Undercover Billonaire Boss CHAPTER 254 who is that?
CHAPTER 254 Luca made his way out and walked over to the driveway where his car was parked. One of the guys opened the door for him to enter, but he paused, taking a moment to take in the Rolls-Royce Sweptail in front of him. His eyes narrowed as he glanced at how sleek the car looked. It was worth over ten million dollars; that was his highest purchase. He bought it for times like this. He still can't wrap his head around the fact that he owns it right now. The classic masterpiece isn't rampant. They say it's for the rich, but not every wealthy person can afford it and manage the maintenance. So perhaps only the truly wealthy can afford it. The classic was inspired by yachts; it was evident in its svelte tapering and flowing roofline. Once Luca stepped into the car, his lips curled into a deep smile as his eyes swept over the interior. The interior was just as impressive. Luca's outfit matched the Sweptail's opulence perfectly, with his Tom Ford suit in rich navy blue, paired with a
Undercover Billonaire Boss CHAPTER 255 Gasps
CHAPTER 254 The whole place was dead silent as they watched the ShadowOps park their cars right behind the Rolls-Royce. The atmosphere shifted from merriment and joy to shock and curiosity. They all couldn't wait to see who was in the car. The top five richest students from high school, who had it made because their parents were incredibly wealthy, were already at the party, so they weren’t sure who might have arrived in such an expensive vehicle. "Who do you think it is?" one of the girls nudged the other. "I can't think of anyone who would pull up here in such an expensive Rolls. I would have said it was Christopher, but he came in with a Bentley. There's no one else who would arrive in a car like this." "Whoa, can you believe that Rolls-Royce Sweptail? It's worth over ten million dollars," one girl whispered to another, her eyes wide with amazement. "I'm shaking right now! This person must be a billionaire! I've got a man on my arm; I really don't care!" "I know, right? I've nev
Undercover Billonaire Boss CHAPTER 256 Harper.
CHAPTER 256 The atmosphere shifted from shock to disbelief. Everyone's eyes were fixed on him, unable to believe that it was the same Luca from high school who had just arrived in such an exotic car, even with security guards. Some of their mouths hung open as gasps rippled through the crowd. They couldn't bring themselves to believe it, even though it was as clear as daylight. However, for Luca, his lips curled into a smile as he noticed their stunned expressions. "That's Luca Marco, right? How did he get such an exotic ride?" One of Luca's classmates nudged the other, their eyes still glued to him. "Yes," he answered without bothering to look away. "I'm just as shocked as you are. I can't believe he came here with such an expensive ride. I think he’s now a billionaire." In the next moment, a guy about five foot nine rushed toward Luca and quickly pulled him into a hug. "I thought you wouldn't show up, Luk! What happened? I tried to reach you after you left school, but nothing was
Undercover Billonaire Boss CHAPTER 257 He borrowed it.
CHAPTER 257 “Borrowed?” Livvie asked, confused. “We all saw him walk out of that car, and his security is still here. Why do you think it’s borrowed, Chris?” Chris’s lips curved into a smirk as he saw the ShadowOps begin to roll their cars back in an attempt to leave. “What the hell did I tell y'all?” he said, his eyes narrowing outside. The others looked out to see what he was talking about. “Didn’t y'all say they were his security? If they were really leaving, where the hell would they be going without their boss, huh?” “I just know this guy is slick as hell. He must have borrowed that Rolls just to come here and show off like he owns it. I’m sure once he’s done, he’ll text them to come drive him back, and he’ll pay for the car he borrowed. The Rolls-Royce Sweptail is freaking expensive! Don’t y'all get it? My family still has doubts about getting one because they think it would be a liability due to the crazy million-dollar maintenance costs. And you think that Luca, that poor
Undercover Billonaire Boss CHAPTER 258 Bait
CHAPTER 258 Harpher grabbed Luca's arm under the table, urging him not to continue with Chris. Everyone knows how troublesome he is—always taunting people and using his parents' influence to bully others. But right now, Luca knew Chris's family's influence wasn't enough to intimidate him as it used to be, so he was ready to face him head-on. He chuckled, his eyes sparkling with amusement as he turned to Chris. “You know, Chris, I have always admired how creative you are at coming up with new ways to berate everyone around you. If only you put this effort into making your life better and being creative with your father's fashion company, you wouldn't be stuck on that one tacky design.” Gasps rippled through the crowd as Luca stood up to the one person no one dared to confront. Everyone had always avoided Chris. He was not only troublesome and arrogant, but his parents were the same—they took all his words seriously and did exactly what he asked regarding others. The murmurs in the cr
Undercover Billonaire Boss CHAPTER 259 Bait 2
CHAPTER 259 Chris froze, narrowing his eyes at Luca. He hadn’t expected him to pay for everything they would eat there, especially when he was asking them to order the most expensive items. Shaking his head, he snapped himself back to reality. This couldn’t be true; something was fishy, and he knew it. He couldn’t believe that Luca wanted to pay for everything. Some of the ladies were equally shocked that he had agreed to it, but the most stunned was Harper. His mouth hung open as he stared at his friend in disbelief. He sharply reached for Luca's hands. “Come on, Luk. Don't fall for that bait. He’s just trying to get you to open your wallet. Please don’t do it.” The crowd’s murmurs grew louder, sensing the escalating tension between the two men. Chris sneered, “Oh, I’m shaking in my boots. Harper, you think Luca is some kind of big shot now, don’t you? But let’s see how long you can keep up this act.” He turned to everyone. “Fill up your tables with the most expensive items, ladie
Undercover Billonaire Boss CHAPTER 260 Hey buddy pay up
CHAPTER 260 The atmosphere shifted from the celebratory one it had been before to one of curiosity. The majority of eyes were now glued to Luca, watching him closely to see if he was going to foot the bill. Chris believed he would never be able to pay for what everyone ate. He glanced at the calculator as the waiter punched in the numbers, and when he saw the total still adding up after it hit one hundred and fifty thousand dollars, a forced smile appeared on his lips. Yes, that was his target. He wanted it to reach that point so it would be a hassle for Luca to pay up. He intentionally told the waitresses to serve each table a metal and the most expensive champagne just to incur more debt. Seeing the figures right now, a satisfied smirk curled up his lips as his eyes narrowed toward where Luca was seated. Livvie nudged him. “How much is it, Chris?” “She’s not done yet, but it’s over fifty thousand bucks. I dare the old boy to pay for that. Well, if he says he has money, then he s
Undercover Billonaire Boss CHAPTER 261 Pay up
CHAPTER 261 The group's eyes widened in shock as Luca calmly asked if they accepted card payments. Chris's smirk faltered for a moment, his eyes narrowing in surprise. He had expected Luca to give an excuse or ask if he could pay in installments. When Luca called the waitress over yesterday, that was what came to his mind, and now, seeing him ask to use his card for payment made him a little calmer from his tantrums. "Wait, you're actually going to pay?" Harper asked, his voice laced with skepticism. Luca nodded, his expression unfazed. "Of course, I said I'd take care of it, didn't I? You don't have to worry, mate. I will take care of it." The group's whispers grew louder, their voices filled with disbelief. "Did he just say he's paying with a card?" one of them whispered. "He really is fucking rich. I’m sure Chris must be embarrassed right now after all his rants. Luca seems to be pretty wealthy." "I know, right? I thought for sure he'd freak out," another friend chimed in. "Bu

EPILOGUE FIVE YEARS LATER“Daddy!” A young boy of around four screamed as soon as he saw Luca.Luca crouched down and pulled him into a hug before planting a kiss on his cheek. “Where's your mama?” he asked, holding his son's hand as they walked into the gently manicured lawn.When he arrived, he found Sara with their newborn. The cool evening breeze grazed their skin, with different shadows lurking at every nook and corner, on standby in case anything happened.Luca joined Sara on the plush couch in the lawn. Narrowing his eyes, he looked around and saw he was surrounded by the people he loved the most. Sara sat beside him, cradling their newborn in her arms, while their son, Alessandro, picked up his building blocks from the floor, preparing to arrange them.Luca reached for his wife’s shoulders, pulling her close. “I’m so grateful for this—the family we have built together,” he admitted with a soft smile.Sara nodded, flashing him a smile in return. “Me too, baby.” She leaned in

I breathed in before I walked into the courtroom. Once I stood inside the room, I heard a low booing. Even if I pretended not to hear it, even if I acted like I didn’t care and was deaf, I heard that booing loud and clear. I dragged my feet as I walked to the desk I was supposed to be seated at, but I wasn't going to let that get to me. These were minor things to deter me from focusing.My eyes narrowed and met those of my attorney; he had a stern but reassuring look on his face that got me excited again. I gave a shaky nod before settling in. A cold sweat broke across my forehead, and I wiped it away with a trembling hand. The next moment, the judge's gavel hit the desk, demanding silence from the whispers and murmurs that were beginning to fill the room.As I finally raised my head, I took a deep breath, trying to calm my nerves, but the low booing flashed in my mind and felt like a punch to my gut. The atmosphere was now tense as I looked around. There was Carlos, seated in his tai

CHAPTER 240The majority of the guests' eyes widened in shock, and some mouths hung open in disbelief at the sight of Luca in his custom-made Givenchy suit. Edmund and Stefano's laughter froze on their lips once they noticed Luca; they just sat there staring at him with a mixture of surprise and confusion. Not that they had expected him to be dead; they knew he wasn't dead, but they expected that since he had escaped the explosion, he would have some bruises or injuries that might prevent him from coming to the wedding.They couldn't believe he had come and was fully healthy. With the way he walked, flexing his steps and muscles, anyone could tell there were no injuries on his body. The question that lingered in their minds was: where had he been all this time if he was never injured?Sara's eyes, which had been welling up with tears—even though she had seen him less than twenty-four hours ago—noticed that Luca seemed like a new person and that there was something he was hiding from t

Minutes later, Stefano and Edmund arrived at the grand hall. Once their car was parked in the lot, their men quickly opened the doors for them, and they stepped out. Edmund's eyes widened as he was immediately struck by the sheer opulence surrounding them—the lavish decorations, the sparkling chandeliers, and the exquisite furnishings. He never expected it to be this grand.Stefano, on the other hand, was equally shocked by what he was seeing. “Wow, Luca really did a fantastic job with the decor here,” he said.Edmund nodded in agreement, his own eyes scanning the room with equal wonder. “I've never seen anything like it, Stefano. The attention to detail, the sheer scale of it all... it's truly mesmerizing. Well, let's not act like we didn't know the family he is marrying into.”“They must be behind all of this.”“I just hope his suit matches the elegance of today’s occasion.”“Well, that is if he’s able to climb down from the hospital bed to come say ‘I do,’” Edmund mocked, and they

Luca sat at his table with Blue next to him as she explained the surge in revenue of the hotel and its clubs in the last few months.The soft glow of the hotel's lobby lights cast a warm ambiance as Luca listened intently to Blue's presentation. She clicked a remote, and a graph displaying the hotel's revenue appeared on the screen behind her."As you can see, sir, our revenue has increased by 25% in the last quarter," Blue explained, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "And if we break it down further, we can see that the clubs have been a major contributor to this surge. I just know Lord Ercole would be so proud of the tactics you have used in his investments and brought up the revenue."Luca nodded thoughtfully, his eyes scanning the graph. "That's impressive, Blue. I'm glad we could make a change."Blue smiled, confident in her analysis. "Well, I think it's a combination of factors. Our marketing strategy has been on point, and we've seen a significant increase in foot traffic. Ad

Sara's eyes widened in shock as Madam Ivy's words cut through her like a knife. She felt like she had been punched in the gut, her breath caught in her throat. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. Madam Ivy's announcement was a clear attack on her, a way to discredit her and eliminate her from the running for CEO that was clearly her birthright. She had given her all to the company all her life.Sara was taken aback by the sudden attack from her Grandmother. If anything, Madam Ivy's enemy should be Jacob and not her.Her face turned red with rage as she tried to process what was happening. She couldn't believe that Madam Ivy would stoop so low, using her marriage status against her. She felt a surge of anger and humiliation, her eyes darting around the room to see if anyone else was reacting to Madam Ivy's cruel words, but everyone seemed fine with what she said.Luca, who was sitting next to her, shifted uncomfortably in his seat. He looked at everyone, and they looked like the

Back at the Edward family house, it was exactly 6:56 pm when Luca joined the ongoing dinner table in the dining room. Everyone was present, with Jacob and his mother inclusive. It was just one person missing that everyone was waiting for.A couple of minutes later, the door swung open and about three maids helped Madam Ivy to the dining table. One of the maids wrapped her hands around Madam Ivy's waist, and the other one had her hands over her shoulders as a wedge. They pulled the chair out and helped her to settle down into it. Meanwhile, as they helped her slowly to the chair, Luca, who had seen her current condition, couldn't help but stifle his laughter, but then it was too late, and his smirk caught everyone's attention except Grandpa, who had his head downwards.Once Sara noticed the smirk on his face, it flashed back into her memory... he has another family! Her face paled up immediately, and she clenched her hands, crumpling her dress under the table. She couldn't believe he h
