The Billionaire's Playmate (ENGLISH) のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

I turned to him as he spoke again."I'm going to the market, sir, to buy groceries. Our food supplies are running low, and Manang was supposed to come with me, but she had to go to the city hall for something you asked her."Would he stay here later? For dinner maybe? There's a drinking session there in Klari's birthday, for sure. Suddenly, I had a question for Rozzean."Are you eating dinner here, sir?""Yes, why?" he asked. Oh... he answered fast."Because a pretty woman invited you. She's the one Manang mentioned, our neighbor, who seems to like you. She's beautiful, right?" I don't know what gotten into me that I've said those words maybe I wanted to here more of his opinion about his beautiful neighbor.Rozzean didn't say anything; he just looked at me, slightly raising his eyebrow. His gaze made me feel a bit embarrassed."I'm eating here, Tali. I won't be going out. You can prepare dinner later," he finally said and passed by me to go upstairs.So... he's not going? I started t

I stayed inside the room until Rozzean finished his meal. He told me to wait so I wouldn't have to go here again to get his dishes. Well that’s him being considerate. I mean, his room was on third floor. As I observed him eating, every little movement he made seemed perfect in my eyes. So... this is what it feels like when you like someone? He is the first man I've laid my eyes on, so I didn't really know. When Rozzean finished his meal, I went downstairs and cleaned the kitchen, but my thoughts were still occupied by him. "I will confess. I will tell Rozzean that I like him. After that, I will return home to talk to Daddy. I won't complete the two months that I promised." The next day, I woke up early, prepared breakfast, and cleaned the garden. I didn't have the pool cleaned by Manang because I did it myself. I wiped the tiles, arranged some furniture in the living room, and provided breakfast to the guards outside. "How hardworking you are, Tali. Is there something happening?"

Rozzean Cyron's POV Part IIWhen I was young, I had a nanny. Her name was Nanay Sol. She raised me and gave me the love I didn't feel from my real parents. She took care of me as if I were her own child. I was so happy when she was my nanny, but my dad kicked Nanay Sol out of our house for a simple reason.She was accused of breaking a vase that my dad had bought at an auction. I still remember how I cried when I saw Nanay Sol leave our house. She was the only person who truly cared for me.Later on, my dad found out that it was Luther who had broken the vase. I was so angry that I punched Luther. We fought, and what I'll never forget is how my dad pushed me to see the injured face of his adopted child."Why am I reminiscing about the past now?"I returned to my work. I finished reading and signing the papers piled up on my desk.Time passed quickly at my company, and my condition worsened. After all the meetings, I returned to my office and lay down on the long sofa.I felt the need

How did my womanizer friend with high standards for women notice my maid?Furthermore, while we were eating, he didn't take his eyes off Tali, whom I found irritating. Has his taste in women changed?"Rozz, can I borrow your maid for three days? Looks like I want—"What the fck? That shocked my being but I didn't show it. I acted the same."No.""Even for a day, bud? I'll just cook at home—""I said no, Maki. Why are you so persistent today?" I asked, irritated. He really pushed my patience. Did he notice something?"I need Tali here in my house."Maki smiled at me."So her name is Tali," I gave him a sharp look, "Tali, if Rozzean fires you, tell me immediately, okay? I'm willing to take in a maid even if I'm not looking. I wanted a cute maid who can cook delicious food. A maid like you—""Maki," I warned.I don't care if we're friends. I know him; he's a womanizer, he plays with women. He better not try to take what's mine because I'm not afraid to lose a friend."Ohh... Rozz, isn't

"Tali, you've been standing there for a while now, huh?"I closed my eyes tightly before turning to Manang. I shut the door and approached her. While we walked to the kitchen, I bit my lower lip in frustration.Respect your feelings? Damn you, Rozzean. Not even a day after you confessed that you like me, and now you're going with that orange girl? What? Because I didn't admit that I like you too? Is your ego so fragile that you can't accept that I didn’t give you the answer that you want?Damn it, I just wanted him to wait, to give me some time. I'm also caught in this situation because I like him too.But I don't want to confess as Tali. I want him to know my feelings as Thaliana. Honestly, this is painful for me. Rozzean likes the fake image I created.But it’s here and I need to face the consequences."It seems like sir and Klari are getting along well. At least, Klari's waiting is worth it.”I glanced at Manang when she said that.I approached the fridge and took a bottled water.
