"What the hell are you talking about?" Joanna questioned with a frown on her face. "I do not want you to ruin this moment with one of your lies."Travis chuckled bitterly and looked at her. "Why? You think you're so special? Who the hell are you that would make Robert Pattinson want to speak with you?"Joanna blinked, realizing that was definitely right."The friend I went to have a drink with was Aiden Pattinson. He was my mate and best friend in high school. We even went to the same college. I cut ties with him a long time ago but for you, I mended it." Travis informed.Joanna, her mom, and sis spared a glance at each other.And Ashley said, "I just feel like you're speaking a language that I don't understand.""That's because you're dumb." Travis dismissed her and looked at Joanna. "He owed me a favor in the past so when I talked to him about the issues with Bloom construction, he said he was gonna talk to his father for me. I made sure to tell him that the only person they will be

Joanna and Travis finally arrived at Oak villa.Joanna tried very hard to suppress her curiosity as she followed Travis and entered the villa. At first glance, the villa was a few times superior to what her family owned with a bigger area and more luxurious furnishing. There was even an indoor swimming pool. Wow!She was astonished by everything. More amazed by the fact that Travis, her husband, had such a connection. Then she saw a man, a woman, and a younger man standing there with smiles on their faces like they were giving them some kind of ovation.As they got to them, Mr. Pattinson walked toward Travis with a broad smile. "Wow, is this you, Travis?! Look at you all grown up!"Travis just gave him a smile."I heard the news about …""We should talk privately on that matter." Travis interrupted him since he knew what he was about to say.Mr. Pattinson nodded with a smile. "Of course. Let's take a seat outdoors here and let's discuss business.""Do any of you want anything? Beer?"

Alison and Sharon desperately winked their eyes but they definitely did not see wrongly. They were indeed Joanna and Travis.Joanna was shocked as well as she didn't expect Alison's arrival, especially that betrayal of a personal assistant called Sharon.Then Mr. Pattinson said, "Alison, is it? We are having an important discussion. You only have five minutes so tell me what you came here for?"Alison regained her composure after a while.Perhaps she has limited capability, hence, she got nervous after encountering such an unexpected situation.While stuttering she said, "Pa..Mr. Pattinson, sir. Yes, I'm the general manager of the Bloom construction subsidiary in City…""Straight to the point, please." Mr. Pattinson interrupted.After gulping hard, Alison said, "I'd like to invite you, sir, to renew the contract with Bloom Constructions. I'll try my best to fulfill any terms and conditions as per your request."Sharon knew it was gonna become difficult after Alison's statement."Ha ha

As Travis and Joanna left the Oak villa, Joanna was still in shock that Travis had connections to such wealthy and influential people.Joanna asked as she couldn't stop herself, "Travis, I can't believe you're friends with the Pattinsons. I had no idea that you had these kinds of connections. Why didn't you ever tell me before?"Travis looked at her with a small smile, "I didn't want to make a big deal out of it. And honestly, it doesn't matter to me who someone is or how much money they have."Joanna was conflicted. On one hand, she was amazed by Travis's connections and the opportunities they could bring. But on the other hand, she still harbored resentment towards him for not being wealthy himself.Joanna huffed. "I still can't believe you never told me. And I can't stand the fact that I married someone who isn't as successful as me. My family is never going to accept you when I succeed in going back."Travis sighed knowing she was right. "I know I can't change the past or my life

Travis smiled at what Joanna said and he replied, "Be patient, I'll definitely help you get ten percent of the company shares and the position of general manager."Joanna said with her eyes sparkling. "Really? And I also need the subsidiary company in City North. I want it back. Can you make that happen?"Travis nodded. "Of course. Madame Emma will have no choice at all."Seeing Travis being endowed with intellect and confidence in handling matters, the gloominess that has lingered inside Joanna started to slowly dissipate.She smiled and looked away, still finding it unbelievable that she was about to go back to her comfort life – all thanks to Travis.All the good news she has received for the day alone calmed her completely. It was like a heavy burden was lifted off her.Swiftly, they arrived at the hospital.However, Travis seems to have judged wrongly.Alison and her father did not come to apologize genuinely. As Joanna and Travis arrived at the ward, they could hear James' arrog
Billionaire in Disguise Seventeen
Madame Emma frowned and interrogated, "James, Alison, have you apologized like I told you to and reinstated the family?"Alison nodded and said, "We did. Daddy and I had apologized sincerely and even almost kneeled before them, but they're been so arrogant! They refused to let us off the hook!"Madame Emma looked at Joanna and then at Travis. She placed her hand on her forehead exhaustedly, wondering what was wrong with her son and his daughter.Do they not care about the family's problems and status? And here, once again, Alison was lying just like she lied in the past about Joanna and now she expects her to believe? Even in the past, she knew Alison and her father were lying, she wanted Alice and her daughters out of her house because she never approved of Alice to the family.Well, like father, like daughter, right?She looked at James and –SLAP!James was shocked as his mother's hand landed on his face."Bastard!" She screamed at him. "You're supposed to be the adult around here
Billionaire in Disguise Eighteen
Madame Alice left the hospital leaving only Joanna and Travis sitting on separate chairs in front of their daughter's bed.Joanna sighed for the umpteenth time, it became so obvious that she was in deep thought. She shook her head with a scoff escaping her, "I still can't believe this is really happening. I still feel like I'm dreaming."Travis lowered his gaze and looked at her. "Well, it's not. Except we are both dreaming the same thing which is not possible, right?"Joanna nodded in agreement. "Indeed, it's not possible. You amazed me today, to be honest, Travis. I feel like everything wouldn't have happened because of you.""Well, I owe you, right?""I should probably just take it as your obligation. You're lucky you didn't turn out completely useless." She said, shaking her head. "I'm the one who's gonna pay for all the debts anyway. This VIP ward, money for the bone marrow, and the hospital bills."Travis sighed and looked away from her. "Whether you believe it or not, you won'

Travis stood up and walked out of the room in shock and he asked quietly, "How the hell do you get my number?""I have my ways, Travis. Anyways, news went around like wildfire that you've signed the succession contract, is that right?" Bianca asked."And what's that to you?" Travis questioned."I thought you left and you're never coming back. You should have just stayed lost and stayed to your principles that you're never coming back or taking your inheritance. I thought that was the plan."Travis shrugged. "Well, plans have changed. I never even needed to sign a succession contract before I took what belongs to me. It was all mine from the beginning."The line was quiet for a while then Bianca sighed. "Wow, is that so? You're no longer angry at your father?! You should have just stayed angry instead of coming back and ruining everything. I thought you didn't want it." Travis hung the call up in anger, his teeth gritted and his fists tightened. He couldn't believe that the overall la

Travis’s sneer deepened as he cocked his head, scrutinizing the expression etched across Larry Roberts’ face. “Ah, I see the wheels turning in your head. Planning your revenge, are you? Plotting how you’ll come back and wreak havoc on my family once you're released from jail for causing public disturbances.”Larry's shock was evident as he looked up at Travis, his eyes widened in horror, yet he vehemently denied any such thoughts. “What?! No, no, I wouldn’t dream of such a thing…”With a disdainful scoff, Travis fixed him with a piercing glare. “Whether you admit it or not is inconsequential. But rest assured, any such notions are futile. You won't have the opportunity.”Larry Roberts trembled at Travis's words, a chill running down his spine. Glancing at his brother, Vince, he began to realize that Travis was more than just a man with a formidable force at his beck and call. “I… I can see now that you're wealthy and influential. I was naive not to recognize it earlier. But to exact p

Colonel Richard Wayne stood before Travis, his posture rigid and his salute precise, a testament to his military training and discipline. With an air of seriousness, he addressed Travis, “Sir, Colonel Richard Wayne of the esteemed Storm Reapers Special Forces, reporting for duty. We stand prepared with a thousand elite fighters at your command. Your orders, Sir!”Travis regarded the colonel with a mixture of bewilderment and uncertainty. The level of deference and respect being shown to him left him feeling perplexed and out of his depth. He couldn’t fathom why the colonel regarded him with such importance or how he possessed the authority to issue orders to a military unit of such caliber. It left him pondering the extent of his influence and connections, a realm he hadn’t fully explored or understood.As Travis grappled with these thoughts, he couldn’t shake the feeling that there was more to this situation than met the eye.

In a sudden flurry of commotion, a voice rang out, exclaiming, “Yes, yes, boss is here! Larry, the big boss, has arrived! You’re done for now, you bastard!”The gang members erupted into a unified cheer, delighted by the presence of Larry Roberts, while Travis could only sneer in response.They quickly cleared a path through the middle, forming an aisle to ensure no hindrance to Larry’s entrance.Amidst the anticipation, a sleek black Mercedes Benz S550 glided into view before the crowd, its license plate bearing Larry’s name, unmistakably signaling his arrival.With a disdainful glare at Travis, Vince strode toward the car and swiftly opened the door, offering a greeting to his brother. "Welcome, big brother. It's fortunate that you're here."A robust figure clad in all black emerged from the Mercedes. As customary, two buttons of his shirt remained undone, revealing a wolf tattoo emblazoned across his chest, a clear indication to all present of his status as the Alpha of the North,

Unfazed by Jinx’s menacing tone, Travis interjected with a stern gaze, “Did you just threaten us?”Jinx, fixing his scrutinizing gaze on Travis, retorted with a dismissive frown, “I wasn’t talking to you, so keep your filthy mouth shut.”A low chuckle escaped Travis, a manifestation of his composed demeanor, as he nonchalantly looked away, his anger simmering by the second he stood there.Joanna cast a troubled glance at Travis, her discomfort palpable as the tension in the air thickened. Struggling with the weight of the situation, she paused, gathering her thoughts to formulate a compelling argument.Sensing Joanna’s unease, Travis stepped in to lend his support, “You profess to be residents, yet a majority have already willingly signed the contracts. Do you genuinely reside here?”Aligning with Travis’s suspicion, Joanna interjected, “Exactly! Allow me to register your IDs. I can act as an intermediary with the Demolition Office, negotiating on your behalf. What do you think of tha
