The Billionaire's Favourite Mistake 24. Condition
Quinn . "It's getting better. Thank you for asking." I rolled back the bandage around my wound as I didn't want any bacteria around it. It's itchy, and there are times that I want to itch it so severely. "Just add more antiseptic cream if it feels itchy," he suggested. "That's what I've been doing, Xav. Last night was the worst. I was about to itch it, but I stopped myself. I ended up counting the sugar in bits and pieces." I rolled my tongue, and I wished it were a joke. But it wasn't a joke at all. His eyebrows crossed, and he said, "What?" He chuckled slightly with an unbelievable smile and shook his head. "Yes, I counted them because I couldn't sleep." I rested my arms on the sand while looking at the waves. We were sunbathing. Initially, I was alone, but later he joined me. I washed the cooking pot and used the sand as the scrubber. It worked. At least the black stain of the pot bum from the fire cooking got clean. Although it wasn't that clean but it's manageable. "You a

Xavion . I can't wait to finish this. Of all the troubles, why must it be my connection to Bryce and the boys? They can't reach me now. I have no connection to the real world and don't know what is happening out there. I am here with Quinn, and we are stranded. Dammit. "Here's the bucket. I filled it up with seagrass. Let me know if you need more. I will get more for you for this project!" The excitement in her voice puts a smile on my face. I am cleaning the giant aquarium stored inside the storage house for months. I used to have a lizard, an iguana name Luigi. Since we rarely go to the Island, we moved Luigi to our hideout where he could be cared for. "What do you want to add in there? I want some ocean fish or any swimming creatures." "I will check. I still have a pellet and fish food left there from last year. I guess that's enough until our rescue arrives. And if not. We will just let it return to the ocean," I suggested. "Yes, that's a good idea. Let's do that." She p
Last Updated : 2023-07-16The Billionaire's Favourite Mistake 26. I'm sorry
Quinn . I can't hide my smile while watching the little fishes swim fast inside the aquarium. Xavion didn't fill the aquarium with much water. It was only less than half, but it was enough for the fish anyway. They seem lovely to see, giving me a fulfilling feeling every time I look at them. My problems faded, and my worries were thrown aside. I have no concerns with me now. The tension I felt for him has dissipated, and I am now comfortable around him during our time here. As long as I don't stare into his eyes too much, my feelings for him no longer worry me. I will not be defeated like how I used to be. "Have you toured around the Island? I wonder what's on the other side?" I expressed. When I first came here, I got bored and started my journey of travelling the Island to a full three hundred sixty degrees. But that didn't give me a good outcome. I ended up walking back to my journey five hours later. I realised there was no way to tour the Island in just one day. It takes a
Last Updated : 2023-07-18The Billionaire's Favourite Mistake 27. Her story?
Xavion . Ignore her? Reject her? How could I do that? I will listen to her and see how things go. I was caught off guard because I never delved into her personal life. My feelings towards her changed the moment she turned her back on me. I harboured resentment towards her for a long time and became distrustful of women who resembled her. I swore to the devil that once I see her, I will make sure she will regret what she did to me. But dammit. What is happening now is entirely opposite to the way I wanted. "I'm ready!" I whirled around, and her majestic smile gave a warm feeling inside my heart. Damn. How did Quinn manage to steal my heart like this so quickly? Sometimes I just wanted to shut my eyes and close my ears so I couldn't hear her voice. But hell, that's impossible. I can't control my feelings, and every little movement of my body is betraying me. "Good to hear," I nodded and noticed the bag she was carrying, causing my brows to furrow. "Am I carrying too much? Shou
Last Updated : 2023-07-20The Billionaire's Favourite Mistake 28. Snob with a warm heart
Quinn . I know Xavion will pay no interest in me and probably will get bored of my story. He hated me so much. I saw that. I am not blind to that. On rare occasions, I sense his frustration, but it’s not a frequent occurrence. Despite his icy gaze, I believe he has a kind heart that is eager to embrace me. I just need to break the ice to get into his heart. Way more to go, Quinn. You can do this! We reached three-quarters around, and the beauty of the Island was the same. Despite the need for cleaning up the litter that has washed up on the rough side of the shore from other parts of the world, the Island still showcases its natural beauty. There are plenty of crabs. Most of them are edible but very hard to catch. There are a lot of clams, and some are safe to eat at this part. The water is crystal clear, and you can see more fish swimming in this part closer to us. They can’t be caught because they move too quickly, and acquiring specific equipment is necessary to catch one. It

Xavion . "Aim it a little bit higher, Quinn. Focused on the target ahead. Think carefully about where you want to shot your subject." I gritted my teeth while seriously looking at her. I am standing behind her and notice her hand shaking slightly. She seems nervous and unsure about pulling the trigger. "There are two major spots to kill your target, Quinn. First, at the head, and second on his heart. Choose one. I know it's a crucial decision, but you must be strong to pull the trigger, Quinn. Holding the gun and aiming to kill someone is not easy," I reminded her as I wanted her to loosen up a little bit. "Oh, God. I can't do it." She sighed, and her shoulder dropped. "It's alright. It's your first time," I said, slowly touching her hand and removing the gun from her. I disassembled it, ensuring no bullets were inside, and handed it back to her. "Now try it without a bullet." I stepped a little bit and just watched her. She glanced at me, appearing more at ease this time. She
Last Updated : 2023-07-24The Billionaire's Favourite Mistake 30. Take me
Xavion . I walked away the moment we arrived. I want to be alone for a moment. I don't know what's wrong with me lately. I have this feeling that she needs to survive without me. She's clingy at times and eager to learn things but scared. Something is off about her, and I want to know why. Looking back, I realise I should have conducted thorough research then. However, since I didn't want to reintegrate into her life, I neglected the critical tasks that needed my attention. "Dammit, Quinn, you are doing my head in," I whispered silently, and my body deflated on the chair. I'm inside the helicopter. Everything seems fine, except for the minor damage on the propeller. I'm just waiting for the boys to arrive and assist me. It has been three days since I last received a strong signal from them. Today, I am hoping for a positive outcome. It's easy for the boys to get here unless Bryce intentionally delays things. Damn, that lunatic. He is doing this on purpose. I connected a f
Last Updated : 2023-07-26The Billionaire's Favourite Mistake 31. I will keep her
Quinn . Do I have the right to feel this way? God knows how much I want to escape from that hell. And now that I am here with Xavion, I am willing to comply with all of his requests, but I have no desire to return to that place. My grandmother is currently in need of rescue and is waiting for me. I will take the necessary steps to prepare myself before devising a plan to assist her. I've been feeling down lately. Xavion has been preoccupied with fixing the connection. I overheard him on the phone yesterday, and it was successful because the connection is working again. I should be thankful that his friends will be coming over. But why do I feel this way? I am sad. The thought of us getting separated brings me down. I don't want this to end. I don't want to be separated from him. I quietly placed the sandwich I had prepared on the small table beside him. He was about three meters away, focused on repairing the fence. "Lunch is here. I made you a tuna sandwich," I said, sitting

Diezel's POV . "You have to understand your son. You can't just push him to marry someone against his heart. He is a Mondragon. And being a Mondragon man only means one thing. . . We are born stubborn to the content of our hearts. We stick to what our hearts dictate no matter how fucking twisted the path we choose. We dedicate ourselves to one woman. We fight for love and go crazy with it." I gritted my teeth as I listened to Xavion's parents, who were sitting beside me. I have never experienced love before, so I do not know what it feels like. I grew up in a tough but humorous environment surrounded by good and bad individuals. I am currently accompanied by my cousins, who are pretty eccentric. The black Mondragons are my favorites, and I belong to them. I am one of them. But the hell, I am here facing the same sky, standing beside Xavion's father. "When is the wedding?" Xavion's mother looked at me. "Tomorrow, Zia." I swallowed hard, avoiding her gaze. Zia Maricor reminds me
The Billionaire's Favourite Mistake Epilogue
Quinn . -matured content- Xavion reclaimed my lips, kissing me hungrily. I opened my mouth and welcomed every thrust of his tongue as it explored every corner of my mouth. His hand pushed the hem of my skirt, caressing my thighs. I gasped in anticipation, and my body melted. Every touch of his hand in between my thigh sends thousands of heat inside me. His lips traveled down my neck. I giggled when I felt his lips around there. I continue massaging his nape. He swept me in his arms and gently eased my body on the bed. Our eyes locked briefly, and his weight pushed my body on the mattress. "I love the look of your eyes, Quinn. It speaks of wanting me, darling." He said, licking his lips and his hand gently caressing my side, aiming to unhook my bra. My body arched, and the moment he unhooked my bra and took off my top, his lips came crashing on mine again. "Oh, dammit." He groaned, and I moaned when I felt the gentle massage of his hand on my breast. I was already on fire. Ever
The Billionaire's Favourite Mistake 89. Be mine
Quinn.Half sleeping, I reached out for Xavion. I can still remember what happened last night. I had a slight fever, and his embrace healed me. His manly scent completed the whole of me I'd longed for years. With my eyes shut, I smiled and moved my right hand, reaching his side. I love the feeling of touching his warm chest. Instead, I felt the cottony, fluffy texture of a pillow.I was wide awake in an instant. He is no longer beside me.I took my dressing gown that was hanging on the dressing chair, put it on, and ran towards the kitchen. I was relieved to see Xavion preparing something. I thought he left me."Hey, good morning, Quinn! You've got the best chef here on the Island. Let's eat!" Diezel greeted me with a full mouth of food.Xavion turned to see me carrying freshly brewed coffee. And his dashing smile gives a warm feeling inside me."Oh, you're awake." Xavion smiled, looking so hot on his white top. He put down his cup of coffee and strode sexily towards me."I thought y

Xavion . "It's too dangerous, Xavion. I won't let you fly on your own. Use my yacht. It's better than flying a helicopter. It's better to be safe than sorry, bro. The rain hasn't stopped. There was no storm, but a low-pressure area is building up North." Norman sighed and shook his head. I gritted my teeth, facing the dark sky. Quinn is waiting for me. I need to go to her now. "The yacht may take you six hours, and it's fine. It doesn't matter if you arrive late on the Reserve Island, Xavion. It's better to land safely. Using the helicopter will give you zero visibility." Norman continued. "I guess I have no choice," I silently uttered. "It's alright." Norman patted my shoulder and chuckled. "You want this, and I understand that. She may not be happy with this, but you have to listen to her. Yes, she's still your Quinn, the same person as before, but she has a lot of priorities now. Diezel abducted her this morning without permission and - " "I have settled everything, Norman.
The Billionaire's Favourite Mistake 87. Worried
Quinn . And like a child, as soon as the yacht docked, I ran free towards the house where I used to be. "Xavion! Xavion!" I shouted for his name. I was not listening to Diezel anymore. "Hey, Quinn! Fai attenzione ai serpenti, Amore mio!" I stopped and looked around the sand. I almost forgot that this Island has a lot of snakes around, not to mention the prickly weed I hate the most! I turned around to see Diezel, and he started carrying the goods on his shoulder. I twisted my lips and continued walking a little faster this time. I nervously looked at each corner because of the snakes. "Snakes are good at hiding. Don't worry. I believe the boys cleaned the place." Diezel said, and he was now walking towards me, carrying two sacks of goods on his shoulders, which seemed heavy. I stopped again, letting him pass through me first, and I curiously followed him. I realized Xavion was not around because the place was too quiet. Diezel went inside the house, organizing all the stuff.

Quinn . "Who are you? What do you want from me? Let me go!" I kicked my feet, hoping to unhook the tie. But it was too tight. I couldn't even maneuver my body. I don't know what happened after I passed out. I was about to see Jarrod to talk about the other business proposal. But here I am, now sitting in this coffin-shaped box. "Hey! Are you listening? Where are you going to take me? Let me go! I'm busting. I need to go to the toilet!" I said nervously. It's a lie. I will find a way to escape, but then again, I don't know how. The yacht is moving fast, and this idiot will probably take me somewhere isolated. "Hello!? Hey!" I yelled out. Judging by his body build, he is a pro. Broad shoulders, stern frame, perfect body built where I could not see any fats. It's all muscles in there with more than six packs. Neat look with a pleasant smell. I should be scared. But I'm not. I'm thinking of a way to escape once this yacht will dock. Xavion? I shut my eyes, thinking about him. I

Xavion . “I’m sorry, Xavion, but I can’t. I don’t think this is right. What about Trinity? She invested herself so much in you for three years. You can’t just wipe her in a snap. It’s not right… a-and what about your parents? Your mother hates me. And your father still doesn’t approve of me.” My heart dropped to the ground the moment I heard it from her. It kept playing on my head like a dislocated player disc. Fucking dammit! I could feel the screams of frustration at the back of my throat as the pain kept squeezing my chest. “Hey, bro, are you listening to me?” Glenn furrowed his brows and looked at me intently with a serious expression. “Something is wrong with you. Come on, tell me.” He stood firmly before me, crossed his arms, and demanded to know what was wrong. I stood up, sighed, and turned my back on Glenn, trying to figure out everything about Quinn. I have to do something, or I’ll go insane with this again. This can’t be effing happening. "Xavion Xavier Mondragon?

Quinn . "The past is the past. It happened already. We made mistakes. Nobody is perfect. Now, we learned from it...we are what we are now, and we must face reality. Now is the right time to choose your heart, Quinn. Never be afraid anymore, my child. All well be okay..." I smiled, remembering Grandmother's message to me. My eyes are still shut, feeling the warmth and comfort of my bed. It felt like I was sleeping on the clouds, and I felt light and complete. Xavion? My eyes automatically opened the moment I remembered him. "What the. . ." Like a robot, I got up and quickly sat on the edge of the bed. I'm wearing an oversized white man's long sleeve. It went above my knees, and I ran straight to the toilet when I remembered what had happened. Relax, self. I need to use a toothbrush first. Since this is not my place, I put some toothpaste on my pointy finger and brushed it on my teeth. I gurgle up with mouthwash after washing my face. I was a complete mess last night. I vomit

Xavion . "I'm sorry," she said, almost like a whisper. I felt my jaw tighten as I carefully placed her on top of my bed. She let go of me, and she sounded asleep already. I slowly stood up and stared at her for a second, releasing a sigh. I move to the end of the bed and take off her stilettos. I slightly shook my head after removing them. Seeing the anklet with a dangling pendant, I gave her more than three years ago proves she still loves me. I sighed, stood up, gritted my teeth, and surveyed her clothes. I guess I have no other choice but to change her. The top she's wearing with her fit body blazer looks uncomfortable. I shook my head and sat on the edge of the bed. "I don't know what to do with you, Quinn. You are stubborn as hell. Do you think you can handle everything on your own? You are wrong, darling," I weakly uttered. I was about to unbutton her blazer, but her hands moved, now touching my fingers. "Xavion…" She opened her eyes, and my heart fluttered. There was a
