Billionaire Ascendancy

And just as she was about to count up to ‘five’ her phone rang. Causing the scenes to be interrupted at the moment because she can’t answer the call in front of them. It was her husband that was calling. Morgan gives her a dangerous gaze before walking away. “Ma’am does this mean that she has forgiven me?” Raven asks, feeling anxious to know her next move. “Maybe! Let’s just hope she won’t remind me of this. You can leave now”. Said by the female principals who said down anxious hoping she won’t receive any call from Morgan later.

In the gargantuan luxurious house, a figure could be seen sitting at the backyard with a cigarette puffing out of his mouth. Close to him was a bottle of (Black label) and a glass cup which he had taken alongside with him before coming to the backyard

“I know she’s you Raven! I know you’re the one. But why are you doing this to me? Why are you denying yourself?” He solitude to himself while trying to prevent himself from crying. He misses her really crazy and wishes she was Morgan who he later ends up with. “I know I did you wrong but you were the cause of everything Raven! If you hadn’t divorce me this couldn’t have happened. You look down on me. You’ll look down on me because you thought I was poor”. He cries out while sipping a drink from the glass cup. His intention was to forget all about her. He hopes with what he’s planning to do, he’ll forget all about her.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“Honey, what are you doing here?” A familiar voice echoes through his ears as he turns around with his blurry eyes only to see his wife looking at him with confusion. “!!!!” He screams out anxiously while trying to hide the cigarette in mortification before she will come to conclusions. “And who’s this Raven you’ve been screaming her name? Is she your Ex wife?” Stefan heaves out a sigh of relief while looking at her. “She is! Do you have a problem with that?” He questioned with a serious gaze that could make her blood pressure raise at the moment.

“Do you still love her? You still have feelings for her don’t you? I’ve been observing you for some time now. You’ve been lost lately and now I know the reason”. Morgan was indeed pained to see him reacting this way. Ever since they’ve been together it was only three times they’ve slept together and that was for her to conceive after that he’s been avoiding her like a plague and even when (Mateo) has grown up. “So you called me here just to witness this don’t you?” Morgan was really disappointed. The only thing she could do was to turn back and walk away. Although she regrets marrying him upon knowing that he doesn’t love her, she knows it’s all for the best. By the time her plan had succeeded Mateo will claim his company and that’s when she’ll reveal his true identity.

“Get hold of yourself Stefan! You can’t be going crazy because of her. She doesn’t even know if you existed. What if the person you saw wasn’t her?” A thought came to his mind as he sighed. He stood up and grabbed the bottle of the black label then walked away. He lay on his mind slowly having difficulties to forget all about Raven. He was about to drift into sleep when his phone rang, causing his sleep to be interrupted. When he checked the number, it was unknown so he thought it might be a business call so he picked the call immediately but his expectations came down the moment he heard the person’s voice and regretted why he had picked the call in the first place.

“I know you’re angry at me Stefan but please hear me out “. Ava Williams who was on the call with him pleaded out knowing that he will end the call at any moment. “I have no business with you Ava. Our business ended the moment you spoiled my and Raven’s relationship. I’m sure you have been rewarded for doing that. Goodbye……!!!! “Wait, this is about Raven”. Just as he was about to end the call, she spoke out hurriedly.

At this moment, his mind calmed down immediately. “You have only thirty seconds to spit out the nonsense you’re about to utter from your mouth”. He stated impatiently. “Thank you for giving me time to explain myself. I’ve been ill for a while and I’m currently in the hospital so I don’t know if I’ll make it out or not but I just want to let you know this “. She started and paused, keeping Stefan suspicious to hear what she had to say.

“I don’t know if she tells you this but I noticed that Raven was pregnant the day we Kidnapped her and I’m certain that pregnancy might have been yours since you guys have been together a couple of times”. The call came to an end immediately as Stefan just freaked out. He was shocked and frozen for a while before recovering himself.

“What? What just happened! She was really pregnant?” Stefan chorus out like a mad man. Finding this surprising and at the same time exciting. Knowing Ava’s words to be true, he went through his phone to search for her number. Hoping she will pick up but unfortunately the number wasn’t going. It seems like she hasn’t changed numbers. Stefan knew for sure the only way for him to find her was to go to that place he had almost hit her. She could be the one. He will ask people around if they have seen her or know where she lives just by calling her name and showing them her picture.

Stefan was really excited. He will be jovial if he really finds out she had a child for him. He took his suitcase, car key and grabbed his phone about to head out when Morgan grabbed hold of his hand. “Do you really think I will allow you to go look for her? You’re married to me now for Christ sake. Why are you still living on her death image?”
