THE CRAZY BILLIONAIRE COUPLES - CHAPTER 66&67
🥀BROKEN🥀
<LEO’S PENTHOUSE>
It was raining madly at 9am in that same morning when Diana woke up and noticed Leo wasn’t sleeping next to her on the bed.
She touched his side of his bed to be sure if she wasn’t just hallucinating his absence.
Like it was raining and he was supposed to even sleep more cause of the dark cold whether.
The cloud was a bit dark instead of remitting a shining sun and even the mansion was strangely also not dark enough to blur your vision but dark enough for one to ask if there wasn’t electric power in the house.
“Leo?”. Diana sat up on the bed when she saw the door opened and the old lady walked in with a tray of food making her eyes widened in shock.
“What are you doing here?!”. Diana questioned getting her phone to phone the security and it was already going when..
“Aren’t i supposed to be here your majesty Mrs? I thought you’d be hungry and brought you food”. Nadia said as she watched Diana in puzzlement then she dropped the food tray on the bed stand.
Diana glanced closely at her and concluded that she had seen wrong.
“Where’s my husband?”. Diana asked getting down from the bed, ignoring the food she faced Nadia for an answer.
“He’s…he went to work he’ll soon beb back”. Nadia answered not battering an eyelid and Diana phoned Leo but he wasn’t picking.
“His line’s not going. You didn’t lie to me did you?”. Diana said walking into her dressing room to put on something only to meet Leo’s phone on the floor their ringing in silent.
“He forgot his phone?”. Diana asked suspiciously as she picked up the phone staring at it and then a lightening striked outside followed immediately by a loud thunder and she flinched in fear a little before walking to the wall and putting on the sound proof.
“The weather forecast said nothing about a heavy rain this morning, what’s with this frightening one”. Diana screamed as her fingers shaked a little then Nadia walked in.
“Are you okay? We the maids are at our annex would you like to join us over there? We don’t usually stay at the main mansion once it’s raining…
“What does that got to do with me?”. Diana sneered as she tried to stay calm even though she and the rain has had a huge grudge for years.
“We promise to keep quiet all through your stay with us…
“Why isn’t there any d@mn electricity over here?!”. Diana screamed when another thunder pounded and the heavy rain tripled.
“It goes off automatically once it starts raining!”. Nadia screamed at the top of her voice so Diana could hear her and still in her night robe Diana rushed out of the dressing, going out of the bedroom she made her way to Leo’s study.
“He’s supposed to have a switch over here”. Diana muttered adjusting her hair as she looked around for and found a general light switch at the back of the study. She wasted no time in switching it on but Nadia instantly ran to switch it back on.
“What’s your problem?!”. Diana snapped going to put on the lights but Nadia held her back.
“Please ma’am just wait till the rain stops…
“But every where’s too dark?!”. Diana screamed as she aprroached the switch again.
“The…the boss is upstairs the last room in the floor”. Nadia stuttered hoping it would divert Diana’s attention.
“Leo’s upstairs? Which upstairs isn’t this the last floor?”. Diana asked walking straight to Nadia who led her outside of his study locking the door she faced Diana.
“Come with me”. Nadia said and Diana blinked in puzzlement as she followed Nadia who walked down the hallway till they came to a dead end of walls and Diana rolled eyes at her.
“What are we doing here…
Diana was interrupted when Nadia twisted something on the wall and it opened into an elevator immediately.
“The hell?”. Diana gasped as she watched Nadia go in and bellow at her to come in also and she did.
Then the elevator took them to the top floor and Diana began ran straight to the last room’s door bardging in instantly.
“Leo! Leo!!”. Diana called out searching round the room only to see a trail of blood blood on the floor beside the bed and she clenched her fist in fear.
“Leo”. She muttered hoping it wasn’t his blood as she followed the trail only to see him by the side of the bed facing the closed windows.
He’s bloody hands bulging with veins holding his chest tightly as he coughed out blood and her eyes widened.
“Leo!!”. Diana screamed rushing to him on the floor and even though he was in pains he still had a shocked look in his eyes when he saw her.
He was even putting on the hoodie and black short she saw him wore the first time she broke into his penthouse.
“Ana”. He whispered and Diana hugged him tight.
“She almost put on the lights. I had no choice”. Nadia muttered guiltily standing behind Diana.
“Take her back”. Leonardo muttered breaking the hug with Diana but she held him tight, part of her face were already stained with blood.
“No! I’m not going anywhere Leo! You’re dying what’s wrong with you?!!”. Diana shouted holding his face in her palms almost in tears.
“I’ll be fine don’t worry…
The rest of his words got lost when the thunder struck again and he began coughing out even more blood frightening Diana as a tear finally escaped her eyes and like that her tears kept overflowing as she watched him cough out more then she hugged him tight wailing in tears hoping he would stop but he only restlessly broke the hug and continued.
“Nadia call the hospital now!”. Diana screamed and when Nadia didn’t move but instead had a sad look on her face Diana brought out her phone instead making to dial the family hospital’s line but Leo’s bloody hands held hers.
“They can’t do anything Ana. I promise I’ll be fine”. Leonardo muttered his glassy green eyes looking into her teary eyes.
“Go with Nadia I’ll be fine”. Leonardo whispered and Diana shook her head holding him tight.
“No! I’m not leaving you! Don’t push me away please!!”. She cried resting her head on his shoulder crying loudly and he brought his hands to her hair to pat it while Nadia excused them.
“Stop crying I’m not dead”. Leo muttered bringing his face to kiss her forehead slightly.
“Don’t tell me that”. Diana mumbled as she continued while Leo tried so hard to stop himself from coughing again but he couldn’t and soon he added to the pool of blood on the floor.
<THE RONALDO’S MANSION>
(11:30am)
Stacy stared at Leo’s message for the upteemth time. It was finally today.
Thinking she would use the heavy rain as an excuse not to show up for the curse breakage the weather had to disappoint and right now the sun was shining even more prettier than ever.
She couldn’t wait but also couldn’t believe that after what ever stuff the old lady would do to her she would loose every memory she had while living as his wife. Does that mean she’ll forget ever knowing Rancho also?
“Not like he gave me a little attention. I’m too pretty to waste my time on that ungrateful fellow”. She said with a frown on her face before going into her dressing room.
Packing all of her stuffs into her luggages and leaving the room in a white crop top and black short pencil skirt.
Now she phoned her driver to come pick her stuffs up while she dialed Leo’s line in order for him to send the address of where they would end everything.
“Are you finally reasoning? My sons didn’t give you enough attention so you decided to leave right?”. Mrs Ronaldo smirked and Stacy rolled eyes at her.
“If i wanted to! I would have stayed and made life unbearable for your so called sons who made me feel like nothing! But…what difference would it make? I promised to change after highschool so no one can make me break that promise”. Stacy said trying Leo’s line again.
“I love that you’re so outspoken and I don’t h@?? you. What if I give you my Pablo…
“Why? You want me to help his dead career? The same forgottenstupid son of yours? No way, I’m too much of a godddess for his wretched @zz”. Stacy smirked and Mrs Ronaldo glared at her.
“It’s no wonder Rancho doesn’t even spare you a glance. You have a sharp tongue…
Mrs Ronaldo was interrupted by Stacy’s ringing tone. It was Leo calling her and she smiled facing Mrs Ronaldo.
“I hope we never have to chat again. You have a bad mouth breath”. Stacy winked at Mrs Ronaldo picking the call as she got into her car and driving out of the mansion.
Rancho stood right at the front door as with his hands in his pocket he watched her car drive away.
<LEONARDO’S PENTHOUSE>
Diana’s eyes flipped open seeing she was back in their room and unlike earlier the room was brightened with the morning sun and the electricity had been restored with lights dazzling from the chandelier.
Leonardo wasn’t present again and she stood up immediately rushing out of the room down the stairs only to see the maids going about their activities like nothing had happened and Nadia walked to her with a smile on her face.
“The boss really went out this time around. Lunch is ready would you like to be served now?”. Nadia asked.
“Is Leo with his phone?”. Diana asked a worried look on her face.
“Yes my lady”. Nadia replied and Diana turned going back upstairs and returning into the room.
She dialed his number as she looked into the mirror only to realize that she wasn’t in her bloody night robe anymore. She was now in a cream coulored slim gown.
“Is he alright? Why isn’t he picking up?”. She mumbled to herself chewing on her pedicured nails. Then she sat on the bed.
<UNKNOWN FOREST>
“You’re both a minute late”. The old lady rolled her horror eyes as Leo and Stacy approached her.
She was standing in her circle of leaves and stones which she picked from the forest ground.
“I told you bring your second wife. Not a doll”. The old lady scoffed and Stacy’s eyes widened turning to face Leo who hinted at her to ignore the lady then she grumpily kept quiet.
“Come into this circle now”. The old lady instructed and Leo walked in straight while Stacy still stood back.
“Oh hell no I’m walking into that! The 100million you paid me to put up with this is nothing compared to all this witch craft!”. Stacy snapped fearfully and the old lady faced Leo.
“You paid her 100million just to act like a doll for a week and you complain each time i take some change from you!”. The old lady snapped at Leo.
“Calculate all those change then and tell me if it wouldn’t surpass the one I paid her”. Leo said and the old lady smirked at him.
“Ungrateful thing! Don’t worry! I’ll pay you back just how you want it!”. She snapped and Leo just rolled eyes at her while Stacy quickly jumped into the circle.
“He angered you please don’t vent it on me! I’m ready to stand anywhere you want”. Stacy said and the old lady walked to her giving her a pink hairband which she took while Leo frowned.
“We’ll be binding evil with that thing in your hand…
The old lady wasn’t done talking when Stacy screamed throwing the band to the ground.
“Where did you pick this fish from?!”. The old lady questioned Leo as she frowned at Stacy.
“Where did you instruct me to pick her from?”. Leo replied curtly and the old lady’s gaze directed at him..
“You’re the worst of all my clients! Imagine replying me face to face without shuddering in fear…
“Can we just get this whole $h|t over with?! I didn’t pay you enough to rush you! I have someone waiting impatiently for me!”. Leonardo snapped impatiently and Stacy rolled eyes at him knowing who his someone was.
“Pick that hair packer up or I turn you into one”. The old lady ordered Stacy who quickly did as she was told.
“One of hand should be locked with your husband’s and squeeze the hair band in your other hand”. The old lady instructed and Stacy and Leo held hands while Stacy fearfully squeezed the band in her other hand. Then the old lady began reciting a chant being the shaman she was.
“Can’t believe I’m doing this in DD’s place!!”. She screamed shutting her eyes closed incase any evil spirit really appeared.
“Now the real fight is about to begin”. The old lady’s voice came the moment she finished reciting the chant and Stacy already began shaking while Leo stood un bothered still not believing any crap the old lady was putting them through.
“Now before the spirit arrive you must cut the hair band together at the count of three!!”. The old lady said and Stacy panicked as she and Leo held the hair packer ready to cut it with one hand while their other hands were still locked.
“One…two..go!”. The old lady shouted and with most of Leo’s strength the hair band cut.
“The curse has been broken!!!”. The old lady screamed out and Leo gazed at her in shock.
“What do you mean by that? Didn’t you mention evil spirits? Where are they?!”. Leo snapped approaching the lady who disappeared and appeared behind him laughing loudly.
“Hey! You should be happy you were cursed by a teenager okay! That was why it was so easy to break! We just had to find one of the stuffs she wore that day she cursed you. So be happy it worked”. The old lady yelled excitedly.
“If that was the case then all these stones and leaves you made in a circle are for what?!! And my money i almost paid you a billion dollars just to destroy a hair band?! You d@mn old scammer!!”. Leo shouted going after the lady again but she disappeared and appeared behind him again.
“You stingy big head!!! You think the hairband was easy to find?! I had to beg a stupid kid to get it from the dump site for me! Leave now or i shall place a more greater curse on you!!”. The old lady snapped and Leo snapped unzipping his jacket and throwing it to the ground.
“There’s no way I’m leaving without you proving to me that the curse is really broken!! d@mn! I shouldn’t have listened to Kingston!”. Leo spat and the old lady smirked at him bringing out two cards from her dirty pocket she threw it to the sky and it suddenly began raining heavily but nothing happened to him as it used to.
“Happy now? You’re owing me 50 thousand dollars for requesting for prove”. The old lady smiled stopping the rain and stretching out her palm at Leo to receive the money.
“Oh yea! Money. I have it right in my pocket come take it”. Leo said dipping his hand into his pocket and the old lady smiled appearing to him immediately and he instantly gripped her neck before she disappeared again.
“That’s the only language you understand. You delayed me for months just to call me out of the blue to cut a hair band?!”. Leo gasped and the old lady bit his hand then she disappeared when he freed her and he grinned in annoyance.
“Should i be happy I don’t have a grandma? Gosh that lady!”. Leo sighed out picking up his jacket and then realization hit him when he remembered Stacy wasn’t present with him again.
“She’s probably at a photo$h00t somewhere. I told you she’ll go back to the days when you were both strangers”. The old lady said suddenly appearing before him.
“I told you I have a free present for your rude attitude. Do you want me to show you?”. The old lady smiled walking closely to Leo.
“I was only rude cause you deserved it. But either ways thanks and i hope we never meet again”. Leonardo muttered walking passed her.
“Mariana Donald. Does that name ring a bell?”. The old lady uttered and Leo stopped on his track turning to face her.
Then with a few tricks the old lady created a screen made from breeze and no frame appear before him.
“Watch and you’ll understand why, how and who cursed you. And it’s all free now you see I don’t charge much”. The old lady said standing behind Leo whose eyes was now fixed on the screen.
INSIDE THE SCREEN>
9 YEARS AGO>
“Leo just this once huh? I’m your girlfriend afterall f-__-king me isn’t a sin”. Leah said shaking Leo’s hand as they walked into the frat house where the pool party would be taking place in.
“Woah! Leonardo Ronaldo?! In my pool party! I’m so honored!!”. The host said loudly approaching Leo with his girlfriend Brielle standing right next to him and everyone at the party screamed.
Everyone in the party except Leo where in shorts(For boys) and exposive bikinis(For girls)
They were drinking, dancing and even s..xing at every corner of the party and the supposed pool was filled with lots of immoral acts making Leo scrunch his face in disgust.
“You’re just a junior but got invited into a place like this?”. Leonardo asked ignoring the host who still stood in front of him.
“Well that’s why I begged you to come with me right. And I’ve even booked a private room for us. You’ll have no choice than to…you know”. Leah winked seductively and Leo sighed adjusting his jacket on her.
“Leah”. Bella called from behind Leah she was also just arriving to the party with her friends.
“Hey girls!!”. Leah smiled widely rushing to hug Stacy who was the most beautiful amongst them all ignoring Bella that called her.
“Is everything ready?”. Leah whispered into Stacy’s ear and Bella and Anabel rolled eyes at them.
“Yea we called the ?îtçh. She’ll be here soon”. Stacy replied with a smile breaking the hug.
“I have change of plans though”. Leah muttered.
“If it’s more exciting then I’m in!”. Stacy replied and Leah giggled happily annoying Stacy’s friends more.
“I don’t need it any longer”. Leah said taking off the jacket and throwing it to Leo and before he could speak she walked away with the girls her small exposed @zz dangling behind her as she walked.
“I’ll take it”. Mariana said collecting Leo’s jacket and tying it around her waist and Leo glanced at her her beauty immediately sweeping him off his feet and it dawned on him that he wasn’t the only one everyone else was staring and drooling at the same time.
“You…came…here too”. Leo muttered and she nodded.
“Stacy told me we can patch things up here. I can’t wait!”. Mariana replied smiling prettily and Leonardo was lost for a second staring at how her blue swimsuit fitted her perfect shape and he wished she didn’t cover up her lower body with his jacket before speaking.
“The same Stacy who leaked that video about you licking her feet..
“She apologized already…
“Was it sincere? You cried a lot remember? Don’t let her fool you with her pretense it’s obvious she’ll never like you”. Leonardo said.
“This is why i h@?? talking to you! You’re never positive for me!”. Mariana frowned walking away from him and his gaze followed her.
“Go then! And you think I’ll console you when you come crying again?!”. Leonardo said after Mariana who was already gone into crowd.
Leo’s eyes widened as he watched.
“How come I didn’t recognize her? f-__-k Diana is…Mariana?”. Leonardo muttered in shock as he gazed at the playing screen..
