Emily, Mr. Billionaire. Chapter 47
Just as planned, August got off work early and drove straight to the Emily’s school. But he’s plan wasn’t to see Tyler. It was to see Emily. Already fairly familiar with the college premises, he drove straight to her faculty and parked his car at his now regular parking spot. Without hesitation, he got out and began walking in the direction he hoped to see her, fervently hoping Tyler would be giving lurking around her a break and let them meet in private. Luck however seemed to be on his side as after a couple of minutes of walking, he spotted Emily. Alone too. He wasn’t ready to face Tyler. Not after what happened the previous night with him still unsure of how to reply him or how to make things at least a tad bit better between them. Unwilling to push his luck, he immediately rushed towards her and stood right in front of her, blocking her before she could walk any further. Surprised by the unexpected guest, Emily blinked and looked around her, expecting Giovanni to also be pr

On normal occasions, class free days were Emily’s opportunity to sleep in and spend the whole day to herself, recharging and preparing for her next class. But that day was different and it was all because it was a day to Giovanni’s birthday. She got up earlier than usual and got herself freshened up. Took her bath, stepped out of her room to have breakfast made by her mum and by the time she was done and home alone, she returned to her room to pull out the 100 things about himself list Giovanni had given her weeks ago. Never had she imagined the day she’d be voluntarily going through that list again would come but there she was, flipping through the pages out of hopes for any answer of some sort. Answers relating to the whole mystery around his birthday and what she could get him for a birthday gift since she had concluded she was celebrating it. He had literally everything and that wasn’t an exaggeration. At least, literally everything money could buy so what cheap gift coming f

“Who are you texting?” Emily tilted her head to glance at Tyler, immediately noticing the suspicious look he was giving her. She couldn’t blame him though. She was smiling to herself. And actually, she had been smiling like that since past midnight. After concluding he was going to come over to pick her up from school later in the day, she and Giovanni said their good nights and both went to bed, a smile on Emily’s face as she went to bed. She was happy and pleased with herself and indeed had a number of reasons to be- though he tried not to show it, she could tell Giovanni was a bit happy. He didn’t nag for calling and instead, thanked her. His voice was also calm and soothing and for the first time in forever, he ended the call saying “Good night, Emily.” The excitement in her and stretched up to the morning as she got up from her bed with a half smile on her face. Giddy, she freshened up and headed to school and even throughout their extremely boring morning lectures, she coul

The ride to Emily’s majorly consisted of Emily singing loudly and off key more than half the entire time and Giovanni on the other hand, left with no choice but to sacrifice his eardrums for the day. She shuffled from playlists to playlists, enjoying herself more than she probably should have. To be fair, Giovanni couldn’t deny he was also entertained as he drove slowly on purpose so he could catch enough glances of her enjoying herself. She was bubbling with excitement and it was almost like it was her birthday and not his. He couldn’t complain anyways as her laughter and excitement were contagious, slowly finding their way to creep towards him. More often than not, he found himself smiling and at her every attempt to catch him smiling, he straightened his expression. She must have caught on though as every time that happened, her smile grew wider, followed by her singing even louder. It lasted a good while and after the Giovanni’s most chaotic drive, he pulled over in front of
Emily, Mr. Billionaire. Chapter 51
All it took was a split second for Emily and Giovanni to realize they were kissing, indirectly. Eyes widened, body froze and before the seconds could turn into minutes, they simultaneously pulled away from each other, both quickly returning to their seats. The car suddenly felt hot, followed by an unexpected palpable tension between them. They couldn’t even bring themselves to look at each other, Emily immediately toying with her fingers while Giovanni stared at his gift over and over again. “Um,” Emily finally spoke up after a while of the most awkward silence. “That was accidental. I mean, of course it was an accident. My bad!” She let out a nervous laughter and to make things worse, Giovanni didn’t join her on the laughter. Immediately feeling flushed, she sat up and reached for the door. “I should go back in now,” she said. “It’s getting late so um- yeah. Happy birthday once again and you can eat the cake or do anything you want with it. Um, bye then. Good night!” Not waiti

“Sure. I’d love to.” On hearing Emily’s acceptance to go abroad with him for the weekend, Giovanni got into his car and drove straight home. The ride home was silent though oddly enough, he found himself tempted to play music in the car. It was late already but once again, he was doing things he never saw himself doing in a million years to come. Celebrating his birthday, having a cake and gift in his car, accidentally kissing someone, driving so late at night- the list was endless. And with Emily present, it just seemed like that list was only going to get longer. After refusing to give in to the temptation to play music, he finally got home and immediately reached for the barely eaten cake in the seat next to him. With a sigh, he reached for the bag containing his little gift and stepped out of the car, walking towards the front door. With gaze fixed on the door, he had only taken a couple steps when he abruptly stopped, catching a familiar figure in sight ahead of him. He was
Emily, Mr. Billionaire. Chapter 53
Emily woke up the following morning to the sound of her phone ringing. Loudly. She rubbed her eyes sleepily as she reached for her phone that seemed to have no intention on going silent, the only thing on her mind being how to turn the phone off. With the phone finally in her hands, she opened her eyes slightly and just as she was about to turn it off, her eyes caught the sight of Giovanni’s caller ID. “Giovanni?” Her eyes immediately widened followed by her quickly sitting up. “Why is he calling so early?” Her eyes travelled to the time, the wall clock reading a couple minutes past seven. It was still early. Way too early for anything that wasn’t- “Shit, it’s today!” She jumped off her bed, remembering she was supposed to leave the country with Giovanni that morning. Though he didn’t give much details on it the previous night, she should have known better than to oversleep especially when her things weren’t packed yet. “Crap, should I pick up his call?” She had five missed call

The flight to Canada lasted a couple of hours and finally, Emily and Giovanni were at the city of Ottawa. Luckily, they still had about an hour to spare before Giovanni’s meeting. Enough time for them to get to their hotel and get settled in. “So let me guess,” Emily spoke up as they drove to the hotel Giovanni ordered the chauffeur to take them to. “Do you already have your room booked? Let’s say, five start hotel, premium suit and you already have everything you could need prepared in anticipation of your grand arrival?” “No, Miss Stark,” Giovanni shook his head. “Why?!” “Because this trip is an impromptu one,” he faced her as he replied. “I only made plans to come here yesterday so I wasn’t able to book my room in advance.” “Oh, interesting,” she was having fun teasing him. “Must be a first time for you. Since you’re so prim and proper and-“ “Sir, we’ve arrived.” “Shh,” he hushed her as the chauffeur pulled over in front of the hotel. “You talked all the way so how about yo

Several months later… “And that’s a wrap for today.” August raised his head over his macbook to take a glance at Giovanni, genuinely amused as those words escaped his lips. Months ago, he was the boss that didn’t care about things like a stated closing hour. He worked till whenever he pleased and only left the office when it was beginning to feel too late to be in the office. But now, he was a completely different person- he never spent a minute past 4pm working. “Alright sir.” “Yes, sir.” “Thank you for today, sir.” The sounds of papers shuffling filled the air, followed by the scraping of chairs as staffs rose to their feet, hitting the floor with their heels as they rushed out of the meeting room. In no time, the room was left empty to no one but August and Giovanni, preparing to do the same. Except Giovanni was more nervous than August could ever be. “You leaving work by exactly 4pm would never cease to amaze me,” August had to comment. “I guess love really does change
Emily, Mr. Billionaire. Chapter 99
“Are you sure you want to do this?” Giovanni watched August loosen his tie as he nodded, seeming convinced on the decision he was about to take. After what seemed like an eternity, they were both done with work for the day and naturally, were supposed to head home. But August had decided he wanted to visit a bar and of course, drag Giovanni with him. A sigh escaped Giovanni’s lips as he watched his best friend finally free himself from the clutches of his tie, dancing a little as he shoved the little piece of clothing down his pocket. Though he wasn’t sure what exactly he was expecting when he called Tyler several hours, he was sure that wasn’t it. “Yes,” August nodded, flinging his arm across Giovanni’s shoulders, earning a shudder from him. “I’m just going to drink a little then head home.” “A little?” it was hard to believe he wasn’t drunk already the way his words drawled. “August, you intended to drink just a little yesterday?” “That was yesterday,” he waved his fingers in
Emily, Mr. Billionaire. Chapter 98
August woke up with a headache, serving as a dreadful reminder of how the previous night went. Dozens of bottles of wine, hundreds of honesty laced words. And of all the audience to have accompanying his foolishness, it just had to be Giovanni. “Fuck,” he groaned, reaching for his phone. He could remember Giovanni driving him home after he drank himself to stupor but that was all. He couldn’t remember anything else- like how he had gotten into his bed or how he had gotten his phone next to him. “Shit, what’s the time?” He swiped his phone unlock to check the time but literally immediately, his eyes caught something else. It was his call log. And sitting prettily at the top was a missed call from Tyler. It was more than enough to cure his hangover, his eyes immediately widening. A missed call from Tyler? How did that happen? When did that happen? Why did that happen? For the hundredth time, he let out a groan, realizing he still had no memory of what happened the previous night
Emily, Mr. Billionaire. Chapter 97
“You think you have a crush on August?” Tyler took in a deep breath, sitting up as the words finally escaped from the clutches of his throat. After weeks and weeks of denial, he had finally decided to come clean to himself. And finally, his best friend too. “Yes,” he nodded, his heart racing in his chest. “I think I have a crush on him.” Emily’s expression was unreadable for a while, wavering between shock and confusion. She always knew there was something fishy going on between him and August. She knew there was more to their relationship than he was admitting but couldn’t frankly figure out Tyler having a crush on him. “Are you surprised?” Tyler swallowed as he asked. “Disappointed? Dis-” “No, no,” Emily quickly interrupted him. “It’s nothing like that. Shocked? Yes, I am, a little. But disappointed? I’m not ‘dis’ anything.” “Oh,” he broke into an awkward chuckle, his chest feeling a lot lighter. “Well, yeah. I know you’re probably wondering how it all happened but I guess,
Emily, Mr. Billionaire. Chapter 96
Emily feet remained glued to the ground, shock flooding her veins. Not just shock though- she had a couple of other emotions running through her. Anger, deceit, betrayal- to a name a few. Her sister was fine? Stacy was fine all along? She was just hiding from her and making a total fool out of her with the consent of both her parents? All along, her disappearance was just an act put in place by her and her parents because she didn’t want to get married to Giovanni? She didn’t want to believe her ears but with every second that passed, the brutal truth was slapped onto her face all over again. It was slowly making sense and finally, the anger in her grew and overpowered every other emotion she felt. Without hesitating for even a second, she balled her fist and immediately pushed the door to her parents’ room open, revealing herself to them. “Alright dear. We’ll call you some other time to- Oh my God, Emily.” Her face grew cold as she stared at them, watching her mum immediately

Their ride to Giovanni’s had only lasted a couple of minutes when his phone vibrated by his side, signifying a text message. Busy with driving, he immediately asked Emily to check what it was on his behalf, the duo immediately realizing August needed Giovanni’s presence for something urgent. Needless to guess, something work related. “I could cancel,” Giovanni suggested, noticing the disappointed look on Emily’s face. “Tell him I’m busy or something. I don’t have to-” “No,” she shook her head, refusing his offer. “You don’t have to.” “But-” “It’s probably important,” she flashed him a weak smile. “And come on, you’ve been away from work for a while so it’s probably really urgent. You should go. I’ll be fine.” “Alright then,” he nodded in return. “But I’ll drive you home first. Do not even try to object to that. I’m driving you home.” Already disappointed at their time together getting cut short abruptly, Emily had no intention of wasting the few moments they could spend togethe

Giovanni: I'm outside.A text from Giovanni had never given Emily that much joy. And without wasting a single second, she grabbed her bag and dashed out of the classroom, heading to the parking lot to meet the man responsible for her bundle of joy.Her temporary goodbye to Tyler was quick. And thanks to her all sense of reasoning being overshadowed by her happiness, she couldn't notice how absentminded Tyler was as he mumbled out a reply.But that didn't matter. Not at the moment.In a flash, she found herself at the parking lot, her head shot up as her eyes roamed around excitedly. In barely a minute of searching, she found him waving at her and eagerly rushed towards him."Hi.""Hi."Awkwardness threatened to settle between them, Emily quickly fighting back by breaking into a light chuckle. Followed by a blush creeping towards her cheeks as he remembered everything that transpired between them twenty-four hours ago."Hev.""So how was your test?" Giovanni asked. "Did it go well?""
Emily, Mr. Billionaire. Chapter 93
With head hung low, Tyler managed to drag himself back to class. Darn that test he needed to write. Scrap his grade that needed to be saved- all he just wanted to do was head back home and get busy with anything that was going to prevent him from thinking. But he had no choice, hence had to be in class whether he wanted to or not. “Tyler!” The second he stepped into class again, he heard Emily call out his name. “Here.” He looked around him and realizing the professor was still yet to arrive, he walked towards her with a sluggish nod and returned to his previous seat. “Who did you head out to meet?” She asked immediately without wasting a single second. “Who was it? What was so urgent?” “Nothing,” he looked away. “It was nothing.” “You went to meet someone,” she insisted. “Who was it?” “I didn’t meet anyone.” “Was it a girl? Ah, is it a girl? Is there a girl you’re hitting on?” “No, it’s wasn’t a girl!” “I thought you said you didn’t meet anyone,” a full smirk appeared on
Emily, Mr. Billionaire. Chapter 92
Tyler got on his toes and as quietly as he could, he picked up his clothes from floor and threw them on. August was still asleep and he couldn’t be more glad for that. It was the perfect opportunity for him to sneak out of the house without waking him up and in the process, starting unnecessary drama. Just like he did the previous night, he had a lot of emotions running through his veins. Confusion, nervousness, anxiety- the list could go on. But at least, one thing he was glad he wasn’t feeling was regret. Regret for sleeping with August. He spared his sleepy self a quick glanced and sighed, immediately getting the last bits of his things. All ready to leave, he walked out of the room and in no time, was successfully out of the house. “Crap.” He had classes in the morning and a test in the afternoon. He didn’t feel particularly great about himself though, making him contemplate ditching both of them. But he immediately remembered he couldn’t. It was a major test and unless he wa
