The Heart of Mr.Billionaire

Chapter 1

SIAN's POV

****************************

The rays of the sun came through the window touched my bare fingers. My eyes searched it path towards my finger as I was delighted by the shine when it almost hit against my face. The moment I touched it smoothly, A heart piercing as well as yet so mousy smile instantly spread across my face, curving my lips up to a delightful glint of happiness....

'MY RING' which was worn by the person to whom I have given my whole heart, all my life & all my true love Aaron Maximillian, the one and only son of multi billionaire Mr. Jonathan Maximillian, the owner of AMax International Construction Corporation; one of top 10 companies in United States. Apart from that he is the best friend of my dad Peter Anderson for 15 years.........

Our families are so close because of the friendship our dads have built up between them through out those 15 years of their lives.. That was the path which showed our relationship to bloom from friendship to love....

Since my childhood Aaron Maximillian is the one and only guy who I love as my best friend and since today as my eternal love and my most adorable charming husband. If I could muster up one word for the intensive love I have for him that would be my breath.. In each pulse that my heart throbs, his name is written.... In each breath I take in, his breath is mingled...... The same way my love for him is undeniable I can say his love for me is more intensive than I could ever imagine....

He is the best footballer ace who has ever come across my life and moreover that is the obvious truth which almost everyone knows in United States. Because he has such a commitment from his heart and soul to gain victory for his team.

When we were studying in High school he had gained a good reputation for the talent he had on playing football. So that, should I need to say that he was the most heart throbbing hero almost among every girl in the school. Hundreds of girls were crazy on him to go on their knees to propose him to make him their date. But, I know where his heart has stopped and how it speeds up every time I step towards him and embrace him like there would no other place on than being wrapped in his arms.. To say lots of girls are still running behind him to take my place in his life; his fiencè, detaching me away from him. But, when two hearts beat as one no rumour can break the strings, those hearts have tied together.... How many pairs of eyes keep on looking at me with their penetrating stares whenever I walk along with my Max hand in hand... The more their envied eyes stared at me, the more it made my Max to tight his hold on my hand.. That love I see in his sea blue eyes, make me bliss to the heaven....

I never missed any of his football matches since he started to play for the US team. My little sister Mia Olive Anderson is keen on watching football matches, because of her I could never miss any of his matches. He wanted to be the best football player in the world that he did as well. But, later because of his dad's insistence he had to commit his time in running their business the AMax International Construction Corporation. But still is he the captain of his team and he knows how to manipulate what he does....

"Sia...n..........." suddenly I was startled and taken away from the reverie of my thoughts when my bare shoulder was clemently touched by a well known hand...... I twirled my head towards the voice came closer to me.

"Mum........." my mum was leaning to me from my back, laying her hands still on my shoulder. She had already finished up with my hairdressing. I touched one of her hands with my trembling one. She smiled in a charming way and helped me get on my feet offering her hand and then I was slowly taken to the front of the mirror by her.... My eyes dilated from happiness when I took the first glance at myself in the mirror... I couldn't believe my eyes.... I couldn't believe my own reflection as a Bride today..... My heart fluttered in joy making some unrecognizable chills run down my spine. But sure they were due to my excitement I have been feeling since last few days.

I'm gonna be the wife of Aaron Maximillian....

Is it truly gonna be happened or Am I still dreaming?

The bride of the Love of my life Max that I ever wanted to be of....

Oh god! I'm a bride today..... 

I was looking at my self for a few seconds and literally my eyes welled up with the tears...

"You are so beautiful my princess.........." my mum said standing behind me and that made myself turn back towards her while trying to hide my tears.. The moment my eyes fell on hers I saw a lone tear drop fall out from my mom's eye while she was reaching up to kiss on my forehead.

"Thank you mum.... I love you so much..." I hugged her tightly while patting on her back.

"Love you too my baby girl......" I felt her voice wobble with soreness.

"How fast this time does fly? it's like yesterday I held you in my hands first. Since that moment I was waiting till this day dawns, To see my daughter becomes a bride.... I have been waiting for 21 years to see my little princess like this. Sian... Aaron is really lucky to have you as his wife. I will really miss you my princess...." tears started to roll down her cheeks again.

"Oh Mumma.... you're gonna make me cry. I'm not going anywhere. I will visit you mum. And when you remind me you too can visit me right.... Hm... And I know.. I will miss you too mom.... " 

My heart was grieving inside. I never wanted to make my mum cry. But when it comes to a daughter's wedding day, every mum feels the same pain and sheds heartiest tears mingled with both sadness and happiness... I just wanted to pacify my mom rather giving her pain... I hugged her again.

While both of us were left alone in my room, we heard a sound of footsteps coming towards us...

"M..o..m......... S..i..a..n....." Mia, my sister came in hurriedly carrying the latter part of her dress up as it was too difficult to walk on. She was almost done with her dressings as my maid..

"Wow! S..i..a..n! You look gorgeous girl. Is this really you?" She teased at me. "Today you really look like a princess ...." She came closer to me and kissed on my cheeks..

''Thank you my potato....."

She pouted, but then stuck her tongue out at me...

"Mum dad is waiting for you both down there.. It's almost 8.30. We have to be in the church at 9'o clock.... Aaron and his relatives may have arrived there.... Let's go mum.... Sie come..." Said she continuously looking at both of us... For her age, she talked more like a mature woman.

Mia held my hand and gathered our mum from her other hand and guided us to the down floor.... Dad was walking here and there in the living room followed by some of our relatives as they were eagerly waiting for my arrival... My dad is a very punctual person who never delays anything. So on my wedding he wanted everything to be perfect.

The first instant, dad turned to the side where me, mom and Mia were standing together as the feathers of the same bird, I could rather feel the emotions written on his face...... Then he came towards us giving a slight smile. There was a sorrow inside his smile.. I could feel the pain in his heart. He loves me a lot. He is such an incredible father who someone would really be lucky to be gifted with. I know that he will miss me the way I'm gonna miss him. Because I am the daddy girl who makes my mom jealous every time I cuddle up with my dad. He was looking at me for a couple of seconds having the same smile plastered on his lips. Then came to me and planted a kiss on my forehead.

"Sian You look so beautiful today......." he said cupping my cheeks with his two palms..

"Thank you dad......" I hugged him tightly.

"Well.... Time is up little ladies.... Let's go...." He broke the hug and said making all of us aware about the time. Dad didn't talk much today. I could understand why it was. Because he is gonna miss his big girl hereafter... But I am not gonna go anywhere....

I am just getting married...and gonna have visits...while I am working in our company along with my dad... I will always be his mischievous girl....

Dad took the first step outside our mansion as he was followed by us. We came to our courtyard where my dad's recently bought limousine was waiting for us.....

Dad, mom and Mia got into the car first..... The door was open for me. Before getting into the car I turned back and let out a deep sigh.... Now the thought that I am not gonna live in our mansion was silently taking birth in my heart... A soreness was arising inside my heart..... For the first time in my life I could feel the pain of missing my home, the big mansion of my family..... My home, where I have been living for 21 years is a pearl for me..... The tears which I wanted to keep at the bay at the moment, started to spring up in my eyes when the infinity of memories got started to involuntarily run through my mind... Because after my marriage I would be going to my second home where I would have to bring all my vowes together with Max. Many of things rushed into my mind in this few seconds. As I swept my silent tears away from my cheeks, I was jolted out the reverie of my thoughts when my dad's voice raised behind me...

"Sian... get into the car... Hurry up princess ..... We are already late ..."

"Yeah...... dad.." I wiped the last stains of tears off from the back of my palm before getting into the car.

Few minutes later, we were taken to the St.Claire Church in New York.... Though how famous our dads were in the business world, we wanted our marriage to be so private away from all the papparazzi out there. We needed our utter privacy as we didn't want it to be another rumour that will be a headline in tabloids....

The church was adorably decorated with white lily flowers which had been a dream of mine ever since as I wanted my special day to be filled with white lilies. And white laces were drawn along the aisle in between the two sides of benches inside the church......

We got down from our car to be greeted by the relatives of both Max's and mine... My hand got held by dad as I was taken inside the church...... I heard the sound of church bell when I was walking down the aisle with my dad followed by my maids. Every eye was glued on me... Max's dad, mom and his relatives were looking at me with their heartiest smiles... I felt a ripple of nervousness course through my excited veins as my shivering body got closer a bit by bit... Though I tried to keep my next steps forward, I felt as if they were being drawn back.

Heart beats fast...

Colors and promises...

How to be brave...

How can I love when I'm afraid to fall....

But watching you stand alone...

All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow...

One step closer...

I have died everyday waiting for you...

Darling don't be afraid I have loved you...

For a thousand years...

I'll love you for a thousand more.......... 

( Twilight- Christina Perry)

But soon every fear was vanished in a flash when my eyes landed on the very person whom my heart was craving to see. Max was standing in front of the altar looking at me with a heartiest smile. A mere look of his can heal my heart in an instant.....

A few seconds later I was standing beside him, My Max....

"You look damn beautiful sweetheart...." I held my head downcast as his words were more than enough to make me all red in the face.

"You make me go insane. Can't wait my girl, even for a second... I just wanna runaway with you, right now... Say one "Yes"... I will try.."

What! Did he just say this?

Max whispered into my ears making me go frozen for a while. His face was almost touching my cheeks... I was blushed when his hot breath knocked against my temple...... I looked down and gave a mousy smile at his cheeky words.......

"Oh you are blushing! That's so cute..." He slightly touched one of my hands...... "You are already getting nervous......" His fingers laced up with mine.

"Max... Others are looking at us......" I squeezed his hand softly...... He smiled playfully making me go blushed again.....

"Love you more my Love." He muttered against my ears... I squeezed his palm slightly with mine...

How I love this pretty mischievousness of my man!

love you too Max!

After priest came all stood up including me and Max......

Then priest......

"lord bless and consecrate Aaron Maximillian & Sian Cynthia Anderson in their love for each other, May these rings be a symbols of true faith in each other and always remind them of their love........ Through christ our lord....."

"Amen........"

It was time for us to exchange the sign of our eternal love & fidelity.......

Finally it's gonna be a reality that I'm the wife of Mr.Aaron Maximillian.....

Max took the ring from the ring bearer and glanced at me for a few seconds holding it with his hand.........

I could feel what he was feeling inside..... 

I could sense how his heart beat sped up...... We talked to the hearts of each other's through the swiftness of our heart beats.....

My heart beat ran incredibly faster when Max got held the tips of my fingers of my left hand with his soft ones......

The moment I have been eagerly waiting for it to be dawned has become a truth now....... Giving the last, but the most adorable glare at me, He was ready to place the ring on my finger.......

Boooooomed.............

All of a sudden what I could hear was a zipping sound of a gunfire making my ears dumb...... An imbrue went across my wedding frock....... The ring which was in Max's hand a second ago was spinning on the floor....... My boquet slipped off my hands in an instant as my eyes bulged out in their sockets..... I was left stunned by the view infront of me...... Words could not be expressed when I saw Max struggling for his life on the ground with stains of blood all over his body. His head was freaking bleeding while his chest was heavily raising up and down.

God what did you do to my Max?

"Maaaaaxxxxxx..." I shrieked at the top of my lungs jerking my body towards him... Mom, dad, Max's mom and dad everyone reached up when I literally collapsed down at him.

"Si... Si...an...." 

He outstreched his trembling right hand towards me trying to take my name out. I heard Ryan, one of bestmen of Max run fast outside to catch the gunman...... Some of others also followed Ryan which I could careless at the moment as my whole eyes were only on Max who for fighting for his breaths... Everyone was scattered everywhere.

One of my hands was lying on Max's chest while the other searched it path towards his visage... "Pick him.." I heard voices around him. I was too broken mentally to recognize whose voices coming around me as both my heart and brain were concentrated only on Max.

When someone was going to pick him up he suddenly refused. 

"No... Don't do thi-this.. I do-don't have that much time..." He said with a cracked voice gasping for more air.

"Why are you all looking at him..???? Just.... pick.... him... up....!!!" the next second I shouted as possible as I could....

"Si..an.... No....." he muttered....

"Max... Believe me.... We are getting married... We are gonna start our new life... Look.... Nothing is happened to you... I am here... You are here... We will have a beautiful life... beautiful kids... bea------" said I like a crazy girl bursting into another stream of tears....

"Aaron... My son.. You are a brave man. You will survive....." Max's father's broken voice made everyone weep more and more..

"Aaron...."

"Mom... dad..." he tried to talk while taking deep breaths.

"No Max.. You can't go any where..."

I enveloped him by my two arms...

"Sian..." he held my hand to his warm one. "Don--don't cry..."

"Max..." My eyes pooled with tears making they end up on his heaving chest. I held him tightly against my shivering body.

"Just make a promise to me..." He asked as he tightly interlaced his fingers with mine.

"I would make any promise to you baby. You are going to be my husband.." I felt the own taste of my tears as those words slipped out of me.

"We have been loving for ages and I wanted to make you my wife. Now it seems the fate itself is betraying me. I never thought we would be ending up this way. I--I am so--Sorry for leaving you in the middle, the best moment of our lives...." two streams of tears started tumbling down his cheeks.....

"No... Don't talk such sh*ts.. I am yours.. Only yours.. You are not gonna leave US....." I said wiping my tears off my face and looked up to the faces which were sorrowfully stuck on us... "Why are you still looking at him? Get him to the hospital....." I shouted again....

"No.... I feel it Si-an.... Don't... God wants me now...."

"And I want you too Max.... I want you.. We have built up so many hopes and God won't let them demolish this soon. Believe me Love.. Have faith in our LOVE." he tried to give me a smile which just faded instantly.... and then he clutched onto my hand looking so desperately at me...

"You think I am willingly leave you.. No Love.. God knows how much I adore you, love you.. But he has other plans for us..."

"No..."

"Promise me this.." he tautened his hold on me... "Whatever happened don't let yourself down.... Strengthen yourself.. I know you easily break down.. But this time no.. Never let it happen..."

"I promise..."

"And..." he continued..

"And?"

"You need to marry after me..."

"No..That's not gonna happen.. You are my only Love... You know it as well.."

"But when the life gives you another chance you have to accept it..."

"I can't do it..."

"For me do it..."

"YOU are not going anywhere..."

"That is not the answer.. Promise me... Give me a yes, I can peacefully rest in heaven...."

"Tell me.." I was holding myself back from answering him yes.. Cause the love I have for him is so enormous and intense which would not be possible for me to replace. I can't imagine a life without him...

"fulfill my last wish..." his breaths became heavier as he struggled to keep himself steady and ignore the pain he was going through... "Give me a yes..."

"Yes.." I said unconsciously not sure of my own words as I had my concern laid only upon him... A slight smile took birth on his lips hearing me say yes.... I held my clutch tightly on to him...

"I love you Sian...."Finally he said looking me in the eye and as if on cue a tear drop started to run down on his left temple. I could not help, but cry along with him.... My hero, my prince charming has broken into pieces making everyone's eyes pool with tears.

"I love you too. God, I love you.. You are not going any where."

His hands were trembling.. He caressed my reddened cheeks which were soaked with my miserable tears. I held them tightly into mine. This was a moment no couple should ever imagine in their life. so much pain, so much emotions, so much love and moreover everything felt beyond painful....

"Sian... You will be my-----" Suddenly, he inhaled a long breath and at the same time his eyes went shut and his irresistible struggle came to an end........ My heart rate stopped out of the blue as if I my soul was ripped out of me.....

"Maaaaaaaaaaxxxxxx.......... Nooo, you can't do this to me.... Wake up.. You can't leave me like this.. Wake up........Maaax." I laid my forehead on his whimpering miserably.

"Sian... He is no more....."

"Nooooo" I screamed like a lunatic for the first time ever... My miserable tears irresistibly ran down my cheeks. I heard the shouting of others....

My eyes got blurred and I fell over Max's still, immovable body... 

Everything was disappeared with the darkness..... 

Everything became a nightmare.....

I lost my love..... 

My true love.....

My Max.....
