The Billionaire's Trials 016: Mr Gold-Digger
Leo turned to look at Jake and returned the phone to his pocket. Jake tried glancing at his boss sideways to observe his expression because whatever Victoria or Heaven told him made his mood change. “Uhm.. Sir, are you…?” “I’m fine.” Leo interrupted Jake immediately. He's started to accept the fact that Victoria and Heaven may never accept him so he made a mental note at that moment to learn how to endure their insults. Jake smiled when he heard his boss response. “Looks like my boss has learnt how to endure her insult without getting mad.” Jake noted inwardly while looking at Leo’s face. Leo adjusted his tie and sighed. He felt a little bit suffocated just thinking about Heaven's harsh words. If things were how they used to be and he was still the popular, wealthy Leo Paige, Heaven will not refer to him as a gold-digger. The word hurts him so much because he doesn’t consider himself as one. But the thought of having his revenge to get back everything he'd lost made him feel
The Billionaire's Trials 017: Pretend To Be My Boyfriend.
“Oh my, did I just say that?” Heaven asked herself shamefully. She never wanted to sound so needy while asking for his help. He'll! If she had her way, she wouldn't even think about talking to the bastard. “I just fucked up. He must be feeling like a boss right now," start feeling like my boss now.” she mused unhappily, imagining how happy Leo must be feeling now because she asked him for help. The thought of it made her feel really stupid. She fell on her bed with the phone still on her ear and finally decided to tell him what it was without wasting time. “What is it?” Leo asked her just when she concluded to tell him. She started feeling upset again because the fact hit her hard that she's just requested help from someone she hates so much. Heaven suddenly sat up, thinking of how her mother would feel if she learns that she'd asked for help from someone termed a 'gold-digger'! 'It’s not like I care.' Heaven sounded like she was trying to convince herself that she does not c
The Billionaire's Trials 018: I'm Sorry But I Can't Help You.
“Are you serious?” Leo asked Heaven in a surprised look. He couldn't believe his ears. What Leo couldn’t figure out is that, is she perhaps joking or being serious? “Yes I am.” she answered him in a rather calm tone. She suddenly became calm and careful with her words. He would never have believed that something like this would have ever happened. He was about to say yes to the request when he suddenly remembered that this is his chance to make her suffer for insulting him and ruining his mood. He, Leo Paige… I mean Greene doesn't turn down an opportunity for revenge! “I can’t say yes just like that.” Leo mused inwardly. The thought of her begging him soothed him. She sounded desperate so he felt this is the right time to strike and make her pay for almost… completely ruining his mood. Heaven on the other hand relaxed because she knows that Leo wouldn't reject her request after all he is where he is today because of her grandfather! “Who wouldn’t want to be my boyfriend? He s
The Billionaire's Trials 019: On One Condition.
“You’ll have to stop insulting me and calling me a gold-digger.” Heaven would have never guessed that this is what Leo will ask for. He knew she'd definitely agree but on a second thought, he realized she might not even agree to his request. “Seriously?” Heaven asked him. Though, it’ll not be hard for her to succumb to his request but calling him such names makes her feel comfortable. She always has this urge to remind him that he is nothing without her grandfather's help. “Yeah.” Leo replied and turned on a recorder so that everything would be recorded. When she agrees, he will have evidence to prove that they both struck on a deal. After a few minutes of silence, she decided to give him the reply he obviously wants to hear, at least there will be nothing to prove that what he is saying is true. “Okay fine.” she told him reluctantly and rolled her eyes. Leo smiled when he heard her. It’s obvious that she doesn’t know that he has something to prove that she agreed to his condition.
The Billionaire's Trials 020: Isn't That The Reason Why You Are Here?
"Why haven't you started eating?," James asked Heaven when he saw that she hadn't even touched her food. She turned to look at him with her usual fake smile and Leo heaved a sigh of relief when he noticed that Heaven had stopped staring at him. “So scary.” He said to himself and took another bite of the food. “Leo… Mr Winslow contacted me," James turned the conversation to Leo as soon as Heaven started eating. Meanwhile, Leo was just about to swallow another mouthful of the delicious meal when he heard James' words. He almost choked while figuring how to explain what had happened. But before he even had a chance to do so, Heaven spoke. “Oh my! This is so delicious, grandfather.” James and Leo turned to her. She made sure to give him a wide smile for their attention. “Of course, it should be. Chef Jane personally cooked the dinner.” James seems to have forgotten the conversation he was having with Leo. After all, it isn't everyday that Heaven compliments something. “It was…” “Oh!
The Billionaire's Trials 021: I Don't Like Him.
“Are you surprised?” James asked after seeing her reaction. He knew that the only way that would make her visit him is to cut off her source of funds, that’s why he refused to listen to Leo when he spoke against it. “You should have just told me to come visit.” Heaven finally found her voice. To say she was speechless would be understatement. James smiled when he heard what she said while Leo ignored the two and continued eating. “Have you forgotten I called you last month?” Heaven was quiet when she heard this because she remembered he told her how he missed her and she should persuade her mom so they can visit him. Who knew that they would come because of Leo that day and angrily leave. “You know why mom and I refused to visit.” Even though her voice was accusing him, it was low enough to make James realize that she is feeling guilty. He sighed. He knows why they haven't visited him since that day. “Are you two going to remain angry with me forever?,” he couldn't help asking. He
The Billionaire's Trials 022: It's Grandfather... Not Sir.
“She was avoiding my question.” James hid a small, sad smile as he slowly ascended the stairs. He'd remembered that he hadn't informed Leo about what he'd planned to tell him. He also has to apologize for Heaven's behavior. A smile appeared on his face as he thought of how Leo had successfully been able to secure the contract with the Hilton's. That company is known for their meticulous ways. They don't easily offer contracts. “I knew I chose the right person.” he had the urge to pat his back as he advanced to Leo's room after mounting the stairs with great difficulty. Leo was unable to sleep so he took his phone to distract himself. Going to the browser was a 'no' cause he'd probably be even more angered with news of those traitors. His jaws tightened. Perhaps he needs to focus more on his goals and put Heaven's annoying antics behind him. He finally settled down to watching movies on YouTube. Watching some of the videos made him smile and temporarily forget his anger. “Who is th
The Billionaire's Trials 023: Whose Welcome Party?
“No. There is nothing wrong, I wanted to talk about Heaven and her mom. Hmm… You have to be patient with them. They’ll still accept you.” James looked skeptical, the opposite expression of his words. Leo nodded his head though he felt they would never accept him no matter what he does. Not like he cares anyway. “You just have to be patient.” James placed his hand on Leo’s shoulder and the latter nodded his head in agreement to James' words. Leo was still thinking about what James just told him when he suddenly remembered those two traitors. It's time to do something about them. He can't keep watching news feeds get bombarded with news of Mason and Mandy's success. “Grandfather," he called out slowly. "I just thought about something but I don’t know if you will be pleased to hear it.” James was surprised. “Let me hear you out first. It's left to me to decide if I like your idea or not,” he insisted, seeing that Leo looked reluctant. The latter swallowed nervously and wondered if he
