Betrothed To The Cold Billionaire

*2PM IN MIAMI*

Sandy can be seen seated alone in the balcony of her room. It was Saturday so she was home alone. Her parents had left because they had an important meeting at the company.

She really didn’t mind as she was always alone most of the time. The only person that had always kept her conpany was away for a vacation and she didn’t want to disturb her.

Besides, all that was on her mind at the moment was how to prepare for the date with Hillary. She wanted it to be very perfect, she wanted the date to be something Hillary would never forget for the rest of his life.

Hillary had sent her the time and location for the date so all she had to do now was prepare. He even volunteered to pick her up from her home but she declined. She didn’t want him to think that she was still trying to hold unto him.

She stood up from where she was seated when she saw that it was a few minutes till three. The date was around 4pm in the evening so she had to prepare well even though she already had the intention of being late.

“Time to be a changed person Sandy.” She muttered to herself as she entered her walk_in closet.

~BIANCA’S VACATION HOME IN HAWAII~

Bianca was in her room browsing through her phone when she heard a knock on the door.

“Come in.” She said and the door opened, revealing her father.

“How’s my princess doing??” He asked as he entered fully into her room.

“You’re finally free.” Was all Bianca said as she gave him a very short glance before turning her attention back to her phone.

“Are you mad at me princess??” He asked as he walked closer to where she laid.

“I don’t know, you tell me.” She muttered without moving her eyes from her phone.

“You’re angry.” He said as he sat next to her on the bed. Bianca dropped her phone amd sat up to face him.

“Don’t I have a reason to? We came here to spend some quality time together but you have been so busy lately.”

“I know and I’m so sorry about that. I had some things to finish at the company.” He explained sympathetically.

“Then why did you bring me here if you knew so well that you wouldn’t have my time. At least in Miami, I actually have sane people to talk to.” She complained as she recalled the conversation she had with that stranger at the beach.

“I’m so sorry princess. I was so scared about what you would do to yourself if I didn’t give you a change of environment. I wanted you to heal but I guess I did it all wrong.” He apologized.

Seeing him being so apologetic, Bianca started to feel really bad. He only brought her here because she tried to kill herself. He wanted to help her heal but she was still blaming him for things that aren’t really his fault.

“It’s okay dad. I understand.” She muttered.

“Thank you and I promise from now henceforth to always try to make time for you.” He promised.

“You don’t need to try so hard dad. I’m not a baby so I’ll be fine on my own.” Bianca reassured.

She knew that her father still had a lot of unfinished business at the company since their vacation wasn’t planned, that was why he was always at his study so she didn’t want to disturb him anymore.

“But…”

“Like I said, I’m fine. I just need one thing from you.” She said as her lips curved into a very wide smile.

“What is it princess?”

“Your credit card.”

“What for?”

“I want to go out for a stroll and I need some money in case I see whatever I like on the way.” She explained.

“Why are you beating around the bush. Just say you want to go shopping.” He said with a small chuckle while Bianca’s smile increased.

“Alright, you caught me. Can I have your credit card please?” She asked as she stretched out her hand. He dipped his hand into his pocket and brought out his wallet. He opened it and gave her his credit card that was inside.

“Thank you so much dad. I’ll try to spend wisely.” She said as she kissed the card happily.

“Don’t make promises that you can’t keep. I don’t mind how much you spend, I just hope you’ll be back before evening time and also, be safe out there.” He said as he stood up from the bed.

“Sure, I will.” She said, still not taking her eyes away from the card.

“I have to get back to the Zoom meeting I have. Don’t forget to be back before evening.” He reminded.

“Okay dad.”

************************************

Bianca smiled happily as she browsed trough the designer wears showcased in the mall. It’s been so long that she went shopping for things like this so she picked out whatever she liked without bothering about the amount.

Afterall, it was a black card so nothing was too expensive to buy. Also, shopping helped her escape her reality and kept her mind busy. She was still picking out things that caught her fancy when she heard a male voice behind her.

“Need any help gorgeous??” She stopped dead on her gracks when she heard that familiar voice. She never expected to hear it again as she had always been avoiding the place she saw him.

She wanted to leave but wasn’t fast enough as he suddenly stood in front of her.

“Nice meeting you again Bianca.” He said as he smiled, showing of his set of white teeth.

“Landon.”

Hillary sat impatiently in the restaurant as he waited for his date. It’s been more than twenty minutes and he was already getting really worried. Sandy wasn’t someone that would ever be late to an event especially one that she knew he would be there.This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

When his fear had increased to its maximum, he decided to call her. He picked up his phone and was about to dial her number when he heard a soft voice behind him.

“Hillary..” His jaw dropped when she finally stood in front of him. It was the most beautiful lady he had ever seen. He would have woed her but he was on a date. He wasn’t that disrespectful.

“I’m sorry but I’m here for some one else.” He answered and turned his attention back to his phone.

“Hillary, it’s me Sandy.”
