Trapped by the cold billionaire Chapter Thirty two
William Caddel~•~Eliana was back home early and it was weird because I was expecting her to come back sometime later, which was why I didn’t refuse Duke and George’s visit. Since the only two other people who had access to my house were already present, it meant she was the one using the private elevator at that moment.Her lesson was supposed to last for a few hours but she was already back so soon. Did something happen? Or did her instructor cancel on her?As soon as Camilla noticed that someone was coming up, she ran to the elevator to find out who it was. She was a nosy little thing that couldn’t be stopped. Lately, the seven-year-old had gotten more curious than ever.One minute later, both Eliana and Camilla came into the living room. Eliana’s eyes immediately sought me. Her gaze strayed to Duke and George who were in the kitchen. “Hi.” They both greeted in unison.However, she didn’t respond to them and returned her gaze to me. She looked down at Camilla, then at me. “You ha

Eliana Brown~•~William had to get a manual car to teach me how to drive. According to him, the car he wanted to lend to me was automatic but he wanted me to be able to get myself out of sticky situations if need be.He was the teacher so I had no choice but to listen to him.William, who was always busy, suddenly had time to teach me how to drive four times a week; Sundays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. It meant we were spending more time together than usual and Catherine was right, it gave me a chance to be closer to him.As expected, William was a lot more patient than my quick-to-anger driving instructor. The best part about it was that I didn’t have to pay for the lessons. Maybe I was taking advantage of William but if he didn’t complain, who was I to point it out?Being married to William was lowkey fun. He acted like a husband when we were alone and when we were outside, we had to act like we didn’t know each other. It was almost like we were secret lovers. We were just

William Caddel~•~I stared at my wristwatch, checking the time to see that Eliana must have been done with work by now.I had been at this meeting for more than an hour now and it wasn’t going anywhere. Eliana and I had driving lessons later today and I couldn’t stay any longer to hear him blab about nonsense.He saw me looking at my wristwatch and tutted. “You must be busy.”“I am,” I affirmed. “Which means I do not have the time to go back and forth with you. Eight million is my final price. Are you taking it or not?”Panic overtook his features. “What? Eight million?” Garrett spluttered. “You agreed on eight point seven a few weeks ago.”“And that offer has expired.” He was being silly. Any time I agreed on a price, he increased it. He was wasting my time on purpose and he knew damn well he wouldn’t get away with doing stupid shit like that. Then again he had someone backing him up; someone I was going to deal with as well. “Eight million dollars. Take it or leave it.”He scratche

William Caddel~•~By the time I reached my penthouse, there was another article circling around. It was another article of me and Sandra but this time the picture was of her poking her head in my vehicle. The angle made it seem like we were kissing while Duke stood by the side of the door, looking ahead.In the article, the writer was convinced that something was going on between us again. It was obvious this writer was different from the previous one and I could just tell it was one of Sandra’s cheap tricks to make people think we were back together. She thought I would succumb to the pressure and get with her again. She was delusional.It worked the last time because of my grandfather and there was also the fact that I didn’t like anyone back then. It was different this time. I was married. Even if the wedding was on false pretenses, I was married to the woman I wanted.“I wonder how your wife will react to this news.” Duke commented when he pulled over in the parking lot of my ap

Eliana Brown~•~I felt embarrassed. I had blown up on William even if he didn’t do anything to me.Sure he dated her in the past but that had nothing to do with me. He didn’t even know me then. There was also the fact that she could have hidden her true self from him. I had no right to yell at him like he did something wrong.He was an adult man who could date whoever he wanted with me interfering. I had told him I was angry but was I really? Sure I hated that woman but was that the reason I got irritated?Whatever the reason was, I couldn’t face him the next morning so I woke up as early as I could, got dressed, skipped breakfast, and went to work. It was the earliest I had been to work and there were only five people already present. The office was empty, almost like it was closing time.When Mr. Edward came in for the day, he was quite surprised to see me. He paused by my desk. “Bianca took the day off so I need you to visit the city hospital on her behalf.”“Alone?”“You’ll go wi

Eliana Brown~•~I was starting to get pissed off.At the lunch I attended, I was barely able to focus because I couldn't stop peering at William’s table. That day, a new article about him came out. In the article, they were contemplating if he was with Sandra or Olivia because their date seemed intimate. I wondered what that was going to do for their friendship but it merely annoyed me.I had told myself I had been angry the other day, but this time, I couldn’t deny that I was jealous. I hated seeing him intimate with other women. The thought that he might kiss him, fuck them…As if the second article wasn’t enough, he left the house on Saturday and I stayed at home just to see the third article of the week. This time, there were rumors about him and an Italian model. They had a supposed date earlier in the day, then they attended an event together.The writer was calling him a playboy. They thought he was playing the field, looking for someone to settle down with, but I was just pla

Eliana Brown~•~My breath hitched. “W-what?” Who said anything about fucking him? Was he doing it on purpose to fluster me or did he mean that question?He placed his thumb on my bottom lip, pulling it slightly. My mouth parted as I stared at him. “What are you so mad at, hmm? Are you worried about what grandfather will think or are you worried I’ll actually end up dating one of those women?”“I–““The truth only.” He interrupted me before I could cook up a lie. I had been lying so much in the past few days because of William. What was so bad in telling the truth just once? “What if I am?”“That’s not a clear answer. Are you worried or not?”There was no harm in admitting it, right? “I am.”“Good girl.” He let go of my bottom lip. “Now tell me why you’re worried.”What did he mean by that? Did he want me to admit that I liked him? Did he like me back? Or did he want to reject me gently? Unable to say the words, I shook my head.He arched an eyebrow. “Tell me, Eliana.” He prompted. “

William Caddel~•~I woke up the next morning with Eliana on top of me. She was naked and I was insanely aware of her breasts pressing against my chest but I couldn’t do anything about it.I didn’t want her to wake up anytime soon because I knew damn well she was going to revert to being shy after all we did last night. I wasn’t content yet but it was enough for the meantime.I wasn’t sure if she knew it but the position she was in at the moment was her basically declaring she was mine. I’d wanted her for so long that I could barely remember what it was like to not be obsessed with her. It was crazy. I was crazy.Opposite to what I wanted, I felt Eliana start to stir. She made a sound in her sleep, hugging me tighter as if we weren’t close enough already. It made me smile. Maybe she wanted me just as much as I wanted her. Yesterday proved that she liked me and she wanted me.I had done it on purpose; the date with Olivia and the date with that model. I knew the media was going to expo

William Caddel~•~As bright and early as six o'clock in the morning, Eliana knocked on my door and pulled me from sleep.I had woken up but I didn't move from the bed. When she got tired of knocking, she pushed the door open and walked in. “Wake up, Will. It's your birthday today.”I kept my eyes closed. She was announcing it like I didn't know that as well. “Will? William?” Her voice got closer and soon I could feel her presence right next to me. “Wake up, William. You are not usually a deep sleeper.” At this point, her face was right next to mine. “Are you doing it on purpose?”I responded by pulling her onto the bed and wrapping my arms around her. I let out a satisfied sigh, loving the feeling of her body mashed up against mine.“Will!” Her voice was muffled since her face was buried in my chest.“It's my birthday today.” I reminded her of what she said just a few seconds ago. “Let me enjoy this for a moment, please.”“Will.” She mumbled for the last time before she eventually g

Eliana Brown ~•~I was crazy.I had told myself to do a lot of thinking before I approached Will but as soon as he cornered me, I melted into his arms immediately. It was scary. He had so much power over me and he didn't even know it.It wasn't the first time we were kissing but unlike the first time, I felt really embarrassed. I didn't even know how to leave my room, but if I didn't do that soon, I was going to be very late.Taking a deep breath, I finally arranged my bag and opened my room door quietly. When it was open, I looked around the hallway. Thankfully, it was all clear.I held my heels in my hand and tiptoed down the stairs. I didn't dare go into the kitchen no matter how thirsty I was. I kept my gaze on my focus as I slowly approached the corridor.So close to teaching my target, I was beyond shocked when I felt an arm around my waist. I didn't even have enough time to be surprised before I was suddenly lifted up.“What are you doing, Will!?” I yelled in horror as he plac

William Caddel~•~I kissed her immediately and I could feel it when her defenses fell. She melted against me and kissed me back with equal fervor, wrapping her arms around my neck and pulling me closer to herself.I groaned against her lip in satisfaction but for some reason, the sound had her pulling away to stare at me.I didn't give her time to reflect on her actions as I pulled her in for another kiss. This time, she wrapped her legs around my waist, eliminating any space between us. I was pressed up against her and my hands were running up and down her body, trying to touch her everywhere at the same time.“Will.” She whispered against my lips.“Hmm?” I captured her bottom lip in my mouth once again, sucking without restriction. When I pulled away, her cheeks were flushed and her lips were swollen. “Yes?”“I- I missed you.”I felt my chest tighten with excitement. When I first saw Eliana, I had thought it was just a minor obsession that would eventually pass. I thought she was j

William Caddel~•~As I brainstormed on ways to make my woman forgive me, I was interrupted by a call.It happened to be Duke. I frowned, wondering why he was calling. We just parted ways a few hours ago. I answered the call and brought my phone up to my ear. “Yeah?”“I came over to drop some files before I take my leave.”I rolled my eyes. “You could have dropped them at the office. Also, why are you calling me? Can't you just head up?” He had unrestricted access to my house and could come and go as he pleased.“Well, that's the thing. I saw a familiar face lurking around the complex.”“Who?”“Eliana’s ex.” He answered. “I'm not sure what he's trying to do but he's not going in or leaving. He's just there.” How he managed to figure out where she lived wasn't my problem, but didn't he know that a woman typically lived with her husband? He was getting close to stalking at this point and I only needed one mistake from him to throw him in jail. I didn't mind if it made me sound like a b

Eliana Brown~•~“So you've completely forgiven him then?” Catherine asked over the phone.“When did I say that?”“You just came back from having dinner with him, babe. Do you even need to say it?”I bit down on my bottom lip, feeling stupid. I had made a fuss about how he had behaved, even went as far as running away from his place, only to come back to him without hesitation. “I'm such a fool, aren't I?”I didn't just come back to his house. I was even helping to plan his birthday. I was going out of my way to do something for him despite being angry at him and when he asked me out for dinner, I couldn't help but say yes.In my defense though, I was happy that my boss came back from his office angrier than she was when she left. It meant that he didn't try to coddle her feelings when she went to complain about me. William had always been a straightforward man but it seemed like he never explicitly rejected her. I assumed he did so, which was why she came back angry. My stupid ass sa

William Caddel~•~I was in my office, working when Duke suddenly came in. “Olivia is here to see you.”I frowned. “She didn't inform me beforehand.”Duke shrugged. “She looks angry though.”I let out a sigh. She was difficult to handle whenever she was angry. I could only hope she wasn't making things hard for Eliana. Eliana would never let me know even if she was being bullied. “Let her in.”As soon as I said those words, Olivia came through the door, not waiting for Duke to send her in. Duke bit down on his lip, holding his laugh as he exited the office, leaving us alone together.“Is there a problem?” I questioned, not looking up from my work.She stomped toward my desk and banged something on it. It was my birthday invitation card. What had Eliana done? Why did she invite her?“I would have thought our years of friendship would mean something to you.” She hissed. “You couldn't even invite me yourself. A simple text or call would have sufficed but you just had to go through your w

Eliana Brown ~•~I placed a knock on my boss’s door and waited for her to permit me before I walked in.She was surprised to see me in her office but was also quick to mask it and look away.“I'm sure whatever you need to tell me can be passed down from your department head.” She spoke, not caring to look at me. She didn't try to hide her hatred for me. She hated me even more for the fact that firing me would be directly going against William; her investor and the man she loved.I didn't know if it made me a bad person but I didn't try to sympathise with her. If anything, I was here to rub my marriage in her face. She would fire me if she could. Why should I try to coddle her feelings?I walked closer to her desk and placed the envelope on it without you saying anything.She stared at the envelope, then at me, and back at the envelope. Slowly but surely, she took hold of it and opened it to reveal the invitation inside. When she saw what it was, she laughed humorlessly. “You've bee

Eliana Brown~•~William had taken me out to hang out with his friends. I didn't even know when I agreed to follow him since I lowkey resented his friends.They all knew all that he had done. They watched me fall for the man stupidly. They most likely thought I was a naive fool stupid enough to fall for someone like their friend. I was especially angry at Duke. He was with us almost every weekday. He even helped William make plans for us. I wondered what he was thinking each day when he saw me.However, hanging out with them wasn't so bad, especially with the presence of Camilla, who claimed all three men as her fathers. There was a bit of tension but Camilla and her new nanny eased it.When Camilla got tired, it was time to go home, but instead of going home, William suggested we visit his grandfather.“He's getting weaker by the day but refuses to admit it.” He had told me. It was enough to convince me.I didn't see the man much since he was always in the hospital but he was genuine

William Caddel~•~Eliana was lowering her guard against me and I couldn't be happier.She was not going out of her way to speak to me but she wasn't avoiding me anymore either. It could only get better from there. She answered my questions politely rather than being sarcastic or making a snarky remark. I was happy about that.After her crazy day at work the previous day, it was finally the weekend. “How do you want me to deal with your ex?” I asked as I joined her on the couch. She shifted to the edge a bit but I pretended not to notice.“Must you?”“How persistent is he?” “Quite a lot.”“Then I must,” I told her honestly. He looked violent and it seemed like he might have truly hurt her the previous day if I hadn't intervened in time. I couldn't just sit still and wait for him to attack her. I wouldn't be able to sleep at night if I didn't know that he was tamed yet. “So tell me how to deal with him.”Her cheeks heated up. “Why are you asking me that? How would I know?”It was cut
