The Billionaire Son-in-law 16. Secrets.
As he strolled through the halls of the mansion that still felt unfamiliar, he wondered why he had no memory of it, or his life there. He walked through the main living room, up the stairs and even checked out his late parent's room before ending his tour at his old bedroom.The bed was huge, big enough to accommodate his whole length even though he was pretty tall. The walls, ceiling and floor all had touches of gold, giving it a royal look. An exquisite chandelier hung in the middle of the ceiling, its beautiful crystal lights adding extra beauty to the already perfect room. To the left side of the room, a sliding door leading to a well decorated balcony stood firmly and as he approached it, the fragrance of Jasmine flowers hit him, reminding him once again of his love for them."How old was I when I slept in this room?""Well, you slept here till you were ten."Ten. He repeated in his head, absorbing the beauty of his childhood bedroom. To think that if his parents hadn't passed, h
The Billionaire Son-in-law 17. The CEO of Mochi Enterprises.
Ivy sat on the sofa reading the latest news online and a particular story caught her attention. 'Former millionaire hits rock bottom', she quickly clicked on the headline to read more.Andreas Peres, CEO of Peres industry and business partner to multiple companies has been said to have gone bankrupt.

She heard a knock on the door and she didn't even had to ask, she already knew who it was."Come in mother." Her mother was the only one that knocked like that. She would knock only three times, like she was some kind of cultis
The Billionaire Son-in-law 18. New Project.
At the Williams mansion, Lucas told Grover of his planning on moving in with his wife."Young master, I'm afraid I don't think I agree with this plan.""Why not?""Mrs Mochi lived here as a child as well and I'm afraid she might recall that."Grover was right. Why didn't he think of that? The fact that he didn't remember didn't mean it would be the same for Ivy. And besides, moving into a huge mansion might not be the best option when you're trying to hide your identity. "You're right. It might be suspicious to suddenly move into a big house.""Yes. Maybe we should wait a little while longer.""Maybe. Maybe when I don't have to hide my identity from her anymore.""Yes, that would be a better time." He still wasn't happy about lying to Ivy because he trusted her with his life, but it was probably for the best."Have you decided on what to do with the buildings?" Grover asked, probably trying to keep him from thinking."I have. I want to build a mall.""A mall?"He knew it didn't sound i
The Billionaire Son-in-law 19. The Birthday.
"Good morning, and happy birthday my love." Lucas placed a kiss on his wife's cheek as he handed her a cup of coffee."Thank you." She took a sip of the hot liquid before going back to her make up. Ivy's mother had insisted they spent the day at their house and Lucas didn't protest.She decided to doll herself up since it was her day so she chose a dark blue fitted dress that adored her curves perfectly. It stopped at her knees and it had a little slit in front, revealing a little amount of her thigh. Honoring Lucas's wish, her lush black hair was let down, adorned with shiny hair clips.Thanks to her mother, she had different brands of shoes and bags so finding the perfect shoe wasn't a problem. She chose a pair of Rosie glass heels and complimented it with her Louis Vuitton purse.She went with a dark red color for her lips and nude brown color for her eye shadow.She wore the necklace Lucas had given her on their anniversary and wore simple silver earrings. Lucas on the other hand
The Billionaire Son-in-law 20. Mr and Mrs Williams.
Lucas watched as Ivy scurried around trying to get ready for her meeting. She accepted the contract and would be meeting with Mike to finalize it.He remembered how happy she was when she saw it, she couldn't wait for him to get home from work, she called him and announced it happily.Deciding to keep it formal, she wore a black suit and wrapped her hair up in a tight bun. "How do I look?" She asked, without taking her eyes off the mirror."For the hundredth time Ivy, you look perfect." "Are you sure?""Positive.""Okay, thanks." She kissed him and grabbed her purse. "See you.""Bye." He called out as she ran out the door.★★★"I'm sorry I'm late, traffic was–""It's okay, I understand." Turns out Ivy was early, because she had to wait ten minutes before Mike's arrival."Let's get straight to the point shall we?" He brought out some documents from his suitcase and placed them on the table. Mr Williams wants us to build a super mall and although your company doesn't deal in architectu
The Billionaire Son-in-law 21. The Loan.
As the evening sky got darker, making way for the twinkling stars that were starting to shine, accompanied by the cresent moon, Ivy mochi walked back home, disappointment in her heart. It was a beautiful night, but she didn't have the time to admire the scenery. Her mother's words kept replaying over and over in her head. She knew her mother was angry about her taking over but she never thought she would refuse to help her.Her brother's reply wasn't any better and neither was her father's. "I'm sorry dear but i spent most of my money on your mother's new car. Maybe some other time." Some family she had.As she arrived home, she didn't even bother knocking. She retrieved her key from her purse and unlocked the door. Pushing it open, she rushed in and called for her husband. "Lucas?, Lucas?" There was no answer so she brought out her phone to dial him. She heard his phone ring from inside their bedroom so she went in and found him stretched out on the bed. "Lucas!" She went to where
The Billionaire Son-in-law 22. The Board.
"Good morning Mr Mike.""Morning Mrs Williams. To be honest, sometimes I feel weird calling you that." He admitted with a smile."Oh? Because of your CEO?" He nodded and she smiled. Working together on the super mall has made them a lot closer, they were even almost like friends. "Then why don't you address me casually, and I'll do the same with you.""I don't known if I can do that." "Just try it. I could call you Mike, or Mickey, any one you prefer. And you call me Ivy.""I don't know, it doesn't feel right."She knew he wouldn't agree to it, after all it wasn't the first time she would be asking him. "If it'll make you feel better, you can just call me Mrs Mochi.""Thanks, I think that's better."When Ivy met Mike for the first time, she thought he was one of those proud, rich guys who always acted cold around people. But as they got to know each other, she realized he was just really shy."So, how far are we in construction?""Well, I was there yesterday and from what I saw, thin
The Billionaire Son-in-law 23. Project Defense.
It had been almost a day and he still hadn't heard from Grover. He knew he was probably still busy but his anxiety kept increasing, and it was the same for Ivy as well. She was seriously worried and he wasn't sure of how he was to convince her again.Lucas kept checking his phone every minute, hoping to get a call or text from Grover but still nothing. That bastard, Marco Platana had made two more public announcements, calling Lucas's company a liar and a fraud. He claims that Lucas wants to build an unsteady mall that wouldn't last long. He said he was trying to prevent the calamities that would befall the society when the mall collapses.The worse part was that some of the people were starting to agree with him. Others still had faith in Lucas's company and were on his side so that was still good."This guy is ridiculous, I can't believe he would do something like this. I'm really starting to hate him more than smelly Andreas." Ivy lamented as she paced around."Relax, okay babe? I'
