Contract With The Billionaire

CHAAPTER FORTY EIGHT



Mia had no idea where she was going because her mind was blank, and all she wanted was for the pain to go away.

She aimlessly walked on the road in the middle of the night, not bothered about the danger of the night.

As soon as she is born, she must fulfil her duty as a daughter, then her duty as a wife, her duty as a daughter in-law, her duty as a mother, and it doesn’t stop there. Isn’t she a human too?

“Going somewhere?” A voice came from behind her, and that was when she realised her surroundings.

She had no idea where she was, and there was no one around.

With her heart thudding rapidly, she clutched the sides of her dress as she thought of running, but whatever direction she would take, She didn’t even know what danger awaited her.

So she slowly turned around and froze, looking at the person.

“Hey.” The person smirked, and even though she remembered him, that didn’t make her feel any good.

“What are you doing here?” She asked, trying to be strong, but her shaky voice says otherwise.

“What do you think? Man, I had some real work to do these few months. Stalking you and digging up your past wasn’t easy, you know. It took some real effort.” the man said.

“By the way, won’t you thank me for helping you with the truth about your husband?” He chuckled, but the look in his eyes made her take a step back.

He noticed it and shot a dark look at her, making her freeze.

“Stop running away from me, I have had enough of watching you with that fucker.” He sneered in anger, taking a step towards her while she continued stepping back, making him more angry.

Finally annoyed, he held her arms and jerked her towards him, making her cry out.

“Stop that, stop crying for fuck’s sake, and come with me. Also, I didn’t know it would be so easy to get you. I thought you would be here with that little bastard child of yours, but good that he isn’t here, or I would’ve thrown him away anyway.” He spat venomously, and this time Mia stopped struggling, as she heard him talking about Bryan like that.

She glared at him hard, and without another thought, she raised her knee and kicked him hard. He groaned in pain and gritted his teeth before he raised his head and glared at her.

But she wasn’t scared this time. “How dare you talk about my son like that? I will kill you if you even think of harming my son.” Mia said, as there was this fire in her eyes, as she snarled at the man in front of her.

“Your son, huh? That son who was born after your so called husband used your body. Then why don’t I give you a son as well?” he uttered, and his words were disgusted to her ears, as she clenched her jaw.

She was about to walk away when he pulled her close to him again. She tried to push him away, but he was stronger. She tried to kick him again, but he blocked it, and she smirked evilly.

“I won’t repeat my mistakes, baby.” He ordered, and she felt sick and helpless, feeling his hot breath on her face.

But was she going to give up? No.

“Let me go, you asshole.” She spat on his face, which caused him to tighten his grip on her.

His eyes turned dark as he looked at her, while she could only wince in pain.

“Let go of the lady.” she heard another unknown voice, Mia felt hope in her chest, hearing the voice.

She tried to get out of his grip again, but he didn’t let her. “Stay the fuck out of this.”

“I’ll only repeat it one more time. Let her go.” The unknown man said it again.

“What if I don’t?” He challenged, and Mia gulped.

“Then you give me no option.” I’ll have to use this.” Since Mia was facing the other side, she couldn’t see who was helping her, but when she felt his grip on her loosening, she immediately stepped away from him before turning to the other side.

Her eyes widened when she noticed a gun in the stranger’s hand. He looked oddly familiar, but she couldn’t remember.

“Now, stay there until the cops arrive.” Just as he completed his sentence, a police car arrived, and Mia watched as the man was put into the car, but he shot her a murderous look before he was taken away.

“Are you alright?” The unknown man asked, and Mia nodded, suddenly feeling emotional.

She couldn’t believe she had actually left her baby, Bryan, who was sleeping peacefully.

A sob left her mouth, and she shut her eyes.

She was about to get kidnapped or raped because of her own stupidity, hadn’t it been this man who helped her?

“Th-Thank you.” She whispered, and she felt his hand on her.

“It’s okay. You’re safe, but don’t go wandering around at times like these.” His voice was soft yet stern, and she felt herself nodding.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

“Let me drop you home.” the man proposed, and Mia stared at the man as she fidgeted with her fingers nervously. She just didn’t want to face Alex right now.

Mia and the man got home, as she took out the secret key and opened the door, she quickly checked around and found no one in the living room.

“Are we breaking into someone else’s house?” A voice whispered into her ear, and she yelled in fear.

She glared at the man, who grinned sheepishly at her. The man was in his sixties but still looked charming.

“Mia, I’ll leave then.” He smiled and patted her head in a fatherly manner, but she stopped him.

“Wait, just please wait for a few minutes.” Saying so, she quickly ran towards her room to check on Bryan but rather froze on finding the cradle empty.

Before she could panic, her eyes fell on the bed, and she sighed in relief at finding her baby sleeping there with Chloe.

Swallowing the lump in her throat, she moved towards the bed and picked up Bryan in her arms, who stirred in his sleep but went back to sleep in his mother’s arms.

She glanced at Chloe, who slept peacefully, and then walked out.

“Can you drop me off at an orphanage?” She pleaded with him, and the man looked at her as if thinking something.

Alex and Mark set out to find Mia. Where? They had no idea. But they couldn’t just sit at home.

“I swear, Alex, if we don’t find her soon, I’ll kill you.” Mark warned Alex, who was driving at the moment.

Alex ignored him and kept looking around because he couldn’t tell his best friend the reason behind his wife’s sudden disappearance.

It was his fault, he agreed, but why couldn’t she just talk it out with him?

“You really aren’t going to tell me what you saw on her phone?” Mark chipped in again, because Alex wouldn’t tell him what made him so restless and impatient after he read something on Mia’s phone.

“Alex, you need to tell me! What the fuck is going on? We can’t even go to the police because she hasn’t been missing for up to twelve hours. For fuck’s sake, if something happens to her,” Mark sudden stopped talking, as the car came to a sudden halt.

“She found out that I fucking fooled her.” Alex spat harshly, his grip on the steering made his knuckles turn white, while Mark froze.

“She knows?” He asked with a blank face, and Alex nodded.

“Let’s head back.” Mark said in a serious tone, to which Alex glared at him.

“I’m not going back until I find her.” He growled in anger.

“She doesn’t want you to find her, Alex.” Mark stated.

“So fucking move your car and head back home, because if Bryan wakes up in the middle of the night, he won’t find his mother or even his father. Do you want that?” Mark yelled furiously, and as much as Alex wanted to kick someone or something, he knew Mark was right.

So without another word, he started the car and headed back home.

The ride back was silent, the tension in the air wasn’t going to be lessened anytime soon, but Alex only wished he could stop his heart from beating that rapidly.

He needed to find her.

Mark was the first one to get out of the car, slamming the door shut as he marched inside with a furious face.

He was fucking mad at Alex for playing such a dirty game.

Not looking at where he was going, he suddenly bumped into someone, which made him more angry.

“Watch where you are….” He froze when he looked up, not because of the man but because he saw the person behind him.

“Mia,” He swallowed the lump in his throat, as his eyes softened, seeing her state.

“Mark, listen.” Alex followed behind, and stopped on his tracks.

His mind turned blank when his eyes landed on the person in front of him. His eyes widened, and he suddenly felt like he couldn’t breathe. He took a step behind, but staggered as his legs couldn’t support him.

“Da…. Dad.” Alex whispered, and three shocking faces stared at him.
