The Odd Billionaire CHAPTER 28
Traizle Our new customer is living in a fine house. I pressed the doorbell, waiting for the caller to come out. "Delivery for Aiden Arias?" I asked when someone came out. "Ah yes! Come in first, I left my wallet inside." Arias, the customer, answered by opening the door for me. "I can wait here." I replied. "No, no. I heard there are many mosquitoes outside. Get inside first. I won't harm you in any way. I heard you are strong." He responded, entering his house again. I had no choice but to follow him inside. His house is fine inside and outside. He must be from a rich family. "I bought some food from the Snack Bar. Pay me!" I heard him shouting. I waited at the door. I should not enter his house anymore. "What? Snack Bar?" a familiar voice asked. "Where is she? I told her to get inside," I heard Arias reply. "Here you are, get inside." Arias added when he saw me at his door, pulling me to get inside. "No need, I don't—" I answered, unable to finish my sentence. "Have t

Traizle "I am still sleepy." I muttered as I was sending Lyndon and Layzen off to their schools. "Who told you to stay late last night? None, right? So don't bother complaining." Lyndon replied, scolding me. “You know you have a work tomorrow morning, but you still stay late? That's not good, Traizle." Layzen added, also scolding his older sister. I can't sleep. I couldn't concentrate on my work last night after delivering the order to Arias, Zarsuelo's friend. Am I to blame? Of course not. It is his fault. For making me sleep late. An unexpected confession can really make you lose concentration throughout your work. Tell me who can still concentrate after that, I will congratulate them big time. After sending them off to their schools, I am now on my way to the Snack Bar. After what happened last night, I promised myself that I would make sure to look at their names. I'll see if the name is a threat to me or not. To make sure nothing like last night will happen again nex

Traizle "Why is that?" I asked, confused at her answer. "He is outside. Waiting for you, maybe?" she said before answering the call. Is he outside? I still don't want to talk to him. His confession is the first reason I should avoid him. I stopped thinking when my phone vibrated. As I get my phone, I immediately see if it is important. "I think it's urgent—not so very important as it seems." I said, looking at the name of the person who messaged me. I intended not to read his message, but he showed himself at the door, waving and smiling at me, showing his big smile and white teeth. I was about to avoid his path and pretend I didn't notice him, but the owner's expression tells me to go out and talk to him. "I need to work, Boss. Talking to him would lose me a fortune in just an hour." I reasoned, telling the fact as well. "You told me to ask for money and think of it as your other sideline." the owner replied, getting back what I had told her a while ago. I sighed in de

Traizle "Will you go back to the company now?" Zarsuelo asked. I shook my head quickly. "I don't have any plans to go back there," I answered. "After hearing you, I don't think I have to go back there." I continued. "Ahh, why?" Zarsuelo fussed. "When someone tells you he or she likes you, you should be shy and reciprocate it afterward. Why are you so different from the others?" He added. I sighed defeatedly. "You're the only one who's different here," I argue. "I told you clearly before. I am just your secretary, nothing more and nothing less!" I added angrily. "But I want more. What should I do about that?" He asked back. "I don't know! Why are you asking me?" "Because I wanted to know your opinion." "You are strangling me indirectly!" I complained. "I need to go back—" "Stay." Zarsuelo said, after stopping me from going out. I thought he was taken aback by what I had said, so I used that time to stand up and go out, but I calculated it wrong. "I am sorry, I won't f

Traizle Every rule, I will say, he has his own rules too. I don't know if he will really follow our rules. "Traizle." Zarsuelo called. "What?" I asked back. "If ever I am choking you to death, tell me, okay? I will stop myself from choking you.” he said seriously. Good then he knows his limitations. I nodded at him in agreement and kept my phone in my pocket. "Let's go." I told him. He looked at me confused. "To where?" he asked back. "I have to go back to the Snack Bar and give back the bike I rented." I replied as I stood up from my seat. "Bike? What is the purpose of renting a bike?" He asked more confused, but not concerned about getting the left buns. "I am renting a bike to deliver the orders." I answered as we started to head out of the cafe. I could hear him getting up from his seat and following behind me. "You are using a bike to deliver the orders?" He repeated. "That is why I thought you lost some weight. Where's your old motorcycle?" He asked again. "At t

Traizle "Zarsuelo, you are invited to a party." I told him, handing him the pink envelope that I had just received a while ago. He walked towards me. "A party? It's been a long time since I went to a party!" he replied excitedly as he opened the invitation letter. "Can I go to the party?" He asked. "Why are you asking me about that? If you want to go, then go." I answered. "Oh, it is not just an invitation letter. It is a business party." he replied while reading the letter. "Business what?" I asked. "We should get ready." Zarsuelo beamed. "We?" I asked back. Why 'we' sound like I am going with him to that party? "Of course! I am my company's representative and need you to go with me because you are my secretary. In that way, we can also find some investors or future customers," he answered, smiling widely. "You will be my date on Saturday. I can't wait for that day!" he added excitedly. I hate that kind of party. "Do I really have to go there? I don't think I can g

Traizle After our work, Zarsuelo and I headed to a dress and suit shop as we planned. "Good evening, Ma'am and Sir. Zarsuelo." The salesperson greeted us. "Good evening, I hope this won't go public for my privacy." Zarsuelo greeted back. The salesperson smiled and shook her hands saying, "Don't worry, Sir. We don't do that. Our guests' privacy is important." She assured us. She guided us to the main room. "What do you prefer, Ma'am?" She asked me after. "Do you have a sexy dress?" Zarsuelo answered. "You will wear that sexy dress. I am warning you, Zarsuelo." I growled silently, enough for him to hear it. He bobbed his head at me, pouting. "Why not wear one? I want to see you wear a sexy dress. Can you?" He asked. "Force me or I won't go with you?" I asked back. He clasped his hands and turned to the salesperson. "Anything, as long as it is good for her." He spoke. The salesperson laughed a bit before nodding. "Understood. How about you, Sir?" She asked. "I want a

Traizle Saturday came and they were now dolling me up in a room where Zarsuelo brought me. I insisted on going with the makeup I could do, but he told me he would bring me to a place where I could be prettier than usual. "You can now change into your dress, Ma'am Traizle." The woman who did my makeup said. I opened my eyes to see my reflection in the mirror. "You guys can definitely make a change." I complimented her. I can't deny they are professional. I look like a model in this makeup. And I should do this more often too. Makeup looks good on me. "Like what Mr. Zarsuelo said, you are already pretty. Adding some design to your face makes you more gorgeous." the woman replied. "I hope so." I just answered, standing up from my seat to change. I am wearing black ruched-waist long chiffon, according to the salesperson from the dress and suit shop. Paired with a moon pendant short necklace and a long tassel diamond crystal ear stud drop dangle earrings, I am also wearing poi

Layzen "Look! Look! The camel looks cool!" "What is cool about camels? You won't be able to see them in person anyway." "Where can we find a camel, then? I want to see one. I wanted to see how big and cool it is in person." "You can see them in a zoo." "Brother Layzen!" Thalia called my name. "Yes?" I asked. I think I have not heard anything since a while ago. "Can we go to the zoo and see a camel?" Thalia asked. "There are no camels in the zoo here. You can see them mostly in Egypt, Mongolia, and China." I told her. "Can we ask Uncle Gio to drive us to Egypt?" Thalia asked again. "So that we can see the camel in person." she added. "I think it is far from here, Thalia." Little Matthew said. "We can't go there?" Thalia asked sadly. "Sorry, Thalia. When your parents get home, you can ask about it." I told her. When will they come? I became a nanny after six years. "Everyone! I am home!" we heard Lyndon shouting from the living room. "I am going to take care of three kids
The Odd Billionaire CHAPTER 79: FINALE
Traizle "Dad, do I look okay in this dress? I do not think I suit this kind of dress. It is so uncomfortable." I told my dad, almost complaining about the dress I was wearing. I am wearing a casual dress but itching to change to a comfortable one. But I cannot do that. "We need to wear a formal one when you are meeting your boyfriend's family," Dad explained. "This is the first time we will meet each other's families. Just wait for a few hours before you can change." We will be seeing Matthew's grandparents tonight. Matthew just told us yesterday that his grandparents would come here tonight for a small gathering. We will introduce our family properly. "They bought that for you. That is why you cannot say no to it, right?" Dad asked again. I nodded. This is one of the gifts I received from his grandparents before. Although they are pretty, they are not for me to wear. Looking at the price tag before wearing it, it felt like I might be a hostage if I went out with this dress I wa

Matthew After the conference, we headed to their house as fast as possible. No one speaks while we are inside the car. We fell silent as if we were in a silent war. "This is killing me," I told them. "I am very sorry, guys, but it is too quiet. I am dying of silence. Why are we silent anyway?" I asked them. "You guys are quiet, too, so I thought I should keep my mouth shut." Archane commented. "Me too." Lyndon added. "I am hungry. That is why I am quiet." Layzen said. We can't help but laugh at his answer. "Why did you stay quiet if you were already hungry?" Dad Albert asked while driving. "You are not talking. As a grown-up, I should stay quiet, too." he answered. "I thought you'd act your age?" Then Traizle said, this time to Layzen. "It depends on my mood and my outfit," Layzen answered as he fixed the buttons on his sleeves. "I thought I should act like one because I am wearing a formal suit." Layzen added. Of all the children I encountered, I liked Layzen the most. He is

Matthew As time passed by, day by day, my amazement at her became an interest, and I ended up liking her. How can I not like her? She is gorgeous as hell. She is so family-oriented, a good cook, and can work well. She is a sexy person who can't even say sweet things- but that is how she lives, and I still like her after that. I was able to learn about her life with her brother, Lyndon. I can't ask her about this matter; she is too off. Although Lyndon tells me some stories about them, he still does not tell me the stories that are too sensitive, and I MUST respect that. At first, I thought girls were all the same. I can make them come to me because I am rich, but that can't compare to her. I even offered her that I could give her a bunch of money. What did I receive from her? Her two middle fingers with her mad face. I also wanted to make her fall in love with me right away. I did not know that it was tough to get her attention. Anyway, all that matters today is that I am hers, a
The Odd Billionaire CHAPTER 76
Matthew Following that day, I requested the assistance of my relatives, specifically my grandparents, as suggested by the woman I met. I told them the whole story. I thought they couldn't help me because they were already old. What can they do? My parents are both stronger than them. I did not know that they could still control my parents. They even gave a long lecture that I did not imagine at all. Mom and Dad started to work for themselves after that, reluctantly, and I stayed at my grandparents' house. After a few months, my mom called me to attend a meeting about their new investor. They forced me to go with them to check if the investor would help them make their company progress. Nana and Pops did not allow me to go there, so I told them I would read it if they had the documents already. After an hour, I got a call from my Dad. They told me that they got involved in an accident. Dead on arrival. The reason why they got into that accident is because of the company issue. Mom

Flashback. Matthew "Can't I go and rest for once?" I asked my parents. Mom turned to me as if I had said something terrible. "Who will manage the company if you rest? You can rest later in the evening." she answered unbothered. Who will manage the company if I rest? I don't even own the company. They made that company themselves, and why am I getting involved? "Why are you guys even here if no one will manage this?" I started to ask. "Why did you even build this company if you guys are not going to take care of it?" "Watch your word, Matthew!" Mom screamed. I sighed. "Mom, I am still in college. I should focus more on studying, not on your business." I retorted. "Studying? When all you do is play your mobile games and eat sweets? Where is the focus of your studying?" Mom answered back. I can't believe this. "Yeah, I play mobile games and eat sweets. You don't know why?" I asked. "It's the only thing I can do since I am here. Aside from reading your papers, looking at the scre

Flashback. Matthew "Why are you staring at your money, Auntie? Instead of staring at it blankly, you should invest in Z company. I can guarantee you that they will make your money double." I told my Auntie. She was busy counting her money beside me. We had our family reunion. Everyone was talking and catching up to one another, asking some things they didn't even need to know were being asked in this gathering, and she was busy looking at her money. She glanced at me. "How can you say that Z company will double my money, did your parents invest in that company?" Auntie asked. I shake my head. "No. I read one of their magazines, and they explained how they process things. It is just my opinion, though. You don't have to do it if you are unsure about it," I answered. "I'm pretty interested in investment, and I've watched a lot." I added to add more credibility. She sighed and started to keep her money in her wallet. "I need money. Your Uncle has been gambling nonstop, and I must pa

Traizle "Here is your food." Matthew said as he put my food in front of me. "Where are your daily sweets?" I asked. "You are not going to eat today?" He shakes his head. "No, I will not eat it now." He answered. Does he mean that he will stop eating sweets now? "Why?" I asked. "Can you stop eating your sweets?" He went quiet. Contemplating whether he can stop eating his sweets. "I guess I can." he answered. A while ago, he fetched me from our house. He even opened the car door for me before and after I rode in his car. Why does he act like someone he is not? "Will you find new investors for our new project?" I asked. Matthew says we got a good proposal a while ago, and the project is in process. "Honestly, if the potential investors don't invest in our new projects, I can personally invest in them. But," he paused. "Since they know that it is our new project, I doubt they won't invest in it." Well, he is right. Investors would invest in our project since they know it is unde

Matthew "What? They went back?" I asked. "Yes, the night they abducted Traizle, they fled out of this city. When my team went there in advance to the area we located, we reviewed the CCTV and saw them leaving the city." The investigator explained. "We should head as well. I don't think it is safer for Traizle if we don't do anything as of these hours. Those people who abducted her can hurt her." I told them. Her mother had done an unbelievable thing already. What's more, they can do? I hope they won't hurt her. I should not have left her last night. I was too reckless and only thought about our date. We, together with my employees, headed back to our city. I immediately went to Traizle's family to tell them the updates. "I cannot believe that her mother can do it to her daughter because of money?" Dad Albert expressed his disappointment. "She has let go of us since then. It is no wonder why she can do that to Traizle." Lyndon said worryingly. "We should save Traizle now, and sh
