All Chapters of Faking Forever With The Billionaire : Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

"I'm Ben by the way."The young man smiled smugly, his fingers drumming against the white tablecloth before he reached into his coat pocket and pulled out a folded document. He unfolded it slowly, laying it flat on the table like he’d just won a game he never gave her a chance to play.“I’ve already sent the wedding gifts to your mother,” he said, smiling with satisfaction. “This lunch is just to seal the deal. You know, so we can get to know each other a little more before setting the date.”Alina’s grip tightened around the cold water glass. Her eyes flicked to Susan, who offered her a forced tight-lipped smile. A laugh bubbled up in Alina’s throat...was this a joke? Had she stepped into some twisted alternate reality? "I told you before, didn’t I?" Susan said sweetly, her tone dripping with fake concern. "Your father asked me to grant him this one wish. I’ve done everything I could for you, and this is the last thing left. The last wish he spoke about. For you to get married."Ali

Ben sat on the sidewalk outside the restaurant, still in shock. His chest felt heavy, and he couldn’t stop hearing those awful words: "You’re doomed." They echoed in his head like a bad music.He hadn’t even wiped his face properly when a young waiter stepped out of the restaurant and walked over to him."Excuse me, sir," the waiter said politely. "Are you Mr. Wilson?"Ben raised his head slowly, swallowing the lump in his throat. He stood up sluggishly, wiped his face with the back of his hand, then nodded like someone who had just lost everything."Yes... I’m Ben Wilson."The waiter offered a faint, sympathetic smile. “Please come inside. They’re waiting for you.”Ben blinked. "Waiting for me?" His voice was hoarse. "Why?"But the waiter didn’t answer that part. Instead, he turned and began walking, expecting Ben to follow.Ben paused for a moment, then followed behind, dragging his feet. He now held his phone, its cracked screen black and lifeless.As they walked through the hallwa

Alina sat curled up beside Aiden on the couch, smiling softly. All she could focus on was him, especially since his eyes hadn’t left her face since she walked in.She let out a small breath, gently brushing her fingers over his hand.“I don’t even know where to start. But honestly, it was kind of funny,” she said softly.“Funny?”“You should have seen me begging Mr. Wilson to leave me alone. If he hadn’t been so stubborn, maybe it wouldn’t have ended the way it did,” she muttered.Aiden’s lips twitched into a small smile, but his head tilted slightly, eyes narrowing. “Can you just tell me everything? How did your stepmother even get the nerve to try setting you up with another man?”Alina’s smile widened at the sight of his anger on her behalf. She told him everything, leaving out nothing, including how Jesse showed up just in time.She paused, her fingers toying with the hem of her blouse."Thank you," she said finally, eyes meeting his. "For everything. For coming for me without eve

Aiden sat at his desk, but he couldn’t focus on the files in front of him. He had read the same sentence three times without understanding any of it. The ticking clock on the wall sounded louder than usual. He rolled his pen between his fingers until it fell onto the table. He stood up, walked to the window, looked outside, then turned and sat down again. Then he stood up once more. Across from him, Gavin was lounging on the leather couch, watching him with an amused look. "You’re restless," Gavin said, folding his arms. "Is it because of Alina?" Aiden shot him a quick look but didn’t reply. Gavin smirked. "Of course it would be... You're such a lover boy. " He chuckled but Aiden glared at him. "Well, I brought her here. She came to the mansion this morning, and Grandma told me to bring her. You’ve been checking that clock every minute." "I’m just checking on the interview process, it should be over by now." Aiden muttered, adjusting the cuff of his shirt even though it did

Alina gently pulled away from the kiss, resting her forehead against Aiden’s as they caught their breath."I should go now," she whispered, brushing her nose lightly against his. "If I stay any longer, people might start talking. You know how it goes—‘What’s the new employee doing alone with the boss for over twenty minutes?’” She laughed playfully.Aiden chuckled, his hands still on her waist. "Let them think what they want. I’m the boss, I make the rules.""But I care," Alina said softly, stepping out of his arms. "At least for now, we have to keep things professional. I worked hard to get this job, and I don’t want people thinking I got here by flirting with the boss.""Okay... I’ll be more careful," he said, and she smiled at him."So what now?" he asked, still holding her hand."I promised Lorraine I’d stay over for a while," she said as she slipped off the desk. "If I go now, I can come home early. And besides, she’s already been teasing me about disappearing too often."Aiden g
