All Chapters of My Cold Billionaire: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

The sunlight began to dim, replaced by golden shimmering clouds as the day turned to evening. Kimberly hurriedly organized the scattered papers on her work desk. Glancing at her phone screen on top of the printer, she saw two messages from her friends. Keyra: [Hurry! If you take too long, I'll leave without you.]Alex: [Come on, Kimberly. Keyra and I have been waiting for you in the car.]Kimberly took a deep breath. "Ah, it's this late, and Mr. Ice still hasn't gone home. Don't tell me he's working overtime." Not long after, the man they had been waiting for finally emerged from the room. Kimberly quickly approached him. "Mister, are you heading home?" Kimberly asked eagerly. "Hmm..." "Well, in that case, I'm going to say goodbye and leave. See you tomorrow, Mister." "Kimmy, I..." Nicholas began, but Kimberly left him hanging, quickly walking away before he could finish his sentence. The man could only shake his head at his secretary's behavior. In a boutique at a shopping cent

Kimberly was busy styling her long brown hair into a chignon hairstyle, elegantly exposing her slender neck and nape. Her makeup was subtle, accentuating her beauty. Almost perfect, Kimberly.Now, she just had to wait for her prince to come and pick her up. Tonight, she had chosen to wear a salem-colored off-shoulder dress with a cocktail-style lower half. Kimberly looked stunning. She remembered Mario's words from some time ago; he had mentioned that she looked more beautiful in this dress. Ah yes, Mario. Suddenly, Kimberly thought of him – her childhood friend whom she had loved but now despised because of the cursed arranged marriage orchestrated by Uncle Arthur. After her parents passed away a few years ago, Kimberly had been living under the care of Uncle Arthur. However, when the old man tried to matchmake her with Mario last year, Kimberly vehemently refused. How could she marry her childhood friend? Mario, on the other hand, didn't object at all; he even agreed to the crazy

Nicholas glanced momentarily at the cellphone screen in front of him, allowing the device to keep ringing, forcing himself to answer it soon. It wasn't due to hesitation, but rather to gather his courage. He was certain that something would happen after picking up that call, as it always seemed to be the case. Taking a slow breath, Nicholas assured himself and swiped the green symbol on the cellphone screen to begin speaking. "Hello..." "It's been a long time, Mama hasn't heard from you, Nick. Are you too busy over there?" There was a hint of annoyance in each word. Nicholas took a deep breath first, then replied, "Ma, how are you? I'm sorry if I've been too busy lately to contact you." "It's okay, honey. I've been better. So, how about you? Have you found a prospective wife over there?" Nicholas fell silent for a moment, knowing exactly where this conversation was headed. After some thought, he chose the right answer to avoid his mother dwelling on the subject of a potential wif

Alex and Keyra couldn't stop laughing as they listened to what Kimberly had shared in her office earlier this afternoon. As known, almost everything she experienced, she always shared with her two friends. To her, in this world, the two of them were the ones who always faithfully listened to Kimberly's complaints. They were also the ones who were always there when Kimberly needed help. "Why didn't you just accept it right away?" Keyra protested. "Even though this is beneficial, Kimmy. You won't have to make an effort to chase Mr. Nicholas anymore. Moreover, if you reject it, you might get fired, right?" Alex chimed in. Kimberly sighed in frustration. "Okay, I do want to be Mr. Ice's partner. But it's not the way to go about it. This is like he's using me as a shield to avoid his parents. I want him to be sincere and genuinely be my partner, not because there's an ulterior motive like this!" Alex smirked. "Weren't you the one who used to treat Mr. Nicholas as a bet? So now you rea

Nicholas hurriedly entered the Bengawan Restaurant on the first floor of Keraton Residence. From a distance, his eyes caught sight of a woman he knew well, enjoying the night view from behind the restaurant's window. Before approaching, Nicholas observed the woman from afar for a moment. His mind was still full of questions. What was the reason his secretary was suddenly so insistent on staying in his apartment? Even now, Kimberly was still wearing her work clothes, indicating she hadn't returned to her place yet. This only made Nicholas wonder even more about what Kimberly was hiding or planning. "Is the view outside so captivating that you didn't notice my presence?" Nicholas asked as he took a seat in the restaurant. Kimberly suddenly realized and shifted her gaze to where Nicholas was sitting. "The view here is beautiful, I like it." Nicholas crossed his arms. "So, explain everything to me!" Kimberly raised one of her eyebrows. "Explain what? I think I've already told you ever
