The Billionaire's Playdate のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

As I fiddled with my feet, I nibbled my lips. All I could do was stare at Jaxson and his workspace from every angle.I just sat silently in front of him, while he focused his attention on his laptop and papers that I had observed were being signed by him after he read them.I let out a long sigh before leaning slightly on the plush sofa and laying myself down. I'm not sure how many more hours I'll have to wait before the wedding planner arrives, so I'm becoming bored. I'm stuck at Jaxson's office with nothing to do.I took up a newspaper from the small table in front of me and opened it, hoping to find a way to pass the time.This is better for me though, I reckon, than to be with Jaxson's mother again. If the only people I could spend time with inside their mansion were Aunt Elsie and Lovely, it would be even easier for me because they appear to be interesting and good people.I'd also like to get to know Gunther better because he's always around me, but it doesn't seem like it will

After the exhausting planning for our wedding, I find myself alone inside Jaxson's office then again.I'm not sure whether my responses to the wedding coordinator are completely right because I'm not familiar with any of them. I just chose whatever sounds familiar to me. Then I pondered why there were far too tiny food portions and asked if there was a whole meal that could fill the entire plate because the servings that they would give to the guest appeared to be for a taste test only. They were taken aback by what I said and looked at me as if they couldn't believe it, but they pledged to show me other options tomorrow.The wedding design I chose was simply based on what I personally preferred. I'm just not sure if Jaxson will like it as much as I do. But, as he had said, it is up to me to make the decision, so perhaps he will not be upset with those I choose. I can't wait to see how he reacts on the wedding day. The only thing that mattered to him was that we could get through the w

I wasn't expecting Jaxson to be popular not only at his company but also everywhere. And I have officially confirmed it after being met with glances as soon as we walk inside the mall. There were also security guards who approached us and offered Jaxson if he wanted security for safe shopping and lodging in their mall. However, he declined it, as I predicted. I am starting to feel conscious of how people gape at us whenever we pass by them. I'm not sure if it was because they know Jaxson and he is famous, or it’s his appearance and how he shines out in a crowd that they are acting this way. Honestly, I can't even deny that this man is quite attractive. “Wait,” I murmured meekly to the man beside me, who was still grasping my hand and the laptop he had gotten for me in the other. “Am I the only person in this country who doesn't know who you are? How come people know you everywhere? You're not a celebrity, slash a model, slash a chairperson… Are you?” I heard Jaxson's feeble scoff,

“Hey, you'll end up harming your throat if you do that. Bottoms up, this isn't an alcoholic beverage to swallow all at once-” I was interrupted by knocks on the window. I saw a little boy as I turned my head on my left side. The baby girl we met earlier was exactly the same age as this one. Why are we being targeted by children today? When the boy gestured as if begging for food, and rubbing his stomach, my heart was broken into pieces. I shifted my gaze to Jaxson to see his reaction, but he was just staring straight back at the child. I couldn't tell what was on his mind, so I just waited for him to do anything. I searched for any food on the table and found a piece of burger that I haven’t touched yet. I took it in my hands and began to rise from my seat, wanting to give it to the little boy through the back door. Jaxson surprised me when he stood up and began to walk straight to the back door near us because there's also an exit here that is closer to the boy outside. “Hey,” J

[Catt, you are all over the internet. And people are feasting in your name right now. Are you in your unit? I’m coming over after my duty here in DeepBlue.]Ibinalik ko sa messages ang screen mula sa pagkakabukas ng isang article upang mag reply kay Lauren.[I am not in the unit tonight.] I clicked the send button as I began to type another message. [I am going to university tomorrow so you don’t have to come over, Lauren. I’ll explain everything.]“What are you doing?”I shrieked when I heard Jaxson’s voice from behind me.“What are you doing?!” I asked him back as I quickly moved away a bit because Jaxson was just right behind me and his chin was almost sticking to my shoulder.“I'm just looking at what you're doing. Who are you talking to? I didn’t catch a glimpse of it.” He asked me as his eyes were on the laptop that rested on my thigh. “I bought this for you for your studies, why are you just talking to someone? Who is it?”“H-Huh?” I asked him nervously even though I understoo
