The Billionaire's Kept Woman

  Wendy was busy biting on her nails as she stared at the wall. It's like back then in that all-white wall and there's nothing to stare off. She doesn't know why her grandfather sent her here and she got imprisoned again. It's been a week since he last visited her. 

"Where's grandpa?" She asked her butler again. 

"He's in the facility preparing the killing machine." 

"It's been weeks!" She screamed at him. "Let me out of here." 

"I'm so sorry, Miss Wendy. Your grandfather is protecting you." 

"I don't understand." She shook her head full of anxiety. She started tearing. "Why?" 

  The man stared at her for a while. 

"The woman that you provoked, Keira's mother, is someone that we shouldn't take easily. Your grandfather was afraid of her." 

"Afraid of her?" She shouted as her voice broke a little. "Don't be so funny. How can he be afraid of her?" 

"I don't know the full details." The Butler bowed his head. "I think, it's better if you stay here, Miss Wendy." 

  She breathed in and out as her whole body started shaking. 

"I-I want to kill them." Her body was shaking because she's eager to kill them. She was shaking because her enthusiasm for the killing was turned on. "Take me out now. I want to kill them." 

"Would you rather get killed, Miss Wendy?" 

  She stopped and stared at her Butler. 

"Here," he gently placed the medication in front of her. "This will calm you down." He only gave two to her. 

  Wendy took it quickly and drank her water. He then picked her up and put her down on the bed and tucked her in. 

"What's your name again?" 

"It's Gil, Miss Wendy." He said and caressed her hair. "I am a licensed doctor and pharmacist. Your grandfather wanted me to facilitate your health." 

"Alright," She sighed as the medicine started kicking in. "Thank you." 

  He nodded as he watched her sleep. He tapped the metal under his coat and turned back quietly. 

  Wendy started having a nightmare. She was mumbling her father's name. But then she stared at the woman that he was with and left her without saying anything. 

"Dad!" She screamed and looked around the cold room. "Gil! Gil!" She called and reached the beeper. After a few minutes, the Butler came with a tray of food. "Do you still have those pills?" 

"You can't take it for the next twelve hours." He said as he put down the tray. "Please drink your tea, Miss Wendy, and eat your meal. Your grandfather will be here soon." 

"Okay." She said submissively as she only depends on him this time. She slipped off from the bed and went to the bathroom to wash her face. She was sweating although it was cold in her room. Her obsession to kill Keira and her whole family increased. She then stared at Alessandro's handsome photo that she took on the internet from his interview. "Sandro," She whispered and caressed it.

  Keira suddenly felt goosebumps without any reason. She then glanced at her husband who was busy fixing his hair for the party that they are going to attend. The stylist was busy emphasizing her beautiful curls. After they were done with her hair, they retouched her make-up. 

"Thank you." She said and they started packing. Then, one of the stylists took her to the dressing room and helped her with the gown that her mother designed. 

"This is a beautiful dress. The details are amazing." They complimented her. 

"My mother designed it for me." She said, 

"Wow, that's amazing!" 

  They complimented it more and she looked stunning. She put her shoes on and went outside. Her husband was gawking at her. 

"Love, this is tailored and mom designed this." She warned him. He might have torn off the gown after seeing how beautiful she was. It's a slit dress that has a trail of flowers at the back. It's also backless and it showed her flawless skin. 

"I can't wait to show you off." He grinned at her. 

"We will backfire that asshole who bullied you." She grumbled. 

  She took her purse as the stylist also left. Their car was already waiting outside their hotel. They were also escorted with their usual bodyguards and there are another two bodyguards that her mother set up. In the car, Alessandro kept kissing her neck and caressing her back murmuring how sexy and beautiful she was. 

"If you keep doing that, this dress might not take long until later." She scolded him. 

"I'm sorry." He laughed and kissed her lips. 

  They reached the luxurious hotel and went to the 10th floor where the party was. There's also a pool and then the banquet was luxurious too. Keira bit her lip as she eyed the food but then, her husband took her there instead of greeting the businessmen. 

"I think their foods are great." She told him. He took a plate and picked the finger foods for her. He put the small desserts on her plate. He took the stick and fed it to her so it wouldn't ruin her makeup. She hummed and nodded her head. 

"Why eat so soon?" Travis approached them and laughed a little while holding a glass of champagne. 

  Keira covered her mouth and looked past him. 

"Where's Ari?" She asked and searched around. 

"My wife was busy with all of the schedules that you gave to her." He said or more like complaining to her. 

"Hey, it's not my fault that your wife is an alcoholic." She snorted and signed her husband to give more. "I want the Matcha." She said and he took the small slice and put it in her mouth. "Hmm." 

"Okay," Travis looked away. "By the way, are you pregnant?" But they looked at her flat stomach. 

"No, I'm just starving." She answered and reached the glass of punch that her husband took for her. She sipped on the straw gracefully. "Hey, don't impregnate your wife for four months, okay?" 

  He shrugged at her. 

"She doesn't want to have kids after two more years." 

"Boring." She rolled her eyes. 

"Tsk. If we have kids, I wouldn't enjoy unlimited sex." He whispered to them as Alessandro laughed and few people approached them. She fixed her lipstick and smiled at the business people. 

"Mr. De Alegre." The man in an Italian accent greeted him. Alessandro didn't want to greet him but he did in a very businesslike way. The man eyed her and grumbled something in Italian that means, hot. 

  She raised her brows and looked at Travis who sipped on his champagne nervously. He was more nervous about Keira's temper rather than Alessandro's temper. 

"Mr. Edoardo," He shook his hand. But his face turned serious when he kept glancing at his wife. 

"Miss Del Carlo!" A woman exclaimed as Keira smiled at the woman wearing a fancy black nightgown with a fancy feather headdress. 

"Mrs. Vance." Keira smiled and hugged her. "It's good to see you here." 

"You too, my dear." The woman looked at her with amazement. "You looked glorious as always!" 

"Thank you, Mrs. Vance." 

"By the way, I love the upcoming trailer of this opera movie." She complimented. "It's fantastic." 

"I am so glad that you love it. You can visit the theater anytime. 

"Who is she?" Edoardo asked Alessandro who frowned. 

"That's my wife." He said. Then, a secretary stepped forward to Edoardo and whispered something. "Please excuse me, Mr. Edoardo." He walked past him and approached his wife. 

"Alessandro," Mrs. Vance smiled brightly and hugged him. 

"Mrs. Vance, thank you for supporting my wife on this project." 

"Don't worry about it." The old lady said as she laughed beautifully, sounding more like an opera singer. She was indeed once an opera singer but because of some lumps on her vocal cords, she underwent an operation. "I enjoy the trailer and since the tickets are sold out in 24 hours." 

  Alessandro laughed and put his hand on his wife's back possessively. 

"She's amazing when it comes to producing a movie." He said and kissed her temple. 

  They chat further and that's when a few more approached them and greeted his wife. Keira was somehow popular with them as she raised the Golden Age. Also, she's a known strategist and planner. Most of the artists that she handles are top-notch and lots of investors wanted to invest in a certain movie from them. It's not just that, but the way she produced an advertisement was also top-notch. Lots of companies wanted to hold it for them to increase the rating of their company. 

"Miss Del Carlo," Edoardo approaches them, the foreign man who bullied Alessandro by telling him how stupid he was. "I believe that we've met before." 

  Keira only looked at him. 

"No, we haven't met." She said and looked at her husband. "Who is he, love?" Keira asked in the Arabic language, which surprised the man. 

"He's that person~~" Alessandro answered in Arabic. "Someone, whom you want to punch?" 

"Oh," Keira said and glared at the man. "I see." She nodded. "Mr. Edoardo, I believe that you are an Italian? I also have a friend that is half Italian." 

"I-I see." The man nodded and cleared his throat. 

"But you mentioned that my husband was stupid and idiotic because he won't sell that precious land that he owns?" Keira smirked. "I hope not to see you again." She snapped that made a few of the businessmen frown toward Mr.. Edoardo.
