Billionaire Story Novels & Stories

Madam Ritz’s mouth dropped open as she stared at the silver card in her hand. “Dustin Crawford?” she wanted to say aloud, but didn’t dare to. Her face paled as her eyes locked onto the name etched into the card. She knew exactly who he was. A close friend had once told her about this man—how he could buy an entire city with just the snap of his fingers. Eighty percent of the world’s banks were under his name. That’s why they called him “The Golden Zillionaire”—the first ever zillionaire in history, with a wealth estimated to be in the 30-digit range. Only a select few knew that truth.

Forbes, Business Insider, the Times, all of them running the same story with slight variations in wording but the same devastating core message. Isla Brennan, my meek mute fiancée who couldn't even speak, had somehow landed Callum Thorne. One of the most powerful men in the city. A self-made billionaire whose net worth made my family's wealth look like pocket change. My phone had been ringing nonstop since the announcement went live an hour ago. Business associates calling to offer surprised congratulations that felt like thinly veiled mockery, their voices carrying that particular tone people use when they're enjoying your misfortune but pretending to be sympathetic.

I muttered. “Strategist,” he corrected. Later, as a random series played in the background, I turned to him. “I saw the company’s stock rose ten percent already.” He let out a long sigh. “Billionaires are twisted people. The moment they think something scandalous is happening, they start throwing money like it’s a sport.” I chuckled. “So you’re saying chaos is profitable?” “Apparently. I just hope it stabilizes soon so I can stop lying to my parents.”

“Forbes’ Youngest Billionaire, Jay Naire, Wins Another Multi-Million Dollar Investment.” My brain froze. I scrolled down. Another headline. “Jay Naire: The Tech Genius Reshaping New York’s Startup Industry.” Another one. “The Billionaire Who Built an Empire Before Thirty.” I slowly lifted my head. “H… he isn’t poor?” Lilly stared at me like I had just asked if the sky was green. “Poor?” “This man could buy half of Manhattan if he wanted.” My stomach dropped. Without thinking, I marched back to him and grabbed the swing to stop it.

"I didn't realize you went for rich billionaires now. Your niche a few years ago was rebellious bad boys with a truckload of trauma behind them." I laughed, still ruffled from the encounter I had a few minutes ago. Grandma started ticking her fingers. "Mommy issues, daddy issues." She grinned. "You name it. You're an expert at this." My grandma could be funny when she wanted to be. "He has a kid, a daughter, and he lives in the wealthiest part of the town. I hear he's a billionaire. I mean, he owns multiple chains of hotels and restaurants and he just bought this restaurant from Mr. Wang."

She took in a deep breath before glancing at me," Your womb got ruptured and there is a probability that you won't be able to birth a child anymore'' she answered, I clenched the gown I had on, as I let the news sink in while staring around in a daze until my eyes were fixed on the TV in front of me “ The Gray corporation stock price has hit its all-time high, CEO Richard amassed a wealth of over a billion dollars overnight, making him the latest billionaire in the Forbes news and that is because he got a mysterious investor, the old shareholders are wailing now and pleading to be taken back, what would you have done if you were in his shoes?”

Instead, she looked straight at the handsome young man in front of her. She knew that Mr. Dickson had a distinguished guest here today, so she came to make friends. Little did she know that it was Damien Wolfe, the heir to the Wolfe family with a net worth of hundreds of billions. She apologized on behalf of her assistant and said, "Mr. Damien, I'm sorry for my assistant's recklessness. I will apologize to you on her behalf." Ciara was wearing a V-neck long dress, and when she lowered her head, the neckline was visible.

Ten hours is all it took and she's now walking a different path that she couldn't recognize. Now, she understood what Julian meant when he told her he wanted to protect her. If people reacted this way of her dining with Shawn, what more if they find out she was dating Julian Fernandez? Billionaire in the country. The Billionaire are the large, conglomerate family-controlled firms of New York characterized by strong ties with government agencies and Julian is the head of Fernandez family, hence the Billionaire title. What made their situation worse was that he's young and eveyone look up to him and his skills just because of that.

“You do not know the pain that seared my soul. I have never felt that way in a long time, but seeing Sarah in front of me, the child of my wife's infidelity, hurt me so much.” This part was very sad but I knew the main tale did not end there. He had not disclosed the entire tale and I was waiting to hear the rest of the story. “But I deviate too much.” He said finally after a long pause. “I went back to Mr Dale and he loaned me some money. I went away for a long time and made good use of the money. When I returned, I returned as a billionaire. I came back to see my benefactor, to show him how much I have made over the years.” He paused and looked at the glass of water next to me.

My eyes widened after I realized where else I’d seen him other than news articles. I cannot be mistaken.

His family owns an airline and jewellery company. The chocolate factory he built is one of the most famous not only in this country but in many countries. How did I end up in his care?
