All Chapters of BILLIONAIRE'S PLUS-SIZE OBSESSION : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

LEO’S POV Finally home. I pulled up slowly into my garage and got out of the car. My legs ached, and my back was stiff. My brain was filled with projects, meetings, schedules, but what I really wanted to think about was her. I closed my eyes and tried to picture her. My heart started racing so hard. Maybe because I didn't know how she would react. I should’ve told her before leaving. It's 8 p.m. at night. I left her all alone since morning. I sighed and pressed my fingerprint for the security scan. The door opened, and I stepped in. “Welcome back, boss.” KC’s voice announced. “Thanks, KC,” I replied and stared around the house. The house was quiet, which made me even more nervous. Didn’t she have fun? What am I saying? I held someone against their will and expect her to have fun? I made my way up the stairs, loosened my tie, and pulled off my suit jacket. Getting to the room, I quietly pushed the door open and peeked inside. She was curled up on the bed,

CHARLOTTE’S POV My stomach woke up before I did. I cracked my eyes open, feeling groggy and mildly confused. I am still in this hell paradise? So it wasn't a dream. I cursed inwardly and sat up. A blanket was tucked around me neatly. I don’t remember sleeping with a blanket but waved it off. I glanced at my phone screen. It was late at night. “I still can’t believe what’s happening. Locked up in this place—this is no longer funny.” I slid out of bed and padded barefoot to the window. Outside, the view was unreal. A thousand glittering lights scattered across the skyline and the water. I sighed, palms pressed to the cold glass. How on earth am I going to escape this place? The ache in my belly reminded me I hadn’t eaten anything since breakfast. I decided to go to the kitchen and have a look. Maybe I can get something to eat. The automated lights flicked on as soon as I stepped in. I opened the fridge and was surprised at how full it was. “Oh, you’re awa

I never thought eating dinner with someone could be this… weirdly warm. We didn’t say much at first, and normally that would drive me crazy, but somehow, the silence wasn’t awkward. Leo, I can tell, wasn’t much of a talker. Mr. Mysterious. He had chosen to sit adjacent to me rather than across—for his own reasons. His gaze was fixed on the food for a while; I had no idea what was going on in his mind as he stared at the food. However, when his side dimple flashed, I was relieved it was all good. He took a bite. I held my breath. Please don’t spit it out. He chewed slowly, then paused. His eyes met mine. “Wow,” he said, sitting up straighter. “This is actually… really good.” I blinked, caught off guard. “Really? You’re not just saying that to be polite?” He shook his head slowly, chewing thoughtfully. “No. It’s really good. The fish is soft, flavorful. Rice… fluffy. You seasoned everything just right.” My cheeks burned a little. I tried to hide my smile behind a spoonful

“Hear me out, Char....you’re beautiful, Charlotte. I like my women chubby. Don’t leave. Stay with me a little longer.” That was all my mind playing tricks on me. Leo didn't say a word… instead, he let go of my hand, gently, awkwardly. His eyes shifted away like he didn’t know what to do next. It was fine. It was okay. I mean—what did I expect? A confession? A romantic moment? Of course, none of that would happen, and it’s okay. “I’ll go get ready for the acting practice,” I said softly, trying to sound composed. I picked up the empty plates to fill the awkward silence that followed. He nodded with a quiet smile, polite. I walked away immediately before my overthinking could burst into tears. In the kitchen, I slid the plates into the dishwasher, trying not to make a sound. “Did you enjoy your dinner time with Boss, ma’am?” KC’s voice rang out cheerily, startling me so bad I nearly dropped a plate. “Jesus—KC!” I hissed, hand on my chest. “My apologies, ma’am. That was not my

She walked a few steps across the room, barefoot, as she flipped through the pages of the script. I waited impatiently. Then she turned to me.“Can you read with me, please?”That came out a bit shaky.She cleared her throat.“Can you read with me, please?”I blinked.“Me?”“Just the male lead lines,” she said, trying to steady her voice. “Don’t need to act. Just read. I need to hear it,so I can reply to the lines".I nodded and took the pages from her outstretched hand.My fingers brushed hers, then she stepped back, raised her chin slightly, and began.“So my character is Gina, she is the female lead. She had a misunderstanding with her boyfriend,Ken and this is the confrontational scene. It will be short. So to start ,call action for me.”I nodded."Action!"And suddenly, she was someone else. “You cheated on me, and you didn’t even think about my own feelings. I waited for you to come and say you were wrong. But you never did!”That was so real I felt attacked, and man, I have
