The Billionaire's Binding Proposal ~ 238
Chapter 238~Kesley~The rain didn’t just fall. We had run through the downpour, arriving at the doorstep like a group of drowned rats. The air inside the small building smelled of lavender and old wood, a sharp contrast to the cold, metallic scent of the storm we had just escaped.Niklaus stood in the narrow hallway, water dripping from his expensive coat. He looked around the cramped space, his brow furrowed in deep disapproval. He looked like a king who had been accidentally locked in a shed."Why is he here?" Niklaus asked, his voice low and dangerous. He didn't even look at Jude, but we all knew who he meant. Jude was standing by the door, wringing out his jacket, looking just as annoyed."Because the roads are flooded, Niklaus!" I snapped, the adrenaline from the run making my voice sharper than usual. "The creek is overflowing. There is literally nowhere else for him to go. Unless you want him to swim home in a thunderstorm?"Niklaus tightened his jaw but said nothing.The own

Chapter 237~Kesley~The applause was still ringing in my ears, but my heart was beating much louder. I tried to keep my face calm as I stepped off the stage, but my legs felt jelly.I was shocked to know he was here. But I couldn't. I forced myself to look at the people swarming around me."Kesley, that was amazing!" one of the women said, grasping my hand."The girls are so inspired," another parent added, beaming at me.I nodded and smiled, saying all the right things, but I was acting on autopilot. My phone buzzed in my hand. It was a text from TarajiParents showed up. Going to talk to them at the cafe. Stay safe with Niklaus! I'll call you later.I stared at the screen, a mix of shock and worry hitting me for her, but before I could reply, a shadow fell over me. I looked up to see Jude. He was holding a small bouquet of rose."I'm so proud of you, Kesley," Jude said, his voice soft and full of genuine heat. He held the flowers out to me, his eyes searching mine. "You really did

Chapter 236~Taraji~It was the D-day. I sat in the second row, my chest swelling with a pride so big I thought I might actually pop. Looking up at Kesley on that stage, she looked like a queen.My phone vibrated in my lap for the fifth time. I didn’t have to look at the screen to know who it was. Mom.I stared at the flashing light until it went dark again. I hadn’t spoken to my parents since the night of the big confrontation, when they told me my dreams were a waste of time and when I confronted my father.It hurts every time I thought about them.I felt a warm buzz in my hand, a text this time. I quickly swiped it open, hoping for a distraction. It was Fred. He was sitting a seat from me, looking as polished as ever, but I knew he was watching me.Fred: You’re leaning forward so much I’m afraid you’re going to fall off your chair. Deep breaths, Taraji. She’s doing great.Me: I can’t help it! Look at her! My best friend is a genius. Also, how do you look so calm? You’re wearing a s

Chapter 235~Niklaus~My head still throbbed with a dull, rhythmic ache, something I had gotten from the crash, but the physical pain was nothing compared to the restless feeling in my chest.Fred stood by the door. He didn’t say anything. He knew better than to interrupt me when I was in this state. He was waiting for my move."Where is she, Fred?" I asked."She’s back in the town, sir," Fred replied quietly. "My intel confirms she left with Jude yesterday afternoon. They arrived at her place just before dark."I gripped the glass tighter. The name Jude tasted like poison in my mouth. I had almost died. I had spent hours drifting in and out of consciousness, reaching for her in the dark, only to wake up and find out she had run straight back into the arms of the one man who wanted to take her away from me."Get the car ready," I said, turning away from the window."Sir, the doctors…”"I don't care what the doctors said," I snapped, my eyes flashing. "I am not sitting here while he tr

Chapter 234~Kesley~The ride back to the small town felt a lot longer than usual. Every time the tires hit a pothole, my stomach did a little flip. I kept telling myself I was going back for the girls. The tech program was my dream, my baby, and it needed me. Taraji was coming to meet me later.I couldn't let my personal mess with Niklaus ruin their chance at a better future. But as I walked down the familiar dusty road toward the community center, I couldn't shake the feeling that eyes were on me.I stopped by a shop window, pretending to fix my hair, and looked at the reflection of the street behind me. A black car was parked a block away. It looked normal, but it had been there since I got off the bus. My heart started to thud against my ribs. You’re just being paranoid, Kesley, I scolded myself. The city and its shadows have messed with your head.I entered into the community center. I started setting up the tablets for the afternoon session, but my hands were shaking so hard I

Chapter 233~Rebecca~The sound of shattering glass echoed through the cold, m office. I watched with a grim sort of satisfaction as the expensive red wine splattered against the white wall, looking exactly like a fresh bloodstain. I didn't care about the wine. I didn't care about the mess. I was far beyond caring about being a "perfect lady."Nothing was going right.I paced the length of my office, my heels clicking. I had spent weeks preparing for this moment. I had the documents ready. I had the speeches written. I had even picked out the suit I would wear when I sat in the CEO chair for the first time. But when I stood before the board of directors, they didn't see me fit. That stupid boy ruined everything.I had taken it in my hands to use his accident to gain interest of the board."We need to wait for Niklaus to heal," the old men had said, their voices full of annoying pity. "The Specter Group needs its heir. We cannot make such a big change while he is still in recovery.""

Chapter 16 ~ Niklaus ~I watched Taraji's face carefully, trying to understand what was happening. This didn't make sense. None of it made sense.First of all, I wasn't pursuing her because of her family's textile business. The thought was almost laughable. Yes, the Gilberts had money and connect

Chapter 13~ Kesley ~Wednesday came too fast.Way too fast.I'd barely survived my first day at SpecterTech. Tuesday had been orientation — endless paperwork, badge photos, IT setup, and a tour of the building that I barely paid attention to because I was too busy trying not to run into Niklaus.I

Chapter 17 ~ Kesley ~The moment the word "meerkat" left my mouth, Niklaus released my wrist like I'd burned him.His expression was... I don't even know how to describe it. Shock? Disbelief? Hurt mixed with the faintest hint of amusement?I felt a pang of guilt slice through me so sharp it actual

Chapter 14~ Kesley ~I stood in front of the full-length mirror, barely recognizing myself.The dress Taraji had bought for me was... something. Bright red, skin-tight, with a neckline that plunged so low it was practically illegal, worse than the one I had worn previously. The fabric clung to eve
