Semua Bab Billionaire Hidden Rose: Bab 11 - Bab 20

The moment the heavy gates of the mansion swung open, the atmosphere inside the car shifted from passionate to impatient. Felix gripped the steering wheel tighter, his knuckles turning white. He didn’t just park the car; he pulled up to the entrance and stopped abruptly, turning off the engine with a click. His eyes were dark, pupils blown wide with desire, staring intensely at Lia who was still trying to catch her breath, her lips swollen and glistening from their earlier kiss.“Get out,” he commanded softly, but his voice held an absolute authority that made her shiver.Without waiting for her, Felix opened his door and walked around to her side. He opened the door for her, but instead of letting her stand on her own feet, he immediately scooped her up into his arms, bridal style. Lia gasped, instinctively wrapping her arms around his neck, her face burying into the crook of his neck, inhaling his scent that now drove her crazy.“Felix… p-pwede ba… dahan-dahan lang,” she stammered,

Billionaire Hidden RoseChapter 13Time seemed to blur as the morning sun climbed higher, casting golden rays across the spacious room. When everything finally settled, exhaustion finally claimed them both. Lia lay limp in Felix’s arms, her breathing even and deep, her face peaceful as sleep took over. Felix watched her for a moment longer, tracing the line of her jaw with his fingers, his heart overflowing with a love so intense it scared him. Eventually, fatigue won him over too, and his eyes closed, pulling him into a deep, satisfied slumber.Hours later, Lia slowly opened her eyes. The space beside her was warm, but she carefully slipped out of his embrace, not wanting to wake him up. She felt sore all over, and her cheeks still burned whenever she remembered what they had done. She quietly gathered her clothes and dressed, moving like a shadow. Seeing him sleeping so soundly, so relaxed and peaceful, she couldn't help but smile softly."Hayaan ko muna siyang matulog, she thought,

The mansion hummed with a different kind of warmth now, a domestic bliss that settled deep into Lia’s heart. While she was Felix’s love, his partner, and the woman he wanted to build a future with, she hadn’t forgotten her roots. Even with their newfound closeness and Felix’s unwavering devotion, Lia found joy in the simple act of helping out, especially in the kitchen. Today was one such day. Felix had an important business meeting that ran late, so Lia had arrived home earlier. She was busy helping the household staff prepare dinner, humming a tune as she stirred a pot of aromatic soup. She refused to be called "Ma'am" by the other maids, insisting they call her Lia, just as they always had. There was a comfortable camaraderie among them, a bond that reminded her of simpler times. Manang Maria, the elderly head maid whom Lia had grown particularly fond of, was currently on a much-deserved vacation. Lia had gently insisted on it, explaining to Felix that Manang Maria deserved a good

Lia slowly pushed Felix away, her hands resting gently on his chest. Her eyes, however, burned with an intensity that surprised even her. It wasn't just anger at Kiara; it was a deeper, more profound hurt that Kiara's words had ignited. The insecurities she thought she had buried deep down resurfaced, raw and painful. Felix, sensing her shift, tried to pull her back into his embrace, but she subtly resisted. "Lia, baby, don't listen to her," Felix pleaded, his voice soft, filled with concern. "She's just trying to cause trouble. Wala akong ibang gusto kundi ikaw." Lia finally looked at him, her eyes dark and shadowed. "Maybe... maybe tama nga sila," she said, her voice barely a whisper, yet it cut through him like a knife. "Hindi talaga ako nababagay sa'yo, Felix. Hindi ako pwede sa listahan mo, kasi... kasi hindi naman ako eksperto. Baka nga... nagtyatyaga ka lang sa akin." Her words hung in the air, heavy with accusations and self-doubt. Felix recoiled as if struck. He had neve

The ride home from the party was filled with a heavy, suffocating silence. Felix held Lia’s hand tightly, his grip almost painful, his jaw set in a hard line. The moment they stepped inside the mansion, he didn't waste any time. He called his head of security immediately, his voice cold and commanding."Double the security. I want men posted everywhere. And starting tomorrow, Lia will not leave this house unless I say so."Lia looked at him, wide-eyed. "Felix? Ano bang pinagsasabi mo? Paano yung mga meetings? Sasama pa naman ako sayo—""No," Felix cut her off firmly, turning to face her. His eyes were dark, filled with a terrifying resolve. "Hindi ka na sasama sa akin. It's too dangerous, Lia. Rico saw you. He wants you. If you stay with me outside, I can't focus. I'll be too worried about protecting you instead of doing what needs to be done.""But Felix... I want to be with you. I don't want to be left here alone," Lia pleaded, her voice trembling. She hated the idea of being separa
