The Hidden Billionaire

Today marked the three month anniversary from the date when I slowly started to revealed myself to my company. Although I had been running my company for over four years now, none of my employees- apart from my secretory Joseph, the council and my team of bodyguards knew who I was. At first I did not know why my parents would keep me hidden, and it was written in their will that my identity was to be revealed to the public at my eighteenth birthday. But looking back these couple of months, I knew why they did that. It was utterly stupid on my behalf to start showing my face to my employees from my seventeenth birthday. I had taken into account of the advice from my council as these were my most trustworthy men - some of whom are at least thrice my age. I did not expect it to lead to this problem that I was currently facing. However that did not deter my respect for them in any shape or form. They were trusted by my parents, and hence myself. I sighed as I looked out from the windo

If someone had told me three months ago that I would have to leave London for my safety - I would have laughed. I was running away like a coward with my tail between my legs, instead of solving my problems. I didn't what was more insulting, the fact that I was the richest person in the world and couldn't solve a dispute. Or the fact that I was going to be attending High school in America when I have already graduated High school and have a Business and Computer science PhD. Looking at the preppy building in front of me, I could only hope that this will be enough to keep me safe until the threat subsided. I looked towards my left where Robert was driving toward the front entrance of the prestigious Lakeview Academy- my home for the next nine months. I sighed as I faced the front again taking into the vast fields that spanned the property, a football game that was in progress and the crowd going wild. "I don't understand why I have to attend High school when I have already learnt e

When I joined this elite school two days ago, my plan was to stay low under radar, until Robert found out who was threatening me so we can deal with the problem. Now looking at my business class which has all of my group and the Royal elites, I could only smell disaster. "Settle down children, today we have a new student". I waited by his desk as the class quietens down and rests their eyes on me. "Introduce yourself child", Mr Smith says softly. He was in his late thirty to early forties and by the permanent laughter lines on his face, anyone could tell he was a happy soul. I turn to address the class in front of me and speak monotonously. "Avalon Gracia" "Uh- do you want to add to that?", Mr Smith asked hesitantly. "I'm seventeen". He sighs. There were different expressions that rose through the class and one kid opened his mouth. "I just googled 'sexy' and a picture of you came up", he winks at me with a smirk whilst his friends whoop in the background. I wait for the

I was laying across Aspens bed in her room while trying to get at least some work done before the girls helped me get ready for the party. According to them my outfit that I had chosen was unacceptable. I was wearing a hoodie with skinny ripped jeans- I wanted to be comfortable. It wasn't like I didn't know what was to be expected at a Highschool party, I just wasn't planning on staying for long. A quick drop in, show my face and come right back out. But clearly that wasn't going to happen. They were running around Aspen's room like they were on fire, pulling at each other's hair, curling it, wearing make-up etc. There was at least three hours to go before we had to leave at nine pm. "What dress are you wearing?", I looked up from my phone to find Harper staring down at me in concentration. "Uhhh" "You haven't chosen one yet?" I gave her a sheepish smile. She lunges for my arm before shoving me into the closet where Aspen's dresses were. "Asp, Ava's going to borrow one of yo

When I thought back to Saturday, I hadn't realised that I should've asked Elijah what happened on Friday at the party. I hadn't. So when people stared at me with knowing eyes on Sunday evening, I had thought that there was something on my shirt. But then someone showed me the video. The video of me sucking Elijah's thumb. Holy fuck. Needless to say I immediately ran to my room and deleted the video from social media using my laptop. I was lucky in the fact that the video was taken at such a poor quality, and that my face was hidden but it was clear enough that my features were. If the person threatening me found out, it would only be a matter of time before they tracked my location. I sighed at my laptop in front of me and lift my head. There weren't many people in the library from what I can see. I was sat in a corner with my work sprawled around me. It was my free period and I was using it to look over the monthly revenues for my business. I was so concentrated into my work that I
