The Billionaire’s Son Chose Me!

Martin’s eyes narrowed down at Arya, her eyes glared at him also.

“What are you talking about? you and I both know that Charlotte has disappeared into thin air”

Arya chuckled and folded her arm beneath her ample bossom..

“Really?”

“Why don’t you ask Kyle about it, he’s your husband right? I’m sure he won’t mind telling you every little detail you need to know about Charlotte”

Arya’s ringtone disrupted the few seconds silence in the living room..

She answered the call when she saw Mia’s name pop up on her screen..

“Arya come home immediately! Ray has been found”

***

Kyle paced around while Chad examined Ray who was still unconscious.

Earlier one of the securities at Ray’s school called to drop the information of an unconscious child in the school’s playground..

Chad turned to Kyle with a small smile to ease the tension in the room..

“How’s he?”

“There’s really nothing wrong with him all we have to do is to wait for him to wake up” Chad announced and patted Kyle’s back before stepping out of the room.

Vanessa ransacked her head for a way to take advantage of the situation before her, since Arya wasn’t here it would be a little too easy..

She stroked Ray’s hair gently and feigned a sad look.

“My poor baby.. who knows what he has passed through in the hands of those awful people”

Kyle moved to the corner of the room to receive an incoming phone call..

“Yes! what did you find? good! keep an eye on him and make sure you get the person responsible for this!” He ordered..

The door was opened in a flash and Arya rushed in, she moved to the bed and pushed Vanessa off Ray’s side..

“You’re alright Ray.. you got me so worried” She murmured planting small kisses on his face..

Vanessa’s knuckles turned into a fist, why was she cursed so much like this? Whenever she gets a chance to prove her self worth in front of Kyle, Arya always gets into her way..

“Why am I not surprised? you don’t think before you act” Kyle scolded..

He came to stand before Arya who was busy with Ray..

“What were you thinking when you locked me in there? I couldn’t help it..”

Kyle flicked her forehead with his fingers “And what if you had fallen from that height and died?”

Arya raised her head to him with an arched brow “So? my ghost would have haunted you.. it seems like you are worried about me”

Vanessa stared back and forth between the two who were speaking to each other like a normal couple, they even disregarded her presence.

Arya’s gaze fell on her for a brief second with a smirk on her lips, Vanessa fumed in anger, how dare she?

“How could I forget about your generous help today Vanessa.. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart but I’m here now so you can leave it up to me”

Vanessa snapped her gaze to Arya and then to Kyle, he wasn’t even objecting to it which meant he agreed to Arya’s words..

She managed to force a tight smile at Arya “I’ll leave once Ray wakes up Arya”

Arya smiled in return, she made an attempt to get up but staggered a bit forward and was swiftly caught by Kyle..

“Easy” He muttered and helped her sit once more..

Arya raised a hand to her temple feigning a headache..

“Ah! my head hurts”

Kyle stroked her hair gently trying to ease her a bit “You’ve had a really stressful day, I’ll get Chad to examine you”

Arya nodded and watched him leave the ward, her burning gaze fell on Vanessa who already turned red in anger..

“What were you trying to do? you’re doing it on purpose right?”

Arya nodded in affirmation and stood up to her feet, she walked calmly towards Vanessa..

“Of course I have to do everything I can to keep you away from Kyle”

Vanessa rolled her eyes at Arya’s confession, she shook her head slowly..

“Are you so insecure of me Arya? I must be amazing then”

“Say whatever you want but the truth is clear there’s no place for you in his life.. you should know that by now after all you said he was still into Charlotte”

Arya placed a palm over her mouth as if in shock “Oh my! are you trying to steal your friend’s place in Kyle’s heart? you’re such a friend” Arya mocked with a chuckle..

Vanessa’s nails dug into her skin, and how did Arya find out about her friendship with Charlotte? she had really underestimated her.

“What do you know?”

“If I tell Kyle that your friend who he thought is dead is responsible for everything that has been going on lately.. what do you think he’ll do?”

Vanessa scoffed Arya was just being ridiculous, Kyle wouldn’t even believe a word she says pertaining Charlotte..

“You think Charlotte is responsible for everything you’ve been going through?”

“I know so Vanessa, and I know deep down that you know something.. have you ever wondered what Kyle will do to you and the rest of your team once he learns about what really happened on that day Charlotte went missing”

Cold sweat broke out on Vanessa’s forehead, she picked up her purse and left the ward in a hurry..

Arya’s brows knotted, she was only bluffing a while ago but by the look that crossed Vanessa’s face, she was sure that Vanessa knows something..

“Arya”

Arya turned swiftly to Ray whose eyes was wide open..Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Ray you’re awake”

***

Few days later..

“Arya you can do it!” Ray cheered Arya up who was currently playing a video game with Kyle in his room..

“That’s not fair Ray!”

Arya focused keenly at the screen before her, she already lost four times in a row to Kyle and it was getting really annoying..

Kyle leaned next to her ears while his gaze remained focused on the screen..

“Give up now Arya.. I’ll definitely win this time again.. you stand no chance”

Arya raised a brow, she turned her face to him and planted a quick kiss on his cheek, her sudden action rendered him numb..

He suddenly snapped out of his daze when Arya and Ray screamed out in victory..

“Arya won! yay!” Ray yelled bouncing up and down on his bed..

Kyle turned to Arya in disbelief “You cheated! can’t you see that she cheated Ray? I was distracted by her”

Arya giggled at his expression “I never cheated Kyle.. you just can’t accept the fact that you lost to me”

Ray hopped down from the bed and pulled Arya away with him..

“You won Arya.. let’s celebrate with a glass of chocolate milk”

Arya nodded eagerly to him and followed him out.

***

“Boss Mr Wales has organized a party to celebrate and also promote the new business project we signed few days ago”

Kyle hummed in reply, but his attention was elsewhere, Tim traced Kyle’s line of sight and it fell on Arya and Ray..

He couldn’t believe that they didn’t include him in their little celebration and to think that Arya would use such a method on him..

“Is that all?”

Tim nodded and he was dismissed soon after, he stood up from his seat and walked in long strides to the two.

He could hear their laughs and giggles getting louder as he came nearer..

“And here he comes” Ray said which earned another chuckle from Arya..

Kyle’s gaze bore into Arya’s eyes “Were you both saying mean things behind my back? and also where’s my own share of that?”

Arya and Ray clicked their glasses together and raised it to their lips..

“Only the winners get it daddy and you lost to Arya” Ray chirmed in..

Arya ruffled his hair “You’re right baby.. So you got any more to say?”

Kyle nodded his head, his lips formed a mischievous smirk.. he turned to Ray “Ray you left Conny in my room last night, you know how much I hate stuffed animals right?”

Ray gasped and dashed out of the dining room leaving behind his dad and Arya..

Kyle walked around the table where Arya was currently standing..

“What you did back at Ray’s room…

“It was just a little joke.. don’t take it too seriously.. I only wanted to win that’s all” Arya said brushing him off, she took a sip out of her glass..

“Really?”

Arya nodded and to her astonishment Kyle raised her chin up with a finger..

“Then don’t think too much about this” He murmured and captured her lips with his..
