The Missing Billionaire (ENGLISH) Chapter 39: Shadows After Laughter
"Have you chosen what you're going to wear?" I asked as I approached him.He was still in the middle of picking a top. He’d been standing there for more than twenty minutes and had already tried on two long sleeves, slacks, and a tuxedo earlier, but still hadn’t chosen anything.I wanted to help him, but we might not agree when it comes to clothing style. So I just let him choose what he wanted to wear."Not yet, I’m having a hard time," he said, shifting his gaze between the two white long sleeves he was holding before turning to look at me.I chuckled a bit at the emotion he showed me. He already looked stressed and seemed like he could burst into tears at any moment.I really need to help him choose what to wear before it gets dark."Can you help me?" he asked, his eyes pleading as they looked at me. I nodded in response and took the two buttoned long-sleeved shirts from him.They're the same in color but different in style. I think both suit him, but I have to choose one."This on
The Missing Billionaire (ENGLISH) Chapter 38: His Gift, Her Guilt
“H-He doesn’t love you, Erina. He’s just messing with you, okay?” I told myself while clutching my hair.I’ve been going crazy thinking about what Louie did earlier—how he kissed me. Even now, I still can’t believe he could kiss me without a valid reason.I'm not mad because I know I was the one who gave him a reason to do it. But I just can't get it out of my mind because our lips have touched twice already, and it's something I never wanted to happen. And I don’t want it to happen again without a valid reason.“It was just a kiss, Erina. It didn’t mean anything,” I reminded myself again, but I suddenly started stomping my feet in frustration while sitting on the bed.Next time, I really won’t sulk at him anymore—he might do something even more than just a kiss. But hopefully, it doesn’t go that far.“Hello, Aunt Olivia…”I don’t know why she suddenly called me. But I think I already have an idea—it’s about the party that will happen on Friday.[Hello, dear Erina... are you busy?]I
The Missing Billionaire (ENGLISH) Chapter 37: Unexpected Kiss
I couldn’t respond because of what he said. I just stared at him, as if hypnotized by the way he was looking at my lips. But my heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was about to burst out of my chest.I already understand what he wants to tell me, but I don't know how to answer his question."Can I try using your lips? Maybe it will help bring back my memories," he asked, which shocked me even more.Huh? This guy's crazy!Has he gone mad? Is he messing with me? Why would he ask me that?"Are you stupid?? You want a punch?" I said in my head, annoyed.I wanted to say those words to him, but damn, it’s like I suddenly lost my tongue because of what he said—something I totally didn’t expect.I don't know if he's just teasing me, but the way he looks at me is so serious that I can't tell if he's really just joking around."Uhh, umm... let's eat, the food might get cold—"I wasn’t able to finish what I was about to say because he suddenly lifted me up and sat me on the countertop. I
The Missing Billionaire (ENGLISH) Chapter 36: Morning Surprises
I'm staring blankly at the ceiling with both my arms resting on my head, deeply lost in thought. I can't think of anything else but what happened between me and my father yesterday. But aside from that, I'm also thinking about the way Louie gently touched my cheek yesterday.I don’t know why he did that. I don’t know why it had such a strong effect on my body—especially on my heart.His looks and his touch carried so much concern and love—the kind I’ve never felt from my own father."Ugh, you’re going crazy, Erina! You can’t be falling for him, okay?" I said to myself in annoyance and lightly slapped my cheek.Before I could go crazy thinking about it, I decided to get out of bed. Once I got up, I immediately went to the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face."Good morning, Erina!" I greeted myself with a smile as I faced the mirror before letting out a deep sigh.I don’t have work today because of Boss Yuki’s decision. But I still need to wake up early to clean the apartment.M
The Missing Billionaire (ENGLISH) Chapter 35: Where It All Broke
*ERINA ISABEL TUAZON POVI’m already home at the apartment, but I still haven’t gone inside. I’m still outside trying to find the right timing to open the door. I can’t bring myself to do it because Louie might notice the slap marks on my cheek caused by my dad.I couldn’t go to work at the restaurant because of this and because my dad humiliated me, so I chose to just go home because of what happened to me today.I let out a deep sigh and decided to open the door. I found him sitting in the living room—obviously resting.He must be tired because of what I ordered him to do this morning. But in the end, he still managed to do it without difficulty. I saw the five curtains I washed last night hanging outside. And that only means—what I asked him to do was basic for him.“Louie...”He immediately turned to me when he heard my voice. I noticed the surprise on his face—he probably didn’t expect me to come home this early. But his expression suddenly changed when his eyes landed on my chee
The Missing Billionaire (ENGLISH) Chapter 34: Shattered Hopes
I let out a deep sigh after rinsing and hanging outside the curtains that Erina had washed last night. I was so exhausted because I thought they were just thin, but they turned out to be thick and there were actually six pieces of curtains she had washed.I admit I don’t know how to do laundry—I’ve never done it in my entire life, and this was the first time I had to because Erina told me to. I didn’t want to disappoint her, so I did everything I could.I try to do it whenever it’s the day off of my house keeper. But honestly, I just can’t handle it, especially when there are stains. That’s why I asked Deo for help on how to do it until I finally got the hang of it.“Deo, do you have any news yet on who’s behind that?” I asked when he finally answered my call. Actually, I’ve been calling him for a while, but he only answered just now.I need to know who tried to take my life. It’s been a week since the accident happened, but until now, Deo still hasn’t found any lead on who was behind
