My Cold Billionaire 19. Request
"So, you threatened her?" Edward asked while accepting a glass of wine that Nicholas handed to him. Tonight, for some reason, Nicholas had asked Edward to come to his apartment. Nicholas nodded. "I didn't know what else to do to make her comply. Just so you know, she isn't afraid after I threatened her." Edward sighed. "You really are clueless, Nick! If there's a woman who refuses to help you, that doesn't mean you should threaten her. You should try persuading her, Nicholas Alistair!" Edward couldn't fathom Nicholas's thought process. When it came to wooing women, both Nicholas and Kenzi were equally terrible. It seemed like Edward needed to give them a free course on winning women's hearts. "So, what should I do?" Nicholas asked, sounding genuinely lost. "Why are you being so foolish, Nick? If Kimberly still refuses you tomorrow, you should try begging her a little," Edward advised. "B-but..." "Don't overthink it. If necessary, you should even try to charm her. When women say

Nicholas hurriedly entered the Bengawan Restaurant on the first floor of Keraton Residence. From a distance, his eyes caught sight of a woman he knew well, enjoying the night view from behind the restaurant's window. Before approaching, Nicholas observed the woman from afar for a moment. His mind was still full of questions. What was the reason his secretary was suddenly so insistent on staying in his apartment? Even now, Kimberly was still wearing her work clothes, indicating she hadn't returned to her place yet. This only made Nicholas wonder even more about what Kimberly was hiding or planning. "Is the view outside so captivating that you didn't notice my presence?" Nicholas asked as he took a seat in the restaurant. Kimberly suddenly realized and shifted her gaze to where Nicholas was sitting. "The view here is beautiful, I like it." Nicholas crossed his arms. "So, explain everything to me!" Kimberly raised one of her eyebrows. "Explain what? I think I've already told you ever
My Cold Billionaire 21. Living Together
Kimberly woke up from her sleep after feeling a pain in her stomach. She gently rubbed it until the pain gradually subsided. She could have gone back to sleep, but she thought it was already five in the morning, so she decided to get up and head straight to the bathroom. After finishing her shower and getting dressed, Kimberly tiptoed her way to the kitchen. She just didn't want to make any noise that might disturb Nicholas's sleep. He had scolded her enough the night before. She couldn't bear to hear him grumble again so early in the morning. Kimberly paused in one corner of the kitchen island. "Let's see," she thought, "Is his supply of groceries complete?" Then she reached out and began opening the drawers in the refrigerator, contemplating what to cook for breakfast. "What should I cook?" she pondered. "I don't even know Nicholas's taste in food." Kimberly stood in front of the fridge for quite some time before finally deciding to make toast with eggs and bacon. Even though she

Marco sat in his office chair while reading the report file given by Joseph, his confidant. For the last year or so, he had assigned someone to observe and investigate Kimberly's movements while out there. "Young Miss Sanjaya doesn't live in her house anymore. It's been about two weeks since she moved to the Apartment." Marco furrowed his brows, but his gaze didn't move from the file in front of him. "Are you sure she lives there now? I thought you guys would have a harder time keeping an eye on her. As I recall, the apartment really couldn't be entered by just anyone." Joseph nodded. "But there's something important you should know too, and Miss Kimberly doesn't live there alone." Marco's gaze shifted. He looked at Joseph's face questioningly. "What do you mean? Who does she live with?" "Your fiancee lives with the CEO of AlpaBeta now." Marco smiled wryly after hearing Joseph's words. "So Kimberly lives under the same roof as Nicholas Alistair?" Joseph nodded. "Since moving i
My Cold Billionaire 23. In your Dream
Nicholas had just driven his car away from the Keraton Residence. This morning, he chose to drive himself without the assistance of Randy, his personal driver. Luckily, today was unlike the usual; the city streets appeared so empty that it made it easy for him to reach his destination quickly. The song "Thinking out Loud" by Ed Sheeran played softly throughout the journey to the office. Beside him, Kimberly seemed to be enjoying the song while gazing out of the window. Her eyes didn't blink as she watched the morning traffic hustle by. So engrossed was she that she didn't notice Nicholas sneak glances at her several times. After parking their car neatly, Kimberly and Nicholas hurriedly got out and walked side by side into the building's lobby. There, some employees whispered while keeping a close eye on their every move. Unlike Nicholas, who appeared indifferent, Kimberly felt a bit awkward. She didn't like the fact that some employees kept staring at her. "If you're still not feeli
My Cold Billionaire 24. Dinner
Kimberly thoroughly enjoyed the dinner that the maids had prepared for her. Among the numerous options on the menu, she chose tofu stew and shrimp dim sum to savor. It was no secret that she preferred Chinese food over Western cuisine. Seated across from her was Mario, equally engrossed in his dinner. He had been at Kimberly's house since this afternoon, as they always spent their weekends together. Typically, they would go out for a stroll, but for some reason, Grandpa Arthur had insisted they stay home today. There seemed to be something important he wanted to discuss. Amid their mealtime activities, Arthur approached them. He took a seat at the head of the table and sipped the green tea specially prepared for him. "Finish your meals, you two. There's something I need to talk to you about." Kimberly averted her gaze. "What's the matter that's so important, Grandpa?" Arthur nodded. "It's very important." Meanwhile, as Kimberly continued eating, Mario decided to put down his fo

Kimberly repeatedly checked her reflection in the mirror. She tried to see if there was anything lacking in her appearance this time. After careful consideration, everything seemed just right, not too much or too little. Yes, this is more than perfect, isn't it? Don't be nervous, Kimberly. Just think of it as a meeting with a big client. Yes, let's just think of it that way. Kimberly kept repeating these thoughts to herself until the door to her room was knocked from the outside. "Just a moment," Kimberly replied. Quickly, she grabbed her black handbag from the nightstand and made her way to open the bedroom door. There stood Nicholas, waiting for her. "Are we leaving now?" Kimberly asked. For a moment, Nicholas seemed taken aback by what he saw. "You can be beautiful too, I see," he praised. "Of course, and I'm sure one day you'll fall in love with me for real," Kimberly replied sarcastically. Nicholas chuckled at Kimberly's response. "Oh, really? That means you'll have to
My Cold Billionaire 26. Call Me Mama
Early in the morning, Nicholas and Edward were already engaged in a crucial discussion. Both of them were seriously discussing the expansion of land and the addition of buildings to the existing Resort in the Maldives, Maldives. The popularity of the Maldives as a romantic tourist destination has been skyrocketing, especially since photos of its natural beauty have been circulating on social media. The country, located southwest of India, is often considered one of the luxury travel destinations. To explore the Maldives with its thousands of islands and dozens of coral islands worth exploring, one needs to allocate a substantial budget. That's why Nicholas didn't want to miss this opportunity to expand the Hotel and Resort network under the Alpha Beta umbrella. Countless resorts and even private islands were under his management, left behind by Kenzi when he went to England. Looking at the rapid progress of the company under his leadership, Nicholas might have reason to be proud. Eve

The next two months."Nick, I think you should come home soon. Your face looks really pale now," Edward suggested. They had just returned from a meeting outside the office.Nicholas sighed deeply while continuing to massage his temples. For some reason, since yesterday, he had been feeling unwell. Now, it even felt worse than before."I can't, Ed. I need to finish my tasks soon. I have only a week left before I really move from Alpha Beta and take care of Rayder Corp," Nicholas replied, still holding his forehead.Edward shook his head vigorously. He was very certain that his friend's condition was not okay at the moment. He was just afraid that something bad might happen to Nicholas."In that case, I'll get you some hot tea." Edward then got up and walked quickly to the pantry. He grabbed a cup of tea and brought it immediately to Nicholas's room, handing it over."Drink it quickly. After this, I'll help you finish all your tasks so you can go home early."Nicholas nodded and reached

After returning from London, Kimberly and Nicholas were busy with various wedding preparations. From fitting wedding attire to pre-wedding photos, everything had to be done quickly due to their limited time. Cassandra and Arthur didn't hold back; they even chose BVLGARI RESORT BALI as the venue for the celebration.BVLGARI is a luxurious five-star resort perched on a cliff overlooking the Indian Ocean. Its location is not far from Pura Luhur Uluwatu and the Garuda Wisnu Kencana Cultural Park.Embracing a beachfront wedding theme, all preparations had reached 95%.

She even hired a top-tier wedding organizer like 'Belvedere' to handle Nicholas and Kimberly's wedding."Mama is truly amazing," Nicholas said proudly. He was amazed by what his mother had done.Cassandra clasped her hands to her chest, a smile on her lips as she heard her son's praise."I'll do anything for you, my dear.

All the invited guests never ceased to congratulate Nicholas and Kimberly. Everyone seemed lost in the euphoria of this luxurious engagement party.While all the guests were busy enjoying their meals, Nicholas, who was watching Cassandra relaxing, went straight to her and pulled her to the garden's edge."Mom owes me an explanation," Nicholas whispered.Cassandra chuckled softly, keeping her composure. "Oh, come on, dear. Just enjoy your party for now. I promise to explain everything once everything's over."Nicholas shook his head in disbelief, observing his mother's behavior. Meanwhile, in a different location, Kimberly also looked puzzled. She chose to remain silent but kept her facial expression looking joyful. Yes, even though she was genuinely surprised and, of course, happy. However, amidst all this, she hadn't even exchanged a word with Nicholas. The two of them mostly just stared at each other without speaking.After the guests left one by one, Cassandra kept her promise. She
My Cold Billionaire 82. Big Surprise
Since morning, Kimberly has been busy packing her belongings to put them in her suitcase. After hearing Arthur Rayder's explanation about Nicholas last night, she decided to join the man in London as soon as possible.Enjoying the packing process, Kimberly suddenly remembered that she didn't remember Nicholas's address or his parents' addresses. After thinking for a while, she realized who had helped her gather the information.Quickly, Kimberly grabbed her cellphone, searched for someone's number in her contacts list, and dialed it promptly. After three rings, the call was finally answered."Hello," a voice on the other side replied."Hello, Mr. Edward. It's me, Kimberly. Can I ask for your help?" Kimberly inquired."Oh my goodness, Kimberly," Edward exclaimed in surprise. "What's the reason for calling me so early in the morning?""Can I... Can I ask about Nicholas's address in London?" Kimberly hesitantly asked."Of course, you can. But, I'm sorry in advance, why are you asking for

Arthur remembered well that Veronica, his wife, had been very active in charity work. Then, at some point, she accidentally met Cassandra, a young woman who had dedicated half of her life to helping street children and orphans. They both worked together to provide assistance until the time when Cassandra, by chance, met Robert Alistair, who was working in Singapore at that time. He also became the largest donor for the charity event organized by Veronica.Somehow, at some point, Cassandra developed a relationship with Robert Alistair and decided to get married. After becoming husband and wife, Robert brought Cassandra with him to England. Since then, Veronica and Arthur rarely met Cassandra. It was only occasionally when she was traveling to Singapore.Arthur reached for the teacup already placed on his table. He took a sip and continued speaking. "So, what brings you all the way here to meet me?"Cassandra took her own drink, sipped it slowly, and then placed her cup back on the tabl

Mario never seemed tired of smiling at all the guests who attended. His face was radiant after formally getting engaged just a few hours ago.Arthur was also delighted. The old man was even busy socializing with the business colleagues who were present at the party.Among the many happy people, only Kimberly seemed ordinary. She even appeared distant from the crowd, choosing to sit alone in one corner of the event room while continuously gazing at Mario from a distance.She should have felt relieved because she wasn't the one accompanying Mario tonight. Yes, a few days ago, Kimberly almost couldn't breathe when he suddenly brought up the topic of engagement. She thought that her grandfather, Arthur, was really going to arrange a match between them. However, Mario revealed that he would be engaged to another woman."So, is Grandpa really going to arrange a match between us?" Mario didn't immediately answer. He remained silent for quite a while, which only made Kimberly's thoughts wande

For the translated text in American English with correct grammar, please see below:"For the past two days, Arthur had been observing Kimberly, who seemed so gloomy. The woman went to work listlessly and returned home in silence. Usually, Kimberly always had something to share with him, whether it was work-related issues or just casual conversations about her daily life.Curious, that evening, Arthur finally asked Mario when the two of them had just returned from the office. He was convinced that Mario knew what was happening with his granddaughter lately."Is there something you want to talk to me about?" Mario asked while they were in Arthur's office.Arthur, who was engrossed in reading a book, paused. He first took off his glasses and then placed the book he had been holding aside."Have a seat," Arthur instructed. "There's something I want to ask you."Mario complied with Arthur's request, taking a seat right next to the elderly man."What does grandpa want to ask about?""About

"I choose Alpha Beta," Arthur Rayder stared at Nicholas with an expression that was difficult to interpret after hearing what the man had chosen. He remained silent for quite some time before finally smiling and asking, "Are you sure you chose Alpha Beta over my granddaughter?"Nicholas nodded. "I'm sure. Very sure. Congratulations, in this game, you're the winner."Arthur squinted at Nicholas. There were many things he wanted to ask the man."As I suspected. You never really loved my granddaughter. It was quite evident when you chose money over—""You shouldn't jump to conclusions," Nicholas interrupted. Arthur glared at him. He didn't appreciate it when someone deliberately cut him off mid-sentence.Arthur sighed in his position. "Then what's your reason for not choosing Kimberly?"Nicholas took a slow breath. It wasn't easy making a decision like this."I love Kimberly. There's no other woman I love besides your granddaughter. However, I can't be selfish. I thought that if I cancel

Arthur was sitting casually in his office, looking at the neatly arranged photos of Kimberly in an album. Mario was there, accompanying the old man. He had been asked to come early in the morning, even though it was a holiday. Arthur wondered what he wanted to talk to Mario about.Arthur smiled as he commented, "Kimberly is such a cheerful girl. Look, in almost all these neatly arranged photos, she's always laughing or smiling." Arthur showed a specific photo to Mario.Mario looked at each photo that Arthur displayed. Kimberly appeared in various poses in the pictures. Mario nodded in agreement."In all the time I've known her, I've only seen Kimberly cry twice. First, when she found out her mother had passed away. Second, when she decided to leave Nicholas Alistair's apartment."Arthur leaned back in his chair. Hearing Mario's last sentence made his blood boil."That brat had the audacity to make my granddaughter cry. Who is he, daring to do such a thing?""They just had a misunderst
