The Billionaire’s Son Chose Me!

Dennis glared down at his son who was sitting before him with his head bowed..

He just watched the news where his son was seen fighting over a plate of food in a local restaurant..

“You have brought disgrace to this family by doing such a childish thing!”

Martin raised his head and met his father’s gaze..

“I didn’t bring any sought of disgrace to the family after all Kyle was also there, we were only trying to help his wife”

Dennis chest rose up and down in anger and before Martin could speak, a slap landed on his cheek..

Rita’s eyes widened, she sprang up to her feet and held Dennis back from striking her son again..

“Have you lost your mind Dennis? do you want to ruin his face?”

“He clearly doesn’t get the fact I’m trying to point out! those Anderson’s living in the ancestral home treated us like thrash.. we are only bearing their name but we don’t really have a relationship with them!”

Martin stood up to his feet, he took a step closer to his father and chuckled..

“You might think that I did all that for my personal gain.. but the truth is that I’m just as calculative as you father and I never let my family down” Martin said and left the room..

Rita touched Dennis arm and gave it a little squeeze “What does he mean by that?”

Dennis peeled her hand away from his arm “He is your son find out and talk some sense into him!”

Arya squealed in excitement as she saw the massive flow in her restaurant..

“I can’t believe this is happening Chloe, a few hours ago this place was about to be closed down”

Chloe waved her phone in Arya’s face “Arya’s delight is currently the most trending topic on the internet.. Martin might have made this arrangement but Mr Kyle Anderson is the real hero here.. I’ll go help out in the kitchen”

Arya had a small smile on her lips, he might be a tough man but there was still a little bit of goodness in him..

“Hmm I bet he listened to every little detail I said last night”

Sam walked up to her and handed her a white piece of paper..

“Ma’am a lady out there asked me to give you this”

Arya stared at the note outstretched to her, she reluctantly collected it and smiled..

“Thanks.. and oh please take the orders of table 15 since Chloe is in the kitchen”

“Okay ma’am” he bowed and left..

Arya stared down at the piece of paper and was about to flip it open when her name was called out..

“Ma’am the ingredients has been chopped we need you at the kitchen urgently”

“I’ll be there soon” She yelled back and inserted the paper at the back of her pants pocket..

“Ma’am this is in the latest collection, should I pack it too?” The sales representative asked showing off a black Hermes purse..

Elizabeth tapped her chin for a while while admiring it..

“Wow! lovely I’ll take it in black and red”

“I’ll take it too!”

Elizabeth and the sales representative diverted their attention to the lady who just walked in..

“Rita!” the name rolled on Elizabeth’s tongue, never for once have they gotten along with each other, from the day they got married to the son’s of the Anderson they became enemies..

“Oh it’s you” Rita said in a sarcastic tone, she stared at Elizabeth in disgust and took a seat opposite her..

“Good day ma’am, this purse has been sold out, it’s a limited brand and this is the last two in the country”

Rita smiled at the female sales rep “Oh good! I’ll take it then!”

Elizabeth was marveled at the level Rita portrayed herself right now..

“don’t be so surprised Elizabeth, after all we are both married into the Anderson’s family so we must learn the spirit of giving”

Elizabeth scoffed, the problem with Rita and her husband was their greed for more wealth, they could do anything possible to claim more wealth from the family..

“You and your husband both own properties worth more than twenty billion and you’re acting like you own nothing” Elizabeth scolded..

“Well you and your husband own even way more than that and you still can’t take out a few million to help”

Elizabeth rose up to her feet, she snapped her gaze to the sales rep..

“Pack the two purse I’ll take them both”

“Yes ma’am” The sales representative replied

“Not on my watch!” Rita declared rising to her feet..

The sales representative smiled politely at Rita “Ma’am you can pick another available brand since this is the last two set of this design”

Rita’s gaze landed on the lady who just spoke, “And who do you think you are to tell me what to do?”

Elizabeth clapped her hands softly and five of her personal bodyguards strode in..

“Show her the way out of the mall”

Rita’s eyes widened in surprise when she was instantly grabbed and dragged out of the mall.. she kicked and threw slaps at the guards but all to no avail..

“This isn’t over Elizabeth I’ll get you for this!”..

Arya returned home earlier than she had planned when she got a call from Mia who called to inform her of Ray’s protest in the house..

She chuckled at the thought of that, each day that kid pulls off different stunts which makes her smile..

She walked into the living room that was oddly quiet “Ray.. Mia.. I’m home”

Instead of getting a response, she got silence in return, her brows drew together as she scanned the whole living room..

All of a sudden the hairs on her neck stood on ends when she felt the presence of someone behind her, she turned immediately and yelled out when she came face to face with a bloody faced clown…

She heard a chuckle coming from a couch, Ray crawled out laughing his guts out..

Mia pulled off the clown mask and high- fived Ray “See that we I told you Arya was really a scaredy cat”

Arya touched her chest that was still beating fast “Not cool guys.. you scared me for a minute there!”

“You were like arghh..” Mia said immitating Arya’s previous expression..

“Good one! so I heard that a little someone was protesting, may I know the reason for the protest?” Arya asked pulling Ray to herself..

Ray tilted his head to the side “You’ll find out real soon Arya just wait for daddy to return”

Arya squinted her eyes back and worth between Ray and Mia, she could tell that the two were bad influence on each other which she confirmed a while ago..

“Hmm something is fishy.. by the way how is your arm honey does it still hurt?”

Ray nodded with a pout “It still hurts a little but I’m a strong boy.. like superman”

Arya ruffled his hair a bit “You silly little thing.. it happens that I’m in a good mood today so I’ll bake a happy cake”

Ray jumped up in excitement “cake? well I’ll go invite Conny for a slice” He said hurriedly and dashed up to his room..

Mia had a small smile on her lips as she stared at the genuine grin on Arya’s lips..

“You know? it’s a good thing that you’re bonding well with Ray, I must applaud your bravery.. I don’t think any lady in her right mind would agree to be in this type of relationship”

Arya’s smile slowly faded away, she diverted her gaze to Mia..

“There’s this special connection I felt the first day he walked into my restaurant.. looking so lost and scared I guess he is the only reason I’m still here”

Mia caught Arya off guard by embracing her so suddenly.

“Thank you Arya.. for coming into their lives, Ray was just a day old when his mum disappeared without a trace, I hope you can fill her spot in Ray and Kyle’s heart”

Arya creased her brow, she pulled back from the embrace to ask more questions..

“Just a day old?” she asked in surprise, what type of mother abandons their child and disappears completely?

Mia nodded “Kyle was the one who raised Ray up all by himself, he did his possible best to be a mother and a father to his son and that’s the reason Kyle adores Ray too much”

Mia cleared her throat when she noticed the sadness in Arya’s eyes.. she placed a finger on her lips..

“Mia!”

Cold sweat broke out of Mia’s forehead when she heard Kyle’s voice behind her..
