Taming A Billionaire

Chapter 710 - Seven Hundred And Ten: All Of Them To Pay

The third point of view:

Unfortunately, when one plans, life often had its own plans. The day Deborah finally decided to summon the courage and take the bull by the horn, Niklaus didn\'t come into the office.

She stood awkwardly by the floor leading to his office and pretended to be busy with her cleaning equipment

each time people passed her by.

She was not the only cleaner in the company, no, there were lots of them and each of them was assigned to certain floors and space since the headquarter was a high-rise building. She merely switched places with a co-worker, pleading to help her out with the job since she was already done with hers.

But then Deborah waited and waited at the usual time Niklaus came to the office and was almost at risk of being discovered when she found his assistant instead.

Since she found it difficult to walk up to Niklaus, Deborah decided to make use of the man instead knowing he was the one who handled all of Niklaus\' needs.

It had taken a lot of pleading to convince Niklaus\' assistant that her letter was important and after ensuring it wasn\'t harmful, the man agreed to give it to him. In her presence, he placed the letter on top of the pile of documents he carried and her heart raced knowing that it was only a matter of time till her father knew of her existence.

But then, for Deborah to turn around, she bumped into Isabella who had probably seen her interaction with the assistant.

"What is going on here?" Isabella asked with that authoritative voice of hers.

"It\'s nothing," the assistant was the one who answered politely, "You must be here to see your father?"

"Yes, I have something to discuss with him and I couldn\'t get a hold of him last night because he didn\'t come home," Isabella said, scrutinizing her.

Deborah knew Isabella must look down on her because of her appearance. She couldn\'t help but wonder if they would get along if she comes to know that the both of them were siblings.

She doubted so anyway, she heard that Isabella was aloof, distant, and mean to people. A total bitch. Why would she like her?

Niklaus\' assistant then turned to her, "You should leave now. I\'ll be sure to relay your message," He hinted at the letter.

Deborah smiled and took her leave, however, she caught Isabella staring at her letter that was kept on top of the others and she feared that Isabella would read it.

"Aren\'t you leaving?" Isabella asked her with a mean look.

"S-sure," Deborah stuttered with a nervous smile and left. If she had been scared earlier, she was anxious now because she couldn\'t get rid of the thought of Isabella reading her letter from her head.

All through the day Decorah couldn\'t relax and kept her ears to the ground hoping for news of Niklaus\'s return to the office and at last, he did. So she waited nervously for his calling since she had put her contact at the end of the letter.

However, to her disappointment, a day went by without a word from Niklaus. Deborah didn\'t think much about it surmising that Niklaus must have been too busy that he didn\'t go through it.

However, the second day passed and Niklaus still didn\'t contact her, and the third and the fourth went past as well until the fifth day came, she was fired from her cleaning job.

Her being fired from her job was the wake-up call Deborah needed and she knew at once that Isabella was responsible for everything that happened to her.

Isabella must have read her letter and discovered that she was her half-sister and sought to make sure that her father never found out about it so she fired her from her job.

Deborah was so filled with hatred for Isabella that she decided she would have her vengeance. What was so special about Isabella anyway? Who gave her the right to decide her fate? If only she knew whatever happened to her was not related to Isabella at all.

Yes, it was true that Isabella had come into Niklaus\' office yet she didn\'t give much thought to the letter surmising it was one of the homeless asking for assistant since it wasn\'t the first time such a thing happened.

Bored and tired of waiting, Isabella left the office for home and didn\'t get to see the breeze that threw the lightweight letter off the table and to the ground, and then it flew under his desk. Not even Niklaus saw it.

Unfortunately, the cleaner in charge of Niklaus\' office came the next day and got rid of the letter unknowingly.

On the part of her getting fired, one of her jealous co-workers had seen Deborah and the assistant together when she gave him the letter and reported her as giving a bribe for a promotion. Sadly, the head cleaner was so angered by the report that she fired her without giving her a reason for her abrupt dismissal.

Hence, Deborah spent half of her life thinking that Isabella was responsible for her misery. After getting fired from her job, there was no other opportunity to meet Niklaus and she couldn\'t get other jobs like that.

Life became harder once again and this time, Deborah leaned into the dark side of the society. And it was through her illicit acquaintances that she was able to get connected to that old man.

Jacob Miller was a rich old man in need of a companion having lost his wife in the years gone by with all of his children married off. All these years, Deborah never for once forget her need for revenge. Although she had resented Isabella at first, she added Niklaus to the list in no time. After all, if Niklaus hadn\'t knocked up and left her mother, she wouldn\'t have been born into this world, not to talk of living this kind of life.

All of them must pay!
