The Billionaire's Sassy Bride Journey To Killton
Feeling distraught, Lisa walked along the hallway, her mind racing with thoughts of what to do next. As she was about to walk out of the entrance, she heard a familiar voice call out to her."Lisa!" Leah's voice rang out, stopping Lisa in her tracks. She turned to see Leah walking towards her with a smile."Hey Lisa, What are you doing here? Did you come to see me?" Leah asked, her tone friendly.Lisa shook her head. "No, Leah. I needed to meet up with Ethan," she replied, her voice sounding hollow even to her own ears.Leah paused for a moment, her smile fading slightly. "You know Ethan?" she asked, surprised.Lisa nodded. "Yes, I do," she replied, her thoughts still preoccupied with her current situation.Leah's eyes widened in shock. "Wow, do you mean that? How come I never found out?" she asked, her curiosity piqued.Lisa shrugged, not wanting to reveal too much. "We went to high school together," she said simply.Leah's expression turned thoughtful. "Hey, Lisa," she said, changing

Leah sat at her desk, her eyes fixed on the computer screen in front of her. However, her mind was preoccupied with thoughts of the president, Ethan and Mel the employee under her. Leah noticed their absence from the office, which was unusual since they rarely took time off together. She couldn't help but wonder if there was more to their relationship than just a professional one.Her thoughts drifted back to a time when she had scolded Mel for being late, and Ethan had come to her defense. Leah remembered the protective and caring nature that Ethan had displayed towards Mel. It had left her with a nagging feeling that there might be something going on between them.A few weeks later, when Mel took a day off without informing her, Leah had reported it to Ethan. To her surprise, he had defended Mel, indicating that he had permitted her to take the day off. Leah was taken aback by this since it was unlike Ethan to intervene in such a small matter. Leah was struggling to concentrate on

Mel's stomach rumbled loudly as she realized how famished she was. She hadn't eaten anything since breakfast and it was already past lunchtime. Ethan noticed her discomfort and asked if she would like some snacks and drinks that he had brought along. Mel gratefully accepted and began to munch on the chips and sip on the cold drink."Thank you so much, Ethan. You always know how to save the day," she said with a smile feeling her energy levels slowly increasing"Ethan nodded, pleased with himself. "I always come prepared," he replied chuckling before changing the topic. "So, have you reported the L logo company as I advised you to?"Mel's face fell slightly, and she let out a sigh. "Yes, I forwarded the evidence to the local environmental protection agency. It's their responsibility to ensure that companies don't engage in activities that could harm society."Ethan listened intently and then shook his head. "Good job, Mel. But I have to tell you that emailing those bodies won't work. T

"Lisa, are you in there? We need to talk about the dinner party tonight." Lisa heard her father's voice and got up from her bed, feeling a sense of dread. She was still looking forward to attending the event as her father's representative since it seemed that was the only way to get in contact with Ethan, but the hotel where it was supposed to take place was several hours away, and she was afraid she might not be able to make it in time.She opened the door to her room and saw her father standing in the hallway, looking excited. He walked into her room and sat down on the edge of her bed, patting the spot next to him for Lisa to sit down too. She complied, still feeling anxious about what he was going to say."I've got some great news for you," he said, beaming with a smile. Lisa looked at him Lisa looked at him skeptically, wondering what he was talking about. He pulled out his phone and showed her a message he had just received. "The dinner party would likely get postponed until to

As Mel woke up to a new day, she felt refreshed and rejuvenated after a restful night's sleep. She stretched out her arms and legs, feeling the tension in her muscles release. Reflecting on the previous day's long journey, she couldn't help but recall how exhausted she had been, barely remembering how she had made it to her hotel room.As Mel got out of bed and stood up, her thoughts shifted towards the upcoming day. Anticipating someone knocking on her door soon, she decided to quickly take a shower. As she turned on the faucet, warm water splashed onto her skin, washing away the remnants of the previous day's journey.Under the showerhead, Mel's mind wandered to her conversation with Ethan during their lunch together. She remembered how he had paid close attention to everything she said, and how they had easily conversed about various topics.However, as she continued to rinse off, a faint recollection of Ethan helping her to her room flooded her mind. She could vaguely recall leanin

Ethan barged in and saw Mel on the floor with the hefty man approaching her. "Who the hell are you?" Ethan demanded angrily.The man looked up and sneered at Ethan. "None of your business, pal. Just a little misunderstanding with this pretty little thing," he said, gesturing towards Mel. "Now why don't you just turn around and mind your own business?"Mel scrambled to her feet, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment and anger. "He's lying," she said to Ethan, ignoring the man standing huge before her "He mistook me for someone else and wouldn't let me leave. I was trying to get away from him." Ethan's eyes narrowed as he took in the situation. He didn't like the way the man was leering at Mel, from the way the man talked, Ethan could tell the nature of the person he was already. One that saw himself high above others with little or no regard for them as far as he pleased himself. "She's not your slave," he said, his voice low and dangerous. "Let her go, now."The man laughed as if he

Lisa paused, suspicious about Mel's statement. "May I know who your boyfriend is?" she asked.Lisa's question made Mel raise an eyebrow. She wasn't sure what to make of Lisa's curiosity, but given her previous snarky comments, Mel didn't feel like sharing any personal information with her."Well, you'll find out soon enough," Mel replied curtly, her tone indicating that she wasn't interested in continuing the conversation.Lisa frowned, sensing Mel's reluctance to share. She tried to read Mel's expression for any hints, but Mel's face was now a blank slate."Right," Lisa said, a hint of disappointment in her voice. "Well, I guess I'll see you at the dinner then, that's if you eventually manage to make it there, she said, her tone harsh and voice dripping with condescension. After speaking in an ill manner to Mel, she turned and began walking away.Mel's eyes followed Lisa as she walked away, the sound of her heels echoing through the corridor. She couldn't help but wonder why she alwa

As Mel and Ethan walked towards a seat at the right corner of the room, Mel couldn't help but feel self-conscious under the scrutinizing gazes of the other attendees. She had expected the attention, of course, since Ethan was a well-known billionaire, but she never imagined it would feel so awkward. As they took their seats, Mel tried to remain composed, but she couldn't help but wonder if the eyes that were peering at her could see through her act of pretending to be Ethan's date, or if they all believed she was actually dating him."Meanwhile, still seated on her dressing chair, Lisa heard the unmistakable sounds of the dinner party beginning, signaling that it was time for her to make her grand entrance. She had intentionally waited behind, wanting to ensure that all eyes, especially Ethan's, would be on her as she walked into the ballroom. However, what she failed to realize was that this wasn't like a high school prom, where a few people might pay attention to her. This was a hig
