My Cold Billionaire 42. A Secret
Kimberly waited for the doctor while continuing to think about Marco's words in the hospital lobby. As she thought more about it, she became increasingly concerned about Opa Arthur's condition, which was understandably fragile. Kimberly knew that her grandfather suffered from a heart condition that could flare up at any moment. However, in her opinion, returning home at this moment was not the right choice. She was even determined that if the situation became urgent enough to require her to go back home, she would do her best to convince Opa Arthur to approve her relationship with Nicholas. Regardless, she had already fallen in love with him. Yes, even though Nicholas's feelings towards her were still unclear to this day. Lost in thought, Kimberly was suddenly jolted back to reality when the doctor arrived with the lab results she had been waiting for. Feeling a bit anxious, she moved closer to the doctor's practice desk. "So, how are my blood test results from yesterday, doc?" Kimb
My Cold Billionaire 43. Secret Admirer
Kimberly quietly enjoyed her dinner. Her mind wandered, and she had too much on her mind. It was the second day since Nicholas had left for abroad, yet he hadn't taken the initiative to contact her. Was Nicholas angry with her? It wasn't funny that she had to reach out to him first. "Am I the one being victimized here? I'm the one who's disappointed. Why am I the one being ignored? Ugh! So frustrating," Kimberly rolled her eyes, scrutinizing herself in an attempt to find any flaws within. "Am I not pretty enough that Nicholas truly sees me as not his type?" Kimberly sighed deeply, holding her cheeks. "Gosh, how perfect do I have to be for Nicholas to accept me?" She winced. But before she could finish her thoughts on Nicholas, another issue crossed her mind. Now, she was thinking about the diagnosis the doctor had given her yesterday. To recover, she needed a lot of money for surgery, and at the moment, she had only two options: returning home and seeking help from Grandpa Arthur o
My Cold Billionaire 44. Not Your Type
"Gosh!" Kimberly exclaimed in surprise when she saw the man she knew very well sitting on one side of her bed in her room. The man lifted his face and then turned to look at Kimberly, who was still standing quietly in front of the bathroom door. After a short while, Kimberly walked toward where the man was sitting. "Why are you here? Didn't you say you'd be back the day after tomorrow?" Kimberly asked, giving Nicholas a scrutinizing look. Instead of answering Kimberly's question, Nicholas's gaze shifted to an object that had caught his attention earlier. "Whose flowers are those?" Nicholas asked, nodding toward the lily bouquet that was lying on the nightstand. "How could you ask me that? Those are your flowers, aren't they?" Kimberly replied. Nicholas blinked. "My flowers?" He then shook his head, wearing a puzzled expression. "I sent you red roses, not lilies. This isn't a gift from me, Kimberly Rayder." Now, it was Kimberly's turn to be confused. If it wasn't Nicholas, then w
My Cold Billionaire 45. Please Forgive Me
Tears continued to flow from Kimberly's eyes. The day had turned into night, but she remained seated beside the closet, hugging her knees, releasing all the tears and disappointment that filled her heart. She wondered if she was so repulsive that Nicholas had never wanted to touch her. Or perhaps he had never desired her. "You're truly pathetic, Kimmy," she muttered. At the time when the doctor had diagnosed her with a life-threatening illness. At that very moment, the man she referred to as her fiancé seemed to want nothing to do with her. "You should know better." Kimberly let out a bitter laugh, mocking her fate. To this day, she realized that maybe she was the only one who loved Nicholas, and it was not reciprocated. "Damn the disease. Damn love. Why dwell on all this?" Kimberly wiped the tears from her cheeks and forced herself to stand. She steeled herself to forget the recent events. Shortly after, Kimberly decided to change her clothes, apply some light makeup, and hurr
My Cold Billionaire 46. Frustrating
This morning, Kimberly woke up with a very heavy head and a severe headache. Closing her eyes again, she remembered what she had done last night. She had consumed too much alcohol, to the point of passing out. "My head is pounding," she thought. "And who brought me home last night?" Kimberly sighed softly as she held her head. When she opened her eyes, she stared at the ceiling and realized she wasn't in her own room. Turning to the side, she found Nicholas peacefully asleep. For a moment, she was captivated and continued to gaze at Nicholas's face. She wanted to caress his face but refrained from doing so. After gathering her strength, Kimberly slowly slipped out of bed and left the room. Meanwhile, when Nicholas woke up, he realized Kimberly was no longer beside him. He chose to let it be, got up, took a shower, and prepared to leave for work. Entering the dining room, he found Kimberly already sitting and having breakfast. She looked much better than she did the night before. I
My Cold Billionaire 47. No One Take Kimberly
Kimberly was enjoying lunch with Alex and Keyra in the cafeteria. It had been a long time since she had seen her two friends. Back then, not a day went by without her spending time with them. "I thought after becoming Mr. Alistair's fiancée, you wouldn't want to be friends with us anymore, Kimmy," Alex teased. He was waiting to see how Kimberly would respond. Kimberly chuckled softly. "I apologize for being so busy lately. You both know our office has a lot of deadlines to meet." "So, how's your relationship with Mr. Nicholas? Is it getting better? You haven't talked about it at all lately," Keyra now threw the question. Kimberly didn't respond immediately. She chose to take a sip of the green tea freeze she had ordered first. "I don't know, honestly. I don't know how long this relationship will last. I thought, after becoming Mr. Ice King's fiancée, I could easily melt his heart. But it's beyond my expectations. He's really hard to thaw. I'm sure that up to this moment, he still h
My Cold Billionaire 48. Love You kimmy
Nicholas exited the room and found that Kimberly was not at her desk. He had intended to invite her to lunch, hoping to mend their relationship, which seemed to be hanging in the balance. However, it seemed like he was too late because the person he was looking for had disappeared, and he had no idea where she had gone. Curious, Nicholas attempted to contact Kimberly on her phone. Unfortunately, after several tries, her number appeared to be inactive. It briefly crossed his mind that Kimberly might be in Alex and Keyra's office as usual. With confidence, Nicholas proceeded to their office. However, even there, he couldn't find Kimberly. Eventually, he coincidentally crossed paths with Andrew, who was the finance division supervisor. "Can I assist you, Mister?" Andrew asked when he noticed Nicholas standing around, looking puzzled in front of the office. Nicholas turned his face away. "I'm looking for Kimberly. There's an agenda I need to discuss with her urgently. I thought she was
My Cold Billionaire 49. You're Silly
The chill in the meeting room temperature didn't affect Kimberly in the slightest. In fact, she felt increasingly warm as time went on. It wasn't for any particular reason; she just didn't feel like dealing with clients today, especially those who seemed so intentionally seeking Nicholas and Edward's attention. Claudia Rosselinni, beautiful with blue eyes and wavy brown hair, stood tall and slender, making her seem more suited for a modeling career. She was around 28-29 years old and the only child of a conglomerate with interests in gold and oil mining from Singapore. She had recently planned to invest $250 million USD, equivalent to 3 trillion Indonesian rupiahs, in a condotel and resort development project in the Maldives. Seeing this as a golden opportunity, Nicholas and Edward did their utmost to ensure that the memorandum of understanding (MOU) for collaboration would proceed smoothly and quickly. That's why they had been discussing the project details since morning, aiming to

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%. Nicholas and Kimberly couldn't believe how meticulously and perfectly Cassandra had arranged everything. 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.
My Cold Billionaire 83. Damn!
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
My Cold Billionaire 81. Flashback (2)
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
