Sold To A Billionaire

Cleaning Up His Mess

“I apologize. I know that words can’t describe everything. But I do all of these things for you and for our daughter. You can call me whatever you want: jerk, coward, whatever. But please, all I’ve ever wanted is to be with you. I know I shouldn’t hide things, but things are getting hard. I don’t want you and Hela to get in the middle of my battle.” What he said took Zoe by surprise. She isn’t ready for it. She is at a loss for words. She chuckled. No. Not this time. She thought that she was ready. But she’s not. She thought it was easy. And she wasn’t sure that Helios would tell everyone everything. The man seemed different. His face turned dark, and he made a fist. Zoe gave a head shake. She was so sad that she was about to cry. “Please leave,” she begged. “My life with my daughter makes me happy and content. M-Maybe you forget that y-you are a dangerous person. If...if your organization knew this. That…” her eyes started to well up with tears. “I don’t want to get in trouble with my daughter.” She wept. “Please don’t come near us.” He felt sorry for Zoe when he saw her crying. He went up to her. He put his hand on her chin and looked up. They saw each other. He could see the pain she had been trying to hide. “Please... talk to me again. I’m not married to Chloe. Our wedding is a sham. I promise to look out for you.” Zoe gave a head shake. Even though what he said is worth remembering. She can’t change the fact that he works for the mafia, which is a risky group from which the only way out is to die. She told him, “You can’t be a father to my daughter,” and pushed him away. She wants to cry out loud, but her daughter is sleeping. Then Helios gave her a tight hug. He begged, “Please...” Because of what she heard, Zoe cried even more. “Please don’t come near us, Helios,” she said through clenched teeth as Helios continued to hug her and comfort her. And Zoe is trying hard to get away from Helios’s hold. She fell down and sobbed a lot. Helios was still there, wrapping Zoe’s body in his broad arms.

“Please, stop making me mad. Please don’t come near us. I’m fine without you. “Helios, we don’t have a real relationship,” she said. It hurt, but it was the truth, and it was the only way she knew to let go of the pain from their past. Helios’s left eye shed a tear. When he heard Zoe’s last words, he felt a pain in his chest. He has always been afraid of being turned down. Since then, he has never tried to love anyone else. That he was scared to say how he really felt. Because he was scared of being turned down. With his work, he can quickly get by, but being turned down by the person you love, he can’t take it. He has always gotten what he wants all his life. If what Helios wants, Helios gets. All he has ever been through is that. Not until a girl named Zoe made him fall in love. And things went wrong in his life. So this is how people feel when they find out they have a terrible fate? They were in terrible pain. Their bad choices are hurting them. Why can’t they just be happy? Do they have to fight for what they really want? Then, it’s true that you don’t always get what you want. You have to work hard to get there. Before you can be happy, you have to go through all the pain. They might not be meant to be together right now. It could have all been a dream. A dream that won’t come true. But this is just a short time that they can spend together; this is just a passing moment. The person she loved just gave her a chance to be with her. “Okay. Okay. Please just stop crying. Your mom is out of town, so you and your daughter are alone. Just let me stay here until they come back. I promise that I won’t be a bother. Just... just be the way you used to be with me. He asked, “Or do you want me to call Cindy?” He moved away from her so that he could look into her eyes. Zoe wiped her tears away and then looked at him. “No. I’m fine. I’m fine with Hela. You can go,” she told him as she stood up. Even though they’re only a few blocks away, she doesn’t want to bother Cindy with her personal problem. She straightened out her wrinkly dress. She turned away from him and walked toward her daughter. Hela Selene was soundly asleep. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

This was how Helios looked at her. He hoped that things wouldn’t be so hard. “I love you,” he told her before turning his back on her and walking toward the door. If leaving now was one step toward winning Zoe’s heart again, he would do it. Maybe he should first clean up the mess he made with the organization and his father.
