Entangled With The Billionaire Player 36: You Are Entangled With Me
"Sarah, why would you do that?" I hissed. "I can't hear you." Sarah turned a deaf ear and pushed me forward. Many people had anticipated expressions, watching me curiously. "If I can't kill you, I swear I'll stop buying your clothes," I grumbled to myself. Walking gradually, I reached Damien at last. I coughed slightly, gaining his attention. "Do you want to dance?" Damien snorted. "You," He arched a brow, unamusedly, "want to dance with me? What's the catch?" "There's no... catch, Damien." It was all because of my lovable friend's courtesy. "What if I say no?" He gazed down at me blankly. My face became expressionless. Of course, he would not leave this chance to humiliate me. "I would complain to Uncle Victor." "Childish." He rolled his eyes. "Let's go." "Where?" I eyed him suspiciously. "To a dark alley to kill you." It was my turn to snort. "You plan to kill me?" "Who knows." He shrugged nonchalantly. I stopped myself from retorting. I wanted to cancel this event now
Entangled With The Billionaire Player 37: We Are An Ideal Couple
7 Days Ago "And what is that you propose, Mr Atkinson?" My heart thumped. Where was this dreadful feeling creeping in? "Marry me, Miss Ford." This guy, was he right in the head? Why in the hell would he ask me this!? "Mr Atkinson, I suppose we were planning on discussing cooperation against our common enemy. And, not..." I shook my head, taking a deep breath. "Marriage is not a game, Mr Atkinson, " I said again, my fingers digging into my palms. Images of my Mom and Dad's marriage began to invade my vision. "This will not be a true marriage, Miss Ford. I assure you of it." Aaron's tone was casual as if it did not bother him. "We don't have to bind ourselves with the vows." Observing my silence, he raised a brow mockingly. "Or are you like those good girls who have been convinced by this hearsay from their childhood that marriage is a sacred reunion between two partners and that no deceit or fallacy must be in between them? Miss Ford, no one believes in such anymore." I glar
Entangled With The Billionaire Player 38: You Have My Loyalty
"Are you for real?! You're actually marrying a man you despise, Vicky?" Sarah's tone carried astonishment. "Is Enemies-to-lovers also your favourite trope? Vicky!! I'm going insane. Answer me, my favourite best friend!" "Sarah, I'll explain when we meet at Jackson's club, okay?" Sighing, I rubbed my forehead. Since yesterday, I have been receiving the same reactions. Social Media was hell for me. 'Why did you decide to marry Aaron Atkinson?' 'Why the hottest man of all people?' 'She's only marrying for money, people.' 'Gold-digger.' 'Is Aaron Atkinson blind? Why is he marrying such a greedy woman?' "Boss, stop reading them," Stacy placed my dark coffee before me and quietly suggested. I sighed once again and closed the phone's screen. "Can't say I didn't expect that. But in reality, it hits way worse than I pictured in my mind." All the respect I earned in my field of work went down the drain. Merely, because I decided to marry the richest and probably the most power
Entangled With The Billionaire Player 39: Wife Eloping
As soon as I pressed the button and sent the text, I switched off my phone and rested my head on the steering wheel. I never thought I would come here. When my grandfather was alive, I refused to come here as I could not embrace the fact that Mom had left me. I took a deep breath as I entered the cemetery. My steps quickened as her gravestone appeared before my eyes. The water almost gathered around my orbs which I quickly blinked. Evelyn Ford was beautifully carved on the marble. Pursing my lips, I placed a bouquet in front of her, her favourite white lilies, "Hey, long time no see, Mom. How are you?" A rush of wind went past me, making me exhale. "I... I came here to tell you something," I swallowed. "Your husband, Stefan Ford, remarried and lives happily with his new wife and daughter." Talking about them left an astringent taste in my mouth. I would have to tighten the security if he

"Today we are gathered here to witness the matrimonial ceremony taking place between Miss Ford and..." I could not take a good look at the people I knew. Jackson had a sour/betrayed face. Michael and Stacy's faces wore grim looks. Uncle Victor had some emergency regarding the troublemaker trio, so he could not come. Sarah's lips were pursed. And Ben? He was not even here. What happened in the cemetery, should not have occurred. Ben had a pained expression, something I had never seen him wearing except for the time he lost to me by one mark in our biology quiz. I was sad inside my heart, stoicism seen from my face, and blank when it came to mind. Marriage. This word kept on repeating like a broken record. I was getting married today. Victoria Ford was getting married, and people were cheering her on for it. Media coverage. News broadcasting of our marriage on television. "Sweetheart," A charming and irritating whisper invaded my ears. "You don't think you could have gone
Entangled With The Billionaire Player 41: Your Uncle is a Devil
Maximus Leinster. A person who never once crossed my mind when I made plans, was here in the flesh."You're back 2 weeks earlier, Uncle." I walked up to him.His tall figure donning a black coat while wearing a greyish turtleneck, became clear. He put down his luggage and assessed me like he always did when he came back."Oh, is this supposed to be a bad thing considering how pale you look?" He tilted his head, his moves slow and phlegmatic."No, it isn't. I'm just... astounded. It would have been great had you informed me in advance," I said slowly."That's fine. I simply wanted to surprise my pretty niece," Uncle Max waved his hand in dismay, suddenly smiling lazily. "Anyways, what are we having here? A party?"He observed the surroundings keenly. Taking in the sight of the well-decorated lawn. His eyes were of a hawk. Observation skills were one of his strong suits.Did I tell the lawn attached at the back was a part of our old house property where Grandfather and his children use
Entangled With The Billionaire Player 01: Truly Merciful
"He is begging for your mercy, Boss. He says he has got a family to feed." "Is he still inside the building?" I checked the time and asked Michael, my trusted assistant. He has always been there with me, helping me with the business I had to take over years ago. In a way, he is my mentor who has taught me everything I know and has assisted me to become who I am now. "Yes, he says he won't leave until you meet him." I sneered, "Heh, the sheer audacity. Call security and have him escorted out." Michael nodded and started to go out until I stopped him, "Michael." "Yes, Boss." "I don't want any drama." "Noted, Ma'am." "And for the last time, stop calling me with words like Boss and Ma'am! You are free to call me by my name." "I can't afford this privilege, Ma'am. It will be burdening for me." Like a professional, Michael refused. As always. Sighing, I stretched my arms, feeling a dull ache due to working constantly, "I can't argue with you. Go and settle that Murphy. We can't t
Entangled With The Billionaire Player 02: Family Dinner
"Help me reserve a seat in that auction. I will go there myself." I told Michael on the earpiece and started the engine. I wanted to meet the owner who backed away from his words and have a friendly talk with him. The work hours ended. Thus just like everyone, I too left the office. At this moment, I wished I had more work and more reports to check and go through. Going back to that place was the most dreadful thing I evaded at any cost, at any chance I could get. Yet here I am, going to that place again. "I'm here," I informed and the entrance door opened instantly. Taking slow steps I was met with an old woman who was there waiting for me in the hallway. She looked down when I bravely locked eyes with her as if wanting to hide away from me. But did she hide and run away? Nope. She stood shamelessly without flinching when she saw me again. She even smiled like she was glad to see me. "Victoria..." She came forward but I created a distance between us, stepping back. "It's M
