Lily’s POV...

The morning light poured through the blinds, too bright, too harsh. My head still ached from crying, and my body felt like I’d been run over by a storm. Maybe I had.

I was late. Again.

I rushed through my routine, threw on a blouse and skirt that didn’t need ironing, tied my hair into a quick ponytail, and prayed Andrew wouldn’t notice my tired eyes — or worse, the distance I was trying so hard to rebuild between us.

I couldn’t forget last night.

The rain.

The truth.

Lily's very observant and has good instincts. Her and Andrew are on the same page. Ryan is spying for Andrew's father. Two rats working together overtly.

  • A NIGHT WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS    Chapter 049: Creepy island

    Orion’s POV“Where exactly were you going?”I looked at Aria, then glanced toward the trees where Janice had disappeared.Aria folded her arms. “I was going to find out what she’s doing.”“By following her into the forest?”“Yes, Orion that’s usually how you find out what someone is doing.”I sighed, dropping the small animal I’d caught beside the pile of fruits “Can you stop being difficult for five minutes?”“Can you stop defending someone who is obviously lying?”I stared at her.“Janice isn’t the enemy, Aria.”“You don’t know that.”“And neither do you.”“Exactly and that’s the problem!”She threw her hands into the air, I rubbed my forehead, I had been gone for barely an hour, and somehow the two of them had managed to turn the shelter into a battlefield.“What exactly has she done that makes you so convinced she’s lying?”Aria stared at me as though I had just asked the stupidest question in the world.“Seriously?”“Yes. Seriously.”“She accused me of pushing her when I didn’t e

  • A NIGHT WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS    Chapter 048: play the victim

    Aria’s POVI couldn’t believe her.I stood there, staring at Janice as she sat on the ground, holding her knee and looking at Orion with tears in her eyes.She was obviously lying, a complete, shameless lie.I hadn’t touched her, not even once and yet somehow, I was standing there being accused of pushing a girl who had appeared out of nowhere on an island where Orion and I had been stranded for days.“Are you seriously going to sit there and lie?” I asked.Janice sniffled “I don’t understand why you’re being so mean to me.”I blinked, Oh, she was good, very good.“Mean?”I pointed at myself “Me?”“Aria,” Orion warned.I turned to him and rolled my eyes “What?”He looked between us, clearly frustrated “Can we stop this?”I stared at him “Did you hear what she just said?”“Yes, I heard.”“Then why are you acting like nothing happened?”“Because arguing isn’t going to help anyone.”I laughed in disbelief “Of course.”He frowned “What does that mean?”“Nothing.”Janice sniffled again an

  • A NIGHT WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS    Chapter 047: I don’t trust her

    Orion’s POVThe girl collapsed before we could reach her.“Hey!”I rushed forward and caught her before her head hit the ground.She was surprisingly light “Can you hear me?”Her eyes fluttered open “Please…” she whispered.“Easy now, you’re okay.”I glanced at Aria, who was standing a few steps away, looking just as shocked as I felt.“Help me get her up.”Aria hesitated before approaching and together , we helped the girl sit against the tree.She looked terrible.Her clothes were dirty and her hair was tangled, and there were scratches on her arms. Her face was pale, and she looked like she hadn’t slept properly in days.“What’s your name?” I asked.She swallowed “Janice.”“Okay, Janice I’m Orion, and this is Aria.”Janice looked between us. “Are you… are you stranded here too?”I exchanged a glance with Aria “Yes.”Her eyes filled with tears. “Oh my God.”She covered her face and I crouched in front of her.“Hey, calm down. When did you get here?”She tried to speak, but her voic

  • A NIGHT WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS    Chapter 046: A new member

    Aria’s POVFew days later….I was bored.The kind of boredom that made you question every decision that had led you to where you were.Including jumping into the ocean after a boy who had somehow managed to pull me onto a deserted island.I glanced at Orion and he was lying on his back on the wooden floor, one arm behind his head, staring at the ceiling.He looked comfortable.“I’m bored.” I said and he didn’t move “Congratulations.”I turned my head toward him “Did you hear what I said?”“Unfortunately.”I grabbed a small piece of dried leaf and threw it at him, it landed on his chest and he picked it up and tossed it aside.“Violence won’t make you less bored, princess.”“Neither will your annoying attitude.”He chuckled and I sat up and looked around our little shelter.We had already eaten the fruits we’d collected the previous day and Orion has proven to be useful by hunting a little rabbit , crazy right?We had tried making another signal earlier that morning, but there had be

  • A NIGHT WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS    Chapter 045: smoke in the air

    Aria’s POVThe sound came again.Crunch, crunch, crunch.I couldn’t move.Orion stood in front of me, his entire body tense and the fire between us crackled, throwing orange light across his face.“Did you hear that?” I whispered.“Yes.”Another branch snapped.This time, from somewhere farther to our left.Orion picked up the knife we’d found earlier.“Stay here.”I immediately grabbed his arm “No don’t go anywhere”“Aria.”“I’m not staying here alone.”He looked at me for a moment and then he sighed.“Fine but stay behind me.”I nodded and we both stared into the darkness, a few seconds passed then a small animal suddenly darted through the bushes.I screamed and Orion jumped, the animal disappeared into the trees and we stood there frozen then Orion slowly lowered the knife.I stared at him and he stared at me.“You screamed my ears off.”“So did you.”“I did not.”“You absolutely did.”“I made a noise.”I burst out laughing and he shook his head “Don’t.”“You were scared!”“I w

  • A NIGHT WITH MY BILLIONAIRE BOSS    Chapter 044: Aria please be there

    Aiden’s POVI hadn’t slept properly in days.Every time I closed my eyes, I saw the same thing.Aria disappearing beneath the waves and Orion being pulled away.Their hands slipping apart and then nothing.I sat in the command room, staring at the large map spread across the table.There were circles drawn around different sections of the ocean, several islands had been marked.I hated the feedback of every single one.“Still nothing?”I looked up and Andrew stood across the room with his arms folded.He looked exhausted.Lily was sitting beside him, her hands wrapped around a cup of coffee she hadn’t touched.Orion’s parents were on the other side of the room, speaking quietly with one of the officers.Riley sat beside me.Andrew pulled out a chair and sat beside me.“We’re going to find them.”I nodded. “I know.”But my voice didn’t sound convincing, Andrew looked at me. “You don’t believe that.”“I do.”“You’re lying.”I sighed.“I just…”I couldn’t finish and Andrew leaned back. “
