The Billionaire’s Collateral Husband Chapter 5“WHAT if I will lose my job? What would my family and friends say about me?” Paul Victoria talks with himself in front of the vague mirror. His hand wipes it slate clean to reflect his image.He could see in his eyes the anxiety of what Davon and Connor bring to him. Also, how about his family, who is relying on him? Paul wanted to scratch the mirror, but his fingernails are slipping away from the slippery texture.The water from the bucket is overflowing without him noticing its flow. The pounding of his heart is the only one making him deaf from his surroundings. “I cannot go back to Connor… I don’t want to see the face of that Lunatic!” with a faint smash from the mirror, and Paul continues his bath.He needs to find a way how to escape his trap. However, it’s the same
The Billionaire’s Collateral Husband Chapter 6A MONTH had passed when Dylan is scrolling on the screen of his phone. “I heard your mother gave birth to your half-brother,” Connor intriguingly asked him.“Yeah, I will go today at the hospital. It’s in Manila,” he responded with a bit of nervousness and a slight hint of excitement. His friend Paul Victoria peeps at the phone to see his adorable newborn brother.“Just like you,” he complimented as a broad smile is created on the face of Dylan. “I want to go with you. Unfortunately, Sir Luke is not here to accompany you for today,” Paul said in a serene manner as they both go to the parking lot.The red Ferrari of Lord Luke that was his gift to his little wife is shinier than the future of Paul inside the bound contract of his lunatic boss. Finally,
The Billionaire's Collateral Husband Chapter 7PAUL'S pupils are dilating from his words. Hand are turning into a fist as the veins are pumping blood faster—making the back of his earshot. His lunatic boss gives a cold sneer from the corner of the window.Connor doesn't even care about the holding of his salary. He doesn't have a gist where would his prime secretary pay it for. "Sir… please, I need to money for the hospital bills—""I don't care," he cuts his words without any hesitations and guilt inside of his chest. That line keeps on rolling inside his head repeatedly! Paul wants to cry, beg and kneel in front of him because there is no audience watching for his swallowed pride."Sir, please! My nephew is in the hospital. I need the money," he keeps on telling the facts, which Connor doesn't want to accept. "I will pay for the bills," the CEO muttered whil
The Billionaire’s Collateral Husband Chapter 8THE DAYS of Paul keeps on stressing the shit out of him. His initiative to take a glance at his back kicks in after he entered the V building. He sees Dylan with baby Cali walking past the reception area.The baby is now going to be a two years old baby this year.“Dada!” his words are still babbling when escaping from his mouth. However, Cali is now getting used to walking by himself by balancing his feet and hand at the same time. Not perfect, but manageable. His practice always makes progress.“Cali! You are now good at walking!” Paul takes him from the ground, and he is clapping his hands. “Say… Uncle,” Paul keeps on teaching the child—but he pointed out from a distance.He then watches who is the one catching his attention. Paul’s body fre
The Billionaire’s Collateral Husband Chapter 9“WHY the CEO doesn’t go with you, Paul?” Sister Joy asked the secretary. Paul remained wordless until he gave a box of food for the kids inside the orphanage.“Sir Connor is busy this day. I apologize for his absence, by the way, let the other members of the orphanage bring it inside.” Paul brings down another box of refreshment. It was a total of three boxes for this week.He is rest assured, Mr Mateo Vozinelik is delightful to witness him taking care of his left treasures. Sister Joy pats his back, but a familiar voice shouted from a safe distance beneath the grotto.“Sir!” It’s the voice of Roy and running towards him. Paul is stunned by his warm hug. “I miss you! Where is sir Connor?” he asks in a sleek way.The edge of Pau
The Billionaire’s Collateral Husband Chapter 10PAUL VICTORIA nearly drops his phone when listening to the nurse who is calling him via the line.“I-I will come where is the clinic?” he inquired.“Near the BCG sir,” said by the nurse.The secretary is now having his peaceful meal for this night, but suddenly a gloomy news destroys his enjoyment. Paul tsked out of his annoyance and then brushed his teeth.With only his shorts and T-shirt, he manages to drive fast by his motorcycle. Paul is like the king of the highway as he is going through even the smallest space between vehicles.BGC is not far from his location and he manages to arrived few minutes after the call. Paul is anxious about this place.The small clinic where the nurse said is right in front of his quivering body. His knees so soft to walk. Paul is ambivalent tonight.

The Billionaire’s Collateral Husband Chapter 11“DOES it hurt when I pressed it?” Doctor Cameo asked Connor when he is constantly checking his injured foot.“A-A little bit,” Connor keeps on stuttering when the pain is present.“You still have a twisted ankle. Hold on for some weeks, it’s only about three days for now,” Cameo said with all of his empathy for the CEO. Paul comes back from the kitchen to serve both of their breakfast.“I still don’t take a bath for three days… This is so embarrassing!” Connor keeps on nagging at him. However, the doctor finds a brilliant idea for his annoyance. “Paul can still wash you but not your injured part. Lay it down on a chair, milord.” He keeps on eating his breakfast—but Paul is bothered by his foolish idea. Cameo gave him medicines before he left the room. His secretary handled the plates to the maid as he closed the door.Paul is silent when looking at him. Neither Connor wants to state his request first.
The Billionaire’s Collateral Husband Chapter 12“DOES it hurt?” Doctor Cameo asked for the last time because it’s already three weeks and the CEO could walk properly now. Paul’s stay here at the mansion with his lunatic boss is like hundred of years.“Uhm… it’s now painless,” Connor responded with all of his honesty because he is healthy—his body healed more than their personal Doctor anticipated. Someone knocked on the door as it opens Mrs Bridget entered the room.“How are you now, son? You can resume your work tomorrow by Cameo’s advise,” she uttered and then sat on the edge of the bed. She sees Paul lifeless and so stressed about his boss.His eyes are puffy as if he loses his sleep in these three weeks of extended service. Connor didn’t want him to sleep in order to watch him while sleeping.“Are you alright, Paul?” Mrs Bridget asked
