All Chapters of Billionaire Surrendered: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

When I hung up the call, I noticed that my mother was pressing my shoulders with a slight excitement. I turned to look into the space between the front seats, and found her with a malicious expression on her face."You didn't tell me that you called your boss, who paid for your first-class trip, by name. "She smiled, moving her eyebrows. I laughed when she started imitating my voice in a squeaky tone. "Jack that, Jack that. Thank you, Jack. Of course, Jack. Jokes with Jack. Jack, Jack, and Jack.”"Mom, for God's sake, he himself demanded this kind of treatment," I explained, because even Raphael was laughing at my mother's tone of voice. "He is dear to all the employees. Besides, part of his team is made up of women, so he acquired an affectionate way of treating all of us. It doesn't mean that he has any interest in me.”"Do you have an interest in him?”"No, mom. I haven't been involved with anyone in... like, years.”“ Liar.”I closed my expression."It's serious. I haven't been ou

"Mom, do you think Dad made me a monster?”My mother leaned over to see my face, because my head was slightly lowered. She seemed outraged.“Rebecca, who said that about you? You would never be a monster, especially because of your father. That has nothing to do with it. You are two totally different people.”" But do you say that because you are my mother, or because you really don't believe that I would do anything intentionally to put me in danger?”My mother was in doubt, looking more and more annoyed with the direction to which the subject was taking. Well, she didn't want to have that conversation, but I had said to end the damn subject about men long before it came up. The problem was that she didn't want to listen to me."I want to know exactly what you could have done to put yourself in danger, daughter.”I gestured with my shoulders, holding my gaze on my hands on my lap."I may have looked for men who did not respect me at all, or for men with complicated and obscure lives,

"Yes, I'm still going out with him," I gestured with my shoulders. "I need to relieve my head. Besides, Fred was having lunch with another woman today.”My mother made a shocked tone.“ Lie? Who?”"I didn't even want to know, but he doesn't have problems with lack of option, so it can be anyone. No one would refuse to go out with him.”"I need to meet this man," she joked, shaking. "Have you not thought about calling him to try to sort things out in a different place?”I frowned."No, and I don't think he would even come. Fred is a very busy man, Mom. He owns his own business, and I'm not talking about a simple grocery store or silly stuff. He is important, and would not lose something profitable to come after me. Even if I promised that I would apologize for all the shit and nonsense I talked about last time.”My mother laughed, looking away at her hands, checking her nails absent-mindedly."You know that Rapha also likes you, don't you? And it's not a silly like, it's a very old lik

I left my cell phone on top of the nightstand and went to the bathroom to take a shower. I turned on the two taps on my bathtub and waited. I knew it hadn't been a bad idea to buy an apartment in Georgia, I knew it would be useful for something. I left my clothes on the floor, getting completely naked. I checked the water temperature and went in completely.The apartment in Georgia had not been bought just because of Becca. I didn't even know if she would ever return to that state, remembering everything she had already spent there with her family. However, as I was always traveling, I preferred something fixed over hotels, for the sake of privacy.A few seconds ago I was on my cell phone with Becca, she seemed surprised to answer my call. And to make my mood worse, I was still accompanied by the same boy who took her to the restaurant, even telling me by email that he was just a friend, there was something inside me that was not convinced of it.I sank completely in the water, even c

The fresh and fresh air touched us as soon as we left the nightclub. The security guard at the door did not move a single muscle while Becca struggled over my shoulder, asking to leave her on the floor. I only left her free when we were already near the car, she kept fighting me, but it was easy to put her leaning against the passenger door."You're such an asshole! "She cursed. "A real shitty asshole.”I took a deep breath, embodying the nanny to have to deal with an hurt drunk."You're just a little more altered than usual. I'll take it out.”"Fuck you, Fred. I got tired of all this bullshit.”“What bullshit, Becca?”She widened her eyes and gestured with her hands, in a very indignant pose."What do you mean? Which one do you want to know? Because you're an idiot in every way. You kicked me out for a ridiculous reason. You tore the contract. You chased me, put people to chase me too, and still come to tell me that you don't know what the problem is? YOU. You're the problem, Fred. I
