Taming A Billionaire

Chapter 726 - Seven Hundred And Twenty-six: Owe Her A Favour

The third point of view:

"I think she's coming around,"

Deborah heard whispers and movements as she stirred awake only for a splitting headache to hit her causing her to wince and groan in pain.

"Hey, don't struggle," She heard a coaxing voice while her eyelids fluttered once... twice before adjusting to the light. Finally, the face hovering over her came into view more clearly.

"Who are...?" Deborah tried to ask but her throat was patched.

"Here, have a drink first," Reina handed the glass over to her and helped her sit up so she would be able to drink her water.

When she was done, Reina took the glass from her and placed it on the bedside table.

"What the hell is going on? My head's killing me," Deborah complained, rubbing at her temple as if trying to soothe the pain there.

"You had an accident and the doctor said you would have a concussion. But don't worry, aside from the bruise on your forehead, you're good," Reina smiled at her.

"Oh, thank God," Deborah seemed relieved. She then looked Reina over and remembered, "You're that woman,"

"Yeah, the woman you saved her life," Reina was extremely grateful. Even till now the shock of the accident hadn't left her system. Although her hands were no longer shaking compared to earlier. Now, she was just stuck in between unbelief and gratefulness.

"Trust me, I'm extremely grateful for the fact you saved my life but what you did was incredibly risky. Do you know how much guilt would have plunged me if something happened to you?" Reina asked her.

"I'm sorry about that, ma'm. I just don't know, but when I saw that car approaching you at that speed, I just reacted. All I knew was that there were much higher chances of me surviving than you at that moment and so I did what I thought was right," Deborah explained, buying over Reina's trust without even batting an eye.

"Your parents would be so proud of you," another voice said and that was when Deborah realized that she wasn't alone. She had been very engrossed with Reina, she didn't notice her husband at the corner.

Niklaus shot off the wall he had been leaning on while observing the girl and his wife, Reina and came into view.

Deborah was taken aback by the man's appearance that her mouth remained open for nearly a minute. She thought she had been prepared to meet her father, but the truth was that she was never prepared and his appearance had been a shock.

She stared at him, although he has aged as every biological creature should over the years, he was still stunning as ever. She had been fed pictures and clips of him over the years, but seeing him up close was a whole new experience.

Most of all, she stared into his amber eyes that they shared, although his was a lighter gold than hers, the similarities were there. For hoping sake, she wondered if he would even have the slightest suspicion they were related.

For a moment there, Deborah had this crazy thought that if he accepted her as his daughter and catch up on the lost time with her that she might?forgive him. But then, she caught herself at the last minute. There was no forgiving in her dictionary, shit already happened and this time, there was no more turning back.

"Niklaus...I mean sir, Niklaus," She finally regained her ability to speak and as well, shut her God damn mouth.

"You seem to know me," Niklaus teased her on purpose.

"Who doesn't know you?" Reina said, leaning to his side, "Sometimes I wonder if it's a curse having such a handsome husband,"

Niklaus was smug.

He indeed loved her, Deborah realized. She could feel the affection from there and was almost happy for them until she realized that her mother could have had something like this if he hadn't ruined her life. How could he be at peace and have a loving home when her mother doesn't have one.

Deborah never visited her mother after that day but she made sure to sent money for her up keep and opal's

health care. She made sure to remind her mother that all those luxury came from the daughter, the one she despised - the one she hated the most.

Perhaps, now she was in the city, she would pay a visit to her - especially to visit her sister, Opal. But then, that would be after she was done with her vengeance. Once her goals were fulfilled, she would proudly stand before her mother and tell her that the people who ruined her dreams and life were gone.

"I want to thank you for saving my wife's life. It's a honorable thing you did out there and you can be rest assured that I'd compensate you greatly," Niklaus promised her.

"No, you don't need to bother yourself about that. I'm good," Deborah said.

"I insist,"

"Then pay it in a form of favour then?"Deborah suggested.

Niklaus raised his brows, "Favour?"

"I have enough money to cover the damages, so I don't really need yours. But then, who knows? I might need your help one day," she persuaded him.

"Well, if you put it that why, why not?" Niklaus shrugged, "I owe you one then,"

"Same here," Reina smiled kindly, "Also, do you have a family to spend the night with since you won't be discharged until tomorrow,"

"You don't have to worry about that, I'm good," Decorah assured.

"Then I'll meet you tomorrow morning," Reina said.

"Sure,"

"And thank you once again for saving my life,"

"It was nothing, ma'm," Deborah smiled.

"Goodbye then,"

"Goodbye," Deborah had a smile on her face the entire time until her door was shut close. The woman was kind enough to move her into a private ward.

However, her phone rang almost immediately, piercing the silence and she looked down at the screen only to discover that it was no other than that crazy woman, Jennifer. Deborah snorted, took her that long to call.

Deborah answered the call only for Jennifer to scream into her ears, "What the hell do you think you're thinking?!"
