Trapped By A Billionaire Chapter 48 - Wedding Preparation
IRIS Days came in and out blurry in Iris’ dazed mind. After she had a dress fitting two days ago and Alex came to check up on her–her days were filled with Sheila and the ultra-fast preparation for the wedding. She had to put an announcement in front of her shop, stating that the shop would be closed for one week due to personal reasons. Iris also regrettably had to cancel the order and profusely apologize to her loyal customers because she couldn’t make the cupcakes. Now, she was waiting for the head florist to bring the sample of the flower bouquet for the venues, and she looked around the exclusive flower shop that usually caters for the wedding of high-end private clientele. For people like Alexander Roman Browning, and by extension, for her. “I think a bunch of lilacs is a lovely choice. What do you think, Iris?” Sheila asked her, and it made her stop daydreaming in the middle of the appointment room. “Oh, I love flowers. Anything will do, honestly,” Iris replied candidly

Sheila brought her to a private club with her eyes closed by the black silk eye mask. She left the bachelorette party in Sheila’s hand. Iris just hoped that tonight would go without any significant problems. Remembering how crazy and spontaneous Sheila was–made her nervous and anxious. But Sheila assured Iris that everything was under control. “Leave it to me. You will leave this room ready to be a Mrs. Browning. This is the last time you become a single lady!” “Let’s have fun before Alex sniffs around and busts the party!” Sheila said with a string of fun giggles. Iris blinked to adjust her vision after Sheila led her to a special room–the opulent private room situated in the high-end nightclub in this luxury hotel. He could faintly hear the sound of EDM music played by a DJ from outside this soundproof room. The music was set in a sultry and seductive mood in this room. The lighting of this private room was also artfully set up to enhance th

ALEXANDERHe woke up first before Iris. It was understandable because his fiancee was totally out since last night’s bachelorette party, courtesy of his meddlesome but wholesome assistant–Sheila. Alex couldn’t get tired of seeing Iris peacefully sleep beside him in his bed. Knowing she was safe and sound under his protection was a satisfying feeling. He kissed her once again before he went out of bed and started his day. Iris only frowned in her sleep but did not wake up when he kissed her forehead. Alex chuckled when he saw that. His woman was really cute. He took a quick shower and put the coffee machine on work. While he was waiting for the coffee, he opened his iPad and checked emails for work-related and also from Sebastian regarding the progress of their investigations. He promised Adam to meet today and has already prepared the best proposal for him to invest in the Asia Pacific expansion investment. If the scheme and proposal were successful, Alex would use this to cemen

After he parted ways with Iris, Brandon brought him to Adam’s office. “Do you know what Julianne and her family are up to these days? They surprisingly stay low,” Alex mused, and Brandon answered him while he rechecked their proposal and its supplementary document they brought to the meeting with Adam. “It looks like they plan something behind your back, and I know that your father is still persistently talking with the Ruthford, maybe still hoping the deal is sealed, with or without your involvement,” Brandon said. “Can you find out what they are brewing behind me?” Alex gave an inquiry to Brandon, and his assistant only nodded, a sign he heard Alex well and would proceed with the request. “You got it, Boss!” Brandon suddenly said random things to him. He raised his left eyebrow. “What do you mean?” he asked back. “I know you have a lot on your plates right now,” Brandon told him. “But I have faith that you can sort them out. I’ve seen how you worked, and even though I c

Adam nodded and held out his hand for them to shake hands. “Deal, I will support you. You can start by sending me the detailed version of this proposal and prepare to talk with my directors and legal team to sort out the agreement,” Adam said to Alex. “Thank you, Adam. Your support means a lot to me and the essentially needed for the survival of the employees and business of Browning Enterprise.” Alex shook Adam’s hand firmly. A symbolic gesture that they were joining forces. Adam dismissively received his compliment. “You talk business. Then we deal with this professionally,” Adam stated. Maybe he knew that, at first, Alex’s angle was something personal involving his bad history between Adam and Ruthford's family. But fortunately, he pivoted and chose to talk business purely. So here they were. Adam would be his potential business partner, and Alex was ready to execute his next plan to take over the company and let his father rot in jail. “I will do that. Expect Brandon or my o

IRISThey would be married soon. Now it felt as accurate as it could get. Iris’ hands felt clammy because she couldn’t contain her nervousness for the next moment. Even when she put on the dreamy wedding dress that she had chosen several days ago with the approval of her best friends–her heart stuttered, and she breathed choppily for several seconds. The silky smooth dress that flowed in elegance when she crossed the bathroom to the makeup station in this presidential suite hotel made Rose and Elena gasp in awe. “Oh, my God! You are so beautiful!” Rose looked at her with misty eyes. “Do I?” Iris felt anxious. When the makeup artist started doing her job, she told Iris, “Ms Denver, your face is like porcelain, clean and perfectly proportioned. I feel so happy having you as my client. You are effortlessly beautiful, and so easy for me to make you up. The base is already perfect!” said the makeup artist Megan. Pedro, the hair stylist, also complimented her curly auburn red hair. H

Iris waved her free hand to Alex shortly when he greeted her, and it made the officiant and the guests chuckle at her antics. Thankfully her silliness could lighten the mood. “Shall we start, the bride and the groom? Ladies and Gentlemen?” All the guests murmured okay, and it was the cue for the officiant to start the ceremony. The Priest started to talk, and he gave such a beautiful speech about marriage life and how love was such a miracle and a strong foundation for the couple who experienced them in their lives. The atmosphere was running solemnly until the priest led Alex to say his marriage vows. Alex talked confidently and repeated his vows while looking at Iris deeply. “I, Alexander Roman Browning, take you, Iris Patricia Denvier, to be my wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better for worse, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do us part.”Iris choked up when she heard his vows. And when it was her time t

ALEXANDER The wedding ceremony ran smoothly. He was legally Iris’ husband. They exchanged vows at ease. He made his vows solemnly and meant every word he said. A surge of feeling coursed through his body when the Priest pronounced them husband and wife in front of God. Now he led Iris in his hand into the garden for their private party reception. Their small guests already waited for them in their designated seats arranged by the wedding organizer led by his assistant—Sheila. She was a busybody that everyone needed. She made his wedding run without hassle, and he would gladly give her another annual bonus once he successfully took over his father’s position in the company. The garden party looked like a 100% Iris theme. Floral, sweet, feminine, yet still elegant. “How do you like the party?” Alex checked up on his wife once again. She looked like a dazed beautiful woman lost in a wonderland. “It is incredible! I couldn’t say thank you enough to Sheila, who made this come true

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

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

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
