He’s My Ruthless Billionaire
Chapter 64

Hailey's POV I lied.

I lied to him about everything. About everything... About me, liking- loving him or about me not wanna be there.

I have to push him away from me. I can't let myself grow any feelings for him.

I don't wanna get hurt because I know that he will never love me back.

Moreover, I don't even know why I love him. Maybe it's just infatuation and I don't wanna act on it.

He doesn't have feelings for me; so he will not get hurt if I leave him. But by the look on his face when he threw his gun and told me that now he can't hurt me and that I should trust him, I was really sad.

Why is he getting hurt when he doesn't even care about what I do? When he doesn't have feelings for me?

I left the house and contacted Alex. He picked me up from Paris to go back to my home in America.

I also received a hospital address. It must be where mom is. I gave the address to Alex. He probably knew where mom was before, but he said that she was shifted after we tried to run away.

We reached there and after proofing our identities, we got to meet our mom.

"How's she, doc?" I asked looking at her. She was unconscious.

"She is in a coma. Probably long-term. But she is out of danger" the doc replied and checked the monitors. "She will recover. Maybe in many months, but she will"

I nodded my head slowly. "W-What are the monthly bills?" I finally questioned him.

"Um... for her, it is currently $30,000 per 20 days"

30,000 bucks?

Is he serious??

"Huh?"

"Yes, mam. She is lucky to have Mr. Robert Anderson paying for her bills. Not many people can afford this"

I nodded my head and made my way out. He was paying and is... still paying.

Did I do wrong by leaving him?

Should I have never left him?

I shrugged my thoughts. "Hailey?" Alex waved his hand in front of me.

"Y-Yeah" I replied, sitting more comfortably.

"You alright?"

"Just... thinking about things. But alright, yeah"

"Okay. Good"

I smiled at him and he smiled back. "You wanna stay here or go home?"

"I'll stay" I replied, looking towards the ward. "I have met her after so much time after all"

"Okay. I have some work. Call me if you need me"

"Sure"

He nodded and left the hospital. I sat down, thinking about what I can do now.

I-I don't even have any idea how he is now. Is he happy or sad? Does it even matter to him that I am not there anymore?

Suddenly I received a call. It was from... Ron. I remember them. Should I take it?

It rang again, but I decided to not take it.

I need to go away from that life.

I need to do this.

I sat there for some time, then went inside. Talked to mom for some time, didn't tell her about all this mess, of course. But they say talking to the patient helps them recover. After I made my way out, I saw Ron standing there. So, I need to talk to him now.

I went to him.

"What's wrong, Ron?"

"You care about him? Or not?" he questioned straight away, a hint of hurt and disappointment in his eyes.

"1-1..."

"If you do, then visit him. He needs you, right now"

"What? What happened?" I questioned getting upset.

"He has started drinking. Hell, someone needs to stop him or he'll die!" he snapped and I found the ground slipping off my feet as guilt took over me.

It is all my fault.

I shouldn't have ever left him.

"W-Where is he?"

"I'll send you the address" he left and I immediately took out my phone. He texted me the address and I went there. It was my old address, my old home, where I had lived with him for so long.

I reached inside the house and saw him taking a bottle of beer. He even looks drunk already. As he was about to open it, I stopped him.

"No, Robert, stop!" I yelled and he froze. He looked up at me and I saw his eyes suddenly moisten.

I went near him and took the bottle away. "I-I heard that you have a danger to your life? Because of this!?"

He looked at me stilled and didn't say a word. "Robert!" I exhaled, irritated.

"Why are you here?" His voice was cold, hurt, and rough. I could smell alcohol from him, and I could feel the hurt in his voice.

Is he hurt too?

"1-1-"

"Just leave" he stood up and looked away. "Please"

"Robert, listen" I turned him around. "You... you were going through AWS. You almost went past that. So... why this? Again drinking?"

"You don't know?" he faked a laugh. "Hell, Hailey I told you. I need one thing in my life. Either you, because you were like a drug I was addicted to or I need real drugs. You left, but no. These drugs will never leave me. They are here through my worst" I looked at him as my heartfelt heavy hearing his words.

Did I make him go through the worst?

"R-Rob-"

"Just leave! Leave like Max. I don't need a single soul!"

I thought of going near to him, but he pushed me away. "Leave"

"Do you want this?" I asked, my eyes almost blurry.

"Yes" I heard his bold voice and I looked at him to confirm that. "I want you to leave"

I looked at the beer bottles. "Promise me you won't drink, and I'll leave"

"I won't"

"Huh?"

"I won't drink. Just leave"

I nodded my head and made my way out.

He hates me so much that he can leave drinking so that he can be away from me.

What else did you expect, Hailey?

You left him like that. When Max left him, he needed someone the most.

Of course, he hates you.

Shit, I hate myself for doing that.
