The Billionaire's Real Daughter Chapter 20 "My Unrequited Love"
Harriet’s POV When I got back to the hotel I am staying at here in New York, the chairman called me through video call. [“Harriet, are you really fine now? Don’t you need to stay in the hospital for more days? I almost die when I heard that you and Cassius got into that horrible accident.”] His throaty voice sounds so worried, as if sobbing without tears. And even though I can only see his face through the screen, I could tell how anxious he is. ‘He must be so shocked after hearing the news. Especially when I was not alone during the accident. Now I feel guilty for getting Cassius into this.’ “Chairman,” I said in soothing voice. Whenever the chairman is under stress, whether it is because of work or his family, then it is my job as secretary to calm him down. ‘Coming from someone who caused the stress?’ “Did you drink your medicine? Chairman?” Grandpa Sorren thinly narrowed his eyes on me. [“I did. I did. Why are you worrying about me when it should be me who’s so worri

From the tall and glass buildings which are glistening in the sunlight and reflecting the light from the sun in different angles, Harriet looked at Zion’s back in front of her.They have gut wrenching and heart pumping escape together. But even if her breathing became steady, she pushed harder and went faster with him until she thought that her legs were going to explode.Time seemed slowed down.When her shoes pounded heavily across the ground causing mud-water slash up her leg, when Zi
The Billionaire's Real Daughter Chapter 22 "Promises"
Harriet’s love and the Fantell Architecture Firm. Zion believes that he has the two of these around his hands no matter what happened. His grandfather will give him the company and Harriet will stay by his side because she loves him. However… “The chairman asked me to convince Cassius to come back.” When he heard this from Harriet, he felt that someone appear to steal his possession. There are only two possible reason why the chairman wanted for Cassius to come back. It is either he missed his grandson so much or he wanted Cassius to inherit the company. ‘If he wanted Cassius to run the company, then why did he want me to work and study how to handle the Architecture firm?’ Zion’s hand around the cup tightened as he tried to guess his grandpa’s purpose. If he lost the company against Cassius, Zion can accept it. He doesn’t want to live in stressful life anyway. ‘But why does it feel that I need to compete against him for another and more special thing?’ Zion wondered while sta

However, she is not comfortable at her position right now.She looked at Zion, who is sitting at her left side, and at Cassius, who is sitting at her right side and next to the plane window. The two men have long legs and wide shoulders, making Harriet feels so stuffy while sitting in between.‘There are so many empty seats around. Why do we have to sit right next to each other?’ Harriet asked this internally.Zion is gawking at the opposite direction, as well as Cassius who stared at nothing but only the close window of the plane. He does not want to open the window because from above, he can see the vast part of the ocean which he hates.The ocean is not the only thing that Cassius hates. It is so obvious that he is also not fond of being
The Billionaire's Real Daughter Chapter 24.1 "A Jealous Friend"
Reese got scolded by the head maid. She got home so late after running an errand. Although she brought the berries that she had to buy from the supermarket, the head maid still got mad, saying that she’s being so irresponsible for her job. ‘I got into an accident after saving a man from the danger,’ Reese wanted to say this. But somehow, she cannot. She cannot seem to share the information about the rich man whom she saved a moment ago. Why? Because there’s someone who will benefit if the man’s identity was revealed. After getting scolded, Reese got back to her chambers together with the other maids of the mansion. “Hey, I heard you got scolded again,” May, the other maid, told Reese. Sitting in front of the mirror while brushing her hair, Reese stared at her co-workers who are laughing at her from behind. “This won’t happen if only you did not befriend miss Harriet,” Cris, the other maid, said her opinion. If a servant sided with Harriet, it’s likely means she will be the targ

“Why are you standing in front of the b*tch’s room like a thief?” asked Madell. Reese quickly bowed her head to give respect, and in order to butter her up. “G-Good evening young lady.” When she lifted her gaze, she saw Madell smirking at her. “I c-came here because Harriet asked me to check something in her room.” “Oh really? You two are really close, aren’t you?” When Madell stepped closer, Reese moved backward. “Which means, if I Harriet annoyed me, I can vent up my anger to you. Right? Because you are her friend.” Reese gulped hardly. ‘Madell will hit me. She will hit me,’ she thought. “I a-am Harriet’s friend but…” Pak! She could not continue her words because Madell slapped her cheek. The tingling sensation spread across her reddened cheek. Holding it, Reese looked at Madell in shocked silence as she is about to burst into tears. “Woah. This is refreshing,” Madell said before he grab a handful of Reese’s hair. “Ahhh!” Reese winced in pain. Madell dragged her to her fe
The Billionaire's Real Daughter Chapter 25 "It Awaits Them"
Harriet’s POV I woke up feeling a tingling pain in my neck. As I forced my heavy eyes opened, their dropped shut several times before the image of my surroundings went clear. ‘I am still inside the airplane.’ As far as I can remember, I am sitting on the seat between Cassius and Zion. Which means, if I fell asleep and found myself leaning my head onto my right sight, then I am leaning onto someone’s else shoulder and not by the window. ‘Who is it again?!’ Trying to regain my memory, Cassius’ image appeared inside my mind. ‘Oh my god. I am leaning to Cassius’ shoulder right now!’ Our present positions were almost the last that I could hope to happen. Grave embarrassment seized upon me, and the chill of shame made my head shut down above me like a pile of cloud. I felt the pounding of my heart, which wasn’t cause by being overwhelm but rather because of huge disgrace to myself. My brain is in the mess, like it sat on a chair without seat-belt and the roller coaster ride start

In a situation like this, she could not do anything but stay on the ground while looking at him.“Where are you going? I think we have things to settle first,” Zion uttered.“Z-Zion. I…”“Don’t bother making any excuses. It won’t work. I remembered everything.”“I k-know,” she said before she started chuckling sarcastically. “I know that you would not forgive me for fooling you.

In exchange, Zion had to marry Reese even if she’s an impostor. Zion gambled his whole life just to protect Harriet. But in the end, Harriet died. Why didn’t he hear anything about this beforehand?

I guessed my legs were still moving, but I couldn’t feel my toes anymore. The water snugged in around me.My limbs were willing to win this fight. But soon, they decided to rest.I took a deep breath as the water closed in around me.‘I’ll never see my father again.’‘And Cassius, he will cry if I die, right?’The light filtering down through the water mocked me. A slight pressure pushed on my chest from the inside.My clothes swirled uselessly around me, weighing down even further. A ringing filled my ears, but otherwise it’s quiet. My lungs burnt. I clamped my shut trying to kick my legs. The urge to breathe is unbearable. My chest was going to explode.‘No.No…I don’t want to die again.I didn’t come back to be in this state again.Please…’As I prayed so hard, I watche
The Billionaire's Real Daughter Chapter 206 "Dying Again"
Cassius shoved his hand inside his pocket. He made sure that he brought the ring with him before going to Harriet’s mansion. He wanted to rent a huge place to do his proposal. But he changed his mind. If there’s one good place to do it, then it is the Wyatt’s garden. Smiling, Cassius entered the mansion. As he stepped inward, Cris, the maid, stopped when she saw him. “Sir Cassius!” she gasped. Cassius looked at the maid who called him in a surprised tone. Cris ran towards him. She was very confused. “W-Why are you here, Sir?” Cris asked. Cassius forged a cough as he shyly answered, “W-Where’s Harriet? I came here to meet her.” “Huh?” That’s weird. As far as Cris can remember, it was Cassius who texted Harriet to meet him in the Damsel park. But, here he is, looking for her. “This morning, I lost my phone. So, I was worried if Harriet was waiting for my text or call,” Cassius added. It was true that he lost his phone this morning, but he was only saying an excuse to see Harr
The Billionaire's Real Daughter Chapter 206 "Damsel Park"
Harriet couldn’t sleep well that night. She rolled onto her bed, thinking how and when would Cassius propose to her. She was very excited. “You look like you’re in a good mood,” Astell noticed while eating breakfast with his daughter. Harriet smiled at him and said, “Yes. It is because I found something that I shouldn’t see. Now, I am excited.” Astell chuckled. Despite everything that happened lately, he was glad that his daughter is feeling alright. “What is your plan today?” Astell asked. “I am going to check the new project you are working on. You told me to learn more, so I am doing my best to follow your steps, father.” “Really? I don’t want to force you to take this path. If you want something to achieve, you can have it.” “No, father. Ever since I worked as Grandpa’s secretary, I knew that I love this job. Please, let me enjoy learning from your line of work.” At first, Astell doubted if Harriet would really like to continue his journey as the owner of Wyatt corporation
The Billionaire's Real Daughter Chapter 205 "Unfinished"
Harriet’s POV It’s been one month since that day. I would never forget the time I saw the truth in my own eyes. That moment when Zion was begging his father to come back. [“Poor child. I did my best. But I guess you are more qualified to teach him.”] Those were the murderer's last words before disappeared. All along, we suspected Sherly, Finn, Madell or Reese. In the end, we discovered that the murderer was neither of them, but residing in one of them. It was Finn’s personality, Victor. When Cassius and I arrived in the mansion to save the Chairman, we only saw Grandpa gasping for air on the floor while holding his neck, and Zion begging his father. It was quite a sight to remember; the sight where the future changed and no one died. The Chairman was taken to the hospital. Finn either, before the police took him and interrogated. When Grandpa regained his consciousness, he told us everything, from the fact that Victor killed Diana in order to protect the police. Until now, Gran
The Billionaire's Real Daughter Chapter 204 "Father and Sons"
Sorren called Finn after meeting Elona. The prosecutor was still interrogating Madell, and Reese was on the run. Yet, Sorren does not want another day regretting not knowing the truth. More than the corporation’s reputation, Sorren prioritized saving his son from the nightmare and protecting the people around him. Thus, he sat in front of Finn, with Jasmine tea settled on the center table. No one took a sip as they talked in silent arguments with their eyes. Just like in the original future. “Why did you call me? I was very busy, father. Also, it is also weird for you to look for me when I know how much you hate me.” “Why did you do that, Finn?” Sorren asked. Finn stared at his father and tilted his head. “What do you mean?” Sorren gritted his teeth as he stared at his son. “Why did you kill Diana?” Finn’s eyes widened. He lowered his head and acted, “I don’t know what you are talking about. Diana left me a long time ago. She’s not dead!” “W-What?” Then with his head ha
The Billionaire's Real Daughter Chapter 203 "Memories and Not a Dream"
A week ago, Zion met with the owner of Elona boutique. Sitting across Zion, Elona smiled. She stared at the young man who resembled his parents, the handsome Finn and the gorgeous Sherly. Then, with a grin on her lips, she said, “It seemed that everyone from that family came and visited my shop. The father, the mother and the daughter. And now, It’s you. It made me feel like I am already part of the family.” Zion observed Elona’s sneer before he mimicked her expression; the kind of beam that wouldn’t reach the eyes. “To be a real part of our family, meeting my father, mother and sister isn’t enough. There is one person you should meet,” Zion responded. “Do you mean you?” “Somehow. But there’s one more person. That’s the head of the house, my Grandpa, the Chairman of Fantell group.” Elona stopped for a moment before she chuckled. “Wait a minute. Is that a threat? Did you come here to threaten your father’s mistress?” “No. Even if you are his real mistress, I wouldn’t waste my
