Lahat ng Kabanata ng Faking Forever With The Billionaire : Kabanata 71 - Kabanata 80

Alina stood in front of Lorraine’s door, her brows furrowed and a deep frown on her face. She was clearly still upset."That jerk," she muttered under her breath and angrily stomped her foot on the floor. She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself, then entered the passcode and pushed the door open.As soon as she stepped inside, she saw Lorraine lying on the couch, clearly bored out of her mind. It looked like she hadn’t moved all day.Lorraine’s face lit up the moment she saw her. She jumped up and ran over, pulling Alina into a tight hug.“I was so bored without you!” Lorraine whined, pretending to cry.Alina gave a small laugh and hugged her back, though her mind was clearly elsewhere.Lorraine pulled away and plopped back onto the couch. “What took you so long? And why do you look like you want to slap someone?”Alina let out a tired sigh. "It’s Kelvin. You won’t believe what happened. I was already at your place when he suddenly showed up, dragged me into his car, and drove

Mike returned a short while later, walking into the living room with a calm look on his face.“She’s been discharged,” he said. “Someone already picked her up. I saw her get into the car myself.”Zayn let out a breath he didn’t realize he’d been holding. He felt a wave of relief but quickly covered it up by leaning back and nodding.“Alright. You’re dismissed.”Mike nodded and left, leaving Zayn alone again.Zayn picked up his phone, walked slowly into his room, and collapsed onto the bed. He stared up at the ceiling, his mind racing back to the moment he had almost hit her.He didn’t like admitting it, but in that instant, he had panicked."What if it was serious?" had been the first thought in his mind. It had terrified him."Stupid girl,"he muttered, turning on his side and gripping his pillow. "Why’d you try to cross on your own when you can't?"But even with all his internal scolding, he knew she had once been the girl he liked. Bright, reckless, stubborn...but charming in a way

Alina had woken up at exactly 5 a.m. It wasn’t hard for her as itt had become a habit over the years. When she lived with Kelvin, she always woke up early to make breakfast before he got out of bed. It had become a routine.But now, things were different. She wasn’t doing it out of pressure of satisfying Kelvin. She actually wanted to do it for Aiden.She moved quietly around the kitchen, making his favorite food. The house was still and the sky outside was dark, but she liked the calm.When she finished, she wiped her hands and looked at the clock. It was almost 7 a.m., so she quickly went to her room to get ready.….Meanwhile, Aiden stepped out of his room, still holding his phone, reading the message from Jesse.He smirked to himself but didn’t reply. Just as he slid his phone into his pocket, he heard the soft clink of cutlery from the dining room.He walked in and found Alina already seated, dressed and eating."You're in a hurry?" he asked, walking over."I need to get to work

Aiden’s expression was unreadable as he stared at Gavin. Nothing about his voice was soft when he finally spoke."Don’t worry about Michelle," he said, slipping his hands into his pockets and turning toward the glass wall to stare outside. "If she wants to come back, let her. I’m not stopping her. But I’m married now."Gavin leaned against the wall, arms folded. "That’s not what I meant. You know she really—""I know," Aiden cut in, his tone calm. "I know she loves me, Gavin. But there’s never been anything real between us. That’s why there was never a scandal. We couldn’t even hold hands, not in public, not even in private. So tell me... why should I throw away my happiness for someone I can’t even be close to?"Gavin watched him quietly. Aiden’s voice wasn’t raised, but every word came with clear conviction.“Alright,” Gavin said, nodding slowly. “I thought you liked her… but okay.”“I did, at one point. I even thought about telling her... but then what? Start a relationship with so

Alina didn’t take her eyes off Aiden as she stretched her arms and gave a small, tired chuckle. “After hours of just sitting around doing nothing, Charlotte finally gave me some work. But then she kept handing me more, saying I didn’t do them right.”Aiden glanced around, and his eyes landed on the stack of folders beside her. He walked over and picked one up. “How many did she give you?”“I lost count,” Alina said with a sigh. “At first, I thought I was doing something wrong… but now I know she’s just messing with me.”Aiden’s jaw tensed as he flipped through one of the folders. “Why didn’t you tell me?” “Well, I thought maybe if I just did what she wanted, it would stop.”Aiden turned to Jesse, who simply shrugged. “I’ve been busy all day. I had no idea.”Aiden looked back at the folder, his frown deepening.“These designs are excellent.”She gave a tired smile. "Not good enough for Charlotte, apparently."Without another word, Aiden moved to the desk and began gathering all the
