The Billionaire's Mistake 23
Johannes's POV I stared at the woman beside me. She's sleeping soundly. I am playing with her hair, slightly brushing them between my fingers. How could someone have such soft hair? And it smells really soothing as well. Man. My girlfriend is the best there is. Woah. I still cannot believe how natural that sounded to me. She... she likes me too. At last, after courting this woman for a longer time than I expected, I finally heard her yes. It's overwhelming, especially after what happened in the parking lot. I do not want to stick my nose more into that business. I want to respect Nathalie's privacy as much as I can. I do not really want to invade her life too much more than necessary. First of all, we are yet to be tied to each other. We do not have rings on our fingers just yet that will make it possible for each of us to go through each other's life. I... I want to discover things about her one at a time. I sit up when she opens her eyes. Her ocean-blue eyes would forever loo

"What business do you have here?" Johannes coldly asked. He was sure he had made it clear last time that the woman should never approach him again. It was a hassle on his part, a burden that he longed let go of. "Don't be like that, Johannes," she smiled, glancing over Nathalie, who was silently watching the two of them. The woman furrowed her brows, it was not the first time she had seen the woman, and she was sure that she had seen her somewhere. Her eyes widened, and she pointed at her, "The car accident!" She exclaimed. Nathalie stared at her and realized she was the woman who bumped into her car! Johannes wrinkled his nose and stared at Nathalie with questioning eyes. "Remember when you thought I was in an accident? She bumped into my car that day, and I had to call the insurance. That was why I was late to arrive in my condo," Nathalie thought she needed to explain. Johannes kept his mouth shut and stared at the woman in front of them. He sighed and held Nathalie's hands. "Le

Everything was going the right way in the past months of Johannes and Nathalie being together. They are official, yet no one knows about their relationship. Only a few close to the two of them know that they are dating each other officially. "When are we going to let everyone know about us?" Johannes asked, staring at the woman who was busy reviewing the content of the meeting this morning. He was annoyed when Nathalie ignored him and continued reading through the pile of papers. Johannes was lying down on her lap, but her attention was on the files she was reading. "Nathalie," he called her name. The woman moved the papers away, giving way for her to see Johannes's pouting face. He looked like a child who was dying to get his parent's attention. What a baby! "Hmm?" Nathalie asked before looking at the papers again. She even held a pencil and encircled the parts that needed revisions. Johannes was finally irritated by that, and he sat up to level with her face. He snatched the file

Johannes carefully placed Nathalie on the bed while the woman clung her hands around his neck. They kiss passionately as Johannes pushes her gently. She moaned when the man removed her garments. She slowly pulled his necktie and unbuttoned his shirt. Johannes smirked. He does not know that the woman has this side to her. He was about to kiss her again when she winced in pain. Johannes panicked when he saw her wincing. He suddenly furrowed his brows as he checked her condition. "Why? What's the problem?" he asked. Nathalie stared at his worried eyes and forced a smile. "Sorry, but it really hurts," "Want me to massage it?" Johannes asked without hesitation. He placed his hands on her belly and slowly massaged it. Nathalie stared at him, and she subconsciously played with the tip of his hair. She realized it when those amber-colored eyes stared through her soul! "I--" she was interrupted when her phone suddenly rang and filled the room with the noise it created. Nathalie reached

"Why?" Johannes asked back. He furrowed his brows as he stared at the woman asking him why he was not prying into her life. "Are you kidding me? Women would be glad I am not invading their privacy," he let out a chortle. Nathalie stared at him and looked away. She smiled and nodded, "You're right," She sounded like there were still lingering words that should leave her mouth, but she kept silent. That night ended with an awkward silence between the couple. A week had passed since that day, and now Nathalie was in perfect condition. She's wearing an elegant dress paired with a high stiletto. She glanced at herself one last time in the mirror before leaving her unit. Johannes was waiting for her from the outside, wearing a white tuxedo. He was mesmerized when he saw the woman walking in his direction. Johannes stared at her perfectly shaped body that complimented her white dress. "You look... stunning," he grinned before reaching her hand to kiss her. Nathalie flushed in red as Joha

Nathalie's POV I could still feel the coldness of my entire being when our eyes met. That suffocating feeling in my throat made it hard to catch my breath. Hah. It had been years, and yet he could still affect me to this extent. Paxton Hiro Alejandro. I never knew that we would cross paths again. After ten years at that. And while I was a girlfriend of his cousin... his cousin, huh? He's Johannes's cousin... I knew he was no ordinary when we first met, but I had no idea he was this big. This big... Fuck. I could feel my insides twisting when I remembered the past. All the smiles, laughter, and tears he brought me. I want to forget these things badly. I thought I had forgotten them already. The past made me feel secure and appreciated in a world of selfishness and cowardness. When the world was against me, when fate was trying to provoke me... he came. He came as if it was his sole purpose. Paxton... came as if he was the only good thing that had happened in the life of the fift

It was an ordinary day. The sun rose high as the clouds surrounded it. The blue sky was as blue as it always was. But Nathalie is looking anxious on that great day. She was walking back and forth inside the office. Johannes wasn't around, he was on a business trip in Hawaii, and he would be gone for three days at most. Nathalie glanced at her phone and clicked her tongue. Still, there was no response from her brother. She had been calling him since the morning, but he was not answering his phone. It was unusual for him to ignore Nathalie since she was always busy with work and stuff. Nathalie gave up and called Harries. After a few rings, she picked up the phone, "Harries!" [Must you really shout my name like that? Jeez, you're gonna damage my eardrums, Nathalie. Why? Aren't you well-informed that I had an eight-hour surgery last night? I want to go back to sleep, so make this quick,] Nathalie could imagine her best friend crumpling her forehead while cursing her inside her head.

Johannes's POV Damn. I can't sleep. It's past midnight, and my system is still wide awake. It's unusual for me to have trouble sleeping since Nathalie and I became official. I don't know what kind of witchcraft her being brought me. I just felt calm every single time. Nathalie Taylor. The woman I never thought I'd like to this extent. She's someone praiseworthy in every aspect. She does everything almost perfectly, and it would be a surprise if you would even find a minor flaw. She's the perfect secretary for me... a perfect girlfriend, as I hope. My family likes her. Abuelo is very fond of her as well. Something that they never showed when I was still with Via. Viacienne, my first girlfriend and fiancee. The very first woman who caught my heart. The very first to make me a man. Damn. Fuck me for thinking this right now. Not when it had been years since I last mentioned her name in my head. This is all because of her sister. Vie. I knew I had been too good with that kid, but I

The Billionaire's Mistake END
“Where are we going, Dad?” Julian asked his father while still yawning. He had just woken up from his afternoon nap when his father picked him up from his grandparent’s mansion. Julian Nathaniel Alejandro, Johannes felt proud while staring at his son’s ocean-blue eyes. “We’re going to the cemetery,” “Is Mom there?” Johannes looked at him with sad eyes and smiled, “Yes, Julian. We’re going to see Mom there,” Johannes fixed his son’s seatbelt and started the car’s engine. It had been seven years since Nathalie birthed Julian. He’s a big boy now who hates it when Johannes kisses him on the cheek. He used to giggle when his father did it, but now that he turned seven, he would glare at Johannes whenever he did that, especially when they were in a public place. Julian looked like Johannes, but his eyes took after Nathalie. Those deep blues of ocean that always enchanted Johannes. He could not help but stare at them whenever he had the chance. “Are we going to visit Abuelo too?” the

“Uncle Ken,” Yohan sat beside him. Johannes was still staring at the door where the woman had left. The harsh sound of the rain was worrying him. ‘Nathalie hates the rain,’ he thought to himself. He furrowed his brows and realized that the fact that the woman hated the rain popped up out of his head out of nowhere. Was it a memory? Did he remember that from the past? “Uncle Ken?” Yohan called him again since Johannes did not respond the first time. Johannes then looked at him and messed up his hair. “Come here, bud,” Yohan sat on Johannes’s lap and lowered his face. Yohan rubbed his hands against each other and then looked at Johannes with teary eyes. “Did Mama make a mistake to Uncle Ken?” he asked, crying now. “Yohan is the bad boy because I lied,” “What?” Johannes asked, furrowing his brows now since he could not understand him all too well. Yohan jumped from his seat and took something from his pocket. “Yohan was mad when he learned that you were getting married. I thought

One week had passed since Nathalie and Johannes had a check-up. Nathalie is fine now, but the latter seemed different. Johannes stared at her sleeping figure. He had been doing this for almost a week now. After what he witnessed last time, Johannes always found himself inside her bedroom. Staying beside her while Nathalie cries in her sleep. Johannes could not understand what it was that pulled him to the woman he had lost memories of. Should he open himself for her, or should he cut every string connected to her? Johannes could not decide. "Nathalie... Nathalie Taylor," he muttered *** The chairman handed over the folder to General Smith. He’s a companion he had when he was just starting out, thus, confirming the trust between them. “We had been trying to figure out these cases before... I can’t believe such a young woman could do all these evil things,” “She’s crazy, Smith,” “Are you sure you want to hand it over to us?” General Smith asked the chairman. Miraflores Alej

"You're here again," Yael tried to get up but gave up when she felt an exhausting pain inside her stomach. It was so painful that her eyes teared up. Johannes panicked and ran to her. Worrying, he told Yael, "This is why I always come here. I told you you don't have to get up when I come here. How could you be so stubborn!?" He shouted to the poor woman. Yarl stared at his enraged face and then averted her gaze, "I told you you don't have to come here... you... you found your home, Johannes," "Ken. You gave me that name. Use that," "Johannes—" "Are you really trying to make me mad? Johannes here, Johannes that! I fucking cannot remember anything related to that name, so damn it, just treat me as that penniless Ken before!" Johannes frustratedly told her. Yael had realized her mistake. She stared into his eyes and tried to read his confused emotion. Yael had met Johannes when he was still in the hospital. She assisted Johannes back then, and he had felt indebted to her kindness.

Nathalie’s POV I was about to get inside the mansion when I saw a familiar figure, but I doubt it was him. It would be impossible to see him out of his cave. “Nathalie Taylor!” I turned around and saw Harries waving at me. It had been so long since we last saw each other. She even nagged me because I was behaving unlike myself these past few months. “Harries!” I hugged her, and she kissed me on the cheek. Harries still treats me like a child, really. I motioned her to sit on the chair and asked a waiter to serve us food. “How was your trip?” “Terrible,” I furrowed my brows; this woman loves traveling like how she loves medicine. To hear her condemn her last trio like this, something must have had occurred. She rolled her eyes when a man greeted her with a kiss. Now I get it. Harries must have felt upset with her husband, Loki. He’s a businessman like Johannes though he majored in the medicine industry, the reason why he eventually met my best friend through the same acquaintanc

Cohen’s POV I could swear I never intended to attend this fucking party. There were a lot of familiar faces though I am sure that they didn’t know who I was. Sebastian is doing his thing of introducing me to everyone he knows, which is practically everyone at this event. “Sebastian,” “Hmm? Wait. Mr. Alfredo! Hey! Long time no see. How is it going with the firm?” he chatted with yet another man in a suit. Sebastian seems friendlier than the last time I saw him. I distanced myself a little since it would be a nuisance if he asked me to talk to his acquaintances. I sat by the bar, and the bartender gave me a tequila. I smirked and greeted him with proud eyes. He dares challenge me? Well, I have a pretty high tolerance when it comes to these types of drinks. I was enjoying myself when the host announced that the party was about to start. I could vomit at the sight of the host of this event. What the hell? Is this party about them? Sebastian, you idiot. I should not have mentioned Nath

Cohen’s POV It felt strange waking up on a soft mattress. It had been a long since I last slept in one. I don’t know why it feels empty though this room is not even that big, to begin with. It’s cold, really. Winter is knocking on the corner of this house. I stood up after lazily staring at my ceiling for hours, trying to figure out what the hell was wrong with me today. It should be another day when I should visit the eatery and cook for them, but for some reason, I picked up my phone and told them I’d have to take a leave for today. When I went to the kitchen, Caleb was already there, cooking breakfast. He glanced at me and smirked, “Fancy seeing you wake up late,” I ignored him and went to make my coffee. He seemed to be in the mood today that he irritated me this early. “Where’s mom?” I sat on the edge of the table as I looked at him over my cup of coffee. Caleb turned around and shrugged his shoulders. I furrowed my brows with that. “You don’t know?” “No, I mean, she asked me

"A party?" Ken just reached home after visiting Yael in the hospital. He did not want to leave her, but his family insisted that he stays at home. Yohan was with a nanny since he wanted to stay beside his mother. Johannes stared at his parents with a confused expression, "What party? Do I have to participate in one?" he asked again, removing his coat. It was snowing outside. The first snow was last night, and the whole city was covered in white the following day. Joaquin and Beatrice smiled at Johannes, "This is to celebrate your return, son," Joaquin said. Ken furrowed his brows and sat on the couch. He stretched his neck. When he opened his eyes, he looked at his parents and shook his head. "I hate parties." "You don't even remember that," Clinton, who came from the entrance, interrupted his cousin's refusal. Clinton gave Beatrice a box of a new set of tea from China. The woman smiled at him and then turned to her son again. "Clinton is right, Johannes," "Ken. I told you to call

Nathalie visited the orphanage again when she felt well. She brought a lot of toys and food that she bought from the market. The kids were happy to see her, chanting the fairy song they had made to dedicate it to her. Nathalie was looking around, and Olivia noticed that she was looking for something, “Are you looking for something, Nathalie?” “Oh, ahm... I... I was just wondering where Yael and Johannes—I mean Ken are,” she shyly replied. She had heard from the nurse that Yael had been discharged, so she assumed that the woman was already feeling better. Nathalie thought they would be here since it seemed like Johannes liked being around the children, but afternoon came, and there was no shadow of him, Yael, or her son. “Yael? Oh dear, you haven’t heard the news yet? She was brought to the city to have medications, her illness relapsed, and she needed better treatment,” Olivia told her. Nathalie was shocked. She could not utter a reply and just forced herself to smile. Nathalie we
