Trapped By A Billionaire

Today is the day!Iris could not contain her giddiness and happiness as the day that she waited entirely for this month had finally come.Iris' Divine Cupcakes, her small but treasured business, got a contract deal as one of the exclusive vendors to cater to the mega engagement party of the tycoons' heirs in her country.Her small but homey kitchen was already busy with all sorts of activities to prepare cupcakes this morning. It filled the house with warm and sweet scents from baked cupcakes and lots of frosting to decorate the cake.Its wooden countertop table was filled with scattered powdered sugar, like the place was just visited by fairies. Frosting cream with silver and ice blue colors to fit the engagement party's theme, and a lot of sprinkles matched with the color gradation of the frosting.Classic Jazz from David Miles was faintly heard from the living room. Those songs reminded Iris of her late parents, who loved to dance in the night with this music.The last batch of the

IRISShe flew...Yes, she knew it sounded like a coward, and she indeed felt like a mere baby animal who tucked her tail inside after the accident with that handsome stranger.That was her genuine response under such an ambush. Either she fights or flight. She could not take the weird tension that she felt when she talked with him. And it resulted in her not being acquainted with him properly. She did not even know his name. And she felt really stupid because after she gave him her name card, she forgot to ask for his name.Ideally, it should not matter to her whether she knew his name.But she was... deep down felt anxious when she got in this disadvantageous position like this. She got none while he took her name and phone and all the information provided on her name card.The further she walked away from the hall, the clearer her mind from the hazy mist of her befuddled brain.Not to mention her heartbeats became slower and finally, they thumped with a normal rhythm as they were su

ALEXANDER He knew he had made the colossal decision when he ditched his engagement party yesterday. But, once again, he got ambushed. By his father, by his family name. The Browning held an invincible string toward his future. His anchor, who grounded him from this family insanity, had already departed from this fucked up world. His mother left him, and now he no longer cared if he acted rashly or unhinged. Just half an hour before his engagement party started, Alexander decided to give a big middle finger toward his father. So he ran away and dealt with the consequences later. There was another important agenda to set his freedom in motion. On the black sedan he deliberately rented for this purpose, he pushed the pedal and went above 150 km/hour on a highway. Based on the GPS, he should reach the target place around 15 minutes after he exited the highway. Yes, he came to the small and humble bakery shop after he took a left. A cute one, if he might add. The signage was wri

ALEXANDERIt was one AM after midnight he arrived at his cold and quiet penthouse. His temporary resident when he got back here and visited his mother when she was sick. Now the darkness and the coldness of this big room were more profound and Alex contemplated his life and his colossal decision to defy his father. He knew his quick action, and he set the spontaneous decision once he put his eyes on Iris. He had to have her. And how his father schemed and join forces with The Ruthford family solidified his resolution to break the ties with his father. He would fight back and take what was his and his mother owned since the beginning. Her mother was the true beauty. The old money who brought her wealth to support his father’s venture ever since the beginning. Until his father’s company became big and put the status as a billionaire. All was because of his mother, and her naivety if Alex thought bitterly. “Hey Sebastian, sorry to call you this late,” After he arrived at the penth

Iris blinked slowly. She was trying to process what Alexander had just said to her. “We don’t have a date!” Iris told him dumbly. “Now we have a date,” Alex replied quickly. His baritone voice really distracted Iris. And she was just realizing that by now, how attractive Alexander was in person. No wonder they dubbed him The Sexiest Bachelor!Elena was standing beside Iris and she looked forth back between her and this man. “Just say yes, Iris.” This one, Elena whispered loudly to her. Iris was sure that Alex heard what she just said to Iris. Iris forgot that Elena frequently did something foolish in front of handsome people. “Mommy…” Iris forgot Eva was here and saw the adults around here were spewing nonsense. “Ah shoot, I need to go Iris. Please ask Rose about our plan. I need to find the babysitter for her.” Elena took her order, picked up Eva who was still busy eating her cupcakes, and hugged Iris while saying something in Iris’ ear. “Go have a date with him! He’s hella fi
