The Billionaire's Secret (𝓑𝓲𝓵𝓵𝓲𝓸𝓷𝓪𝓲𝓻𝓮 𝓢𝓮𝓻𝓲𝓮𝓼 #1)

Chapter 19

6:00 PM

I immediately flicked my cellphone under the pillow to turn off the alarm I quickly get up and went downstairs. I drink water from the fridge and take a bath.

After I prepare, I get my things and went on our balcony to scan my reviewers. Tommorow I'll take three subjects again. Polgov, Creative Writing and Philosophy. Mga madugong subjects.

I turned on my wifi connection and open my social media. Puro reviewer lang ang stories nila sa Ig and messenger. I browse my twitter and most of my friends are tweeting and complaining about our exam on Practical Research.

Well, I can't blame them. Even me nahirapan nga ng sobra especially the computation part. Obviously I'm not good in math. One of the reason why I take humss para matakasan ang math but still even we don't have math subject this year we're still computing on the other subject like the Practical Research and the Physical Science.

I was busy on scrolling my twitter when I heard somebody cleared his throat. I was surprised seeing it was Eion. What the heck are he doing here again?

"Eion." I called and he just raised an eyebrow. He's still wearing a business attire but it is different on what he wear this morning. Iba talaga pag mayaman 'e. Tamang palit lang anytime you want.

"What are you doing here?" I asked when he didn't response. "Isn't obvious?" he said while raising an eyebrow. Masungit nanaman ganap ng lolo niyo.

"Obviously you are here, but what is the reason?" I asked but he just shook his head. Para nanaman kaming tanga na hindi nagkakaintindihan. I rolled my eyes to him. "Whatsoever." He said and left me. I was left hang.

He went to the kitchen. Maybe he's talking to my Mom. I didn't bother to follow and I'll continue browsing my twitter. After a couple of minutes, nakarinig ako ng paglapag ng tray. The tray filled with chocolates, cookies, nuts and milk. I look up at him with my forehead creased.

"I thought you went to the kitchen to see my Mom?" I asked and he sighed. "Stupid. Your Mom is in the garden." he said and my forehead more creased. "So what did you do in our kitchen?" I asked and he scratched his nose.

"Isn't obvious?" He asked while pointing at the foods in the tray. I rolled my eyes. Pag kausap ko talaga siya feeling ko nabobobo ako. "So you're feel at home." I stated and went back on scrolling my twitter feed.

"Your Mom told me to be feel at home" he said and I just make face. I don't care if he see me stubborn. "And you're gonna end up with me." he added that made me look at him. He was looking straight to my eyes. I gulped.

"Bakit sigurado ka na bang tayo hanggang dulo?" I sarcastically asked.

"You know? Saa'ting dalawa, ikaw lang ang hindi sigurado." he stated and I was stunned.

"Breath if you agree." he added that made my lips parted.

After a couple of minutes we're both silent. It feels so awkward. He's watching me while I'm pretending that I have a chatmate. I keep on typing asdfghjkl and send it on our gc and remove it after it was sent. I'm crazy now.

"Have you finished reading your notes?" he asked breaking the silence. I nodded but still facing my phone. My eyes automatically widen when he grab it. His eyes are on me his face has no emotions and my heart beats rapidly. I bit my lip. D-did I already reached his patience?

"I-I reviewed my notes o-one week b-before the exam." I said while looking at my feet. I'm afraid when I look at his face. He's so damn serious dude. Baka bigla niya ihampas sa'akin'yung mga libro makakapal pa naman iyon lalo na 'yung Polgov. I held a deep breath and remain calm even my heart was racing.

"I'll review you." he said that made my eyes widen. Seriously Eion Acrisius?

Pagkatapos niya akong ireview ay nagpaalam na siya. It's already 8 when we finished reviewing and we did a small talk after we ate our dinner kaya inabot na siya ng 10pm sa bahay. After I keep all my notes I accompany him getting outside. He's in my front and I keep on gazing at him while he's walking. His both hands are on his pocket.

When we reach his car he face me. "Thank you Aziel." he said smiling. His hands are still on his pocket.

"I am the one who should say thank you here for helping me review for my exam tomorrow." I said and he just chuckle. I don't know pero wala namang nakakatawa sa sinabi ko. Nababaliw na ata 'tong manliligaw ko.

"Nah. I mean for allowing me do this for you." he said and I chuckled. His forehead creased and I laughed more. Kinikilig ako mga walangya! "Cause why not?" I said and he just laughed. "Pasok kana" he said and push me inside and lock the gate.

"Pasok ng bahay pala." I said after I realized what does he mean and he smiled. "Pasok kana." he repeated and my forehead creased. Dami ko na wrinkles besh!

"Pasok kana sa buhay ko." he said.

After I arranged my school materials for tomorrow, I lay down my bed. I get my phone at the side table and opens my messenger. I added one photo of Eion while holding my reviewer. I captioned it "Thank you, Mr. Whatsoever" It's kinda blurd so It's okay. Hindi nila siya makikilala.

Hindi naman sa kinakahiya ko siya. I just don't want to be issued again like nagpapaligaw ako kasi mayaman siya. I'm not gold digger lol. Eion Acrisius is not just rich, if you want to know him better trust me he has a pure heart. Each day I rediscover him, I am falling even harder.

I was about to turn of my data when my notification ringtone keeps on beeping. I thought it was a group chat but too my surprise many of my viewers reacts heart, care and wow to my story. And one message catch up my attention. It was from Devon.

Devon Rivero: Kayo na?
