All Chapters of The Hidden Billionaire: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Two more weeks had passed by quickly, and I was at Lakeview Academy for a total of a month and a half. Each day was the same, I would wake up, go to lessons, collect homework and finish it, do my actual work until late hours at night before sleeping and it repeats the next day. It had also been two weeks since I had seen Levi. Now that we've found out who the person was, I had to be careful not to be spotted with Levi regularly because it would only put him in harm's way. The four year old didn't understand, of course, and threw tantrums but I had managed to calm him down by video calling him every night. These were my favourite parts of the day. What was different though within these two weeks, was that there were rumours about how I had achieved a scholarship to the prestigious school. At first people believed that it was my academic ability that landed this scholarship, but now they believe otherwise. Apparently, I had slept with the Dean to get into school and Elijah because t

Joseph as requested the previous day had managed to schedule a meeting, and book my hotel for three days. I would be arriving in Paris in the afternoon once we leave JFK airport where my private jet was scheduled to depart at eight in the morning. The others had no idea that I was leaving today, and once morning came, I had gotten ready for the day. I wore a beige business suit with matching cigarette trousers, paired with a white top. I had on nude heels, my black hair in a high ponytail after I had straightened it. It was nearly half past seven, so I exited my room and made my way to the school's exit and drove my koenigsegg Regera that arrived yesterday night near the Academy to the airport- luckily I wasn't noticed by anyone as it was too early in the morning. My car could drive itself automatically to any destination that I set on my phone and so when I had received the phone call from Joseph, I had set the destination to a secluded corner near the Academy so that I had a ride

Time was relative. Einstein once had mentioned that the rate at which time passes depends on the person's frame of reference. It would be slow for some and fast for others. Now as I opened my inbox to check my emails for the day in the comfort of my own room- Joseph's name was at the top reminding me that it was the time for monthly review. Three months had gone by in a blink of an eye. My phone pinged- a notification displayed on its screen from the Academy. I had a delivery to collect from reception. I was confused for a few seconds before I realised that it must be the prototype for The Edge and the laptop. I grabbed my phone, keys, my student ID and locked my room door behind me, proceeding to walk towards reception. The wait lasted for a few minutes before I was assisted. "What can I do for you?". "Good afternoon, I am here to collect the post under the name Avalon Gracia". I gave her my identification. The lady looked down at her file confirming my ID and entered the storag

Elijah's POVI couldn't sleep for a long time. My thoughts was constantly going back to Avalon. I had noticed that she hadn't spoken much yesterday, not when we were at the Kingston Ltd shop, nor when went to eat, not when we came back. It looked like she was bothered by something, and I knew that the others noticed as well. I saw the tears in her eyes that she tried to blink away when I asked her if she was okay. But when we came back, she had left to her room and we were all confused. We had thought that she'd come to dinner, but she skipped that. I was worried, so I looked for her around the academy. However when I found her sitting in the garden behind the academy, with Can't take my eyes off you by Frank Sinatra playing. Her head tilted up towards the stars, her eyes closed as silent tears leaked from her eyes - I froze. She hadn't noticed me then, it was as if she was playing memories through her head. I couldn't take my eyes off of her. I'd never seen Avalon display any emot

Once Levi fell asleep, I had decided that it would be best to carry on with the rest of the activities that I had planned for him afterwards. So all of us went back to the park that I had met Ian at the beginning of the day, so that Levi could be taken back home whilst we waited. I didn't want the others to know where the house was. I knew that the others were confused, shocked at my behaviour and had many questions but I wouldn't answer any of them. They had observed me as if I were a specimen wanting to figure out. It was the first time that they had seen me without my blank mask. Albeit there were some instances where I would be annoyed, or my lips would twitch at something stupid Max did - I'd never laughed or smiled in front of them. I was watching a smiling and giggling Levi who was playing with Austin and Lena in the grass in front of us. Max and Jax in their own world concentrated on a game of thumb-war with Tyler as their referee. Aspen and Harper talking next to us. It was
