The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 14 - The Charge
"So, now you say you bought her? Even though not a minute ago you said that she is the woman you take care of very much." “Ha, this guy—” Dudley looked very contemn. "You indeed a bag of joke!" "And you also mentioned the price I have to pay in exchange for her. So, as I said before, stop talking about useless things and get straight to the point." Dudley was stunned by Alex's impudence. "You’re so arrogant, but—" He looked straight at Alex. "You're right! Nothing is more important than money. Especially about the money, as much as 200 million bucks." Dudley laughed, followed by his men. At the same time, Marlon could only wince slightly, which made him look like someone with a toothache. "Soo—" Dudley couldn't hide the greed on his face. "Would I be able to take my 200 million bucks, Sir Winter? It's about the time." "Aha." Alex took a grape from Dudley's plate and casually threw it into his mouth. "About that, there seems to be a problem." "Problem?" asked Dudley in an angry
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 15 - Curiosity
"That was the slightest thing I've ever seen, Miss Hawk. That was awesome!" They were returning to Alex's room, and Cassian Blake couldn't stop praising Nora Hawk's agility with Dudley Baker twenty minutes ago. "How can you be so calm when dealing with a loathsome man like him? Even I almost lost my patience listening to all his harsh words." "Calmness is part of professionalism, Mr. Blake." Nora Hawk answered dignified. "So I would appreciate it if you could be calmer. Do not forget that at this time, we are on duty to help Mr. Winter." Cassian Blake was stunned as he looked like a child his mother had just scolded. He then cleared his throat awkwardly. Alex snorted with laughter. He felt good, mainly since his business with Dudley Baker had settled down without a hitch. "Everything is going your way, Sir," said Cassian. "That old fart must have had no idea what plan you had prepared. It's perfect!" Alex just smiled while Nora Hawk rolled her eyes. Feeling that no one was inte
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 16 - Just a Bussiness
"I never said you couldn't see it, Miss Hawk." "Pardon, Sir?" "That agreement document, just look at it if you want to." For a moment, Nora still hesitated. But then she said, "Since you've given permission, I'll look over these documents in a moment, Sir." No one of them said a thing, so for a moment, there was only silence. Until then, Nora let out a choking sound. "Sir, this—" "Yes? Is there anything wrong?" "This agreement— Apologize, Sir, but I feel that this agreement is not right." "What do you mean, Miss Hawk? Which part do you think is not right?" "It's everything!" Nora answered in a louder voice than she intended. She then hastily added, "Sir." Alex raised an eyebrow, waiting for Nora to continue. "The contents of this agreement, I read it short in time, but all the points of the agreement only benefit one party. So, that's why I feel that this agreement is unfair, Sir." "Do you think so?" "Yes, Sir. For example, if the second party is declared unable to fulfil
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 17 - Money is King
‘Eventually, money is king.’ Elisha knew that money was the reason for everything that had happened to her yesterday. She never thought that money would be able to turn her life around like this. 'Not having much money turned out to be a real problem.' When she thought about it, Elisha laughed disparagingly at herself. She took a deep breath. Elisha stared at her reflection in the sink mirror, took a towel, then started drying her hair. She had just finished taking a shower and was only wearing a towel wrapped around her chest. She didn't find Alex when she woke, but she had to worry about nothing. Last night Alex had told her his plans for today, which was why he had left so early. "What if I run away right now?" She whispered. "I'm sure I'll be able to succeed. Once I'm on the flight back to Australia, I'll be safe." Elisha was sure that her friends and lecturers wouldn't mind helping her. After all, she could still work part-time while studying. "I will also contact uncle
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 18 - Dressed Up
In the blink of an eye, Alex almost kicked Cassian out of the room. He then slammed the door, locked it, and ignored the banging and questions Cassian asked behind the door. Nora looked at him in wonder, but fortunately, she didn't ask any questions. Even so, Alex could feel she was keeping an eye on him. "What are you doing?" Alex asked curiously. He pulled the sheet off as he walked, then used it to cover Elisha's body. "Why do you look like this?" Alex was speechless. He had just entered the room, followed by Cassian and Nora behind him, when he saw Elisha coming out of the bathroom. Alex cursed inside his heart. Seeing Elisha wearing only a towel with a wet body made one of her lower limbs react. Until then, he heard Cassian's voice greeting Elisha in a friendly tone, making him not think twice about expelling his assistant. "Why is that?" Elisha asked back. "What's wrong with me?" "Why are you only wearing a towel? Is walking around half-naked your hobby?" "I had just
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 19 - He's Weird
Cassian shifted gears and reduced the gas, so his car could stop smoothly when the red traffic light came on. "Miss Hawk, can I ask something?" He tapped his fingers on the steering wheel, glancing surreptitiously at the person sitting beside him in silence. "May or may not, didn't you ask first? So, what's the need to ask such a thing?" Cassian refrained from rolling his eyes. "I'm sorry, but there's something I'd like to know," he said, sounding slightly doubtful. "Is there something on your mind, Miss Hawk?" Nora, looking out the car window, now turned to look at him. "Of course," she answered. "I've got a lot on my mind, Sir Blake. I'm not an empty-headed man if that's what you mean." "That's not what I meant, Miss Hawk, but—" This time, Cassian had to hold back from letting out a heavy sigh. "Okay. I'm sorry. Forget it." He stopped to try to chat with Nora. The traffic light changed from red to green, and Cassian drove his car again. It had not been for long when he ga
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 20 - Ridiculous
"I'm sorry, but—" Cassian almost choked in among his laughs. "For heaven's sake, this is the most ridiculous thing I ever heard."Nora couldn't hide her disturbance. She snorted, and her lips curved downwards. "Forget it!""I would believe it more if you told me about the rabbit living on the moon than this one."Cassian keeps talking blatantly."Do you think Sir Alex might fall in love and do all this for Miss Foster? Oh, God. Yesterday was the first time they had met. Miss Hawk, I must admit you have quite the imagination."Now Nora's face looked both embarrassed and angry, but she said nothing."So, as I said—"Cassian cleared his throat.He decided to stop laughing to see how was Nora's expression. Her face looks like a traffic light that turns green to red, which would be dangerous for him."Sir Alex won't act on his feelings. For him, money and power are more important than anything else. After all, haven't you seen the evidence too?"Nora tingled her ears, alert for his words.
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 21 - She's Lovely
Elisha was wearing a champagne-colored dress with a drapery style. Her hair, as red as willow leaves, was deliberately left loose and adorned only with a simple but elegant butterfly-shaped pin made of gems and emeralds. She looked like a precious, refined young lady who grew up in a carefully attended greenhouse her whole life. Additionally, her calm and detached attitude, contrasting with her young and lovely-reddened face, made her look even more adorable. Alex looked at Elisha silently while he tried to hold his chuckle. "What?" Elisha asked in a slightly irritated tone. "Do I look weird?" Elisha held back her desire to glance in the mirror and check herself. Indeed, she had worn a dress before, but it was never as luxurious as the dress Alex gave her. So, she was worried that she would look ridiculous and not fit to wear it. "No," Alex said a few seconds later. "It suits you very well. You look so lovely." Alex wasn't just bragging. Such beauty that Elisha possessed was s

The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 124 - As Your Wish
'Alex gave me twenty million dollars to stop trying to contact you. He also put pressure on Dudley Baker with the help of a woman named Nora Hawk, if I remember correctly.' Elisha rubbed her sweaty forehead. She had never expected to hear such a thing. Alex had lied to her. He lied to her from the start. "If so, is it possible that everything he's said all this time is also a lie?" she whispered. "He said he loves me and that he needs me... Those are all lies?" Elisha's head throbbed painfully. Being in a relationship with someone who couldn't tell the difference between lying and not wasn't something Elisha could hope for. "Madame, are you all right?" "What?" "Since you were in prison earlier, you've been more silent." Elisha smiled faintly. "It's okay, sir Evan. I'm fine. But can you take me to my dad's? I want to see him." "Of course, madam. But don't forget that later you have lunch plans with Sir Alex in his office." "Ah, about that, I'll meet Alex with my family's dri
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 123 - After The Storm
After the storm, there will be a rainbow, which suits the current situation.Elisha woke to the morning sunshine. She stretched a little, enjoying the sensual feel of the sheet against her naked body. And she saw him.Alex was sitting in a chair near the window, wearing only his shorts, reading something on his cell phone. She came to him.Elisha climbed into his lap and curled herself against him as he wrapped her in his embrace."Good morning," she whispered.Alex put down his phone and looked at his wife intently.He felt the soft heat of her breast against his chest, the gentle touch of her hand on his cheek. He closed his eyes when her lips were soft against his as she kissed him."It's killing me," he said gruffly. "I feel like my sanity depends on you, Wife.""What?""My desire for you is a burden on my soul. I'm desperate for you. I want to have you completely. Your mind, your heart, and also your body. I want to have all of that, Wife.""Alex, I—""Would you believe me if I s
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 122 - Karma
It's been a month since Aeron's funeral.Today, Elliott decided to visit the graves of his wife and two sons.First of all, he visited Natasha's grave. There, Elliott spent half an hour recounting what had happened.He tells about Aramis, who is now in jail. Elliott also expressed his great disappointment towards Aramis, whom, although he was not his biological son, he had raised well."I feel guilty towards Aeron because all this time I hardly ever paid attention to him, Natasha," he said in a very low voice. "All this time, I thought of him as a useless child without me first trying to teach him well."Of course, Elliott's regrets didn't stop there. There was another, even greater regret he felt."Adrianus." He whispered. "Even though our son was innocent, I kicked him out cruelly. I never even wanted to meet him and his family, not until he and his wife died in an accident. Then, Natasha, do you know what more terrible things I have done?"Elliott looked at his wife's tombstone. Th
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 121 - Enemy of Your Enemy
"Sir, this— Is what you said just now true?"Harris Hilton's voice sounded so surprised. Not long after, he hurriedly apologized for speaking in such an exclamatory tone."That's right, Harris. Please keep this secret to yourself. My children can't find out just yet. I'm telling you this so that I don't explode.""But why? How could you keep something this big a secret even for so many years?""I had to, Harris! Do you think I would do it if I still had a choice? The Winter family's reputation is at stake, and there is no way out.""But, this— Excuse me, sir. I didn't think that—""My younger sister, Maura, attends a boarding school in Switzerland. But one day, she suddenly came home pregnant. We are, of course, shocked by a situation like that. Moreover, Maura didn't want to tell who the man who had made her pregnant was. She carried the secret even to the end. She died in childbirth."There was silence for a few moments until Harry finally found his voice again. "So how— Ah, apologi
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 120 - Traitor
Aeron's funeral took place on a beautiful day.The sky looks so blue, decorated with white clouds. The sun was shining brightly, and the air was refreshing. Truly a perfect day to spend on vacation.Alex frowned.This pleasant weather seemed to mock those who were grieving.Many people attended Aeron's funeral, including Diora, his ex-wife. Alex could see Diora standing a bit away and alone. She looked like she didn't want people to recognize her.Neither Pamela nor David accompanied Diora because Alex knew that his two cousins were with Elisha, his wife.Alex snorted in amusement while one corner of his lips pulled upwards.Now, he felt ridiculous about himself. It didn't feel long ago that he had been irritated that David was clinging to Elisha like a kitten following its mother everywhere.But now, Alex was grateful.He was grateful for having Elisha because it was thanks to his wife that his two cousins could be stronger through this terrible storm."Wife, I miss you.""I'm he
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 119 - The Horrible Night
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.Alex was sitting looking at Elisha, who was making up. All the movements that his wife did seemed to be inseparable from his pair of deep blue eyes.He watches her when Elisha looks up when wearing eyeliner or when her lips are slightly parted when Elisha applies lipstick, and he doesn't feel bored at all.This was crazy.Ever since Alex realized his feelings for Elisha, he didn't want to leave his wife. Even to go to work, he felt so lazy, whereas before, Alex was a workaholic. He didn't seem like he was, but surprisingly Alex didn't mind.This was weird."Is there something weird?""Pardon?""Alex, since earlier, you have been looking at me incessantly. So, what's wrong? Is there anything strange about my appearance?"He smiled. "I think you have caught me, Wife," he said.Alex approached Elisha, hugged her from behind, then rested his chin on Elisha's shoulder. He looked at himself and Elisha in the mirror and was amazed by how perfect th

"Of course, we'll come, Aeron. Don't worry. Anyway, please prepare lots of delicious food for us."Aeron heard a soft groan which was followed by a chuckle. He smiled, too, because he could imagine that on the other side of the call, Adrianus was being beaten by Willona."All right," he said with laughter. "See you tonight.""See you tonight. Oh, and Aeron.""Yes?""I'm glad you invited us. Thank you."Aeron was silent for a few moments. He, too, felt so moved.It had been quite some time since Adrianus had been chased out of the house by Elliot, and finally, tonight, they would gather again for dinner together."I feel happy too, Brother," he said then. "See you tonight."Their phone call finally ended. Aeron then informed Aramis that Adrianus and his family were coming. After that, he waited happily but impatiently for dinner.But in fact, everything ended not according to Aeron's expectations.That night Adrianus had an accident that killed him and his wife, Willona. And the dinne
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 117 - Such A Rollercoaster
Aeron was very shocked when he found out how Pamela was.His daughter needed treatment to remove all the effects of the drug in her body. On top of that, Pamela was clearly under a lot of mental stress.Aeron sat hunched over and covered his face with both hands.He was relieved already that David had regained consciousness after undergoing various treatments for the concussion he had. But now, he again felt worried about Pamela's condition."Oh, Lord. Why is everything getting messed up like this?"Aeron groaned and wailed. He felt that the happiness that he had, now shattered in the blink of an eye.Hadn't his life been nearly perfect all this time?Even though he is not the main heir in his family, Aeron has more than enough wealth. He has a magnificent house and all kinds of other luxuries.Aeron also has a beautiful wife and two children, a daughter, and a son.Her life is perfect. He has everything. But now, everything seemed to be turned upside down."Why am I going through all
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 116 - Shameless
In the quiet bedroom, only the sound of two people breathing could be heard.Elisha was breathing, calming down to an even pace, and Alex lowered his head, turned her body sideways, then wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her into his arms.He embraced her for a while, then covered her lips, eyes, and forehead with kisses."Alex, I think we should get up now.""Mmhh."Elisha laughed. Alex's kisses amused her."Stop it. Ha-ha. Alex, please. That’s ticklish.""Then, how about I make it not ticklish?""No! Alex, it's already morning.""We can still make it. Wife, there is plenty of time."Alex whispered, then bit her neck and left another hickey there.His hand stealthily slipped from her back to her waist, but Elisha twisted her body and naturally pushed his hand away.When the smooth sensation of her skin disappeared from his palm, he reached out stubbornly and grabbed her buttocks.This time, Elisha pushed away from his chest."Wife?""We can’t, Alex. Don't you have to go to w
