Living with the Five Billionaires Chapter 19.1 "The Five Men are Weird"
Ryan finished cooking, yet no one among her five dorm mates went down to join her for dinner.“Aren’t they going to eat?”Wondering why, Ryan was forced to visit each of them.Chaylen was inside his room. He was sitting in front of his study desk while in deep thought.“What’s happening to me?” he asked himself while recalling the time his heartbeat was so fast because of Ryan. “That is definitely not me,” he added, rubbing his lips.An image appeared in his imagination which pulled the corner of his lips for a smirk.“I just noticed that her lips look so soft,” he chuckled huskily.It took him seconds before he snapped out and pulled the smile away from his lips.“My lust made me feel giddy and gave me feelings of butterflies which don't make sense. Why?” he asked himself and then shook his head.At the same time, he heard knocks on the door.When he turned around, he heard Ryan shouting, “Hey Chaylen!”He thought he was only hallucinating. But on the second call, he was convinced th

Ryan woke up late. When she walked out of her room, Slyvester, Kyle, Vincent, and Terban weren’t home.She planned to borrow money from one of her board mates, but it looked like she was so unfortunate to find Chaylen alone in the living room.‘Why does it have to be him?!’ she complained inwardly. Ryan looked at Chaylen, who was sleeping on the couch. He was snoring so loud; that she had second thoughts if this is really the famous Chaylen, who was loved by hundreds and thousands of women. “Hearing him snore like a pig will probably be a big turn-off,” Ryan said while staring at him.She thought it would be better to ignore Chaylen, not until she had a silly idea in her head.Ryan tiptoed towards the sleeping Chaylen as if she didn’t want to wake up a beast. Rather than calling Chaylen a beast, he is a poor victim of Ryan’s antics.What will the childish Ryan do?“Right now, you are looking at a man who broke a lot of women’s hearts. Beware of this pig,” Ryan whispered while secr
Living with the Five Billionaires Chapter 20 "When He Lives Like a Trash"
Ryan’s POVChaylen and I arrived at the StarB*cks, where I will meet the man who picked up my card holder.“Where is he?” I mumbled while looking around the place.The man said that he’s wearing a black suit. There aren’t that many who’s wearing a suit inside the shop, but still, it is hard to find him in one go.“Did he tell you what he looks like?” Chaylen asked me.“He said that he’s wearing a black suit.”“That’s all? Man. Is he the only one who can wear a black suit today?” I shrugged my shoulders and continued looking around. I noticed that many females here were staring at the guy next to me.Well, I have to admit that Chaylen is dangerously sexy and handsome. He has the aura of being a ‘P*nty ripper’, which would not go with my style.But I felt proud standing next to a famous guy like him.While smiling evilly, my eyes caught a middle-aged man waving at me.‘Maybe he is the one I’ve been looking for!’ “I think that is him!” I gasped before I waved at the man. I walked to
Living with the Five Billionaires Chapter 21 "The Infamous Five Billionaires"
Emily saw her best friend sitting on the bench underneath the shade. She walked closer to her and greeted, “Hey dude! Wazzup! It’s been a long time!”Ryan looked back at Emily with a face that says: ‘I didn’t know you existed.’“I was so busy with my study that’s why I couldn’t meet you, my dear friend,” Emily said as she sat next to Ryan and wrapped her arm around Ryan’s shoulder.“Don’t give me a damn, Emily. I know you are busy looking for part-time jobs.”“Aren’t I amazing? I am a working student! You should be proud.” “As if. You only need money to buy a concert ticket for your idols.”“Don’t judge a K-pop fan like me. Seeing my Oppa# is the source of my life. If you take that out of my f*cking life, I’ll be as good as dead.”(#Korean word for older brother/lover)Ryan only shook her head while laughing.“Anyway, did you see each other already?” Emily diverted the topic.But Ryan could not follow. “What? Who?”Ryan’s expression told Emily that she knew nothing about Terban.[“
Living with the Five Billionaires Chapter 22 "Meeting My Childhood Friend"
Ryan’s POVI was in such a hurry that I entered the wrong room.Yes. I accidentally invaded my enemy’s territory.‘I’m gonna die if Mr. Negative sees me.’However, all plans to escape were futile. It is because I saw the owner of this room lying on his bed while looking at me with his rounded eyes.‘He caught me. Damn it!’“I c-can explain!” I spoke. “I didn’t mean to come here! I…”[“Terban? Are you there? Yohoo~”]My eyes went to the phone on the study table. It seems like he was talking to someone through the phone in speaker mode.But that’s not the deal.It was the name that I heard which put me on halt.‘Terban?’[“Terban! Dude!”]I heard it right. The other person from the other line called Mr. Negative as “Terban.”He sat up without breaking his gaze at me. He grabbed his phone and ended the call. Staring at him reminded me of all the reasons why I decided to enroll in this university and why I endured living with men under the same roof. It was to find my old friend named
Living with the Five Billionaires Chapter 23"Jealousy"
It’s been days since Ryan met her parents in the coffee shop. She hadn’t told them the truth yet, fearing that they might ask her to get out of the house.Even so, Ryan knew that she must tell them everything.“They will get mad if they find out about this from other people,” Ryan murmured as she walked inside the comfort room of the campus.She looked at her reflection in the mirror and spoke to herself.“I feel guilty for lying.”He put her folder down and rummaged inside her bag. Her favorite pen fell and rolled inside the cubicle. Ryan carried her bag and folders while walking inside the cubicle to pick up her pen.As soon as she stepped inside, she heard a group of girls talking to each other inside the comfort room. “Have you ever heard about Ryan Mcguffin?”Ryan was surprised to hear her name from someone she doesn’t know. She pointed to herself, thinking, ‘Are they talking about me?’ And so, she stayed inside the cubicle and listened.“Yes. That is the girl who lives togethe
Living with the Five Billionaires Chapter 24 "Calm Before the Storm"
Ryan was planning to wash her dirty clothes today. But the washing machine is broken.It’s been two hours since she started hand-washing her clothes in the backyard of the boarding house. But now, she is still not finished. She could just go to the laundry shop. However, the shop was far away. She also didn’t like the idea of carrying her clothes on her own.‘Living alone is difficult,’ she sighed inwardly while washing the clothes.“It’s tiring.”Ryan kneaded the garment with detergent. Then, Kyle came.Kyle saw her sweating so hard as if she was in the middle of a war.‘Still, she’s cute,’ he thought.Kyle quickly shook his head and took deep breaths.It’s been half a month since he started to avoid Ryan. He thought this was the time to talk to her.“The washing machine is broken, right?” Kyle said. Ryan looked at Kyle with widened eyes. She was surprised that Kyle was talking to her now.‘Maybe, he doesn’t have a period anymore,’ Ryan thought, forgetting the fact that men don’t
Living with the Five Billionaires Chapter 25 "Confession"
Ryan’s POV When I woke up, I went to the garden to breathe some fresh air.Somehow, I couldn’t erase the things that happened to me yesterday.Vincent caught me hanging inside Slyvester’s room.“I hope he wouldn’t misunderstand it,” I said with a sigh.Wishing that everything would be okay, I looked up at the blue sky and the blackbird flying into the air.My class will start at 11 am. So, I still have a lot of time to waste.While getting the vitamin D that I need, someone from behind covered my eyes with his hands. Is something trying to make a joke at me early in the morning?I am already not in the mood!“Whoever it is, stop it. I am not in the mood to joke around,” I said.“Guess who~,” he said with a voice that does not sound familiar.Basically, the man behind me purposely changed his voice. ‘Who could it be?’ If he is Chaylen, I will kick him right away.Terban won’t do something so cheesy as this.I couldn’t imagine Vince doing this either.Then, is it Kyle?“Is that

Living with the Five Billionaires Epilogue three "FlashBack On Her Wedding Day"
“I declare you husband and wife!” The officiant pronounced Slyvester and Ryan as husband and wife, prompting a round of enthusiastic applause from the wedding guests. However, Slyvester's gaze remained fixed on his stunning bride, oblivious to the commotion. At that moment, Slyvester desired a lifetime of happiness with Ryan and possibly starting a family with her. While it is often said that men shed tears of joy during such occasions, Slyvester was too overjoyed to cry. Perhaps Ryan's parents cried enough for both of them, especially since Slyvester had once posed as a woman to deceive them. Nevertheless, Mr. and Mrs. Mcguffin had forgiven him and moved on from the past. "So, we're a married couple now," Ryan said excitedly. “Hmmm, we are,” Slyvester mumbled. He cupped her cheeks and leaned his forehead on hers. "Kiss her! Kiss her!” The wedding guests scream. This won't be their first kiss. Before and while they were dating, Slyvester had already kissed his girlfriend a l
Living with the Five Billionaires Epilogue two "Living with the Five Billionaires"
Ryan was an aspiring author who dreamed of publishing a book to hook readers. That's why, even though the readers from online reading sites were few, she kept publishing different stories.Of course, popular books are consistently rated 18. Ryan didn't have the guts to try it, so she stuck writing innocent comedy and romance genres. However, she wasn't lucky enough to get her break. Sitting in front of the laptop, Ryan read one of the comments from her book."The author narrates well, but the plot is too cliche. Then the event is not realistic either."Ryan felt sad while reading the comments. She took a deep breath and leaned her back against the office chair. She wiped her eyes under her rounded glasses. She looked again at the comments, where only a few had positive feedback."Maybe writing is not my line," said the woman who had just passed the boarding exam.Even though she took an engineering course in college, she didn't want to let go of her dream of becoming a writer and be
Living with the Five Billionaires Epilogue one "Eight Years After"

It would be best if you went home so I can close the restaurant," Chef Slyvester rudely tried to ask friends to leave.The four looked at him one by one:Kyle was a successful architect who managed his family’s architectural firm—Chaylen, who had the most significant shares in his Father’s corporation.

He had already cooked for them without charge, an

As he walked in, he spotted Ryan descending the stairs with a large suitcase.Slyvester's heart shattered upon realizing that Terban’s words were valid - the woman he loved was leaving without a word to him.

Living with the Five Billionaires Chapter 93 "Competitors and Friends"
Four men were gathered in front of a large gate. While other students were studying inside the library or in their rooms, Kyle, Chaylen, Vincent, and Terban waited outside Slyvester's house."Woah. Slyvester’s house is big,” Chaylen expressed, surprised at the grandeur house in front of them. “He acts like a beggar in the boarding house; I did not expect that he is actually rich,” he added.Terban looked at the house casually and asked, "So, how do we get in?""We're going to throw you over the gate," Vincent replied.Terban quickly retorted, “We can use the doorbell, you dumbass.”“Why ask if you knew the answer? Idiot,” Vincent said.The two looked at each other, and an invisible lightning spark formed between them."Aren't you tired of fighting?" Chaylen commented sympathetically as he watched the two men, who seemed like dogs and cats. "You fought so many times; you can list yourself to the Genius World Book of Record."Terban and Vincent both frowned. Their eyes slowly moved towa
Living with the Five Billionaires Chapter 92 "Father and Son"
Yhlei looked outside the car window and recalled what happened last night.Last night, Slyvester came home drunk. His face was red, and he could not look straight. The drunken man, who almost stumbled, greeted his mother with a smile.“Hello, Mom. Where’s Dad?” Right at that time, his dad walked down the stairway. Far away, he could already smell the pungent smell of the alcohol. "You're drunk? You came home late at night and drunk?" Yhlei's face was full of disappointment. The first thing that came to his mind was his son's reputation. Slyvester can be the new successor of Ixumi Corporation. But he walked down the road swaying and unstable? What if he did some embarrassing things on the way home?"Dad," Slyvester called him. Suddenly, Slyvester knelt in front of his father. His dad, his mom, and Ran, who was unexpectedly present at that time, had their eyes wide open. "I did everything you wanted," said the Slyvester. "What to wear, what to behave, the people I should be frie
Living with the Five Billionaires Chapter 91 "The Party is Over"
Kyle, Chaylen, and Emily exchanged perplexed glances as they beheld Sylvester, who was standing motionless in front of the cabinet. Their view was obstructed, so they couldn't discern what had seized his attention. Meanwhile, within the cabinet, Terban and Ryan were frozen in silence, incapable of uttering a word, moving a muscle, or even drawing breath. They knew full well that this would only lead to further misunderstandings.And then…“F*ck it!” Sylvester let out a string of expletives before wrenching open the cabinet once more and yanking Ryan's wrist out forcefully.“Ahh!” Ryan winced in agony from the sudden movement, realizing that Sylvester was livid.Terban observed Sylvester's tight grip on Ryan's hand and understood why he was so incensed. He knew that he would feel the same way if he were in Sylvester's shoes. However, he couldn't help but feel vexed as he watched Sylvester haul Ryan away. "S- Slyvester," Ryan called him while wincing. Only then did the three underst

Slyvester wanted to call Ryan, knowing he would seek comfort with her. However, he received a text from his cousin, asking him if he would attend their gathering, and that was only when Slyvester recalled that he planned with his relatives that day. His cousins were asking about Slyvester’s girlfriend enthusiastically, as if finding fault they could use against Slyvester. Fully aware of this ill intention, Slyvester meets them and warns them not to touch Ryan. Slyvester knew his cousins would never waste a chance to defeat him for Ixumi's inheritance.‘After I settled everything, I’ll return to the boarding house as a happy Slyvester,’ he promised himself.Slyvester grew up sociable because he missed the happy company of the first people around.

Living with the Five Billionaires Chapter 90.1 "Hide but SEEK"
Third Person's POVAfter taking a break to eat and rest, Chaylen suggested playing a game. Initially, Terban and Vincent were hesitant, feeling too old to play games. However, they eventually joined in, becoming quite competitive and not wanting to lose.Chaylen had created a unique game just to spend more time with Ryan - hide and seek.“Hide and seek? Are you sane? We are too old for that,” Terban expressed his disbelief.But Chaylen explained, “Why not? The boarding house was big enough for the game to work well.”Aside from that, Chaylen believed that game would allow him to take Ryan to a quiet spot and talk to her in private. It was a selfish wish from a heartbroken guy who wanted to spend a lovely time with his first love.“Childish game suits you so much, Chaylen,” Vincent complained, but still, he was willing to participate.“There are seven of us,” Emily said, ignoring Vincent and Terban’s complaints. “We should group ourselves into two! Whoever doesn’t have a partner will
