Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56There were a lot of mixed emotions circling in the study, and everyone had some kind of feeling towards Charles's news, except for Rome since he felt like he had better things to think about than Charles' romantic affair.
Although Edward felt like his son should have given him a heads up before doing something this risky, he still felt like a proud father, and his hope of Charles becoming the family top inheritor was growing stronger again.
The only one who had a bad feeling towards Charles news was Anthony, and unable to keep up the act of a supportive uncle, he stood to his feet.
“Congratulations, Charles,” Anthony half-heartedly uttered.
Then he walked away from the couch and left the study.
Watching the door shut behind his uncle, Charles smirked, feeling like he was at the edge of victory.
“If grandfather has nothing else to say, then I will like to take my leave.” Catherine calmly intoned as she stood from the c

From the moment Catherine set her eyes on Estelle, she wasn't a fan of hers. But the lustful look in Estelle’s eyes as she stared at Rome was getting on Catherine's nerve and making her really despise her. With a cold expression, Rome gazed at Estelle for a moment. Then he narrowed his eyes and tried to walk past her, but she hastily rested her palm against his chest, causing him to stop. “What do you think you are doing?” Catherine coldly uttered, glaring at her. However, Estelle ignored her, fluttered her lashes as she drew her hand to her side, and sweetly said, “I'm sorry. I just want to ask where the bathroom was.” “Estelle,” Charles called out as he walked over to them. When he came closer, she immediately looked away from Rome and stared at him with a sweet smile on her lips. “Why are you here? I thought you were heading to the bathroom?” Charles asked as he rested his hand around her waist. “I'm sorry, love. I lost my w

The event from yesterday night kept troubling her mind and each time she gazed at Rome, she was amazed and baffled at how he could sleep so soundly. After staring at him for a while, she sat up, rested her feet on the tiles, and buried her face in her palms. “Can't sleep?” Rome asked as he raised his lashes and gazed at her. Shocked by the sound of his voice, Catherine looked back. Then she tried to smile, but her lips rebelled against her, and she was left with a stiff expression. “I don't know…” Catherine muttered, pausing as she tried to figure out how she felt at that moment and

Those words were said out of ignorance.” Without mentioning a word to him, Mr. Ford looked at Catherine and calmly intoned, “I called your office, and you weren't there. Since what I have to say is important, I decided to stop by. I hope it's not a problem.” Waking from her shock, Catherine slightly shook her head and uttered, “Of course not.” When Mrs. Barlow snapped back to reality, she stared at the maid and said, “What are you standing around here for! Tell everyone in the kitchen that we have an extremely important guest and they should prepare a few more dishes.” Afterward, she looked at Mr. Ford and gently intoned, “I hope you can grace this family by having dinner with us.” Swaying his focus off Madam Rosey, Mr. Ford stared at Rome, and even though he shook his head to signal his father not to stay, Mr.

Then he walked over to the couch, sat down, and said, “Good morning, Father.”“You are early.” Mr. Ford mumbled, closing his newspaper.Staring at his watch, Rome sighed and said, “I know. But if I had waited for the actual meet-up time, I would have to lie to Catherine. So I left a note instead.”There was a brief moment of silence. Then Mr. Ford rested his newspaper on the couch as he stood up and said “Well since you are here. How about breakfast?”“Sure,” Rome mumbled, standing to his feet.When the daylight had faded a bit at five o'clock, R

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. Hopefully, it will be soon, but my hands are filled right now, and I don't w
A Billionaire In Disguise Author's "Thank you" note
*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
