บททั้งหมดของ Emily, Mr. Billionaire.: บทที่ 21 - บทที่ 30

Emily and Giovanni arrived at the concert venue, the pulsing beat of the bass drums so loud it could be heard miles away. As they approached the long line wrapping around the block, Giovanni shuddered, contemplating his every decision for the millionth time that night. He looked ridiculous and was in the most ridiculous place ever. Emily took the lead, shouldering their way in after showing the security guards their tickets and gaining access in. The whole atmosphere had a gothic aura to it, the venue. cavernous space with walls adorned with graffiti that seemed to hide secrets of rebellion and anguish. The scent of leather and incense lingered in the air, blending with the faint aroma of anticipation. “You like events like this?” Giovanni had to ask, as he looked around him again, the dim lightening that cast elongated shadows accross the room adding an extra whiff of mystique to the atmosphere. “You enjoy this?” “Yes, yes,” she nodded excitedly, seeming captivated by the sea of

Giovanni scrolled through the page on his phone, clicking his tongue as his eyes roamed through the list of decent and romantic date locations and events. He had gotten August to send him a detailed list of more activities to do with Emily. After all, they still had a couple of dates to go on and anything worth doing was worth doing well. After a couple of minutes of contemplation, he was down to three locations and events- A park, a restaurant and a cinema. Neither of them seemed appealing enough though. They were just better than the other pointless activities in the list. A park? He clicked his tongue at the thought. There wasn’t much to do at parks and on second thoughts, it suddenly felt like a childish place to be. “Out of it,” he mentally crossed out of his list, leaving with with a restaurant and a cinema. “Restaurant?” It was going to be their third date at a restaurant and thanks to Emily showing up in purple for their past two dates at the restaurant, he couldn’t bri

A small smile appeared on Emily’s face as she returned to her seat in the library to meet Giovanni still asleep. His head was now properly rested on the table, his face completely hidden thanks to his postion. Immediately getting on her toes, she tiptoed towards over to her seat and just as she fell into it, careful not to make too much of a sound, he raised his head. “Oh,” she bit her lip realizing she must have been too loud. “You’re awake.” “What do you mean by that?” He stylishly rubbed his eyes as he asked. “I wasn’t asleep.” “What?!” Emily exclaimed in disbelief. “You were asleep! You fell asleep!” “You must be mistaken,” He adjusted his jacket and smoothened his hair with his palm. “I am unable to sleep anywhere that easily. Maybe I closed my eyes for a couple of seconds and you mistook that for me sleeping but you’re wrong. I was not asleep. I was still fully aware of everything going on in my surroundings.”“Oh, yeah?” She smirked. “Do you know when I left here then? Wh

For the millionth time in barely an hour, Emily typed in the words "zoos near me" into the search bar.She had been rephrasing, retyping and researching over and over again, trying to figure out which zoo was going to be perfect for her and Giovanni to go to. Though zoos had always been a place she really wanted to visit, she never made any actual plans for it, the preparation process suddenly feeling more hectic than she could have thought.She was done with her classes for the day and was simply whiling away time before heading home.Other than that, she was stylishly looking around her, hoping she'd see or run into Tyler at least once.He wasn't present in classes the entire day and like that wasn't strange enough, he wasn't replying to any of her messages or calls, leaving her with no choice but to worry about him."Why does it cost so much to enter a zoo?" she hissed to herself as she tapped on another z00 that seemed close by. “Shouldn't it be-“"Have you finally lost your mind?

It was finally the day set for the zoo date and Giovanni couldn’t believe how much of a hurry he was in to finish his work for the day and head over to Emily’s college to pick her up. He was to pick leave his office by 12pm, get to her by 1pm and by 2.30pm, they would be at the zoo. It was a plan he had carefully drafted the day before and in contrast to the plan, he suddenly found himself being extra busy. Despite getting to work exactly 7am, he still had a pile of work to attend to. A pile he couldn’t see himself getting rid of before 12pm.With a groan, he massaged his temples and peered at his laptop screen, his head slowly beginning to ache as a result of staring at screens for so long. He needed a cup of coffee and just as he was about to call for it, the door to his office flew open to reveal August. “You seem busy.” “I am busy,” he replied him, barely sparing him a glance. “Why are you here? I need a cup of coffee so are you here to help me with that?” “That’s not the ac
