The Odd Billionaire CHAPTER 51
Traizle "Are you sure you don't have any plans tonight?" Archane asked me for the 4th time. I stopped wiping the table and looked at him. "Why? You have been asking me about that one. I won't be staying here this late if I have plans tonight. Right?" I asked him back. He raised his hands in defeat. "I thought you had one, and I think you have one or did you just forget about it?" He replied. I don't recall any plans for tonight. I already told Lyndon and Layzen that I would go home late because I would be working at the Snack Bar. "Boss, does Traizle have any deliveries now?" Archane asked our boss. Our boss answered, "None so far." Archane sighed. "Too bad." he said. Too bad, is what? Why does he want me to deliver and think if I have any plans for tonight? Although we are now close, this night is the most Archane did all the talks. Why is he being so talkative tonight? I held his forehead. "You seem okay. You are not hot, either. What's wrong with you?" I asked him. He dist

Traizle "Layzen! Wait for us at the entrance!" I shouted to remind Layzen. We are now heading to the mart to buy groceries. Layzen was too excited to enter the mart. As soon as he got off the taxi, he ran immediately. "How was your scholarship process?" I asked Lyndon. I just remembered that I had to ask about this every night. He is busy playing online games with his friends and, of course, with Zarsuelo He shook his head and said, "Don't worry about it, and I got my scholarship certificate already. I also got the requirements needed and passed everything," he answered. "They will pay for my tuition already, so you don't have to worry about it. Okay?" he added. "How about the requirements? Did you have to pay for them?" I asked. Lyndon nodded his head. "I still have my allowance and saved some of it," he replied. "How about you? How's your work these days?" He asked back. I shrugged my shoulders. "Well, as usual. Zarsuelo is still bothering the hell out of me. Because of the in

Traizle "Since when did you guys know about our relationship?" I asked the two. "The night when you guys confessed to each other," Lyndon replied, grimacing. "We were listening to Matthew's love story while playing the game that night." he added, almost irritably. I turned to Zarsuelo, who was already avoiding my gaze. "Zarsuelo." I called him. "What? We are busy playing here." he answered, still playing with Layzen's new toys. "Who are the others?" I asked. "I told you who they are before." he replied. Yes, I asked him about that, but he could not finish them because I interrupted him. "Name them again." I answered back. Zarsuelo turned his body to face me. "Lyndon and his friends, Nana and Pops, some of my employees—" "Exactly who they are?" I interrupted him again for me to know exactly who knew about us. "Alex, Sonia, Alessa, Claire, Eva, Tyler, and Aiden." he named. That explains why Tyler told me to get Zarsuelo's grandparents' side. Even Claire and the others were gri

Traizle Today, we went to the D Company to attend the meeting for the movie production. As Zarsuelo predicted, the movie will be a hit. They just announced the new movie, but people are already looking forward to it. In particular, the leading actors and actresses are excellent and talented. I can't help but be amazed at how Zarsuelo thinks and analyzes whether he will benefit. He may be impulsive, but most of those went well. I also think that he is a genius in this line of work. "Cut!" The director yelled. "That was good! We will change the scene." he added. "Will they make a movie of our story if I ask them?" Zarsuelo commented beside me. I turned to him. "And why would you make a movie?" I asked. He smiled. "I want to share our story with them. Our story is awesome, you know." he answered. "It would be better if only our family, friends, you, and I knew about us. That is more special than showing them how great our relationship is," I told him. I need to change his decision
The Odd Billionaire CHAPTER 55
Traizle I feel like someone is following me. When we left our house, I felt like someone was watching over us. Even though I dropped Lyndon and Layzen off at their schools, I can still feel it. The feeling of being watched. I am uncomfortable with it, and I find it very uncomfortable. That, it feels like it won't do me good. Being watched does not do any good for anyone. In dramas, they will either kidnap someone or follow their target because they are being observed. I fished out my phone and dialed someone who I could see. When I saw Archane's name on the list, I immediately called him. We don't talk much on messages or calls, but I need it now. "He—" "Where are you?" I cut him before he could even finish his lines. "At the snack bar, why? Miss me?" Archane retorted. I can't help but grimace. "Can you fetch me now? Can you?" I asked. "Why should I fetch you? Why bother calling me when you can call—" "I think someone is following me. I feel weird. Can you fetch me? I am still
The Odd Billionaire CHAPTER 56
Traizle The night has come. We finished our dinner, but Zarsuelo was still on the table munching sweets after his meal. I decided to let him sleep in our house. He insisted on guarding us with a bodyguard outside. Our neighbors might ask about it, and I don't want them to feel uncomfortable. I also don't want them to know about Zarsuelo. Having him in our house rather than the two bodyguards is enough. "Will you stop eating your sweets now and brush your teeth after?" I asked. Why do I feel like I am babysitting him again? "Matthew, let's brush our teeth!" Layzen invited. I thought he would tell Layzen to wait for him, but he stopped eating and stood up. "Let's watch movies after that. I want to try it with you guys." he replied. "One movie and sleep. They still have classes tomorrow." I told him. Zarsuelo went with Layzen to the bathroom to brush their teeth. I cleaned the wrappers that he left on the table. "Traizle, should we move into a new house? I don't think we are still
The Odd Billionaire CHAPTER 57
Traizle After sending Layzen and Lyndon to their schools, Zarsuelo and I went to his uncle's house. He received a call from his uncle, saying they had finished reviewing the CCTV videos they had gotten. "Here you guys are," A man, I think he is in his forties, "Come inside. Welcome to our humble abode, Miss." He added, smiling, and did not even forget to wink at me. Zarsuelo was on my side, blocking my way. "Don't wink at her, Uncle Vin!" I heard Zarsuelo saying to his uncle. I pushed Zarsuelo gently to my side again. "I am sorry about that, Mr. Vin." I apologized. He waves his hands. "No worries, Matthew must be protective of his girlfriend, huh," he replied, directing us to enter. "Call me Uncle Vin, too." he added. "Is it comfortable with you?" I asked back. He smiled again at me. Like Zarsuelo's smile every time I ask him. He will surely smile like that before answering me or not. Maybe it is in their genes. "Of course! The whole clan was excited about meeting you. His Nana

Traizle "Won't you hug your mother first?" My mother asked. I can't still figure it out. What the hell is she doing here in Zarsuelo's company? "Why are you here?" I asked. She smiled again. "I am with someone," she answered. "He is your new father." she added, which surprised me. "And why are you guys here? How did you know that I am working here?" I asked her continuously, trying to know the reason behind their agenda here. "I want you to do something for me." My mother said. I arched my eyebrows at her. "Do you think I will follow you? It's been years since you left us. You did not check on us to see if we were still doing okay. And now you want me to do something? I am not that idiot, Mom." I argued. She laughed. Her smile. Her reactions. Everything about her makes me disgusted just by looking at her. There is no way I will follow her. "I know your relationship with your boss, so you know." she said, smirking at me. "You hired someone to follow us, do you?" I asked. "S

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
The Odd Billionaire CHAPTER 77
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
