Trapped By A Billionaire Chapter 34 - Kidnapped!
Iris woke up this morning in a contemplated mood. It was 5 AM, and she would usually go to the kitchen ten minutes later, take her tea, and prepare her simple breakfast. Later at 5.30, she would do twenty minutes of yoga and finish the morning in the shower. Around 6 AM, she was ready to go to her bakery shop and prepare to make the cakes and orders. Her life was simple and monotone in a predictable routine. But she liked it. She fought hard to get herself like this after her parent passed away and she was greaving them. She suddenly grew up as an adult without her parent's guidance. A routine that had to keep her sane and successfully distracted her from those depressing thoughts of living alone. But now, her life was turning to uncharted territory, and she had no maps to guide her. Sometimes s

Her head pounded so hard Iris had to wince and close her eyes again to lessen the pain. It took her several minutes to refocus and get in touch with what was happening to her. “Sir, she is awake,” she heard a voice from a distance. “Bring her in,” a hoarse, gritted voice replied, and in a minute, she was yanked from the soft cushion where she was laid. Her throbbing pain intensified when these men forcefully pulled her. “Hey!” But her mouth was closed by rough fabric and cutting off her voice. Iris’ body aches everywhere. Her shoulders, her hips, and every joint in her body hurt. Her eyes also blared, but she tried to focus and looked carefully at who dared to kidnap her. And now she had a clear look at who the culprit was. Jonathan Browning. Father of Alexander Browning. “Ms.. Denvier, sorry to take you by surprise like this,” his voice grated in her ears. Iris did not speak at all, only staring back at him defiantly. His henchmen put Iris down on the hard chair before Jonat

ALEXANDER Alexander was ecstatic when she dropped off his woman at her store this morning. She was so soft and so cute when they parted, and he put a kiss on her. He promised to take her to lunch, maybe push her to the edge, and finally give in and open her heart to him. All was going fucking well since last night he spent the night with him. He planned to talk with Julianne after what she did to his Iris. He didn’t appreciate that a bit. He and Julianne were nothing and would rather keep it that way. He intended to carry out this plan sometime later after he finally convinced Iris to be his wife. The problem was between his father, him, and William Ruthford–Julianne’s father. This wasn’t about Julianne, let alone Iris. So he was highly pissed when Julianne acted on Iris. Staking a claim on him even though he was not hers in the first place. With all that positive mindset, he returned to her store on the luch time, only to get her store was empty. He knew something was wrong, and

There was a slight display of stubbornness between Iris and Alex about where Iris should rest after the kidnapping.Iris was strong-willed and adamant that she returned to her home and let her friends warmly tend to her bruises.She was arguing with him when Sebastian’s men drove her. At first, those men followed Alex’s instructions, and they went in the direction of Alex’s penthouse. But she was livid and stubbornly against the idea. Iris even trashed in the car like a petulant child.“Either you take me back to my place, or I will jump out of this car!” she threatened the driver.The big guy did not like the threat but agreed and rerouted to Iris’ place. Rose and Elena only looked at each other when Iris acted

ALEXANDERHe couldn’t fucking believe it when Iris nodded in a small gesture.She said yes?!“You can’t retract your words, Iris!” he locked her words, and he wouldn’t let her take back her approval.He did not get her time to react because he took her mouth fiercely and poured his gratitude for her to let her know he was ecstatic with the decision.His kisses turned into a heavy make-out, and he couldn’t contain his desire to take her right here. Alex caressed and touched her soft body and took her tops and bottoms, leaving only the bra and panty.“Let’s get these things off,” in a few seconds, a

Alex won the debate with Iris about a bodyguard who now shadowed her 24 hours, seven days a week. He said no more catfights with Julianne nor kidnapping by his father. He had had enough, and he did not want to compromise for her safety. Of course, at first, Iris refused his idea. She thought that was a backward idea, and it felt stifling to have someone put an eye on her for every move. But that morning in her store, Sebastian backed him up and said she needed extra precautions. He finally won her, and he was a bit relieved and left Iris in her store and let her work as usual after the series of unfortunate events she had because of his insistence to make her his wife. “Can you close earlier, babe? I need you to come to the office. Sheila will pick you up later,” he said before he returned to the office and had a serious talk with his father. And also had to devise a mature plan with Sebastian to collect evidence more quickly on his father's involvement in the murder case that his

IRISShe spent the day in the store with a messy head. So much stuff was running inside her mind, and one of the biggest issues that took up her thought was about her accepting the marriage proposal from Alex last night.Maybe she was still shaken up about the last major event, which was the kidnapping by Alexander's father.Call her foolish, but she thought everything that Alex had offered to her last night made sense.Why would she suffer between the father and son war and the feud between the two conglomerate families - The Browning and The Ruthford family. She was a total stranger that coincidentally stumbled upon their orbit and had been pulled into this chaos ever since. But now she bore the consequences because Alexander Roman Browning laid his eyes on her that night. Her day came as a distraction. She was working on autopilot. She smiled when the customers came and let her muscle memories handle her baking process from start to finish. She even miscalculated the change for tw

She and Sheila only needed one hour–to pack her clothes and other essential toiletries into her suitcases. She also loaded her mixers and cake utensils into the car. When Sheila said she could buy the newest and state-of-the-art utensils for her spare tools in the penthouse, Iris politely declined.“Oh, your loss, girl!” Sheila replied with exasperation.It was so weird when she arrived in the grand and luxurious building, where the top floor was where she would live from now on.The team of concierges also greeted her in front of the receptionist's desk. They helped her and Sheila into the private lift that brought her to the penthouse.The situation in the penthouse was the same as she was here last time. Pristine, luxurious ye

Trapped By A Billionaire EPILOG
Three months later… Alex walked out of the courthouse with Iris beside him. He kept Iris close and believed their bodyguards do their work perfectly to fend off the rush of journalists waiting outside. The buzz of the journalist throwing off the questions for them made Alex more protective of his pregnant wife. “Stay with me,” he said to Iris closely, in case Iris could not hear him well. Iris only nodded and put her body closer to him while walking together into their Rolls Royce car that was already on standby and waiting for their arrival. “Mr. Browning, how is the trial? Are you happy with the sentence? What do you feel that your father is a criminal convict?” The journalists viciously gave a bunch of questions at him, from the fair questions to the silliest and the most outrageous ones. “Mrs. Browning, are you alright? Do you think the sentence is fair after what Jonathan did to you? Please give us statements!” Some journalists shouted from afar, chasing Iris and Alex do
Trapped By A Billionaire Chapter 86 - Happy News!
Alex went into full panic mode. He barked some orders here and there to prepare the driver to bring them to the hospital. Asking the ever-ready Brandon to prepare everything beforehand. From the hospital to the most prominent team of doctors to standby in the hospital and be ready when they arrived there. Iris at first refused Alex's protective–almost borderline panic insistence for them to check her situation at the hospital. She thought she was only having a bad day or had caught some common cold symptoms. But Alex was having none of it. He was persistent with his decision to bring her to the hospital and heard himself that she was okay. So here there was. The car was too slow for Alex, so he opted to call the pilot for his private helicopter to be ready in the next 15 minutes. They left the rooftop and arrived several minutes later at the hospital helipad. The hospital director was already on standby on the tarmac while the nurse brought the wheelchair to carry her! Iris
Trapped By A Billionaire Chapter 85 - Recovery
IRISSeveral days have passed since the kidnapping and the shooting of Alex. Her husband had already been discharged and recuperated in their penthouse. But, of course, he was still busy, as always. He was on the phone or focusing on his laptop, even when Iris asked him to pause and concentrate on his meal. He distractedly said okay but was still on the call with Brandon, Sheila, Noah Evans, and his other people. To appease her, Alex touched Iris here and there. He was making sure that he remembered Iris. But to be perfectly blunt, it was not her main objective. Her objective was to put her husband on bed rest and spend time in the penthouse–unwinding from the recent accident that cost him walking with crutches like this. "Alex! You need to eat something first!" Iris said when Alex distractedly took a slice of apples but ignored the main course that Iris already prepared, waiting for him to sit down and take the lunch together. "A minute, babe, I am still on call with Brandon," Al
Trapped By A Billionaire Chapter 84 - The Situation After
Alex felt that he was getting lighter and might pass out soon. But he still ensured Iris was okay and no harm was done to her. “Are you hurt, baby?” Alex asked his wife, who was still crying, seeing how wrecked his thigh was after getting shot. Iris shook her head and watched how Sebastian expertly administered first aid to his wound. One of Sebastian's men already called the police and ambulance to take them. “My father?” Alex asked Sebastian. “He and Jake are wounded. My men neutralized them. I will check them after taking care of you first,” Sebastian responded seriously. Time went blurry in his perspective. Not long after, the ambulance and police sirens were heard outside, and finally, the first responders came and took over the procedures. When one of the police came intending to question Alex and Iris–Sebastian stepped in and answered all the inquiries. “I will take care of it. Don’t worry. I already asked Brandon to accompany you and Iris to the hospital while I deal wi
Trapped By A Billionaire Chapter 83 - Retrieval Operation
ALEXANDER Alexander was busy being the CEO interim before the legal paperwork was done and held back-to-back nonstop meetings until he received a call from Sebastian. He frowned and finally asked the remaining directors who still got the post to take a break, and they dutifully left the meeting room. Leaving Alex with his two assistants and his personal lawyer. “Sebastian?” Alex received the call from the first ring. “What is it?” he asked Sebastian. “Someone breaking in and rob Iris’s store–” Sebastian briefed him quickly, and he cursed his heart out. “What the fuck is that mean? How is Iris now? Is she safe? Where are your men, Sebastian?” He rapidly threw questions at Sebastian. He rose from the seat and nodded at Brandon–gesturing that he would deal with this issue and asked his assistant to deal with the rest in the office. “Where is she now?” Alex barked while waiting for the lift door to open and brought him to his car in the basement. “Where is the robber?” He fe
Trapped By A Billionaire Chapter 82 - Retaliation
When Iris heard that man's phone ringing, Iris focused on him. "How is it?" that man asked his caller. "Can you set up the bail on him? How much is it? I will transfer right now!" added him. He then glanced at Iris–borderline fascinated, making her shiver because she was uncomfortable with how he stared at her. "Sure, let me know when Jonathan will arrive here. We can start negotiating with Alex then." After that, he ended the call and turned to her with a slimy smile she hated profoundly. "Now, Mrs Browning, rest and wait until Jonathan comes here. We will talk a lot after this," "Who are you?" Iris asked him again.
Trapped By A Billionaire Chapter 81 - The Fallouts
IRIS After the last night dining with Alex, Iris got a new perspective and advice from him concerning how she opened the new store. With a calculator in front of her and a laptop to calculate the initial expense and capital she needed for the new business–Iris stared at the Excel sheet blankly. Too many zeros, and Iris could not keep up. She recalculated again, and still, the numbers were not changing. She was pondering the numbers deeply when her phone rang again. She checked the caller, and it was the realtor. “Oh, hi! Sorry for the late response,” Iris greeted the realtor. She replied while she inspected the qu

The meeting room was buzzing with anticipation.Alex and his two assistants came earlier than his father and the cronies. Alexander was also accompanied by his lawyer–ready to back him up for today’s meeting.His father’s ‘former’ supporters came flooding the room one by one. They sent a discreet glance at Alex. Ensuring Alex was true to his words and would not leak their filthy criminal and offensive acts to the press surely brought them down.But Alex sat still with a perfect poker face. His opponents could not see and not understand what he was thinking."All the preparation is already in motion. We can strike the attack at your sign," Brandon whispered."Yes, let

"What do you mean unlimited?" Iris asked him with a horrified expression. But still, in his mind, her face was extremely cute, so he could not stop smiling at her. "That's exactly what I said. No budget for you. Just spend whatever you wish, baby! I won't stop you, my personal accountant or financial advisors," he replied casually just before the chef served the first course of their omakase fine dining style at this restaurant. Iris was just shaking her head in disbelief. "I am serious, Alex! You can't just answer my question like that! I need you to tell me honestly how much I should spend if I want to make a branch for my small shop," Iris, in reflex, took his sleeve-asking for his undivided attention given solely to her. “Alright, I am listening to you now,” he turned and focused on her. He drew his body closer to her until he smelled her divine scent throughout his nose. Iris was flustered when he charged like that. In front of the chef–no less!“What is it, baby? What do yo
