A Billionaire's Tale Slapped into Reality
Joan entered the kitchen with a tray full of empty plates and cups. Kevin was by the table rolling up dough and checking the oven at intervals.“Are the doughnuts ready yet?” she asked, standing behind him with her hands on her hips.“Almost!” He raised the portion he was cutting through. “Do we really have a full house?” he asked in disbelief.Joan smiled. “Doughnut should be ready by the time I’m back.” She turned to leave.“Yes, ma’am,” he turned and spoke over his shoulder.Joan came out of the kitchen and stopped when she saw Santiago side-leaning on the counter as he looked around the busy café.She inhaled and exhaled, then drew closer.“What would you like to order, sir?”He turned his neck to look at her then faced her completely. There was a little smile on his lips.“Hello,” he waved.“What would you like to order?” She kept her tone formal, masking her irritation.“Look, about last time—”“Sir, we have a full house and barely any hands to help out, so if you’ll be kind eno

“I am not sure yet, but I will inform you when I get something,” Daniel said to the phone. His back was turned to the door. He was staring out his office window, a view he had. “I’ve never given you a reason to be disappointed. Just give me a few days, and I should have new information soon.”The door opened, and Daniel turned around immediately. Santiago approached him with a worried expression and sat in front of him.“I’ll call you back,” he said, then disconnected the call. “I didn’t know you were coming by,” Daniel said, trying to hide the surprise in his voice.If he had come in earlier, he would have heard all he was saying.Santiago didn’t notice the panic in Daniel’s face because he was clouded with his own problems. Sharing with a friend shouldn’t hurt.“Sorry, I didn’t plan it. I was just…” He groaned and buried his face in his palm.Daniel watched the distressed man in front of him and typed on his phone, then placed it on the table, facedown.“What’s got you all worked up

Santiago grabbed his jacket from the armchair and left the room. He opened his phone and scrolled while walking down the stairs. He halted and frowned.“What the hell?” he muttered. ‘What is he up to now?’ he asked himself as he read the end of the document. “Seb better know what the hell he’s doing,” he said and descended the remaining flight of stairs.“Of course, he knows what he’s doing,” came a voice from the tall man standing in front of him.Santiago’s heart skipped a beat because he wasn’t expecting anyone in his apartment this early. Not even his father.Julian rarely made trips to his place except to scold him or con him into doing something against his wish, and he was leaning on the latter.“Good morning, Dad,” he said when he brushed past him to the kitchen.Julian followed him to the kitchen and made himself at home by sitting on one of the island stools.“I am leaving for work soon,”” Santiago said as if trying to get his father to leave. Something about his father’s vi
A Billionaire's Tale The Price of Legacy
Gary entered inside Mr. Newman’s office. His brows were slightly furrowed as he glanced at his watch repeatedly. He didn’t know he’d been tapping the floor with the tip of his shoe till the secretary came in to update him on Mr. Newman’s arrival.He smiled at her in thanks, and she exited the office.Gary looked at his watch again and sighed. He couldn’t get his mind off what the meeting of today was. Mr. Newman informed him about a possible alias who would want to help get his company back.It was great news, but then he thought about what the person might need in return, and that had put him under a lot of mental stress, hence his unease.The door opened, revealing Mr. Newman walking inside with his secretary carrying his briefcase.“Wow, Mr. Anderson, you’re early,” he said, widening his eyes in surprise. “Thank you,” he said to his secretary, who walked out of the office, shutting the door behind her.“I am curious about this alias,” Gary said. “How was he able to acquire the comp

Camila entered the little diner a few blocks away from her workplace. She looked around and smiled when she spotted Miels sitting by the window.“Hi,” she said as she approached the table.“Hey,” he said as he stood up to hug her and help her with her chair. “How are you?”“Tired,” she chuckled. “How are you too? I hope I didn’t pull you off work?”He shook his head. “Oh no. Today is my off day, and I am good, thank you.”They stared at each other for a moment.“Would you like to order something?”“I am fine, thanks. I just… Joan’s taking me out. Says I need to relax more.”“She’s not wrong,” he agreed.“Do I look that bad?” she asked in mock surprise.Miles chuckled. “You need to be mentally ready and healthy for what’s coming,” he told her.Camila sighed.“It’s going to be a huge storm,” he said.Camila reached out for his hands on the table.“Well, I have you and Joan to stand by me, so it’s a storm I can get through.”He nodded and smiled.“The court date has been postponed due to
A Billionaire's Tale Too Many Secrets
Joan opened the door and stepped inside, letting it close quietly behind her. She hung her coat and moved into the living room, where her parents were curled on the couch—her mother resting peacefully on her father’s lap, his fingers absentmindedly stroking her hair.“Hey, Mum, hey, Dad,” she greeted them.“Shh… Your mum is sleeping,” he whispered, placing his index finger on his lips.“Sorry,” Joan whispered back and entered her room.She sighed as she collapsed on her bed. It wasn’t as soft and comfy as the one she was used to, but it’s something she can cozy up in after a hectic day at work. Like today.Joan closed her eyes and sighed, thinking of all that went wrong today. The text. The rude customer. Camila’s stress over her mother’s case.It was all taking a huge toll on her, and she needed a release. Some good news. Something that would make all these bad things feel like nothing.She quickly freshened up and entered the living room again. Her father was now alone reading a doc
