Bound To The Billionaire Chapter 80
Come Monday morning the next week, I was ready to start initiating my plans, but first I needed to get through Jeremy. He was the only stumbling block that was holding me back from knocking some blocks from Alex’s high tower.Jeremy was still my partner and friend, and even though we were currently going through a rough patch and we weren’t exactly on talking terms, I still needed him to be on board, and I knew just how to do it.The first thing I did was drive to the same jewelry shop where I had gotten a gift for Charles. Jeremy had always been crazy about one Audemars Piguet wristwatch, and it should be the perfect icebreaker.I had checked the amount online prior to my arrival, and Lord, the gasp I let out. I had broken into a loud cough, almost coughing my lungs out. But I had to do it; if I wanted our friendship to continue, I should be ready to go the extra length."Hello, miss.” The lady behind the counter greeted me with a cheerful smile, and I melted as I saw it. I recognized

“Are you crazy?” Jeremy yelled; his voice would have been echoing all around the room if it were empty. His eyes were narrowed, and he was looking at me like I had attempted to overthrow the sitting president or the royal family when, in truth, I was just telling him what would benefit us.“Geez, you don’t have to shout, you know. I am just looking for ways to push this company forward.” I tried to explain myself better.“There are different ways of trying to grow the company without involving this. This is practically stealing, and you know it is frowned upon in our line of business.” Now it was my turn to frown. I couldn’t believe what he had just uttered from his mouth.“Who said it was stealing? This is business; you have to fight tooth and nail to get what you want. Nothing is handed to you on a silver pallet, and nothing is set in gold. Have you not heard the term "overtaking " before?”He twisted his lips, and his nose flared like he had inhaled an awful smell. “I don’t like th

We rode in different cars to their mansion only because we would be going home after that, and I didn’t want to be too much of a disturbance to him. Jeremy rode in his Hyundai, and I rode in my Cadillac.Jeremy arrived before me only because I was a law-abiding citizen and would never go past the speed limit. He, on the other hand, was a beast on the highway.It was a miracle that I was still alive all through the time he had been driving me around. Jeremy had a thing for fast cars and was secretly enrolled in an underground car racing game.I would never understand what is wrong with men and their obsession with fast cars. But I could ponder about that later. We arrived at the mansion almost at the same time, and we came out of our vehicle and met at the entrance.Jeremy opened the door, letting me go through first, and I entered inside. With him, I was always sure that chivalry was not dead.The mansion was, like always, cold and a little too posh to be a family house. It looked like

The cancer awareness charity was to be held in the evening of the same day, and Charles and his wife had been kind enough to shop for us all—both dresses and suits.It was a black-tie event with a strict dress code, and anyone who didn’t abide by the rules would be kicked out by beefy security. Yes, it was that extreme.The party was for the 1% of the 1%, only the big fish. Men who could afford everything that money could buy. It was even better that it was a masquerade party, and I was actually looking forward to this one because I could blend in well with the crowd.The cancer awareness course was something I would like to give towards, and also, the rich knew how to party; there was always finger food passing around, and they had the best of drinks and cocktails.I heard a knock on my door, and I stood up from my bed, puzzled. It couldn’t be Jeremy because he would have informed me before he came, nor was it Anna and Charles’s, as I was sure they were still getting dressed.My surv

“Alex.” I whispered his name under my breath, afraid that if I called it out too loud, it would break whatever spell I was under.Although he was wearing a black mask like every other man, I could recognize those blue orbs shining like a glow bulb and that jawline anywhere; it was so sharp that it could cut through me, and I would probably thank him.He was now standing in front of me, and I inched my body to face him, but the greatest shock happened to me.This man stood in front of me and gave me a once-over. His face was blank like a tabularazza, not revealing anything, and I don’t know if he was bored or just disinterested.Alex brushed my arm ever so slightly, and he walked past me. Yes, you heard me. This son of a gun had the guts to walk past me after he had pretty much undressed me with his eyes.I stood there, transfixed, my jaw almost hanging open in shock. I was quick to recover, and I closed my mouth, shaking my head. I scanned through the crowd, looking around to see if a

“Ruby, a word.” Alex said as he neared me, ignoring the man who was standing beside me. I looked at him with a scowl on my face.My initial admiration had disappeared, and now I was just angry. Who was he to just order me around? Is that how to talk to someone you have been ignoring the whole night?“Knight, I didn’t think you’d bother yourself with events like this.” Elijah said, looking up at him. Alex was only slightly taller than him, but the way he stood, you would think he was more than a foot taller.“What I bother with is none of your business.” Alex retorted, barely sparing a glance at the young man. From the static electricity that was sizzling between them, I knew they weren’t exactly the best of friends.“It is my charity business, and you are here, so I am concerned.” Elijah said in a nonchalant tone. I could already sense the rivalry between the two men; it didn’t start today, and I didn’t want to be in the midst of it.I turned on my heel, ready to leave them to their ‘

“I am going to kiss you.” Alex whispered in my ears, and my breath caught in my throat, surprised by what he had said. He gave me a moment to brace myself before he came onto me.His hands circled around my waist, and he pulled me closer until I was just a breath away from him. I was so close to him that I could perceive the mouthwash he had used.He leaned closer to me, little by little, just so I could feel the rising tension between us and the growing electricity we were generating.His hands were on my nape, and he held me closer—so close that whenever I took a breath, my breasts pressed against his chest.My eyes fluttered shut as his lips came closer, and I was almost sighing in relief as they touched mine in what I term a sweet harmony, and he kissed me.Alex kissed me like a starving man who had just seen food and had been given a time limit for him to finish it; if not, they were going to take it away from him.I reciprocate the gesture, giving him everything and not withholdi

We entered his house, and he reached for the light switch and turned it on. With the sudden emergence of light, I was overwhelmed, and I wrapped my arms around me, folding into myself.My mind wandered to Jeremy, and I could imagine the look on his face when it was time to go home and he discovered I wasn’t around. He would be so disappointed.“Should we go upstairs to my room?” Alex suggested, and I was nodding my head. Jeremy could wait a little longer. I will deal with him when the time comes.“Sure.” I let him lead the way, even though I was no stranger to this house. There was something feminine about a man taking charge, and I wouldn’t want to take that role.My eyes scanned the house as I moved, trying to take note of anything different, but nothing much has changed since I last came here. Aside from the new painting, there was no difference.Even the placement of things was the same.We came to the familiar mahogany door, and he pushed it open for me to enter. “Thank you.” I s
