Taming A Billionaire

Chapter 123 - One Hundred And Twenty-three : Send Maya To Her Father



The third point of view 

Her face lit up immediately when her call went through. Kim moved her face to the side and cleared her throat before she spoke in a sweet, gentle, and clear voice. 

"Reporter Ann, it is me, Kimberly. I have another news about Maya that would definitely pique your interest and I can assure you this time  - "

"I'm sorry, but I'm not interested "

"What? " She must have heard wrong. 

"I can't publish any more denigratory articles about Maya " The reporter disclosed and she was astounded. 

"Why? Why can't you? Is the money I sent not enough? Just name your price and receive the cash right away"

"Don't you get it !" She spat, " It's an order from the higher-ups else I'll lose my job. In fact, I'm regretting publishing the other articles already, thanks to this incident, I have been removed from the promotion list I was previously nominated for "

Kim gulped, then scratched the back of her hair exasperatedly, " What do you expect me to do then?! " the gentleness in her voice disappeared. 

"What do I expect you to do? Leave the poor girl alone! Even if she's an illegitimate daughter, she's still your half-sister and a human, so why do you hate her so much? Besides most of the news, you sent there was nothing wrong with it if I hadn't tweaked here and there, all because I was so blinded by the tempting - "

"Don't give me that bullshit!" Kim sassed at her through the phone," I have invested so much in this, so you can't give up  now "

"Write it yourself then! " Reporter Ann shouted at her and ended the wall. What a lunatic! *Sob* her promotion. 

"Ahh! " Kim screamed and pulled her hair, though not tight enough to pull off some strands. 

Breath heavy, her chest rose up and down from anger. "How dare that lowlife! " She fumed. 

Kim was smart otherwise, she wouldn't have graduated as an attorney. It was obvious to her that someone was still protecting Maya from the background.

Was it Niklaus? Or had that bitch gotten herself another sugar daddy? Kim guffawed, but the malicious intent in her eyes was apparent. 

It seems she underestimated that bitch. If Kim had known this would happen, she would not have let that lowlife leave their residence four years ago. 

Maya was not worthy of associating with the likes of Niklaus' talk more getting into his bed. But she had gotten into his bed, hadn't she? That realization pricked Kim's heart and made her bite down on her lips drawing blood. 

Yes, she was married but she couldn't enjoy a happy sex life. If she had known from the start of their relationship, she wouldn't have married that fool. 

Kim had always wondered why John never wanted to bed her during their courtship. She had thought it was because of his religion since he was an avid churchgoer, never did she know he just couldn't achieve an erection - he had erectile dysfunction

During their relationship, she didn't complain about the lack of sex because John was well-to-do and the man loved her like crazy - she bet he couldn't survive without her. But now she has found out the truth? She was totally done with him; already she had sent the divorce papers. 

Because their marriage was brief and childless, neither was mandated to pay each other maintenance but walk away with the assets they brought into the marriage. 

Yet she knew John, he was too kind-hearted for his own good and made sure to heap a lot of blame on him for their failed marriage - he would willingly and surely pay her a hefty alimony. 

Still yet, Maya had no right. How dare she get such a hot and capable lover while she ended up with an impotent husband - It was an insult to her. 

Kim conjured Niklaus in her head, that man that looked like a sexy greek god. 

She had seen his perfectly sculpted body in numerous types of magazines and the internet. He sure had no problem flaunting his six-pack abdomen and well-toned body.

That night he had invaded their property, she had been so scared to look up at his face, his expression then was so livid she feared for her life. 

Kim felt a sudden pang in her chest, Niklaus couldn't be in love with that fool right? No, that wasn't possible. Niklaus loving her? Pfft, what a joke!  

Maya was nothing but his plaything, an object to satisfy his desire. He only wanted her body right? Yes, she was a slut .

The only reason Niklaus had been angry that night was because her family had touched one of his sex toys without his permission. Haha, that must be it - not because he loved her. 

Moreover, they had broken up already so Maya was now completely out of the picture.

An evil smile curled Kim's mouth to the side as she thought of all the fun she would have with Maya now she was no longer under Nik's protection. 

Once Tina takes all of Niklaus's attention away from his ex-mistress, she would have the opportunity to deal with that bitch the way she wanted. 

Done destroying Maya, she would now plot against Christina Devon. It was unwise to face Tina head-on, that haughty socialite was so smart and untrusting, the best approach would be through Niklaus himself. 

Niklaus was a chronic player - he practically sleeps with anyone with a v@gina - and in the guise of being Tina's friend, she would take advantage of that chance and get into his pants. 

Thankfully she had a hot body with enough experience and skills, so she would entice Niklaus with her body and give him an unforgettable ride - Well, an unforgotten adventure for both of them since he wasn't inexperienced either. 

After that, she would hold onto Niklaus firmly and in no time, kick Christina out of the picture too. Though fighting Tina would be a tough battle but she has started all preparation and was confident she would win. 

Who knows, she might end up becoming Niklaus's legal wife and then have the power to control such a mass of wealth; her mom would be so proud of her. 

Kim's heart swelled with joy, she couldn't wait to get started on this plan of hers. But first, she had to rebuild her ruined reputation in his eyes. 

Right now, Niklaus sees her as nothing but a nuisance that assisted in kidnapping his ex-mistress, so changing his view on her would influence her future plans positively. 

Suddenly a knock on her door was heard, distracting her mental calculations. 

" Come in " She ordered whosoever was on the door.

"Young miss " It was one of their maidservants. 

" What is it? " Irritation was sensed in her tone. 

"Elder is here "

A frown outlined Kim's face, grandma? What was she doing here? 

"Alright, I would be down there," She said to the maidservant who left right away. 

Kimberly went into deep thoughts, What did that Old woman want this time? And why request for her, she wasn't even her precious Maya.

Kim was neither close nor distant with her grandmother, their relationship was just so-so. Moreover, why improve her relationship with that old hag who obviously loves that illegitimate fool called Maya more than her own untainted granddaughter. 

"Well, let's go see what she wants nevertheless " 

And so Kim made her way downstairs to meet her grandmother who was sitting on the chaise lounge with a stern expression and her walking cane at the side.

"Grandmother " Kim called and smiled up at her. She had put a lot of effort into dressing up just to meet her. Since Maya wasn't here any longer perhaps, the old woman would squeeze out a bit of love for her. 

Strangely, her face remained neutral but that didn't demoralize Kim. Just a few flatteries and she bet the grumpy woman would loosen up, she thought. 

"Granny you look so beautiful today, did someone special wink at you on the way here by chance " Kim attempted a joke but what met her face was a resounding slap. 

Kim stood rooted to the ground, shocked to the core. Her mouth was agape while she palmed her red cheek. 

Her lips trembled "G-grandma " 

"I don't want to hear that name from your mouth ever again! "Grandma Octavia warned her severely, her old weak body shaking from the rage in her heart. 

She roared," You think I wouldn't know?! How could you be so cruel to your sister? Releasing such deforming news about her?! "

"What's going on here? " Someone questioned defensively from behind. 

"Mom" Kim cried and ran into her embrace, finally bursting into aggrieved tears. 

"Grandma hit me "

"Seriously Mom? " Kim's mother arched an annoyed brow.

"Angela !" Grandma Octavia roared, "You're making a very huge mistake "

"No, the only mistake I ever made was listening to your gibberish and giving birth to that prick! " She yelled back. 

Realizing being angry would do nothing but complicate her heart issues, Octavia calmed down but said to her daughter determinedly. 

"I want Maya back in this house "

"That would only happen after  I'm dead " Angela retorted. 

"Then I might as well send her to her father! "

There was a shocked silence. Angela unconsciously took a step back, fear and anger flashing through her.

Grandma Octavia smiled bitterly, "You don't think I've forgotten about that night, right? "
