Natalie's POV

My heart was at rest for the first time after the death of my father. I could finally take over his legacy. For the past 5 years, after I graduated as a doctorate in business administration, I have never taken up a task in that field.

Is it something I still have passion for? Even if it was..was it something I could hold up to.

“Do you have the skill to run a company?”

As I concluded my thoughts,I heard Wilfred's question coming to me raw and direct. My eyes rolled over to stare at him, analysing his facial expression. Was he being caring or was he looking down on me?

I couldn't tell simply because I wasn't sure. Having graduated from that field..I shouldn't have partied away all the ability and resolving issue skills right?

I cleared my throat and looked away. Thinking back, something came to my head. I clicked my tongue and squirmed, “I've not only heard of influential men like you, but I've seen and had a lot of experience. You aren't doing this for nothing, what do y

  • Married To The Broke Billionaire    Chapter 10- I Came To Return The Favor

    My fingers brushed against the hallway rail as I descended down the hall, my eyes glinting as I looked everywhere. They were nowhere to be found around here, so they'd definitely be in the kitchen.Probably gossiping about me. I stopped at the last stair step and gazed around. On my left there was a portrait on the w. His eyes followed my every next movement. I smirked at the oil-painted man. You'd hate me too, wouldn't you, old man?I turned a corner and came face to face with the kitchen hallway. That’s where most of them congregated like gossiping pigeons, pecking at scraps of information and whispers. I didn't stop walking..why would I? I walked right into their space.Silence.Three maids stood around the kitchen counter, one of them stirring a bowl of batter like it was the most interesting thing in the world. Another was wiping the already-spotless counter. The third…the one from earlier…was sipping tea like she paid rent in this house.No! Like she owned the house? Was that h

  • Married To The Broke Billionaire    Chapter 9- The Villainous Awakening

    Natalie's POVI lost count of how many more minutes I stayed stuck in the study. Was this my punishment for coming into the study or my punishment for being born into this world.Finally, a maid came to my aid. Her rescue couldn't be counted as one. She dumped the glue removal gel in front of me, turned around and walked straight out of the room.Even the maids in this house had standards.I crouched to help myself, as I did that, my legs shook uncontrollably like I would fall if I was not careful enough. But the glue was on its super active mode. No matter how shaky my legs were, I wouldn't fall. After constant groaning and tears, I was finally freed. Instantly, I fell to the ground, causing friction between my buttock and the ground. Luckily I didn't fall in the same spot. If not I don't know which kind of story I'd tell again.Should I rather stay in this room? I have nothing to do out there.Just as that thought crossed my mind, I remembered I have duties to perform now. I got on

  • Married To The Broke Billionaire    Chapter 7: Could Cost You More

    Wilfred’s POVI watched her…so defiant, yet so fragile underneath. Natalie had no idea what she was dealing with, no clue how deep the connection her father had created was and how it could be the beginning of her misery. Her father’s name, once respected, was now tangled in debts and debts unpaid. And she? She was the pawn in a game far bigger than her naïve heart could grasp.When I stepped into the study, I saw the papers sprawled across the desk..proof of her desperation, her attempts to wrest control from Mitchell’s grip..or probably get away from me. I should have expected it. She was stubborn like her mother, maybe even more.But I never wanted her in my home.She accused me of stalking her, of invading her privacy. Funny. Maybe I was. But every step I took, every secret I uncovered, was to protect her..like I had promised to keep my end of the deal.I sat down, watching her try to flee. Her legs rooted to the floor.That was no coincidence. She couldn’t escape, not yet. Not un

If Mitchell knew who he is, she would definitely never sell me to him.My brain was in a mess as I continued staring at the papers. Different thoughts that I had never had crossed my mind. My father's business which is now in Mitchell's clutch. How will I attain it? My properties left to me by my father.I was damn sure about one thing, Mitchell would never release it to me and that was why she got me married to Wilfred.I need authority to flip everything open…Just then, I heard a small noise coming from outside. Unbeknownst to me, it wasn't just a small noise, it was someone's light footsteps.

    Natalie's POVI snapped. “I want to leave. Where is my phone. Allow me to speak with him.”I shouted, I knew I was causing a ruckus which I know isn't good for my image. But I need all those things. When did I lose it? I can afford it getting in the hands of the wrong person.The answer they kept giving me was that he was in a meeting.“They're not your staff,” a voice drawled behind me. I spun. He stood at the top of the stairs, one hand in his pocket, watching me.He wore the same outfit, that means he hasn't gotten to his room yet.“They're mine,” he continued, descending from the stairs slowly. “They answer to me, not you.”I marched up to him, seething. I just feel like biting his skin off. “This is illegal. You took my things and you're keeping here. This is kidnapping and I could get you arrested.”He didn't blink. He didn't seem surprised.“You're free to leave,” he said calmly. But beneath that calm voice, I knew there was a storm that could unleash anytime. “But step out tha
