Book:The Billionaire Pretend Girlfriend Published:2024-6-2

Amelia was wondering why liam was being cold towards her, Elliot stood in front of her interrupting her thoughts.
“Yes?”She questions why he was standing in front of her, she guessed he wanted to tell her something.
“Let’s go”Elliot orders turning to leave, Amelia holding his hand stopping him from leaving.
“Where are we going?”Amelia asked, a bit confused and curious. Elliot turns to her direction and smirks.
“We are going to get married”He jokingly utters, Amelia rolled her eyes not in the mood for his childish joke as she was already worried about Liam.
“I’m not in the mood for your jokes, tell me where we are going or I’m not following you anywhere”Amelia threatens feeling irritated by everything.
“I see someone is not in a good mood”Elliot grins.
“Elliot Camon, where are we going?”Amelia whines, feeling weak.
“Fine we are going to Liam’s wine company”Elliot squeaks as he is excited to go there.
Amelia stared at him stunned a little on how happy he was. She smiles brightly but the thought of why she was going to his wine company struck her mind.
“Why are we going there?”Amelia asked, not understanding the sudden need for her to go there.
“Well we are going to help out in delivering”Elliot replied.
“Oh okay”Amelia looked behind her expecting to see Liam but saw only staff walking, Elliot noticed her looking back.
“Liam isn’t coming with”He uttered, Amelia sighs before following Elliot.
Claudia saw the both of them leaving the company making her a bit curious on where they were going too.
“I think it’s time I go see that dude”Claudia looked around hoping nobody was looking at her before leaving the company.
Amelia and Elliot arrived at Liam’s wine company. Their nostrils were immediately filled with different flavors.
“Ugh the scent is so strong”Amelia complains rubbing her nose in disgust.
“This scent is my happiness”Elliot grins, Amelia rolled her eyes playfully, hitting his arm a little.
Elliot chuckles before going to the wine bar, he sat down in one of the chairs and gestured to Amelia to come to sit.
She glanced at the whole place in one view before running to meet Elliot. She took her seat and they both poured a glass of wine to taste.
“So what you are saying is that we are here to taste new products?” Amelia asked, staring at the glass filled with wine in front of her.
“Well yes baby girl , that’s exactly what we are here for”Elliot smirks before chunking down his wine immediately.
“Well what I’m I doing here?” Amelia questions confused as she wasn’t great at drinking.
“Well Liam asked me to take you here”Elliot lied before pouring himself another glass.
“Why will he do that?” Amelia scoffs in disbelief.
“Well I lied okay, he asked me to go but I didn’t want to drink alone and needed company, and you were looking like you needed a drink”Elliot explains coming clean.
“What the hell Elliot, I knew Liam would never ask me to come cause he knows I don’t like drinking!”Amelia barks at him while hitting him.
Elliot laughs as Amelia hits him, The thought of Liam telling him that Amelia thought he was someone else hits him as she just called Liam by his real name.
“Wait, you know he is Liam?” Elliot asked, staring at her.
“Of course who else is he?” Amelia unconsciously blurted out.
“I thought you lost your memory”Elliot’s words made Amelia’s eyes widen. She looked at him and saw his eyes were already on her.
“Uhm…hmm”Amelia stutters not knowing what to say, She immediately gulps her drink down avoiding Elliot’s stares.
“You do know you can’t ignore my questions by drinking”Elliot scoffs, chuckling slightly.
Amelia POV
Oh no, how can I be so stupid that I didn’t even realized I just admit to knowing Liam. I don’t think there is any way out of this I just need to come clean.
“Yes I know he is…Liam”Amelia admits even though she finds it hard to say Liam.
“Okay”Elliot nods, gulping down his drink.
Amelia stared at him astonished, he didn’t even gasp or ask why she had been keeping it a secret for this while, he was so unbothered.
“You’re not gonna ask me why or yell at me for keeping it a secret?” Amelia questions confused about what was the reason behind his silence.
“Nah I don’t really wanna know the reason or why you did it, I just wanna focus on my drinks”Elliot admits waving his glass up.
“Wow Elliot, you are something else”Amelia looked amused and relieved that he didn’t ask more questions.
“I know, but if I’m to say something I think it best you tell Liam that you remembered your memory”Elliot advised her.
“But he will hate me”Amelia mutters with her gaze down.
“Nah Liam isn’t the one to hate” Elliot tells her gagging at the strong taste of the wine.
“This is the one”Elliot tells the bartender pointing at the bottle of wine he just had.
“Okay sir”The young gentleman nodded.
“Okay I think our work is done here”Elliot announced, grabbing two bottles of the wine.
“Are we done?” Amelia asked, looking confused.
“Yea, wanna go back to the company cause I’m going somewhere”Elliot tells her.
“Well…I think…” Amelia’s words were cut off by her phone ringing. She picked it up and saw it was Laila calling.
“Yes Laila,”Amelia answers.
“She always wants to know where everyone is”Elliot scoffs, Amelia gave him the signal to be quiet.
“Oh yes I’m free”Amelia tells Laila on the call.
She spoke to Laila for a few minutes as Elliot watches her silently. After she hangs up the call she turns to see Elliot frowning.
“What?” Amelia questions his squeezed face.
“You guys were talking for hours,”Elliot complains.
“Well I didn’t notice”Amelia giggles, Elliot rolled his eyes.
“Okay so what did she say?”He asked, a bit curious about what they were talking about.
“Oh she just asked if I wasn’t busy , so I could follow them to shop”Amelia explains.
Elliot scoffs before leaving Amelia there standing. She ran to meet him as they both left the building together.
Amelia, Miss Cynthia, Nina and Laila were at the shopping mall. Amelia was in the dress room trying out a gown, after some minutes she came out revealing her red sparkling gown as they all cheered on how beautiful she was looking.
“Oh my gosh, you look so beautiful”Laila compliments as they all nodded in approval.
“Thanks”Amelia thanked her smiling.
“Laila is right, you look stunning,”Miss Cynthia added, making Amelia blush a little.
“I think you should wear this dress for the night party”Nina suggested, Miss Cynthia and Laila nodded approvingly of Nina’s suggestion.
“Oh okay”Amelia agreed, giggling a little as they all laughed together.
After some hours they were done shopping at 2:30 pm already.
“We still have time before the party, what do you guys wanna do?”Laila asked.
“Are you sure we will be able to get ready on time for the party?” Amelia nervously asked, She wanted to leave and go home to meet Liam so she can tell him about her getting her memory back.
She hopes he will forgive her and doesn’t throw her out of his life , cause she doesn’t know how she will feel if she loses him.
“Yes Amelia, I mean there is time for us to get ice cream!”Laila yells the ice cream part out loud , They all chanted in excitement.
“I want the strawberry flavour”Nina requested as they went to the ice cream parlour.
“You can have any flavour you want okay”Miss Cynthia assures Nina earning a smile from her.
Amelia watches as Laila orders ice cream silently. She wished she was with Liam now as she missed him so much but he was mad at for some reason unknown to her.
“Here comes the ice cream”Laila announced, earning a cheer for them.
“Who ordered mint chocolate?”Laila asked, staring at the bowl filled with mint chocolate ice cream in disgust.
“I did,”Miss Cynthia grins, collecting the bowl from her.
“Your choice of flavour is disgusting”Laila made a puke face making them laugh including Miss Cynthia who was having so much fun in their company.
“I’m guessing this strawberry one is for Nina, Aka strawberry princess”Laila uttered, Nina made a heart with her hand biting the heart down cutely before collecting the ice cream.
“Well chocolate for Amelia, and the vanilla and chocolate for me”Laila handed Amelia her bowl before taking hers.
“So girls let’s dig in,”Miss Cynthia stated as they dug into their bowls of ice cream.
Claudia looked behind her before entering the incomplete building. They were men there smoking and drinking as they all looked at her with lust, She glared at them before going up.
“Hello”Claudia greets the men clearing the road revealing their boss who had a cigarette in his mouth.
“Yes how can I help you beautiful lady”The man compliments Claudia. She stared at him with disgust and wanted to slap the shit out of him but had to hold herself.
She walks up to the man, Everyone stared at Claudia wondering what she was doing here.
“I came here to offer you a business that you can’t refuse”Claudia stated, The boss glanced at his men before looking at Claudia as he burst out into laughter making Claudia frown.
“Okay what is the business?”He asked between laughter, noticing she wasn’t smiling.
“I want you to help me kill someone,”Claudia tells him, handing him a picture of Amelia.
He took it from her hand, His eyes scans the picture before giving it back to her.
“Why would I want to kill such a beautiful lady like that?”The man chuckles, releasing his smoke.
“Well I will pay you,”Claudia replied.
“Hmm you will pay me”The man repeated before laughing as his men joined him in laughing.
Claudia POV
Gosh who recommended this psychopath to me, only God knows how badly I want to slap the hell out of him. But I have to be calm in order for me to get rid of that Amelia.
“I will pay you any amount you ask for ”Claudia stated, making his laughter stop.
“How much can you pay me, cause it won’t be an easy job”The man admits staring at her.
“Well how about 100$”Claudia offers, The man glared at Claudia before puffing out another smoke.
“You are not ready to do business Miss”He tells her.
“I am, okay I will pay you 1000$”She bribes him, increasing the money , she is ready to pay any amount as long as he will kill Amelia.
“Okay, so when do you want me to kill her?”The man asked.
“Tonight at a party,”Claudia answers, throwing him a bundle.
“That is half payment, I will pay you the rest when you get the job done”Claudia added.
“Consider the job done”The man chuckles as he looks at the money with so much happiness.
“What an asshoe”Claudia remarks before leaving.
Claudia POV
I can’t just wait to hear the news about Amelia’s death. Liam is going to be devastated but I will calm him down and he will move on from that bitch in no time.
Liam POV
I feel bad for yelling at her like that, I don’t know why I am mad at her. I don’t have a good feeling about him inviting us to his party. Something is definitely not right.
Amelia POV
I hope Liam isn’t mad at me again, I just don’t want him to think I hide my regain of memory from him due to selfish reason. I’m happy Elliot is gonna allow me to tell him by myself, to be honest I expected Elliot to run and tell Liam the truth immediately he found out, but I guess he isn’t that type of guys.
Andrew POV
I can’t wait for tonight’s party , it’s either you choose to accept me back or be exposed to Liam. I will make the situation in a way you won’t be able to escape it.
Elliot POV
I hope they are gonna be serving a lot of wine at that party, cause I don’t wanna attend but gotta go because of the drinks and nothing more.
