He's My Ruthless Billionaire novel Chapter 59

HE WAS FEEDING ME!?

The biggest Mafia Boss!?

The most eligible bachelor!

The billionaire!

The CEO of Anderson Corporation!

Oops, he is so much.

I ate two bites and then I came to my senses. I quickly backed off. 

"This isn't fair!"

"Everything is fair in love" he clicked his tongue. "And war"

"Oh no, it isn't"

"Huh," he got up. "You aren't meeting her and if you wanna be with me, as my wife, I mean... my lovely wife as you are, don't ask me to let you meet her again" 

I couldn't believe him.

He is threatening me?

Why?

Didn't he promise me to let me meet her... once I marry him?

Although everything he ever said is a lie.

But now?

Why can't he let me meet her now?

He likes me now, right?

"Why?" I stopped him from going, by his wrist.

He got out of my hold. "My choice"

Hailey's POV

"My Choice," he said and I was taken aback.

Has he changed again?

Are we not in the same area-- the one in which both of our opinions mattered equally?

Why is he acting like old times?

Like the dictator-- like the Mafia Boss-- once again?

I lowered my head and nodded.

"Anyways, be ready tonight. Family dinner" 

"Huh? Your family! Yeah!" 

"But" his stern expression made me shut up. "You wouldn't behave friendly with them. Don't try to mingle"

"What- but why?"

"MY. CHOICE"

"Hm," I said, half sad.

He looked at me and raised an eyebrow.

"What happened?"

"Nothing" I went to my room but he followed me.

"Tell me"

"Okay" I exhaled a breath; I didn't know I was holding it. "I don't want to distance myself from your family"

He looked at me with a question mark and I continued.

"Why do you wanna distance yourself?"

He flared in anger at my question, and I also knew it was a mistake.

He suddenly came to me and I took two steps back.

"S-Sorry"

"You know that the only thing I asked you is to not ask me questions about my family and past, right?"

"I-I... I was not the one who asked you willingly! You asked me to tell you what I was thinking!"

"So!? You don't have to think that even!"

"You can't control what I think" I was going crazy over the things he was saying.

"You will do what I say, right?"

I didn't reply. Maybe I didn't have an answer or maybe I gave up.

"RIGHT!?" 

"YES!!" I yelled and he released his grip and laughed. 

"Excellent!"

I immediately caressed my bruised hand.

"So, from tomorrow," he said and I looked at him. "Stay at home"

I was burning with rage.

It is enough.

I have done enough-- of what he says.

I won't follow him.

"So, it was for nothing?" I asked and I got his attention. "All this year? Now, we are back to square one?"

"What do you mean?"

"You don't like me?"

"No"

His words were like an arrow through my heart-- I didn't know it would hurt so much.

"I won't do what you say!" I yelled and that is when he caught my throat with his hand.

He pushed me against the wall and started lifting me by my throat.

I whimpered under his grip as I gasped for breath.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY!?"

I started crying as I thought my end was very near. I was all ready to accept my fate when he suddenly let me go.

I was crying... but I was not afraid.

Trust me, after a while, you won't wanna be afraid anymore.

"I-I don't care about you" I spoke as I caught my breath. "I now realize... you never said 'I love you' to me. That is the reason. Bye... forever" I made my run to the door and without looking back, I ran away-- away to where the wind will take me.
