Alle Kapitel von I Don't Want To Live With A Billionaire: Kapitel 51 – Kapitel 60

I am about to complete my first week working in my new company amidst the crisis in Bobby’s career. I booked a car service this morning as Bobby can't pick me up. He's been working on many things and meeting with various people. He still checks on me regularly and updates me on the things he does.My team lead introduced himself to me as soon as I settled in.“Good morning, Audrey. I’m Trevor,” a nerdy but cute guy greeted me.I expected him to be nerdy but never cute.“Trevor? Wow, I didn’t expect you…,” I held myself from saying something stupid.He waits for me to complete what I was about to say.“I didn’t expect you to be early,” I said.“I come in early so I can leave early too,” he said.“That makes sense. I don’t want to stay longer in the office too,” I said.“So, have you read all the manuals?” he asked. I couldn’t believe he’d start on job related topics early on.“Honestly, I only browsed most of them,” I said.“That’s fine. You won’t understand them now anyway. Yo

I went home with my parents after having lunch at Bobby's parents' house. This is the second time that I won’t be staying with them overnight since I went out with him.We’ve reached another era in our relationship. Since both of us are new in our respective jobs, we agree to focus more on our career for now but still nourish our romantic life together. I find it a bit of fresh air.“Mom's not saying anything but I know she’s sad that you won’t be staying overnight this weekend again,” Bobby said.“Honestly, I don't feel good being there chilling while you're preparing for Monday,” I said.“Even CEOs have their honeymoon stage. It'll be just meeting people on my first day at work for sure,” he said.“I thought we agreed on this already,” I reminded him.“I guess I’m having separation anxiety,” he said.“Stop it. We had a good time today and that’s the most important,” I said.“Alright. If you changed your mind, just call me,” he said.As I watch him leave, I remember that I used

“Aren’t you greeting your former boss? He looks even more handsome in person than in the magazine cover,” Trevor said.I’m too mesmerized to answer. More than his looks tonight, I am stunned to see Quim with Rocio for the second time. Perhaps, the power couple is getting serious.“He really deserved to be in the cover of that magazine,” he continued.I discreetly gazed at Quim and agreed with Trevor silently.“But Bobby might be in the cover soon,” he said.“You knew?” I asked.Trevor nodded. “It’s already known in the industry. Matters like that spread quickly,” he said referring to Bobby becoming a CEO.“Well, as for gracing the cover of the magazine, I haven’t heard about it,” I said.I saw a man waving at Trevor. This is a sea of corporate top people and I feel so intimidated. Even Trevor knows a lot of them and they know him too.“Hey, would like to meet my father?” he asked.“That would be nice but I’m a little intimidated,” I said.“Don't worry. He’s a good guy,” he said.

The news of Quim’s company shutting down in two months has been announced. “It’s a good thing that you and Bobby left that company before it shuts down. Smart decision. You’re a smart girl,” Dad said.“Don’t you think things would've been different if Bobby stayed?” Mom asked.“Bobby is a smart boy but he’s not the one making the final decision. Apparently, the main man isn’t smart enough. He just has money and a big ego,” he said.“Dad, that’s too harsh. You haven’t met the person,” I said.As much as I want to defend Quim, I know Dad has already made up his mind about him. He’s in Bobby’s team no matter what happens.“Bobby’s calling you. Get it now,” he said.I went outside to accept the call. Days and perhaps weeks with very minimal conversations with Bobby made me miss him. “How’s work?” he asked.“I’m getting the hang of it,” I said.“Does that boy helping you?” he asked like an old man by referring to Trevor as a boy.“You mean Trevor? Yes. He’s a great help,” I said

My days have become so much different from what they used to be not so long ago. Days with less Bobby means more time to focus on my job. It’s so liberating to have a career that fulfills me no matter how low I started it from.“Audrey, come down. Bella’s here,” Mom called me just after I logged in for the day.I have a meeting in ten minutes but I have to see Bella. I've got to see her no matter what.“Hello, Audrey,” she greeted me. I was surprised to see a radiant Bella standing infront of me. I got ashamed of myself for looking so plain. How come she looks so pretty after the turmoil she went through?“You look great,” I told her.“You too. There’s something different about you. Whatever is it, it’s doing you good,” she told me.“I’m glad to see you. I wish we could talk now but I have a meeting,” I said.“You really are a working girl now,” she said.“I am. I started again and I believe I’m doing good. I'm enjoying it,” I said.“When are you free to talk?” she asked.“I
