Captivating The Brutish Billionaire Chapter Twenty Nine
~Gunther~I kept looking at Agathe to see if she was still mad at me. But to my dismay, she wouldn't spare me even a single glance. She and Carlyle were both seated on my right side, appearing as though they were having their own, little world without me. I am a bit jealous, honestly. Breakfast was brought out in a matter of seconds after that. Looking delighted, Carlyle shrieked and clapped her hands. "Yay! Strawberry French toast with cream! My favorite! I haven't eaten this for forever, Daddy!""Has mom restrained you from having this, baby?" I asked, brows raised. "Yes, Daddy. There's a lot of food Granny Flo wouldn't let me eat back at the mansion." She pouted. "She's that cruel sometimes." "Well, starting today, you can have this for breakfast every time you eat with me." "Yehey!" Agathe smiled at my daughter's reaction."This is also your favorite, sweetheart? Wow. What a sweet coincidence." Carlyle nodded, giggling. "Yes, Mommy. Daddy and I love to eat this for breakfa

~Agathe~In the plush backseat of his car, Gunther was seated directly next to me. I didn't give a damn if he could feel me staring at him incessantly from head to toe. Once more, seeing him dressed in a fancy three-piece suit sparked the kind of desire I am not even aware I had. How can he be so good-looking in everything he wears? He looks absolutely stunning no matter what he puts on.How on earth is that even possible? Not to mention he smells so damn good. And, watching the way his Adam's apple moves sensually every time he speaks on his earpiece is indeed breathtaking.Definitely, a wonderful sight to behold, his insane handsomeness is compelling me to lose my mind. "Stop staring at me, love. Because soon enough, it's going to become a habit of yours. Though, I would love that to happen."Gunther spoke, but he didn't glance at me; he was focused on the laptop sitting on his lap. I pretended not to hear him at all as I sat upright and rolled my eyes at him. He could have at

~Thaddeus~I was casually sauntering toward my office that morning when Bernice, my secretary, suddenly approached me with a troubled look on her face. "Sir Thad! Thank God you've finally arrived!" I stopped drinking the cupped coffee in my hand and cocked an eyebrow at Bernice. "Why? What is it? Is there something wrong?"I checked my wristwatch and saw that I had arrived just in time. "I'm not late, Berns. And as far as I can remember, we have finished doing the last-minute revisions for tomorrow's launching event." One of my primary responsibilities as the managing director of S.G.C. is to manage daily business operations and to make sure everything operates as smoothly as possible.Bernice scratched her forehead and let out a deep sigh. "I see, you didn't read my text, Sir. I texted you that there will be an emergency meeting today in the main conference room. It was President Florence who asked for it." "Emergency meeting? What for?" I asked before I suddenly recalled overhear

~Agathe~"What the hell was that all about, Agathe? Care to fucking enlighten me?" With unwavering rage in his voice, Gunther asked. He was breathing heavily, clenching his fists, and closing his eyes for a second to contain his anger. I had a hard time understanding his actions since I was confident that what I did was the best thing to do. He dragged me out of the conference room just a moment ago and ruthlessly shoved me inside a storage area.I suddenly found myself surrounded by filing cabinets and office furniture filled with a variety of papers, supplies, and copy materials. My mind was in a daze because I was still processing what happened after I had initiated a kiss with him in front of those scary people wearing sparkling suits and corporate dresses. [Flashback]When I gazed into Gunther's mesmerizing dark-amber eyes, it was like I was seeing deep inside his soul.My heart was beating so quickly and when I closed my eyes and leaned in to claim his lips, everything felt

~Gunther~"Should we become friends instead?" Out of the blue, Agathe asked as though I had not just told her how I felt. Hold on. What the fuck is she talking about? "Forgive me but I don't feel the same way about you." I blinked in confusion, my body was getting numbed by the second, unable to believe what I had just heard from her mouth.She had just told me that I could have at least tried, so why is she saying that now? I could see how badly she wanted me as well from the look in her eyes. So, why on earth is she uttering such rubbish? I have never had to deal with rejection before in my life. It was something I do to other people, not the other way around. I had turned down a ton of business deals, women who almost threw themselves at me, and those people who begged me not to kill them whenever I was bored.Agathe kept shedding tears, but I won't be fooled by that for much longer. "Are you indeed rejecting me?" "I'm sorry. I just can't-" I bit my lower lip in annoyance, cu

~Agathe~I never realized how much I had fallen for Gunther until I watched him stand close to the woman who was arranged to marry him before. My heart suddenly weighed so heavily that I could barely make myself move, much less feel anything. She was the oldest De Luca, the one Yesenia had told me about. "You cannot just walk into my office and act as though you have every right to do so, Geraldine." Gunther was clenching his jaw tightly as he spoke, his voice sounded so furious. The woman smiled seductively, and compared to me, she appeared incredibly sophisticated and elegant. All of a sudden, I feel very small and unconfident.Yesenia claimed that the woman was over forty by the time she and Gunther were about to get married four years ago. But at that moment, all I could make out was that she almost appeared to be Gunther's age. She looked absolutely fine compared to her age. "My father, as far as I can remember, is one of the biggest shareholders in this company, Percival. T

~Gunther~Agathe was about to close her eyes and lie down on the table but I laughed out of nowhere. My eyes were blazing with desire, but I had to fight the urge to taste her. I was so angry right now that I wanted to fucking punish her."Funny how even though you rejected me, you still believed I could give you the kind of pleasure that every woman in this city would give anything to have." She immediately reddened in shame, and I suddenly thought of the night I had drenched her face in a bucket of icy water.The reaction I received from her that evening was the same as her reaction right now. Smirking, I stood up and collected my things while she struggled to cover herself. "Let's go back to my office. I still have plenty of work to accomplish." I didn't wait for her reaction, I just turned around and marched straight for the door, leaving her astounded and fuming. Serves her right for breaking my heart. Before reaching for the knob, I looked back at her again and menacingly

~Agathe~I never imagined I needed to see Gunther knead pasta dough with his bare hands while only wearing his pants. Goodness gracious. His physique is beyond anything I have ever seen. Even his six-pack appeared to have been meticulously carved like a Greek deity.Even if I didn't want to, my cheeks flushed in embarrassment and something else. All of a sudden, I felt hot and out of breath. I then noticed that the pasta dough he was kneading had become overly dry. I knew because I had occasionally helped in the kitchen when I was still working at that teensy restaurant in Snowflake Village. Hence, to make it cohesive and smooth again, Gunther sprinkled some water on his fingers and continued kneading the dough. I found myself gasping as I watched him in silence. Out of nowhere, my nipples tingled when I imagined that he was kneading my breasts instead of the dough. God. I suddenly hate my mind. Why am I feeling this right now? I glanced at the sweatshirt I was wearing that I

~Agathe~[Present Time]I could hear faint voices talking around me. I looked around the darkness that surrounded me but saw no one.I felt like I was floating, but my feet remained on the ground. I felt hopeless.I want to go back to my mother because she still needs me. My father just died, and I am the only one she has left.“Her finger moved, Doctor Wright!” I heard someone say something beside me, but when I looked to my side, I saw no one.“Hello? Who are you? Where exactly am I? Where is my mother?" I asked in a loud voice, without even opening my mouth.“She's regaining consciousness. Quickly, call Gunther.”“But, Doctor. He is downstairs, discussing something important with his family. What are we supposed to do?”“Check her pulse. Check everything.” Before I could respond, I felt something powerful catapult me through the air.“Arghhhhhhhhh!”Before I knew it, I opened my eyes again to see a bright light aimed directly at my eyes. “She is awake! The patient is awake, doctor!

~Agathe~[Flashback, fifteen years ago]It has been a week since the incident happened and my mother has never been the same. She tried so many times to end her life and I will always be the one to witness it all.I haven't slept a wink since last night, and my stomach is growling for food. The food in our fridge and pantry were already gone by the third day.I had been begging my mother for food, but she would always kick me out of her room and lock herself in there for the whole day.To ease my hunger, I would curl up and hug my knees on my bed while crying myself to sleep. This is the fourth day that I can't tolerate my hunger anymore, I am beyond starving.My legs wobbled when I got out of my bed. My vision was blurry, and my head felt as if a hammer was constantly pounding on it.I feel so sick and helpless but I refuse to take this nonsense any longer. If my mother is unable to provide for me, I will have to do it myself from now on.My father did not sacrifice his life for me o

~Agathe~[Flashback, fifteen years ago]What I saw next in front of me wasn't what I expected, as everything happened so suddenly.Three strong, consecutive punches landed directly on the tall boy's face, and I was too stunned to even react."Do you think you can fool me, dumbass? How many more beatings do you need to understand? I can see right through your idiotic mind!”The tall boy collapsed to the ground, but the old man continued to assault him, kicking his stomach and his back numerous times.My mouth dropped open as I watched the horrifying scene in front of me in sheer terror. It was like I could feel every painful hit and kick from the old man in my own body.But, I couldn't understand why the tall boy never cried or shouted for help. He only kept his eyes closed and silently endured the pain.I stood there quietly, rooted to the spot where I was standing, not knowing what to do. Once the old man was satisfied, he lifted the tall boy's body from the ground and forced him to

~Agathe~[Flashback, fifteen years ago]I tried to calm my racing heart by tapping my chest a few times and taking a deep breath. I almost got caught!But, why is my heart racing so much?Perhaps, my heart was racing from the pain of witnessing the wild boars being killed by my father and his comrades.Perhaps, it was beating fast out of nervousness because some strangers had appeared, and they seemed very intimidating.“A pleasant morning. I am Clermont Silvestri, current chief executive officer of Silvestri Group of Companies.” I heard someone say in a deep, scary voice.All of a sudden, I could hear curious whispers from my father's comrades. I frowned because I don't know what a chief executive officer is all about.“We are from Stonewood City.” Gasps from my father's comrades suddenly echoed through the air once again. Stonewood City?I am not quite sure where that is. I have only known our village my entire life."I have recently bought this entire village, including all its es

~Agathe~I could hear Gunther's screams ripping through the air. He sounded so desperate and nearly begging.It was so heartbreaking to hear him like that. I wanted to open my eyes and comfort him, but I couldn't.Then, out of nowhere, I felt powerful hands gently lift my body onto something. Afterwards, I was hoisted into the air and was transported somewhere.I could hear the sirens of the ambulance nearby. I could hear everyone shouting and barking commands.But, Gunther's desperate voice stood out to me the most.I knew that I was fighting for my dear life. But, somehow, everything felt surreal that I felt like I was merely dreaming.Then, from the absolute darkness that surrounded me, I heard a faint voice. "Agathe.”It sounded so familiar and soothing, I suddenly yearned to hear it again. I looked around the darkness that surrounded me, but I saw nothing.As I wandered around, tears began to form in my eyes. “Who is that?” I asked in a loud voice, without opening my mouth."Swee

~Agathe~Being in Stonewood City for almost a week has made me realize that I can also love this kind of life, with Gunther and Carlyle.And, when I finally accepted that Gunther had managed to sneak into my heart, I never anticipated the pain of repeatedly witnessing his mother's disdain towards me.Seeing her eyes full of disgust and hatred directed towards me made me feel hurt, beyond my understanding.Deep within my heart, I longed for her acceptance of me, perhaps echoing the desire of every daughter-in-law out there.I was about to turn around and walked away from there as quietly as possible but I was taken aback to see both Peter and Calixto standing behind me.As if it wasn't enough, both of them moved and stood on my left and right side. It was as if they were silently telling everyone that they are going to protect me no matter what.And, it didn't matter to them that it was their boss's mother they might have to confront. I was even astonished by how quickly Calixto had fo

~Agathe~It was lunchtime when I noticed something peculiar. I was having lunch with Carlyle as Gunther had left for the office earlier in the morning."Belv." I called Belvedere's name, who was standing beside the dining table.I had invited them to join me and Carlyle on the table, but as usual, they strongly declined. I had already given up on persuading them, as they are deeply committed to their job."Where is Yesenia? I don't recall seeing her all morning." I remarked, even noticing Carlyle furrowing her eyebrows at me."I checked her room, Mommy. Yennie is still fast asleep." Carlyle mentioned casually and then continued to devour her food.I noticed something on the corner of her lips and gently wiped it away with my finger. "Be careful, sweetheart."Afterward, I turned to Belvedere with a worried expression in my eyes. "Is she still sleeping, Belv? In all the days I've been here, I've never known Yesenia to sleep in. Is everything alright? Could she be unwell?”"I'll have a h

~Agathe~"I was wondering what took you so long, love.” Gunther's voice was cold and threatening, sending an instant shiver down my spine.“Carlyle and I were waiting for you in the entertainment room. She had already fallen asleep while waiting. While here you are, talking with some motherfucking bastard behind my back once again.”Gunther stressed the final words, his tone clearly laced with sarcasm. I noticed Thaddeus let out a deep sigh as if he was growing weary of his cousin's drama."You mentioned it yourself, dear cousin. We were just talking. When did having a conversation with someone become a criminal offense?”I turned to Thaddeus, feeling the urge to scold him. "Goodness gracious, don't provoke him. He might end up hitting you again." I whispered, recalling the incident that occurred at his boutique.However, Thaddeus smirked at me, showing no signs of being affected in the slightest. I clenched my teeth in pure annoyance towards him.I suddenly gasped so loud as I felt G

~Agathe~I just finished eating dinner with Gunther and Carlyle when Yesenia unexpectedly tugged me to the side, catching me off guard.“What’s the matter, Yen?” I asked her, a bit annoyed at the sudden pulling.However, as I caught sight of the urgency in her eyes, any trace of annoyance I had felt instantly dissipated in the air.Yesenia motioned for me to be quiet and glanced around discreetly. She patiently waited until Gunther and Carlyle ascended the stairs, heading towards the entertainment room.We all planned to watch a movie together that night.“I need to tell you something, young lady. This won't take long, or else the young master might notice and become suspicious.” She whispered.Afterward, when nobody was looking, Yesenia discreetly guided me into the maid's quarters.I squinted my eyes, a slight throbbing sensation pulsating in my head. It felt as though I had already entered those quarters before, but I can't remember when or how.Once we entered the quarters, Yeseni
