A Trillionaire in University 29. The senator's wayward son
Chapter twenty nine: The senator's wayward son.That same week, I had another dinner with Senator Sanders. This time, he chose a cozy little Italian restaurant tucked away in a quiet corner of the city. He said he wanted to avoid the public eye because reporters had been following him everywhere.He sent a car to pick me up at my house and drop me at the location. I found myself at a dark alley and was so confused. I glanced around nervously, wondering if I had somehow ended up in the wrong place. "Oh my gosh, I don't wanna die," I thought, already freaking out. As I took hesitant steps forward, the sound of my heels echoed off the cobblestone pavement. I kept adjusting my black minidress. I clutched my purse tightly, half expecting a masked figure to leap out from the shadows at any moment.Just as panic threatened to consume me entirely, I spotted a faint glow emanating from the end of the alley. There was a discreet sign tucked away in a corner, barely visible in the dim light. It

Chapter thirty: Insufferable + Predictable As I carried Scott up and rested his right arm on my shoulders, he opened his eyes a little. He muttered something I could not quite understand. Despite his disheveled state, there was a vulnerability about him that tugged at my heartstrings. Senator and I gently placed him on the couch in the living room."I'm gonna go make some hangover medicine," Senator said to me as he went back to the kitchen.I was left alone with Scott. I glanced at him; his hair was ruffled and his shirt was inside out. It was strange seeing him like this, so troubled and helpless."You know, you're not making things easy for your dad," I muttered under my breath, more to myself than to Scott. But to my surprise, he let out a soft groan, his eyes fluttering open slightly."Hey there, sleepyhead," I said. "You had quite a night, huh?"Scott grunted in response, rubbing his temples with his fingers. I imagined his head was banging and his eyes were blurry. "Jessica? I
A Trillionaire in University 31. Damage control!
Chapter thirty one: Damage controlAs I walked out of the mansion through the front door, I was met by a barricade of reporters and newscasters. As cameras were clicked, flashlights blinked and were almost blinding to my eyes. Microphones were being shoved at my lips. A hurricane of questions hit my ears all at once. The interviewers tried to force their way through the entrance, shoving and pushing against my skin. "Miss Jessica Raye Kardashian, can you tell us about your relationship with Senator Sanders?""Are you getting married to his son?""Are you planning to run for office yourself?""Are you in a romantic relationship with the senator?"I struggled to find my voice among the throng of crowd. I ducked into the car and sank into the plush seat, eager to escape the chaos outside. As soon as I arrived home and settled onto my comfy couch, my phone began to buzz incessantly with text messages. "I'm heading over to your place right now," Rachel's message flashed across the screen.
A Trillionaire in University 32. A very complicated woman.
Chapter thirty two: A very complicated woman.I had two people I trusted in the entire world, Rachel and my mother. If my world ever came crashing down, I knew they would stick with me through the storm and the rain. Rachel had been my best friend for two years but it already felt like we had known each other our entire lives. I valued their opinions a lot. Even without asking, I knew my mom would be completely against an arranged marriage. She loved my father; she still does. She always wanted me to marry for love too – a marriage founded on love, not convenience or obligation.And Rachel? Oh, she absolutely hated Scott too. "I don't know what to do, Rach," I confessed.Rachel shook her head, her expression mirroring my own uncertainty. "This is a mess, Jess. Marrying Scott Sanders is not exactly a dream scenario.""I know, right? But it seems like the only way to salvage my reputation and save BrainBoost from sinking.""I get it, but are you really willing to tie yourself to that g
A Trillionaire in University 33. Marry me?
Chapter thirty three: Marry me?My voice echoed in the room. Butch paused, his hand freezing mid-air with the buzzing needle. The smell of the alcohol got stronger and the buzzing sound of the tattoo machine got louder as I waited for his reply.He looked at me incredulously and blinked. "What? Is this some kind of joke?" he questioned, laughing."Let's talk in private," I said, realizing that a lot of eyes had turned to us."Alright. But you have five minutes," he replied as he stood up, wore his clothes and followed me outside.The night air was cool and windy. As the cold air wrapped around me, a gentle breeze played with my hair, sending shivers down my spine. I hugged myself tightly, rubbing my arms in a futile attempt to ward off the chill that crept beneath my skin."Are you cold?" He asked without any emotion in his eyes."Yeah, it's a bit chilly, but I'll manage,"I shrugged.He arched an eyebrow, his expression unreadable. "Why wear a sleeveless dress in weather like this?"
A Trillionaire in University 34. Mama Bear
Chapter thirty four: Mama BearA week later, preparation for the wedding was in full swing. Nobody warned me about how hard it was to plan a wedding, especially when it was a fake one. I found myself buried under a mountain of wedding magazines and endless to-do lists, all while trying to maintain the facade of a happily engaged bride-to-be.As I juggled appointments with vendors and tried to keep track of seating arrangements, I couldn't help but wonder if it was all worth it. In spite of everything, it wasn't a real wedding, but the effort and stress were all too real. Yet, amidst the chaos, there was a small part of me that couldn't deny the excitement of it all, even if it was just for show."This is the formal contract for our marital agreement," I said to Scott handing him a 30 pages document. We found ourselves at my favorite tea shop for another one of our "meetings." At least, it wasn't a scary tattoo studio this time. Scott lounged across the table from me, legs crossed and

Chapter thirty five:🅰️ WEEK T🅾️ THE WEDDING."Jessica! Your wedding dress!!" Rachel exclaimed beside me, her voice tinged with panic."Oh, shoot! With everything else going on, we completely forgot to buy a dress," I cursed, realizing our oversight."Well, we still have a little time.""Okay. Just order something online," I replied absentmindedly, my attention already drifting back to the papers scattered across the table. "What the heck? Ordering a wedding dress online is like inviting a curse to follow you around forever," Rachel exclaimed, feigning shock and horror.I couldn't help but burst into laughter at her dramatic declaration. "Oh no, not the dreaded online shopping curse! We can't risk it," I replied, joining in on the playful theatrics.Rachel gasped dramatically, clutching her chest as if warding off an impending curse. "I'm not kidding. The wedding curse of bad luck is very real.""What bad luck is worse than getting married to Scott Sanders?" I asked but I didn't e

Chapter thirty six: No pictures, please!Moments later, the manager hurriedly rushed over, sensing that a blushing bride to be was about to lose her temper. "What's going on here?" The manager's question was directed at the rude sales rep, who stood with a defiant posture."I was just about to call security to deal with another window shopper," she retorted as she glanced in my direction."A what? Are you out of your mind? This is tech CEO, Jessica Raye," exclaimed the manager. "Sir, I... I... tho... thought.." the sales rep stammered. It was satisfying to see the sales rep's arrogance deflate like a popped balloon"You thought what?! Did you think it was right to judge a person you don't know based on their appearance? Or did you think you could embarrass people and treat them with disrespect just because of their status in the society?"The words tumbled out of me. I couldn't believe someone could be so freaking annoying, and I wasn't about to let her off the hook without a piece
