All Chapters of Date me Mr. billionaire: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

RobertaMy vision blurred completely when everything fell into place. I kept staring at the enormous building in front of me and at all the luxury surrounding it, but I couldn’t bring myself to look at the man standing beside me.I should have apologized and run across the city, back to campus. After all, I was the one who dragged him into this whole mess.“How can someone as smart as I am not notice such obvious things?” A bitter smile crossed my lips as I whispered to myself.“It was a mistake, and I’m clearing it up now.” My heart skipped a beat when I heard his voice.Everything had changed. I wasn’t just looking at an ordinary man I had paid to be my date anymore. Standing next to me was Miguel Carrascal, the most powerful man in the country.I had heard a lot about him in my father’s business conversations. Carrascal Enterprises was a direct competitor of the company where my father was a partner. Heitor always described Miguel as a spoiled heir destined to ruin his own business.

RobertaMy nerves grew tighter with every passing second as the car sped toward the campus. When I stopped to think about what I had just done, I felt like I was on a dangerous roller coaster. But for someone who had slept with the boy who rejected her, faking a relationship didn't seem like such a risky venture.A chill ran down my spine.I couldn't blur the lines here. Miguel and I only had a one-year agreement; when our time was up, it would all be over. I had to be careful not to get too involved.The problem was, my legs trembled every time I looked at him.“In a few days, I'm attending a charity dinner,” he said, his eyes fixed on the road, his beauty so striking I couldn't even blink. “You will go with me and be introduced as my new girlfriend.”“I thought we'd already skipped that part. After all, we're in the newspapers.”“Those are just rumors, but we're going to make this official as soon as possible.”An inevitable wave of fear washed over my body. I glanced at my reflectio

POV MiguelMy heart oddly stirred when I saw Roberta hurt in front of me.I was in a meeting closing a billion-dollar deal when my cell phone kept ringing. I ignored it because I couldn’t afford to be distracted for any reason—besides, the call came from an unknown number.Minutes later, just as I was about to turn off the device, a message popped up with Roberta’s name on it. I stopped everything I was doing and discovered that someone had gravely injured her.To prove it, the stranger who sent the message attached a photo of Roberta with a battered face. I jumped out of my chair and ended the meeting. At other times I would never have done something like that, but keeping Roberta safe would ensure I got my son back, so I would do anything to protect her.Horrified, I looked at her as soon as I found her in the infirmary. I asked who had done that to her face, but Roberta didn’t answer. I dragged her down the corridors, with her murmuring behind me, until we reached the sign for the

The click of the front door closing broke the silence of Miguel’s house.I heard the vehicle’s engine drive away, and a strange chill went up the back of my neck. I was alone in the house of a man I barely knew.I sat on the genuine leather sofa in the living room, which looked like it came out of a magazine, and felt as if I were in my old home, where I lived with my parents for years.I had spent the last few days being assaulted, which, ironically, threw me into the arms of a man whose life was a locked book. Miguel was careful, intense, and, now I knew, rich. A billionaire.The curiosity became insistent, and I started biting my nails, thinking I would go crazy. I got up, ignoring the small alarm sounding in my head, telling me I should stay quiet and well-behaved. But I could not. Not after being abandoned in this house.I began to walk, my bare feet sinking into the thick carpet. The house was not big, or full of lights and designer pieces I could not touch. But it was empty of

While a chilling cold made the hairs on my body stand up, my heart pounded against my ribcage out of pure fear. I curled up, feeling weak and helpless, hugging my legs as I leaned my body against the wall at the entrance of the house, fresh tears welling up in my eyes.I could not even think about getting up, not only because I was almost naked, but because I could not just walk away as if nothing had happened.Gathering the little energy I had left, I thought about getting up and running as fast as I could away from here. If I did that, I was sure I would find help.Lights flashed in my eyes before I could finish the idea. I got up and saw two police officers leaving a patrol car and coming towards me.Did that crazy old woman call the police? My eyes teared up. I should have resisted the idea of having come to this house with Miguel. I should not trust so blindly a mysterious man like him, who abandoned me alone in a house and did not come back to see me.Not only that, but I stood
