The Billionaire's Secret Lover

Chapter 81: Michael

“ Deborah”

I paused as soon as I heard Nina call that woman's name. I was on my way back from chatting with

Vino and Victor who were leaving for Italy as they have pending issues to get to.

I was about to come back to take Nina to the hotel where the reception was when I heard her whisper

that name. I knew Nina wouldn't ever call her if she was not here which was why I moved closer to her

and pulled her close to me seeing that she was shivering from fear...

“ It's okay, Tesoro. I'm here now” I whispered to her as I hugged her close while kissing her hair with my

eyes closed. I hate it when she's so afraid. Damn! That stupid Private Investigator that couldn't get a

job done. After paying a huge sum of money to him, he couldn't find me a woman, just a woman in the

same country we were in.

I signal to John who was standing in front of the church giving me some alone time with Nina. He

rushed to my side as he waited for my order.

“ Have Mark bring the car?” I told him before turning to Nina who was a bit calmer now.

“ Amore, where did you see Deborah?” I asked her just as Mark pulled the car over while John stepped

out from the passenger's side to open the door for us...

“ There,” Nina replied as she pointed to the far corner of the garden where a large shrub tree was. I

nodded at her before ushering her into the car. I turned to John who was still at the door looking at me.

“ Deborah was here. I want you to find her” I told John who nodded at me before going to find Don

while I got into the car as Mark pulled out of the church taking the direction of the hotel.

“ There you are!!” Lillian screamed as soon as she saw us pulled over at the parking lot of the hotel.

She came over to drag Nina off the car about to get back to the hotel but I stopped her.

“ Lillian,” I called to her, causing her to turn to stare at me, surprised that I was referring to her instead

of Nina. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

“ Yes Michael, any problem?” Lillian asked me as she came over to me, a bit surprised that I wanted to

talk to her without Nina being aware of it.

I signaled Mark to help Nina into the hotel. Mark nodded and went to bid my request. I watched as

Mark guided Nina into the hotel, I waited until they were out of earshot before turning to whisper to

Lillian.

“ Please, I need you to watch Nina. I'm afraid that Deborah might be here” I told her running my hands

through my hair in frustration. I wanted to cancel this reception but everyone was eager for it, even I

was eager to see how my wife looked in her dress.

" Deborah?" Lillian exclaimed in shock. I watch as she turns to look at Nina's retreating with sadness

on her face. If only there was anything I could to find Deborah by myself, I would have done that. I don't

want to see that feeling of fear in her eyes anymore.

" Yes Lillian, I'm afraid Nina saw her at the church earlier. I don't know what to do anymore" I confess to

Lillian as I turned to see most of the wedding guests already arriving with their wives and girlfriends,

they were mostly business associates and employees. They stopped to congratulate me before going

into the hall.

"Don't worry about anything Michael, I'll keep her safe. Moreover, I'm sure Deborah wouldn't want to try

anything in such a large crowd of people" Lillian told me, patting me gently on the shoulder before

turning to walk into the hall.

I sighed heavily as I turned to take in John who was getting out of Don's car. They both came over to

meet me" Any news?" I asked him without waiting for him to get to me.

“ We couldn't find her. I guess she had escaped before we could get to her but I've strengthened

security outside the hotel. Nothing to worry about” John replied as he walked closer to me.

“ Okay. Thank you” I told him and walked into the hall where everyone was seated awaiting the Master

of Ceremony.

I smiled at my parents as I walked to sit on the chair across from them. Beside me was an empty seat

where Nina was supposed to sit. My heart leapt in my throat as I looked frantically around, scared,

wondering where Nina could be? Did Deborah get to her already? No, she couldn't be that fast, could

she?

“ Are you alright? ”

I turned to take Danny, who was looking up at me with concern on his face“ I'm alright. Where's Nina?”

Danny burst out laughing as he patted me on my shoulder “ Relax Michael, Nina's with Lillian. She isn't

going anywhere tonight”

I glared at him as I got the hidden meaning behind his words. I turned to look at the for where the MC

was ushering in my wife. MY WIFE, I love the sound of that. I can't believe I'm finally married to her.

I've prepared a surprise for her tonight! I'm sure she's going to like it.

“ Hello husband ”

I turned to hear my wife's voice as she greeted me before settling beside me. I couldn't help the smile

that spread across my face, I love Nina and I'll spend the rest of my life telling her that...

“ You look ravishing, Mrs Thompson. I can't wait to have you to myself tonight ” I told her flirting with

her. I laughed out loud as soon as I saw the blush and longing appearing on her face. I'm glad to see

that she wants me as much as I want her to...

“ Stop that, Michael. You're so naughty ” Nina glared at me as she tried to hide the blush on her face

but it was so evident to me.

“ And you love the naughty me, Cara” I called teasingly to her as she glared at me feigning annoyance.

I dragged her to the stage where the MC was calling us to come cut our wedding cake. I still don't

understand why mom will order such a huge cake for a one-day wedding but I'm glad Nina loves it...

Two hours later, we were through with all the hassle of the wedding reception. I didn't know it was so

stressful but I was glad that I'm doing this with the woman I'm in love with. I can't imagine myself doing

this with Deborah. I shudder from the thought of even doing such a thing with her.

“ Congratulations Nina. How does it feel to be Mrs Thompson?” I turned to see most of the television

crews interviewing my new wife. I smiled as I saw her handling her interview with confidence. I left her

there as I went in search of my two naughty groomsmen.

“ Here comes the groom. Finally, he has our time” Andrea called to me as he and Danny burst into

laughter. I glared at them before settling into an empty seat beside Danny.

“ Congratulations, Michael”

“ Thank you,” I replied, smiling at Mika who was seated on Andrea's lap with an excited smile on her

face.

“ So, guys what's up? It's everything ready?” I turned to look at both Danny and Andrea who nodded

understanding my questions.

“ I've asked Lillian to guide Nina to the meeting spot tonight. We are going to have to bypass your

parents especially your mom” Danny explained causing me to groan in annoyance.

“ Thank you for reminding me that, Danny” I glared at him causing both him and Andrea to burst out

laughing...

“ Wait a minute. Did your mom say that? That she would spend the night in your villa to make sure that

you consummate your marriage?” Andrea asked again to be sure he heard alright.

“ Ask him, I'm still trying to wrap my brain around that. Like he wouldn't do anything tonight” Danny

replied as I ignored them. I knew they were both trying to loosen me up but I was still annoyed with

mom for bringing that up and even saying it In front of my two naughty friends.

“ That's why I need your help tonight. I want to elope with Nina without anyone knowing except for all of

you, okay?”

“ Don't worry about it. We are all with you on this one” They both replied as I nodded at them. One thing

still needed my attention before I could leave for my honeymoon which was Deborah. I hope John and

Don find her on time. I hope she won't follow us to Greece.

***

I stood on the rooftop awaiting Nina. It was some minutes past ten. All the wedding reception had come

to an end, my parents were waiting for us at the parking space to drive us home which was why Danny

took us to the rooftop where my chopper was waiting to take us to the sea.

“ Why isn't she here yet?” I asked Danny, my eyes taking in the gold watch on my wrist. I had changed

out of my suit and was now in a casual Tommy Hilfiger's short and matching top, white sandals

adorned my feet as I paced through to and fro the rooftop.

“ Sorry I'm late” I turned to take in Nina who walked over to us. She had changed out of her dress and

was now in a casual red body con gown.

“ It was hard escaping from my parents. Dad was suspicious that he tagged along with me all through

the night, I had only escaped with the excuse of using the restroom” Nina explained as she handed her

overnight bag to Charles who went to put it in the chopper.

“ And Lillian?” Danny asked Nina, I could see that he was anxious to get back to his wife and son.

“ She's with my parents. They are in the lobby” Nina replied smiling at Danny before going to the

chopper. Charles helped her up as they both waited for me.

“ Thanks for today, Man. I really appreciate” I told Danny, grasping him in a tight hug.

“ It's alright, Michael. That's what friends do, enjoy your honeymoon” Danny replied as he pulled out of

the hug already going back to the hotel.

“ I will. Extend my appreciation to both Andrea and Lillian, okay?” I told him, Danny nodded as he

waved me off. I smile at him before walking into the chopper where my wife was waiting for me. I pulled

her into my embrace and slammed my lips on hers as Charles pulled off the rooftop.

“ Where are we going in that?” I turned to see Nina looking at my white and gold yacht which cost a

huge sum of money with a weird expression on her face.

“ Ina” She whispered as she got the name on the yacht written in bold letters before turning to wrap her

hands around me“ Why are all your prized possessions named after me?”Nina asked me as I turned to

kiss her on the forehead. I watched my captain and his crew get all the luggage onto the yacht.

“ Because you are my world and there's no me without you. My whole being is centred around you” I

told her bending to peck her lightly on the lips.

“ I can't wait to have you to myself, amore. Hope you're not seasick?” I asked her as she shook her

head in negative. I smiled glad that she wasn't going to be sick as I planned on using her until our days

on the sea were over.

“ Everything is ready, Mr Thompson. We are good to go'' Lance, my captain called us over as I nodded

at him before guiding Nina into the yacht.

“ Welcome on board, Mr and Mrs Thompson. Congratulations on your wedding” Lance greeted us as I

nodded at him, impatient to get my wife to our room.

I dragged Nina into the room and undressed her hurriedly, causing Nina to giggle in anticipation “ So

impatient, Mr Thompson”

“ You can't blame me, Mrs Thompson. It's your body, it drives me crazy” I told her, silencing her protest

with my lips as I spent the night telling and showing her things that I would be doing with her for years

to come...
