Lahat ng Kabanata ng HIRED AS A BILLIONAIRE'S WIFE: Kabanata 181 - Kabanata 190

THALIAThe atmosphere inside the cafeteria became intense silence. Eyes were lowered down the floor or avoiding Damon's glare, frozen on their seats, and mute their babbling mouths. The effect of Damon syndrome was indeed scary. Especially now, in front of us, Damon Kane the Great was wearing a frown.I scratch the back of my neck as I'm also uncomfortable having Damon's presence with us.He suddenly pulled the plate of salad from Ralph.“I'll order you some–”“This is what I only need.” He cut my words as he stared at me intently. “I love salad too.”I cleared my throat and avoided his intense glare.Why does he look and sound mad? Did I do something wrong again?He finished the salad in a second. He then turned to me with a blank emotion.“Are you done?”“Yes.”“Get back to work and follow me.” He firmly spoke out.Why does it feel like he's going to punish me?My co-workers comforted me with their worried eyes but still pushed me to follow their demon dragon boss. Everyone seems t

THALIAThat woman again… It's the same woman who visited Damon the other day.She looks the same, wearing a simple pale white below-the-knee dress, and flat sandals, and her black wavy silky hair looks stunning on her. Her simple yet pure appearance makes me feel small. Though she doesn't look sly, she still looks like a campus crush, liked by everyone who sees her gorgeous face, including Damon.I was stunned on the ground, gazing at Damon and the woman. What's her relationship with Damon?My heart pinged in pain when Damon's eyes met mine as soon as he opened the passenger door of his car, helping the woman to get inside.Am I jealous?I felt dragged to the side of the street and noticed my bare feet, with some bruises.I don't know why I couldn't cry in my situation. First, Ryan almost abducted me. Second, I was almost hit by a car. Third… Damon was with another woman.“Thalia?” I didn't notice Damon's presence in front of me before he asked me in concern. “What happened to you? W

THALIAI slowly opened my eyes when I felt something move beside me. The first thing I saw was a hand clutching onto mine. Damon holds me firmly but it also gives me strength to be with him.He's sitting, leaning at the headboard but I couldn't meet his eyes.I remained still, eyes open and naked under the sheets. I stared at our hands intertwined at each other and couldn't help but feel insecure again.Things from this morning were recollected in my head.“I'm sorry if I'm not ready to share it with you.”He suddenly said, causing me to hold my breath for a second. He keeps apologizing… which gives me pain in my chest.I don't know why he needs to apologize for something that he can naturally say to me. What's stopping him from being himself with me?Is it that woman?“Our separation was too painful to reminisce about.” I can feel the pain through his words.Why? Why are you in pain, Damon? What's with her that you cannot forget about her?“I wish to break off my ties to the past… fo

THALIA Even though my heart was pounding frantically because basically, Damon's security minions gathered around outside my unit and the building, I still mustered up my courage to question him.“Is there something wrong at home?”He sighs deeply. “Just come home with me.” He turned his back on me.“No. I'm old enough to go back home by myself or not.”He stopped in his trance, causing me to swallow the lump in my throat. Am I too brave and went overboard in disobeying his words?“Take her.”My eyes went wide when his men in black held both my arms and lifted me in the air.“No!” I kicked in the air while we made our way to the elevator. He's now forcing me to leave my place!I caught a glance of Damon's men, standing at the corner, watching us as if we were making a scene in a movie. Are they just going to stand there and watch?“Hey! Help me, please!”“Don't do anything reckless.” I stopped dangling my legs at my father's cold and firm tone. Is he angry? What did I make him angr

THALIAI almost verge into tears seeing Leander instead of my Dad. They have the same voice when they yell out my name.“L-Leander… help me.” I pursed my lips together to gain his pity. When he massages his temple at what he has seen.He's wearing sweatpants but a naked top, revealing his chiseled chest. His disheveled hair indicates he just woke up.His room is on the other side. But seeing his neck red, I sensed something. Don't tell me he slept in the garden again, devouring his favorite brand of whiskey.He gestured to Brian to put me down, which I'm glad about and apologized to Brian for ruining his hairstyle.“Where do you think you're going? It's damn early and you're causing trouble.” Leander gritted his teeth.“I need to go back to my place.” I simply said.If I say I'm going to Damon, he will scold me as if he's my sole parent.He scoffed and inserted his hands inside his pocket. “The truth.”“I left the iPad plugged in.”“Thalia.” He warned. I firmly shut my eyes in irrit
