The Billionaire's Obsession 19
CHAPTER 19"MA'AM," Shelton said to Yza, arms crossed and lost in thought.She leaned lazily against the back seat of the car, seemingly indifferent. Her gaze, initially fixed outside the window, shifted to the man seated in the passenger's seat.Her eyebrows arched slightly, prompting him to hand her a paper bag bearing the Samsung S8 logo.Her brows arched higher. "What's that?" she asked softly.He smiled before replying. "Boss asked me to give it to you," he said.Samsung? A cellphone? S8? Oh my goodness! That's expensive!She felt as if the air left her lungs, recalling the ridiculous price of the device Shelton held in his hand—forty thousand pesos. Good grief!"No, return it to him," she said, turning her gaze back out the window. "Even my outdated Nokia got stolen at that high-class hospital. What more with this forty-thousand-peso gadget? The thief might chop off my hand if I don't give it to them.""I can't, Ma'am. He’ll shoot me," Shelton responded immediately.Her brows fu

CHAPTER 20Yza’s grandmother remained silent as she entered the hospital room. The old woman gazed at her with a look suggesting she had much to say or inquire, but it seemed difficult for her to express. Does her grandmother know something? Yza thought so, given the peculiar way she was being observed by the old lady.Yza smiled, sensing her grandmother’s emotions. When the two helpers finally bid farewell to return to the mansion, the old woman spoke, “Yza, my grandchild,” calling her to sit beside the bed.Eli seemed on the verge of tears immediately, prompting Yza’s own tears to flow. They were quite shallow emotions, but she was extremely sentimental.“I have something to tell you, ‘La,” she said, leaning slightly.Her grandmother held her hand, and she looked into the old woman’s eyes. “I know. Adamson told me this afternoon before picking you up from school. I’m sorry you got caught up in my situation. I wish you hadn’t agreed to buy a donor because I don’t know if you and he w

PROLOGUE and Chapter 1At ten o'clock in the evening, Yza stepped out onto the balcony of the boarding house she was renting. She rested her arms on the wooden railings, feeling the wind play with her damp and very dark hair. She gazed at her surroundings because sleep eluded her, so she chose to stay outside and let the breeze calm her.She glanced at her friend Tiffany, who was sound asleep, and envied her contentment. Yza, with only a year left in her studies, struggled through life. There were times when she thought that if she were just wealthy, her life wouldn't be this challenging.She accepted all sorts of jobs just to support her education and help her grandmother, who was her only family in the world and getting older. Yza aspired to become an accountant, but she felt that her dream was slipping further away with just one year left, due to the hardships.Her gaze wandered to a large apartment building across from where they lived. It was the opposite of their place, built fr

Yza hugged the bed sheets, curtains, pillowcases, and comforters while standing at the door of Adam’s room, but she couldn’t bring herself to knock.Good grief. Her hands were trembling even though she wasn’t cold.She was nervous, and she didn’t even know why. Why did her employer have such unusual eye color, and why was he so mysterious? Now, her heart was racing. She hadn’t even entered yet, and she was already struggling to breathe, gasping when the door suddenly opened.She tightly gripped the extension rod of the hoover as she made eye contact with her employer, her chest tightening once again when she saw that he was only wrapped in a towel at the waist.She quickly lowered her head. How shameless of him.At first, she wanted to turn around and run away, but she felt like she was frozen to the spot.“Get in,” Adam said formally, easing the door open.Even though she was scared, Yza still followed. He probably wouldn’t do anything bad to her.As soon as she entered, she immediat

Chapter 3Yza caught a glimpse of a woman outside while she was wiping tables in the living room. She heard the voice of a woman shouting, “Adam, you son of a bitch! Get out! You animal!” The woman’s voice was so loud that Yza could hear it despite the mansion’s glass surroundings. It was clear that the woman was angry, given the bulging veins in her neck. Yza swallowed nervously and touched her own neck, feeling as if her vocal cords might snap, not the scandalous woman outside who seemed to have given birth to Satan himself with her string of profanities.“Damn you! You animal! Get out of there! You demon, Adam! Fuck you! You’re a son of a bitch! Son of a slut! Get out!!!” the woman continued to scream, almost hysterical with anger.Yza was perplexed about the woman’s identity and furrowed her brow. She appeared sophisticated but had an extremely sharp tongue, spewing foul language like a sewer.The woman was approaching the open door, and Yza tried to rush to close it to prevent he

CHAPTER 4Yza was walking down the hallway towards Adam's room after coming home from the hospital around six in the evening. The result of her CT scan was okay, and her grandmother needed her attention, so she was going to collect the cash her boss had mentioned. It was likely that the young man had already left since he had mentioned going to another country. That's probably why he left the hospital without saying goodbye, in such a hurry.After that, another nurse came to take her for some tests, and DJ accompanied her for a few hours. They chatted during that time. Then, one of Adam's men came to fetch her. DJ insisted on being the one to take her home, but Adam's employee was adamant about following his boss' orders that no one else should pick her up except for Adam's staff.She wasn't seriously hurt, but, of course, she followed her employer's instructions. Her face was reddened from the slaps she received, and she had bruises on her arms and neck. She acknowledged that it wasn

CHAPTER 5As soon as Yza entered he hallway, she felt like her heart was about to explode when she saw the door to Adamson's room. In the end, she chose to obey orders and follow rather than lie. She nervously bit her finger as she took small steps closer to the young man's room.She took a deep breath when she stood in front of the door before attempting to knock on it. Was it her fault earlier for thinking he had left the country? Apparently, he didn't leave and was doing something foolish inside his room with a woman. And then, they forgot to close the door, so she assumed there was no one inside.Was there still someone inside?"Damn you! This isn't enough! I want more of you, Adam!" She heard the woman's voice screaming, causing Yza to flinch. There was the woman.She didn't immediately hear a response from the person she was talking to. After a while, her employer spoke."But I don't want more of you. Get out. I don't want to see your face anymore. I paid you more than enough f

CHAPTER 6Yza gasped and screamed when something outside Adamson’s room walk-in closet broke. Her heart raced with fear as her hands trembled, especially when another loud noise, as if something was being slammed into the wall, followed. She went outside, clutching Adam’s polo shirts as she hurried out.Oh my goodness!She bit her lip as she saw the center table overturned and shattered. She could clearly see the darkness in his master’s face as he held a chair, seemingly ready to slam it into the wall. Just earlier, she had overheard him speaking on the phone, giving orders, but why was he now losing control like this?Did he have an enemy?She exclaimed, crying as she stood there, afraid that his anger might be directed at her.“Oh!” she screamed, flinching as he aggressively slammed the chair into the wall, shattering it into pieces.His dim, piercing eyes gazed at her, making her knees tremble with fear. His jaw tightened as he stared at her, and she was afraid that his anger migh

Chapter 18Yza glanced at the walk-in closet’s door as Adam entered, holding a folder with the marriage certificate. They exchanged looks before his gaze shifted to the night dresses she was inspecting. His mysterious smirk returned, and she averted her eyes, feeling as though he was fixated on her wearing those sexy outfits every night.She shook her head abruptly. "Is there a problem, Yza?" he suddenly asked."N-No? I was just going to see grandma. Is it okay? You understand that—""That what?" he interrupted from behind, causing her to turn. He was taking off his T-shirt, and she involuntarily swallowed at the sight of his well-defined muscles, even from behind."Um, that I won't be sleeping here, right? Will you be upset? I know you bought me, but..."She entered into marriage for financial reasons, devoid of love. It seems Adam's proposal was merely to avoid offending her, yet she is aware of his potential to easily seek annulment when he's done with the arrangement."That I need

CHAPTER 17 Yza looked at the door of the walk in closet when Adam entered there carrying the folder with the marriage contract. The two of them looked at each other before he glanced at the night dresses he was looking at. He has that mysterious and obscure smirk again. His eyes returned to her so she looked away. It’s as if the contents of his brain are the way she looks wearing those sexy clothes every night. She shook his head violently. “Is there a problem, Yza?” Adam suddenly asked. “Huh? W-Nothing. I’m going to grandma. Is that okay? You understand, don’t you—” she couldn’t continue. “What?” he asked behind her so she turned around. She saw that he was taking off the t-shirt he was wearing so she swallowed when she caught a glimpse of his body. Damn his muscles. Even his back is perfectly defined. Yza immediately turned around when she felt that he was about to face her. “I can’t sleep here tonight. Will you be angry? I know that you b-bought me but because…

Chapter 16Yza continued into the mansion upon getting out of the car, leaving Adam chatting with Shelton near the car’s door. Despite not wanting to leave him, she hesitated to eavesdrop on their conversation. She wasn't the one to gossip. Later, she might even get scolded or worse, cry about it. Best to avoid it."Take away his license to practice law, or I'll shoot that jerk," Adam's stern words reached her, causing her to freeze by the sofa, hand over her chest. Adam, with furrowed brows, looked undeniably irritable, yet oddly handsome.Lawyer? Whose lawyer could be his enemy? she wondered. Only one lawyer had drawn Adam's sharp gaze earlier, the one relentlessly interviewing her. They had just come from the judge who signed their marriage contract, then Adam took her to the De Lorenzo law firm. Who among those lawyers irked him? They all seemed respectful, almost unable to function properly in his imposing presence.Shelton paused, noticing her gaze. Adam stared at her with inten

CHAPTER 15Yza was extremely surprised when suddenly their defense group entered the canteen, shouting excitedly. Tiffany led them in a group hug, and they were all so joyful. However, when she saw Adam’s serious expression, focusing his eyes on them. She felt a bit agitated, fearing he might get angry because of their noise.“This calls for a celebration! We’re ready for the training! We have the highest grade, and you’re the ‘A’ in the group,” Jane said to her.She pointed at herself, puzzled, and asked, “Me?”Unnoticed by her companions, she glanced at Adam, who was now intently examining the Kikiam on his plate, as if it were not food but trash. He had a furrowed brow and prodded it with his stick, looking at it as if it were some strange object from another planet, not a meal.“Do you want some, s-sir?” she asked finally, making her friends stop their nudging and stare at Adamson.He looked at her. “Revise the question. You’re making me old,” he said with a grin.She quickly unde

CHAPTER 14"UY, what's that?" Tiffany nudged Yza while she was sitting in the canteen after their defense. Her friend was carrying a soft drink and four sandwiches, while Yza had only one. She had lost her appetite, especially now that she saw the marriage contract between her and Adam. Her boss moved so quickly. How did he manage to obtain a CENOMAR without her knowledge? What kind of magic did he perform? Money could indeed make people do or acquire anything they wanted.What she didn't know was whether their marriage was genuine or just for show. Maybe the document in front of her was not even registered at the municipal office. She looked at her friend and said, "Marriage contract," with no emotion.Tiffany sat down beside her and began to eat while glancing at the open folder. "For whom—yours and DJ's?" she asked, causing Yza's face to contort in frustration. "Don't mention him to me, Tiff. He's despicable. I caught him with not just one but two other women," she recounted in dis

CHAPTER 13 ADAM couldn’t believe what he just got in mind when he heard about Yza’s problem. The woman he had been watching for a long time since he saw her come to his mansion about a month ago. Yza has that pretty face he wasn’t able to brush off his mind who were talking to his trusted Grandma Eli… Adam was going down the stairs while buttoning when he heard the unfamiliar voice of a woman in the kitchen of the mansion. It was giggling and he felt like it was still young. “Boss, ten minutes before the flight leaves.” Shelton said to him while standing at the main door but he just raised his hand as a sign that he should not remind her anymore. He looked again at the opening of the kitchen but because his kitchen was so big, he couldn’t easily see the helpers there because the kitchen and working table were at the other end. “Who’s here?” He asked the staff with raised eyebrows. “Ah, Grandma Eli’s grandchild, boss.” He was still smiling so his eyes suddenly became sharp

CHAPTER 12Yza was fast asleep on the single bed, which was positioned against the wall. She held onto a pillow tightly, her body curled up to fend off the cold from the air conditioning earlier. However, she now felt warm and something was draped over her trembling body. She had been too lazy to get up, so she just clung to the pillow. But why did she suddenly have a blanket now? Who had covered her?She had to wake up early because it was her defense today. As she remembered that, she jolted awake. She closed her eyes again due to the harsh light coming from the ceiling, but she opened them once more when she thought she saw the silhouette of a man sitting alone on the sofa, facing her.Rapist! Her mind screamed, and her eyes widened in fear. She even pinched herself. However, it wasn’t a rapist sitting in her grandmother’s hospital room, but her boss.Had she made it home? She glanced at him; he was pretending to sit on the sofa, staring at her. She immediately felt self-conscious
