My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 024 Why Did You Marry Me?
~Rosemary~"Oh my! That can't be good, can it? What if he tells your boss to fire you? It's too early for that jerk to mess things up for you!"I grew worried as soon as Gerald told me about his day. Although I didn't know much about Max's business while we were married, if the latest tax episode was anything to go by, his outburst at G-Tech could cost Gerald his job. To my surprise, Gerald shrugged nonchalantly. He pulled his tie and sat on the sofa. "He can do no more than a fly. I won't get fired.""Why are you so sure?"He shrugged again. Then a proud smile appeared on his face. "I am good at what I do. They won't fire me just because Max said so."His confidence didn't make me any less worried. In the days that followed, I searched online for jobs for him. Unfortunately, most entry-level jobs had ridiculous requirements— at least five years of working experience, multiple referrals, blah, blah, blah. Gerald didn't have any of that. To help, I gave him the gig of redesigning my
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 025 Make-out Session
~Gerald~Her question threw me off guard. My fingers froze on the stem of my wineglass. Seeing that she was staring straight at me, my heart began to race. I looked out the window, fearing that my expression would betray me."I married you because I loved you. I still love you, Rosemary. More than ever, actually!"Those were the words I wanted to say, but instead, here I was staring at the night skyline, conflicted about what to do."What? Why are you suddenly silent?"Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Rosemary lean forward. Her gaze grew intense on my side profile. Finally, I looked at her and shrugged. "I was just thinking about how this marriage came to be."She leaned back in her seat. I saw a hint of sadness on her face, but the next second, she asked again, "So, tell me. Why did you marry me?"I chuckled, but it failed to quell the tension I was currently feeling. I gave another shrug. "Even I do not know. I guess you could say I was feeling epic like a friendly neighborhood Sp
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 026 Awkward
~Rosemary~When our lips touched, I felt my soul being snatched away from me. I knew I should pull away, but Good heavens, I kissed him back and put my hand around his neck instead.The moistness of his lips felt alien at first. However, I soon found myself wanting more as Gerald scooped me up. I floated in his arms for a while. Then, my back hit something soft. I leaned my head back on the pillow, pulling him with me. Our lips collided again. And this time, the kiss was more intense. His tongue tasted like a perfect blend of grapes, blueberries, and herbs. He was sucking on my tongue, so I took the opportunity to taste his.My hands wandered from his back to the nape of his neck over and over. Gerald's hot breath heated my face, but I didn't mind at all. I could hear the thudding of his heart as I pulled him even closer.For a moment, his hand brushed my left butt. I smiled against his mouth and raised my other hand to his chest. I felt for the buttons. And when I found one, I immed
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 027 The Set-up
~Rosemary~There was a note of urgency in Mr. Seth's voice, one that immediately made me forget my annoyance with Gerald. I moved the phone to my other ear and asked, "What's the problem?"What he said next hit me like a bolt out of the blue!"What!" I exclaimed. "Can you repeat that?"The hotel manager did as I asked. My palms suddenly became sweaty. I was disoriented, but I managed to say, "I will be right there. Just hold them for now.""What's wrong?" Gerald asked as soon as I got off the phone.After sparing him a glance, I ran towards the bedroom. He followed behind me as I said, "That was the hotel manager. He said the FDA are at the hotel with a warrant to search the building... Something about someone getting food poisoning."Gerald hesitated. "Do you want me to drive you?""Yes, please!" I agreed immediately, knowing it would be suicide to drive in this condition.The car ride to the hotel suddenly seemed longer than usual even though Gerald drove at a high speed. When we fin

~Rosemary~Electric shivers ran through my whole body when I heard that voice. I glanced at the phone screen, only to find that it was from a private number. Bringing the phone back to my ear, I stammered, "Who...who is this?"But the only response I got was a disconnect tone. As I stared at the phone screen, the menacing voice echoed in my head. I tried to shake it off, but still it replayed. "What's wrong? Who was that?" Gerald leaned in close, looking at me worriedly.I opened my mouth to speak, but no words came out. I could only look at him and then back at the phone."Why do you look like you have seen a ghost?" the mean official, who had been grilling me for over an hour, stacked her hands on the desk and looked at me with a corner of her lips upturned.Only then did I regain control of my body. I showed Gerald the private number call log and whispered, "I think Max has something to do with this. He just called me. I recognized his voice.""Are you sure?" he asked.I nodded fi
My Rented Husband is a Secret Billionaire Chapter 029 Enemy’s Setback
~Rosemary~I gripped the lead gate as the sound of something shattering reached my ears. My heart leaped, and a voice in my head told me to leave immediately. But another voice told me to stay. I took a step further, craning my neck and looking around like a thief.The inside of the container-shaped structure was surprisingly brightly lit. I ran over to the skeletal body of a car and crouched beside it. Then slowly, I pushed my head up to look through the window frame.And that was when I saw him...Max was standing not too far away, flanked by a few suspended cars. About six men in grey overalls stood before him. Each of them was wiping his hand with soiled towels. What's happening? Were they ganging up against Max? Why did he look so pissed?I saw Max grip his nose bridge. He did a 360-degree turn and then glared at the men. "I can't believe what's happening right now. I really can't. Is this a prank? If so, you need to stop right now. This is no joking matter!"One of the men stood

~Gerald~“Hop in!” Rosemary said. Unlocking the passenger door. It was past eight and she had insisted on picking me up even after I told her I stopped by the company to get some work done last minute. I had indeed gone to G-Tech, but not to work. It was my day off, actually.Anyway. I got into the car and fastened my seatbelt. Rosemary stepped on the gas after getting back into the road. I glanced at her and saw that she was wearing a serious expression. The silence suddenly made me feel uneasy. I stared out the window, but my mind was flooded with worry. Was she mad at me for saying I was going for a walk and then went to the company? But I only left to go help her…“So tell me, what was so urgent that it couldn’t wait until tomorrow morning?”“Huh?” I turned my head sharply, stunned by the sudden question.Rosemary gave me a serious look. “You said you were just going for a walk. How come you ended up at “work” instead?”I scratched my head. “Ermm… I was called to handle something

~Gerald~I sat up on the bed abruptly. The sleep cleared off my eyes. I was wearing only black shorts. The air conditioner had been on full blast while I was sleeping, but now, I was sweating. How in the world did Max get that special number?Yes, I was X-crow. Although Elvis handled my email account and he was the one who responded to Max’s outrageous request the other day, my special number was one that I reserved to communicate with a selected few. When not in use, I left it in Elvis’s care for safety reasons. How come Max got it? And what did he mean by he knows everything about me? Like everything everything?I threw on a shirt and went into the bathroom. There, I turned on the tap and left it to run. It wasn’t guaranteed that I would be able to keep my voice down enough. I didn’t want Rosemary to hear me.“Is that the only text he sent? And when exactly was this?” I asked Elvis, sitting on the edge of the tub.I heard a few clicks from his end, and then he said, “It came about
