Chapter 86 – A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love

Posted on June 1, 2024June 1, 2024 by admin

Filed To Story: A Second Chance with My Billionaire Love

It was weird that when Elijah held Halston, he wasn’t as hostile to him as he was to her. He also didn’t behave like a kid when he was holding Flossie earlier. He was perfectly normal.

After they reached Halston’s room, Elijah slowly lay him down on the bed.

Elijah faintly heard Halston whisper, “Flossie… come back. I order you to come back! No one else can protect you besides me.”

Hearing this, Elijah sighed. “Mr. Guajardo, you didn’t love her when she did, but now that she doesn’t love you anymore, you started to fall for her. Why are you making your life so hard?”

Halston woke up the next day with his head weighing a million pounds.

He looked around and saw Elijah sitting in front of the bed, observing him with a frown.

“Mr. Guajardo, you’re finally awake. My mission is done. I can leave now.”

He let out a sigh of relief and seemed excited.

With Halston completely out of it last night, all he could do was guard him the entire night, fearing Jessanna, who was yearning for a chance with Halston, would sneak in and take advantage.

Halston rubbed his temples and frowned as he tried to recall everything that happened last night.

The only memory he had was playing finger guessing with Flossie.

“Did I get drunk last night?”

He resumed his cold demeanor, sounding indifferent. “Based on my skills, there’s no way I lost control,” he stated firmly.

Hearing this, Elijah rolled his eyes secretly.

‘Here we go again. Every time Mr. Guajardo gets drunk, he will forget everything that happened and he would deny all his actions after sobering up.,‘ he thought to himself.

He knew Halston had that habit; therefore, he never allowed him to drink to the point of drunkenness. He did, however, underestimate Flossie, who caused Halston to get intoxicated last night.

Elijah said seriously, “Yes. You didn’t lose control, but you went nuts.”

“Nonsense!”

Halston stared at him coldly and said with pride, “I know my limits. There’s no way I will get that drunk.”

Hearing this, Elijah couldn’t help but chuckle. Halston was trying to deny what he did last night!

He had never seen anyone who could be as shameless and so full of themselves as Halston.

If he didn’t have proof of last night, he wouldn’t even have believed his own words, about Halston getting drunk.

“Mr. Guajardo, you really have no memory of last night?” Elijah asked cautiously.

Halston gave some thought to it before answering, “All I remember is that after losing to Flossie, she left, and you sent me home.”

“Well, that’s true, except you left out most of the details. Do you remember dragging me to a karaoke place and began screaming your head off? You even pestered Mrs. Guajardo and refused to let her go.”

Hearing Flossie’s name, Halston’s cold face softened a little as he denied it coldly. “That’s impossible!”

He could accept the fact that he screamed and sang in the karaoke room. After all, it had happened before.

But pestering Flossie and not letting her go was something he was certain he wouldn’t do, not to mention that he was clear that he had no feelings for her.

He despised the touch of a woman; thus, refusing to let go of a woman he disliked was technically impossible.

Elijah knew that Halston would deny it till the cows came home, so he cleverly came prepared.

“Mr. Guajardo, let me show you the proof.”

He took out his phone and opened the video he recorded of Halston last night, and held in his laughter. “Look at it for yourself. You really shocked me with how you simped over Mrs. Guajardo.”

Halston frowned as he took over Elijah’s phone.

Then, he saw himself tightly hugging Flossie, clinging to her like glue.

The most humiliating thing about it was that several people tried but failed to pull him away. He could almost hear himself pleading with Flossie to stay.

“Delete it now!”

Halston’s handsome face was stiff as he felt a wave of awkwardness wash over him.

He never thought such a thing would happen.

It was so embarrassing that he wished he could run away and never come back.

“Uhm… Mr. Guajardo, I don’t think it’s possible to delete it. I was going to, but I accidentally uploaded it to our official website. Although I deleted it immediately, there’s the possibility that some may have seen, or even downloaded it.”

“WHAT?!” Halston roared so loudly that the entire house could hear him.

Today was the day that Flossie was supposed to officially move out of Sunup Residence.

Although it was mainly because she wanted to avoid her ex–husband, Halston, she had also been dreaming about moving to her new place for four years.

Her new place would be the Ellsworth Residence!

After the Ellsworth family went bankrupt four years ago, the court sold off their three–story mansion.

Nevertheless, since her parents had passed away at the mansion, no one dared to purchase it, even at a modest price.

It was auctioned off again a few days ago.

This time, Flossie bought it for 1.5 billion without further hesitation.

She only told Leia and Liam about her new home, who both wanted to throw her a housewarming party. Leia even said that she’d be bringing a mysterious guest.

Flossie quickly agreed to it as she wanted the abandoned Ellsworth Residence to feel lively again.

She hadn’t stayed in Sunup Residence for long, and there wasn’t much to pack.

Before leaving, she gave the door one last look and couldn’t help but chuckle bitterly.

‘Halston is probably in bed with Jessanna talking about their wedding,‘ she thought to herself.

Her hast move did seem a little unnecessary, seeing as to how Halston didn’t seem to care one bit.

She took a deep breath, shook her head, and forced herself to forget him.

‘It’s all in the past!‘ she told herself.

After this, there would be no connection between them, not unless they became business rivals.

The car drove past the cities before arriving at a quiet place on the outskirts.
