Filed To Story: Dumped by Scumbag Adored by Billionaire

“Ouch! That hurts!” Pedro cried out in pain, taking his hands off her chest “I’m so sorry, it was a mistake. Who knew my hands were going to find their way there?” he protested with a pout.

“The nerve!” Isabella fumed, “Just because you smell good and we’re friends, you think you can get a good feel for free, is that it?”

Pedro knew his life was in danger, he took to his heels. However, Isabella had always been a strong and athletic person, she jumped over the sofa between them and pushed him to the ground.

Isabella straddled him, she tried to grab his hair but Pedro was quick to grab both hands, they began a power tussle. Each tried to overcome the other but their powers were evenly matched.

“Give up! ” Isabella smiled at successfully pinning his hand to the ground.

“No way,” Pedro rolled her to her back, overthrowing her, “Always respect a man’s ego,” he grinned victoriously.

“Ego, my ass,” She flipped him over.

Pedro released a sharp gasp when his back hit the bare floor. Gosh, why was she so strong? But there was another problem, a certain part of his body was reacting to her sitting on him.

Isabella must have felt it too because she stilled; She didn’t dare to move, knowing what would happen next. They were speechless, staring at each other unsure of what to do.

Isabella blushed, did she just give him a boner? She was a bold one but Pedro was her friend… wait, was he? Why shouldn’t she date him? He was hot for God’s sake and that was her type of guy.

Pedro’s heart was slamming against his chest, he felt blood rush to his brain yet guilt overwhelmed him. He was dating Anabelle, so he shouldn’t be in this compromising position with Isabella.

He was just about to pull her away from him with all the control he had when Isabella moved against him. Pedro gasped while his eyes grew wide, what did she just do.

“Isabella,” He hissed, aroused beyond measure, but he had to stop this madness.

“Don’t fight it,” Isabella whispered, lowered her head, and kissed him before he could comprehend what was going on.

He overestimated his control.

Yes, Pedro wanted to stop this but he was a man and his body was designed to such responses and so, found himself kissing her back.

They were no longer kids, Isabella discovered that by slipping her hand inside his shirt, caressing his stomach. Those baby fat had been replaced by a perfectly toned stomach; she traced his six-packs.

Pedro’s primal side was activated and he showed that by flipping her over, conquering, and taking the lead. He swore, he has never felt this way with anybody – not even Anabelle.

He and Anabelle started going out two months ago and all they shared was sweet, brief kisses- nothing beyond that. He had to consider her health plus the fact, Anabelle believed in the fairy tale type of romance.

But this was intense and passionate, seeping right his veins and making his blood boil. He felt alive, like that demon in him had awoken.

Isabella never thought it would be good – Better than her other kisses. Not that she kissed much, none of the so-called boyfriends lasted more than a day – she beat her father’s record. Moreover, none of them interested her, she just kept them around for the attention and to whirl away time – those unfaithful douches.

Pedro was not what she expected, he was so innocent and sweet that she wanted to taint his soul – but it seems, the angel was a hybrid.

And so both of them were so engrossed in their passionate moment that they didn’t hear Niles come in until the glass in his grasp fell and broke.

Niles’ POV

It had to stop now. I had taken enough of Jennifer’s nagging and manipulation, it was to end instantly. Moreover, we had a deal and now I’ve confirmed it’s Maria, she should keep to her end of the deal.

I was truly sorry for giving her false hope which was why I made sure that the card contained enough money that would give her and Neon a comfortable life without even lifting a finger in the name of working.

Things just didn’t go the way we planned. People date for years, engage and yet call off the wedding on D-day. So this was just a slight version of it, I told my guilty heart.

Moreover, If Maria had to return to me, Jennifer had to go. If there was anything I learned from Tina, it was the fact that women were extremely jealous creatures and would never coexist in a room when put together.

I was on my laptop going through the weekly statistics from my company, forcing my mind not to think about the ridiculous conversation I had with my father days ago.

Flashback:

“Who is this Reina I hear about?” His voice rang from the other end.

My jaw ticked, for Adam to call by himself meant he was uncomfortable with this news and wanted something to be done.

“And why do you ask me that? I’m not your private investigator,” I backtalked. Gone were the days when I was under his control.

“Niles..” He released a burst of mocking laughter that made my fist clench. He was treating me like I was some sort of inexperienced kid.

“We already know where Maria left you and I. Steer clear of this one whether she looks like Maria or not, ” I sensed the threat beneath his words.

It was a relief he didn’t know Reina and Maria were the same person else who knows what this crazy man would have done already.

He continued, “You’re welcome to return home anytime soon. Eden is nothing but a puppet I allowed in your place – temporary. Just a word and you’d be restored to your former glory. This position belongs to you, son.”

That comment made goosebumps climb my arms, I realized, “You’re the one responsible for Anabelle’s illness, aren’t you?”

“Desperate time calls for desperate measures,” was his reply.

Of course, what was I expecting? That this demon would suddenly develop a human heart. Eden must have foolishly thought he could beat him.

“You know what father?” My voice was icy cold, “You can go to hell,”

I was so angry that I wanted to hang up on him, instead, I added, “And if you dare to lay a hand on Reina, I’ll really put a bullet in your head this time,” I reminded him when I pointed a gun at his head after Maria’s death.

He laughed again, that annoying sound making my blood boil, “Really? Come at me then,”

End of Flashback.

The thought made me hot and I reached out for my glass of water only to realize it was empty and so was the jar. I contemplated calling up Amanda for a refill through the intercom but decided against it and so, I made my way downstairs to quench my taste only to receive the greatest shock of my life.

Pedro and Isabella My eyes weren’t deceiving me.

It wasn’t Anabelle, but Isabella, my daughter with Pedro on top of her, doing stuff I did to Reina hours ago.

The glass slipped from my hand and smashed to the ground. I was not expecting this, nor with Pedro. Sure, they had been pretty close as kids but they’re adults now – and it had never crossed my mind till now.

They both rushed up to their feet, guilt, and embarrassment showing on their faces.

I pointed at Izzy and Pedro, what was I even going to say to them. More like where was I going to begin?
