Lahat ng Kabanata ng THE BILLIONAIRE'S HIRED GIRLFRIEND: Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

Olivia" Move in with you?" I repeated, staring at him blankly." I'm not forcing you to. I mean, that's your decision to make. I'm not gonna say you have to. " He responded, suddenly looking flushed." But that wasn't stated in the contract, right?" Or was I not just remembering?" It's not. I was just suggesting this, to relief your burden. " He said, offering me a half smile." Relief my burden? Asher what are you talking about? " Did he get drunk before coming here?" Well you see, you can't even spend the $15000 I paid you, on your father. You have to convince him that you're actually working, right? And if you told him that right now, he would want to know where you worked. So I thought, you could just tell him you were going far away to work. If you feel uncomfortable lying to him again, that's fine. I could offer you a job in my father's company. I know you're still trying to get on your feet, so until you get a house, you can stay at my place. It's fine if you're not comfort

Olivia"Olivia! There's no reason for you to do that. It's fine if you want to continue living here. I'm not one of those fathers that put so much pressure on their children to move out. This house is ours." My father rushed his words nervously.He had a look of 'have I done something wrong?'." Yes dad! I know that you do not pressurize me to do anything. I'm moving out for a reason." His eyes dimmed as I said those words." I got a job!" I said in a bored tone.Next, silence followed.A smile threatened to form on his face and it did, light returned to his eyes and his face drained of every nervousness it carried." You....."" Got a job." I said, adding a little emotion to it this time.Now that I thought about it, I wasn't actually lying about getting a job that took me away. I mean, Asher had said he was going to get me a job in Smith's jewelries, right?That wasn't lying. I was just not telling him the entire truth.With this thought in my head, I felt less guilty." Seriously?

AsherWhy did my mother suddenly show up?I thought she said her flight had been delayed until next week?Shit!Shit!I am so not ready for this! Olivia isn't too.We never imagined to be caught off guard."You don't seem like you want me here." My mother said, walking down to where I stood, close to the kitchen island.The clicking of her heels reminded me of her presence, unfortunately.She had a fake frown on her face as she poured herself a drink.What was her reason for coming so early?I managed to pull a smile and gave her a light hug I hopped she didn't notice my alarming heart rate."You know I'm always happy to have you here mother. I'm just……surprised." I said, kissing her hair.She smiled immediately."Yes, I know I had told you that my flight was delayed. Well, I found a way to get myself back here as soon as possible. You know there's no way I'm waiting until our family dinner before seeing your girlfriend, right?" She rose her brows suspiciously at me as she spoke.I r

OliviaAfter informing me of my resumption date, Asher just walked away.What is it with rich people?How could he just tell me that I had been employed into a multi million dollar company, without any interview, and then act like it was nothing?"Of course it's nothing to him, he's Asher Smith. That annoying voice in my head said.The news of my employment was supposed to make the atmosphere even warmer but Sebastian's change of mood ruined everything.And I'm to blame for it all .Speaking of Sebastian…..Asher had said something about not mentioning 'it' to me.What did that mean?Not like I wanted to be unnecessarily inquisitive, I just felt like I needed to know.Sebastian was my friend. Well yes, I regarded him as a friend the moment I saw him. Seeing him in such mood just made me…..cold.Did Mrs Smith possibly have anything to do with this?Curse my forward nature!I should not have asked, just yet. Now that I knew it was something serious, so serious it changed Sebastian's mo

AsherWhy did I have the feeling that my mother had actually influenced this? Well, it didn't matter what she did. I was still going to introduce her as my girlfriend to the public anyway, it's all part of the plan.I tried to concentrate on the remaining work I had but it was just too hard. Images of Sebastian and Olivia kept playing in my head.Of course I knew Sebastian would never try anything shitty with Olivia, I knew that so damn well.It just baffled me how quickly they had gotten along.Was I really that difficult to befriend?Or was I just not trying hard enough?"There's no reason for you to care Asher. She's only the other party in your contract." I reminded myself, rubbing the back of my head.I slammed my laptop close and then returned to my room.To my surprise, Olivia wasn't in the bed.Where was she?I looked around but didn't find her. I checked the toilet, and even the bathroom but she wasn't there.My instincts immediately took my attention to Sebastian's room. "Y
