The Billionaire's Bite
Chapter 19

After a few minutes. We also ended up fixing it.

Mitch hesitated to look at me. Tsk...

"Let's go," I said and before leaving the office I immediately went to the elevator because the meeting was still on the 13th floor. Mitch immediately came in and counted it out to me. What? She wanted that.

"Are you okay?" I asked as the elevator closed.

"Ahm...yes sir. Don't mind me," she replied and bowed.

Sir again. Tsk. I broke up with Celeste when she found out that I had sex with someone else. As if I care? She is not my wife so she can't ban me.

A few minutes later we finally reached the 13th floor, I casually walked while my two hands were in my pocket. I saw Mr. Chin on a round table. Surrounding him were his angry bodyguards. 'Good morning Drake Asher Xillzion," he opened.

I shook hands with it. "Good morning too."

"I heard your dad is not here in the Philippines?"

"Yes, he handles our business abroad."

"Ahm...so here's my plan according to my company's merger with the Xillzion company," he said and handed me a folder full of agreements.

"You decided to change the name of my company?" annoyed I asked him.

"Ahm...We can mix about that-"

"I'm sorry Mr. Chin but I decline your offer," I replied.

"What's the matter? Your company name is a bit old."

"I don't care."

I saw it clench its hand.

"I need to talk to your dad."

"He will decline your offer too, cause it's so cheap."

"What did you say!?" He wants to punch me.

"Don't try Mr. Chin, you might forget you're in the territory."

His men pulled out a gun, but it signaled them to lower their guns.

It smiled and stared at me. "You don't know what are you doing son...you may regret your rejection." it threatened.

Tsk, as if I'm scared of him threatening. How much more wealth and power he has now and will not work in our company. Maybe if I didn't control I will kill him with my hand.

"The conversation is over...our door is open for you to leave Mr. Chin," I promised.

He stared at me sharply before finally getting up and leaving.

What a waste of time.

Thea returned to the condo past 5 pm. We giggled happily.

"So, what's the news about your relationship with Daruel? Are you in a relationship?" She asked as she ate.

"How many times will I tell you, Thea, that we don't have a relationship," I replied laughing.

"As long as that's where it's going."

"Oh no."

"Why? Don't you like Daruel?"

"Not that Thea it's not like I don't want to. There's someone more deserving of him than me."

"What are you saying besh, you're beautiful, good at cooking, kind, and dreamy. You're so a perfect couple."

"Ah as long as Thea, I don't want to have a boyfriend anymore because I still have a lot of responsibilities and things to do."

"How about your searching for the syndicate that killed your parents?"

"Okay, I still don't have any news. But tomorrow is my day off so I'll focus on finding and researching information tomorrow." "Great because tomorrow is my day off too," she said cheerfully. "I'll go with you."

"Are you sure?"

"Sure. By the way, there will be an event in our company. You're with me huh?"

"You know I have a job."

"It's Sunday, so you don't come in five."

"I'll think about it. I'm going to take a shower and maybe I'll be late for work."

"All right," it replied. I immediately went to the bathroom to take a shower, I also spent a few minutes, and finally I finished tidying up.

"Oh, are you coming in?" Thea asked when I got out of the room.

"No, I'll sleep. Of course yes."

"You're not even going to fix it. Like make-up or something."

"I'm not interested in that, I'm naturally beautiful, right?"

"Anyway, be careful huh? Just chat with me if you need me."

"Sure, I'll go first. Bye." That's it and I left.

When I came out of the condominium I saw Daruel in the front while leaning against his car.

What is this one doing here?

"Hey, Daruel! What are you doing there?" I asked, he looked at me and smiled?

"Waiting for you," I raised an eyebrow, I immediately approached where he was.

His masculine perfume smelled so good, he was wearing a simple blue t-shirt and white shorts. Its mystique and the beauty of her body became even more pronounced. "Aren't you in?" I wondered. He shook his head.

'I'm feeling pretty bad right now so I didn't go in first," he explained. I raised an eyebrow at him.

"You feel bad, why are you out here, it's so cold here."

"I'm waiting for you. I want to take you to your work... To ensure you're safe."

"You don't have to do that. I can do it myself, don't worry."

"Even though, and one more thing I also don't want to be locked up in the condo so I thought I'd take you." "Are you sure?"

"Yes, pretty sure." He immediately opened the door of his car. "Let's go?" he added. I nodded and got in the car.

I can't do anything anymore, maybe he's been waiting here for a long time so it's embarrassing to reject him. "Have you taken your medicine?" Later I asked. He smiled and shook his head as his eyes focused on the road. "Why don't you drink yet? Do you want to die?" I teased. He laughed softly.

'That's how I want you with me, you always make me smile," he said.

"Do I look like a clown?"

"No. You're gorgeous, the other women still need to wear thick make-up but you, you're naturally beautiful, "I suddenly felt the gradual warming of my cheeks. "Don't trick me."

"I'm telling the truth."

I just smiled and averted my gaze. A few minutes later we reached the Bay Leaf hotel.

"Thanks for the delivery," I promised as he opened the door for me.

He is very gentlemanly and very handsome. Any woman can easily fall for the likes of Daruel.

"You're welcome."

"All right, I'll come in, don't forget to take the medicine," I reminded. I was about to take a step but suddenly he spoke again.

"Ahm... Anna, c-can I g-get your n-number?" he said shyly while scratching his nape.

I stared at him for a few more seconds. "Sure," I replied and immediately showed him my cellphone number, he immediately copied it.

"Thank you," he said. I just nodded and he said goodbye as well.

I immediately headed to the reception area. I wonder why I can't see Andrea.

"Hello," opened Stephanie, one of the co-workers.

"Hi, did you see Andrea?" I'll ask.

"I heard she leave today. I think there was an emergency."

"Is that so. All right thank you." That's it and we started working.
