Deceiving A Billionaire Shit hit the fan
“You held it down in front of my family. Everyone loves you—the ones who matter at least. Nona wouldn’t stop talking about you. You really know how to charm people.”I smiled. I had planned this for years. Of course, I knew exactly what to do to charm his grandparents. It was the easiest way to get him to ask me to marry him. The inheritance clause was a bonus.“I am so glad they liked me. I was so nervous. I had to pull so many strings to get those gifts for them. It was the only way I knew how to break the ice.” I said. “Thank you for telling me the things they wanted the most.”“Nona and grandpa normally don’t like material gifts, but you managed to make the gifts sentimental.”He was happy, and so was I. We were debating in whose house we would spend the night when Seth’s phone started ringing. When he saw that it was Asher calling, he turned it off.But it just kept ringing.“I think you should pick up the call,” I said. “It could be an emergency.”He picked up his phone and angr
Deceiving A Billionaire Dinner with family
Seth and I headed to his grandparents’ house. He had slept at my house the previous day, which made it easier for us to take his car to go for dinner. He mentioned it was a big deal and many relatives were going to be there, so I had to dress glamorously as everyone would.They treated dinners like a black and tie event.I wore a short, soft pink satin dress, silver stilettos, and I put my hair in a high bun and wore light strawberry makeup. I put on diamond stud earrings, wore a tennis bracelet, and necklace, and carried a pink Kelly Hermes bag.I wanted to fit in with his family.When Seth and I arrived, there were a lot of cars parked up front. The dinner was in a Victorian mansion that looked more like a castle than a house. It had like fifteen bedrooms and four bathrooms.The property had a ranch, a small lake, and a forest.It was huge, and there weren’t neighbors nearby, and there were bodyguards everywhere. I guess many people wanted to harm the Ashford matriarch and patriarch
Deceiving A Billionaire You lied
I laughed nervously, knowing I had to cover up the situation in the best way possible. I started to laugh nervously.“Unfortunately, I thought you studied at Princeton, so now you don’t meet my standards.”Seth laughed along with me, but I could tell he knew something was wrong. I had just freaked out, and he was wondering why. I didn’t even know how to explain the situation myself, let alone tell it to someone else.I chose to push those thoughts aside and concentrate on the happy moments.“So, are you going to come and meet my grandparents this Sunday?” He asked.“Of course. It would be an honor to meet family that means a lot to you.”Seth and I had dinner, and some wine after. He took me home when I told him I wasn’t feeling well. When he told me he wanted to come up to my penthouse with me so he could take care of me, I told him I wanted to be alone.I called Jesse on my way to my penthouse. That bastard lied to me, and I needed an explanation. When I finally reached my penthouse
Deceiving A Billionaire A promotion
The fun I had with Seth was unmatched. We went on trips on the weekends, I spent more time with his shitty friends, and I met his best friend, who was in the mafia. I got the sense that he didn’t like me.But I didn’t care. I was not there to please him. I was there to please Seth, and it was working. He wanted to be with me every free second he had, and he was even spending days on end at my penthouse.I even had space for his clothes in my closet.I thought I would hate it and think he was clingy, but I didn’t. I loved it. It also kept Jesse away. He didn’t pop around as often, mainly because he was busy with Elizabeth. But the main reason he didn’t come by was that he was afraid he would come and see Seth.They would have to meet eventually because Seth was hinting at meeting his grandparents soon. He would want to meet my family afterwards, and the only family I had was my brother.Work was going well, and Mark was about to retire. It was obvious he was leaving the company with me
Deceiving A Billionaire Romantic proposal
After the sentimental things Seth and I had shared, he and I sat at the front of the yacht. We were near the captain, with our legs hanging off. I was barefoot and so was he, and my head was on his shoulder.I was holding on to him for dear life as we watched the moon. I felt safer and more comfortable around him than I had ever felt before.The reflection of the moon and stars on the water was amazing. It was truly a sight for sore eyes. Maybe it was the alcohol or something else, because my whole body was buzzing and I felt an immense sense of happiness.It was the happiest I had been since I lost my parents and later, my grandparents. Grief was a disease, and it swallowed us all alive and spit us out as very different people who were bitter with life and hungry for nothing but revenge.“I’m happy with you, Ivy,” Seth said.“I’m happy with you as well,” I replied.He grabbed the back of my head and kissed me passionately. I kissed him back eagerly and smiled into his mouth.He stood
Deceiving A Billionaire Opening up
“I need to get married before the year ends, or the entire inheritance goes to Lucy and her children. It needs to be someone whom my grandparents have approved. I took too long to take Celeste to meet them because I knew they wouldn’t like her.”“And I was right. They met her and hated her. I was going to marry her and strike a deal with my father’s lawyers to make sure they gave me a pass. I wasn’t sure they would accept. They were very loyal to my father.”I felt bad because of all the information I had been given. It was both disheartening and sad.“Seth Ashford, are you asking me to marry you?” I asked jokingly to lighten the mood.He managed to laugh at the situation even though I was sure he felt terrible.“I am sorry this happened to you. Nothing is more frustrating than someone wanting something you have worked hard for years.” I replied.“I suspect Lucy killed my father. He died from a heart attack when he had previously been very healthy. I know she did something to him, but

“I got your money back and I found the person who stole it,” Seth said to me over breakfast.After he told me about the supposed inheritance he had to get by any means necessary, he became closed off. He refused to speak to me about the situation more than he needed to.That was when we called it a
Deceiving A Billionaire His home
His house was exactly how I expected it to look from the pictures my private investigator had taken for me.He lived in Greenwich, Connecticut. It was typical of him to live there because that was where all the rich people lived. Except, his mansion was beside the ocean.My brother had a mansion th
Deceiving A Billionaire Breaking down
When Seth got to my penthouse, I was breaking down on the ground with my head in my hands. The door to my penthouse was open, and all he had to do was walk in.“What happened?” He asked as he looked around, assessing the mess around. I had stepped on the broken glass due to all the rage I had felt
Deceiving A Billionaire No disobedience
Seth’s driver dropped me off at my building and drove off. I didn’t know how he was planning to go home since he had loaned me his driver. Throughout the entire ordeal, I couldn’t stop thinking about the kiss.My lips still tingled with the remnants of it. I replayed every single moment of it, over
