Christian’s breath hitched for a second. His body stiffened as his mind registered the woman in his arms.

Allison.

He wanted to say her name, wanted to ask what she was doing there, but he stopped himself. His throat tightened as confusion settled in.

“What was my late brother’s widow doing in my arms?” he thought to himself.

He had been making investigations about her, digging up one of two information and strategically planning on how to meet and confront her. He just didn't expect that the would officially meet like this…in a place like this.

He glanced around, wondering if she'd come to the bar with David, but he saw no sign of him anywhere.

His grip loosened slightly, and Allison took the chance to steady herself, stepping back just enough to look up at him. She caught the way his expression shifted, filled with shock, disbelief, maybe even something else—and inwardly, she smirked.

To Christian, it was a moment of confusion, but to Allison, it was a victory. She assumed he m

  • Loving The Billionaire Gone Wrong   A Bruised Reunion

    As David stepped back into the banquet hall, Max trailed behind, his grin hadn’t left since the encounter with Maureen Williams. They barely made it a few paces into the hall before they ran into Felix, who looked mildly baffled as he walked toward them with a wine glass in hand."Hey," Felix said, a little breathless, eyes darting between the two. "Why'd you both leave the terrace so fast? I was just coming to join you."Max let out a chuckle, adjusting the cuff of his shirt as he stepped to the side. "Oh, you missed the fireworks, Felix. Our boy here just turned down Maureen Williams—flat."Felix blinked. "Wait, seriously?" His gaze shifted to David, who stood silent, slowly nursing what little wine remained in his glass.Max gave a dramatic sigh. "She practically served herself on a silver platter. Gown slit to heaven, eyes only for him, and he hit her with the coldest line I’ve ever heard.""Was he in a bad mood or something?" Felix asked, brows furrowing. He turned to David. "Yo

  • Loving The Billionaire Gone Wrong   The Ice King

    The moment David walked into the banquet hall, everything shifted. Conversations faltered, glasses paused mid-air, and necks craned as attention shifted toward him.He wore his usual color palette—muted, dark, and undeniably sharp. Nothing flashy, nothing overdone. Just enough to draw eyes and keep them lingering.The media noticed him immediately. Cameras clicked and lights flashed. In seconds, reporters and photographers rushed forward to catch a glimpse or a shot. Even amidst the glittering crowd, David stood out, effortlessly stealing the spotlight. But while the room pulsed with whispers about his appearance and presence, David’s mind was somewhere else entirely.The past few days had taken their toll on him. Drowning himself in work had become his convenient numbing agent. Better to drown in back-to-back meetings than sit alone with his thoughts about someone.In fact, he hadn’t even planned to come. When the Whitmores sent the invitation, he had made up his mind not to go.He w

  • Loving The Billionaire Gone Wrong   Fitting Room Charm

    Christian couldn't stop staring.Sitting in the backseat with Emma, he tilted his head slightly and let his eyes rest on her for what felt like the hundredth time. She hadn’t noticed — or at least, she pretended not to — but Christian didn’t even try to be discreet anymore. How could he? The gown she had on tonight… it wasn’t the kind of clothes he'd seen Emma wear. It hugged her frame in a way that wasn’t too revealing for him, but still managed to leave just enough to the imagination.He caught her shifting awkwardly, pretending to fix a nonexistent wrinkle in the fabric. Her hand moved, slightly tugging the hem of the gown. Christian’s lips twitched, barely suppressing a smile.Ah, this had to be Sophie’s doing.Emma wasn’t the type to pick out something like this on her own — not because she couldn’t pull it off, but because she was too modest to wear anything that put her in the spotlight. Sophie, however, had no such rest

  • Loving The Billionaire Gone Wrong   Banquet Preparations

    Emma stepped into the sitting room, brushing her hand down her plain jeans as she looked at the two people curled up on the couch.“All right, I’m ready,” she said.Sophie and Claire turned to look at her at the same time. The moment Sophie saw Emma, her face changed into a frown.“Terrible,” she muttered, shaking her head.Emma raised an eyebrow just as Sophie nudged Claire. “What do you think, Claire?”Claire looked a bit uncomfortable, caught between standing by her mother and staying loyal to her godmother. Her eyes paused briefly on Emma’s simple jeans and T-shirt before she gave a small smile. “Mum has other… nicer clothes.”Sophie quickly held up her palm and high-fived Claire with pride.Emma rolled her eyes at both of them. “You two are unbelievable. I’m not going on a formal date or anything. Christian’s just taking me to pick out a dress for the banquet.”“And?” Sophie replied with a wave of her hand. “Does it matter where you’re going? If Christian is TAKING YOU OUT, you

  • Loving The Billionaire Gone Wrong   Treading Carefully

    Emma took a deep breath for what felt like the hundredth time. Her fingers trembled slightly as she reached out toward the doorbell of Christian’s apartment.She paused, her hand hovering just inches from the button, hesitating.It wasn’t like her to hesitate this much. But this time, the uncertainty gnawed at her more than usual.Since last night, Christian had barely said anything. Not a single word after that final, quiet dismissal — "What I don’t need most is your apology.”The drive home had been filled with an uncomfortable silence, neither of them speaking. When she’d invited him into her apartment for dinner, he’d turned her down, saying he’d already eaten earlier.That moment had lingered in her mind all night.Emma hadn’t slept well. She’d tossed and turned, the weight of guilt settling deeper into her chest.She hated not being able to ascertain Christian's feelings. Was he angry? Disappointed? Did he simply not care anymore? She didn’t have answers, only speculation, and t

  • Loving The Billionaire Gone Wrong   Finding Out The Truth

    “What are you looking for?”The silence after the question felt like a blade slicing through the morning air.Isabel’s breath hitched, and she looked like someone had yanked the soul out of her body. Her mouth opened, then closed again. She tried to speak, but her lips quivered too much to form words.Mathew stood just a few meters away, having risen from the nursery beds where he had been tending to a cluster of delicate seedlings. Dirt clung to his palms and the knees of his trousers were soiled, but his expression was calm—almost too calm.He had been crouched just a few distance behind the tall hedges, lost in his quiet work. None of the women had noticed him. Their voices, rising with tension, had broken through what he was doing and caught his attention.At first, Mathew didn't even like gardening. It wasn’t his thing. But some time ago, during one of Claire’s visits to his home, she had pleaded with him to plant flowers with her. She had been so full of joy, running through the
