen stood up outraged.
“You realize I’m older than you with three years but you’re married to a twenty six years old! And now you’re here recommending a kid for me to get get married to?!!”. Stephen yelled out enraged.
“That kid’s your would be wife Stephen!! You’re a d@mn carefree and needs someone like her! I’m ready to buy her if possible. Especially the part that she’s respectful to a fault! I’m not ready to shoulder another Diana!! I want her to be my eyes and ears in your Casino!!…
“Father!!….
“Stephen! Get ready, she’ll be joining us for dinner tomorrow and might likely sleep in your room to pass the night”. Mr Ronaldo said loudly and Stephen’s eyes widened as he ran his hands through his hair.
“f-__-k! You both are so messed up!”. Stephen spat in rage, glaring at Drake who smirked at him, he left the study.
“What are you still doing here? Go contact the ?îtçh to be here tomorrow for dinner!”. Mr Ronaldo snapped at Drake.
“Oh. I’ll get to it”. Drake smiled before running out of the study.
<<SWIMMING POOL>>
Leonardo stood with his hands in his pockets he stared deep into the pool before him.
“Nice evening right?”. Leah asked walking to Leonardo who didn’t bother looking up as he stared deep into the pool.
“Seeing this pool now, brings back old memories”. Leah smiled facing Leo who’s gaze was still in the water.
“I remember falling into the pool at one of the school’s party. I thought i was gonna die but you magically jumped in and saved me”. Leah smiled returning her gaze to the pool as if everything that happened years back was playing in it.
“You fell cause you pushed someone…
“But you saved me anyways leaving the other girl to drown. And then we became so close and inseparable”. Leah said cutting Leonardo off.
Leonardo didn’t utter a word before walking away, going into the house.
“I was being thoughtless”. Leah said making Leonardo stop on his track, but he didn’t turn to face her.
“I really loved you back then but…
“Your greed took the best of you. Don’t try to talk me about what happened in the past again. I h@?? it”. Leonardo muttered before going into the mansion and Leah stared after him.
“Things just had to happen for the worse and I ended up having a bad luck”. Leah muttered staring into nothing this time around.
<<RHONDA’S HOUSE>>
“Wow!! So you told your dad about Rina and not me?! Like I’m not old enough to get married right?!!”. Rhonda snapped at Drake through the call.
“Stop it Rhonda you’re mine only and you know that”. Drake said through the call.
“Shut your d@mn hole you loser!! I’m yours but you’re married aren’t you?! Why shouldn’t I own my own man since I can’t have you to myself!!”. Rhonda yelled.
“Just let your sister marry my brother okay. Stephen’s nothing like a fairy tale prince he’s a very straight forward person! Though he’s playful at times but he’ll certainly h@?? your sister cause he h@??s when decisions are being made for him, that was the reason why he ran away from home. Especially now that he h@??s me alot but i was the one who chose a wife for him. So just count yourself lucky okay”. Drake said through the phone and Rhonda only rolled eyes at him.
“You can use her to uplift your status okay. Tell her to be at the mansion before 7pm tomorrow evening. My parents wants to see her, to finalize everything”. Drake said cutting the call and Rhonda’s eyes widened.
“So fast?! Now the ?îtçh’s gonna get married before me too?!”. Rhonda screamed smashing her phone to the ground.
“At least I’m her only family member. I’ll sure demand a huge amount for her bride price”. Rhonda said to herself breaking into a hysterical laughter and that was when Rina slowly walked in.
“Good evening Big Sis…
“Wow you finally remembered me and this house. I thought you’d still be cruising around with my clients”. Rhonda scoffed and Rina bit her lower lip, standing at the same spot.
“Come here”. Rhonda said and Rina went to her.
“How old are you?”. Rhonda asked.
“I clocked 19 two months ago”. Rina said and Rhonda smiled.
“Good. Then you’re old enough to get married”. Rhonda said and Rina’s eyes widened.
“Huh?!”. She mumbled out in confusion.
“We’re gonna charge two billion for your bride price. You’ll be getting married to their billionaire eldest son so it’s even cheap. To think you’ll be the lady of that huge casino on the deep blue sea! I can’t be more proud….
“Big Sis”. Rina called fearfully and Rhonda frowned facing her.
“What’s with the face? You’ll be getting married soon, do you think you’re still a kid?! And yes! Quit that your makeup job the groom’s family h@??s it….
“But i only just got a job at stars entertainment”. Rina said with glassy eyes and her heart beating loudly while Rhonda’s eyes widened.
“Really? How’s that?”. Rhonda asked shockingly.
“Grey…recommended me to…
“He did?!! But I’ve been working for him for years and he didn’t recommend me!!”. Rhonda screamed, pushing Rina roughly to the ground and she fell down in tears.
“Hey!! You’re just an orphan who my parents took in at the age of three from the orphanage okay!! The reason why they’re dead now is because of you and you promised me you would find a way to pay them back! I’ve taken care of you enough!! It’s time for you to return the favor! Get married to the Ronaldo’s eldest son and refund me both the money my parents spent in raising you and the money I spent on you also! It’s that easy!!”. Rhonda snapped hotly and Rina’s eyes widened.
“The…Ronaldo’s eldest son? Big Sis…please reconsider I can’t marry into that family, I’ve heard countless news about them and it’s not pleasant at all”. Rina cried, going on her knees and Rhonda broke into laughter.
“You’re also not pleasant to look at. But I still took care of you. We’re going shopping first thing in the morning and you’ll be at their mansion tomorrow before 7pm”. Rhonda uttered glaring at Rina before she walked out.
“I only just started having makeup deals and they want me to end it? I should have just stayed back at the hostel”. Rina mumbled crying more.
<<THE RONALDO’S MANSION>>
After staying in the study for sometime, Leonardo walked into the room, only to see Diana in front of her beauty mirror, as she used the face wipes on her face.
She had a very black short armless night gown that barely covered half of her laps.
Leonardo ignored her going to the bed to lie down.
“The floor”. Diana said facing him and Leonardo gave her a raised eyebrow.
“I said you’re sleeping on the floor, probably you sleep out of the room”. Diana said and Leonardo scoffed.
“This is my room to begin with. So why the hell must I sleep on the floor and not on the bed…
“Cause her royal highness would love to have the bed to herself!”. Diana snapped and Leonardo broke into laughter for the first in front of Diana and she threw him a glare.
“I look funny to you?! The same way you made everyone see me as a mad woman at the dining room!!”. Diana glared and Leonardo sighed staring at her.
“You’re the one who called yourself mad! No one called you that….
Leonardo was interrupted when Diana quickly jumped on the bed, spreading her legs and hands wide to occupy the huge bed, she seized the duvet also, using it for only herself.
“d@mn, you’re so cunning”. Leonardo scoffed and Diana smirked at him, sleeping on her chest to spread her hands wider.
But unfortunately Leonardo grabbed her by the leg, yanking her off the bed to the floor and she landed on her b*tt, while he instantly layed on the bed.
Diana stood up in rage grabbing Leonardo’s leg also but he was too strong so she was unable to push him, instead he kicked her and she landed back on the floor.
“Ahh!! Leo get up from my bed this instant!!”. Diana screamed at him, getting up again.
“You were forming a boss lady back at the office, how come you’re so powerless”. Leonardo scoffed.
“Powerless. Okay then”. Diana sighed, tieing her long hair up as she glared at Leonardo.
“Woah, she’s angry! I’m scared!!”. Leonardo uttered sarcastically and before he could blink Diana already pounced on him on the bed, elbowing him right on the chest and he began coughing madly.
“f-__-k! Do you want to ki|| me?!”. Leonardo let out as he coughed out even more.
“You called me powerless didn’t you? Too bad your Claire isn’t here to take care of you”. Diana smirked standing up from the bed as she watched Leonardo almost cough out his intestine.
“Give me water”. Leonardo said as he recklessly kept turning from one side to the other on the bed.
“No. You’re stubborn right? Just die and let me have this bed to myself”. Diana said and Leonardo’s cough worsened, while she only rolled eyes at him.
“Leo? Are you alright? Is Diana not in?”. Leah called from the door and Diana frowned, picking up her scissors and going to the door.
“What’s your problem?”. Diana glared.
“I…Leonardo’s coughing in there….
“So? f-__-k off if you don’t want me stabbing you”. Diana glared.
“I brought him a glass of water through. But I’ll leave since you…
“Give it to me!”. Diana said and Leah instantly gave her the water.
“Now run along”. Diana uttered before shutting the door lock.
She walked to Leonardo glaring at him on the bed.
“Open your mouth”. Diana frowned and Leonardo instantly did.
But instead of pouring the water in Leonardo’s mouth, Diana poured half on his face, especially his eyes, then the rest on the chest she had earlier elbowed him, then she dropped the empty cup on the table beside him.
“Now It’s confirmed you’re a witch”. Leonardo glared finally getting himself.
“Is that your thank you?!!”. Diana yelled at Leonardo and immediately he stood storming to her.
Diana turned to run out of the room but Leonardo was fast to grab her by the wrist pinning her two hands behind her back with one of his hands. He held her neck with the other hand, but he made sure not to tighten his grip on her neck so as not to choke her.
“Let go of me! You see why I didn’t want to help you…
“Help me!? Diana, did you help or punish me?!”. Leonardo questioned bringing her face closer to his.
“My hands are hurting. I don’t want to ki|| you finally so just leave me if you want to survive okay!!!”. Diana yelled and Leonardo laughed.
“You don’t even know how to beg. Seriously?”. Leonardo scoffed and Diana instead of replying began crying and Leonardo’s eyes widened as she shed real tears.
“I told you my hands were hurting me, but you wouldn’t listen! Now my neck is also. Everyone h@??s me including my own husband”. Diana wailed and Leonardo immediately let go of her.
“How do you feel now?”. Leonardo asked in a more calm tone as Diana tried catching her breath.
“I..want to go outside. This place is too choked up. Could you please lead the way?”. Diana begged nicely for the first time in her life and Leonardo instantly nodded, opening the door Diana didn’t even let him finish before kicking him on the b*tt and pushing him outside.
Immediately he was out, Diana shut the door, locking it with multiple locks.
And then she began laughing madly like a witch.
“Diana!! Diana!! Open this d@mn door!!”. Leonardo yelled, banging the door from outside.
“I’m a lady of my word. I told you, it’s either you sleep on the floor or you sleep outside! So now just sleep outside okay”. Diana said with a smirk and Leonardo scoffed.
“I should have known. You’re a d@mn snake! You’re never nice and never beg!..
“But you still fell for it!!”. Diana laughed.
“Just let me in okay. If any of my parents find out, they’re gonna nag a lot and I h@?? it….
“Tell me. I’m sorry your royal highness and I’ll allow you to come sleep on the floor over here, I also won’t want to disgrace my husband outside”. Diana said, faking sincerity.
“What?! Your royal highness? It’s best I sleep here then!…
“Good!! Do that…
“Just know that you’re dead in the morning!”. Leonardo thr_@tened.
“You can’t touch me! I’m DD!!..
“You mean DR!”. Leonardo cut her off, obviously pissed…
