2024-10-29 19:42:56Slowly, my head averted back at the tone the voice just addressed me through.
Say no heart.
Please say no…it wasn’t…him.
It was Liam. He sat on the sofa just by a corner I didn’t notice in the sitting room. With his legs crossed, his black oxford shoes shook with a touch of manliness. The both of his arms pressed flatly at the upper part, of the white couch.
Like a deer caught in head lights, I moved to face him wholly. With my bag in my hand, I timidly observed him. The instant my eyes locked with his, a vivid recall of last night appeared in my head.
The bar.
My tantrums.
And, my words…
My words…Oh my gosh, my last words?!
I immediately averted my eyes, looking at the other side of the room.
“I…um...I was j-just going back, Liam. I don’t want to be a burden to you anymore.” I muttered.
Please don’t ask me an

“H-how exercising i-is done in a billionaire’s world??”What did he even mean by that?Was he trying to once again, show off?“Stop the car, right now.”I seethed to the chauffeur, folding my arms.I could feel my temper slowly rising. The reason I had gone jogging, was to clear my head.And now, being around him was enough to install fury in them once more.“Keep going,” Liam directed in a dominating tune.I sighed.Off course. What did I expect? He was the boss.“So, you’re literally taking me against my will? This is kidnapping!”I yelled at the top of my guts, feeling insanely helpless.“Is that what you’d prefer to call it, red?” he smirked.My eyes, startled, looked inside his mesmerizing green orb ones. They seemed somewhat confident.Damn.How could I have forgotten?He appe

“You keep doing this, red. Whenever I try to take a step to getting close to you, you push me away.”Remembering those words, made me have a void and empty feeling.I questioned everything around me, wondering how the anklet managed to leave my ankles.I mean, did he even know how hurtful those words were?I found it hard to put myself together.I ended up going back to where we horse rode and also back to the golf center.“Excuse me, did you see a silver anklet around here?” I asked the people around.“No, nothing,”I didn’t stop at that, and searched thoroughly. A couple of spots we went to, I even went as far as requesting for the horse we rode. I checked the stables, and the dung, but found nothing.That made my hands really dirty. But I knew it didn’t matter. What did matter was finding the bracelet, and wiping off that look of displeasu

Chloe’s Pov Driving Eleanor to Liam James’ house was simply no big deal for me. Honestly, my best friend had to quench her feistiness and start going after what she really liked. Not some random guy that played with her feelings. These were my thoughts as I gripped the steering wheel, driving down to Orange Summers. “Seems like Eleanor has found her happy ending, I have to find mine,” I muttered to myself with a smile. My intentions were simple. I was chasing the male I met at the bar the other day. I didn’t even care if that would make me a stalker. I just craved his appearance. At least, I hoped he’d show up again. … Just as I drove to Orange Summers, I noticed they were on a Promo sales; thus, they had more customers. I had to share a seat with a certain dude who covered h

“So, what do you say red? Would you be my assistant?”Liam asked.We were outside his private suite, in his hangout spot. While the others, were inside.I fidgeted my hands, nervously looking the other way, as I searched for words.“You’re not doing this from your liking of me, are you?” I sprung out accusingly.He looked at me with an astonished look written all over his facial expression.“Why would you think that?”“What am I supposed to think, Liam? I mean, I can barely keep my job…Talk less of being the assistant of a famous billionaire…”“Red…”“What if I screw it up?”“Red, listen…”“I could make a mistake and ruin it all, I’m not fit enough for you, Liam. I’m—”His lips suddenly enjoined with mine.W-What?I to

“I don’t f*ck virgins, red.”I wriggled my eyebrows, narrowing my eyes at his words. I mean, we were in this intimate position, and he had just muttered absurd.I tugged him to get off, making my way to stand up tangled, only for him to pin me back down.“What do you mean?”I asked him immediately, feeling a twinge of unsureness and humiliation.My eyes directed to his hardened c*ck, before taking a large gulp.“Sorry, that came out in a way I didn’t intend it to…”“What I meant to say was that I’ve never been with a virgin, red.” he stated, apologetically.In relief, I sighed, staring into his amazing green orb eyes.“Oh silly, you totally scared me…”“Come here,” I added frantically, kissing him.His hands slowly gripped my chin.“Never do that again.”I sighed.

Eleanor’s PovWaking up in Liam James’ bed the next day was sort of weird. I mean, if anyone had told me that this was going to happen, I definitely would have ignored it and marked it off my list.It was more like a fantasy; one that I never thought I’d wake up from.A ringing sound suddenly jingled my lovey-dovey thoughts away.Seemed like reality had taken more of the fantasy.And we were far from being asleep, because natural causes would always wake us up.“Dammit,”I looked towards the place the sound came from, 9immediately. It wasn’t my ringtone. Which meant, it was definitely Liam’s. And he was fast asleep, cuddling me so tenderly without even considering or bulging to reach for it.“Get that… would you?”I mouthed off, sleepily.I stretched my hands

Eleanor’s PovThe rest of the day, as being his assistant, was all formal. Though we could feel the heated state, radiate in the atmosphere, neither of us made a move to actually say something to the other.I was barely keeping up with this, because I knew I needed the money.Badly.Without it, I wouldn’t be able to pay up any of my bills.And I would simply be on the streets.Which could be scary.This was why I didn’t make any move to break down.But the instant the day’s work was over, I found myself following the same trail once more.Meekly, I walked home specially to punish myself.As I walked, various flashbacks of the past replayed.The instances Boss Liam had helped me, in spite of my overbearing behavior towards him.While we were back at Mexico.

“M-My father?”I muttered after him, dusting off my skirt.“Yes, dear.” he remarked.I remembered mum saying something about him.Of how I was abandoned since I was an illegitimate child.I tilted my mouth, pressing my lips in a firm frown.“How charitable, Mr. Reyes. Why would you want me now, when you never did?”I rolled my eyes, hissing loudly with an attempt to walk away. A nudged around my hands instantly. While I glared at him, he stated,“I don’t know what you heard, child. But I never even knew you existed.”I swallowed, with my eyes batting off tears.Seemed like I was getting really emotional, these days.“You’re lying,”“You think I am? Then why don’t we ask Melanie?” he said, referring to my mum.“Don’t you dare call her name like you cared in the first plac

Liam’s Pov In the right way, Reyes had been dealt with. His properties would be seized by the government, in a few days from now. Which only meant one thing— this was it. “Red…” I trailed on my words, stretching my hands towards her. We were both inside the ambulance van, by each other’s side. Seemed like I took the most injuries, yet somehow, I had been able to wake up and fight. “Liam.” she breathed out, replying. “I-It’s all over…still unbelievable. I thought…I- thought we were all going to…” “Shhh.” I urged, placing a hand on her lip and silencing her. I couldn’t imagine ever losing her, so I couldn’t even bear to think of it. My injury was external, thankfully, she had a few scratches. But she still needed to be checked on, and thoroughly examined. In the other ambulance van was Chloe. Jackson had gone to her,

I screamed and screamed my guts out, but it was all futile. They kept dragging us both, till we reached beside the truck.“Now.”One of them ordered. Some black van pulled over. That instant, black sacks were put over my head. I struggled as I was being put in.“You don’t have to do this, you know.”I muttered. “Shut up, bitch.”Some rough voice sneered, irritatingly.I bit my lips, not knowing what step to take again. My entire body froze, as I stopped struggling out of fear. Hands shaking rapidly, as the van drove speedily.Liam was just beside me and he was still passed out.I wondered how hard the accident hit him. I needed to manipulate our way, out of here, since he won’t wake up.“We can pay three times the amount he’s paying you.”I attempted to convince that again.“Tsk…that’s it.”The va

Never ever would I have thought, that I would be dating this infuriating billionaire.Liam James.Arrogant and cocky…yet, the best thing that ever happened to me.Towards evening, my phone suddenly rang out. Chloe popped up on the screen.“Hello.”I called out to the receiver button. Still in the pink fluffy dress I had just used for shoot, my face was caked in a vampiric makeup. That was more of today’s theme, in Pink Moda.“Eleanor…”She trailed out weakly, in a husky tone. I wriggled my brows. “Are you okay, Clo? You sound really bad,”“I confessed my feelings to him but he rejected me. H-He rejected me, and now…I don’t know what to do.”“I j

Chloe’s PovI took an early leave to go home today, from work.I was so tired. Tired of everything.My shitty love life, and the fact that Jackson, who I presently liked, thought of us as friends and nothing else.These were my thoughts as I entered my car, zooming off at high speed. My thoughts drifted to Orange Summers—the only place that I took comfort in.“Chloe, I see you’re here again?” The bar tender called out, as I dragged a stool, sitting on it. Seemed he was used to my presence so much already.“Yeah Ray… I want four bottles of beer, please.”I ordered, bringing my phone out from my purse and settling it on the bar’s table. I texted Eleanor, but it seemed like she was busy with work too.Of recent, she was the only one I turned to in times of need. Friends at my workplace, only remaine
Fall in Love with a Billionaire 62. Forgive Me
I became very glad that I had sorted things out with mum. Thing became insanely perfect afterwards.While I handled with Mr. Reyes, making him believe I would move back with him to Mexico, I moved back to the company’s house.Mr. Reyes had told me that the minute he was done with some personal matters in America, we would be returning to Mexico together.He had sent loads of money into my bank account, telling me this was the start point.“That bastard.”Did he think money could buy a true family’s love? He had to be joking.One morning, just as I was on my way to work, in my disguise outfit, a car pulled over beside me.I totally ignored it, but when it kept on following me, I became insanely creeped out.“HEY!

Every instant, as time passed, I could tell red was in trouble. Mr Reyes, was someone highly dangerous. And, I had to take caution when dealing with him. Since he was in town, it was so much better. I would be able to keep tabs on his business back in Mexico, and his intentions with red. I needed to know why he’d suddenly show up after all the years, to ruin her life. What exactly did he even want from her? “Solomon,” I stated, after dialing my ex-assistant’s number. He had been the one helping me all this while, to find out clues to bring Reyes down.

“It isn’t funny that your dad, a rich billionaire suddenly wants you back?” Chloe’s words reminisced my head. “Nope…I mean my mum lied to me, Chloe. And I, um…don’t even know if I should be trusting her again.” “Why not, she’s your mum. You should know the type of person she is by now, Eleanor.” “Don’t let some stranger, who was never present ruin that nice relationship between you both. She might not have given you the comfortable life but you turned out right,” She had stated. “I mean, look at you girl. You’re a survivor. As Nikki Fox, the world hated on you but you’re still going.” “What am I going to do, Clo?” Almost at the verge of tears, I had asked. “Talk to your mum, it would make more sense if everyone’s on your side, bestie.

Fall in Love with a Billionaire 59. Getting Steamy On The Office Table
My thoughts were scrambled with yesterday’s incidence the minute I woke up. I remembered drinking to forget it all, but now… I wanted to sleep once more not to even think of it. Mum’s betrayal. Liam’s words about Mr. Reyes. Did she do it to protect me, like she said? Suddenly, flashbacks of last night spinned in my head. “I had a shitty day, Liam. Please make love to me,” Oh no… “We aren’t even in a relationship anymore, remember?” He had tried convincing me out of it, but I still shamelessly pushed on. “I was overshadowed by my own countenance and wishful thinking, for that I’m sorry,” “Now fuck me,” My eyes widened at my words, with my toes entangling each other. It was no wonder I felt sore in between my legs. We did make love last night, for the second time. And we did it countlessly, till we were exhausted. I hope he didn’t wake up.

“A shot of vodka, please.”I said, wondering why one bad thing or the other had to always happen to me.While I walked out of the house, Mr. Reyes tried to talk to me, but I didn’t even feel like speaking to anyone.Not at all.I felt like shit and didn’t even know what to do.My mouth tasted in displeasure when he gave me his business card. I put it in my purse, walking to Orange Summers, the only place that seemed to understand me.“And one too, for me.”A familiar low baritone voice, lurked in surprisingly behind me. I looked behind me, only to see Liam clothed in his usual black expensive suit, looking as handsome and gorgeous as ever.He settled on a chair just beside me.I almost couldn’t believe my eyes.“Liam, what are you doing here?”I asked, with a sigh, almost cringing in distress. A look of worry was plastered on my fa
