All Chapters of My Billion Dollar Marriage Proposal: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Corporate Suspicions Maria's POV “Maria, my girl, I thought I was badass with men but your level of badass needs to be studied. The birthday series you did for Sebastian, man, you had a grown man excited and blushing like a high schooler.” Helena cooed on the call. We had to work after Sebastian’s party so none of us had really gotten the time to sit down and talk about it. Helena and I had some free time this morning so she called to talk about Sebastian’s reaction and mannerisms towards me during the party. “Oh my! Helena!” I replied and then laughed at her choice of words. “Yeahh, he couldn’t help himself during his birthday party—that he kissed you in front of those men and women. You are lucky that it was a private party and none of that kissing scene made it to the media. The buzz would have deafened us all.” “Tell me about it.” I agreed and laughed, thinking about Sebastian’s party. During and even after the party, he couldn’t take his hands off me, even though

A Winchester Face-Off Helena's POV The vacation I had with Maria and Nathan did its number on me because I came back feeling like nothing was impossible for me, and I could conquer anything and anyone. I wasn't exaggerating when I said that Keith's father was after me. The first time I encountered the stern looking man was in a boardroom meeting between his firm and mine. He had given the wrong estimate and everyone knew that but no one had the balls to tell him that his estimate was wrong. After a while I told him and he indirectly asked how dare I correct him. He never liked me since that day. “You’ve been staring into space, Lena. You look miserable.” Maria commented behind me with an amused smile on her face. I sighed then turned to face her. “You have no idea how crazy my day will be. My team has a face off with Keith's father's team.” Maria scrunched her brows and looked at me thoughtfully as she adjusted the gold buttons on her corporate gown. “No offence but

Corporate Chaos Maria’s POV It was three weeks since I found out that some operations were being carried out in my company without my consent, and since that time I have been moving from one meeting to another demanding explanations and rectifications but then it seemed to get worse. “What is going on? What the hell is going on right under my nose?” I asked myself as I stared at the document in front of me. I didn’t bother to call any of my executives or my personal assistant because it seemed as if they were also seemingly handicapped to do anything about the actions of the stakeholders. Reading through the document again, I sighed and pulled out my phone, then called Helena. “Hey baby, what’s going on with you?” Helena asked me immediately after she answered the call. I could hear the curiosity in her voice and understood why. We left our home together a few hours ago. “What’s your plan for lunch? Are you free? Can we have lunch together?” “Yeah, yeah, that’s fine. A

The White Knight Maria’s POV The investigation on the stakeholders was becoming almost frustrating because it seemed as if they were doing something shady but covering their tracks real good. Their operations seemed as if it was harmless and for the good of the company but I had strong unease about it because I knew that there was an underlying motive that was shady and dark. Helena kept insisting that we tell Sebastian or include the help of a professional but I didn't want the stakeholders to find out that I was having them checked out, I wanted to do things as quietly as possible and also, I didn't want Sebastian to know that he was right with his warning about public investors. “Come in.” I breathed out after I clicked on the open button of my door but my personal assistant lingered at the door. I wondered why she was still around. Most people in the company had closed and gone home. “I hope I am not interrupting your work flow, ma'am.” I smiled when she said that bec

Saving Maria Maria’s POV “I received your text last night. How did you know that I was the one in need of a white knight?” I asked her with an emotionless tone. I had to thread carefully because I had made too many moves where my company was concerned that had led to a backlash. “You are not famous, Maria; but you are also not a nobody. After our last discussion, I did my own findings about you and realized that you were the one having corporate troubles.” “Your message indicated that you would be my white knight but I could pay back in my time and terms. Why? We’ve only just met so why do you want to help me?” She sighed deeply as if remembering something that happened previously, then she said. “Let’s just say that I encountered something similar in the hands of my husband. If you don’t act fast and smart, everything you own will be taken away from you, mishandled by people who know nothing about your vision, and then tossed back to you in shattered pieces with nothing lef
