Falling For The Billionaire Heir

Chapter 48



Becky finished reading Colin’s message and sent three love emojis back to him. She set her phone down on her dressing table and went outside to check if Mrs. Spencer was still around. Becky chuckled, seeing that the two women were still chatting away, oblivious to any other thing as usual.

Becky returned to her bedroom and brought out the novel she had been reading from the tote bag she brought with her. She left the room and walked into the kitchen. She slid open the back door and stepped out onto the back patio, admiring the beautiful, luscious grass. With her book in hand, she plopped down on the garden chair and reclined on the seat to continue reading.

The usual pity for Helen, the major character, already welled up in Becky even before she opened the pages. She couldn’t just imagine being forced to get married to a man she wasn’t in love with…

Helen returned to school on Monday morning and called Tommy to let him know she was back. He called her immediately, and they spoke for over an hour. They agreed to meet up for drinks after Helen’s last class the following day, and they did so. They continued to talk everyday on the phone after that. Helen was happier than she had ever been since she got married.

Jane, who had promised never to get involved in her friend’s love life, watched with bated breath.

On Saturday, they hung out at his place instead of going to town as he wanted. His roommate was not around, so he had the place to himself for the weekend.

After she got there, she helped him to water the flowers in front of his flat. It was her first time going there since she got married. They actually planted them together and nurtured them together until she had to break up with him.

“I can’t believe this,” she covered her mouth with her hand. “You are allowing our flowers to die.”

He wanted to tell her she caused it, but he stopped himself in time and said, “I’m sorry,” as he put a hand on her back. “I keep forgetting to water them.”

“I understand.” She looked forlornly into his eyes. “I do.” She reached for his hand and squeezed it hard.

“The hose is at the back,” Tommy said and started moving away. “Let me get it so we can water them together.”

He went to the back of the house and returned with the hose, which they fixed to the tap and watered the plants. After which they went inside.

Everything looked kind of different when she walked into his little living room, though everything was in the places it used to be.

“Things look different in here,” she commented as he shut the door.

“You just think so,” he walked further into the room. “I didn’t change a thing.”

“I know.” She placed the brown paper bag containing their brunch on the coffee table. “Let’s eat, I’m famished.”

“How is your sister?” Helen asked him as they started eating.

Tommy and his elder sister, who often visited him in school, were very close, being the only children of their parents.

“She’s fine,” Tommy answered, with his fork midway to his mouth. “She recently got engaged.”

“Wow,” she looked into his face. “That’s so nice. When is the wedding?”

“She and her fiance are looking towards Christmas.”

“That’s good,” she said and drank some water.

“Will you come?” He looked perceptively into her eyes.

Helen smiled a bit. She wasn’t sure if his family members would want to see her after what she did to Tommy.

“I don’t know.” she set her fork on the plate. “Maybe.”

“You think my family will not welcome you?” He reached out and touched her hand.

She nodded.

“You don’t have to worry about that,” he refilled their cups with water. “They will. They already accepted what happened; they understand.”

She had visited his family several times during her three years relationship with Tommy. His parents lived less than thirty minutes away. In fact, she was with the family for thanksgiving shortly before Darin came along.

“So will you come?” He looked into her eyes. “You can even come with your husband.”

“I…”

The ringing of Tommy’s phone cut her short.

“Just a minute,” he raised up a finger and picked up his phone.

It was his roommate. He was calling to tell Tommy that a classmate of his would come later in the evening to pick up something in his room.

“It’s okay,” Tommy said into the phone. “I will be around. I’m not going anywhere today.” He disconnected the line and returned his phone to where he picked it. Becky was already in the kitchen, stacking the plates they used and the others she met in the sink into the dishwasher.

Tommy walked up behind Helen and wrapped his arms around her. “Tommy,” Helen gasped. She didn’t know he had walked into the kitchen.

“Shh… relax,” he pulled Helen back against him and held her. “I just want you to relax. I can see how agitated you are since you got in here.”

Becky blew out a nervous breath. She didn’t know he noticed how she felt. She couldn’t even say why she was tensed up, maybe because it was the first time she would be in his apartment after months or because everything in her was telling her that being there with him was wrong. But she wanted to be there with him today…they could still be friends, right?

She took a deep breath and settled back against him.

His hands moved to cup her breasts at that moment, his cock throbbed against her back.

“Tommy,” she moved away from him. “Go ahead to the living room. I will join you soon.”

She needed some time to get hold of her feelings.

“I’ll be waiting for you,” he breathed raggedly and kissed her on the neck twice before he left.
