The Billionaire's secret Love by Manogyna Marthi (self help books to read .TXT) 📖

An instant thought crossed my mind. I was losing many business deals staying single. Marriage became a forced option for me but I wasn't interested in any kind of a tie-up after the departure of 'love of my life' and thus Veronica became the best choice since she wasn't attracted to sex and love life with me.

Both of us accosted each other for family dinners and social gatherings and satisfied our requirements with mutual trust and agreement. But inwardly we had our own private lives and never crossed that border line in interfering in each other's personal matters. Veronica is caring towards Abigail and that is the most important and sole thing I expected from her apart from giving public appearance as my wife and posing a happy family. In return I gave her the space she required in maintaining her relation with her girl friend. Both our families did not know anything about our unique relationship.

Veronica's girl friend Sara is a costume designer working for an international firm in Brisbane. Both of them had been in a relationship since last seven years but Veronica's family was against it. Her grandfather's will stated she could obtain legal right on their family property only when she is married to a 'real' man. For the world outside we presented ourselves a happy family while deeper inside we were fighting our own personal demons using each other for mutual gains.

Present

"What did mummy say to you Abby?" I asked Abby plaiting her hair in two long ponies. She squeals turning to me in excitement. "Mummy will be back at home tomorrow morning by eight, daddy." I smile at my 'little bundle of joy'. "That's good. Now let us finish our breakfast fast so that we can go for a swim."

Though I was smiling for Abigail, deep down in my heart is an empty space always left vacant since the time she left me.

My beautiful wife Angelica.

Dear Readers,

The loss of Angelica is heart wrenching but please don't get disheartened and continue to read the story. There is always light after darkness.

A hint for the readers who are cursing me right now, read Fractured published in between the chapters, you will find a solace.
