MARRIED TO THE HIDDEN BILLIONAIRE

“Eww, he stinks!

“Why is he looking dirty?

“Is that a banana peel on his hair?

‘Looks like he just came out of the trash bin!

Carson scoffed at the comment he was receiving from the students. He took the banana peel from his hair and threw it to one side.

“Hey Carson, are you okay?” Simon asked the moment Carson got to his locker room.

“Do I look okay to you?” Carson frowned and removed his backpack from his shoulders.

Fred was just blocking his nose with his fingers.

“Bro for real, what happened to you?” Fred gave him a kind of stinky look as he asked.

“I wanted to prove to someone that I can drive my car but I fell inside a trash bin and now my car is under service” Carson replied as he took out a clean pair of uniforms before excusing himself to the male restroom.

He dropped his uniform on one side and looked at himself in the mirror. He looked dirty, his hairstyle looked messy and awful, and even the piercing didn’t fit him.

“Gosh, I’m a mess, fûck that Ryan guy!” He mumbled angrily as he looked at his reflection.

“I see a bad boy gone wrong here” a familiar male voice sounded from behind and Carson checked the mirror only to see James standing behind him and leaning on the wall by using one of his legs to rest on it.

He rolled his eyes and began removing the dirt from his hair.

James left the wall and went to stand behind him then placed his muscular hands in the sides of the basin, trapping Carson at his middle.

He leaned closer to look at Carson’s reflection from the window.

“I don’t know why you chose to punish yourself for Gracie when you can just stick with me, I’d never allow you to go through all this?” His voice came out as a husky whisper before he helped Carson take off the dirt from his hair.

“I can sue you for trying to force me into being gay, stay away from me James I’m not like you,” Carson said angrily.

“Really?” James leaned closer and rested Carson’s ears.

“You’re not like me? My hot and captivating look doesn’t attract you a bit?” His hot breath fanned Carson’s ears and it made Carson feel a bit ticklish.

“I..” Carson blinked and looked elsewhere.

“I already told you, I’m not like you, stay away from me” he snapped and tried leaving but James suddenly turned to face him.

Carson’s hands landed on his shoulders while James still trapped him with both of his hands. James was looking into his eyes but Carson wasn’t.

“Why are you avoiding looking into eyes?” James was wearing a smirk on his face as he stared at him.

“Because.. because your eyes are ugly, I don’t want to spoil my sight” Carson stuttered in his reply, his eyes went to his lips but he immediately looked elsewhere.

What the hell was wrong with him? He was feeling uncomfortable in this position.

“Really? My eyes are ugly are you sure about that?” James moved his head in the direction of Carson’s face to meet with his eyes.

Carson gritted his teeth and raised his head to meet his gaze.

“You..” he paused on what he was about to say when his eyes met with James.

James’ ocean blue eyes were deep and captivating. He couldn’t look away no matter how hard he tried to.

They both stared at themselves in silence before James began leaning closer to him. His lips were a little close to touching Carson’s when the door opened and some guys stepped in.

Carson got back to his senses and pushed James off before taking his uniform and going to another empty restroom.

Hey James, you look extra handsome today!

They began complimenting him but James only left the restroom with a smile.

DELGADOS’ MANSION★

It was already 5 pm, Mason entered the room and met Skyler staring at two bags containing both of their clothes.

“Are you set to leave now? I left the car on” he said and Skyler turned to face him.

“Of course I’m ready” She nodded at him and his eyes went to her small bag.

“You’re sure this is everything you need?” He raised one of his brows.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Back then when he used to take Linda out with him, she carried a lot of things, one bag for her clothes, another for her makeup, another for shoes, and some for her skin but she still complained it wasn’t enough.

“We are staying for three days, not a week so I’m not supposed to carry a giant bag” Skyler rolled her eyes and shook her head.

“Okay, let me help you with it” he took the bag from the bed along with his own before he began leaving the room.

“Are we not going to greet everyone first?” Skyler asked as she followed them from behind.

“No need, they are still at work, let’s leave” he shook his head. He really didn’t want to see anyone especially the old man before leaving but the door opened and the two fight buddies suddenly appeared.

“Skyler!” Ivy and Edna called at the same time as they rushed towards them.

Mason felt upset but couldn’t do anything, he just stared at Skyler, waiting for her to answer them so they could leave before the old man came out and started giving them a bunch of advice or talking about great-grandchildren.

“Skyler! I came to say goodbye before you leave” Edna was the first to get to her.

“Same here!” Ivy was breathing heavily as she glared at Edna from behind.

“No need to glare, we all know you’re always the second. I came to earth before you, got famous before you, made friends with Skyler before you and now I’m greeting her before you” Edna stocked her tongue out.

“And you will also dìe before me” Ivy added with a cute smile and Edna gasped.

“Hey, not now!” Skyler stopped the fight that was about to happen while Mason was looking at his wristwatch with a frown.

“Well it doesn’t matter who said it first, I appreciate both of you and I will see you guys on Monday. Please try to stop fighting with each other, for my sake?” Skyler gave them a pleading smile.

Edna huffed. “I love you Skyler but I can’t do that”

“Neither can I” Ivy added and Edna rolled her eyes.

Skyler wanted to say something but Mason cleared his throat.

“Girls, be good, I’ll see the both of you on Monday. If you need anything from me just give me a call” Skyler spoke quickly.

“Sure sis, look I brought you some snacks, you can eat on your way” Edna passed nylon to Skyler.

“Thanks” Skyler smiled and collected it.

“I didn’t get you anything but I will call you,” Ivy said and Edna looked at her smugly.

“We are getting late” Mason’s voice Interrupted the three of them and Ivy rushed to him immediately.

“So sorry to delay your trip bro, please take good care of Skyler, I love you” she tiptoed and pecked his cheeks.

Mason just rubbed it off with a frown before facing Skyler.

“Can we leave now, because I’ll appreciate it?” he said with a blank look, and without waiting for her reply, he began leaving.

Skyler shook her head and immediately followed behind.

“Don’t forget to give Grandpa a great-grandchild!!” Edna shouted after them and Ivy glared at her.

“I was gonna say it first!”

“But you didn’t, loser” Edna smirked and walked inside.

Ivy clenched her fist tight before following behind.

BLAKE’S MANSION★

He was staring at the window while holding a glass of whiskey and drinking. Looking at the transparent glass, he could see the reflection of Ivy’s smiling face.

It was getting to him now, he didn’t just see her as a movie co-star, he was into her and was only recognizing it since their shooting would end tomorrow.

They would be back to their separate ways and he would never see those sweet smiles and innocent looks from her anymore.

He sighed and sipped more whisky from his glass. Some footsteps were suddenly heard from behind and he turned back to see a female figure dressed in a long step.

He couldn’t see clearly because it was a bit dark.

“Who’s there?” He asked with his eyes narrowed.

The female figure took off the coat, she was putting on sexy lingerie before walking toward him and stopping in front of him.

“I miss you, do you miss me?” She asked with a smirk forming on her lips.

Blake narrowed his eyes as he stared at her face.

“I.. Ivy?”
