HIRED AS A BILLIONAIRE'S WIFE Chapter 46
THALIAConfusion was all over my face as I looked around and my eyes stopped at the person next to me. His smirk shows he's enjoying acting like a handsome kidnapper.“Frederick!” “Did I scare you?” He cracks up as he taps my shoulder simultaneously to annoy me.“Obviously!” I rolled my eyes and punched his stomach causing him to wince in pain but I know it didn't affect him a bit. “Take me back there.” I hissed.He stopped and glanced at me, looking so puzzled. “Did you forget?”My phone suddenly buzzes. “About what?” I irritatedly took out my phone and saw Damon was calling me.Damn it.I was about to send him a text while cautiously glancing at Frederick. “It's your Uncle's birthday.”I paused and stopped typing.“Uncle Adam?”“Since you are close to where I was, I insisted on being the sole person to pick you up instead of your brother.”I firmly shut my eyes and changed my message to Damon. Instead, I sent him a message that I couldn't meet him tonight.With a sigh, I turned of

THALIA“M-Mr. Kane, what are you doing here?” My lips were trembling as I slowly approached them with a pierced gaze towards Damon.“I have a business to talk with your father, Thalia.” My brows furrowed at how he called me casually. “I mean, Ms. Carter.”He looked at me with teasing eyes. Is he enjoying this?“You're really something.” Dad got up from his seat. “Then, join me there.”They headed to the other side of the pool. Damon winked at me as he passed by, causing the blood to gush through my cheeks. My gaze followed him and Dad as they mingled with my other relatives. I bet they are going to talk all about business the rest of the night.Mom offered me a seat as my Aunt Alice was giving me a glass of wine. I accepted the glass and chugged down the drink at once while my eyes were fixed on Damon only.Don't you dare slip that tongue of yours, Damon!I felt someone sat beside me and placed his arm around my shoulder. It's my brother.“Did you tell him–”I abruptly glare at him.

THALIA My heart beats furiously as I hear Leander’s voice slowly getting nearer. I covered Damon's mouth, praying that no one would discover us behind the door. Please… not now!I then felt Damon's lips forming a smile. With a glare, I mouthed at him to keep quiet.Why does it feel like this seems exciting to him?I held my breath when the footsteps of my brother stopped near the door or just an inch apart at the door. I can even hear his heavy breathing.Damon suddenly licked my palm causing me to suck in my breath. Amusement was painted in his eyes as if enjoying this moment.Is he crazy?“Come out now.” My eyes widened. He knew where we were. “Uncle Adam and Granduncle Alfred are here.” He said before his footsteps were slowly fading.I leaned my head into Damon's chest as I messed up my hair. If he knew what we were doing in here, he would scold me later for being brazen.I was about to get mad at Damon but I saw his brows furrowed.“What's wrong?” He let out a deep sigh befor

I wanted to end these things before asking Thalia's parents formally.However, it turned out like this.He noticed and saw us. He's indeed smarter than his only son, Leander.“This person you cherished the most…” My ears perked up and gazed at him. “... was this my daughter?”I looked away when he met my eyes, gazing at the dark road from the back seat.I slowly nodded as he was still waiting for my response, which he already knew the answer but still needed confirmation from me.He grabbed my coat and harshly pulled me towards him. His raging eyes were evident that he wanted to kill me right now as he heard what he expected to hear.“Why?!” His jaw tightened as he clenched his fist on my clothes. “Why of all people, Mr. Kane? She's too young for you!”He pushed me harshly, causing me t

Dashing off from the bed and quickly take a shower. As soon I was finished, I dressed in a white plain T-shirt and partnered it down with denim blue pants and black Converse. I apply a powder and lilting to my bare face before I brush my hair and tie it into a neat bun that rested on top of my head.

Because of this event, my workload is packed more than ever and I had been traveling back and forth from the Carter main headquarters to several branches to handle management matters personally without a day's rest. I may love working but I also know how to appreciate rest days once in a while. And right now, spending some time alone in my penthouse with a cup of coffee and a book sounded good.

(Anastasia's POV)I followed Mr. Carter. to a private parking lot where all the VIP vehicles are. He unlocked the trunk of his car and took out a brown leather duffle bag, and pulled out a white cotton towel."Dry yourself first. I don't want you to catch a cold." he handed me the towel before putting the bag back in the trunk. He then unlocked the driver's seat and motioned his hand at me to get on the other side."I'll dry myself first. I don't want to ruin the seats. They look expensive."He rolled the sleeves of his dress shirt to his elbows, "It doesn't matter, you can do it inside. Now, get in before someone sees you."Reminding me of how scary reporters can be, I hurriedly hopped in the passenger seat.He started to move out of the car from the parking lot with ease.

Since she said earlier that they must move out, Josh can't find a vacant apartment near my house or company, so he ended up with a condominium near my company."Turn left..." I followed her instruction on which way is their home. This place looks like a poor residential area, you can see a crowded neighborhood and a loud situation.Somewhere a dog barked, I could hear the risings and fallings of a conversation being held on a porch near the corner, chatting and yapping and playing and shrieking; a car passed on the street, the roaring sound of a motorcycle revving on the other side of the cemetery intrudes like a profanity. How can they live here peacefully?"JUST LEAVE THIS INSTANT!!""S-stop the car, sir." she unbuckles her seatbelt and was about to open the door, adrenaline rushed through me as I stepped on the brake. She jumped off the car and run toward the crowded people. Is she cr
