THE BILLIONAIRE’S PERFECT MATE

Edward’s eyes were fixed on the projector and the picture he was seeing right in front of him. He found it hard to believe and kept denying the fact that it was Ellie in the picture.

“I trust her. She isn’t the one. She can never betray me,” he kept saying in his head, trying to wave off any form of doubt. The audience was already gossiping and saying all sorts of things. Sophia, satisfied with the expression on Ellie’s face and her dismay, smiled with satisfaction.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

“I told you I would pay you back in your own coin. This is just the beginning. Chill and enjoy the ride as the real show is about to begin,” Sophia said, laughing hysterically.

“Why are you doing this to me?” Ellie asked, with tears in her eyes.

“Why am I doing this? You dare to ask me that? You ruined my marriage! You stole Edward away from me! You made life a fucking hell for me and turned me into an object of ridicule, and here you are asking me why I am doing this? This is just the beginning of your torment, darling. Like I said, the real show is about to begin. Just keep your eyes fixed on the screen and watch as your torment begins,” Sophia said with anger in her voice.

Edward watched Ellie from the stage and saw that she was in a devastating state. He saw that she was hurting and needed help, and despite the fact that he was hurting from what he had just seen, he decided to help her out as he hated seeing her in such a devastating state.

“Hello, everyone. Can I please have your attention? There seems to be some kind of glitch that will be fixed as soon as possible. Let us all stop the bickering and stay with me as I continue with the presentation,” Edward said, trying to distract the audience’s attention away from Ellie and make them focus on him. He was able to do just that, and just as the murmuring began to reduce, something else happened, which aroused the audience’s reactions again.

“What is that? Why is she so shameless?” one of the audience members said loudly, which made Edward turn to see what she was referring to. And right in front of him, Edward saw a video of Ellie and the same man from the picture earlier, making love. This shattered Edward’s heart, and at that moment, he started finding it difficult to breathe. He felt like the world around him was about to collapse, and the memories of betrayal and hurt from his past began to flash through his mind. Despite seeing the video right in front of him, he still didn’t believe that Ellie had betrayed him. He kept affirming to himself that it was a misunderstanding.

Ellie, on the other hand, had collapsed on the floor upon seeing the video. She sat on the floor, crying bitterly. All eyes were on her, and at the same time, Sophia was standing beside her, mocking her. Daniel had also witnessed the whole incident and walked towards the exit alongside Allison. He looked at Ellie with disdain in his eyes and left. Allison, on the other hand, didn’t follow Daniel as she had stopped to taunt Ellie.

“What a pity! The first time we met, I told you that you do not belong to the Lion family. I told you a whore like you doesn’t fit to be part of our family. If you had given up then, this wouldn’t have happened. Sophia isn’t someone you should mess with. You should have known your place from the onset. Now that this has happened, I hope you leave Edward alone without being told,” Allison said, smiling, but the response she got gave her the shock of her life.

“And what if I do not want to leave her? Who are you to tell her to leave me? You called her a whore? That shouldn’t be coming from someone who killed her best friend just to marry her husband!” Edward yelled, which made everyone gasp, surprised by the revelation.

“What did you just say?” Daniel, who was already leaving, halted after hearing what Edward had said.

“You heard just right, Mr. Lion. Your long-lost lover Molly is your wife who is disguised as Allison!” Edward yelled.

“What?” Daniel asked, shocked.

“And you know what? Richard is your son and also her son. This woman right here killed my mother, your late wife,” Edward revealed, making Daniel even more shocked.

“Do you have evidence to back up your claims?” Daniel asked.

“I am not interested in proving myself right or proving anybody wrong. I just want to make it clear that nobody has the right to go after her. You do not have the right to tell her whether to leave me or not. She is mine, and only I can condemn her. Nobody has the right to do so, not even people like you,” Edward said, looking at Sophia and Allison disdainfully. Sophia was shocked that even after the revelation of Ellie’s infidelity, Edward still chose to be with her.

“Let’s go home now, darling,” Edward said, stretching his hand to lift Ellie, who had been sitting on the floor the whole time. Ellie was full of doubt and anxiety. She was sitting on the floor, restless and unsure of what the outcome would be. She couldn’t believe that Edward could stand up for her despite her betrayal. She felt guilt and was contemplating whether to take Edward’s hand or not. While still contemplating, Edward moved closer to her and lifted her up in his arms, making his way to the exit with Ellie in his arms.

“You are still going to choose her over me? Do you even know that she is legally married to the guy? Do you know she actually ki…” Sophia said with annoyance, but before she could finish her statement, Edward cut her off.

“Shut the hell up! Yes, I am choosing her over you, and I will choose her over you a million times. Do you think you are better than her? No, darling. She is way better than you. At least she isn’t carrying her husband’s stepbrother’s child in her belly. I know you orchestrated all this, and I would advise you to back off from her. You know what I can do if you don’t,” Edward said, leaving everyone in shock at his revelation. With Ellie still in his arms, he made his way to the exit, leaving the audience who were still present at the party gossiping about the revelations he had made.
