All Chapters of THE BILLIONAIRE'S RUNAWAY MISTRESS: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Out of over two hundred ladies who replied to the ad, Isabel was among the lucky fifty who were selected for the interview.She was thrilled about the news, and begged her manager for an off day, so she could attend the interview.After much begging, the man gave her the permit she needed, to not show up at work on that day.On that day, Isabel dressed her very best, wearing one of Jasmine's hand-me-down tops, and a wide-legged denim she'd purchased for herself about a year ago.Her attire didn't appear suitable for the interview, but the dress she could've worn was destroyed by Jasmine after she borrowed it weeks ago and did not return it until two days ago.The strain on the off-white dress, which she didn't know if it was from coffee or makeup, was impossible to wash off, despite all the cleaning agents she used on it.She had to dump it and wear something else, and although it didn't appear professional, she had no choice.Before Isabel left home that morning, she prepared breakf

Everything happened so quickly for Isabel, that she lost track of her own life. Immediately after she signed the contract with the agency, she was moved to a new apartment, Unlike how she had expected the apartment to be a penthouse in the city, it was a multimillionaire mansion with an ocean view and it was unlike anything Isabel had ever seen.Whoever this anonymous employer of hers was, she needed no soothsayer to tell her he must be drowning in wealth. Everything she needed, from food and clothes to other necessities, was in abundance. She didn't have to do anything for herself, because two maids were designated to her care. There was a chef, a few cleaners, and bodyguards. The security was very tight, which means there was no unsolicited going out and coming in.The house manager, Madam Magdalene, an older woman in her late forties was there if she needed anything.Isabel was awestruck, yet cautious, because everything seemed too good to be true for her.There were certa

EIGHT YEARS LATER, Isabel stepped out of the cab, dragging her bag with her. She close the door, thanked the cab driver, before sauntering towards her house. She unlocked the door and went inside the house, heaving a loud sigh of relief. "Home, sweet home." She took off her coat and shoes, keeping them at their designated places, and was about going further into the house, when she recalled she hasn't gone to pick her eight-years-old son, Reynolds, from her neighbor's. "Shit!" She cussed frustrated, returning to the shoe rack to wear her shoes. Before she left two days ago, she had begged her neighbor, Austin, to help her babysit her son, for the time she will be gone. It was the first time she was leaving her son to someone else's care for more than twenty-four hours, and she was skeptical about it, yet did not have any other choice. She didn't want him to skip school, so she begged Austin to help her watch over him. Despite knowing he was safe with Austin, it didn't ease her

Two days later, Isabel was in the cafe going over the list of things they've run out of stock of in the cafe, when Padma, one of her employers walked up to her with a cream colored envelope."Chauncey from the mayor's office brought this in for you while you were away."Isabel turned to the seventeen-year-old teenager, gesturing her to keep the envelope on the counter."Padma," she called the girl's attention just as she was about to leave, and she asked her,"Have the repairman fixed the faulty expresso machine?""Not yet. Ginny called him while you were out of town, but he gave some excuse about his son being at the hospital.""So, the machine is still not functional.""Yes."Isabel let out a frustrated sigh,"Is there anyone else who can fix it for us? I mean, we can't be out of expresso for our customers.""I can help you if you want." A deep voice cut through their conversation, and both Padma and Isabel turned to the owner.It was Austin, her neighbor.Isabel's stomach churned th

Sebastan's flight landed at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, at exactly five thirty-seven p.m the day before, and the car which was supposed to take him to the hotel, was already waiting for them outside the departure gates.When they arrived at the hotel, Zachary checked-in, while one of the bellhops took their suitcase to his suite.They arrived at his suite minutes later, and he went to freshen up first.It was a five hours flight and he was exhausted. He would've felt better if he had flown in his private jet, instead of flying first class in a commercial flight.But then, he needed the jet to be in good shape for his flight to Taiwan, which was in a few weeks.After he'd freshened up, he called home to speak to the boys, but according to their nanny, Brittany, they were with their fencing instructor, Mr. Armagilio.He ended the call, promising to call back later, but got too busy with work he didn't call back until after dinnertime.He called Fabian after speaking to his
