Taming A Billionaire

The third point of view:

Pedro didn't want to be here but he had no choice. If he wanted to keep Isabella by his side, this was the sacrifice he had to make.

"It's nice to see you honored my request to meet," she welcomed him with a smile, already seated.

"Natasha," Pedro hissed at that name as he came to stand in front of her. She was the biggest mistake he ever made. God cursed the day he met her.

"I don't like my guests standing, do well to have a seat," The woman gestured to the seat in front of hers, still with that smile.

"Make this quick," Pedro grumbled as he took a seat. He was as nervous as hell and he showed that by glancing around their surroundings.

"This is one of the best private rooms in here and you can trust me that whatever we discuss here won't leave this room," Natasha said, having read his mind.

Pedro sneered inwardly, if only Natasha knew he was more scared of Isabella finding out than any other person knowing about this. He couldn't even guarantee her - Natasha - life in that situation - Isabella would surely kill her.

"What do you want?" Pedro went straight to the point. He wanted to be done with her and go back to his once peaceful life.

"What do I want?" Natasha scoffed, as if she couldn't believe what he just asked her.

"Is it money? How much is it? A million? Ten million? A billion? Name your price," He asked, ready to pull out a check once she said the word.

"I don't need your money?! Didn't you see my message?" she hollered. 

Pedro sneered, "Like I believe a thing," 

"I'm having your baby!" 

"It is not my baby!" Pedro roared at her, eyes blazing with anger. He knew people like her and she was nothing but a gold digger.

"Have you forgotten that night?" she reminded him. 

Of course not, how could he forget the night he made the biggest mistake of his life. 

Natasha was his previous personal assistant and an efficient one at that. She was a simple girl from a reputable background and he had taken her out of compassion. However, she never failed his expectations and he trusted her until that night. 

Pedro never understood why Isabella never liked Natasha, he guessed she sensed her ulterior motive - Isabella always had a strange ability. But he guessed Isabella never pressed him on the matter because she trusted his judgment. She trusted he would make the right decision and he fucked it up. 

Pedro had business outside the country and he left with Natasha as usual. As with business dealings, there was a bit of drinking with his partners and though he could handle his drink, he failed that night. 

He couldn't explain it but the drink was quite strong and Pedro didn't realize the potency until he had more than enough. Also, his business partners were quite persuasive that night and he eventually got drunk. 

When it was time to leave, Natasha was there to take him to his hotel room. And there in his hotel bed was where the strangest thing happened, Natasha suddenly became Isabella. 

Pedro shook his head hard but no matter what he did, Isabella was right next to him and she was leaning towards him. She kissed him and he kissed her back instinctively. 

However, something was strange. Although that was Isabella's face, the voice was different and so was her body. But then, each time Pedro tried to clear his head, he fell deeper and deeper into the trance and it didn't help matters that Isabella was seducing him. 

By the time Pedro knew it, he succumbed to the moment and it wasn't until the morning that he realized he had a woman in his arms and it wasn't Isabella. And they were both naked. 

Natasha took advantage of his drunkenness, it dawned on Pedro. So he fired her without hesitation and made sure no one would ever hear what happened between them by threatening Natasha's livelihood. Thankfully the incident happened abroad, hence he had the opportunity to leave no traces of what happened.

Pedro returned home to Isabella, waving what happened off as just a bad experience. He didn't tell Isabella as he didn't mean to intentionally cheat on her, Natasha simply tricked him. But then, he settled everything and there was no need to make a big deal out of it.

But now, all his hard work was about to go down the drain because of her again. He would not let that happen.

"What happened between us was a mistake? You took advantage of me -! " 

"You're the one who welcomed me into your bed," Natasha said, "While I was trying to get you out of your clothes, you grabbed me and called me Isabella, and then the rest happened," 

"Stop feeding me those lies!" Pedro bellowed at her to flinch. He arched a brow at her, "How easy do you think I am to manipulate?" he sneered at her, then his expression turned serious as he said, 

"Name your price," 

"I don't need a price! I'm not a gold digger, Pedro!" Natasha cried out, "I just want to bear your child, is that a bad thing to ask?" 

"Yes, it is," He replied bluntly, "The only child I will be having is one from Isabella. So don't delude yourself into such fantasy that I'll be manipulated into taking responsibility for this thing!" 

"A child from Isabella?!" She laughed, "Didn't she say she didn't want one?! I wonder what your family would say when they learn you have a child -!" 

Natasha didn't get to finish the rest of her statement as Pedro suddenly kicked the table aside. The next she knew, he had come up to her and grabbed her by the neck, choking her. 

"Whether this child is mine or not, do well to abort it or I would have you both disappear from the surface of the earth. Problem solved," Pedro threatened her. 

But Natasha sneered at him amid the discomfort, "Tell me now," she said, "How are you so different from your father?"
