Winter's POV

"Winter, I want you to meet Ian Lewis. Ian Lewis, this is Winter Wesley. The two of you will be playing the lead roles in the drama, My Pretty Mermaid." said the producer.

I just glanced at Ian then I averted my gaze again while drinking my iced coffee. "Umm, okay."

"Is that how you really greet your leading man?"

"Well, yeah. Any problem with that?" I said, without looking at him.

He laughed sarcastically. "Your management must spoil you too much. Because you're the highest-paid celebrity in the country, you're already treating other people like they owe you something."

That made me glare at him. "What did you say?"

"Er... Winter and Ian, please don't fight here. You are going to work with each other for a few months, so please get along well."

I rolled my eyes and stood up. "Whatever. I will never o to any shooting if that moron doesn't behave well."

"W-What did you just call me?!"

"E-Enough now. Okay, let's just meet again tomorrow for the photoshoot. You may all leav

  • My Belittled Husband is a Billionaire   CHAPTER 14: BELITTLING MATTHEW

    Matthew's POV"Thank you so much for driving me home, Jack," I said as stepped out of the car that Mr. Wesley let me borrow. Jack bowed his head and smiled. "You're welcome, sir."After that, I finally headed inside our house. 'Welcome back, Sir Matthew.' said the maids to me."Thank you. By the way, is Winter home already?""Miss Winter hasn't arrived yet, sir. But Mr. and Mrs. Wesley is in the dining room with Summer.""Oh, I see. I'll go there now."I went straight to the dining hall, and I immediately saw Winter's family sitting at the long table."Good evening, Mr. and Mrs. Wesley. To you too, Summer." I greeted them with a smile on my face."Good evening, Matthew!" Summer greeted me back.I was about to give Mrs. Wesley a kiss on the cheek, but then she turned her face away from me. "Where is Winter?""She hasn't arrived yet. Maybe she's still discussing with her management about her new drama project.""That kid really never changed. Even if she's already married, she still

  • My Belittled Husband is a Billionaire   CHAPTER 15: WINTER'S SECRET

    Winter's POVAs soon as I stepped inside the house, I saw Matthew wiping his suit with a handkerchief. "What are you doing?" I asked him."O-Oh, you're already here. Welcome home, Winter. By the way, your parents and sister are---"A married woman like you shouldn't take this long outside."I suddenly saw mom and dad, together with their favorite child. "What are you doing here?" I asked."We just wanted to know how you are doing." mom said.I rolled my eyes. "Too bad I'm still alive.""Winter, you shouldn't talk like that to mom." Summer said to me."Whatever. Can you leave now? I'm already tired. I'm heading to my room now."I was about to continue walking when I suddenly felt something hard hit my back. As I turned around, I saw the Chanel bag of my mom lying on the floor."How can you talk to me like that?! You never really changed, Winter! You are still an ill-mannered spoiled brat who doesn't know how to respect her parents!""I know that already. Yes, I am the spoiled brat yo

  • My Belittled Husband is a Billionaire   CHAPTER 16: POOR MATTHEW

    Themis' POV"I think Winter and her parents haven't accepted me as a part of the family, yet. But I do understand them. I know it's not that easy to trust someone so easily, especially because they never met me before.""I apologize if ever Winter's parents say anything bad to you. As you can see, they want the company for themselves. That is why it really hurts their ego to see a stranger. I know it sounds weird, but I don't even trust my son. That is because I know if he ever takes over the company, he would only use it to fulfill his selfish desires together with his wife." Mr. Wesley said to me while we were talking inside the office.I nodded my head. "I see. But you only have him, right? Who else would you take over the company to if not him?""To Winter's husband. That is why I let you take over the role of the president. Winter isn't really interested in my company, but I know she will find a good man who can do it for her. She has a good heart, and so does her husband.""I do

  • My Belittled Husband is a Billionaire   CHAPTER 17: GLIMPSE OF PAST

    Themis' POV"From now on, you are going to drive me anywhere I want to go." Mrs. Wesley said to me while we were inside my car going back to their house."H-Huh? But I still have to go to work, Mrs. Wesley. That only means there would be times when I wouldn't be able to drive you to wherever you want to go.""I don't care. You don't even have any money when you married my daughter. At least you can return the favor that our family is giving you by serving as my driver. You know you can't complain because our family feeds you." She said again.I just heaved a sigh and continue driving until we finally reached their house. Mrs. Wesley even told their butlers and maids not to help me with the things that she bought. I don't even know why she was doing that to me, but for sure, it has something to do with my position and my status."Mrs. Wesley, I will go home now," I said politely.She turned around and looked at me. "Make sure to go here early tomorrow before you go to the company build

  • My Belittled Husband is a Billionaire   CHAPTER 18: SCRIPT READING

    Winter's POV"Excuse me, can you repeat that part again?" Ian said to me for the fifth time.We were already doing a script reading for the new movie that I have to do with him, even though that's the last thing I want to do. "I already read that part a hundred times now," I said, irritated."Then repeat it again. At least pour some emotions into it."I was about to yell at him, but then Haley stopped me by holding my arm. Right. There are so many cameras around us, so I have to behave well. And aside from that, he keeps on threatening me he would spill my past if I don't agree with what he wanted me to do. What a pain in the ass.I covertly rolled my eyes as I heaved a sigh and started reading that line in the script once again.We kept on repeating that until he got satisfied and the script reading finally ended. "We're finally done! We will begin shooting the first episode next week!" said the director to us."Olivia, give me my bag." "Y-Yes, Miss Winter.""So, see you next we

  • My Belittled Husband is a Billionaire   CHAPTER 19: WHO ARE YOU

    Winter's POV"What are you cooking?" I asked when I saw Matthew in the kitchen. He then stopped what he was doing and looked at me. "Oh, you're already awake. I'm just making pancakes. Do you want some?""No, thanks. I won't eat anything you made." I said then I sat down. "I understand."The maids prepared my breakfast while Matthew also sat down with me. I raised my brow while looking at him. "And who told you you can sit here with me?""Huh?""I hate it when someone joins me while eating breakfast. You can go to your room or to the living room to eat your stupid breakfast.""You don't want to have breakfast with me?""That's right. I don't want to eat with someone like you. So, go ahead and leave me alone here."He nodded his head as he stood up and brought his plate to the living room.At least he obeyed what I said. Seeing him pissess me off a lot. Good thing I don't have a taping with the other asshole today, so I won't be able to see Ian."Miss Winter, where are we going today

  • My Belittled Husband is a Billionaire   CHAPTER 20: REASSURING

    Themis' POVWinter and her assistant have been following me since I left this morning. I don't know what their reasons are, but she's probably trying to know something about me. One of these days, I'll expect her to hire a personal investigator to watch over me every single day. I need to give her assurance that I am not doing anything fishy. She needs to believe all the lies that I told them."She followed you yesterday?""Yes, I think she still has doubts about me. One of these days, for sure, she'll hire someone to watch my every move."Mr. Wesley nodded his head as he spoke. " I see. Winter is really a smart kid ever since. She always has doubts about the surrounding people. I can't blame her, though. But don't worry, Matthew. I will help you with that. You also have to be careful from now on. Maybe she could even put a listening device to one of your things, so you need to be extra careful.""I understand, Mr. Wesley.""By the way, I've heard that ever since you came, our sales

  • My Belittled Husband is a Billionaire   CHAPTER 21: ANNOYING IAN

    Winter's POV"Cut!" the director shouted as soon as we were done shooting the first part.I immediately moved away from Ian and asked Olivia for alcohol to wipe myself since I just touched the devil. "Are you that allergic to me?" Ian asked me sarcastically upon seeing me wiping the hands that he just touched. "Uh-huh."He laughed. "I should be the one wiping my hands from touching you. We both know who has the dirtiest hands here."I almost slapped him from saying that, but I held myself back. I just widened my eyes at him and glanced around to see if somebody actually heard him say that. Good thing Olivia was the only one standing beside me."Shut the fuck up." I whispered to Ian, who just smirked at me.He really keeps on bringing that up whenever I annoy him. If only I could do something for him to stop bringing that up. Why do I even have to meet him again?"Miss Winter, do you want to have some water?" Olivia suddenly asked me."No, thanks."After a few minutes, we began filmi

    Winter's POV "Pumpkin! You won't believe who I just met this morning!" I excitedly said as soon as I entered our house and saw Matthew preparing our dinner. He turned around and kissed me on the cheek before speaking. "Who is it?" "It's Winston. My first boyfriend." His brows furrowed. "Y-Your first boyfriend?" "Uh-huh. He is my very first investor. Oh gosh, I didn't expect it to be him. He didn't change, actually. He is still as handsome as ever." "I see. So, you think he is more handsome than me?" he said as he continued cooking. I giggled as I hugged his back. "So, are you getting jealous now because he is my first love?" "Of course, not. I just hate the way you smile while talking about some other man being handsome." "Oh, Matthew. You still get jealous when you already had me first." I whispered seductively in his ear which made him immediately turn around and widen his eyes at me. "Winter! Elisse might hear you!" I cupped both of his cheeks as I chuckle

  • My Belittled Husband is a Billionaire   CHAPTER 121: WINSTON

    Winter's POV "So, where's your girlfriend and why are you here?" I asked Ian as soon as he stepped into my office. He sat down on the couch from across my table and looked at me. "She's at work." "Then why don't you bother her instead?" "I just went here because your boutique is much closer to my restaurant. And also..." I looked at him. "And also?" He looked so serious as he looked directly at me. "I've heard about it." "A-About what?" "About your family." When I realized what he was talking about, I averted my gaze from him. "Well, you heard it right. I'm not really a part of their family. And now, I don't even know who my real parents are." "That must be tough for you." "It is. But then I realized that there is no reason for me to agonize about it. They never treated me as a part of their family, anyway. At least I no longer have to wonder why they can never appreciate the things that I do." "Winter..." "Anyway, I still have a meeting with a p

  • My Belittled Husband is a Billionaire   CHAPTER 120: HOW TO START AGAIN

    Winter’s POVI woke up with Matthew still sleeping beside me. I couldn’t help but smile while looking at him. Something happened between the two of us last night and I don’t regret it. Although I still can’t forget about what I just found out about my family, Matthew made me feel better. “Winter…” he looked at me worriedly as soon as he opened his eyes. I gave him a smile. “Good morning, Matthew.”“Are you alright now?” “I feel better now.”He heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good to hear then.”“You’re such a naughty pumpkin.”“Huh?”“I didn’t know you’re so good at it.” I teased him. That immediately made him blush. “D…Do you want to have breakfast already? I’ll prepare it now.”I laughed as I hugged him. “Look at you getting embarrassed so easily. You really are so cute.”“Winter.”“I finally made up my mind.”“Huh?”I took a deep breathe before speaking again. “Let’s go somewhere far from everyone. I want to start a new life; I want to find who I really am. I want to know who

  • My Belittled Husband is a Billionaire   CHAPTER 119: MY ONLY ONE

    Winter's POV"Here, have some hot chocolate first." Matthew sat next to me as he placed a glass of water on the center table.He brought me to an inn after what happened a while ago. I told him that I want to be away from everyone for a while."Matthew.""Hmm?""Elisse... We should have brought her with us."He shook his head. "Don't worry, I'll get her tomorrow morning. I have also told Maggie and the others to watch after her.""Okay...""A-Are you alright? N-No, I mean, what do you want to do? Do you want to eat or something?" he asked, obviously worried about me.I heaved a sigh and slowly nodded my head. "I think I'll just eat...""Okay. Wait for me here, okay? I'll prepare something for you.""Okay.."I leaned on the couch as I pulled the blanket and covered myself with it while waiting for Matthew.It only took thirty minutes before he finally brought some food and placed them on the center table."It's Almond Butter Curry.""You do know a lot of cuisines, huh?"He smiled as he

  • My Belittled Husband is a Billionaire   CHAPTER 118: THE TRUTH

    Winter's POVI woke up with Matthew hugging me tightly like a pillow as he slept.I roamed my eyes around the room and didn't find Elisse anywhere. I couldn't hear her voice from anywhere inside the room either.She woke up early today, huh?She probably went out to play with Maggie. She's really that close with our maids. That's why we had no choice but to bring them with us here in New Zealand. I turned my body to Matthew, who was still sleeping soundly. I couldn't help but smile as I stared at his handsome, innocent face as he sleeps. He really looks like a little kid whenever he sleeps. His brows were furrowed as if he was fighting with someone in his dreams and his lips were pouting. He got so tired from driving and carrying all our things yesterday, that's probably the reason why he's still asleep right now."What a sleepy head," I whispered, then pinched his cheeks. Good thing, that didn't wake him up. Instead, he turned to the other side without opening his eyes.I got up and

  • My Belittled Husband is a Billionaire   CHAPTER 117: HIKING

    Winter's POV"Can I go hiking with you, guys?" Summer asked when Matthew, Elisse, and I were done preparing for our hiking that I planned the other day. We weren't able to do it yesterday since we went out with the whole family although Matthew prepared everything that we'll need and he was also able to call some staff. I shook my head immediately. "No, you can't. Why don't you just go yourself? It's a family day, so you can't go with us. Also, you're afraid of heights, right? Something bad might happen there and mom would blame me for it, for sure.""But, I haven't experienced hiking yet. That's why I thought I could go with you guys. I promise I wouldn't be a burden. I won't let anything bad happen to me.""It's alright, you can go with us." Matthew suddenly said. I turned around and glared at him. "She can't go with us. It's a family day.""She promised not to bother us, anyway. Besides, she's also a part of our family since she's your sister.""Thank you so much, Matthew! Wait,

  • My Belittled Husband is a Billionaire   CHAPTER 116: FAVORITE GRAND DAUGHTER

    Winter's POVAfter wine touring, we then went to South island to ski and try the Hanmer Springs.Snow-capped mountains and towering forests surrounded the place. It also has a main street filled with boutique shops, cafes, and eateries. The sun was already setting when we accomplished all the activities, so we already proceeded to the thermal resort. It has children focused swings which Elisse enjoyed, slides, and tunnels to pools with a range of temperatures.Summer, mommy, Elisse, and I went to a different pool from the boys.The warm water felt so relaxing, adding up to the relaxing, scenic view of our surroundings."Mommy, can I go to that slide thing again?" Elisse suddenly asked me."Huh? Sure, if you want to. I'll just ask Maggie and Eula to accompany you. Just make sure to behave and careful, okay?"She nodded her head with a smile on her face. "Yes, mommy!"I followed her with my eyes until I couldn't no longer see her. I was about to close my eyes to relax while dipping myse

    Winter's POV"Ah, I'm so glad that you agreed to go with us." Summer said with a smile on her face as soon as we arrived at the said meeting place.She organized a family trip, including me, Matthew, and Elisse. I actually wanted to refuse, but then Matthew convinced me and said that it would be a great time for us to bond with the whole family. Also, Elisse really wanted to go."Grandpa. Are you sure it's alright for you to travel?" I walked over to grandpa who was busy talking to Matthew. He smiled at me. "What do you think of your grandpa, an old hag who can't walk anymore?""It's not like that. I just—"Ah, come on. Stop worrying about me and just make sure you and your husband, together with your daughter, will have fun there.""Fine. We'll have some fun there. That's for sure.""Mommy! Is it going to snow there?!" Elisse asked me.I lifted her up in my arms. "Of course. That is why we brought sweaters and gloves with us. We are going to climb mountains and skate there.""Skatin

  • My Belittled Husband is a Billionaire   CHAPTER 114: LOOKS LIKE A COUPLE

    Ian's POVI couldn't help but ball my hands into fists whenever I see Winter and Matthew acting sweet with each other. Why is he acting like a gentleman when he's actually a jerk? It's so obvious that he and Belle had some past, but he acts as if he never cared about her or they never had a relationship. I mean, why would Belle react so much if they never had a relationship?"Don't make it too obvious that you're jealous. They might notice it, you know." I whispered to Belle while we were walking towards the booths. She glared at me. "I should be the one telling you that. You keep on frowning at Matthew even if he's not even doing anything. Also, the way you smile at Winter reveals everything already.""Oh, so you're jealous now? You're jealous because I smile a lot at her? Huh?" he suddenly said as he put his arm around my shoulders."And why would I even feel jealous? I don't care about anything you'll do, anyway. Can you remove your arms around my shoulders already?! It's annoying
