The office was awfully quiet as Rome looked at Mr. Jackson. Then his eyes became cold and his mood shifted from calm to dominant as he asked, "Is there something you are not telling me?"

"Of course not! I was just wondering why you are so invested in the person that has been texting me" Mr. Jackson asked in confusion.

Maintaining eye contact with him, Rome rested back in his seat and said, “I say this most respectfully, 'It's none of your business. So are you going to give me the phone or not?" 

"I see, Mr. Ford doesn't trust me that's why you wouldn't be clear with me."

Staring intensely at Mr. Jackson, Rome stayed composed and silent, knowing fully well that truth was something he couldn't afford to give a stranger, especially with his current situation.

“I know your phone is also your privacy and I have no business accessing it. So, can you write the number on a sheet instead?" Rome calmly uttered, finally realizing

"Shouldn't we be calling the ambulance instead!" His friend lashed out at him. The noise seem to get louder as more people arrived on the scene. "Oh my!

    “Knock, knock…” K called out as he stood at the room door with Mr. Orlando by his side. For a moment, Rome blankly gazed at the wall. Then he slowly turned his head and stared at the two of them. After shutting the door behind him, Mr. Orlando followed K further into the room and then they both pulled a chair closer to the bed and sat down. “How are you doing now?” K asked, still feeling concerned because, among the three of them, Rome was the one who took the hit. “I'm fine. It's nothing that a few painkillers can not fix. How about you two?" Rome calmly uttered. "We are okay. The doctor cleared us."

    When the bright light from the sun shone in his face, Rome immediately opened his eyes, staring at Catherine standing at the window."Why is the sun so bright this early?" Rome moaned, shifting over to the other side of the bed."Oh, it's because it's noon and not morning." Catherine casually uttered.Immediately Rome sat up, gazing at her in disbelief. Then he softly cried, "Babe what did you do?""I turn off the alarm and your phone so you can rest today, and judging from the time you woke up, I made the right decision," Catherine explained while watching his face change emotions with every word she uttered.Frustrated, Rome pushed the blanket off him, buried his face into his palms, and mumbled, "Babe, babe babe, Ahhh, why would you do that?!"When he lifted his head to gaze at her, Catherine pouted and pitifully uttered, "I thought I just explained it to you."Staring at the innocent look on her face, Rome started laughing out his

Catherine calmly asked."Should I set up extra plates for sir?""No. He's at a business meeting, and I don't think he will be coming home soon.""Oh,"After a couple of minutes passed and Mini had not left, Catherine slightly frowned at her and asked, "Do you have anything else you want to say?""No, ma'am!"

    As the first light of a new day crept into the room, Catherine slowly raised her eyelids and then frowned as she noticed that Rome's side of the bed was empty.When Catherine heard the sound of rushing water, she got up from the bed and headed into the bathroom.The moment Rome heard the door open, he pulled his shirt-sleeve over the plaster on his arm, turned around, and stared back at her as his face softened into a smile."Good morning, babe," Rome said, noticing the way she was suspiciously staring at him."Did something happen at the meeting?" Catherine asked, hoping for the truth this time."No. It went well.""Oh, okay."Without uttering another word to Rome, Catherine walked out of the bathroom, ignoring him when he called out, "Are you okay, babe!?""What's wrong with her?"

  • A Billionaire In Disguise   Announcement concerning Book Three

    By Monday, "Living as a billionaire" will get marked as "completed." But I have scanned through all of the comments and reviews. I remember telling my sister that "Living as a billionaire," will be the end of Rome and Catherine's story. But you guys have given me a change of mind, and right now, I can't tell you all that there is a solid idea for book three because my brain is focused on another novel I'm writing which is not in the same genre as, "Living as a billionaire." I write a bunch of random, messy up ideas, so my stories usually fall into different categories and audiences. Back to what I was saying, Mmmh, so yeah, that novel has my attention right now. But if Book three is something any of you will want to read, then please keep "Living as a billionaire" bookmark, and I will be back with a new announcement concerning Book three name and release date.

    *I don't even know where to start! Umm… My brain feels like a marshmallow. I slept for hours after updating the remaining chapters. But I am just so freaking happy for all the comments and the review I woke up to. *Book two wasn't a stable plan, and I had barely a paragraph for the entire book plot which was scary from the very beginning. So, seeing how far this book came and hearing you guys say that you like it, makes me speechless in a good way. *I am this crazy overthinking person, and if it was left with me, I would have assumed "Living as a billionaire" as the worst and given up on it. But you guys, you all made this book happen with the constant comments, gems, reviews, and purchases of the chapters. *Usually,

    Pushing her hair behind her ear, Catherine smiled broadly. Then she looked to stare upward into Rome's eyes when he hugged her from the back."Look who's tummy is getting bigger," Rome whispered as his manly hands gently rested on her stomach."I can't believe he's already spent twelve-week in my stomach," Catherine whispered, gazing at her reflection in the mirror."He? Our baby is a she. Daddy little princess." Rome softly uttered.At first, Catherine pouted a bit. Then she chuckled and mumbled, "Should we do one of those fancy babies' gender reveal parties because at this point everyone seems to have their opinions about our baby's gender."As Rome

    The moment the sunlight hit his face, Rome's hand searched his bed for his phone as he slowly raised his eyelids, and then blinked his eyelashes to adjust his vision to the bright light glowing in their room.Once he got a hold of his phone, he sat up in bed and unlocked it, then a frown settled on his lip as he stared at the fifteen missed calls notifications on his screen."Why is this Mathew guy calling back to back so early!" Rome mumbled.Sighing heavily, he called back, patiently waited, and after a few seconds, he said, “Good Morning, Mathew."“Good morning, Mr. Ford. I'm calling to find out if you are ready to cooperate with us today, or should we do this with force?"

    After bringing his car to a stop in front of the St Louis Cardinals hospital, Rome pushed the door open and raced into the building.When he got to the waiting room, Amara was pacing back and forth with a look of fear in her eyes and plaster on her arm.The moment she saw Rome, she rushed to him and cried out, "My blood is not compatible with his. You have to help him out, please!!!""How are Axel and I related?!" Rome lashed out, unable to contain his anger and eagerness for the truth."He's your first cousin, Rome! Your uncle's first son!

    The atmosphere quickly became hostile, and no one dared to move or utter a word as K clutched onto his side while choking on his blood."What the hell have you done!" Rome screamed, finally getting over his shock and realizing that his bodyguard had just taken a bullet to the stomach for him.Ignoring his remark, Axel fixed his cold gaze directly on Rome's angry expression. Then he frowned at Rome with the gun pointed directly at him and calmly said, "It's time to be your father's payment for redemption."Abruptly, the sudden sound of a silver vehicle speeding into the parking lot drew everyone's attention, and before Axel could get out of the way, the car bumped into him, sending him a few feet forward before he fell over to the floor.

    A loud knock echoed into Axel's room, forcing him to leave his bed and walked over to the door. When he opened it, Axel scowled at his man and gazed the other way before walking back inside. “Boss, there's a problem,” Hunan said as he followed his boss further into the room. “What's the problem?” Axel mumbled, taking in a deep breath to ignore the anger he felt. When Hunan's gaze met his cold eyes, the room fell silent, and the atmosphere became awkward. Then he coughed slightly, stared away from Axel, and said, "I just got word that Richard went over to the safe house this morning." "What! How could they let him inside!... Who let him inside!" Axel roughly said, squeezing his fist. "I don't know, boss. He came demanding to talk face to face with you and refused to leave." Hunan mumbled, keeping his gaze glued to the f
