The Billionaire's Housemaid You are open-minded
Rowan was taken aback. Part of her wanted to retort, saying, "That's not my boyfriend," but upon regaining her composure, she realized that it wasn't worth making a fuss. They would likely never see the store manager again after leaving, so there was no need to take it so seriously.Instead, she chose to explain to James, "He's a very considerate person. Maybe he acted tough because I mentioned how much I liked this dress, and he didn't want to let it go easily."The store manager nodded in understanding and showered Rowan with compliments, insisting that she and James were a perfect match and had a great relationship. Her envy and emotions were evident between the lines, causing Rowan to blush, even though she knew it was a compliment.She hurriedly left the fitting room, wanting to put some distance between herself and the store manager. When she rejoined James, she noticed that his face had once again turned slightly pale. The woman across from him didn't look much happier either.
The Billionaire's Housemaid Sneaking away
"What's the matter?" James noticed Rowan's distant expression and followed her gaze, but he couldn't discern anything unusual.Rowan snapped back to reality upon hearing his voice and mumbled with a hint of confusion, "I thought I saw someone just now.""Who?" James was secretly worried that she might mention a name like "David." Recognizing someone in a bustling crowd at a glance might suggest an enduring place in her heart. Fortunately, she didn't.Instead, a name he'd never heard before slipped from her lips, furrowing his brow. He probed further, "Who are you talking about?"Rowan, now more aware, apologized and explained, "I forgot I never told you his name before. It's Victor—the guy who stole my necklace that day, the one who made me go to the police station with him!"James began to recall the incident. Rowan had gone for a prenatal check-up alone, and she hadn't returned home too late, but she was visibly shaken.He squinted and scanned the direction Rowan had been looking ea
The Billionaire's Housemaid What a nonsense
James smiled politely as he stood with Uncle Matteo."That's good, that's good," James replied, trying to maintain a pleasant demeanor.Uncle Matteo, with a warm smile on his face, turned his attention to Rowan, who was standing beside James.He inquired, "Who is this?"James introduced, "This is my female companion, Rowan."Then he turned to Rowan and said, "Rowan, this is my Uncle Matteo, a close friend of my dad's. Please say hello."Rowan obediently greeted him, "Hello, Uncle Matteo.""Okay, okay," Uncle Matteo responded with a polite smile. However, he didn't engage in much conversation with Rowan.Turning back to James, Uncle Matteo changed the topic, "Why are you still getting ready to go out? Are you planning to make a brief appearance and leave without even saying hello to me?!"Upon hearing this, Rowan finally realized that Uncle Matteo was the host of the banquet. She and James had contemplated slipping away, but they were intercepted before they could even reach the eleva
The Billionaire's Housemaid Whose birthday party
Whose birthday partyNaomi's captivating, oversized eyes seemed to brim with simmering frustration year-round as she approached her father with a visible scowl on her face.With a furrowed brow, she confronted him, asking, "Why are you trying to push my friend away?"Before Uncle Matteo could formulate a response, Kate, standing beside him, couldn't contain her impatience and reached out to grasp Naomi's arm.She spoke with genuine concern in her voice. "Naomi, please don't be so angry. You shouldn't talk to your father that way. He's acting in your best interest and for the well-being of our family."Naomi appeared to harbor strong aversion towards Miss Kate. She promptly rolled her eyes and brushed Kate's hand away dismissively."Stop pretending! What's so good for me about this? I can't even have my friends over for my birthday, let alone celebrate it the way I want to. Explain to me, what's good about that?"Miss Kate's face exhibited a touch of sadness, and she responded with a h
The Billionaire's Housemaid Children
"Are you two intentionally trying to provoke me?" He couldn't resist asking the two children.Victor remained silent and gestured to Naomi, stopping her from responding.His gaze initially landed on Miss Kate, who stood just slightly behind Uncle Matteo. He quickly averted his eyes, as if he believed they would become tainted if he looked at her for too long. Then he scanned the surroundings, and his face displayed a mix of surprise and delight when he saw Rowan. His eyes lit up as he asked her, seemingly oblivious to everyone else's presence.All eyes were now fixed on Rowan, making her feel a weight on her shoulders. Before she could speak, James calmly grasped her hand and clarified their presence with a slight curve of his lips. He smiled at Uncle Matteo and said, "We received the invitation and came together."Rowan couldn't shake the feeling that there was something peculiar about James's words, something that could easily be misinterpreted regarding their relationship. But it w
The Billionaire's Housemaid Whose brother are you?
At Uncle Matteo's residence, Rowan had no choice but to follow Victor to another banquet hall not far away.Before stepping into the door, she thought she would face another chaotic and noisy carnival, and she was already prepared to have her eardrums pierced again.It turned out that it was much quieter inside than she expected, and there were not as many people there as before.Of course, the silence here is not the kind of deathly silence, but there are a lot less noisy sounds.Many people gathered near the buffet table, chatting and laughing while eating, and the atmosphere was warm and warm.Like a real birthday party. Uncle Matteo seemed to see the surprise in her eyes and asked her with a smile."What's wrong? It's not what you imagined?"Rowan was a little embarrassed, "I thought it would be... livelier than now." "Hahaha."Victor grinned widely, his eyes and eyebrows lightening up.At this time, he really looked like a 17-year-old boy."My sister has a more direct temper. S
The Billionaire's Housemaid Why did he come?
It was already half an hour later when they'd returned to the banquet hall next door.Sure enough, as Rowan thought, when she saw James from a distance, she could clearly see the anxiety in his eyes.When he met Rowan's gaze, he breathed a long sigh of relief.Then he walked forward and hugged her gently.The movements were as gentle as hugging a lost and found precious porcelain."Where did you go?"His tone was not so much questioning her whereabouts, but more like a parent who was frightened by a child who ran away from home all night.Rowan felt very sorry for making him worry so much, so she obediently let him hug her."I'm sorry, I've been out for so long and I didn't tell you where I went..."Then she apologized in a low voice.James still held his arms around her shoulders, leaning slightly to look at her face."You must tell me next time. It really scared me just now. I want to go find you, but I am afraid that you will come back suddenly after I leave and we will not be able
The Billionaire's Housemaid The Dinner Party I can't leave
A warm big hand passed through the back and firmly supported Rowan's waist.The warmth of his hands was faintly transmitted through his clothes.Rowan calmed down a little when she remembered that someone was still with her.Beside him, James had already taken up uncle Matteo's words and spoke."We know each other. David, long time no see."In fact, it didn’t take long.He saw David last time when he suddenly appeared at the door of Rowan's house.Not only did he almost fall out when he saw him.But at this time, no one would take the initiative to raise this old score.David looked away and responded coldly, "Long time no see."Uncle Matteo seemed a little surprised, but after all, he was a veteran who had been in the business world for so many years. He quickly calmed down and said to the two people with a smile, "So you have known each other for a long time! That's better, that's even better! "Then he turned and pointed at Uncle Matteo, "This is my youngest son. David must have

Instantly, the air around David crackled with tension. He swiftly shed his suit, the fabric feeling heavy in his trembling as he handed it over to Richard, who felt like crying at the back of his boss—this was all his boss had been working for in the past few months: to have Miss Rowan to himself finally, without fear of Flora hurting her again. Just then, James' phone buzzed, interrupting the silence that engulfed the atmosphere. Seeing the caller, James picked up at once. "Hello, babe," James said into the phone, drawing curious glances from David and Richard. To them, only Rowan would receive such a nickname. Seeing their suspicious gazes, he switched the phone to loudspeaker. "Hi, Naomi, you can speak now," James invited. "Miss Rowan has been rushed to the hospital. She's unable to fly; she started having contractions before she entered the plane," Naomi informed them. Before James could reply, David snatched the phone from his hands. "Miss Naomi, this is her husband at the ho
The Billionaire's Housemaid The wedding day
The room was alive with happiness as Flora jubilated, knowing that in a few hours, every TV station and blogger would be buzzing about her wedding to David Thompson, the president of the Oregon group of companies."As the heiress of Seraphims Holding, I only deserve the best," Flora declared from where she lay on the bed, with Andrew planting kisses on her neck and along her jawline."You know I will compensate you handsomely. I panicked when I found out David had regained his memory but didn't want me anymore. I thought everything was over, after years of patiently waiting," Flora confessed, a smile playing on her lips."I've told you that you don't have any problems. Since you've opened up to me about your true feelings and that it's me you love, and only his money you desire, since you've promised that it's my child you'll carry in his house, then I don't have any issues. The wedding is set to proceed, and in a few hours, you'll be Mrs. Thompson officially, but inwardly, you'll be M
The Billionaire's Housemaid Steve decision
It had been a few days, and tension hung thick in the air as Steve returned to James's house to deliver his response. The silence that filled the room was deafening, each breath heavy with anticipation. Jessica, though she thought she was prepared for any outcome, couldn't help but rub her hands together nervously. Ryan, sensing the tension, rested his head on her lap, his instincts picking up on the palpable anxiety swirling around them. "So, brother, have you finally made your decision?" James asked, his tone harsh yet tinged with regret. In the past few days, he had come to realize that his emotions had clouded his judgment. He understood that everything Steve had done was out of love for him — Steve didn't want him to lose the love of his life, just as James had lost his. It was this realization that had prompted James to allow Steve to make his own decision, even if it meant James would have to bear the pain of parting with his brother, if only for a while. "Yes, kid brother,"
The Billionaire's Housemaid Knowing the truth
What?" David's father asked, surprised by his son's allegations. "Dad, answer me. Are you involved with her too?" David demanded. "No, I'm not. And I'm disappointed that you would think so little of your father," David's father said. "I don't care, Dad. If she knows something about you significant enough to trade for my safety, then it must be substantial, and I need to know about it today," David said defiantly "Sit down, and I will tell you everything," David's father said. Reluctantly, David slumped into the chair, his anger palpable, emanating from him like a dark cloud. "Firstly, I discovered the kind of person Flora was after you started seeing her. Knowing how much you love her compelled me to dig deeper. I didn't want you to end up with the wrong woman. After finding out that she was involved with different men, I decided to confront her myself instead of letting you do it. During our conversation, she confessed that her uncle had forced her into those situations and that
The Billionaire's Housemaid Secret
"What do you mean, David? It was the marriage certificate we both signed, isn't that what we both wanted back then? Just because you didn't have the memory doesn't change the fact that your mother is aware of it, and a mother can't lie," Flora's voice came over the phone, her tone laced with frustration and desperation. She wasn't even attempting to come to David's house, realizing she had nothing left to lose."Flora, even if it is true, I don't want this marriage anymore. We have to annul the certificate," David stated firmly, using a word he never wanted to utter."What? David, are you trying to use me and then discard me? We've been dating for almost seven years. Now you don't want me anymore, and you didn't consider the repercussions it will have on my family and me, on the company, on everyone who believed we would end up together... I won't force you, David, but think about the consequences. We are legally married starting next week. If we don't announce it publicly, I don't kn
The Billionaire's Housemaid Where did you get it?
Naomi could only hum softly as she listened to Rowan's teasing remarks. Bending down, she reached for the coffee cups placed in front of them, an order she had made for both of them. Savoring the warmth, she took a delicate sip before carefully placing the cup back on the table.Inwardly, Naomi grasped the subtle undertones of Rowan's words. Since meeting James, she felt a shift within herself, a desire to embody qualities that might earn his admiration. But could she confide in Rowan that the catalyst for her change was the very man who harbored feelings for her?"Miss Rowan, I can't say there's any love involved. Let's just say someone's critique nudged me towards self-improvement," Naomi replied, her voice tinged with uncertainty. Rowan's gentle smile lingered, leaving Naomi to ponder if her response had hit the mark."You know, being challenged by someone and feeling compelled to better oneself because of them, well, it's akin to love. You might not realize it now, but soon enough
The Billionaire's Housemaid The Rude girl
Before James exited the hospital, he had arranged to meet Naomi, only to hear the distressing news that she was banned from leaving the house. Naomi, a pivotal figure in her father's company, had inadvertently stirred up trouble by being seen at clubs, inviting scrutiny from shareholders and adding pressure to her father's plate. She was slated to marry into another wealthy family to enhance the company's stature. James, though conflicted, found himself driving toward Naomi's house despite his vow to stay away and avoid complicating matters for both families. The prospect of being desired by Naomi's father for his daughter weighed heavily on him, even as he questioned his own intentions. Arriving at the grand mansion, James couldn't help but admire the exquisite taste of Naomi's father. The meticulously landscaped gardens, the elegant architecture both inside and out, and the grandeur of the estate left James in awe, despite his familiarity with opulent surroundings. "It seems I'll
