The Billionaire’s Lust Love

“Why are you here?” he asked in shock.

“Do you know each other?” Felix asked us, confused.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“Oh yes, because he hel- hmm” he suddenly put his hand on my mouth to silence me.

“Her ex-boyfriend, dad” he laughed while still covering my mouth with his big hand.

“What!” I said to him disgustedly. When I looked at Felix, his face was full of surprise looking at me.

“Is that true, Ria?” he asked.

“Just say yes please,” the guy next to me whispered. Because he helped me in the hospital, so I said yes to Felix, who seemed unconvinced.

“Oh, okay. Anyway, we’ll talk later. We have something to discuss but I’ll help John and Karyo first on getting firewoods.”

When Felix left, I turned to look at his son in annoyance. It feel like my jaw dis-aligned because of what he did.

“It hurts,” I complained.

“I’m sorry. I rattled when you were about to spoil dad that I didn’t show up at the engagement party,”

“You’re so noisy,” I rolled my eyes.

“Tss. Are women like that? Especially if they are pregnant?”

“I don’t know. Ask yourself,”

“Come on! That’s too bad. Anyway, Let me introduce myself, beautiful lady, I’m Finn-

“Viosdado, where is the document I sent you?”

My eyes widened when Felix shouted, Viosdado.

“HAHAHAHAHAHAH!” I couldn’t help but laugh at his name that made him frown.

“Is that your name?” I asked laughing.

“Funny!” he told me full of sarcasm. It was obvious that he was so pissed off when his dad called him Viosdado.

“I’ll be right back,” he left me and rushed to his father.

“Hey wait a minute Viosdado,” I called him while laughing.

We were in grandma’s small living room. John and Felix were looking at me while Vios was standing next to me.

“First of all Ria, we did an investigation regarding what happened to the incident. Until now, we’re still locating who is behind this. Will you tell us who you had quarrels with before?” John asked seriously. Why are they helping me and for what reason? Because I’m their friend’s daughter?

“Yeah. Amanda, mom and Steven’s mother. Amanda hated me because of Steven. She has a big motive for doing that to me. Secondly was Steven’s mom because she didn’t want me for her son-

“And why?” Vios interrupted. Curious to know why Steven’s mother doesn’t like me.

“Because I’m poor,”

“Oh! Because you’re poor? Well, slap your money to her,” he said jokingly. I don’t have a lot of money.

“You’re joking again,” I said.

“I’m not joking,” I looked at him and he looked at me seriously. Tss. I won’t believe him. He’s teasing me. I just ignored it and continued my story.

“Mom is the last one I suspected did that. I recently found out that Amanda is her daughter. I don’t know how it happened but when I met her, she’s with Amanda and she told me that she was her daughter.”

John was listening quietly. I couldn’t read what he was thinking.

“Do you have a relationship with Steven aside from him being the father of your child?”

“We’re in relationship more than being a parent to Hivo,” I answered.

“He likes me and so do I,” I added

“Like but not love,” I glared at Vios who was obviously teasing me.

“Have you Viosdado already moved on with Ria?”

I laughed when I heard his name again.

“Dad, don’t call me Viosdado. And what? Move on? From her? Yucks!” He said, frowning.

“Aren’t you ex-girlfriend-boyfriend?”

I raised an eyebrow at Vios.

“Of course. It’s easy to move on from an ugly chic,” he said trying to mock me.

“Vios, should I cut your tongue?” Felix

Vios fell silent.

“Anyway Ria, what are you going to do now?” I looked at John who was looking at me seriously.

“What do you mean?”

“Steven. He’s getting married to Amanda,”

“I was shocked at first but I trust him. Maybe he has a reason. That’s what I want to believe,”

Yes. I am angry with Steven but not because he cheated as they say. I don’t know why I feel this. I’m just angry that he doesn’t seem to care about Roel or about our son. And that’s all!

Hivo and I felt his love and care for me then. It was sincere that I almost cried.

I know he has a reason. Whatever it is, I want to know.

“You trust him? Even if they are getting married 3 months from now?”

3 months? That fast?

“Yes. I trust him,” I said. Yes, that’s right. I trust him cause in the end, he’ll going home for us. We already have children and we are his home.

“I don’t know if I should be surprised or you’re just really stupid,” Vios said.

“You really look like Sir Albert,” Felix

“By the way, may I know who Albert is? What kind of person is my father?” I asked them.

“Sir Albert is the person who helped me back then,” John

“I used to be an ex-convict. Because of my criminal records, it was difficult for me to find a job.”

Woah! Surprising!

“Sir Albert is a good man. He treated his employees as his family.” John laughed a little as he remembered his yesterday.

I smiled at what I learned about my father. I never thought that he’s a kind person.

“He’s smart when it comes to business. No wonder his company is very well-known now to the world,”

“I’m his lawyer. But I wouldn’t be a lawyer if he didn’t help me to survive,” Felix.

“Okay, I’m out. I hate to hear this again old man,” Vios said and left. John and Felix just shook their heads at him.

“Like I said, Sir Albert also helped me. I met him earlier than John because Sir Albert and I met when we were young. I grew up where my parents neglected me. I am abused by my step father when I was young. To make the story short, I attempted to commit suicide on the bridge and then your father came. He saw me and stopped me from jumping off that bridge. Maybe if he hadn’t come, I wouldn’t be here now.”

It’s a surprise for me. I don’t know that they were once a broken man before. When I look at them now, you’ll see nothing but a fine good looking professionals. Indeed don’t judge the book by its cover.

“We became friends. When I ran away from us, he took me to his house. He convinced his parents to shelter me and finance me in my studies. I graduated in law because of him and his family.”

How does it feel to grow up with dad? Based on their stories, he’s a wise man. It’s just sad to think that I never even saw him.

“Can I ask a question?”

“What is it?”

“What dad’s business are you talking about?”

“The R. L. Corporation”

R. L Corporation? Familiar.

I think I heard that somewhere.

Wait.. I remembered something.

“We are fine too. Your sister Sydney has married a rich man and they are now in California. While Alberto, he is in charge of the R. L Corporation,”

While Alberto, he is in charge of R. L Corporation” While Alberto, he is in charge of R. L Corporation”

Right. The company that mom mentioned when we talked about dad. If so-

My eyes widened and I turned to look at Felix and John.

“Yes. You’re his heir. You are the heir of Albert Loverio, the one who created the R. L Corporation. The real owner of the company that your father worked hard for.”
