He’s My Ruthless Billionaire
Chapter 15

Hailey's POV

I stood there numb. I stopped feeling my legs till now when he was just standing in front of me, with an emotionless face.

"R-Robert, c-can I-" I asked once again.

"Just stay there Corazon!" he cut me in between.

Suddenly the door flew open and Max was standing there. He looked at me with wide eyes and saw the pool of blood below my toes. "B-boss"

"Max. Out," he said silently.

Max stood still for a moment, and then held eye contact with me.

He broke it as soon as it started.

"Boss, act-"

"Max. Get. The. F**k. Out. Of. Here!" he said exaggerating each word.

"Boss, it is important..." he said.

Robert turned around now and looked at him.

"B-boss, CCTV camera of your room is hacked... Arthur and Patrick are trying, but they can't replace the source and can neither deny access to them" "I'll do it," he said and turned to face me again..

I was holding the wall on my side. I couldn't stand up front, my toes were paining like hell.

"And you," he said looking at me.

I looked at him back, held eye contact, his eyes changed color again. "Nothing," he said and left the room.

I exhaled a deep breath as soon as he left. Max came running to me then and bent down to look at my toes.

"Oh f**k!" he cursed.

I was looking at him. He looked at me back. "How can you let him do this?" he asked me.

There was genuine concern in his voice. Guess everyone here is not a monster. "I-I'm fine," I said.

"Sit down now," he said. I started walking towards my bed, but he stopped me.

"Mrs. Hailey, don't walk!" he said, almost frustrated.

"What?" I asked.

He just asked me to sit down, didn't he?

"The pieces will go further deep. Just stand still until I..." he started looking here and there and then brought a chair where I was standing. "Sit," he said. I sat down. It was at least better now.

"Let me remove the pieces," he said and kept my leg on his hand, as he crunched down.

"No! You'll hurt yourself!" I said.

"No, I'm trained," he said. But I doubt it. He hurt himself twice.

As he was removing the last piece, I heard a chuckle.

Robert.

"Am I disturbing something?" he said. "Never thought you'll have such an interest, Hailey," he said. "W-what?" I asked.

"Max," he said. "Which CCTV was hacked?" he asked in a sarcastic tone.

"You lied?" I whispered to him. He heard it, I'm sure but didn't reply.

He got up taking the last piece out too and faced Robert.

"Y-your room," Max said.

"You know what I'm gonna do with you now" Robert threatened.

"Yeah I do," Max said. "And I am not afraid"

"Oh sure, you'll be" he smirked. "Ron," he said slowly to his earplug.

Soon Ron came running towards the room.

"Boss?" he said.

"Take Max to the torture room. Now."

"B-boss?" he asked wide-eyed to Robert.

"You don't want me to repeat myself, do you?" Robert asked in a threatening voice.

"M-max?" Ron ignored Robert and looked at Max.

Max nodded his head slowly and hesitantly Ron came forward and took him with him. "S-sir," I said.

He left the room without another word.

Max's POV

As I got a little away from the room, Ron stopped abruptly.

"What the fuck is going on, man!" he yelled.

Yup, for the first time.

Didn't know he can yell too.

"He is torturing that girl," I said.

"Wha- Mrs. Hailey?" he asked.

"Yes, and I'm a human. What would you have done if you step into a room and you see a girl who is standing on glass pieces, a pool of blood is flowing out with just no fault of hers? She was helpless, in front of that heartless monster!" "You're calling him, monster?"

"Yes, I am. I respect him, you know that. But come on, what is her fault? She is just an innocent girl!"

"That's true... now what will he do to you?"

"I don't care. But if I make it alive, I'll repeat this" I said.

"I'll support ya," he said and then we started moving again. Soon I reached the ******e room.

"Tie me," I said to Ron.

"You know I will not," he said.

"Come on!"

"Never," he said and went out.

Soon Robert entered the room.

"Get up and go back," he said.

Wait. He will not say or do anything?

"What?" I asked.

"You know I won't hurt you, you're like my brother and I respect you. But you don't have to lie to me" he stood leaning on the wall. "What's her fault?" I asked.

"She cares!!" he yelled and stormed out of the room.

Robert's POV

I went back to our room. There she was, sitting on the bed. She must be hurting because her fists were clutching the bedsheet.

Maybe now she will never care.

And that's what I exactly want.

She stood up when she realized my presence.

What the hell. Does she have to stand up?

"Sit down" I ordered.

"Is Max ok?" she asked sitting down.

Woah. They care a lot about each other, don't they?

"Hm," I said.

She nodded her head.

"Get ready," I said.

"What?" she asked.

"Get ready we have to go out tomorrow," I said.

"W-where?" she asked.

"Like I am gonna tell you," I said.

"Please tell"

"To the award ceremony," I said and went out of the room.

Hailey's POV

Award ceremony?

What the actual f**k?

He & awards?

What are these kinds of...

Most cruel human award?

No no,

The biggest mafia business, I guess.

Yes, of course.

Like that will be an award!

I mocked myself.

Then a lady came into my room.

"Mam, Sir sent me to treat your leg," she said. I nodded but what kind of guy is he?

First, he hurts me and tells me that he loves to hurt me, and now...

"Done!" she said after some time. I smiled and she left.

Next day

He didn't come back to the room the whole day.

6 PM

I got up with my almost-fine legs and changed into a dress suitable, and made my hair.

I went down and there he was. He was looking handsome as always.

"We're married, so," he said. "I want you to be my wife, tonight," he said and took my hand softly and led me to his car. This is gonna be interesting.
