Mr. Billionaire - S01 E02 (Story Episode)

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 2

☆☆☆☆

Kate. My best friend Kate. The girl who was had been my best friend since the first grade. My bride’s maid. My sister from another mister. The girl who never judged me. The girl I could tell anything to.
“You…and Kate?” I gasped.
Simon looked at me, his eyes pitying.

“It just happened, Yvonne,” Simon said to me, frowning. “I love her.”
Those words did it. They made me feel so small and useless.
“Get out,” I said, my voice quiet with rage.

“What?” he looked at me, his eyes widened with surprise.
“GET OUT!” I shouted, throwing my bouquet at him with all the force I had in my body.

He dodged it and sprinted toward the door without a backward glance.

As soon as he was gone and the door closed behind him, my body slumped forward and my face and body hit the ground.
“Yvonne, Yvonne sweetie,” I heard a voice call out.

I couldn’t bring myself to move. I was shocked. I had been stood up a mere hour before my wedding. I closed my eyes and finally realized I was crying. No, not crying, sobbing.

A pair of big brown eyes shifted into my sight. I recognized my older brother Lucas. His eyes held silent fury as he looked at me.

“We heard,” was all he said.
I wanted to respond so badly, but the sobs wouldn’t stop.
I felt a warm, feminine hand on my back and my friend Kayleen spoke.

“Oh, sweetie, I’m so sorry,” she said, sounding on the verge of tears herself. “We’ll get you out of here, okay? We’ve already told the guests. They’re leaving.”

I looked toward the window and realized it was getting dark. How long had I been there crying before Lucas and Kayleen had shown up?

I’ve obviously been on the floor for hours crying over that a-----e, I thought to myself as Lucas lifted me into his arms and carried me out.

I concentrated on the swaying motion Lucas made as he walked and the soft clacking of Kayleen’s high heel shoes. I did my best to focus on anything but the burning hole Simon had left in my heart.

★★★★★★★★★★★★

~~5 WEEKS LATER~~
Life is meaningless. It had been five whole weeks and I still had yet to find a way to fill the gaping, burning, bleeding hole in my heart.

I had thrown out all of Simon’s things and kicked him out of my apartment, but somehow I still didn’t feel better.

It’s so funny how fast you can be broken. When Simon and I were together, then the world was right. I was strong and nothing could tear me down. I trusted him. I gave him all of me. And now here we were. The harsh reality was the simple fact that the love of my life had been fooling around with my best friend for a year.

I wondered how they could do what they did and still look me in the eye.

He even fell in love with her. He fell in love with my best friend.
I put my head in my hands and tears spilled from my eyes.
“Yvonne,” Kayleen called out in a sing song voice.

I slowly raised my head to look at her. At her side stood my two other friends, Martia and Levi. They all shuffled into the room.
“Awwwww, sweetie, I heard about what happened and I rushed from England as soon as Kayleen told me.” Levi looked at me pityingly as he spoke. “She’s such a w---e. She knew how much Simon meant to you. I don’t know why she would do that. And don’t get me started on Simon. I’m totally gonna kick his ass when I see him.”
