The Billionaire's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 91

Anna's POV

He is going to kill him, my subconscious screams.

I run to Aidan and push him away from Tony whose face is already bruised. He charges towards Tony again who springs up immediately and gives him a blow in the face. I gasp.

"Stop it, Aidan. Please." I beg in tears.

Aidan is still fuming in anger. I don't even want to think of what he is thinking right now and what he is feeling but I know he is acting rashly because he is jealous. I can see it in his face.

"Don't you dare touch her again? She is my wife. She can't marry you, idiot. She is only for me to touch, you idiot!" He announces and kicks him again.

I wish the ground would open right now and swallow me. I never knew Aidan would spill the beans this way. I don't want to look at Tony and see the disappointment on his face but I know I have to help him up.

I move close to him and kneel down to help him up, acting like what Aidan said is nothing and has no meaning.

Instead of letting me help him, Tony shoves me away. I fall on my buttocks and wince. I hear Aidan's footsteps and I know he wants to beat Tony again for pushing me away aggressively.

"Please, Aidan", I beg him, standing up abruptly to face him and stop him from hitting Tony. I have stopped crying.

He sighs and moves away.

"You have done enough harm already. You can leave now." I tell him and move away from his front.

"You are my wife, Anna and I love you. This jerk doesn't love you, all he wants is your body", he says with gritted teeth.

"Just go", I am irritated with his presence.

He is always ruining everything for me. I stare at him coldly before he goes out and I turn to face Tony. I want him to at least say something.

He points towards the door that Aidan took out while coughing. I can see the look of disbelief on his face. "Is he saying the truth? Are you married to him?"

I sigh heavily. I should have told him before now. How do I explain things to him now? Will he even give me a listening ear? Will he believe my story or is he going to call it a cock and bull story?

"So you have been married all along and I asked you the other day if you were married and you said no?"

"No, Tony", I reply sharply. "I wasn't married then."

"You were not married then? Can you even hear yourself out? You are a fucking married woman and you made me believe you were single?"

"Let me explain, Tony", I try to get close to him. I need to tell him this isn't my fault, my only fault is for leading him on and making him believe I am single.

"Explain what, Anna?" Explain why you told me your husband is your brother? Or explain why your brother is here to beat me up? What have I done to deserve this? Is loving you a crime?" He shouts and stands up.

"No", I yell back. "This isn't my fault, either."

"Then, it's mine, right? Yes, it is. It is my fault for loving the wrong person. It is my fault for being too forward...."

"Shut the fuck up and listen to me", I cut him short. I can see his tears and his bruised face gradually swelling.

"We don't love each other. This is meant to be a marriage of convenience", I start.

He chuckles and walks around the room. He tightens his fist and I know he is pissed at me. If I was a man, he would have hit me.

"I won't be surprised if you have a child already."

"I do have a child", I remark, with no remorse. I have regrets about my marriage with Aidan but I can never regret giving birth to the most precious gift life has offered me.

"What?!" He exclaims. "You have a child?!" He points at me. "Yet, you are saying this is a marriage of convenience? What stupid convenience....."

I know there is no point in trying to explain myself to him anymore. He will not listen, his sense of reasoning has been clouded by anger and this is not a good time for explanations.

I twirl back to go out since he is not ready for my explanations. I shouldn't cry. This was meant to happen. I am glad the truth is out now, I have nothing more to hide, all thanks to my stupid husband.

I am thinking he is going to call me back and apologize but he didn't. I am thinking he will block my way and ask me to marry him still, despite how hurt he is but he isn't doing anything.

I walk out and turn back to look at his house. I have no idea what would have happened if Aidan hadn't appeared. This was supposed to be another beautiful beginning but here I am. It has been ruined again.

"Get in, let me take you home", I hear Aidan mutter. I didn't even realize he is still around. I thought he has gone just like I instructed him to.

I ignore him and walk to the door. He is responsible for everything, every single misfortune of mine.

'As well as the precious gift you said life has given you', my subconscious ask.

"Anna?" He shouts after me.

I keep walking till I am out of the gate and moving to the street to get a cab home. I don't know how I am walking because I feel numb with no emotions. I have forgotten all about Aidan when his car stops at a distance in front of me.

"Anna, please get in", he pleads. "It's late already and you might not get a cab home."

I did not acknowledge him or answer, I just keep walking.

"Anna?" I hear him slam the car door shut and the next minute, he is in front of me, blocking my way.

"Let me go", I have to force myself to open my tightly closed lips.

"I'm sorry, Anna. I did not mean to do this. I was just angry", He apologize.

"You called me a bitch because you were angry, now you ruined a beautiful moment because you are angry again. I am done, let me go." I retort.

"He was meant to know anyway, please, let's go home."

"Let me go, Aidan", I shout in anger when he blocks my way again with his arms spread out wide.

"Please, Anna. I love you." He confesses to my amazement. Tears begin to spill as I watch him in shock.

Is this real? Does this idiot love me? After how many months of trying to make him like me the way I do? After I have given up on him? Is he doing this to seduce me again? To let me stay? I am not stupid.

I place my hand on his chest and push him away. He falls to the ground and I use the opportunity to run. I run fast with all my might, I want to be away from him.

He is back on his feet within minutes and chasing after me. I increase my pace and cross the road in a hurry, hoping I won't get hit by a car.

I continue running, feeling relieved that I can no longer hear his name. I am thinking he has given up and gone back to his car.

This is what I expect of an egoistic man like Aidan. But what I hear instead is the screeching sound of a car and someone calling his name. I stop abruptly and look back to see Aidan flying in the air on the road. He falls immediately on the hard floor and begins to bleed.

"Aidan?!" I shout with my voice echoing around the entire area.
