A Trillionaire in University 29. The senator's wayward son
Chapter twenty nine: The senator's wayward son.That same week, I had another dinner with Senator Sanders. This time, he chose a cozy little Italian restaurant tucked away in a quiet corner of the city. He said he wanted to avoid the public eye because reporters had been following him everywhere.He sent a car to pick me up at my house and drop me at the location. I found myself at a dark alley and was so confused. I glanced around nervously, wondering if I had somehow ended up in the wrong place. "Oh my gosh, I don't wanna die," I thought, already freaking out. As I took hesitant steps forward, the sound of my heels echoed off the cobblestone pavement. I kept adjusting my black minidress. I clutched my purse tightly, half expecting a masked figure to leap out from the shadows at any moment.Just as panic threatened to consume me entirely, I spotted a faint glow emanating from the end of the alley. There was a discreet sign tucked away in a corner, barely visible in the dim light. It

Chapter thirty: Insufferable + Predictable As I carried Scott up and rested his right arm on my shoulders, he opened his eyes a little. He muttered something I could not quite understand. Despite his disheveled state, there was a vulnerability about him that tugged at my heartstrings. Senator and I gently placed him on the couch in the living room."I'm gonna go make some hangover medicine," Senator said to me as he went back to the kitchen.I was left alone with Scott. I glanced at him; his hair was ruffled and his shirt was inside out. It was strange seeing him like this, so troubled and helpless."You know, you're not making things easy for your dad," I muttered under my breath, more to myself than to Scott. But to my surprise, he let out a soft groan, his eyes fluttering open slightly."Hey there, sleepyhead," I said. "You had quite a night, huh?"Scott grunted in response, rubbing his temples with his fingers. I imagined his head was banging and his eyes were blurry. "Jessica? I

Chapter thirty one: Damage controlAs I walked out of the mansion through the front door, I was met by a barricade of reporters and newscasters. As cameras were clicked, flashlights blinked and were almost blinding to my eyes. Microphones were being shoved at my lips. A hurricane of questions hit my ears all at once. The interviewers tried to force their way through the entrance, shoving and pushing against my skin. "Miss Jessica Raye Kardashian, can you tell us about your relationship with Senator Sanders?""Are you getting married to his son?""Are you planning to run for office yourself?""Are you in a romantic relationship with the senator?"I struggled to find my voice among the throng of crowd. I ducked into the car and sank into the plush seat, eager to escape the chaos outside. As soon as I arrived home and settled onto my comfy couch, my phone began to buzz incessantly with text messages. "I'm heading over to your place right now," Rachel's message flashed across the screen.

Chapter thirty two: A very complicated woman.I had two people I trusted in the entire world, Rachel and my mother. If my world ever came crashing down, I knew they would stick with me through the storm and the rain. Rachel had been my best friend for two years but it already felt like we had known each other our entire lives. I valued their opinions a lot. Even without asking, I knew my mom would be completely against an arranged marriage. She loved my father; she still does. She always wanted me to marry for love too – a marriage founded on love, not convenience or obligation.And Rachel? Oh, she absolutely hated Scott too. "I don't know what to do, Rach," I confessed.Rachel shook her head, her expression mirroring my own uncertainty. "This is a mess, Jess. Marrying Scott Sanders is not exactly a dream scenario.""I know, right? But it seems like the only way to salvage my reputation and save BrainBoost from sinking.""I get it, but are you really willing to tie yourself to that g

Chapter thirty three: Marry me?My voice echoed in the room. Butch paused, his hand freezing mid-air with the buzzing needle. The smell of the alcohol got stronger and the buzzing sound of the tattoo machine got louder as I waited for his reply.He looked at me incredulously and blinked. "What? Is this some kind of joke?" he questioned, laughing."Let's talk in private," I said, realizing that a lot of eyes had turned to us."Alright. But you have five minutes," he replied as he stood up, wore his clothes and followed me outside.The night air was cool and windy. As the cold air wrapped around me, a gentle breeze played with my hair, sending shivers down my spine. I hugged myself tightly, rubbing my arms in a futile attempt to ward off the chill that crept beneath my skin."Are you cold?" He asked without any emotion in his eyes."Yeah, it's a bit chilly, but I'll manage,"I shrugged.He arched an eyebrow, his expression unreadable. "Why wear a sleeveless dress in weather like this?"

Chapter thirty four: Mama BearA week later, preparation for the wedding was in full swing. Nobody warned me about how hard it was to plan a wedding, especially when it was a fake one. I found myself buried under a mountain of wedding magazines and endless to-do lists, all while trying to maintain the facade of a happily engaged bride-to-be.As I juggled appointments with vendors and tried to keep track of seating arrangements, I couldn't help but wonder if it was all worth it. In spite of everything, it wasn't a real wedding, but the effort and stress were all too real. Yet, amidst the chaos, there was a small part of me that couldn't deny the excitement of it all, even if it was just for show."This is the formal contract for our marital agreement," I said to Scott handing him a 30 pages document. We found ourselves at my favorite tea shop for another one of our "meetings." At least, it wasn't a scary tattoo studio this time. Scott lounged across the table from me, legs crossed and

With everything else going on, we completely forgot to buy a dress," I cursed, realizing our oversight."Well, we still have a little time.""Okay. Just order something online," I replied absentmindedly, my attention already drifting back to the papers scattered across the table. "What the heck? Ordering a wedding dress online is like inviting a curse to follow you around forever," Rachel exclaimed, feigning shock and horror.I couldn't help but burst into laughter at her dramatic declaration. "Oh no, not the dreaded online shopping curse! We can't risk it," I replied, joining in on the playful theatrics.Rachel gasped dramatically, clutching her chest as if warding off an impending curse. "I'm not kidding. The wedding curse of bad luck is very real.""What bad luck is worse than getting married to Scott Sanders?" I asked but I didn't e

Chapter thirty six: No pictures, please!Moments later, the manager hurriedly rushed over, sensing that a blushing bride to be was about to lose her temper. "What's going on here?" The manager's question was directed at the rude sales rep, who stood with a defiant posture."I was just about to call security to deal with another window shopper," she retorted as she glanced in my direction."A what? Are you out of your mind? This is tech CEO, Jessica Raye," exclaimed the manager. "Sir, I... I... tho... thought.." the sales rep stammered. It was satisfying to see the sales rep's arrogance deflate like a popped balloon"You thought what?! Did you think it was right to judge a person you don't know based on their appearance? Or did you think you could embarrass people and treat them with disrespect just because of their status in the society?"The words tumbled out of me. I couldn't believe someone could be so freaking annoying, and I wasn't about to let her off the hook without a piece

A Trillionaire in University 46. My husband!
Chapter forty sixThere was one feeling I loved more than anything in the world. It was a feeling I cherished above all others, that I would do anything to hold onto. No, it wasn't the joy of winning the lottery (though that would be nice). It wasn't the thrill of skydiving or bungee jumping (let's be honest, that's more like heart-stopping terror than love). It wasn't even the satisfaction of finding the last slice of pizza in the fridge at midnight (although that's pretty high up on the list).It was the feeling of being truly understood. The feeling of being seen, not just for the mask I wore or the role I played, but for the person I was at my core. To have someone look into my eyes and see the essence of who I am, to hear my words and understand the thoughts and emotions behind them, that was a feeling unlike any other.I only felt that way in the arms of Scott Sanders, my husband. I felt truly alive, truly connected, as if I had found my place in the universe. After a long day a
A Trillionaire in University 45. Threats and Power
Chapter forty five: Threats and PowerAs the morning light streamed through the curtains, I slowly opened my eyes to the sight of two warm, captivating brown eyes fixed on me with unabashed adoration. It was Scott, my beloved, greeting me with a tender smile."Good morning, beautiful," he greeted with affection.I chuckled lightly. "Have you been staring at me again, mister?" I teased, the corners of my lips lifting into a playful smile."How did God create a woman so perfect in every way?" he mused, his fingers tracing a delicate path along my right cheek."I guess we'll never know," I replied, meeting his gaze with a playful wink, knowing that in his eyes, I was indeed perfect.As Scott leaned in, his lips poised to meet mine in a tender morning kiss, I playfully swerved away. With a giggle, I swiftly pulled the sheets up, covering myself completely. "Oh, no you don't," I exclaimed, my laughter bubbling up as I hid beneath the cozy fortress."Come on, don't hide from me," he tease
A Trillionaire in University 44. The first time
⚠️ Warning: This is for readers 18+Back in my house, as I slipped out of my clothes and into the soft silk of my nightdress, my mind kept circling back to that tense encounter with Scott earlier in his office. It was the first time I had seen that side of him—assertive, calculating, and unyielding. And strangely, it ignited a fire within me that I hadn't expected. As much as I wanted to resist and stick to the marriage contract, I found myself drawn to the raw power he exuded, the way his eyes gleamed with intensity. I realized there was a side to Scott I had never explored, a side that awakened desires I never knew existed. And as I stood there in the dim glow of my bedroom, bathed in the soft light of the moon, I couldn't shake the feeling that I wanted more. I wanted his touch to linger on my skin and ignite a hunger that burned deep within me. I craved the feel of his hands, the heat of his body pressed against mine. It was intoxicating, irresistible.But as much as I yearned fo
A Trillionaire in University 43.1 Who is Laura?
Part 2: Who is Laura?Once upon a time, Laura had been a young and ambitious teenage girl with a thirst for adventure. She was always a thrill-seeker, looking for excitement in all the wrong places. She met Big Tony, the notorious leader of a small-time gang, at a rundown bar on the outskirts of town. Despite his rough exterior, there was something charming about Tony that drew Laura to him like a moth to a flame. They quickly fell into a passionate whirlwind romance, fueled by adrenaline and the promise of a life less ordinary. They were partners in crime, planning heists and pulling off daring robberies across the city.The infamous robbery that sealed their fate was at the city's most prestigious jewelry store. Laura and Tony orchestrated an elaborate plan to steal a collection of priceless diamonds. This diamond was not just any gem; it was rumored to be a priceless heirloom with significant monetary value. With Laura's cunning and Tony's muscle, they successfully executed the he
A Trillionaire in University 43. The tattoo studio
Chapter forty three: The tattoo studio.Scott took a u-turn at a very familiar street. At the end of road, I saw a neon sign looming ahead. It was the tattoo studio where I had asked Scott to marry me."Why are we here?" I asked."Just follow my lead," he replied cryptically.We parked in front of the studio, the neon sign casting an ethereal glow over the pavement. Stepping out of the car, I followed Scott as he strode purposefully towards the entrance. "Hey, boss," they greeted him.Butch, the tattoo artist, a burly man with a bushy beard, looked up from his workbench and greeted us with a nod."Back so soon with the wifey?" he asked, his tone gruff yet friendly.Scott flashed him a wry grin. "I'm not here for tattoos this time," he said, motioning towards me.He took me to his inner office. The walls were adorned with an eclectic collection of artwork, dominated by nude, obscene paintings of women in provocative poses. The scent of rich tobacco cigarettes hung heavy in the air, min
A Trillionaire in University 42. Hear my truth.
Chapter forty two: Hear my truth.I could not risk helping a wanted criminal with a heist. The only thing I had been stealing those days were hearts – metaphorically, of course. Need I mention that I'm too pretty to go to jail – and far too fabulous for a life of crime. I knew for sure that I was not cut out for life behind bars? I mean, orange may be the new black, but it's definitely not my color, darling. Plus, have you seen the food they serve in prison?On a more serious note, there I was, a successful CEO with everything to lose, being blackmailed by my own sister, a fugitive wanted by the FBI. It was like something out of a twisted crime thriller, only this was my reality. I had worked too hard to build my reputation and my empire from the ground up to throw it all away for a daring heist. I had clawed my way to the top, overcoming countless obstacles and naysayers along the way, and I wasn't about to let my sister's reckless antics derail my hard-earned success.No, I had to t

Chapter forty one: The secret is out"Laura, what's going on? How are you?"She didn't reply. Instead, she offered me a tight-lipped smile, her eyes darting around the room as if searching for something. "Look at this huge ass office for only you. It's way bigger than the tiny apartment we grew up in. Jason, mom, dad, you and me all squeezed together. Do you remember that excuse for a home we lived in?" She said with a bitter laugh."You look... different," I simply stated."Really? Well, not much has changed for me," she said as she sat on my table, instead of the chair like a normal person. "I got a few tattoos, robbed a few banks, got a nipples piercing, pulled some heists, got arrested and sentenced, escaped from prison, died my hair green, robbed a jewelry store, stole some diamonds but I'm still not as rich as you. I still don't got the shit that you do. Life works in twisted ways, right?"My eyes widened in disbelief as Laura casually recounted her wild exploits as if it was so
A Trillionaire in University 40. Why and what ifs...
Chapter forty: Why and what ifs...There are certain random thoughts that occupy my mind for no apparent reason. Like, seriously, why is the sky blue? Did someone spill a giant bottle of blue paint up there, and now it's just stuck like that? Or maybe it's just Mother Nature's way of saying, "Hey, I like blue, let's make the sky match my favorite color!" And what if the sky decided to change colors one day? Would we all freak out and think the world was ending?The same way, my mind sometimes veers towards darker thoughts. Like why did my sister, Laura, pack her bags and leave us in the dust just for a silly little boyfriend? Was he really worth abandoning her family for? Would she ever come back? Was she even alive or dead? How was she doing?The last time I heard from her was when she sent me a postcard from Greece. People said that she had turned to the life of crime but I refused to believe. She was my sister, my own blood after all. But I saw her face on the FBI's most wanted per

Chapter thirty nine: Wedding day: will she or won't she?On the morning of the wedding, I was already bustling about my room, surrounded by a whirlwind of activity. My hired bridesmaids were buzzing around me, making final adjustments to my dress and ensuring every detail was perfect for the big day.Just as I was about to take a moment to myself, there was a knock on the door. Startled, I turned to see David standing in the doorway, looking both nervous and determined."David? What are you doing here?" I asked, my heart racing with a mix of surprise and apprehension."I need to talk to you, Jessie," said David, his voice urgent."Come in," I said finally, stepping aside to let him enter.I glanced around at the bridesmaids, silently indicating that I needed a moment alone with David. They nodded understandingly and left the room, closing the door behind them.Alone now, I faced him with my emotions guarded. "This isn't really the best time, David. I'm getting married today.""I know,
