THE BILLIONAIRE'S BABY MAMA

"Roxanne! Please come back to me" The tears flowed freely down his cheeks, falling tiredly on his tuxedo as he knelt in the sun close to his Lamborghini Sian, ignoring the passersby who couldn't cease to stare, mouth agape at the romantically diminishing sight. Tears gathered in her eyes, mirroring his feelings. "I want to, but I can't!" The words ceremoniously led to the outpour of tears, some lucky ones falling straight into her mouth. "If only he had come earlier? Maybe I would've taken him back" The painful thought cut through her chest, tearing down the arteries that guarded her heart from romantic entanglement "Why can't you come back? My heart beats only for you. Your sight alone quenches my thirst and hunger. Come back to me, and I'll accommodate both you and your daughter. Keeping your hearts safe in my hands will be a duty I'll swear to carry on till eternity." He broke into a weak sob "Come back to me, lest I die" He breathed heavily, holding his chest as he voiced the words "Oh, Edward!" Her rehearsed self-control slipped from its firm stand "I want nothing more but to stand in your arms forever" she sighed "But I'm a Prostitute!" Roxanne has undergone years of hardship at the orphanage. She struggles hard to find a job, and when she finally does, she has to struggle to keep herself from drowning in the grumpy CEO's lusty bed But withholding herself from falling into lusty temptation isn't the only struggle she has to face, for beneath the veil of self-control and toxic romance, lay a very dangerous killer who would not rest untill she sees to her death.

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-THREE

EDWARD'S POV

I picked up the call and the first thing I heard was "I'm giving you till tonight to come up with the one billion dollars. And it must be in cash, not transfer"

"What?" I asked in surprise, spurning around to face an astonished Roxanne. What was going on?

"Excuse me.."

"Let me speak with her" She offered, stretching forth her hands to grab the phone from mine.

"No," I said stiffly, still trying to fix what Dera had just said into some sensible box. She had fallen silent, obviously noticing my bark of confusion but was still on the line, waiting like a tiger.

"Please" She looked like she was about to cry, and my heart softened at once. She was the love of my life, I couldn't bear to see her in tears
