The Billionaire who doesn't love me CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX: YOU'VE FALLEN FOR HIM KIM
KIMI watched Phoebe's sleeping face with a smile on my face. She hasn't been herself since the incident with her fiance.I sat on the edge of the bed, and the mattress sank upon my weight as I reached out and gently stroked her hair. I tucked some little strands of hair behind her ear, revealing her now colourful and radiant face.She hasn't been able to sleep like this for days, she is always either crying or staring blankly into nothingness.Her appearance has changed drastically, and so has her appetite. Staring at her sleeping face as she breathes in and out steadily, I feel all my stress being washed away.It has been a long tiring week for me. I had to work from home, overseeing multiple ongoing projects and approving designs from our designers. Also, I had to take care of my heartbroken friend. I'm not complaining at all; in fact, I'm so happy to be here with her when she needs me the most.Phoebe and I have been friends since high school when my father moved his company hea

KIM“You've fallen for him, Kim,” She said with deadpan seriousness. I feel my heart lurched into my throat as Phoebe's words hit me like a poisonous arrow. I open my mouth slightly and force myself to breathe. This is not true, I know myself. I let out a small chuckle. “That's not possible; there's no way I will fall for Gio. That can't be true,” I said, trying to convince myself rather than Phoebe. But her piercing jade green almond-shaped eyes locked onto me with all seriousness.I started to pace back and forth, mumbling words to myself. How? When did it start? What ignites the feelings? Is it because he gives me the attention I desperately need at this moment? But what about Nathan? He hasn't signed the divorce papers yet. Am I allowed to do this? I voiced out in a flurry of sentences, feeling my panic increasing. Phoebe walked to me and held my hand, stopping me from going back and forth. “Don't take it too seriously. It's just a fling. And it's absolutely normal since he

KIM“Hi,” he said to me, his voice rich and melodious.I feel my breath hitched at the sound of his voice. I can't possibly be falling in love with him for the second time, can I?I shook my head, and I tried to discard the thought. I pushed the door further wide open to allow him to enter, and I avoided his gaze, but I didn't miss his smirk. He walked past me into the house, and his smell filled my nose. He smells of lavender and a mixture of vanilla. “Hi Phoebe” I hear him greet Phoebe, and she responds, smiling “Hi, Nathan. It's been a while”“Yeah, thanks for taking care of Kim” he continued their conversation as if I was invisible in the room“Oh, it has been the other way round” She replied, looking in my direction and Nathan's gaze followed hers“Are you ready?” He asked me, his gaze softened than what I'm used to.I can tell something has changed in him. He has become more approachable. Even the aura he is emitting is no longer cold and distant; it's like the wall he had a

KIM Her gaze went to our intertwined hands, and her face turned green. Her eyeballs almost popped out of their socket as she opened her mouth in disbelief. What a sight to behold. And as if Nathan knew exactly what I wanted to do, he displayed a perfect loving couple. “Which one do you like honey, I will buy it for you” I feel my heart lurched into my throat at the sound of “honey”. This is the second time he will be using such endearment for me. I looked up at him, my eyes searching his eyes for answers. ‘Are you really my Nathan’ I thought. But he further threw me into a fit of mixed emotions when he smiled at me. I stopped breathing, and the world around me seemed to stop moving. I stare at his elegant face, his smile so beautiful and so charming that it makes me go weak in the knees. I opened my mouth, trying to say something, but no words came out. I wanted to breathe, to look away, but I stood rooted to a place, unable to look away from his blue eyes that threatened t

KIM“I want to make it up to you,” he says, and a drop of tears rolling down my cheek. He moved closer to me and held my hand. His other hand wiped away the lone tear on my cheek, and then he gently touched my face, his thumb rubbing where he had just wiped.He still holds my gaze, his blue gaze so intense I'd almost melt under it. His thumb moved steadily away from my cheek to my eyebrow as he gently stroked it, and then over to my eyelashes and finally to my lips.His thumb strokes the length of my lips, and I feel the warmth of it on my lips. I swallowed hard, and I found it unbearable to breathe. I slightly parted my lips, the hot breath against his thumb, and I noticed his eye shifted a bit. They seemed to glow with a different intensity as he stared at my lips.I could feel my mind going haywire and my heart pounding frantically with anticipation. ‘is he going to kiss me? Will I be getting my first kiss with him tonight?’ The thought filled my head and made my clit harden painf
Last Updated : 2025-02-11The Billionaire who doesn't love me CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE: FLYING WITH NATHAN
KIMI have never slept so peacefully as I did last night ever since I got married to Nathan. I was a naturally light sleeper, but I slept even lighter ever since I entered this house. I'm always on the edge. It's either I cry myself to sleep or I drink myself to sleep, dreading the decision I had made by marrying him.But yesterday was different. Nathan has been so gentle and loving which made me shiver to my bones with fear. I am scared thinking everything that happened yesterday was just a dream.I felt a light tap on my shoulder accompanied by a soft call for my name “Kim, Kim, wake up”I reluctantly open my eyes, not wanting to leave the dreamland and embracing the reality of Nathan's cold expression and stoic face. But as soon as I opened my eyes, they met with a pair of piercing blue eyes, looking at me ever so softly. “Good morning”, Nathan greeted. His voice was a whisper, and his lips wouldn't stop smiling. His face was so close to me that I could feel his breath on my fac

KIMWe fly over the Hudson River as we go into the US airspace chasing dawn. The lights from the bustling streets of Manhattan twinkle until they disappear into the fog of the early morning. Dark waters below reflected the first hints of the morning as the sky slowly transformed into a masterpiece of gold and rose. The sun breaking over the horizon casting its glow over the misty Connecticut countryside. “Good morning,” Nathan said to me, smiling proudly. The ray from the first light breaking over the horizon cast a soft glow on his face, profounding his elegant features.“Good morning” I replied, my lips curving into a gorgeous smile that gradually turned into a grin. The view is breathtaking. It's the most beautiful sunrise I have ever seen. I peeked at him, my lips wouldn't stop smiling, and I noticed his eyes on me.“Do you like it?” He asked, the smile never leaving his lips too.“It's beautiful”, I responded, smiling back at him.“I love that you love it”, he said, looking for

KIMWe drove to a private equestrian estate that belongs to their family.When he said let's ride, he was talking about riding a horse. The sport I found the most boring. “Why do we want to ride horses, I don't like riding them” I complained as he helped me fasten the protective gear “I know. And that's why I brought you here” he muttered “Why did you bring me here when you know I don't like riding?” I rolled my eyes in exasperation. I just don't get it“That's your punishment for getting drunk last night,” he said sternly “What? I…I thought—“You thought I forgot?” He asked, cutting me off and I nodded. “Why will I forget? I have been anticipating this since yesterday”, He is smirking at me.Now I'm beginning to wonder what he wants to do here“How did you know I don't like riding?”“I know a lot of things about you Kim”“Yeah, you can dig them out” I murmur, displeased “You can't dig out likes and dislikes of people unlike their personal information,” he remarked “Then how d

PHOEBE I was lost in my world, trying to wrap my head around Kim's outburst about my failed relationship when I suddenly heard a scream.It was Nathan. The scream was sudden, and it hid a tremendous amount of untold pain. When I looked towards him, he was already on the floor, holding his head and sobbing loudly. ‘Isn't that an exaggeration?’ I thought. She only hit him once; why is he on the floor pretending to be dying? Surely, one slap can not kill you, right?But he wasn't pretending, maybe he was dying for real.I rush to his side, calling his name, but he seems to be losing consciousness. “Nathan! Nathan!” I called frantically, but I got no response. I immediately went into a panic. My breathing becomes ragged, and my hands tremble anxiously. I have little knowledge when it comes to an emergency like this, and I don't know how to give proper CPR.“Fuck!” I cursed, regretting not paying enough attention in science class.I put my finger against his nose, trying to feel his br
The Billionaire who doesn't love me CHAPTER FORTY-SIX: TALE REPEATS ITSELF
NATHANI drove at one hundred kilometres per hour towards Eleon Interior Designs company.I need to see Kim and talk to her. Talking to her will let me know what she's thinking, and that way, I can figure out how to convince her to withdraw the petition. Is she not taking this too far? I should be the one angry that she kissed another man in front of me, yet I'm the one getting shitty treatment from her.Ever since our departure in Boston, she has not gone home nor slept at home. She hasn't called me and tried to fucking give me some explanation.‘But you also kissed someone else’ I thought “At least I tried to give her an explanation!” I said through gritted teeth, defending myself Is she that desperate to leave me for another man? I tighten my hold on the wheel, feeling rage run through my veins. I know I messed up, I know I had hurt her by neglecting her. But that's it. I did not date another woman, and neither did I intentionally kiss another woman.Okay, sassy kissed me once
The Billionaire who doesn't love me CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE: DIVORCE PETITION
NATHAN Okay, this is weird and certainly not the time to fall in love! These two are obviously in their own world, oblivious to my existence in the room. “Are…you…okay? Will stutter, fumbling with words. He has been doing a lot of things, unlike him today. He rarely gets mad at me, and he has high confidence when he's around girls, so he never stutters. Phoebe struggled to her feet; her cheek had turned beet red, blushing from… embarrassment? I don't know. “Forgive my clumsiness”, She said and hurried out of the room, probably forgetting the reason why she came in the first place. Then the door flew open again with a bang, and she was at the door pointing her index finger at me with blazing eyes. “N…Nathan, I will come back for you!” she muttered through gritted teeth. Then she sneaked a peek towards Will’s side and noticed his eyes on her. She blushed different shades of pink and ran out of the room, leaving Will stunned in the same position. I glanced towards him; his mo
The Billionaire who doesn't love me CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR: THE HEARTBREAK
NATHAN It had been a week since Kim had kissed that Italian guy. One week and the image of that night is still vivid in my mind; the pain still hurts as if it was just yesterday. I have tried everything to forget that night, but I still can't bring myself to leave Sunset Hills, where I have been drinking myself away.No matter how I chastise myself and tell myself how damaging drinking alcohol is, I still can't control myself from gulping another cup. No matter how bashed up I was the previous night, I still returned to the bar the following morning. “Are you planning to kill yourself here and ruin business for me!” Will yelled, upon entering the VVIP room. He stormed across the room and snatched the bottle I was about to drink from. He proceeded to clear all the empty bottles, unopened bottles and, including the ones I had abandoned halfway off my table. I didn't protest. I let him pack it all. That's what I need right now—someone who can get some sense into me.“I heard you have
The Billionaire who doesn't love me CHAPTER FORTY THREE: THE BIZARRE DECISION
KIM I took the first flight to New York on Monday morning. Giovanni had left early to attend to business, and I have nothing to do back at the hotel, so I might as well just submerge myself into some work at the company. He had devoted the rest of Sunday to me, trying to cheer me up and lighten my mood. He took me for a walk at the Boston public garden, and we went window shopping at Cambridge antique flea market. It was fun , and soon, I had forgotten about the heartache I felt earlier that morning. The flight from Boston to New York only took about 2 hours so I arrived at the company early and to my greatest surprise, I met Sassy at the lobby, flipping through pages of our design collection magazine without a care in the world. A rush of rage flooded through me. The nerve of that lady to show her face around here. I tried to walk past her, pretending I didn't see her but she saw me. “Mrs Pearce” she called out. “Mrs Pearce, I have been waiting for you. Your subordinate wo
The Billionaire who doesn't love me CHAPTER FORTY-TWO: I WILL WIN HER BACK
NATHAN The heat of my rage boiled in my veins like molten lava, making sweat glistening my forehead. The lump in my throat is strangling me, making it extremely difficult for me to breathe. I had thought of a million possibilities with this Giovanni Ferraro guy, but never have I thought I would witness the scene in front of me. Kim had pulled the guy closer, kissing him passionately, cutting my words short. I wanted to tell her about my ailment and tell her that whatever she sees with Sassy is not real. I wanted to confide in her as my dad suggested, but before I could make out a word, she was already kissing this guy. The same guy whose picture Sassy had sent to me. The same guy I saw at our apartment building the day Kim went out dressing gorgeous with her suitcase. As much as I don't want to overthink her previous actions and clues here and there, this is something I can't get over. She broke from the kiss and looked at me without any guilt or remorse. Her gaze was clear, b

KIMBefore I could think clearly, I pulled Gio closer and kissed him. I feel him freeze beneath my kiss. His lip was rigid and cold, but after a while, it began to move. And he kissed me back.I hear Nathan inhale sharply, and the temperature drops a couple of degrees more, but I do not bother to break free from Gio; I run my hand through his smooth, long hair and deepen the kiss. It felt different. The opposite of what I felt with Nathan. I didn't feel any desire pooled down between my thighs, and I certainly did not feel any jolt of electric current. I feel nothing. Phoebe is wrong, I did not like Gio, but I could use him to get back at Nathan. I know it's selfish, I know it's wrong to toy with Gio's emotions. But I already said it. Tonight is not the night for logical reasons. I break free from Gio’s kiss, trying to catch my breath.I looked at Nathan, he looked pale and his eyes were red. Opposite of what I had expected. I expected him to be mad, furious even, but the look of p

KIMI walk to the ceiling-height glass window that overlooks the city below. With Boston at my feet, everything looks peaceful from up here, away from the bustling streets, polluted air, angry drivers, far away from Nathan. Would he even notice that I'm gone? Will he try to find me? The thought wandered into my mind, and I kicked it out immediately. I had promised myself on the way here that I wouldn't think about him and I wouldn't cry anymore.“Would you like anything to eat? I will call the room service.” Giovanni asked. Just about two hours ago, before I called him, I was hungry, looking for Nathan so he could fix me something to eat before I saw something I had desperately wished for the last two hours that I had not seen.Luckily, Giovanni was in Quincy for business, which is just a 45-minute drive to Dover. We met up at Centre Street and drove all the way down to Boston. “No. I'm fine for now, thank you” I said without looking at him.“Okay, if you need anything, I will be
The Billionaire who doesn't love me CHAPTER THIRTY-NINE: WHO IS GIOVANNI FERRARO?
NATHAN I arrived at Boston Logan International Airport by 10 pm. The flight is scheduled for 10:30 pm but it's going to be delayed for another two hours. One of the many reasons why I don't fly public transport. I need to make sure this never happens again. There must always be a bird and a jet on standby in case of emergencies. I sat in the deserted private lounge of the first class. There's a guy three rows behind me to my right. He is deeply immersed in whatever he's doing, typing away furiously like he has a beef with the keyboard. Another couple sits directly behind me. They seem lost in their own world as they cuddle and say flirty words to each other. The sound of their giggling makes me think of Kim. The way she blushes, the way she smiles secretly, the way her eyes convey her thoughts, the way she looks at me with passion, love, and lust. A smile curved my lips at the memories. The couple behind me suddenly went silent, I could hear some weird sound coming from behind m
