The Billionaire's Bite
Chapter 58

DRAKE'S

POV

"I wish Anna was always safe, I know how dangerous her life is now because of me," I said to myself while my eyes were closed. I slowly opened my eyes and saw that Anna was still wishing, I had already put the red cloth on the tree branch, and later on, Anna also ended up hooking up.

"Let's go?" I asked and held out my hand. She stared at my hand for a few seconds and then took it. We walked together towards my car, the softness of her hand. I immediately remembered mom's hand when she was still alive.

I opened the door for her before I got in the car, I immediately started the car and a few minutes later we reached the Bentrix Corporation. Anna said goodbye and I went straight to my office.

A few more hours passed and I was unaware of the sunset. I closed my laptop and went out to my office, only a few employees were there, my eyes searched for Anna but I couldn't see her bulk. "Anna, are you home yet?" I asked Jake.

"Yes sir, I saw her earlier with Elsa," he replied. I just nodded and continued walking.

I immediately went to the parking lot to go home, I was so tired today so I wanted to go home to rest.

I also drove for a few hours and I got home, the maids met me immediately but I didn't pay attention to them. I immediately went to my room, even though I hadn't been able to enter completely, Baby Vends immediately greeted me. "Hello Baby Vends, how's your day?" I ask. It barked vigorously as it waved its tail.

I immediately went to the bathroom to take a shower.

The white towel was wrapped around my waist when my phone suddenly rang.

Xandrus is calling...

What does this man need from me?

I answered it immediately. I put my phone away from my ear because of the loudness of the sound that startled me.

'Hello? Where are you? Why the noise is so loud," I asked.

"I'm here at the newly opened bar, come join me for a drink," he replied. Hayst this man did nothing but drink after work. "There are many beautiful women here," he added.

"I'm tired now so I'm not in the mood to drink."

"Lance is here now, come on." The promise of Xandrus. "Drake is here," Lance replied. They both sound drunk based on their voices.

"Go home, you're drunk."

'We're fine, you know we should celebrate because sooner or later Lance will have a girlfriend," Xandrus promised.

"Wow, I didn't know Lance was dating someone," I said in shock.

"Yeah, I didn't even know that our friend was secretly in loved with your secretary."

It was as if cold water poured on me when Xandrus released that word.

Anna... Anna will be his girlfriend?

Without any hesitation, I was gradually caught in my chest. I suddenly felt intense depression.

"Hey Drake, are you still there?" Xandrus asked.

"Uhm... Yeah. I'll end this call first, I'll take a shower."

"Are you coming?"

"Maybe not, I'm tired today."

"All right, goodnight dude." That's it and I turned off the call.

Not on my own I walked in, out of the bathroom, and turned on the shower.

I just let the water flow all over my body, I was so depressed at this time, I don't know why it just had such an effect when Xandrus told me earlier. How do I feel for Anna?

My desire is to go to Anna today and hug her.

'Will Anna be Xandrus' girlfriend?'

That question spontaneously registered in my brain.

What about me now?

The water just kept flowing all over my body.

My eyes closed as the image of Anna suddenly registered as she smiled.

Why am I acting like this?

A few more minutes passed and I also ended up taking a shower. I immediately got dressed and sat on the sofa while drying my wet hair with a white towel.

I saw the small picture frame on the table next to my bed. Dad and mom took this picture of us when he was still alive.

I stared at it for a moment and smiled.

"Mom, I hope you're here now so I can tell someone about my problems. Dad is being too busy with his work..." I blow alone.

During the many times I had sex with different women, only now did I feel jealous... And that was because of Anna.

I am confused by how I feel, I am angry and sad because of what Xandrus said earlier. It's like I want to keep Anna away from Lance.

That's crazy, what am I thinking. Am I going crazy?

Lance is my best friend, it's like we're brothers, but why do I seem ready to be selfish just for Anna.

Do I love her?

That is not possible because she might just perish because of me.

Our situation is very chaotic and I also don't want to add to what he is thinking.

I grabbed my sinuses and shook. I walked over to my bed and dropped the body on the bed. A few more minutes later I gradually felt drowsy. "Drake..."

"Drake... Wake up..." A voice rang out in the bright part of the forest. I blinked and tried to look at the woman calling my name.

A few more seconds and my eyes gradually widened as I saw an image. It was as if I was stuck in my position and I could feel the fluid slowly forming in my eyes.

"Mom..." I said weakly and the tears finally disappeared from my eyes. I immediately ran to her and hugged her tightly.

I hugged her for a few seconds until she spoke.

"I know you're going through a lot right now Drake, I'm just always here to watch over you...you just have to remember that you will always choose where you will be happy so that you will have no regrets in the end..." After mom released those words the surroundings became brighter.

I slowly opened my eyes and realized that it was just a dream. I immediately got up and wiped the tears from my cheeks.

I looked outside and saw that the sun was shining brightly as if there was a piece of good news.

I smiled and stared at the blue sky.

"Thank you so much mom, I already know what I have to do."
