Billionaire's game #1: The Millionaire's Matchmaking Chapter 20
[Read at your own risk] I've been smiling since earlier while I was chatting with Alex. I have a lot of questions for him, especially about his friends. I also catch him glancing at me from time to time, so to avoid feeling uncomfortable, I look for topics to talk about or ask him questions that he willingly answers. I had asked about the other three guys we were with, as they weren't in Hawaii, and Alex explained that they were Kuya Silver's friends. They all met when they were in London. Among the seven of them, Meir was the most pitiable because he got slapped by girls several times. Sylvie was mad at him because Meir and his brother, Oliver, were both known womanizers. Xavion, despite being a prankster, didn't pursue many girls. He was a bit picky and preferred being the one pursued rather than pursuing someone. He was quite popular with the ladies due to his good looks. The Japanese guy, Dalchi, already had a fiancee. Their marriage was arranged when they were young because Da

"WHAT?! Why didn't you tell me sooner? Shit, that was so embarrassing!" Shena shouted angrily while we were inside the cafeteria. A few people turned to look in our direction because of her loud outburst. Her voice was shrill, and it could startle you like a pig being slaughtered. She called me early in the morning, but Alex answered because he woke up early for a work meeting, and he came home around noon, which surprised me. I woke up thinking someone had hugged me, and I almost punched him. When I realized I was in an unfamiliar room, I remembered I had stayed in his penthouse. What's even more embarrassing was that I had no underwear on! Out of embarrassment, I kicked him since he was touching my thighs while I had my back turned to him. He was wearing loose pants, and I almost hit something. I still remember the look of shock on his face when I did that. Who would go hysterical in that situation? I had no underwear, and there was a bump in his pants. He might have misunderstood

As I reached the gate, my phone rang with an unknown number, but I decided to answer it. "Hello? Who's this?" "I'm outside. Where are you?" I furrowed my brow and looked at the number again, but it was still unfamiliar. I held the phone back to my ear. "Who are you?" "What do you mean, who am I? I told you I'd pick you up because mom sent me." Mom? A pickup? As far as I know, I didn't receive any messages on my phone. "Sorry, I think you've got the wrong person. I'm not the one you're looking for." "What do you mean, wrong person, Isabella? I texted you this morning." I quickly checked my messages, and indeed, there was a text that had come through, buried under other messages from different SIM cards I had used. They were reminders to reload because they missed me. It seemed like they remembered me better than others. After reading the message, I realized it was Kuya Silver who had texted me. He was coming to pick me up because they were looking for me at their place. I used to

The enticing aroma of various dishes filled the air, intensifying my hunger. Colorful banners displayed images of delicious meals, tempting us to choose. I was about to take money from my wallet when he suddenly handed the vendor some cash. "I got it... You just eat whatever you like," he said. I want to protest, but I know I'd still lose. Kalel can be quite stubborn at times. I even lost to him in our past arguments. We took a seat at a small table. He excused himself to buy some soft drinks, leaving me alone, and I began to eat. Kalel placed the soft drinks beside me before sitting across from me. We sat in silence, eating, while watching the people around us. Once we finished eating, we both stood up. We started walking while observing the happenings around us. I didn't plan to enjoy myself right now; I wanted to ask him many things, but I knew Kalel was just looking for the right moment to speak. "Why did you do that?" That's the first question I wanted Kalel to answer today

I hurriedly walked out of the amusement park, still clutching the flower Kalel had given me earlier. I thought it was a waste not to appreciate his gesture. "Slow down, Isabella!" I heard Alex shout as I reached the street and hailed a taxi. A taxi quickly pulled up, so I opened the door. However, I wasn't able to get in because Alex had already grabbed me. I tried to push him away, but he wouldn't budge. I didn't want to talk to him right now. I needed to calm down because I had been seething ever since he did that earlier. He didn't say anything to Kalel, but I was angry because he kept pulling me. I wanted to talk to Kalel, and he was all alone there. "Let go of me, Alex," I said firmly, looking into his eyes. Annoyed, he bit his lower lip and pulled me again, causing me to step away from the taxi. He closed the taxi's door himself before facing me. I thought he was going to say something, but he quickly lifted me and hoisted me onto his shoulder, shocking me. "Alex! Put me dow

The morning sun greeted me with its warmth as I opened the curtains on the balcony. I had just come out of the bathroom after washing my face, and I had been smiling since earlier. Who wouldn't? There were so many roses in the room when I woke up, not just one color, but various shades. Alex had also left a letter in there, and I couldn't help but roll around on my bed. Even though we had a little argument last night because he didn't want us to sleep in separate rooms and preferred that I stay in his room, which I didn't agree with. I wanted to avoid any potential distractions this early. A message interrupted my thoughts, so I approached the bedside table and checked my phone. 'Good morning! Do you like the flowers?' I smiled and started typing a reply to him, but my smile faded when I read his next message. 'Is it prettier than the flowers you received yesterday?' I was about to feel thrilled, but he had to remind me of yesterday. Alex has a knack for ruining the mood. 'I mis

"Is something wrong? You seem lost in thought," Alex's voice brought me back to the present. We were in his office, and I was seated on his visitor's couch. I looked around for the food I had brought earlier, but it was nowhere to be seen in his office. A bodyguard had brought it in earlier, and I wondered where it had gone. "Alex, where's the white bag I brought?" I continued searching with my eyes, but I couldn't find it. Did I forget it or did they take it? "That? I reheated it," he replied. "Why did you take it from me?" "I brought it here. Didn't you notice? You've been lost in thought since we arrived. What's on your mind?" He moved closer to me, and his hand rested on my waist. I pulled away from his touch. My eyes had been searching for the food, but now I focused on him. "Alex, why did you introduce me as your girlfriend to them?" "What do you mean?" He looked somewhat innocent. "Why did you make it seem like we're in a relationship? Don't tell me you're trying to make

It was already 11 o'clock when we decided to go to sleep. I was told to sleep in the guest room by their mom, but when I got there, there was a man already lying on the bed, and it was obvious that it was Alex. He was hugging a large pillow and lying in the opposite direction. I found enough space on the bed to accommodate us, but I didn't have a plan for that. I searched for a blanket or anything to lie on, and luckily, I found one, so I spread it on the floor. I also took two pillows from the bed. Suddenly, I screamed when Alex pulled me and wrapped his arms around me while lying on top of me. He looked at me intently, making my heart race. 'What are you doing?' I asked, feeling nervous. Locking you up," he replied, his mischievous smile heightened the rapid beating of my heart. "Why do you need to lock me up? You could simply tell me if you have something to say,"I wanted to avoid him, but there was something about the way Alex looked at me that made it impossible for me to move

ALEXANDER MONTGOMERY I hurriedly exited the car upon hearing Dachiel's information. We went to the location where my child was allegedly taken. To my surprise, it wasn't what I expected. There were police surrounding the area, and it seemed we were late. Someone misled us, pointing to the wrong location, causing a delay. A call redirected my attention to the correct place. It appeared we were intentionally set up to create confusion. I felt desperate and fell into the trap. I quickly approached a police officer and asked what happened. They said that the location was indeed the site of a kidnapping case, but it was too late because the house had exploded. I asked them if they saw a three-year-old boy, but they said they found no one there and the bodies they found were mostly around 25 years old-- probably the kidnapper's henchmen who were caught in the explosion. I was disheartened by what I heard, but a call woke me up again and I found out that a child was rushed to a nearby hos

This is the last chapter of the book, and the next one will be the epilogue. I woke up to a knock on the bedroom door and realized I hadn't set my alarm. It's already ten o'clock! I rushed to the bathroom, but the knocking persisted, so I shouted, "I'm not done! I'll be ready in a few minutes!" After a quick shower, there was another knock, prompting me to yell again. Wrapped in a bathrobe, I opened the door, only to find Alexander there in a tight shirt and shorts. "Alex, why aren't you dressed yet?" I asked, eyeing his outfit. "I asked Architect Daiton to go ahead. We can follow later," he replied, looking down before locking eyes with me. "What do you want for breakfast? I'll cook." Opting for bacon, I told him I'd be down in a moment. I quickly changed into shorts and a spaghetti top, leaving my hair untied. As I descended, the aroma of food filled the air, making my stomach growl. Entering the kitchen, I was greeted by a sight—Alexander in a black apron, half-naked, sh

The bar exam takes place at one of the prestigious universities in the Philippines, and I just found out that the university is owned by Vuntier's parents. Vuntier, who is Alexander's business partner and a long-time friend. Despite having a board meeting, Alexander insisted on driving me to the university. His phone kept ringing during our journey. "You shouldn't have bothered to drive me. You have a board meeting today, and you're not even attending." "I can postpone the meeting. You're more important, and as the CEO, I can do that." I observed a change in him, being more open with me about small things. While we're not officially in a relationship, his actions often resemble that of a boyfriend. Architect Daiton, a friend, sent me a good luck message. Alexander noticed and seemed annoyed. "Good luck to him too," he muttered. Glancing at my phone again, he frowned. "Architect Daiton, huh? Is he the reason you've been smiling lately?" "He's just a friend, Alexander. Relax." He

"You like baked cookies?" I lazily glanced at Alexander, who was pacing in front of me with an eagerness that matched his words. He's cooking in my kitchen. Yes, inside my condo. I couldn't bring myself to kick him out because the more stubborn I am, the more stubborn he becomes. "Okay." His face lit up with a satisfied smile, and he headed towards the ingredients, already planning his culinary adventure. "Soup?" "Okay." I replied with a half-hearted nod, my eyes not leaving the random patterns on the floor. "What about lasagna?" "Okay." I mumbled, still lost in thought. "Your mom was right, you eat a lot when you're having a fever. That's unique." A teasing smile played on his lips as he observed my peculiar behavior. He approached me, a subtle charm in his every step, and gently placed the back of his hand on my forehead. "You're still hot, why don't you rest in your room? You've been here in the kitchen for a while." I just looked down, staring into space. "I want to eat.

"I'm too lazy to stir my spoon in my coffee while looking at my laptop. I've been working for months now, and I can say I spend more time reviewing submissions from the Planning department than preparing for the upcoming bar exam. A knock halted my activity, and moments later, my secretary entered. Different from Dad's secretary who worked in the adjacent building, I handled his businesses related to hotels and resorts nationwide. The latest project involved constructing a five-star hotel in Singapore, and this was my first time overseeing such a venture. It necessitated guidance from an expert in hotel design. ‘Good afternoon, ma'am. Mr. Montgomery has arrived.” Secretary Beischiel stepped aside, and in came Alexander with a man, presumably the skilled architect he mentioned, for our Singapore project. “Good afternoon, Ms. Dasmond,” the architect politely greeted, extending his hand. “He’s Architect Daiton, he will be with us, helping with the overall design of the hotel.” I stood

"ISABELLA Heyes, Magna cum laude!" I stood proudly, hearing the applause of everyone. As I walked across the stage, I noticed some students awkwardly glancing at me. For almost a year, I've been trying to find my purpose, attempting to move on from the past, but some things are just too difficult to let go. After receiving my diploma, I gave a speech to my batchmates. The cameras captured my every move, and I knew this would make headlines again. Most of my activities were already in the news, so I preferred staying at home or in my condo to enjoy solitude. Despite not being the valedictorian, they still asked me to give a speech. I didn't mind, considering the valedictorian also spoke. "Oh, why does our Disney princess look sad?" I shot a look at Dad for his remarks, but later, I smiled and hugged him along with Mommy Emely, Dad's new wife who just arrived from Europe. "Congratulations, my daughter! We're very proud of you!" They embraced me warmly, and I couldn't help but notic

I calmly got out of the car, carrying various types of flowers. The breeze greeted me before I gazed at the place where I wanted to go. It's been years and this is the first time I have visited him. I didn't know where he was buried because I didn't know anything about him, except for his first name. I calmed myself before placing the basket full of flowers in front of it and looked at the familiar photo in front. Tears welled up in my eyes when I saw his face, smiling. "How are you? Are you happy wherever you are now?" Suddenly, the wind blew around me as if it was hugging me. "I miss you.. I hope you watch over us from there." I wiped the tears and stepped back. I have to hurry because an important person is coming here today. I hid myself, it's only right to see who will approach the grave. The surroundings were getting dark, so it was dark where I was positioned now. I used the veil to cover my face and waited for the exact time. At 6:30, I could hear footsteps slowly approac

He quickly unhooked my bra, thanks to its thin fabric. He placed his palm on my left breast and started massaging it. He played with my nipple using his thumb while our kisses continued uninterrupted until we ran out of breath, and that's when he pulled away. "Do you want here? Or in the shower?" he mischievously answered. "I go anywhere. I can even go to the balcony to see those below," he raised his eyebrows. I slapped him. "Just kidding, I don't want us to get caught because we're live here." "Then—" I screamed as he lifted me and headed straight to the shower room. With no clothes on, my chest was against his face as he continued to lift me. When he finally put me inside the shower room, he quickly kissed me, pressing my back against the wall. He aggressively kissed me down to my neck while my hand reached for the shower, wetting our entire bodies. He's busy playing with my breasts while I'm gripping his hair, and I pulled it because he was entering his two fingers into my wom

I took off my bathrobe and stepped into the water, enjoying the warmth of the Jacuzzi in the late evening. Even though Alex and I didn't talk much earlier, he bid farewell as he needed to meet Lavinia. Despite wanting to stop him, I couldn't interfere as Alex mentioned Lavinia's desire to speak with me personally. After learning about Alex's departure, I had plans to call Dad. Despite the time difference with Switzerland, I timed it carefully to catch him during his extra hours. He was on a business trip to Korea, and I needed to express my frustration. "Dad." "How's Switzerland?" "I hate you, Dad." My words hung in the air, and he fell silent. "Why did you do that? You should have told me." "I'm sorry, anak. That's the only way for you to be safe, especially when I heard that your guard died." "You mean the guard who was just watching over me?" "Yes. To prevent Alexander's father from intervening, I had to inform Xander about your situation. I also learned that Xander was close
