The Billionaire 3: Tyron Cruz

Chapter 31

Tyron is frozen in his seat as he realizes what’s the ticking sound is and why Gabriel is frantically

running towards him.

He didn’t even notice that his door sprang open and Ricardo pulled him outside and they run towards

Gabriel’s building before the car exploded.

“Do you have a death wish?” Ricardo yells at him who is still in shock. “It’s a good thing that Don

Samuel asks me to follow you or else…” He didn’t finish what he is going to say instead he sighs.

“I already contacted some of my agents, you need to hide for the mean time.” Gabriel said while he is

on the phone. “No one must know that you survived that explosion.” He added.

“But my wife—”

“I’m sorry, Tyron, but everyone must believe that you died… And that’s what your Uncle wants.” Gabriel

said.

“Damn!” Tyron curses as he imagines what Isabella and his family will feel.

“Sir Gabriel!” A man in leather approaches them. “The car is ready.”

“Okay.” Gabriel said before looking at Tyron. “Go with Leon and wait for me.” He orders. “I need to

settle this first.” He added, pertaining to Tyron’s wrecked car.

“Let’s go Tyron, we cannot be seen here.” Riccardo told him; Tyron sighs and obliged. He wanted to

immediately call his wife and tell her that he’s okay and unharmed.

“Can I not really call my wife nor my family?” Tyron asks in distress, worried that something might

happen to his wife and his mother.

“I’m sorry, Mister Cruz but we really cannot do that, especially now that you are announced dead.”

Leon said. “Please bear with it for a couple of days, we really must do this to make your Uncle believe

that his plan worked.”

“But if he managed to harm me, then there is no guarantee that my family will be safe from him.” He

said, worried.

“Don’t worry, Mister Cruz, we already dispatched men to keep your family safe.” Leon said.

Tyron sighs and looks at the direction of his wrecked car, lots of bystanders and reporters are there.

The police secured the scene and Gabriel is busy talking to one of the policemen when a familiar figure

caught Tyron’s eye—it is no other than his wife, Isabella.

“Isabella…” He murmured as he watches her being devastated, then in a split second, Isabella

suddenly lost consciousness. “Shit!” He curses and was about to go out of the car but he is grab by

Ricardo and Leon. “Let me go, damn!” He protested. “I need to see my wife.” He said as he watches

Gabriel carried Isabella to her car.

“You can’t, Tyron!” Ricardo said, just then Leon receives a call, upon seeing who the caller is, he put it

in a loudspeaker.

“Follow me to the hospital, and put a disguise on Tyron so that he can see his wife.” Gabriel orders.

“Roger that.” Leon said before the call ended. “I hope that will keep you calm.”

In the hospital, Tyron learned that Isabella is pregnant. At first, he is not sure if Isabella is just

hallucinating when she told him that she’s pregnant and that she loves him. But when the doctor

confirmed it, he is happy and determined to finish the fight once in for all.

He is lucky to have his friends around him, Joshua and Rafael offer to look out after his companies for

a while.

“Your wife is pregnant, are you sure that we will not tell her that you’re alive?” Joshua asks.

“You saw how devastated she was upon the news of your death.” Gabriel said.

“Not now, but I need you to put them in a safe place. Somewhere where Uncle Fred can’t find them.”

Tyron said. “I’m afraid that Uncle Fred will hurt my family.”

“If that’s what you want.” Gabriel sighs.

“The most important thing now is to apprehend Uncle Fred.” Tyron said.

I know that you wanted to put him behind bars as soon as possible, but we just learned that they will be

having a big transaction next week, and we are planning to catch him red-handed on that day.” Gabriel

informs. “I hope you can wait until next week.”

Tyron groans and sigh.

“The person he will be transacting is no other than Ramon Madrigal, one of the most suspected drug

lords in the country.” Gabriel explains.

“Then I guess I need to wait.” Tyron sighs and caress Isabella’s face.

There was a knock on the door and Leon enters the room.

“Sir, there are suspicious men around the hospital, our men are following them to see what they are up

to.” “Leon said.

“Your Uncle is not a simple man.” Gabriel told Tyron before talking to Leon. “Okay, continue keeping an

eye on them. I am giving you the authority to make a decision when it is needed immediately.”

“Roger that.” Leon said before going out of the room.

“For the mean time, you and Uncle Ricardo will stay in my house.” Gabriel said.

“Aren’t your parents staying with you?” Tyron asks.

“My parents are busy touring around the world.” Gab answers. “And you can’t stay with these jerks as

they are already married.” Gabriel said pertaining to Joshua and Gabriel.

“I guess I have no choice then.” Tyron sighs as he puts on his fake beard and glasses.

“Damn Tyron!” Gabriel groans in irritation. “If you want to hear your wife’s voice then just call her and

tell her you’re alive! Stop using me to call her and ask how is she or how is her morning sickness and

even asking what food she is craving for. I don’t want others to misunderstand what I am doing.”

Gabriel added.

“I’m sorry for giving you a lot of trouble.” Tyron apologizes. “I just hope that my wife is comfortable while

I’m still not by her side.”

Gabriel sighs. “I know, man.”

“How about you? I heard that you once had a woman you wanted to get married to…”

“That’s a story of long time ago.” Gabriel said. “I don’t need a woman in my life, they are just a bother.” NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

“I bet you always say that.” Tyron said.

“Because it is the truth.” Gabriel shrugs. “Just look at you, Joshua, Rafael and Jon and you know what I

mean.”

Tyron laughs at his friend. “You’re saying that because you haven’t met the right woman just yet.” He

sighs. “I am sure that one day, you will eat your words and will go crazy over a girl.”

“I once did, though.” Gabriel bitterly smiles. “But what did I get in return? A betrayal. But that is in the

past.” He added. “Anyways, are you ready for tomorrow?” He asks. Tomorrow is the day that they’ve

been waiting for.

“Yes.” He answers, determined.

“Just know that it will be very dangerous.” Gabriel warns. “And be prepared to meet your Uncle.”

“I just hope that everything go well tomorrow.” Tyron sighs. “I really wanted to hug my wife.” He thought

to himself.

“You will soon be reunited with your wife.” Gabriel said like he seems to read his mind. “But prepare

yourself again for not telling her that you’re alive. She might feel betrayed that you all keep it from her.”

He added making him sigh.

“I know and I’m beginning to regret it.” He sighs.

“Why not try calling her?” Gab suggests. “And use your phone.” He said before he could ask for his

phone. “You don’t have to say anything…”

Tyron sighs in defeat and gets his phone from his pocket. He heaves another sigh as he dials Isabella’s

number.

“Yes, hello?” Isabella answers the call and his heart beats faster. He can already imagine the frown on

her face. “Who is this?” Isabella asks again but he didn’t say anything. “Tyron?” She asks again making

his heart clenched when he heard his wife sobbing. “I’m sorry… I don’t know why you called me but

can you just lend me your ears for a second?” She asks. “You don’t have to talk, just listen to me,

please… I just need to let this all out before I lose my mind.”

Tyron didn’t say a thing even if he wanted to talk. Gabriel, quickly realizes the situation so he gestures

that he will leave him alone.

“My husband died recently, it was all over the news but I have a strong feeling that he is still alive—or

maybe that’s what I try to believe.” Isabella said sobbing and he can feel her pain. If what she told him

in the hospital is true then… he silently sighs. “But if he’s really dead, then I will dedicate my life in

raising our child. I will not marry again because I know myself that he will be my only husband until the

day I die.”

Hearing that makes his heart flutter. “So, if it is you, Tyron who is calling and listening to me…” he

heard her sigh. “Just finish what you have to do and come back to me—to us…” She paused then she

suddenly laughs. “What am I talking about? I’m so sorry… I just can’t accept the truth.” She said,

sobbing as she ends the call.

Tyron clenches his fist and closes his eyes—Isabella’s sweet smile is flashing through his mind.

“Just wait a little bit, my wife. I will come home.” He said. “We had a lot to talk about…”
