★★

Julia dashed to the ground floor, straight to the main door but it was locked. She tried to pull the door with all her might but couldn't able to do so. At that moment, Julia heard gunshots one after another, causing her heart to drop to her stomach, and her feet turned cold.

Joshua was the only name that sprang to her mind. With her hand, she repeatedly slammed the door.

When the fear groped her heart, she became vulnerable.

“Timothy, opened the door, Dammit!” Julia yelled, with tears in the corner of her eyes.

“Marry me, and I will let him go,” Timothy said from behind. Julia turned around, balling her fists with her eyes dripping with anger.

“Be a human. I don't want to marry anyone, neither I love anybody,” Julia bellowed at Timothy. No matter how much she pretended to disagree with what her heart felt, she knew how deeply she was drawn to Joshua.

“Then let him die, I have offered to be your son's father,” Timothy said and walked up to her.

“Fuck you,” Julia swore and h

    ★★★With a quick turn of his head in Stacy's direction, he stepped nearer to her.“Don’t come too close or I’ll shoot you,” Stacy warned Timothy while pointing a revolver at him."You can't do any more harm to someone already dead," Timothy yelled, tears of regret, rage, and anguish flowing from his eyes. “You destroyed me and my relationship,” he said.“I don’t want to hurt you. Please don’t make me shoot you.” Stacy’s voice faltered as she spoke, and her finger on the trigger quivered as she lost the strength to shoot Timothy because she was brought here by Madam to assassinate Julia. No matter how much she was furious at Timothy for choosing Julia again, she did love Timothy insanely.“Stacy put down the weapon. Let's have a conversation,” Julia screamed, fearing to see blood. “It’s you, Julia. It’s always you. You should have died long ago,” Stacy said with watery eyes and pulled the trigger at Julia.“No,” Timothy screamed, and it was too late to say no to a bullet, as it

  • One night stand with a Billionaire   Joshua's engagement

    ★★★ Joshua dropped her off close to the main entrance gate before disappearing. She was in his safe domain, so he could rest. While none of them had publicly admitted their feelings for the other, they had already done so within. Julia walked with sluggish feet but abruptly realized there were two black cars parked in front of the door. She managed her anxiety by supposing that nobody from outside the villa could enter. She entered quickly, her clothes stained with blood, but she had no choice but to confront them with her skeptical perspective. An elderly voice greeted Julia as she took one step inside and she heard, "I have been waiting for you, Miss Julia." When Julia gazed at the person in the wheelchair, his unfriendly glare prevented her from smiling at him. So she inquired, "Have we met anywhere?" while grimacing. "I always care about the status of a people, and you shouldn't even touch a single line of that status," the old person said, “Therefore, the response is no. I

    ★★★“You must not lose your temper, grandfather. You cannot force your blood pressure to increase,” Rosetta yelled and flung herself at the elderly man in the wheelchair. She approached Joshua’s grandfather from behind and placed a hand on his shoulder.“You must not want your doctor to put you on house rest again. Do you?” Rosetta said to Grandfather lovingly.“Even without intending to, this girl’s inability to comprehend fundamental concepts due to her insatiable want for money has caused my blood pressure to rise significantly. Joshua is my grandson and he will do whatever I want,” Joshua’s grandfather yelled loudly while pointing at Julia, who felt as though her pride had been taken away.“Grandpa, Miss Julia is a decent young lady. I am acquainted with her, so if she is being reluctant, Joshua and she must have set some ground rules, I believe. Simply because we like him, we shouldn’t treat her in this harsh way,” Rosetta said to Joshua’s grandfather, supporting Julia, who w

    ★★★After noticing Joshua's arrogant attitude, Benjamin responded, "That was a mistake made by my employees; otherwise, you will not be able to lay your hands on that property."“If you can identify the Madam, I'll purchase you another property,” Joshua offered while exhaling smoke. He was a little restless.His pounding heart was repressing the desire to return and formally propose to the woman for marriage.For the first time in his life, he felt fantastic being taken care of by someone, but it shouldn't be for just one day. He knew she felt the same way about him. Hence, for the rest of his life, he wanted it.“In the underworld, there isn't a woman by the name of Madam. Someone who knows you and doesn't want Julia to be with you, just like I do, must be responsible,” Benjamin muttered while tugging the corner of his mouth upward, knowing that the tranquil nature would soon erupt as a volcano.He wanted to see Joshua furious once more. It was interesting to watch.“Except fo

    ★★★“Well, I'm left in my old age to witness this,” Joshua's grandfather yelled in a disheartened tone, "Go ahead, pull the trigger, and shoot us dead."Because there had never been a time before today when Joshua would have needed to point a gun at him. His grandson became such an ungrateful person entirely because of that woman. Throwing the woman out of the house was a wise decision on his part.“Why are you doing this? If it is not her, then I will not have anyone in my life,” Joshua ululated as he keep reminding himself this was his grandfather and he could not shoot him anyway.“You are no longer a youngster in need of some comforting words. I make a bargain with you like you constantly do with others. It is now up to you to decide whether you want your mother's letter or the girl who can be replaced by anyone,” Joshua's grandfather firmly said. He had to be heartless to guide him on the right path.Rosetta, who had been motionless there like a statue, eventually raised her

    ★★“This, boss, will put a schism between you two. And from what I've observed so far, Miss Julia is a prideful woman. She won't give you a second chance, even if you bend your head to her feet." Artin warned Joshua, who was unable to resist smoking cigarettes.Joshua had been desperate about everything since Julia stepped into his life, and now he realized that everything about her made him unfocused and filled his head with dread.The feeling of not having her alongside him crept on the surface but scraped deep inside. Joshua grumbled, "Shoot the woman on the head as soon as I put the ring on her finger."Artin's heart jumped up when Joshua sounded cruel. Furthermore, they had never killed an innocent woman, and Rosetta Gussle was also Joshua's grandfather's favorite. It would bring more chaos into their life.“It won't have a good effect on Miss Julia, I believe. She will never desire to assert her rights by killing an innocent person,” Artin predicted. Artin turned his face t

  • One night stand with a Billionaire   Epilogue

    Six months later ★★★ Like a royal palace, the villa had been garlanded with blooms. An uproar could be heard everywhere. One after another, upscale cars could be seen pulling up. A wedding took place in the garden. People were seated in two rows that had been partitioned, and the bride and groom would stand on a stunningly garish stage. Gary and Artin accompanied Joshua to the stage while waiting for the bride. Joshua was anxious despite his best efforts to appear confident. Julia had stated that she would consider getting married after having their second kid, but after putting up with so much of his intransigence, she finally gave in. It didn't take long for Julia to show up at the location with her father, hooking her hand around his arm. She looked ethereal in a white gown, and her baby bulge could be seen peeking out. Not to be forgotten, Julius was chosen to carry the rings. The admiration in people's eyes for Julius was unavoidable. They were all cheering an

    ★★★Julia's eyes grew brighter as she exited the car and as the lights on the villa came on as if the festival were at the door.“Wow! What is this?” Asked Julia, turning her attention to Joshua who pushed her skirt's wrinkly corner downward.To ensure she wouldn't accidentally move it, her left hand was bound to her shoulder.“Humph! They decided to do something to make you feel welcome."Joshua told her, his gaze drawn to her stunned expression. He didn't imagine she would enjoy this juvenile nonsense. Otherwise, he would light up the building for the rest of their lives.“It is too much,” Julia mumbled and stepped up toward the vast entrance of the hall room. She heard no sound of her people, but she could definitely tell they were hiding to surprise her.As soon as she entered, she could hear shouting in all directions.“Welcome, Julia!!” Sussan shouted, followed by Julius, “Welcome, Mum!”Julia smiled brightly while revealing her teeth. After scanning everyone, she stopp

    ★★★Julia smiled as she waited for the door to close, then turned to face Joshua. “How can you deliberately hurt a child?” she questioned, her eyes shooting anger at Joshua, who sliced her words with an uncaring attitude.He leaned forward and placed a kiss on her lips.“ I suddenly feel like we haven’t enjoyed much time together,” Joshua whispered, then went up to her forehead and placed a loving kiss there.“I love you, Julia.”With an unexpected wind spin sensation entering her gut, Julia stiffened. On the surface of her heart, a tiny deer was prancing. Before today, she had no idea how enthralled by his revelation she would become; she was not only delighted but also over the moon.Joshua’s warm breath fell on Julia’s face as they both fixed their gaze on one other, their hearts were thumping in the protracted quiet.The powerful impulses in Julia’s heart caused her to blink more often than usual.

    ★★★As soon as they arrived at the hospital, Julia was rushed straight to the surgery room. Julius had moved onto the specialty ward as well. Gary and Artin had been holding Joshua back, but they soon felt Joshua collapse to the seat.They experienced a day that let them understand what it was like to lose someone. The pain of compulsion was so hazardous!But God could not be cruel to them.★★★One Week LaterJulia was transported to a garden with a pleasant floral aroma. Her eyes were mesmerized by the beauty of the newly blooming flowers, and although she was unable to say their names, this did not detract from her enjoyment. She crossed her legs as she sat on a lovely cushion.With a deep inhale, Julia murmured,“ It's magnificent."The warm sun penetrated her flesh as it cut the cold from her soul, making Julia feel alive and refreshed.Suddenly a gentle voice flowed into her ears, “Mum.”"Mum!"Julia was compelled to listen for the gentle voice. She was familiar with th

    ★★★ Joshua was being closely followed by Artin and Gary in the back, but suddenly, they were being yanked back by ropes around their throats. As they battled to breathe, the rifles in their hands fell to the ground. Joshua, on the other hand, forced himself up off the ground and jerked his head. Although there was little light, he could feel a stinging pain in his browbone. He had a steady gaze, focused on that person. In contrast, a gaslight turned on and a familiar face emerged. The man said, “Remember me, boss.” “Snake!” Joshua exclaimed. “Nice to meet you. So, you are working for a woman now. Suits you,” Joshua mocked and launched forward with his tight fist that landed on that man’s nose. Prior to being kicked out of the organization for defrauding Joshua of his business, Snake had previously been working with them. “I’ve been itching to kill you for a while. The day finally came. Oh, yes, I need to tell you,” the man smirk with his bloody nose and continued, “I vented all

    ★★★Joshua entered the house through the door that was already open, but even if it hadn't been, it wouldn't have made much of a difference because he wouldn't have bothered if he had to smash it. But as he entered and bumped into the bleeding body, his feet shook. There was blood all over the floor; it was impossible to tell if it was this man’s or if something had occurred to Julia and his son.“Boss, this, Miss Julia’s jewelry, and her handbag were discovered outdoors. Someone might,” Artin said and entered, but he was not required to finish the rest. He could see that his presumption was accurate. They were clearly taken by someone.Gary proclaimed, “I told it, we ought to assassinate Benjamin.”For the first time, Gary spoke about a subject on his own initiative rather than following instructions because he was aware of the significance Miss Julia and her son had for Joshua.“No, the perpetrator of this action cannot be Benjamin. He wants the boss to be at his disposal, but

    ★★★ Joshua exhibited childlike excitement as though he was about to receive his preferred surprise. His eyes were fixating on the image of the mother and son in his hand. In the picture, their smiles were beaming like the brightest sunshine of his life. He was simply angry with Julia for not telling him once, and that was it. Because Joshua was longing to have a child with her, but in reality, they already had one and Julia hid it. “Oh, Julia!! I will kill you. You deserve the harshest punishment!” Joshua thought but could not able to remove the smile from his lips. He held the picture close to his chest and ordered, “Drive faster!” Gary and Artin both nodded in tandem before accelerating the car. ★★ After absorbing such news, people in the mansion had already left. But they could not able to digest the entire occurrence, which hadn't made it to their stomachs; instead, it had stuck to their throats. Joshua's grandfather could not help but yearn to see his great-grandson's face.

    ★★★ In his black outfit, Joshua resembled a magnificent angel. He could still kill thousands of women's hearts while maintaining a straight face, but within he was unhappy since the message came from her. It made him shatter. His heart felt as heavy as a stone that had been purposefully placed, and both hands clasped their fists in his pockets. He held onto the hope that Julia wouldn't buy all this, or at the very least, would wait for him to explain it to her. But when he read her icy text, he was speechless. Rosetta, dressed in a lovely pink gown, appeared at Joshua's side. Her friends and relatives were with her. There were a few people present, but no media. However, everybody who attended the party could sense that the atmosphere was somber rather than cheerful. It did not feel like a celebration. While pretending to be having fun and smiling at one other, sipping on their drink, some people were actually forcing their feet to stay put since they couldn't get away. Howev
