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 22 - A Hard Time
Alex just looked at her and didn't come closer at all, but just his appearance made her nervous. "But I also don't mind seeing you are wearing my chosen dress," Alex smirked and spoke softly. Nora had indeed returned to the hotel room with several dresses Elisha had chosen, while Cassian still had to wait outside the room. Elisha still hasn't decided which dress she will wear, but Alex has already chosen the champagne-colored dress she is currently wearing. As it wasn't enough, Alex even chose jewelry, bags, and other accessories for her. 'If I didn't protest earlier, maybe he would also choose which underwear for me to wear.' Elisha grumbled inwardly. 'But this is so weird. Why don't I hate him?' Alex drew closer. Elisha closed her eyes to calm herself down. But then, she was surprised when Alex grabbed her waist. "What are you—" "I like this dress, especially the strap accent," Alex added in a voice that sounded even lower. "If I pull this rope until the knot is released,
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 23 - Comfort
Elisha had to laugh."No," she answered. "At least, for now. I don't have any lover. I only want to go back to living my life as usual. Study and meet friends. Well, that sort of thing."Alex remained silent. Elisha, who did not know what was going through his head, only made a curious expression."For how long?""Pardon?""How long are you going to pay off that 200 million bucks, Elisha? I have to wait until when? Let me know the deadline.""Tha—that—""Do you have any detailed strategy to return the money to me? The specialties like 'what, how, when, where, and who,' have you thought about all that?"Elisha blinked. She, indeed, had no idea."I don't need the money."Now she felt looked like hearing a strange noise."But Alex, that's 200 million dollars worth of money.""Yeah? So?""How can you say you don't need it? It sounds no different like you want to throw it to rubbish.""It's because when you pay it off, the monetary value will fall. So, it's useless for me. I still suffer t
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 24 - A Generous Husband
Once more, there was silence between them. Too many thoughts crowded Elisha's turbulent mind."Don't forget about all the things I told you earlier."It was surprising. After twenty more minutes had passed, Alex's voice finally broke the silence."Sure. I do.""Remember our deal, Elisha. Your existence is to support me."Elisha nodded. She was surprised by all the things Alex had told her earlier, but she could still clearly remember them.Alexander Winter is the eldest grandson in the Winter family. His late father, Adrianus, was the second son of Elliott Winter, the current head of the Winter family.Alex's position in his family is not strong and is not recognized because Elliott never approves of his parent's marriage.Elliott is very against it when Adrianus decides to marry Willona Garcia, a woman who only works as an erotic dancer in a bar. Even Alexander was once doubted as a descendant of the Winter family. They accused Willona of being pregnant with another man and framed
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 25 - The Winter Estate
Winter Estate is the primary residence of the Winter family. The building locates on 40 hectares of land and has 29 bedrooms, 39 bathrooms, three swimming pools, four libraries, one artificial lake, a helipad, a tea house, and a private power supply. From the entrance gate to the primary residence, it will take at least fifteen minutes to drive. Along the entrance on either side is a garden decorated with various kinds of trees so that it looks more like a small forest. "Good grief. Is this the main gate?" Elisha could barely keep her mouth from gaping too wide. "It's ... huge." Alex just glanced at her and smiled. Their car stopped in front of a giant and sturdy gate, and there were at least five people in black suits standing on either side of it. Two stood in the middle, and another walked closer to Alex. "Good afternoon, Sir Alexander," The man greeted with a stiff attitude. "Please wait a moment while we check your vehicle first." Elisha gave a questioning glance. Why was
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 26 - Innocence
Elisha never really knew about the Winter family before. Occasionally she did hear the names of several family members in the news, but even then, only in passing. But after listening to Alex's story while they were still in the hotel room, Elisha decided to learn more about this family. The Winter family has many businesses in various fields, such as automotive, electronics, heavy industry, food, and beverage. It was one of the companies which reached out to all aspects of the business, with current revenue to be predicted at 300 trillion dollars, plus the operating profit hit at 30 trillion dollars, furthermore. The scale of Winter's company had already been enormous. But, as Alex said earlier, all the extraordinary achievements just now are not at all comparable to the attitude of his family members. As the situation Elisha was facing. She took a deep breath. Elisha and Alex had just gotten out of the car, but they already felt no one expected their presence. There were c
The Billionaire's Entrapment Chapter 27 - Bad to Worst
Elisha felt like she had underestimated the situation too much. The circumstances she had encountered from the outside earlier were utterly incomparable to the current reaction with which she had to deal. "Why were you late? Have you still not gotten rid of your old bad habits?" Elisha's heart seemed to be going to jump into her throat because she was so shocked. It hadn't been half a minute since she and Alex had set foot in this living room, and a woman with copper-colored hair immediately greeted them with a harsh tone and loud voice. That woman was Diora Avery, one of the daughters-in-law of the Winter family. Elisha took a deep breath. She wasn't the one being scolded, but it still surprised her quite a bit. "Are you a president? Dare to arrive so late!" Elliott Winter's birthday party was scheduled for two in the afternoon, and from the mounted wall clock, Elisha could convince herself that neither of them was too late. At this time, it was still fifteen minutes before t

'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

"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

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.

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.
