The Billionaire's Son

Chapter 1

Zaera's POV

I am currently being carried by the taxi I took that passed right after I left the Mansion. Since earlier, I just cried. I don't care what the driver thinks about my appearance now because sadness, pain and anger dominate me now.

I don't know where to go now. I can't go home because I am guilty of them. I chose to go with someone who I thought would love me completely and had no other motive for me.

But I made a wrong decision and now it's too late to regret it. I held my stomach, which was already slightly bulging. You are the only one left for me son, I have nothing but you.

I felt my cellphone vibrate. My hands were still shaking as I took it out of the pocket of my denim dress. When I saw the caller, the pain in my heart doubled.

Go with that shameless Heiress! Fortunately, the taxi window was open so I quickly threw the cellphone outside. I even heard it break.

I stopped myself from crying. I'll just think it's a bad dream.

Ma'am, where are you getting off?"

I calmed myself first and then wiped my cheek. I can only go to one person now In Saavedra Subdivision, M-Manong"

He nodded. The car was quiet again. I forced myself not to cry. I know that too much stress can harm me. I don't want my son to be harmed.

I hope Lovern is there. He is the only one I can rely on in this situation.

I reached the Subdivision where my friend was. I rang the doorbell and immediately the main door opened and Lovern came out.Zaera? What's going on---Oh my Gosh! What happened to you? Why are you crying?"

L-Love...." I didn't mention anything but his name and quickly hugged him tightly. He hugged me too. I cried again in his arms.

I am now sitting on his bed while carrying a glass of water. I also stopped crying What really happened, Zae? My eyes are watering again as I remember hearing their conversation at the Mansion. I told him everything, from the beginning to how I got here.

Oh, that's a st*pid! What right does he have to fool you, Zae?! How thick of a face is he to take the child from you and then they'll be together with that shameless Heiress?! He'll really see it from me! That's bullshit!"

He stood up and was about to attack Zero. I immediately held him by the arm.

Love, don't"

That's not possible, Zae! I can really kill that animal!Love, all I need now is help" I begged.

He sighed and sat next to me. It tapped my shoulder.

What help do you need?"

I bent down and took a deep breath. I stopped my tears from falling.

Help me get away from here. Help me get my son away from Zero"

Third Person's POV

Damn it!" You can tell the anger and annoyance in his voice.

He was also anxiously pacing back and forth inside his room and constantly looking at his cell phone. As soon as he knew that the Seorita had run away, he was uneasy.

He called her number several times but could not reach her. He did not know what reason and why he ran away Zero, we have a problem" A young man came rushing. You can see the fear on his face. He quickly handed the tablet to Zero. Anger and annoyance appeared on Zero's face at the same time he threw the Tablet on the floor causing various parts of it to be thrown in the corner of the room. He himself saw on CCTV that he was listening to his cousin's conversation.

Find her don't came back here untril you find her!" His voice echoed throughout the Mansion.

The man hurriedly left, nervous because of Zero's anger. Zero was left feeling uneasy and how cheap he said it. He washed his hand all over his face.

He has to find his mother and daughter because her situation is very dangerous and besides that, he has to get his son.

Everything is fine, Zae. I already contacted Hather about your arrival. He will pick you up at the airport himself Thank you, Love" I promised with a smile and hugged him.

Of course for you. Be careful there. Don't worry, Zero will never know where you are" She assured me. I nodded.

He helped me take care of everything I needed. His older brother also helped me find a place to live in Spain. I also met Hather when he visited the Philippines once, but that was only once. Aren't you going to tell your parents first? I stopped for a moment then shook my head. I put the luggage in the compartment of his car. I want to but I can't. I don't want them to know what happened to me because the situation will surely get worse. And there is a possibility that Zero will find me.

They don't need to know anymore, Love. I'm sure the situation will only get worse if it happens. I'd better just leave without informing them"

Okay. If that's your decision" It agreed with my decision.

I got into his car and he drove himself to the airport. I held my stomach as I looked out the car window. I held my breath trying to stabilize my mood.

I don't know what will happen to me there because it was not in my plan. But I will do everything to save my child even if I am alone. I would rather lose him from his father than lose him from me and end up in the care of his wife.

My tears flowed one after the other. Even though I hate him, I still can't get rid of my love for him in my heart. That's the way it is when you love, you can't immediately forget no matter how big his sin is to you and no matter how much pain he caused in your heart.

Zae, you're crying again. Don't cry that man" Lovern commented next to me so I quickly wiped my cheek.

I know you love him and that won't go away anytime soon, but please don't cry because of him. He doesn't deserve your tears. Be strong and strong for your son" He looked at me for a moment and held me I'm also on hand to make me feel better.

I nodded and smiled. "Thank you"

He smiled then drove again. I fixed myself. This is the last time I will cry for him and I will leave all my tears in this country. I promise that.

Five Years Later..

It's been five years since Zaera left. A lot has changed especially in the lives of the people he left behind.

More remarkable was the great change that took place in Zero's life. His relationship with Heiress became official but his brother could not accept it especially his Grandfather Don Fugere Ever since then, Zaera has been the one he wants for his grandson.

Zero is happy but not that happy, he notices something missing in his life.

Maybe it's because he still wants to get his son from Zaera.

Grandpa, Heiress is here. She wanted to greet you personally" Zero spoke as Heiress opened his eyes to him.

Its sophistication and elegance can be seen in her red night gown. Heiress immediately approached Don Fugere to kiss him but the old man quickly avoided it. He just tried to smile.

Happy Birthday, Grandpa

He only gave him a nod in return. Aether. Take me to my room, I want to rest" This order to Zero's younger brother Aether looked at Zero and Heiress with obvious embarrassment on his face.

Aether, are you listening to me? Take me to my room. I've lost my appetite" Don Fugere said annoyed.

Yes, Grandpa"

Aether quickly obeyed. He was about to push his grandfather's wheelchair when Zero stopped him.

I'll take care of Grandpa"

Aether wouldn't have said it but her parents had prompted her. He didn't do anything if he didn't follow what his older brother said.

Heiress was left with a few guests who were only their relatives and friends as well as Zero's parents and siblings.

I'm about to go inside" Aether didn't want to say goodbye.

Aether, aren't you going to accompany Heiress first?" Mom asked this. He turned his gaze to Heiress and raised his eyebrows I have my priorities, Mama. Excuse me, I have to go" He said goodbye and smiled plastically before leaving them there.

Heiress clenched her fist while looking at Zero's brother. He was disgusted by what he was showing, especially what Don Fugere was showing him.

Meanwhile....

Why did you bring me here? Where is Aether?" Don Fugere asked Zero.

Why can't you accept Heiress until now, Grandpa?" This is a straightforward question.

Don Fugere didn't answer and just opened the door of his room.

Heiress is a good woman, Grandpa. Why don't you give her a chance? Why don't you still like her for me?" Zero asked once again.

Because she is not Zaera" It was a simple answer Zero frustratedly combed his hair using his fingers. It does not understand why it is still looking for Zaera.

Zaera again? Zaera already left, Grandpa. She even took my daughter away your granddaughter but why are you still looking for her? Can't you see she's not a good wom---"

It's because of your fault, Zerron! You thought I wouldn't know what you did to him and your plan to keep my grandson away from him? What kind of father are you? It's good that he stayed away from you because you don't deserve a man for her. She deserves someone else. She deserves someone who could love and take responsibility of her"

Zero was stunned to hear this from his Grandfather. The only thing he could do was clench his palms. He was hurt by what he heard. Something got stuck in his throat because of the words his Grandfather said.

In this matter only his cousin and grandfather know what really happened five years ago.

But it was five years ago already, Grandpa. Just accept Heiress"

No matter how many times you force me to accept your woman, that will never happen Grandpa! She's not just my girl, she's my girlfriend and she'll be my wife and the mother of my future children!" He couldn't stop raising his voice to his Grandfather.

His grandfather just laughed at what he said. "Say that if you stand up for being Zaera's boyfriend and husband and being a father to her child"

He pressed the controller of his wheelchair then he headed into his room. His fist was clenched. He couldn't answer because he knew his Grandfather had a point.

And I'm telling you, Zerron. You won't have a single bit of what I have until I see Zaera and my granddaughter. Remember that When his Grandfather said the last thing, his annoyance and anger intensified. When Don Fugere finally entered his room, he punched the wall to release all his anger.

The speed of time. A lot has changed in my life in five years. I can say that I am happy especially when I am with my son. I heard a knock from the door so I looked there I immediately smiled when I saw his face peering through the opening of the door.

Hi, Mama" He raised his little hand and waved at me. His eyes narrowed even more because of his smile.

I left from sitting and squatted then raised my two hands. I signaled him to come with me Come here, kid"

The door opened and he went inside and ran towards me. I was still worried that he might break his own leg so I just hugged him.

I miss you, Mom...I miss you too, kid. Who's with you?" I asked him tenderly.

I'm with Dada" It pointed in the direction of the door.

I looked over there and saw Hather leaning against the door with his hands in his pants. A smile was drawn on his lips. I smiled at him.

Zianrill used to call Hather Dada although he already knew that he is not his real dad. It is close to Hather because he is always with it when I am at work Zianrill is already four years old, he's a smart kid. I don't want to admit it, but it got his intelligence from Zero, especially when it comes to Math, which I'm really weak at. I also couldn't help sulking sometimes because he got the beauty of Zero's physical features from his nose, eyebrows, lips and face shape while the only thing he got from me was the color of his eyes.

You two are so cute" I turned to Hather when she criticized us.

It came to us. "Did you hear it, kid? Your Dada said that we're cute together"

Well, he's not good at lying Mama"

I just laughed at this answer. Hather pinched her nose. I put him down and he ran to the sofa.

How's work?"

It's a bit stressful but Zian is here so I'm okay" I answered and smiled. He didn't say a word for a long time so I looked at him. Do you have any plans on telling him?"

I was stunned by what he said. Even if I didn't ask, I knew what he was talking about I don't plan to tell him and I won't tell him who his father is" I answered firmly. I heard his sigh.

Well, if that is your decision. But what if he looks for his father, what will you answer?"

I didn't answer right away. What if he looks for Zero with me?

I'll think about that when that day comes"

He was the one who didn't speak. My attention turned to my cellphone when it rang. When I saw that it was Lovern, I immediately answered.

Oh, Love. Why?"

Z-Zae, your mom.... Your mom rushed to the hospital.Heart attack

I dropped my cell phone and my tears started to fall. The only thing I could hear was the strong beating of my heart.
