The Billionaire I Fell In Love With

__Next Morning___

Sunlight streamed into Irish’s room, she’s yet to open her eyes but she could feel the warmth of the sun on her skin.

She remained that way for some minutes before finally opening her eyes and sitting up.

There’s only one day left… that was the only thought that crossed her mind as her eyes opened clearly.

One day left and she’s not fully done with what she’s here for.

She has been here for five days now and even though she has gathered some evidences, she needed more.

Her intuition keeps telling her Morgan knows about Carrle’s death but she’s yet to confirm it. Catherine keeps cutting in, she’s glad she’ll be off to Mexico this afternoon, she’ll get to coax Morgan into spilling what she wants him to.

She stretched as she slipped her feet into her footwear.

She adjusted her pajamas and walked into the bathroom.

She was fully dressed by the time Maria walked into her room.

“Good morning ma’am” Maria smiled.

“Good morning Maria” Irish said, she was seated on her dressing chair, styling her hair. “Your breakfast is ready” Maria said.

“Really?” Irish asked glancing at the wall clock.

It’s actually time for breakfast… she had gotten up late.

“Thanks Mariaa, I’ll be at the dining room soon” Irish said and Maria nodded.

“Have a nice trip darling” Morgan kissed Catherine on her forehead.

Irish didn’t say a word, she only sat, impatiently waiting for Catherind to leave already so she can get Morgan to spill those things.

“I want you to see me off to the airport” Catherine said to Morgan.

‘Fuck!’ Irish cursed under her breath.

It’s just feels like Catherine knows of her plans already.

“Alright.. I’ll be back soon, Irish” Morgan said.

“Okay” Irish said.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Catherine walked out of the living room with two of her personal maids and two bodyguards that’ll be going with her to Mexico.

Morgan stepped out after her and Irish let out a deep sigh.

Well.. he’ll be back soon, there’s still a lot of time.

Irish patiently waited for Morgan in the living room.

She had thought it’ll take him minutes but it’s going to two hours and he’s not home yet. Catherine left by 4:30 and now it’s 6:31!

She sighed as she picked her phone and placed a call across Morgan.

“Hey Irish..” He said.

“Hey, where are you?” She asked trying not to make him sense the desperation in her voice. “I’m on my way home already, Catherine stopped by a lot of places to get things, thankfully, she’s gone now” Morgan said.

“Ohh.. i was worried” Irish said.

“I’m sorry to have made you worry” Morgan said, with a smile. She’s worried just because she didn’t see him for two hours, that simply means she cares for him.

“It’s fine” Irish said.

“I’ll see you soon at home then”

“Alright bye”

Irish disconnected the call and dropped the phone beside her.

He’ll be home soon, she felt relieved.

She wonder if Catherine is deliberately preventing her from spending some time alone with Morgan.

Well.. whatever, she’ll be away in Mexico and without interrupting her and Morgan.

Morgan was about passing the phone to one of his bodyguards when another call came in. He glanced at the screen and almost screamed in excitement.

The call is from MAI pharmaceuticals!

Morgan walked into the living room and Irish stood up.

She had planned to go with him to his room before coaxing him to tell her whatever he knew about Carrle’s’s death.

She noticed the excitement on his face as he approached her, he seemed to be in a hurry also.

“I just got a call from MAI pharmaceuticals, they want me to come now” Morgan smiled. “You’ll be awarded the contract?” Irish asked.

“Hopefully” Morgan said.

“So you’ll be going there now?” Irish asked.

“Of course, i need to get dressed and run along. I can’t miss this opportunity” Morgan said. “When will you be back?” She asked.

“I might be late, don’t wait up” He said and patted her shoulder gently before rushing to his room.

Irish slammed herself on the couch knowing she just missed the chance to get to know more about Carrle’s death again.

Morgan might be back late and he’ll obviously be tired to say anything or even respond to her.

Well.. he might not be tired when he’s back, she’s going to wait up.

She can’t miss this again when tomorrow is the last day she’ll be here.

“Ma’am, you need to be careful with your movements so you won’t hurt the baby” Maria said, she was alarmed when Irish slammed herself on the couch.

Irish obviously forget sometimes that she’s pregnant.

“Thanks Maria” She sighed.
