The Billionaire Next Door

Chapter 2

Tiffany woke up to a comforting and refreshing scent that she had never experienced before. The scent was sweet, inviting, and had a strong masculine aroma mixed with hints of mint and butter. The bed she was lying on was comfortable, and she was covered with a green duvet. Additionally, she realized that she was naked.

She immediately sat up and asked herself, "What happened?" She looked under the duvet to inspect herself and noticed blood on the bed. Tiffany bit her lips and a tear escaped her eye. "I am no longer a virgin!" She had prided herself on remaining a virgin until marriage, but someone unknown had taken that from her. Who was he?

She quickly got out of bed and hurriedly put on her clothes. Her panties were on the bed, neatly placed just as she had come to the party. There was no sign of rough handling or r**e. "Did I give myself to him?" she asked herself.

She thought about it extensively but couldn't find an answer. So, she decided to run away. She couldn't let anyone know what she had done, and besides, it was 8 am, and she had to take her sister, Kayla, to school.

Just as she was about to put on her earrings, she remembered what happened. How she followed an unknown man into his private lobby and how she pestered him for a drink....

"Oh... What have I done?? I need to leave, I need to leave this damn place.” she reasoned, then quickly packed her belongings and left the room. She quickly hailed a cab and rushed home while adjusting her dress in the process.

After paying off the cab driver, she tiptoed while entering through the gate to avoid being heard even though she knew that her mother had known. Tiffany stopped in her tracks when the compound was silent as a graveyard.

"What's going on? Are they not yet awake?” She reasoned aloud before gently opening the door to the sitting room downstairs. It was deserted. On a normal day, her sister would have been running around by now and her mother's shouting filled the house while her father would be reading the newspaper in the sitting room and the servants doing the household chores.

Tiffany became suspicious when the house suddenly fell silent. She even thought that maybe her family was trying to surprise her and catch her off guard later. However, the silence was too concerning to ignore.

She dropped her bag on the dining table and went upstairs to Kayla's room. But what she saw shocked her! Kayla was lying in a pool of blood!

"No... No... This can't be true... This is too cruel, this is not right," she cried as she rushed to her parents' room and found the same horrifying sight. She went to the kitchen and discovered that all the servants were also lying in their own pool of blood.

Tiffany shouted in pain and anguish. What a terrible day to go to a party. She was the only person left... This can't be true.

She ran around every corner of the house. It was just as silent and peaceful as before. The swimming pool was still blue, and the garden was as green as Moses's pasture. Her head was spinning, and she couldn't think straight. It was as if her soul had left her body for a moment. She forgot everything that had happened to her in the hotel room.

"Dad, Mum, Kayla..." she broke down crying again. "What am I going to do? How will I survive without you all? Who are my without you? She asked in tears

After getting some hold on herself, Tiffany picked her phone and called her uncle.

He showed up later with his wife, running inside the mansion.

Mr Donald was an eccentric person, he always carries himself in an air of seniority because he's a teacher, and he was also biased against Tiffany because she refused his offer to come teach at his school since she's jobless. He was also shocked beyond doubt when he saw the dead bodies. He came outside running and fuming in anger. "What have you done, you spoiled brat? He asked, making Tiffany and even his wife cringe in fear.

"Honey what are you saying? His wife asked but he was not ready to let loose of his willpower, "Can't you see? This jobless creature killed her family! He shouted in rage.

"What are you saying uncle? Last night I was not at home, I went to a party, and I came home to find them dead", Tiffany defended.

"Party, huh? "Last night your father called me and told me that you went to a party, despite his disapproval. Are you now trying to tell me that they committed suicide and you didn't kill them?" he asked again. Tiffany started crying uncontrollably once more. Being violated by a stranger and coming home to find the dead bodies of her entire family was already agonizing, and now her uncle is determined to make the situation even worse.

"Uncle, did you think I'll do that? Did you really think I was such a heartless child that would kill her parents and even her sister and even the servants that are at home? She asked aggressively.

"You're clearly blinded by your parents' property that you want them for yourself and you hired assassins to kill them. Who knows? You're jobless, and it is said that a lazy hand is the devil's advocate", he explained.

Tiffany was helpless, this Uncle of hers is really a master of Manipulation. Then his wife interjected.

"You can scold her later, let's get rid of the bodies and contact the family of those servants and get compensation legally because if this matter gets to be legal detained and you're not even free either". The woman explained

Mr Donald looked at Tiffany who was shedding tears as if there was no tomorrow. His brother had always been the one for him in all ramifications. He's dead, even his wife and his daughter are also fine, leaving the spoiled Tiffany behind.

Tiffany was the main suspect in the case if it was pursued legally, but he couldn't do that either good or bad, Tiffany was his brother's daughter.

"You will be held accountable for killing your father. I will make your life extremely difficult," Mr. Donald shouted angrily then left the house to arrange for the cremation of the dead bodies.
