Trapped By A Billionaire 68 - The Preparation Stage
A weekend he spent with Iris felt like a short wink, and when Alex opened his eyes again, he was suddenly back in his office. Dealing with the upcoming shareholder’s meeting to topple his down, courtesy to his father. He walked with Brandon to his office where he would sort out the mess one by one, and he would likely start the motion to make his father taste his medicine. First, Alex would isolate him and make sure all the support of his father’s agenda was utterly withdrawn. No one of his supporters would dare enough to test Alex–hence he prioritized checking what he could do to strike fast and hard his father’s supporters. He opened the documents and read them carefully. Most of the contents were abhorrent. He did not know these kinds of cockroaches were working in his company. But again, birds of the same feather flock together. Alex shook his head disgustedly. “Are the reports valid?” Alex made sure once again to Brandon. His assistant nodded, “Yes, I’ve checked the proofs

Alexander spent his day working, doing back-to-back meetings—primarily some exhaustive yet productive meetings with Adam and his personal lawyer, Noah Evans.“Adam, let’s wrap it up. Brandon has sent you a detailed contract that I am sure is attached with a fair amount of numbers that would back your investment in our projects in Asia Pacific,”“You know so well those regions are rapidly developing and our involvement there will make our presence known in the future.” Alex commenced as the closing statement in their conference meeting for the last two hours.“Alright, let’s seal the deal, Alexander. I am looking forward to the fruitful result for my investment,” Adam concluded the meeting and stated that he agreed with the proposal and was willing to

Alexander was still pondering the best way to answer his lawyer's question. "Tell me, what is my option or my possible choices?" Alex asked back. "Well, I prefer just to launch a petition to the court for contesting the will for the cause of the doubt of validity and authenticity. It's a common procedure, and the process will be easier if we have solid proof." Noah replied to him on a serious note. "But how do we get solid proof to say the Will is fake and already modified illegally?" Noah mused and thought deeply. "Don't you think Sebastian has his hands full with all of your tasks?" Even before Alex uttered Sebastian's name in this discussion, Sheila interjected his thoughts and voiced her concerns. "Prioritize your work, Alex! Not everything needed to be done at this exact timeline." Like a whip, Sheila's commanding voice tried to argue with his logic and reasoning on why he needed to finish all these messes as soon as possible. "Launch the petition before the shareholder's m

IRISShe opened her store with limited goods to sell today. She made a few cupcakes, macarons, and three kinds of cakes from the remaining ingredients from the store freezer. Not long after she put up the open sign, her regular customers greeted her curiously. Some even blatantly peeked at her finger ring and inquired whether she was married. “Are you married? Congratulations!” One of her customers shrieked enthusiastically. Iris blushed after hearing their heartfelt congratulation on her quiet marriage. “Thank you, that’s kind of you.” That was her shy response. “I heard your husband is a young and handsome billionaire. My cousin even gave me his pictures from Tattlers Magazine. What a lucky lady you are!” said one of her customers, who leaned her body into the counter. A hint of jealousy was displayed on her face. Iris felt awkward with those intrusive questions, so she chose to deflect the question and rather be comfortable picking up their orders and finishing them soon. “Mi

Iris had not yet recovered from her surprise because of the sudden spike in her saving income when the front door opened, and she saw who was coming. Julianne was coming with her head held high. A man was walking together beside Julianne. His face was familiar, but Iris could not pinpoint who this person was. “Iris,” Julianne greeted her with an annoying voice. Two of Sebastian’s men came inside and reached Iris a moment later. Their intention was clear. They would protect Iris, especially since their boss had already briefed them about the beefing between Julianne and Iris. Of course, those men were alert and 100% ready to tackle the upcoming obstacle. “Julianne,” Iris tilted her head. She was waiting for the next move from her guests. “And who are you?” she glanced at the man beside Julianne. "My brother," Julianne replied. "Daniel Ruthford." Iris was silent. Sebastian's men were looking at Iris, waiting for her next order. Whether she wanted to remove them or not. Iris disc

ALEXANDERAlex was busy with folders and reports that he had to finish by today. He was also monitoring and waiting for the news from Brandon regarding their plan to ‘blackmail’ his father’s supposed supporters for the upcoming board meeting.Sheila and Noah Evans were busy at Adam Navarro’s office to close the deal and contract within this week.It left him to do the remaining workloads alone in his office. He knew his father was not in the office because he might be busy with his mistress. Too bad he did not know what would come to him soon. Heaps of problems would catch him up, and Alex would make sure his father was buried deep. He could not even escape from hell.

Every move Iris created always made him feel content and amused.Just like this moment when they had lunch.Iris’s eyes became big like a saucer when he offered to help her expand her cupcake business.“What?” she asked him once again.“You heard me, I think if I ask you to stop working, you will likely fight me tooth and nails, right?” he said and chuckled upon seeing her response.“I still want to work. I love my job,” she whispered.“I know, baby,” he said in an understanding tone.“That’s what I love about you,” he cont

They were deep in their love. He kissed her passionately, gained immediate access, and deepened the kiss. Their breath fused, and their heartbeats were beating synchronically. Iris was unable to resist Alex's relentless attacks, and she was yielding and instinctively putting her body closer to his. He took this opportunity to explore every curve of his wife's beautiful body. Her petite body, yet perfectly molded in his hand. “Alex, what if someone comes here?” Her breathy voice made him transported back into reality. He quickly got lost every time he got intimate with Iris. He would likely tease her more, but seeing that she was truly anxious if someone dared enough to come into his office uninvited, Alex finally loosened his hold and exhaled. “Alright, baby. I will close the door,” he said and was ready to go to the door and lock it. He also planned to warn one of the receptionists not to admit any guests inside his office. But before he executed the plan, Iris grabbed his

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

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
