A Trillionaire in University 26(2): The masked savior
Chapter twenty six:I watched as the masked figure, the mysterious fighter who had intervened to save us from harm, slowly removed his mask, revealing the face beneath. As the fabric fell away, a gasp escaped my lips, as we beheld the identity of our unexpected savior. It was Scott. He greeted my mom and asked to speak with me. I followed him to a quiet corner and waited for him to talk. "Look, I know what I did was wrong. I should never have laid a hand on you. It was out of line, and I regret it more than you'll ever know. I let my temper get the best of me. There's no excuse for violence, especially towards someone I care about."He paused for a moment waiting for a reply but I didn't say anything. But Scott wasn't finished. He took a step closer, his movements slow and deliberate, as if he were approaching a wounded animal."I've been doing a lot of thinking since then, replaying the moment in my head over and over again. I understand if you never want to speak to me again but
A Trillionaire in University 27. Warmth on a cold rooftop
Chapter twenty seven: Warmth on a cold rooftop Instead of going home, I went to the roof top of a building. I always went there to think whenever life got too hard. It was my favorite place in the world. But that day, I found someone was already there. A solitary figure stood silhouetted against the morning sky. I had a clear view of his back.“Do you come here to think too?” I asked.As if awoken from a dream, the man turned towards me in surprise. We both recognized each other at the same time. “You!” we exclaimed.It was Senators Sanders again. We had met once before on my first day working at Karnegie Country Club. I remember he gave me a tissue to clean my tears and comforted me. “Your name is Jessica, isn’t it?” He inquired."Yes, sir," I replied respectfully.“I'm gonna assume you know who I am?" he asked with a hint of amusement."I do, sir," I confirmed.“You’ve gotta stop with the ‘sir’ like I’m some old man. I’m only forty five years young. Call me senator,” he teased, fl
A Trillionaire in University 28. Graduation day!
Chapter twenty eight: True to his promise, Senator Sanders brought all hell loose on Xeto Technologies. And when the dust settled, I emerged victorious, clutching a hefty settlement of 10 million dollars and the sweet, sweet taste of justice. But the best part? I now had full copyright ownership of BrainBoost, the app that started it all. Guess who graduated high school swimming in money? Graduation day had arrived faster than I ever imagined; it practically hit me in the face like a tornado. It felt like yesterday when I was just starting freshman year with no school books and no uniform. I looked in the rear view mirror of my car and couldn't believe that the young lady looking back was actually me. As I adjusted my graduation cap, I couldn't help but marvel at the journey that had brought me to this moment. How on earth did I go from the girl whose house burned down to a millionaire and tech genius? Among the crowd, I spotted David, looking dashing as ever in his graduation att
A Trillionaire in University 29. The senator's wayward son
Chapter twenty nine: The senator's wayward son.That same week, I had another dinner with Senator Sanders. This time, he chose a cozy little Italian restaurant tucked away in a quiet corner of the city. He said he wanted to avoid the public eye because reporters had been following him everywhere.He sent a car to pick me up at my house and drop me at the location. I found myself at a dark alley and was so confused. I glanced around nervously, wondering if I had somehow ended up in the wrong place. "Oh my gosh, I don't wanna die," I thought, already freaking out. As I took hesitant steps forward, the sound of my heels echoed off the cobblestone pavement. I kept adjusting my black minidress. I clutched my purse tightly, half expecting a masked figure to leap out from the shadows at any moment.Just as panic threatened to consume me entirely, I spotted a faint glow emanating from the end of the alley. There was a discreet sign tucked away in a corner, barely visible in the dim light. It
A Trillionaire in University 30. Insufferable + Predictable
Chapter thirty: Insufferable + Predictable As I carried Scott up and rested his right arm on my shoulders, he opened his eyes a little. He muttered something I could not quite understand. Despite his disheveled state, there was a vulnerability about him that tugged at my heartstrings. Senator and I gently placed him on the couch in the living room."I'm gonna go make some hangover medicine," Senator said to me as he went back to the kitchen.I was left alone with Scott. I glanced at him; his hair was ruffled and his shirt was inside out. It was strange seeing him like this, so troubled and helpless."You know, you're not making things easy for your dad," I muttered under my breath, more to myself than to Scott. But to my surprise, he let out a soft groan, his eyes fluttering open slightly."Hey there, sleepyhead," I said. "You had quite a night, huh?"Scott grunted in response, rubbing his temples with his fingers. I imagined his head was banging and his eyes were blurry. "Jessica? I
A Trillionaire in University 31. Damage control!
Chapter thirty one: Damage controlAs I walked out of the mansion through the front door, I was met by a barricade of reporters and newscasters. As cameras were clicked, flashlights blinked and were almost blinding to my eyes. Microphones were being shoved at my lips. A hurricane of questions hit my ears all at once. The interviewers tried to force their way through the entrance, shoving and pushing against my skin. "Miss Jessica Raye Kardashian, can you tell us about your relationship with Senator Sanders?""Are you getting married to his son?""Are you planning to run for office yourself?""Are you in a romantic relationship with the senator?"I struggled to find my voice among the throng of crowd. I ducked into the car and sank into the plush seat, eager to escape the chaos outside. As soon as I arrived home and settled onto my comfy couch, my phone began to buzz incessantly with text messages. "I'm heading over to your place right now," Rachel's message flashed across the screen.
A Trillionaire in University 32. A very complicated woman.
Chapter thirty two: A very complicated woman.I had two people I trusted in the entire world, Rachel and my mother. If my world ever came crashing down, I knew they would stick with me through the storm and the rain. Rachel had been my best friend for two years but it already felt like we had known each other our entire lives. I valued their opinions a lot. Even without asking, I knew my mom would be completely against an arranged marriage. She loved my father; she still does. She always wanted me to marry for love too – a marriage founded on love, not convenience or obligation.And Rachel? Oh, she absolutely hated Scott too. "I don't know what to do, Rach," I confessed.Rachel shook her head, her expression mirroring my own uncertainty. "This is a mess, Jess. Marrying Scott Sanders is not exactly a dream scenario.""I know, right? But it seems like the only way to salvage my reputation and save BrainBoost from sinking.""I get it, but are you really willing to tie yourself to that g
A Trillionaire in University 33. Marry me?
Chapter thirty three: Marry me?My voice echoed in the room. Butch paused, his hand freezing mid-air with the buzzing needle. The smell of the alcohol got stronger and the buzzing sound of the tattoo machine got louder as I waited for his reply.He looked at me incredulously and blinked. "What? Is this some kind of joke?" he questioned, laughing."Let's talk in private," I said, realizing that a lot of eyes had turned to us."Alright. But you have five minutes," he replied as he stood up, wore his clothes and followed me outside.The night air was cool and windy. As the cold air wrapped around me, a gentle breeze played with my hair, sending shivers down my spine. I hugged myself tightly, rubbing my arms in a futile attempt to ward off the chill that crept beneath my skin."Are you cold?" He asked without any emotion in his eyes."Yeah, it's a bit chilly, but I'll manage,"I shrugged.He arched an eyebrow, his expression unreadable. "Why wear a sleeveless dress in weather like this?"
