CATALINA

“Dorothy, I really think it's time you left the kitchen duties to Chyna,” Victoria commented, elegantly dabbing the corner of her lips after taking only two bites of her breakfast. “And you, Henrietta, what were you doing when she was cooking this disaster?”

I suppressed the urge to laugh when I saw Dorothy's expression. Her face was drained of color as she struggled to form an explanation, but nothing came out of her lips. She glanced at Henrietta for help, but my mother-in-law seemed too preoccupied to respond.

She was busy glaring at me.

Victoria must have caught her looking at me because she suddenly shifted her gaze to me. “In fact, I remember asking Catalina to make me her Mexican dish this morning. What happened?”

The room fell into silence as everyone's eyes rested on me. I could feel the desperation underneath their gaze, their silent plea asking me to come up with some kind of excuse to explain this difficult problem.

Did they really expect me to help them?

  • The Billionaire's Redemption Game    The Couple Interview.

    CATALINAAn hour later, I found myself in the hotel’s garden, seated beside Theodore on a cushioned loveseat beneath the dappled shade of palm fronds where the interview was taking place. It was more than I had prepared for, the sight of camera equipments and staff running back and forth to set up the incoming interview. The journalist sat across us, legs crossed as she let the make-up artist work her magic. In my case, a woman painted my manicured nails with a peach pink color, the shade perfectly mirroring the faint blush in my cheeks and contrasting against my sage-green dress. Theodore had also changed into a suit with the similar color, his hair styled in a wet and tousled fashion. The lighting caught on the clean lines of his high cheekbones and the sharp bridge of his nose, emphasizing a face sculpted with almost unfair precision.After a few minutes, the journalist gave one final, satisfied glance in the mirror before she waved her makeup artist away. Her gaze flicked brief

  • The Billionaire's Redemption Game    Business First, Catalina.

    CATALINAA low groan escaped my lips when I heard the door closed shut. I wasn't usually sensitive to sounds, but I had a hard time sleeping last night. There was no way to tell if it was because of the tension we had last night, but I kept having funny dreams about Theodore. Dreams I shouldn't been having. I spent all night tossing and turning between the sheets, my body hot and feverish with desire. It was these crazy thoughts in my head, creating this fantasy about having an angry Theodore in my bed. I couldn't stop imagining how it would feel to have his hands over me. The way his intense gaze scorched my skin with possessiveness as he tore my clothing away from my body. We would get hot and sweaty under the sheets, each touch rough with heat and defiance. That's why I couldn't sleep properly, and it was all his fault. So I opened my eyes and found the subject of my dreams standing right in front of me. Theodore was dressed in a gray double-breasted waistcoat tailored to perfe

  • The Billionaire's Redemption Game    There's No Reason To Fear Me.

    CATALINAWhat the hell was I doing, letting him into my hotel room like this?That was the only thought I had, watching Theodore unpack in the room. He had no business here in the Maldives, yet he managed to occupy every part of my life in less than four hours. I still wasn't happy he had cut my fun night so abruptly, but his timely intervention saved me from making a costly mistake. If I had known his younger brother, Conrad had been hiding here all along, I would have never set foot in this island. “Are we going to tell Chyna about Conrad?” I finally asked, my voice piercing through the thick silence between us. “She's going to freak out if she finds out.”Theodore set his laptop on the bed with a muted thump, his fingers brushing over the polished surface before zipping his bag with clean, controlled movements. “That’s why I asked him to go home first,” he said, still not looking at me.Great. He wasn’t even bothering to fake eye contact now.I simply hummed in acknowledgement af

  • The Billionaire's Redemption Game    Settling Their Differences In The Lobby.

    THEODORE The ride back to the hotel was completely filled with silence. Although I was partially glad to see the fear and concern in the ladies' eyes, it was a really bad time to leave me with my thoughts because I kept replaying the scene from the nightclub in my head. The fact that Catalina kept fiddling with her short silver dress didn't help either. The way she kept tugging down the hem of the dress drew my attention to how dangerously short it was. The possibility that every man in that night club had seen those gorgeous legs and perfect curves made me want to entertain very dark thoughts. Catalina believed I was a prude businessman, the kind that never got his hands dirty by dabbling in illegal dealings. She was wrong. There was a time in my life when I had no choice but to step into the shadows to revive the Knight family in the corporate world. I just made sure I got out early. As the only hope of the Knight family, I did everything I could to make sure our name was kept

  • The Billionaire's Redemption Game    Rescuing Her From Trouble Again.

    THEODORE When I saw how scared Catalina was, I knew I had made the right call to come to the Maldives. After that phone call, it became disturbingly difficult for me to concentrate on my paperwork. Of course, my concern had nothing to do with a stubborn blonde Latina who always wanted to have her way no matter what. I just wanted to make sure my sister-in-law was safe, so I decided to check on how they were doing.Fortunately, my assistant managed to trace their location through a hotel booking they made linked to my card statement. When I finally arrived, the concierge casually informed me that they had gone to a nightclub. Anger surged in my chest when I received the information. Catalina had one job, and she couldn't even do it properly. I mean, how hard was it to keep herself and her sister-in-law out of trouble?So, I asked the driver to take me to the nightclub they went. When we got there, I immediately checked the bar since I figured Chyna was more likely to be there. Her

  • The Billionaire's Redemption Game    Claimed On The Dance Floor.

    CATALINAAt 10pm, Chyna and I finally reached our destination. The car rolled to a stop outside the nightclub, the entrance filled with neon lights that flickered across the pavement. The driver stepped out first to open the door for us, his stark black unform gleaming under the colored lights. His entire figure drew the attention of a few curious people standing at the entrance. I murmured a thanks as I took his hand. “We will be back by 12pm, so please make sure you return on time.”“Yes, Ma'am,” he nodded before returning to the car. After the car left, I breathed in the fresh air tainted with cigarette smoke and drugs. Back home, there were even more wilder parties I used to go to, but I tried my best to find a fairly mild one so Chyna wouldn't be too scared by the choas. Once we stepped inside, we were immediately greeted by the sight of people cheering loudly at the DJ who had just opened a bottle of champagne which sprayed all over the DJ controller, landing on the floor.
