The Billionaire's Billionaire ✔️

Chapter 15: Adam's POV

    I can't believe how close I came to revealing the scandal that rocked my world and ended my life as I knew it. The incident.

    Playing with my balls made me feel better. It was the first time in months that I really smiled.

    That night, as Apple showered, I sat outside her bathroom door and waited. Chester said that was weird, but I missed her.

    "Chester do you think she'll be done soon?"

    "Sir, it's only been six minutes."

    "So is that a yes?"

    Chester presses his fingers against his temple, like mommy does when she has a headache. Chester does that a lot actually.

    "Chester is everything ok?"

    "Oh yes sir. Splendid."

    "Chester I haven't been this happy since...the incident. She makes me feel like myself again. Thank you for running over her, Chester."

    Chester let out an unintelligible noise.

I gave him a pat on the back. "If you weren't such a shitty driver, I would never have found Apple."

Chester smiles at me through his gritted teeth. "You're welcome sir."

Sighing, I lean my head back against the door. A year ago, everything I knew fell apart. My life is turning around for the better, thanks to this girl. She was saving me. She was saving Adam. Saving Adam has a really nice ring to it. Maybe that's what I should call this story. I need to reconsider this.

That night, I put on my Armani suit and lay in bed as Chester tucked me in and Apple fluffed my pillows. No longer will I cry myself to sleep. I now have an even lesser chance of dying in my sleep because I've ordered both Chester and Apple to sleep in the same room, drastically lowering my chances of being the 1/8th person by half, since now I have double the people with me than before. As expected, the commoner Apple does not comprehend my advanced math skills.

"Sir, that makes no sense," she says.

Rolling my eyes, I pointed to my Harvard degree on the wall.

Apple's eyes bulge out.

"Is that...real?"

Chester nodded. "Adam really did go to Harvard. There's nowhere his mother doesn't have influence. Oh also, he is super smart. Obviously."

"Believe it or not, when I was a kid I used to to get bullied. The other kids were jealous of my superior intellect and used to call me Adumb. " I  laughed, because you have to be a special kind of stupid to not recognize my genius. I am one of the most intelligent beings to walk this planet, and I will not be brought down my jealous people who have nothing better to do with their lives.

"Wow." Says Apple.

"I can't imagine why they would say that," says Chester.

"Exactly. Good night Apple and Chester."

"Good night Adam."
