Exposing Mister Billionaire Chapter 27: His Girlfriend
[katalina]Monday came.Three days passed about my commotion with Hunter. I don’t know how I should feel about it.One thing is for sure.My conscience is devouring me alive.I haven’t been halfway through my mission. But my heart is overpowering my brain. And it tells me to stop this madness. And runaway.Not because I’ll die from shame— which I will feel eventually— but because, catching feelings for Hunter was never part of the plan.The car honk outside. Ian is here. While I was heading out of my apartment, my phone rang.My editor’s name appeared on my phone screen. I ended the call.Ian was outside the car, waiting for me. He waved his hand. And I responded the same. My mouth opened and was about to greet him good morning, but my phone rang again.Unconsciously, due to the raging irk radiating from my inside, I answered the call, “What!?” my voice sounding pissed.“W-Woah. You still mad at me?”Pulling the phone away from my ear, it was then I know that Hunter was calling me and
Exposing Mister Billionaire Chapter 28: Meeting Lucille
I walked one by one and stopped at the door. They couldn't see me from here because they had their backs turned and were happily talking. I leaned my head against the doorpost, looking at Hunter's parents. We are at this villa. And Hunter offered that I will cook food for us all. Not to mention that we came here so damn early. I’m still sleepy and slightly pissed that Hunter offered my service without asking for my permission. I mean, the stakes of getting roasted behind my back because my food doesn’t taste good is critical! But it made me wonder also. When will I see my relatives or my birth parents? After all these years I didn't harbor too much anger towards them. At first, yes. But eventually, I learned to forgive them. I don't know the back story of why they sent me to the orphanage. The loud laughter and giggles of Hunter and his uncle and aunt, also made me smile while looking at them. It's nice to have a complete family or know some of your relatives. At that time, even
Exposing Mister Billionaire Chapter 29: Tiresome
[katalina] I kept my head down while Hunter and I ate brunch with his relatives. I couldn't look up again. Because the last time I did it, I met his aunt's arched eyebrows. The smell of my cooked beef stew wafted through the air. Before we came here, Hunter bought a universal ingredients for any dish that we can cook. Even if I wanted to eat a lot, I was ashamed. I mean, Hunter's aunt was staring at me. Anyone in my position would prefer to lock themselves in the room rather than feel her sharp eyes. I just quietly eat little by little. I made three dishes. It's just a simple dish but it's delicious, like me — just kidding. Chicken cordon bleu, beef stew, and fish fillet. I don't know what dish Hunter's relatives like. So I just prepared the easy to cook. Felix seems to like it because I keep hearing compliments from him as well as from Hunter. Don't ask if I heard a compliment from his aunt. As I chewed the food in my mouth and my brain floated into nothingness, I was surprised w
Exposing Mister Billionaire Chapter 30: Future Daughter In-Law
[katalina]It was late when I woke up. Exactly six o'clock. I didn't even get up from lying in bed. I yawned and looked at my surroundings. The lamp on the table placed on the right side of the room is already lit.When I glanced behind me, the window was left open. With the force of the wind outside it blows the curtain and hangs freely with every gust of wind. I got up from bed and closed the window.I put on the slippers. That's when I realized that my knee had regained full strength.I took a deep breath and left the room. I closed the door softly and looked around the house. Countless candles were lit to light up the house. There are only five lamps here so it has limited space.One of the rooms that Hunter and I used, the upstairs bedroom, the kitchen, the dining room and the living room. As the whole house was not very bright, I narrowed my eyes at the man with his back to me. He was sitting on an empty chair at the dining table while sipping coffee.His shirt was almost torn b
Exposing Mister Billionaire Chapter 31: Surprise!
[katalina]"What did you do while I wasn't here, Amanda?" Hunter asked me when we entered our room. We finished dinner and put away our food. I threw myself on the bed and lay down on my back.I am very tired. Don't know why. I didn't do anything heavy tonight."Your dad and I talked,""You mean, our dad . You are their future daughter-in-law. We will become a family, Amanda," I turned to Hunter.We both chuckle. He made it clear that we won’t ever speak that we are acting.His relatives tend to eavesdrop. Either if we talk about sex or what, it wasn’t real at all. And yes, no offense taken.He took off his clothes and just threw them on the floor. I was about to scream but I just understood. It also takes a few hours to travel to the city and then come back here. It must be really tiring.Hunter is not a messy man. Just now really. You can see in his bright eyes how tired he is. Next, he removed the belt he was wearing and pulled down the pants he was wearing. He threw it on the floo
Exposing Mister Billionaire Chapter 32: All An Act
[katalina]My eyes were spinning while we were going home. It was night when we left the lake. I would have liked to extend the time and make it a whole day with Mam Lucille. We had a few bottles of wine and just laughed in the river. We didn't realize that it was already dark."It was just ours earlier, right?" mam Lucille said drunkenly as she stood next to me. Of the two of us, he was the one who got drunk more. I'm dizzy and nauseous but I'm still coping. I can see from here the house where we are staying."Yes, mam," I answered. He frowned at me and gently hit my arm. "What mhm? Huh? I am not your teacher. You call me mom," he drunkenly ordered. I nodded weakly. "Yes, mom," I corrected what I said."Goods," she gave a thumbs up. We staggered towards home. I thought it was the worst to go with her but I was wrong. The best night of my life yet. As we approached the house. The two men appeared in front of us, very panicked."Dad, we should go find them. Maybe what happened to them?
Exposing Mister Billionaire Chapter 32: Nightmare From The Past
[katalina]Hunter and I even extended a Sunday at his relatives' villa. Honestly, deep down I just want to live here. All my dreams were gone and changed in a good way. If so, I want to be like this and like that. But when we extended the stay, I felt like I just wanted to be a housewife and take care of Hunter —well, yeah. This whole acting thing is driving me nuts.Within that one week, Hunter and I got to know each other better. And today is our last day at his parents' house. Because tomorrow, we are back to reality that we have to explain to the dean of our school— just kidding, the office because there is a lot of paperwork!"Amanda, watch me. I will chop wood. What do you want, shirtless or fully naked?” he asked. I laughed and leaned against the door outside with my arms folded. "Nevermind. Just put on some clothes because you might get bitten by mosquitoes or catch a cold. I will wash our clothes. Too bad it's hot outside,""Well, with the warmth I was about to show you, you'

[katalina]I’m with Hunter now. We’re taking the route back home. My body is aching like I’ve been hazed by a fraternity.On our way home, Hunter was so serious on the road. He won’t believe me when I confessed that Bernard was just a fictional character in the book I was reading before.He didn’t know about my past. Nor he deserves to know.Of course, prior to I became a researcher and writer in one, reading pocket novels are my pastime. It helps me to escape the cruel world.Call me a hopeless romantic, but it’s better to read it than to see it in a movie. Sometimes, the actors tend to overact the scene. Which is considerably a cringe moment. Reasons why I hate watching romantic shows.“Hunter,” it was the nth time that I called his name.But the billionaire was determined to ignore me as if my existence were air.The car stopped as the traffic light blinks red. He sighed.“Look, the past week was bizarre for me in a good way,” I said. He looked at me. Still with no emotions at all.
