MARRIED TO THE HIDDEN BILLIONAIRE

Skyler: ?’? ??? ???? ??? ????? ?? ?????? ??????? ??? ??’? ?????? ???? ????. ? ???? ??? ??? ???? ??? ?????? ??? ?? ??? ? ?????? ?? ??? ????? ???.

She sent the message but she didn’t get a reply on time. She sighed and was about to put her phone away when it vibrated.

Mason just replied.

Mason: ???’? ???????.

Even his texts sound as cold as him. Skyler rolled her eyes and began typing again.

Skyler: ???? ???? ??? ?? ????? ???? ???? ?????

His reply came almost immediately.

Mason: ???

Skyler: ??!

Truth was she didn’t know who to talk with except for Mason but she couldn’t stop him from doing his work so she decided to step out.

There was light as usual so she went to the empty couch and switched on the TV. It was taken to a documentary TV where doctors were talking about how to treat patients’ illnesses and she began watching.

Jacob climbed down the stairs, he wanted to watch the TV but seeing Mason’s wife made him turn back.

“No no don’t go, I’m not really into the channel, you can come sit if you want!” Skyler stood up immediately.

Jacob turned back, sighed, and walked over.

“It’s my favorite channel, I was watching it but I had to turn it off and do something” he muttered and sat down.

“I heard last night that you wanted to be a doctor” Skyler sat beside him.

“Hmm, I think it’s cool to be able to save lives,” he nodded.

“If you seem interested then you should be working in a hospital?” She asked.

“I’m not working, I failed all my tests to work despite having a high degree in medicine” he replied.

“Why?” She asked again.

“I’m afraid of blood” he mumbled and her eyes widened. “I know you might be wondering why someone with a passion for being a doctor is scared of blood but it’s a long story” he mumbled.

“If you want to talk about it then I don’t mind, I’m your relative now since I’m married to your cousin” she faced him.

“I don’t like talking about it,” he said sadly.

Skyler sighed and held his shoulders.

“When my father was still alive, he used to tell me that if you’re afraid of something then you should walk into it and you will see that there’s nothing there,” she told him.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“Really?” He asked and she nodded with a smile.

“Thank you” he smiled at her before facing the TV.

Skyler just smiled, she felt happy that she finally found herself a friend in Mason’s family.

D•S STYLES★

The tailors were busy making some clothes when Mason walked in. He was putting on his nose mask as he looked around.

“Good evening sir” the workers began greeting but he did not bother responding.

He walked towards a woman and touched the cloth she was sewing.

“What kind of material is this? Too soft!” He knitted his brows.

“I’m sorry sir, I’ll look for a better one” The woman bowed her head but he walked past her.

She began admiring him from behind. Even with his mask on, he still looked so handsome.

“Can I have the drawings of these designs?” He asked out loud.

“Here boss’ ‘ a man rushed over to him with a sketchbook.

He collected it and went through it then shook his head.

“Who drew this?” He asked afterward.

“I did sir” a man with a chubby face and glasses came into view.

“You’re fired!” He kept a straight face as he said that then threw the sketchbook on the floor.

People were startled but dare not talk, the aura he carried with him made it hard for people to stare.

“We need people with better drawing skills, the red carpet will be starting next month and lots of celebrities will need clothes with rare designs, we should be working in a way to drag them to our side” he kept his hands in his pocket as he moved around.

The man he fired earlier already left.

“Alvin” he called and Alvin came to stand by his side.

“I need a professional artist by tomorrow and the rest of you, carry on” he ordered before turning around and walking away.

The employees began murmuring among themselves immediately.

“Boss seems like a no-nonsense man!

“The pay here is really good, I don’t want to lose it!

“I think his cold behavior just made him more attractive!

“Are you slacking off!” Sunny walked in.

Their eyes widened and they immediately got back to business.

DELGADOS’ MANSION★

It was almost eight now, Skyler and Jacob were still watching TV and she was getting bored already.

‘When is Mason coming back?’ she sighed inwardly.

“I feel so tired! It’s like my whole body is being beaten up!!” Carson whined like a baby as he came downstairs.

When he came back from James place, he went straight to bed and even after sleeping, he was still feeling so tired.

“What’s the matter kiddo?” Hudson also climbed down the stairs after him.

“I failed math again and my teacher assigned a personal tutor to me. I hate the tutor and I hate Maths, I am going to die!!” He complained as he matched to the dining table.

“Matilda, is there no food yet? I’m hungry!” He complained.

“I’m sorry, it’s still on the heater, just a few minutes and dinner will be ready” Matilda smiled at him.

Skyler thought she should help Matilda in the kitchen so she stood up from the couch and walked towards the kitchen.

“Mind if I help you, you’re cooking a lot of dishes and it won’t be easy to do it all alone,” she said politely.

“No you shouldn’t, trust me I can handle it” Matilda refused.

“But I insist,” Skyler replied and walked in. She grabbed an apron from the stand and tied it to her waist.

“What are you making?” She asked.

“Beef soup” Matilda sighed knowing there’s no way she can stop Skyler from helping anymore.

Skyler nodded and began walking towards the freezer.

“I’m good at cooking, I would make a great chef but cooking isn’t my passion,” Skyler said as she took the raw beef from the freezer.

Matilda only just smiled at her.

Ivy just came back from work looking very tired.

“Is my brother back?” She asked Carson who was munching on an apple and looking at the TV.

“No” he didn’t spare her a glance.

“What about his… What about that woman?” She wanted to mention his wife but the thought of it only annoyed her the most.

“If you’re talking about his wife Skyler then she’s in the kitchen helping Matilda to make dinner” Carson replied and Ivy began going to the kitchen.

Before she got there Skyler was coming out with a plate of soup. She saw Ivy and her face brightened.

“Hey Ivy, are you tired from work? You came right on time, I made this soup, does it smell nice?” She asked cheerfully.

Maybe if she shows Ivy that she means no harm to her brother then Ivy might like her.

“I’m not allowed to drink soup or anything that would make me gain weight” Ivy glared at her.

“Luckily this soup has a lot of nutrients in it, it won’t allow you to gain weight but you won’t lose weight either, it would make you look fresh and healthy” Skyler smiled at her.

“Haha, I still don’t want it!” Ivy rolled her eyes and looked elsewhere.

Skyler sighed and looked up only to see Mason coming in from behind.

“Mason” she called and Ivy turned back immediately.

“Bro” she happily rushed to hug him. Her eyes caught the rose milk chocolate he was holding and it brightened.

“Is that mine?” She wanted to take it but he raised his hands.

“You said it yourself yesterday that you didn’t want to gain weight so I bought it for my wife instead,” he said and Skyler’s eyes widened a little.

Ivy gasped and turned to glare at Skyler.
