Billionaire's Heart CHAPTER 26 - She is so beautiful
Liam has always been the workaholic type. He doesn't like not doing anything productive. This was the first time, however, that he wouldn't work while he was on a plane.He didn't hate talking to Ashley instead of working, though. He surprisingly enjoyed it more. Liam couldn't help but notice the way she looks while she smiles.The way her lips curl up and her eyes squeeze in a cute way. She is also not the quiet-laughing type. She laughs out loud instead. Not in a disgusting way, of course, but in a way that pulls his heartstrings.As they continued their conversation, Liam found himself captivated by Ashley's infectious laughter and vibrant personality. He realized that he had never met someone who could make him forget about work so effortlessly.There is a part of him that is still telling him to be guarded against her, but deep down, he doesn't want to. He knows that he has to be careful, though."Ladies and gentlemen, please fasten your seat belt as we are about to land." He hea
Billionaire's Heart CHAPTER 27 - Nice to meet you
Liam couldn't help but smile as he watched Ashley interact with his family. His mom took to her almost immediately, which was surprising, and then took it upon herself to introduce her to the rest of the family.Well, the ones that are around at the moment are mom and one of my aunts, Rachel."She looks like a nice girl," Liam's father said as he stood beside Liam."Yes, dad, she is," Liam said, staring at her.Liam probably could not tell, but he was staring at her so intently that his father had concluded that Liam really liked Ashley.Liam's parents were kind of worried because of who her father was because Liam had told them about the encounter he had with Ashley's father when he was just starting out his company, but then seeing the way he and Ashley looked at each other when they didn't know anyone was looking reassured him."If I am being honest, I was worried that she was going to be like her father, but it looks like I have nothing to worry about," Liam's dad said."You don't
Billionaire's Heart CHAPTER 28 - His toned chest
"Liam!!! Christina screamed as she badged into the room and launched herself at Liam."Hello, little Tina, How have you been?" Liam asked his little girl, looking at her with warm eyes. You could easily tell that he adores her."I've been good, and guess what? I joined the cheer team. The girls on the team are gross and only try to be my friends, so they could get close to Cole though."She said she was frustrated."Anyways, I hope you brought me something.""Come on, Tina, let's not be rude and greet the guest." Dilly headlights. walking towards Ashley, who looked like a deer caught in headlights."Hello Ashley, it's been how many years?" Dilly asked with a warm smile on her face."Hello Dilly, I have been good. What about you?" Ashley responded."Oh, come on, what's with the boring conversation?" Tina said with a smirk on her face and then turned towards Ashley."Hello, I am the best Abbot sibling, and it's nice meeting you." She exclaimed, pulling Ashley into a hug that was almost im
Billionaire's Heart CHAPTER 29 - He looks so hot
Ashley couldn't stop thinking about Liam throughout her shower. She has never felt like this before, so the whole thing was strange to her. She has been fully dressed in the bathroom for at least 5 minutes, but she doesn't want to open the bathroom door because then she would have to face him again, and that is not good because she has not been able to get the image of his naked chest out of her head. "Oh my goodness, I wish I would just disappear, she mumbled to herself as she thought of the smug look that Liam gave her when he realized that she was checking him out. "Come, Ashley, you can do this; you have gone through worse, and you didn't die from embarrassment," Ashley encouraged herself before walking out of the bathroom to see Liam fully clothed. "Oh, you are done. I thought you were hiding there for a second," Liam said with a smirk on his face, as if to say, "I knew you were hiding yourself from me." "Shut up," Ashley said with an embarrassed smile on her face. "Well, le
Billionaire's Heart CHAPTER 30 - Don't cross the line
Liam grew up getting attention from people for different reasons. Well, mostly good reasons, because there were times he got in trouble and got attention for doing something bad. He is not dumb; he knows how girls react to him. It is not pride; this was just how it has always been for him. Girls wanted to date him, and boys wanted to be like him. It gets annoying, though, because almost every girl he has met wants something from him. As much as he likes his ego rubbed, he doesn’t particularly like girls walking up to him and telling him they will climb him like a tree. Almost every girl he had been with had a motive, either for money, fame, or sex. He always wonders if they thought that was all he could offer. Ashley was the only person who was not like that with him. Apart from the fact that she could be the one behind the scandal, of course, Liam has decided to stop thinking about the scandal, how it came to be, and holding it over Ashley’s head. There was no proof she did it, a
Billionaire's Heart CHAPTER 31 - Pillow Fight
Ashley woke up the next morning cuddling a very warm pillow, and she couldn’t help but move to cuddle up to it more.“So warm.” She thought to herself with a smile on her face.She could hear her phone ring, but she didn’t want to wake up to take the call. She was enjoying her sleep and was not about to let it end.“Uhmm, can I stand up? I am kind of pressed.” The pillow said this to her, chuckling.“No, do your job and let me sleep.” Ashley mumbled back to the pillow before cuddling it more.“Wait, why is my pillow talking?” Ashley mumbled to herself, and the pillow chuckled again.Ashley opened her eyes and saw Liam’s gray eyes staring back at her. She could tell he was amused by the whole situation.“Why are you on my side of the bed, you pervert? I divided the bed, but you removed the pillows and came to my side.” Ashley said, looking at him furiously.“Oh, I didn’t do that; you did.” Liam smirked, which only irritated Ashley further.“What did you mean I did?” Ashley said before
Billionaire's Heart CHAPTER 32 - Don't touch my food
Ashley was the first to finish getting ready, so she decided to go ahead and go downstairs for breakfast instead of waiting for Liam. The two of them had decided not to talk about the cuddling situation immediately after Reg left. Ashley was still embarrassed about the whole thing, of course, but she decided that she was just going to pretend it didn’t happen. It was not like she committed a crime anyway. “Good morning,” Tina said well when she saw Ashley walk down the stairs towards the kitchen. Good morning, Tina,” Ashley said in response with a smile on her face. She knew it was too early to decide, and she probably shouldn't, but Tina was her favorite person in the family, and she loved how carefree and happy she looked every time. “How was your night?” Tina asked, wriggling her eyebrows. “It was just fine. I was so tired that I didn’t wake up till this morning.” “That is understandable.” Tina responded before she heard her phone pinged, and she picked it up to check what it
Billionaire's Heart CHAPTER 33 - Shopping
Ashley was exasperated, and she can't even hide it anymore. She has been going from store to store for the past few hours, and she could barely feel her legs."I thought you liked shopping with how excited you were at home. Look at you now, all out of breath after only a few hours. I guess I can't help it then; let's go find someplace to eat lunch, and we can then go home." Reg said with a smile on her face, and Ashley couldn't help but sign in relief.Ashley had always wondered what it felt like to go out shopping with someone or friends, but now that she has experienced it, she doesn't want to anymore. It was fun for the first hour, but she couldn't keep up after that as Reg made her try different clothes.Ashley was mortified when Reg took her to a lingerie section. Like, what mother takes her son's girlfriend to a lingerie store? Reg wouldn't stop praising her looks as they went from store to store.Ashley had never been complimented that much before so she couldn't even keep the f

Billionaire's Heart CHAPTER 38 - His cheating ex
CHAPTER 38Liam has picked up his phone more than 100 times to call or text Ashley, but he couldn't bring himself to follow through.

She heard a voice call to her with an unsure voice, and she look

Why are you wasting my time? Stop playing family with his family and get him to marry you. You don't want your father's business to suffer, right?
