Revenge of The Furtive Billionaire Heir by Ryker Helios

Chapter 13

  1. I wasn’t ready for this.

Coraline was pretty silent when we dropped her at her parents’ house, rather than the apartment she shared with her ex-boyfriend. She changed her mind after learning about my identity after I promised her that I would help her get into Greyson Consolidated. It felt like her fears alleviated a bit, and she promised not to go back to the apartment for her own safety.

She thanked me profusely after we dropped her off, and gave me her name.

“I’m sorry,” she apologized again, looking near tears, “I’m so sorry for everything I did. I don’t deserve this help…”

My stomach, at that moment, chooses to growl.

“No,” I say, “didn’t have the time, was with Aiden and Coraline.”

“I see,” something in his tone tells me that he doesn’t believe that’s the whole truth. Gerald is scarily perspective like that, “please follow me to the kitchen, young master, and let me make you some dinner.”

“Oh, no, Gerald, you don’t have to-”
