The Billionaire’s Escort
Elizabeth Walters~
I took a deep breath as I stared out the windshield. I left the house a few minutes ago, leaving Hazel in after that making sure I could share my location with her.
I felt out of place even in the car, it was just myself and the driver, but I still felt extremely out of place. Maybe because I haven’t received the treatment I did today. I feel
Like a celebrity going for the Met Gala.
My nerves were on another level as it is. I inhaled deeply and exhaled. I smiled softly as I admired the place we just drove by. The real estate we just went into seemed like it was made for royalty. I had no idea if the dinner was taking place here because it had to be. I gaped shamelessly when the car drove into another estate in the estate. I tell you, there is an estate in this estate.
My eyes widened on seeing the house. I had totally forgotten there were actually rich people in this world. I was so obsessed with Liam that I forgot everything else.
The car stopped moving which I understood that we had arrived there. I let out a shaky breath as the driver opened the door for me to come out.
I legit had chills run down my spine. I stepped out of the car, and at that moment, I won’t even deny it. I felt like a celebrity.
I clutched my purse tightly as I looked around cautiously. The whole place looked like it was meant for royalty.
“Please follow me, miss.” The driver tells me. I immediately nodded, walking behind him as we walked into the building. My mind was going through different things as we walked into the house. The whole place made me realize just how poor I am.
We walked into a vast living room. It was definitely bigger than my entire house out together. I don’t even want to talk about the decor.
I felt ten times nervous than I did on my way here. “Please sit. Mr. Creed will join you shortly.” The man tells me and walks away immediately. Leaving me alone in this large ass living room.
I sat down on the couch as I waited for Mr. Creed while feeding my eyes with the house's decor.
I clutched my purse tightly even as I sat down, it’s been minutes, and still, I hadn’t seen anyone. Instead, I have been here sitting and waiting for Mr whatever his name is.
“Miss Walters.” I heard someone call out my name. I jumped out of the couch in fear stumbling forward as I did. I know it was an idiotic thing to do but in my defense. I was already feeling extremely nervous, and having someone yell out my name so fluently made me jump.
I bit my lip out of embarrassment, trying to collect myself before turning to see who it was.
“Miss Walters.” The person called out impatiently. I swallowed hard and turned around slowly.
Moving my gaze slowly to see who was calling my name so impatiently.
Whoever I am currently staring at is definitely not the fourth something, nor is he a sixty-five-year-old man. He definitely wasn’t what I was expecting.
I definitely was not expecting a man who looked like he just came out of a Calvin Klein magazine.
He looked like he would be about 6’5 tall, an extremely shiny and perfectly Ivy League copper brown hair was styled to perfection.
The aquiline nose he sported complemented his prominent cheekbones. Handsome in an understated way, his basalt jaw and Spartan shoulders spoke of strength. He has a subtle gritty beard that complemented his face. He looked like he was sculpted to perfection.
“Uh...Miss Walter’s, are you there?” He says again.
I realized what I was doing, and embarrassment is an understatement of how I felt. I just wanted the floor to open and swallow me.
“S-sorry, sir,” I replied.
He cocked his head sideways as he raised his eyebrows. I could tell that he was rethinking having me accompany him.
“Do I know you?”
My eyes widened as soon as he said that, know me? How could that be possible?
“I am sure you don’t know me. You probably have the wrong person.” I tell him, biting the insides of my cheeks to prevent me from speaking the more.
“Oh..okay..” he trailed off, still staring at me.
“Markel said he has filled you in on everything, and you are aware of it, is that right?” He asked, and I nodded.
“Good, please make sure to have minimal conversations, and if you face any issue, do inform me.” He warns, leaving me confused as to who would want to talk to me there.
“If you are okay with it, can we leave?” He asked, drawing me out of my thoughts.
I was already slacking off, and it’s only been a few minutes.
I bent slightly and picked my purse, smiling nervously at the man. He paused, drawing his arms out for me. I looked at him puzzled, wondering what I was supposed to be doing. I immediately linked my arm around his when I realized what he meant.
I swallowed hard as we began to walk out of the house. I felt a slight rush of emotions as we stepped out of the house to the already waiting car. I had no time to admire the car before getting into it.
I felt my tummy sink as we drove out of the estate. I guess, now, I will know what becoming an escort is all about.
Zane Creed~ Indignant! Irritated? Pissed? That was exactly how I felt. As if the business dinner wasn't enough was not enough, I have to go for lunch with Father. How much worse can this day get? I heard a knock on the door. Looking up to see Markel walk in, I could tell he was here to give me more bad news, and well, technically, it isn't his fault, and he is just doing his job."Sir, The commissioner of Jetrins sent you a congratulations message and also some gifts as well, If you allow it. I will have it sent here." He tells me. "Yeah, send them in. I will give a call to Jetrins and thank him. Also, clear all my appointments for this noon. I will b having lunch at Father's, and you will be coming along." I stated, watching as his eyes changed for a second. I knew he wouldn't like the idea, but afterall he is working for me, I don't want to sound like a rude, egotistic bastard, but If I am in the presence of the mighty
The billionaire’s escort~Zane Creed~Looking up into the night sky, I am welcomed by countless stars, constellations, and the moon. A breathy sigh escaped my lips as I looked at the sky, my palms growing cold due to them placed on the iron bars of the balcony. I shivered internally as I stared at the sky. It was beyond beautiful. It was healing, just standing here and looking at the sky.The rush of events from today flashed back to me, thinking about the honor I had just been bestowed on. The lunch with the Creeds and finding out Markel went on some dumb site, searching for a date for me.The first thing that crossed my mind when I found out
Elizabeth Walters~Nervous is an understatement as to how I felt at this moment. I didn’t think I would be this nervous, but I am being so cautious even to breathe correctly.The car ride was so silent, and not even the radio was on. It was too uncomfortable for me, but I had to suck it up. The quietness in the car was not helping my nerves. “Relax. You look like you are being kidnapped right now.” I snapped my head to look at the man beside me. He smiled curtly at me, gesturing with his hands for me to calm down. I really wish it was that simple.“Thank you,” I whispere
Elizabeth Walters~Isn’t it funny as to how a few days ago I had a boyfriend and a best friend that I wouldn’t trade for anything, and today I am an escort for the man whose wristwatch can solve all my life problems?“Good evening, Ladies and gentlemen.” A voice boomed through the walls of the hall, getting everyone’s attention at the same time.I looked at the stage where the voice came from. A man stood there smiling widely as he got everyone’s attention. “Without further A-due, let’s welcome the man of the night. The one and only Jeffery Lombardi.” The man says. Everyo
Elizabeth Walters.Coming to this occasion just made me realize how boring rich people actually live. I mean, all they were doing was listening to music, talking, and smiling at each other, and that’s literally all. “Who is she?” A lady asked as I pulled out a chair to sit. Her eyes were questioning my entire existence.Mr. Creed had agreed to change seats to his father’s, but he had to attend to someone and asked me to come here alone instead.“Hello,” I say, giving the lady my best smile as I sit down. I could see the resemblance between her and Mrs. Creed. She looked like an exact replica of the woman, only the younger version. Her pale skin drew my att
Zane Creed~I sipped the wine in my hands, staring out the window and looking at the sky. A sly smile made its way to my lips as I remembered what had happened today.Not only was it funny that Eugene got himself into what he did, and well succeeded in embarrassing his family alongside Lorraine. They definitely outdid themselves, and I can only laugh about it.The only person I do feel sorry towards is Elizabeth. I could see the fear in her eyes when Lorraine approached her. The way she backed up and started to stutter made me swing into action.I didn’t want to make a huge deal out of it, especially at that place, and tried my very best not to yell at both mother and son, although it s
Elizabeth Walters~At least I have an idea of how it feels to be wrongly accused.The clips online were all about Mrs. Creed confronting me for allegedly attacking her son and her trying to hit me, but Mr. Zane came in between us and asked her to leave. In all, I was portrayed as some slimy home breaker. Now don’t get me started on the comments. I read only one comment and dropped the phone. I’m sure I do not have the heart to do this. I mean, all I did was go out as an escort. Yes! I got paid but at what expense? Everyone will know me as some lady that attacked the Creeds?I was being called crazy everywhere by everyone, even though I did nothing.“I&rsquo
Zane Creed~Isn’t it funny how things can suddenly turn in your favor when a few hours back, it was all shitty for you?I looked at the card on the table, and a sly smirk made its way to my lips as I looked at it. She couldn’t have been more stupid about this. I mean, how could she miss this.Lorraine definitely didn’t teach her kids how to stay off others' business; now, they would have to deal with it. Well, they have a father who would do anything to help them. The best father indeed.I scoffed as I unbuttoned my jacket. Eugene apparently spent the night in the family house and is still there because of how faint he feels.I could
EpilogueElizabeth Walters~It’s been three months now. Today marks the third moth Mr Creed passed away and left us here. Today marks the second month since Mrs Lorraine was sentenced to life imprisonment for her involvement in the death of Zane’s mother and attempted murder of Zane.It’s been one hell of a ride during these past three months. Zane has focused so much on work, I fear he would break down one day. I know everything that has happened has been extremely over whelming for him and I wish he would open up more about his feelings but at the same time I didn’t want to pressurize him.“Whe
Zane Creed~ “What do you want to do now sir?” Markel asked me. I sighed and looked around. “Visit father, go and see Elizabeth and finally Lorraine. “ I say “Which would you like to do first?” “Visit Elizabeth, I think I need her now.” I say, putting my phone into my pocket and walked out of the house, I asked Markel to lock the doors to the house properly and make the workers leave. There was no use renovating anything anymore. I hopped into the car while I waited for Markel to join me. I couldn’t help but remember Lola. How distraught she must be. I wish I felt pity for them but in all honesty, I really do not beca
Zane Creed~I felt the time stop just as soon processed these things she just said to me. I knew Lorraine was heartless but to this extent? I didn’t believe it. Her phone began to ring, jolting me out of my thoughts. “What!?” She barked into the phone, her voice changing like she wasn’t the same Lorraine.“If you had done your job properly then this wouldn’t be happening you nit wit! If you had cleared him during the accident then I won’t be forced to finish this by myself. I removed paying you quite a hefty sum to do the job but you failed. Now cut the call and let me finish this off. I have wasted enough time already.” She barked and cut the
Elizabeth Walters~“Are you still there?“ Hazel asked over the phone, I turned slightly to look at Zane who was now sleeping. A soft smile laying on my lips“Yeah, he is sleeping but I would be here for a while, don’t worry about me.”“You’re sure you will be okay? That his crazy sister won’t try to attack you like she did yesterday?”“No, don’t worry about it. I have my nurse fit with me and I’ll be fine.” I say and hung up, tucking the phone into my pocket. I sighed and looked back at Zane who was still sleeping.He didn’t want to sleep even
Zane Creed~“Sir, it’s safe so you can open your eyes.” I heard Markel’s voice and opened my eyes. Looking around the room to be sure we were the only one here. I removed the bandage on my arm and sat up. “What happened? Is Elizabeth fine?” I asked and he nodded affirmatively.“Yes, she got into an argument with Lola but she left already.” He tells me and I stand up.“I feel guilty. She had to get into that stupid argument with Lola because of me. I should find out the person behind this as soon as possible. I can’t wait any longer especially now that Elizabeth is here.” I tell him
I woke up as early as I could the next day, I could hardly sleep. I had to force myself to sleep seeing as I would actually need it but truthfully I felt guilty that I slept when Zane was prolly fighting for his life.I got up from the bed and stretched a bit. My muscles were cramped from the flight yesterday but I had no time to dwell on it.I stood up and walked into the bathroom, I had to see Zane as soon as possible but how? I had no idea.I stepped into the shower and had my bath. A while later I finished, walking out of the bathroom and towel dried my body.“Good morning, Noah called to ask if we got here safely.” She tells me and I smiled. Of course only Noah would call me and that’s because
Elizabeth Walters~“What’s going on? I thought his assistant was also involved in the accident.” Hazel asked as we walked into the elevator.“To be honest, I have no idea but all I want to do right now is see Zane. That’s all there is to it.” I say and she sighed, placing her hand over my shoulders.“I’m sure everything is fine.” She tells me and I smiled, whispering a thank you to her.We walked out of the elevator on getting to his floor, walking directly to his office. I knocked lightly on the door and heard someone yell for me to come in.I furrowed my eyebrow and glanced at Hazel, pushing the

Elizabeth Walters ~Out of all the chaos happening, I am only glad for one thing. Zane had booked our returning tickets so I could leave Seattle whenever I wanted to and for today, it’s helping me.Here I was in the airplane and on my way back to NewYork. My heart wasn’t settled. The surge ment I had with mom was constantly bugging me like no tomorrow. Thinking about what the newscaster said again made my heart beat increase by a hundred.What condition would he be in? How would he be fairing? I had no idea and I was really worried. I just couldn’t wait to get back to NewYork and see him. “Elizabeth, stop worrying so much and calm down, I’m sure Zane is doing ok
