I glanced as she started raising her voice. I straightened my back and leaned it against my chair and loosen my tie. She glared at me, and I don't care; she makes this scenario every day, and I act like a deaf person sometimes.She had a stentorian voice, and that's a fact! It's pretty annoying." What is it again? "I asked while rubbing my eyes. She looked at me open-mouthed and unbelievably"Don't play with me, Brandon!" She said, and stood up from sitting at the sofa "If you can't do it right away, I will dethrone you as our family heritor." She dropped a bombshell and made me nearly fall from my seat."Seriously?" I responded, and I still can't get over the words dethroned, as I knew I worked really hard for this company. She can't even do that!"Don't make things harder, Brandon Rhey; you have 1 week to go and present us your girlfriend. And that's an order from your grandfather," she said with a wrathful look."Are you really that insane? Who the hell would agree to be in a relationship in just a week of courting? Don't expect me to do that." I oppose; she's crazy. And I don't think so; this is my grandfather's deadlocked decision."Then, okay. I'll choose," she said desperately.What?"Okay, just give me enough time to do that." I have no other choice but to obey what she wants, even though this is against my will. It's difficult to associate with someone in a relationship if I let her pick for me."Good." Her wrinkles in her forehead relaxed."One month, and no more buts," she said and walked away. "Make sure she's as wealthy as we are."I'm watching as she steps outside and slams the door. I sighed and leaned my back again to my chair, contemplating what she would do if she found out Helsey wasn't as wealthy as we.I can't betray Helsey for this stupid thing. I would rather lose my legacy in our family, and that wasn't a problem since I had my own businesses, houses, and cars.I tilted my head as I heard the vibration coming from my phone.I immediately opened it I think it was Helsey texting.My smile jaded as I saw on the screen who'd texted me.MOTHER..."Don't think you can escape it. Your grandfather told me you should have your own family as soon as possible before he passed away, and I'm hoping you grant his plea as your repayment for him.""Or I would take all your businesses, houses, and cars if you disobeyed."I threw my phone through the wall after reading her intimidation towards me. She's a crazy knucklehead mother!I leaned back in my chair and stared at the broken glass of the phone scattered on the floor, realizing something was important in there."Damn! The picture." I immediately stood up, picked it up, and tried to open it. But it's too late; it's broken.I sat down and sighed.This isn't what I expected to happen. Now, Brandon Rhey, the youngest billionaire of the Wilsome family, has been obligated to comply with the legacy of the family by marrying a woman who is as wealthy as we are.Related chapters

Brandon's Pov I was at peace sitting in my office chair, playing the pen in my hand, when suddenly someone slammed the door forcefully and made my nerves awaken. "What are you doing?" A loud voice echoed in my office room when she entered, just to ruin my peacefulness. I sighed and looked straight ahead at her. "Maybe next time you can lower your voice when you enter my office," I sarcastically said. "I'm your mother! Don't you dare command me. I'll do whatever I want to." She shouted angrily, "You have to fix this mess, Brandon Rhey!" She's referring to the problem of building our resort in Palawan, which is that the contractor cancelled their contract. "I would, so please leave now." She furrowed her eyebrows, came closer to me, and propped her hands on my desk. "I gave you time for this if you wouldn't take action immediately. You will marry Flaire's daughter," she said and sneered. A surge of heat shot through my body. Calm down... I warned myself; she was just teasing me.

Helsey's Pov.After a few days in Palawan, we returned to Manila, but since then, Brandon has changed. He changed, and I felt that."Can we talk?" I asked him while we headed back to my home.Seconds after he responded, "Sure,""Are you mad at me?" He took a glance at me and looked back to the street as he drove."Why would I?" He asked back without even looking at me.I sighed in response.He snapped my left hand from my lap as he reached out of it. He clasped it while his left hand was on the steering wheel of the car.He kissed my hand. "Please don't ever leave me," he said, while he put our hands in his lap.I astonishingly look at him. "Of course I'm not. Why did you think that?" He didn't respond to me, but still he was holding my hand.He let go of my hand as we entered the street through my house.As we got right in front of my house, I was about to unbuckle my seatbelt as he held my head and kissed me on the lips. I was in shock. I didn't move, as I felt very weird toward him
The Billionaire's Hidden Secret Chapter 3. The sign
Helsey's Pov I woke up with a severe headache. I don't have enough sleep since I was anxious about my mother's condition. My heart is still burdensome from what happened last night. I don't want to think about it, but my heart wanted to. I fell asleep beside my mom's bed. Her consciousness returned last night. "What happened?" My mom asked me as I got up. "You fainted, mom," I said, holding her hand. "I don't want to be here." "I don't want too, mom, but you need to get better, and then we will go back home," I explained. "We don't have money. We can't afford the bill if I stay with her longer." She said she was more worried about the money than herself. "Don't think about it, mom; I can find way." I gave her a smile, thinking about Brandon's money that he had given me. Should I use it? I was planning to return the money to him. I exited her room, and while I was holding the doorknob, I peered at her before I shut the door. As I turned around to walk away in front of her ro

Helsey Pov I was already at the coffee shop, sitting in the corner, where I was going to meet Brandon's mother. My hands trembling, I rubbed it while his mother still hadn't yet arrived; I didn't want to look like a tremulous person in front of her. While I was nervously watching some people who were entering the coffee shop, I kept calming myself. "There you are..." A nifty voice tinkled as I raised my head, seeing her how gorgeous she is; she was more like her daughter, Bianey. I just realized it. Maybe because our last encounter with her was mad, that's why she looks like an evil mother. "So..." She paused and pulled the chair to seat; she sat in front of me. "Good spot," she added and smiled. "What do you want from me?" I asked. "You're in hustled?" "No, but I have something more important to do than waste my time arguing with you," I said, and she chuckled. "Ha-ha-ha, you're funny. Why does my son pick...?" "That's all you wanted? To insult me? Then I should go—" She hel

Brandon's Pov"Well, well, How are you, son?"My mother entered my room and sat down on my bed while I was working on some of my papers at the table."You seem so happy, huh." I responded.I remembered my days in Hawaii, as she set me up to date a girl that I hated the most. She told me we have urgent work to do there, but I didn't know she'd tricked me.I heard her chuckle."Of course, I'm always happy," she said."How was your relationship with Helsey?" She asks.I stopped what I was doing and turned around in my swivel chair to face her."Why do you ask? Aren't you satisfied with what you've done to me in Hawaii?" I sarcastically asked her.She stood up and walked through the window. "I'm very satisfied." She confidently said it."Your girlfriend replaced you with money."My heart pounded as she said it."I guessed you wouldn't believe me." She walked towards me and handed me the envelope.I looked confused at her and opened the envelope, where there were a few developed pictures o

Helsey's Pov"Your espresso, sir," I said, placing the coffee on his table."Thank you," he said. I smiled and walked away.I'm glad that I have been inducted into this job. It doesn't have much salary as my daily needs expenses, but I will have to tuck as much as I can.I walked back to the counter, and I felt dizzy again. These days, I feel my health is getting serious. I haven't been able to see a doctor since I don't want to squander my time. It means a lot to me for working here in full time.I held my head as I felt I was going to collapse, my maws making me puke."Hold this."
