My Billionaire Husband

Sue was born as an artist and musician. She had a great talent for art, but ever since her husband passed away, she lost her interest in everything. However, she could see the expectation and eagerness in her daughter's eyes and couldn't bear to say no to her.

Patiently, Sue talked with Brianna and suggested a few things that could be changed. Brianna took notes, intending to work on it once she got home.

Feeling tired and sleepy, Sue yarned. The nurse came in and said with a smile. "How are you, Brianna? I was just about to take Sue out for a little walk before bed. Lying in bed for too long isn't good for the body nor the mind, you see."

"Right. Shall I take her?" Brianna asked.

"Sure." The nurse said good night to them and left.

Brianna took Sue's arm, and slowly they took the lift and went up to the rooftop garden. The moon shone gently tonight.

"Mum, you know, I've always loved our little garden. You are the best gardener I know." Brianna said cheerfully.

Sue nodded with a smile, yet there was sadness in her eyes.

Brianna noticed, and quickly, she gave her mother a hug and said gently, "Mum, when I make enough money, I will get our house back, and we can have our most beautiful garden again!"

Sue shook her head. "It must be different now. The new owner must have changed the place. And your father's not here anymore. Even if we have our house back, it won't be the same anymore."

"Then, we can buy a new house somewhere else and make it a new home. How about that?"

Sue smiled and patted Brianna's head affectionately, "It costs a lot, and I don't want you to give yourself too much pressure. Anyway, how have you been lately?"

"I've been very good. I'm doing what I love and saving money."

"You and Liam..." Sue hesitated, looking at Brianna closely, then went on, "Are you two alright?"

"Yeah. We are." Brianna muttered.

Sue sighed and said, "He came to see me the other day and told me that you two have separated. He apologized and said that he would help if there's anything we need."

"Mum, don't trust him. He and his family are liars, stingy liars." Brianna said sharply.

Sue patted Brianna's hand and said with relief, "I'm glad you understand now. I've been wanting to tell you, but you seemed to love him very much, perhaps too much. Since your father passed away, I've noticed how he and his family changed, or to be exact, how they have finally shown their true selves. Anyway, it's good that you are not with him anymore. I was worried that if you married him, the rest of your life would not be easy."

Brianna was concerned that it would upset her mother if she knew they had broken up. To her surprise, Sue actually felt relieved.

"Mum, don't you worry. I'm sure I will meet someone as perfect as dad and live a happy married life, just like you and dad."

"Right. I'm sure you will. You deserve the best, man. Now, I shall go and get some sleep."

As they were walking back to the room, Liam showed up. "Sue, Brianna, here you are. I didn't see you in your room."

"We went for a walk," Sue said politely.

"What brought you here at this time?" Brianna asked coldly.

"Zara is sick and is also staying in this hospital. I thought I would drop by to see Sue." Liam said a bit guiltily, "Brianna, are you still mad at me?"

Brianna tried to stay as calm as she could. She replied indifferently. "I've never been mad at you. I was mad at myself for being so stupid. But anyway, thanks for the breakup so that I could be free from your torture."

Liam looked embarrassed and said in a hurry, "Ah. Err... good night, Sue. Good night, Brianna." He turned around and left.

"Don't feel bad for someone like him. It's not worth it." Sue comforted gently.

"I don't, mum. Not anymore." Brianna smiled at her mother reassuringly.

She was telling the truth. In the past sixteen years, Brianna had believed that Liam was the only one, that he loved her, protected her, and looked after her. He never said a harsh word to her, and whenever something went wrong, he would apologize first. She thought she would be happy with him, that they would get married and live life together as her parents did.

However, during the days she had spent with Scott lately, she started to see how different the two men were. Though Scott could be dictatorial and aggressive, he never lied, unlike Liam, who would appear gentle and loving but was, in fact, the biggest liar. He always had his way of persuading Brianna into going to the meetings that she hated.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click <a href="#%E2%80%99t-be-the-same-anymore_52766765960184239">#%E2%80%99t-be-the-same-anymore_52766765960184239</a> for visiting.

Liam had never forced her to have s.e.x with her, but cleverly he had tricked her into being taken advantage of by the clients. Scott, however, had bought her as a possession and would do with her whenever he liked, but if anyone else insulted her, he would be the most protective of her.

It was a rather contradictory feeling that she felt used by Scott, yet at the same time, she felt safe with him.

Brianna intended to stay the night with her mother, but just as she was to go to sleep, Scott rang and demanded that she had to be back within half an hour to cook supper for him.

Reluctantly, Brianna said good night to her mother and rushed back to Home for Sol. She made him some Chinese dumplings and then spent another hour or so finishing the editing of the design.

The next morning, all the shareholders gathered at the central conference room at the Anderson Corporation. After a heated discussion, they came to an agreement they would keep both themes for now and would have a further discussion depending on the public reaction on the day of the press conference where they would display both designs publically.
