Billionaire’s Great Obsession

Chapter 10: She’s Just A Possession



The gentleness he presented earlier had vanished completely. Her heart sank. She closed her eyes and awaited his ‘attack’ as he took off her bathrobe.

However, Scott stroked her left eye gently and quickly got up. Brianna felt relieved for a second, then she grew worried. Have I displeased him? What did I do? If he’s not even interested in my body anymore, he will probably stop paying me!

Brianna bounced off the bed instantly without even taking time to put on the bathrobe, and just as Scott was about to open the door to leave, Brianna hugged him from behind. “Honey, I know I’m not the best at making out or flirting, but I will learn. I will learn to please you.” Brianna said worriedly.

Scott felt the warmth of her naked body, but he appeared distant and cold. “Take your hands off me.” He said plainly.

“Please stay.” Brianna hugged him tighter.

Sudden anger possessed Scott, and he pinched her hand with his slim yet strong fingers. Brianna exclaimed in pain and let go of Scott.

“Don’t make me despise you,” Scott said coldly, walked out of the room, and slammed the door shut.

Naked, confused, and upset, Brianna went back to bed. Before long, she heard the sound of the car engine. Scott had just left. It was a quarter past ten.

He must have gone out to seek pleasure from other women. Brianna thought remorsefully. What am I going to do? How can I please him? He’s so cold and unpredictable.

About twenty minutes later, Scott arrived at Above the Cloud, the grandest private club in Las Vegas, one of Anderson’s many properties. It’s guarded by security guards around the club, and only people with power and prestige were welcomed here.

As soon as Scott’s car pulled over, the doorman came over instantly and opened the door for him. All the security guards at the gate bowed and greeted Scott courteously.

Jacob Morgan’s face lit up as soon as he spotted Scott coming in. He stood up to welcome him, whistling cheerfully, and gave him a hug. “Nice to see you, Scott! What brought you here tonight? A delightful surprise.”

Seated by the table was another charming man named Sean Smith, the only son of the Smiths. It was said that the Smiths were the second most powerful family in Las Vegas, just after the Andersons.

Sean poured a drink for Scott and looked at him with a curious smile. “Jacob said that you got married today.”

Scott knitted his brows and threw an agitated look at Jacob. “You have a big mouth, don’t you?”

“Ha-ha. Well, did you plan to keep it a secret?” Jacob retorted cheekily.

“Nothing is a secret once you two know.”

“I promise I won’t tell anyone else.” Scott responded quickly, “But, Scott, are you serious? I mean with that girl?”

“Of course not.”

“But you married her!”

“My grandpa has been too pushy. I need to shut him up for a bit. And he will be furious if he hears about those stupid and ridiculous rumors about me being a homosexual.”

“What’s wrong with being a homosexual? Gays are great. It’s real love! Scott, you didn’t have to marry a woman. You don’t love her anyway.”

Scott slapped Jacob at the back of his head and said, “Should I have married a man and introduced him to my grandpa then? It would drive him mad!”

Jacob was asking tentatively, wondering what Scott thought about homosexuality. Discouraged, he blushed slightly and to disguise his awkwardness. He raised his glass and said, “Cheers. Happy married life.”

Out of curiosity, Sean said, “Scott, I haven’t seen you date any woman in the past years. I wonder who it is that has charmed you so much that you even married her.”

“Charm me? Nah. She’s just a possession, a toy.” Scott said with disdain.

“Just a possession, a toy?” Sean repeated.

“Well, why her then? I mean, Sophia Moore is very beautiful. She and Maggie Taylor are the two most stunning girls in Las Vegas, but Sophia Moore’s look and family background do not impress you at all. What about this girl that you married?” Jacob added

“The most beautiful one doesn’t necessarily mean the best or the right one,” Scott said, and somehow the image of the lovely face of Brianna popped up in his mind. She might look quiet and amiable, but she’s actually a wild little cat with sharp claws! Or a spiky hedgehog!

She’s a fun one, but she hasn’t learned how to be a pet yet! She needs to be tamed, completely tamed.

One day, I’m going to pluck all her spikes and cut her claws, take away her pride, and transform her.

Sean looked at Jacob and asked, “Who is this girl that has tamed our Mr. Scott Anderson who rarely shows interest in any women?”

Jacob looked upset and disappointed. “Who says Scott doesn’t like women? It’s just he only cares about one, the one that disappeared three years ago. And this girl that he’s married to looks just the same as her! Even her voice and figure are very similar.”

Jacob regretted that he pointed out how similar Brianna looked to the girl the other night. He didn’t even see her! Why did I tell him?! Or he would still be single, and I would still have my chance.

“That’s odd! Could they be twin sisters?” Sean knitted his brows and asked.

He had heard that Scott once had a fight with his family over a certain girl, and he even left home and didn’t contact anyone for three years. His grandfather cut all his sources of income and threatened him, but he would rather live in debt and in a cheap tiny room than give up the girl.

“No. She is an orphan and has only two siblings, her two other brothers.” Scott explained casually.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

“Hmm, that’s even stranger then. I’m really curious now. I would love to see this girl.” Sean said, “I didn’t get to see the real one, but I shall at least meet this replacement.”

Scott threw an icy glance at Sean and said, “To meet her? Who do you think you are?”
