The Billionaire’s Gem Chapter 9.
Foria's POV."How about this?" I asked one of our maids who was with me. I was holding a meat.She looked at me while holding the cart. She looked at it very carefully because Mom wanted the meat to be good and fresh. Mom doesn't want old meat. She's very choosy and it's irritating sometimes."That's okay, Ma'am. It looks fresh," she replied so I quickly put it in the cart and took six more to make sure it wouldn't run out. My son loves meat.“What's next, Morna?" I asked while looking around.She looked at me the paper. "Um... fruits and vegetables."“Alright, let's find it," I walked first and she followed me with the driver. He will be the one who will help us carry the food because we will buy a lot. And one more thing, so that someone will protect me when my fans notice me. It's dangerous.We are in the supermarket, buying groceries. We ran out of stock in the mansion and need to restock immediately. My son is always hungry and I don't want him to starve. He still doesn't want t

Foria's POV.I woke up because of the noise around. I don't know where I am but I heard something beeping. I also heard my mother and brother talking, it just didn’t enter my brain.I slowly opened my eyes and the first thing I saw was light. Because of it, I closed my eyes. I moaned a little and slowly opened my eyes again. “Foria!” “Maxine!”I quickly turned to my right when I heard a lot of voices. I saw my Brother, Mother and my friends running towards me with worry written on their faces."Are you okay? Does anything hurt?"“Why are you moaning? Are you hurting?”"Where does it hurt?"They asked me questions at the same time and I just looked at them, not knowing what to answer. They kept on asking me questions and it made me suffocated. My head hurts even more.“I-I can't breathe," I said making their eyes widen.“What?! Call the doctor!” Mom said in panic making them panic too."A-Ah, no—" I was cut off when I saw Jerome already left the room. Even if I wanted to stop them an

Foria's POV."Mommy!"My forehead creased when I heard a loud voice. I groaned and rolled over. I want to continue what I was dreaming. "Mommy! Mommy! Wake up!”I sighed and faced him. I opened my eyes and looked at my son who was looking at me, smiling. He seems to be having a good day today. I feel a positive air from him. "Hello, Mommy! Good morning!”I smiled then sat down slightly and leaned on the headboard. I kissed his forehead. “Good morning, Handsome Maxim," I greeted back. He giggled.He likes to be praise him so much that we always say that to him. I don't know where he inherited that trait from because Kuya Angelo and I are not like that. And Mama is not like that also and even our late Father. But even though he likes that, it made me happy. He makes me happy. "Why are you doing here early in the morning, Son?" I asked softly while combing his black hair.He adjusted his seat. "Grandma was cooking in the kitchen and she told me to wake you up. I think that Gran

Foria's POV."I'm sorry...""Please, I'm sorry. Forgive me." "Maxine! I did not mean it!"I gasped and looked at the ceiling with big eyes. The corners of my eyes started to heat up. After a few minutes, I realized that I was sobbing and my tears were flowing down to my cheeks."Maxine? Maxine!”"Foria! Oh my god!”I felt someone hugged me but I didn't bother to look who it was. I was holding my chest because it hurt so much. It looks like something heavy in there. I felt like it was squeezed by someone. It's so painful. It felt like it was already bleeding.I was having trouble breathing because of my sobs. I can't seem to stop myself crying. I was gasping for air. "P-Please... I don’t want this..." I said with difficulty and tightened my grip on my chest. The pain was still not gone. It seems like it was permanent.Even though I didn't see his face, I knew it was from him. The voice of the man who ruined my life. He was begging for me to forgive him. But instead of being happy, I

Foria's POV."Where are you?" Jannica asked in the other line.I glanced at my phone on my side before turning my car around. I was wearing an AirPods so that I could hear her well."I'm on my way, Jannica. It's little traffic,” I answered, bored.I was still on the road forty minutes ago because it was very traffic. Good thing I have a lot of patience, I might be screaming here if I don't have it. I would not waste my time on that nonsense thing anyway. It will just ruin my beauty."You said that forty minutes ago and you are still not here. The photographer kept on asking me where you are," she exclaims."I'm close! I can see the building from here," I said while looking at the building where my photoshoot was held."My goodness, Foria. We have been waiting here for hours now. Sir Liam just got here. He's looking for you while frowning," I think she wants to make me feel guilty.I know that Liam doesn't want to waste any time. He always wants us to be on time.Even though I have b

Foria's POV.I woke up from a noise. My sight was directly to the light making me close my eyes again.I slowly opened my eyes again. I blinked when I smelled the familiar scent. Am I in the hospital? What happened to me?I turned to my side. I am inside a room in the hospital. I took a deep breath and tried to sit up. But I only went back to bed when my head suddenly hurt. I held my hand and closed my eyes.I let out a breath again and tried to sit up. I kept moaning because my body also hurt. But the door suddenly opened causing me to look there.My eyes widened when I saw the man I didn't expect to see here. He was looking at me with wide eyes and he froze from where he was standing. He was holding a white bag, I don't know what was inside. Why is he here?!But what's also surprising is that I felt a little bit of fear of him, not like I've lost myself whenever I see him. But why is it so little now? I felt scared that he might do something to me again but there was something weir

Foria's POVI was now staring at Darren who was sitting on a long sofa, opposite my bed. I was leaning at the headboard while looking at him. He bowed his head as if he didn't want to talk to me. But I will not let it pass this time. This is the right time to talk to him and confront him about it.After I ate earlier, the two of us were silent while he helped me go to the bathroom to pee and brush my teeth. He also gently assisted me to bed even though I didn't need it. I am just stressed, not disabled.We waited who would speak first, but after a few minutes, none of us broke the silence. It seems like when someone speaks, something bad will happen to him."Where's my family? Why aren't they here?” and finally, I already dared to speak.I woke up here without anyone. He's the only one I'm with here. My family should be here. They must know that I'm here.He looked up at me. "I-I don't know how to contact them. I don't have a number...” good thing he didn't stutter much anymore. My
The Billionaire’s Gem Prologue.
"Maxine, you have a visitor!" I heard my mother shout from the living room. "Who is it, Mom?!" I said with a loud voice to make her hear me.I put the glass of milk on the table before putting the cookies in the oven. I checked the food that I was cooking before turning the stove off. I washed my hands and dried them using a towel. "It's your suitor!" Mama also shouted back making me stop.My forehead creased because of what she said. Suitor? I have a suitor? I don't remember letting Someone woo me even though I knew they liked me.As a model, it was normal to receive a lot of confessions, because I couldn't deny that I am beautiful. But I have never accepted those who wanted to court me. Yes, they are all handsome, but h*ll! They aren't even my type. They are a bunch of playboys who just wanted me to warm their beds. Gross. I hurriedly walked out of the kitchen. "Mom, who’s that? As far as I remember, didn't allow anyone to court me because they were all—” My feet immediat

Foria's POV. "Ms. Lux, look at here!” "Ms. Lux, here!”"You're so beautiful, Ms. Lux!”I smiled while looking at the paparazzi, left and right. My eyes were almost blind because of the flashes of their camera but I handled it. I posed confidently and even winked at them. They almost screamed making me grin even wider. I know that I can capture their eyes and heart in a few seconds.I stayed there for a few minutes posing and blinded by the lights before continue walking on the red carpet. Even so, their cameras were still following me.I'm here today at a charity ball hosted by a friend of mine. He invited me and I don't have the heart to reject it. I am in support of any charity programs such as this. Sometimes I go to other places just to help those who want to have a simple program for the poor. I am happy doing it. So tonight, I'm going to give two million pesos. Big but worth it!It's been years since I started to build my career and look at me now, I am one of the most succes

Foria's POV. "Is this it?"The company was so big that it led my mouth to open. It's like watching a Korean drama with a huge company. Well, we also have a big company, but the impact is really different when it was your dream. I never thought that I would enter a modeling company. I feel like I'm dreaming.I saw a lot of people going in and out. They are making themselves beautiful and they all have papers that I think are requirements to apply to be a model. I see someone smiling, in a group, and also frowning. I was really happy looking at them because I know some of them are my co-workers in the future, I hope.Oh, yes, by the way. What were the requirements? I didn't bring anything, my gosh! Angelo didn't tell me about it.I looked at my brother who was busy finding a parking space. He was frowning because there was no more space."Brother?" I called him.He glanced at me. "Why?""What were the requirements by the way? You didn't say anything about it but a lot of applicants wer
