The Billionaires Desires novel Chapter 108

Hillary’s POV

I gave him enough time to come clean, I wanted him to come to me and tell me why he has been trying so hard to separate Lawrence and I, but it seems like he has made up his mind, he has decided to sabotage my relationship at all cost and he chose not to tell me about it. It’s been eight months, I mean eight fucking months and he has been sneaking behind my back, screwing me over, sabotaging my relationship. At first, thought that he was just being protective of me, I know how he has tried so hard to protect me and the kids all this while. I know how he saved my life countless times and I actually talked myself into believing that he is doing all this to protect me, but I was wrong. He is not trying to protect me, no. He is simply trying to ruin my life and make me sad forever.

He even delves into arson because of this. He went to Lawrence's house and he set fire to one side of his house, he even went to his company and did the same thing. That fire burnt down a considerable amount of properties in his house and company, it had cost a fortune to rebuild and restore everything that has been lost. For months I watched Lawrence struggling so hard to put up with all the challenges he is facing in his business. It hurt me so much because I know the reason behind his misery. It hurts me so much because I couldn’t tell him about it without sounding so stupid and guilty at the same time. I had to keep such a huge secret from him, for eight months I kept lying to him, pretending not to know anything. I even snuck into his secret office and destroyed the CCTV footage that would have proven that Miguel had been in his house. I’m aiding and abetting this guy and he doesn’t think that I have a right to know why he is doing all these things. I guess he has no excuse to give to me, that is why he has kept mute all this while.

He has no idea that I have been helping him out. He always takes out the main cameras from the buildings, but Lawrence has some secret cameras that he alone could access in his secret office in his bedroom. I guess he doesn’t trust the people around him, including the security guards, so he installed these cameras so he could keep watch of everything by himself. He told me about it out of trust and I betrayed that trust when I went in there and tempered with the footage from his hidden camera. I felt so stupid to be helping him clean up his mess, especially now that he has been hiding things from me. But I had to do it because he is still a friend and we have been through a lot together. Besides, he is like a father figure to the kids and they adore him so much. So, I did what I had to do and I was so glad that Lawrence never caught me, he never noticed that the cameras were tampered with. I got rid of the footage and I left everything the same way I found it, I didn’t touch anything at all. I was tempted to explore the office and see what he has been u to, but I risk the chance of getting caught by him, so I abandoned the idea and left without touching anything. But I decided to put an end to Miguel’s next big plans and I made up my mind to quit helping him in case he decides not to listen to me when I tell him to stop attacking my man.

I made it clear to him that there is nothing he can do to break us apart because I won't give up on Lawrence, not after he has shown me so much love and affection. Despite the fact that he is going through a lot for the past eight months, it never changed his attitude towards me and my kids, he still loves and adores us and that goes a long way to prove to me that he is the right man for me, he is genuinely in love with me and it is time to take this relationship to another level. I can’t believe that I still haven’t had sex with him, Miguel has completely ruined everything for us these past few months, he literally makes sure that we never get into a room, it’s so fucking annoying because I’m not able to control my urges anymore, especially when I’m with him. I was not worried about having sex all these years because I was thinking about Nathan and I was waiting for him, but now that I am beginning to feel relaxed around Lawrence, now that I’ve accepted him into my life I can’t seem to control my urges anymore and the fact that someone is standing between me and my orgasm is so frustrating and annoying.

Lawrence asked me out on a date but I want in the mood to eat out, I wanted to have a private moment with him and I don’t want to make it easy for Miguel to ruin our date once more and that was why I agreed told him that I’d rather we do this in his house because I wanted to eat a good home-cooked meal in his place and I want him to make love to me. It’s been way too long and I don’t know if I can stay celibate anymore. I chose his place because I know that he just got a bunch of guards into his building to tighten his security. That would make it harder for Miguel to break in and ruin our date. I saw the look on his face when I announced to the girls that I would be spending my day with Lawrence, they were more than happy to help me take care of the kids. I watched as Miguels face contorted in anger, but I chose to ignore him and focus more on getting ready for today. Then it struck me that Miguel is not someone that gives up easily, so I decided to keep a close eye on him to make sure he doesn’t do anything stupid. I was right to keep an eye on him, I saw him gathering his tools, ready to step and I knew immediately that he was going to sabotage my date with Lawrence. I’ve had enough of his shenanigans so I stopped him before he got out of the house,

“Going somewhere, Miguel?” I asked me curiously, stopping him from taking another step as he turned to me with a smile that looks so damn fake.

“Yeah, I have something I need to take care of.” he responded swiftly, as he tried once more to reach out for the door. I could see the guilt written all over his face and it annoys me to see that he is trying so hard to keep a straight face and keep up with his stupid lies. I had to put an end to it right now, I had to come clean with him and tell him exactly how I feel about everything that he has been doing to Lawrence and I.

“I know it is you, Miguel, I know you have tried to sabotage my relationship with Lawrence, but you have to stop right now. I have no idea why you are doing it and I don’t even want to know anymore because I have been patiently waiting for you to come to me and tell me why you don’t want me to be with him, but from the look of things, it is obvious that you don’t have any reasonable reason, you simply can’t let me live my life in peace, you just don’t want me to be happy and right now I am only going to tell you this once, it is enough, stop messing with my relationship, stop trying to get us to break up because I won't let that happen and I won’t forgive you if Lawrence leaves me, I won’t Miguel, so please just stop already.” I yelled at him in anger, before turning around to head back inside and prepare for my date with Lawrence.

“Wait,” he called out to me just before I went up the stairs. I stopped my movement, but I didn’t turn around to look at him, I kept my back to him, trying so hard to stand there and listen to him.

“What?” I asked him, still keeping my back to him.

“I'm sorry, Hills. I… I was just trying to keep you safe, I just don’t like that guy and I don’t trust him either.” He stammered out.
