The Billionaire's Secret Chapter 10 - Wishes and Answers
-Vincent-There are other places I would rather be than here. But being the heir of the Dreamweaver Corporation I have no choice but to endure this meeting. Actually, there is no problem with the meeting. You can make me go to every meeting there is, and I assure you that it will all go according to plan—everything except this one. Because a meeting that my grandmother has set up is something that never goes according to my plan. Don’t get me wrong, I love my grandmother. But I hate how she rushes me into marriage even though I told her several times already that it’s not for me.“Alright,” my Grandmother said as she looked at each of us. “That sums up our monthly meeting. Thank you all for coming and keep up the good work.”I hurriedly collected my things and rushed to the door, with no goodbyes, no hugs, and no kisses. Because those things just trap me.“Vincent,” my grandmother called out when I was just one step out of the room. I debated to just pretend that I didn’t hear her

-Eve-I am not sure what the hell was going on inside Vincent’s head. I know that he had saved me several times and I have to admit that I was the first one who pretended that he was my boyfriend but doing it for a long time is not my thing. Although I can’t say that I wasn’t tempted by his monetary offer. I don’t even know why he asked me when he could just ask any other girls. I know that they will be so willing to do it and they would even do it for free.“Why?” Vincent asked confusion filling his face.“I don’t know how to lie,” I lied. Seriously? I berated myself. I keep telling myself that I am not a liar even though it surprises me that I find myself lying almost all the time. I watched as Vincent’s brow rose, disbelieving me. “Okay,” I said as I raised both my hands. “I know I have lied several times but those are just white lies. What you’re asking of me is a long-term thing and I can’t do that. Not to mention that we need to fool your grandmother. Trust me, I am not a goo

-Vincent-I was in the meeting when Natalie called and told me about what happened to Evelyn’s grandmother. It was a good thing that I asked Carl to go back to the office to pick up some things that I needed for the next meeting. But once Carl gave me an update and her hunch as to what had happened to Evelyn’s grandmother, I decided to reschedule my meeting and let Carl focus on assisting Evelyn. “The doctors advised to keep Miss Anderson’s grandmother for the night to make sure that they didn’t miss anything,” Carl reported. I was glad that Evelyn’s grandmother was fine and that it was nothing serious, but what concerned me was what Carl found out. It seems that Evelyn’s grandmother was scammed. “Make sure to find out what exactly happened,” I told Carl, and I even asked him to make sure that everything that Evelyn and her grandmother needed had been taken care of. My phone rang as soon as I hung up with Carl, I immediately answered thinking it was Evelyn only to be disappointed

-Vincent-“Is your proposal still open?” She asked and the sound of desperation filled her voice. “Come in,” I said as I stepped aside for her to enter.She walked in but stayed just by the door as she crumpled and uncrumpled her hands as if she was not sure if she was doing the right thing or not. “Are you okay?” I asked, trying to check if she would change her mind or not. “Yes,” she whispered. I closed the door and led her to the living room.“Are you just going to stand there or are you telling me the purpose of this visit?”I watch her scurry towards the couch opposite mine and I can tell with the way her body moves that she’s here not because she wanted to but because she had no choice and I can’t say I am not disappointed by it. “Is your proposal still open?” She asked once again but the way she said it this time made me realize that whatever uncertainty she was battling earlier had now disappeared. “Yes,” I replied and I heard a sigh of relief. “Okay,” She said as she co

-Eve-I was a nervous wreck as I got home. I didn’t expect that Vincent would agree with everything, but he did. He fucking did. I replayed what had happened just an hour ago over and over to see if there was something that I had missed. “So,” I said as I looked at him with a smile, “What do we do now, babe?”I watched as his lips quirked up in a smile as he said, “Aren’t we in a rush, babe.” “I guess, I just want to make sure that things go smoothly,” I answered honestly. “Oh, don’t worry about a thing, because it would,” he replied teasing me once again. “For tonight, go home and rest because you will be very busy starting tomorrow.”“Busy?” I asked in confusion. Not sure if he would give me so many tasks as his executive assistant. “Yup,” he said as he stood from his seat. “Don’t come to work tomorrow. Carl will pick you up at ten in the morning.” I took that as a queue to leave. He led me to the door where one of his cars and Carl was waiting outside for me. Carl opened the

-Eve-My deal with Vincent felt so easy. Well, it is easy.All I have to do is play the role that Vincent asked me to and that’s it. But why does a part of me feel uneasy about it? That’s the power of money. It makes you do things out of the ordinary and justify your action with something like, ‘I have no choice but to do it.’ So even though I felt uneasy, I pushed it back and repeated the same mantra I had been repeating all my life, ‘It’s okay, I have no other choice.’Still, I don’t really have the choice to be choosy right now, especially since Vincent has already made a payment. “Where are we going?” I asked as I noticed that Carl didn’t go in the direction of Vincent’s office. “Creating your life,” Vincent replied.“What do you mean by that?” I asked in confusion. “I need my grandmother to think that you’re my prospect for marriage. To ensure that, I need to make sure that you would be able to fit the checklist she has.”“It’s not part of our agreement,” I blurted and he smil

-Eve-It took some time before the bookshop was done. And things had been pretty hectic since then. Vincent enrolled me in several classes that he thought would help me in performing my role well. Aside from my classes, Vincent and I continuously practice how to interact with each other to make sure that we won’t look awkward in front of everyone.It’s been weeks since the last time I saw him. He told me to finish what I needed to finish before our show officially began. He also told me to start letting my grandmother know that I have a new boyfriend because he doesn’t want to surprise her.I also went ahead and made sure that there weren’t any loose ends and no one would bother me and my grandmother again. So I went to the office after I got the money from Vincent to pay for the title of our house only to find out that the police had raided the office and returned all the titles to their respective owners.A part of me wanted to ask Vincent if he has something to do with it, but don’t

-Vincent-Finally, the day that I had been preparing for has arrived. “Your grandmother called, sir,” Carl said pulling me back to the present. “What does she want now?” I asked with a sigh. Since I had slipped about having a girlfriend to stop her from setting me up with blind dates, she never stopped asking me to meet Evelyn. Leading me to make the first mistake I had ever made in my entire life. “We are having our annual charity ball this year,” she said yesterday morning. “I am expecting your girlfriend to be there or I’ll start setting you up for blind dates again.”I hate to admit that I forgot about the charity ball. Which left me with no choice. If my grandmother wants to know Evelyn, then she will know who Evelyn is. But on my own terms. “You’re grandmother wanted you to know that if you didn’t bring your so-called girlfriend, she will start matching you on the event tonight. And if you decide to bail, she will strip your title as CEO of Dreamweaver for fun,” Carl recit

The Billionaire's Secret Chapter 71 - The Girl with Auburn Hair
-Eve-I don’t know what I would feel after hearing Vincent’s story. I am not even sure if I was supposed to know that. But if there was one thing it did, it made me understand why Vincent was not into relationships. I wish I would know who that girl was. I wish there was a way for me to make the bad memories and pain to go away. I also need to know who the hell the obsessed girl was. Why she did what she did. If she was a damn heiress, she has more options than others. I guess people really want what they can’t have. And even if you are a heiress, it doesn’t mean that you could have everything.“Sometimes, I wish I was not born into my family,” Ems said, as she looked at the night sky. Her cheeks were crimson and she had that far away look in her eyes. “I just want to be a normal person, you know.” This time she turned to face me, waiting for my response. “Why?” I asked. “Money and power can’t get you everything you want. It can’t even let you buy happiness.” “What do you mean?”
The Billionaire's Secret Chapter 70 - Her
-Eve-“By the way,” Vincent said as he pulled away from the woman with auburn hair turned towards me, and pulled me closer to him before facing the woman again. “This is my fiance,” he said, surprising me. “Evelyn.” I stared at the man beside me, who had a big smile on his lips. But that was not the only thing that took me by surprise. Another thing that I recognized just now was the way his face was beaming at her. Was he making her jealous? Why is he so happy?Or was he just so good at acting and not showing her what he truly feels?“The popular girl that stole the heart of the most elusive bachelor,” her voice was sultry and confident and I am not sure if she was flirting with Vincent or not. I turned to face her and gave her the best smile I could come up with. She pulled me to her and gave me a kiss on both cheeks. She doesn’t only look good but also smells good. There was nothing about this woman that wasn’t likable. If I was a guy I would fall for her too.Someone came a
The Billionaire's Secret Chapter 69 - Two Worlds
-Eve-Three elegant dresses lay on the bed before me. They were dresses sent by his friend. A friend who obviously has amazing taste. They are all made of different materials, and all of them have their own characteristics. I sigh as the pang of jealousy starts to grow bigger inside of me. I am not the jealous type, and I have never been jealous, even when I was with Stephen. I am not sure why. But when I found out about him and Stella, I was angry because I felt betrayed. But after everything that had happened, that betrayal made it easy for me to move on. I don’t even know what it feels like to envy someone who has something you wish you had. Never jealous of Brie’s social standing. Nor Vincent’s money. But ever since I realized I had feelings for Vincent, feelings like jealousy and envy have always shown themselves. And I hate that I have no right to even feel those feelings. Another heavy sigh escaped my lips as I took another look at the dresses in front of me. The blue dre
The Billionaire's Secret Chapter 68 - A Friend… She…
-Eve-I don’t know if it was because of the mood or if it was because we hadn’t seen each other for such a long time that we both gave in to what our bodies had been craving ever since we sat at the dining table. I know that Vincent told me everytime that he doesn’t make love, that he only fuck women for release. And yet, every time that he was inside of me, I felt otherwise. The care and attention he gives me sometimes make me feel greedy. It makes me want more. If there was a way for me to keep him, I would. I might even sell my soul to the devil if it meant that his grandmother would accept me. Accept us. I might seem to be brazen, but I am not. Trust me, I am not. But I already had a deal with a devil, and it turned out okay. Well, for now, at least. Because I know what I gave in return for this small piece of heaven I am experiencing.I just wish that when the time comes, my heart would be strong enough to mend all the broken pieces. “You broke your promise,” Vincent said a
The Billionaire's Secret Chapter 67 - Steak… or… Dessert?
-Eve-I woke up with a throbbing headache, in a place I didn't recognize, in a very big king-size bed, in the most elegant room I have ever seen. The wind blows the curtain in as the light from outside shows a reddish-orange-pink glow. Reddish-orange-pink glow…The color combination made me sit up in bed as I scanned the room I was in, looking for something to tell me that what I was thinking of was wrong. My eyes roamed the room, but I didn’t find what I was looking for.Instead, that’s when I realized that I was no longer in Brie’s mansion. I removed the covers from my body and recognized something else. I wasn’t wearing my clothes. The ones that I was wearing at that moment were too big to be mine. I begin to panic as I remember something that had happened last night. Unfortunately for me, all I have are fragments of it. I stood but immediately fell back on the bed as my throbbing headache felt like it was being hammered with several nails at the same time. I need to calm down
The Billionaire's Secret Chapter 66 - My Fantasy
-Vincent-I thought I could never love a woman so much, but once again, Evelyn proved me wrong. I watched as the love of my life slept soundly on the air bed in the middle of my limousine as if she was not kidnapped like what she was accusing me earlier. A part of me already knew that this would happen, but I never thought I would like it as much as I did. Evelyn has always been this quiet girl filled with secrets. A woman who deserved to have anything and everything she wanted but always thought otherwise. She could have used me all she wanted because she literally had me wrapped around her fingers, but she never did.She didn’t have anyone but her grandmother. After Alyana told me about Evelyn telling them about us and the way she threatened me if I was to hurt Evelyn, I was more happy than angry after knowing that Evelyn broke our contract. A contract that no longer exists since the night she gave me everything she has. I was glad to hear that because, finally, someone had her
The Billionaire's Secret Chapter 65 - Kidnapped
-Eve-“Make it stop!” I begged, but I am not sure if my voice was heard. Honestly, I don’t know if I was the one who spoke since it didn’t sound like my voice. All I can remember is the blaring sound of the alarm that sounded like the alarms the bank uses when someone tries to rob them. “Please,” I begged again. “Make it stop!” I am not sure if I was screaming, but it felt like that since my throat hurt. “It’s really hard to trust the three of you,” I heard someone say. I tried to open my eyes, but I was blinded by the light behind him. I grimaced once my eyes made contact with the shiny light behind him. “What would I do with you?’ I am not sure if he was asking me or if he was complaining. But whoever this guy is, I love his voice. “Are you my angel?” I asked, leaning towards the warmth that the voice brought exudes. I rubbed my face against his chest like a cat asking for some attention. “You smell good.” I don’t know what the hell I was saying because I don’t understand what t
The Billionaire's Secret Chapter 64 - Admission
-Eve-It’s been a while since I laughed this much. Despite the anxiety that was building inside of me, I am still glad to have had this time with my friends.“Maybe I should kidnap Emmet,” Brie slurred. “And make him do things I wanted then throw him away after I used him.” “You’re evil,” I replied, slurring myself. But despite the haze that we are all in. I know that we are not yet drunk enough not to know what the hell it was that we’re doing. If there was one thing that this drunken state does to us, it is to loosen our tongues and say things we couldn’t say when we are sober. “I am so envious of you now, my friend,” Brie admitted as she popped a chip in her mouth.My eyes grew big with her admission, not understanding how she can say that when she was a fucking princess. “I know I sounded like a selfish brat, which is I am right now. But the thought of you finding a man to love and who loves you back is something I don’t think I will have in this lifetime.”“We don’t need men,
The Billionaire's Secret Chapter 63 - The Royals
-Vincent-After dropping Evelyn off, I went straight to the new house I had purchased for Evelyn. And I couldn’t be more happy to know that Tony was able to convince the King of Norrustra to do the same. The Royals Mansion is the most luxurious, safest place any person could buy a house from. Before anyone can buy a home here, an extensive background check has to be made. Not only that, but they also need to be part of their exclusive club called The Regal. For some, they have to pay to be part of the exclusive club. For others, it is offered for free, because the mere mention of one’s name as member is like free advertisement. What makes The Royal Mansuon different from the rest is that you can be a member of the exclusive club but not a homeowner because the background checks made for the homeowners are different. When Tony told me what had happened, and god how I wanted to punch Emmet’s face at that, I immediately did some research and found the place. Especially when Alyana st
