Bound To The Ruthless Billionaire What are you going to do?
“What's wrong, Jewel?” I was too lost in thoughts about the message I received, that I didn't hear his approach until he touched me, startling me from my thoughts. I squinted. “What's wrong?” He asked again. This time, his voice sounded gentler. He looked like he was afraid of startling me once more. I didn't say a word as I passed my mobile to him, with shaking hands. I couldn't even say a word. Nothing came out of my mouth as my heart hammered in my chest. All the blood rushed to my ears, and I can only hear the churning in them. My body shook, convulsing from the shock of the news. I felt like I wasn't the one in my body. Hell, I couldn't even control my body. My breathing got faster, and my eyes seemed to close on their own. “Jewel!”Miguel called me, but I was too gone to reply. The message I got, seemed to tug deep into my memory, past the wall that was erected to keep my thoughts in. Memories assaulted me. I saw scenes I have long forgotten. Scenes I never knew I witn
Bound To The Ruthless Billionaire The new lecturer is hot
It has been a week since I received that damned message. Miguel, who has gotten tired of asking about my plans, decided to let me do things at my pace —not that I intend to do anything, for now. “You seem so lost in thoughts.” Pearl plopped down on the chair next to mine. “Good Morning!” She shrieked so loud that I had to cover my ears with my hands and shoot glares at her. Her outbursts caused the few students in the class to cast glares at us before they resumed what they were doing. “What's so good about the morning if you scream that loud?” I narrowed my eyes at her, a moment from hitting her forehead on the damned desk we got for our philosophy class. She rolled her eyes at me as she tucked a stray hair behind her right ear, with a grin on her face and a lot of sparkle in her eyes. She's putting on a black gown, which is longer than all the clothes she has ever worn since classes started. Aside from the ball gowns she wore to the masquerade ball, I've never seen her wear de
Bound To The Ruthless Billionaire He winked at me?
We weren't the only ones who noticed the new professor. The entire class was so quiet, it was almost suspicious. Ordinarily, there are supposed to be snickers thrown around or words whispered to friends. But, there was nothing. Everything was so quiet that it seemed.... peculiar. Well, I know the cause of that. The new philosophy lecturer with those killer eyes and body like his was the cause of it. “Damn!” A girl exclaimed behind us. I didn't need to turn to know she was referring to the hot piece of meat. If only she got to see my husband, I believe her jaws might fall to the ground just at the sight of his majestic body. “Good Morning, class.”His voice sounded like it was laced with honey. It reverberated on the walls of the class, leaving shivers in its wake. “Good Jesus.” P sighed, “I think this will be the only class I won't miss for the entire year.”“Good Morning,” he greeted once more when he didn't get the right response he was hoping for.Like the first greeting, the
Bound To The Ruthless Billionaire Farewell?
“Why did you stop?” P turned to face me, with her brows raised, and mouth pursed. “No… Nothing.” I winked at her, “let's go. We have other classes to attend before the day runs by.” I urged her out of the classroom before she could say something else. We parted in front of her next class — anatomy, while I left her there for my next class, which is Introduction to AI. We have been learning all about Artificial Intelligence for weeks, but we are yet to get deeper into the topic. After classes, I met with P in her classroom. “I will be right out!” She waved at me the moment her eyes landed on me. She was all smiles as she hastened to arrange her books. I stood to the side, to let the other students pass. The squishing sounds of their shoes on the tiles, the opening of lockers and the increased chatters provided good background noises.“Girl, I'm so going back to get a glimpse of Mr Matt. Are you coming with?” She asked the moment she closed the distance between us. “My classes wen
Bound To The Ruthless Billionaire Soon, he will be mine
“Jewel!”I almost jumped out of my skin when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I immediately turned, to see P. She stood next to me, with a concerned expression on her face, and a forced smile. “Are you okay, Butterfly?” She squinted. Her eyes were awash with concern. It twitched with an urge to know what was wrong with me, but she didn't pry further. “Yeah,” I nodded, “I'm good.”But I'm not. Though I know what I'm supposed to do, I'm still trying to know how to approach things, to get the answers I need. I can't possibly walk up to my stepmother, and demand for her to tell me if she was the one who killed my mother. Who in their right senses will ever confess to that? I don't think it will be that easy.“Well…" She trailed off, with a suspicious glare directed solely at me. “It's time to leave. The other girls have long left.” She motioned towards the place which was brimming with fan girls not too long ago. Sure enough, there were no girls there any more. The hall was empty, devoid
Bound To The Ruthless Billionaire Your father is dead
Star drove me to the hospital my stepmother sent an address for. I frantically clasped my hands as I prayed for my father's safety. I'm aware that we don't have the best relationship, but that doesn't mean that I'm ready to lose him.“Your father will be okay, Jewel.” Star sent a comforting look my way. “You don't have to be nervous.”“I can't help it, Star. The way she sounded over the phone made it seem like he was dead already. I don't know what to do if something happens to him, Star. He's the only family I have. I can't —” “Listen to me, Jewel. Your father just had a stroke and was taken to the hospital. Nothing is going to happen to him. You've got to stop your train of thought.” She glanced at me before she turned her focus on the road. Her tight grip on the steering wheel is the only evidence of what she's truly feeling deep within her. I sat still in the passenger's seat and joined my hands together. I nervously picked my fingers, to keep my mind off the thoughts of my fat
Bound To The Ruthless Billionaire I will be there for you
I don't know what to feel. One moment, I had this sudden urge to rip everyone and everything to shreds, and in another, I had this urge to collapse on the floor and weep to my heart's content. I slowly closed the door behind me, and leaned on the door, with my eyes closed. My body shook as insistent tears slipped down my eyes. I felt like my heart was about to be ripped and torn to shreds. Why? This was the only question that occupied my mind at the thought that I'd lost a father. I've lost the only biological family I had left. Right now, I'm alone in this world. Tears slid down my eyes, but I didn't make a move to wipe them off. I let them slide down, to pool around my legs. The stares from the patients around didn't faze me. I needed to cry my heart out at the injustice of this world. I just learned that my mother might have been poisoned by a woman she once considered a best friend, so she could get married to my father. And now, more bad news is being dumped on my head. Can
Bound To The Ruthless Billionaire What does he want?
My father's funeral was placed on the last day of the month because of my stepmother's 'busy schedule' The way she worded it made me roll my eyes at how easily she was trying to lie. She was only trying to be sophisticated. “I've missed you!” P whined. “God, the school wasn't the same without you. Nothing was interesting to me any more. But now that you are back, I feel like I can fly to the highest mountain!” I rolled my eyes at her. Since she saw me this morning, she has been acting clingy by telling me just how much she missed me. God, I think my eardrums are about to explode. Having a friend like P can make you insane.“How is your lecturer? Still checking him out?” I raised a brow at her. My mouth twitched to a side, but I refused to smile. I don't need her to descend on my case when she figures out that I'm making fun of her. “Oh, my God!” She shrieked. “He's getting hotter by the day. I bet, he always gets cooked in a hot cauldron of handsomeness and sophistication before
