All Chapters of Billionaire's Heart: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Liam felt guilty for the way he ignored her and was going through turmoil in his mind trying to decide if he should go in.He wanted to have as limited contact as possible with her father because he didn't trust him, but he also felt like her mother and siblings couldn't be so bad.As Liam stood outside the house, he couldn't help but feel torn between his distrust for Ashley's father and his curiosity about her mother and siblings. Despite his reservations, he knew that avoiding them completely might not be the best solution. He took a deep breath, steeling himself for whatever awaited him inside.She is following me to go and meet my parents when I don't have to. I should show her a little respect by going in to meet her family instead of just standing outside on the hood of my car while waiting for her to come out like a debt collector." He thought to himself."Don't overthink it, boss, just go after her." He heard Thomas, who was looking at him intently, say,."Yeah, I probably sh

Ashley has never felt so humbled before in her life. This was not the first time and might not be the last time that one of her siblings would be mean to her, but she didn't like the fact that Liam had to witness that."He probably thinks that I am a looser now," she thought to herself as Thomas drove them to the airport. She couldn't help but want to get out of the suffocating air inside the car.She was scared that Liam would ask questions because she honestly didn't have answers for him.Was she supposed to tell him? "Hey, you know how my family painted themselves to be a close-knit family that loves each other in the media? Well, it is fake. My father is a conniving bastard, my mother is a cold woman who ignored me, and my siblings hate me because even though I was adopted, I was the eldest, and I could end up stealing their birthright."She couldn't exactly offload all those to Liam because she was still hurt that he started ignoring her after the progress she felt like they had

Liam has always been the workaholic type. He doesn't like not doing anything productive. This was the first time, however, that he wouldn't work while he was on a plane.He didn't hate talking to Ashley instead of working, though. He surprisingly enjoyed it more. Liam couldn't help but notice the way she looks while she smiles.The way her lips curl up and her eyes squeeze in a cute way. She is also not the quiet-laughing type. She laughs out loud instead. Not in a disgusting way, of course, but in a way that pulls his heartstrings.As they continued their conversation, Liam found himself captivated by Ashley's infectious laughter and vibrant personality. He realized that he had never met someone who could make him forget about work so effortlessly.There is a part of him that is still telling him to be guarded against her, but deep down, he doesn't want to. He knows that he has to be careful, though."Ladies and gentlemen, please fasten your seat belt as we are about to land." He hea

"Liam!!! Christina screamed as she badged into the room and launched herself at Liam."Hello, little Tina, How have you been?" Liam asked his little girl, looking at her with warm eyes. You could easily tell that he adores her."I've been good, and guess what? I joined the cheer team. The girls on the team are gross and only try to be my friends, so they could get close to Cole though."She said she was frustrated."Anyways, I hope you brought me something.""Come on, Tina, let's not be rude and greet the guest." Dilly headlights. walking towards Ashley, who looked like a deer caught in headlights."Hello Ashley, it's been how many years?" Dilly asked with a warm smile on her face."Hello Dilly, I have been good. What about you?" Ashley responded."Oh, come on, what's with the boring conversation?" Tina said with a smirk on her face and then turned towards Ashley."Hello, I am the best Abbot sibling, and it's nice meeting you." She exclaimed, pulling Ashley into a hug that was almost im

Liam grew up getting attention from people for different reasons. Well, mostly good reasons, because there were times he got in trouble and got attention for doing something bad. He is not dumb; he knows how girls react to him. It is not pride; this was just how it has always been for him. Girls wanted to date him, and boys wanted to be like him. It gets annoying, though, because almost every girl he has met wants something from him. As much as he likes his ego rubbed, he doesn’t particularly like girls walking up to him and telling him they will climb him like a tree. Almost every girl he had been with had a motive, either for money, fame, or sex. He always wonders if they thought that was all he could offer. Ashley was the only person who was not like that with him. Apart from the fact that she could be the one behind the scandal, of course, Liam has decided to stop thinking about the scandal, how it came to be, and holding it over Ashley’s head. There was no proof she did it, a
