Resting his gaze on Scar, Rome frowned and said, "It's not the time or the place to wallow in self-pity. You want to feel useful! Okay then, I need you to find out how these media platforms are getting hold of this news so quickly."
There was a brief pause as Rome intensely stared at K, Brook, and Blaze without speaking.
Then he raised his chin and said, "For now, the only advantage this person has over me is their identity. And that puts me at a disadvantage because they know who they are fighting, but I don't."
It fell silent for a moment as Rome held back his words and intensely gazed at his men, and then he firmly said, "We need to even the field by finding out who we are up against. That's the on

The instant Catherine saw Chloe walking into her office, she looked her dead in the eyes and raised her chin as her expression grew cold. "Dear cousin, if a stranger was in this room with us, they might mistake us to be enemies because of the way you are looking at me right now," Chloe said, taking a seat on the chair with a soft smile on her lips. "Why are you here?" Catherine coldly asked without losing her icy expression. "So you are just going to make me go straight to the point?" "Yes. Now, what's your reason for being here?" Even though she tried to keep up the act, there was tension in Chloe's grin, and slowly her smile began to fade until her face became darker. "Well, after finding out that your husband almost killed Earl and beat him into a coma, I felt the need to stop by and check up on you to see how you are doing." Chloe said, striving to continue playing the caring cousin card. "Thank you for your concern,

"It is open. Come in," Rome's said with his focus on his phone. The door immediately opened, and Brook walked into the suite, shutting it gently behind him. Then he approached Rome with a folder in his hand, and when he reached him, he rested the folder on the table. After glancing at the folder for a moment, Rome stared back at his phone and mumbled, "What's in it? "As you wanted, I investigated all the employees of 'Customers and Board Protection authorities of Archenland,' and there's one person who has connections with Earl," Brook said. "What is their name?" Rome asked, still staring at his phone. "Toby. Apparently, he and Earl's personal assistant had a brief meeting recently. These are photos from CCTV cameras showing them at a ca

The first thought that crossed Rome's mind was that if he was speaking with the puppets' master. But he kept silent about his curiosity and asked, "Is there a reason you want us to know each other?""Yes." The fellow said from the other side of the call. "Is it possible for us to meet and talk, let say this evening, by eight o'clock?"Although there were so many questions roaming in Rome's head that he desperately wanted an answer to, he remained calm and said, "Sure. You know where I stay, right?"The line suddenly became quiet for a moment, and Rome grew impatient by every second that went by in silence. Then he finally heard, "Yes. You stay at 'Hotel Plaza.' Is that where you want us to meet?""Yes. At the hotel restaurant." Rome said, striving to stop himself from asking the one question that he so desperately one to ask."Okay.

Biting on her bottom lip, Chloe took a long look at Rome, and then she smirked and said, "There's no need to be shy. It's just the two of us here." When Rome didn't speak or look her way, Chloe got annoyed, but she suppressed her feelings as a lopsided grin surfaced on her lips, and softly intoned, "I want you, Rome!" There were so many thoughts running through Rome's head, and even though a lot of things didn't make sense, he knew one thing for sure that he needed to get out of there. "Can you at least look at me when I am talking to you?" Chloe softly cried, sniffing gently. "Hell no!" Rome mumbled, furrowing his brows. Then without thinking for a second, he turned around and started heading for the door. As he was about to reach the handle, he felt a tender hand grab his wrist and hold onto it tightly. "I know that in the past, I picked on you a lot and said all kinds of mean stuff to you, but I did it because I liked

When Rome got home, he was about to head upstairs when he saw Scar approaching him from the opposite direction. With a look of confusion in his eyes, he faintly smiled and mumbled, "Boss, you are home," "Yeah," Rome muttered, looking over Scar's shoulder. "Did something happen to Catherine?" "No. Miss is upstairs, in your bedroom." "Then why isn't sh…" Holding in the rest of his statement, Rome walked past Scar and hurried upstairs, heading straight for their bedroom. When he got inside, an his gaze rested on Catherine, laying on the bed, he let out a sigh of relief as he gently closed the door. Then he walked over to the bed, sat beside her, and gazed at her face. At first, he didn't notice it. But after taking a closer look at Catherine's eyes, he saw that her lashes were fluttering. "Are you asleep?" Rome mumbled without taking his eyes off hers. Gently squeezing her eyelids, Catherine pin

The dining table was quiet as Catherine and Rome had their breakfast. But she was all smiles as she bit into her toast. "What is it?" Rome asked, looking adoringly at her. "Nothing. I'm just happy." Catherine mumbled without losing her smile. Slightly shaking his head, Rome gave a brief chuckle before focusing on his bowl of strawberries. It got quiet again, but two minutes later, Daniel, the head of the house security, walked into the dining room, disturbing the quietness as he said, "Ma'am, your cousin's husband is here." "Dash?" Catherine asked, frowning faintly. "Why is he at our home this early?!" "Allow him inside, and take him to the living room." Rome calmly uttered. Nodding slightly, Daniel looked at him and said, "Yes, boss." Then he turned around and walked out of the dining room. "Did Chloe not contact Dash already to tell him where she is?!" Catherine said in annoyance. "Hey, it's fine. Fini

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,

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! Mr. Ford's oldest brother's child! And also, my father's firstborn.""You are lying!"

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
