All Chapters of The Billionaire Who Chose Me: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Amelia had always believed that the worst moments in life came with warning signs.A missed paycheck.A bad medical report.A phone call that made your hands shake.She thought people had time to prepare themselves before their world changed.She was wrong.Sometimes, life waited until you were already exhausted.Then it pushed you one step further.___________________________________________________________________________________By the time Amelia reached her apartment building, the rain had soaked through her coat.The old building stood between two newer skyscrapers, almost forgotten by the city surrounding it.The elevator had been broken for three days, so she climbed four flights of stairs.Again.She had lost count of how many times she had carried grocery bags, laundry baskets, and exhaustion up those stairs.When she finally reached her door, she stood there for a moment.She didn't know why she hesitated.Maybe because she needed a few seconds to put her worries away befor

Amelia didn't touch the contract.She stared at the papers sitting between them like they were something dangerous.Because they were.Not because of what was written on the pages.Because of who had placed them there.Alexander Kingston.A man she knew nothing about.A man who had watched her in a parking garage and then summoned somehow knew everything about her.A man who had watched her in a parking garage and then summoned her to his office the next day.Nothing about this situation felt normal."I think there has been a misunderstanding," Amelia said carefully.Alexander leaned back in his chair."Explain.""I applied for a job.""You are being offered one.""No."Her voice became firmer."I mean a normal job."For the first time, a slight change appeared in his expression.Not anger.More like curiosity."What makes you think this isn't normal?"Amelia looked around his office.The expensive furniture.The city view.The silent employees outside the glass walls.Then she looked

Amelia stared at the thick folder resting on her new desk.She had expected her first day at Kingston Holdings to be overwhelming.She had not expected Alexander Kingston to hand her nearly three hundred pages of financial reports before nine-thirty in the morning.She looked toward his office.The glass walls reflected the morning sunlight, making it impossible to see him clearly."Well," she murmured to herself, "this is one way to welcome someone."Taking a deep breath, she opened the first report.The numbers were intimidating, but not unfamiliar.During the years she had helped her uncle manage his small grocery store, she had learned that numbers always told a story. Most people only looked at profits.Amelia searched for mistakes.Time slowly disappeared.The office around her remained surprisingly quiet.Employees walked confidently through the hallways, carrying folders and tablets. Nobody chatted. Nobody wasted time.Kingston Holdings felt less like a company and more like a

The drive back to Kingston Holdings was unusually quiet.Amelia sat beside the window of the company car, watching New York's afternoon traffic pass by.Her fingers gently brushed against the sleeve of the navy-blue blouse Alexander had insisted she wear.It fit perfectly.Too perfectly.She wondered if the company really kept spare clothing in every size.Somehow...She doubted it.She stole a glance at Alexander, who sat across from her reviewing documents on his tablet.He looked completely focused.As if buying her an expensive blouse had been nothing more than another item on his schedule.She looked back outside."Thank you."Alexander didn't lift his eyes from the screen."For what?""The blouse.""It solved a problem.""You could've just let me go home.""You still had work."She smiled faintly."You always answer like a businessman.""And you expected?""I don't know..."She looked down."...Maybe 'you're welcome.'"For the first time that afternoon, Alexander looked up.Thei

The following morning, Amelia walked into Kingston Holdings carrying two paper coffee cups instead of one.The receptionist smiled as soon as she saw her."Good morning, Miss Carter.""Good morning."The receptionist looked at the extra cup."Meeting someone?"Amelia smiled sheepishly."I don't know if he'll even drink it.""The boss?"She nodded."I've noticed he skips breakfast almost every day."The receptionist laughed."Good luck convincing him.""I'll need it."When Amelia reached the executive floor, Victoria immediately noticed the coffees."One of those isn't for you.""No.""You bought Mr. Kingston coffee?"Amelia nodded."He works too much."Victoria stared at her before shaking her head with a smile."You're either incredibly brave...""...or completely unaware of who you're dealing with.""Maybe both."Victoria laughed."I like that answer."At exactly eight o'clock, Alexander stepped out of his office.His gaze immediately landed on Amelia."Good morning.""Good morning.
