Dangerous Billionaire

Prank

Lexi woke up from his sleep. For several days, he had been asking for his rights as a husband. And this morning for the first time, Lexi woke up first. Looking at his wife’s face, he had said love that night. However, until this moment, Jessica had never answered her declaration of love. She was still silent, and just doing her duty as a wife.

Before getting out of bed, Lexi tidied up the blanket that covered his wife’s body. Then, he tiptoed out of his room very slowly, not wanting to wake Jessica.

He walked down the stairs slowly as he rubbed his eyelids. He walked to the back garden.

“Are you awake?” Lexi asked when he saw Arvel who was sitting enjoying the morning air and drinking a cup of coffee.

“I always get up early,” Arvel replied.

“Wake up early or can’t sleep?” Lexi looked straight into his cousin’s eyes. He needed to confirm something so as not to become a mere issue.

Both of Arvel’s eyeballs staring forward returned Lexi’s gaze. He didn’t understand the meaning of the question.

“I always get up early, ” Arvel insisted.

“Oh, I thought you were having trouble sleeping because of a girl ten years ago!” Lexi said deliberately provoking. It was no secret, all relatives know about Lexi who couldn’t forget the girl who accidentally spent the night with him on the school’s farewell day. It was all about making jokes. But not for Arvel who indeed had not been able to forget the charm of the girl.

“Shut up, don’t discuss the girl whose name I don’t even know!” Arvel looked angry. To be honest, he had never been in love with any woman. He was still waiting for that woman, somewhere? Either destined or not!

“Soon you will be 28 years old, Uncle Sandy contacted my mom several times and will immediately set you up if in your 28th year you don’t introduce your future wife!” Lexi said. That’s what he knows.

“Thanks for the information!” Arvel walked away, choosing to leave Lexi rather than get emotional.

“Wait! Let’s talk for a second!” Lexi stopped him.

“Moreover, I’d rather sleep, than listen to your words! You haven’t changed! I love to tease and humiliate people!” Arvel stared intently did not like.

“I’m not like that, not as bad as you think! I wouldn’t care if you didn’t touch Jessica, tell me who told you to come and disturb my married life?” Lexi asked.

“Does it matter? Now the most important thing is that you have confessed your feelings and Jessica accepts your apology! My mission is over, I will go home to my father and next month return here for the latest project of the Ricardo group, ” he said. He didn’t need to tell if Kania and Arsene told him to come sooner.

Lexi shook his head, gave thanks to Arvel cause he had confessed her love for Jessica.

“Take care of my sister-in-law, if I could fall in love I would also take care of the woman I love with all my heart, soul and body. Sister-in-law has lived her childhood and adolescence in an orphanage without parental affection. Did she not get affection from her husband when she got married?” Arvel sat down again.

“What? Don’t you know that Jessica is PHTG?!” Lexi complained. His tone turned relaxed, knocking down the dividing wall between himself and Arvel.

“PHTG” Arvel who has been studying in London, wass very unfamiliar with the term of GM. “What is that?” he asked.

“Play hard to get,” Lexi answered.

“Does she really play hard to get? You must be joking.”

“Yes, since that night, it has been every night that I have confessed my love but Jessica has never talked about my confession of love!” Lexi answered. Honestly, he didn’t want to tell the more to Arsene, he must have been laughed at. When telling a story with Arvel, it would be useless because Arvel has absolutely no experience of love and women. That’s what he knows.

“Take your wife to a romantic dinner, if you need a day of activities together, then end with a romantic dinner. After that, you reveal everything. You have to confess your love and ask her to be a real wife for you! Couples live for good, not bedmates for just two years!” Arvel said obviously. “If the contract marriage is still going on, I will report you to prison on human trafficking charges!” Arvel was watching Lexi closely. A smile on his face when he told Lexi about Jessica. That meant the guy is really in love.

“That’s right, I will confirm everything immediately.” The two corners of Lexi’s lips widened to form a smile. He got a solution to a romantic problem that he usually talked about with Arsene.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Good,” he praised. I’m going home this morning too!” Arvel stood up from his seat. “Say goodbye to my sister-in-law! Congratulations to both of you!” Then, he just left, leaving the back garden.

At noon Lexi went home to have lunch with Jessica. This morning he drove Arvel to the airport for a flight to Semarang. As a result, he could not have breakfast with his wife.

Lexi stopped his car in the garage and went downstairs. He did not have the patience. He wanted to meet with Jessica as soon as possible. In addition to having lunch together, Lexi would also express his intentions tonight according to Arvel’s idea.

“Where Is Jessica?” Lexi asked his mom who was busy opening her fashion magazine.

“Ever since you showed her the flower garden next to our house and entrusted the roses to her, Jessica has always spent time there. I saw Jessica planting a new variant of roses that she ordered from the online shop,” Mrs. Anna explained enthusiastically. She loved Jessica very much and would always love the things her daughter-in-law does.

“Jessica is still in the Rose Garden?” Lexi asked, looking at the watch on his wrist that already showed Eleven O’clock in the afternoon.

“Yes, she is diligently planting roses, maybe next month I will open a flower shop for Jessica!” she joked.

“I’ll be there.” Lexi ran a little towards the side garden, heading to the Rose Garden where he had entrusted all the flower plants in it to his wife.

“Jessica.”

“Jessica.”

Lexi called the wife as he walked in the flower garden. He looked around at all the new roses. Yeah, it must have been Jessica who planted it.

“I’m here!”

He saw Jessica waving her hand to the west of the flower garden. Lexi moved closer to the source of the voice.

“Did you plant everything?” Lexi looked at the hundreds of polybags around Jessica.

“Yes.” Jessica’s lips cracked into a smile.

“Don’t work too hard, I don’t want you to be exhausted!”

Lexi’s hands stretched out, grabbing Jessica’s fingers. He looked at Jessica’s face. Her cheeks blushed from the sun. Sweat on the tip of her nose, making Jessica even more radiant. They looked like Edward and Bella in the Twilight movies.

“Here!” Lexi rubbed his wife’s cheek.

“What is it?” she asked. ‘It’s not lunch time yet because our maids haven’t called us yet,’ she thought.

“Let’s have lunch together, after that I will take you to the villa!” he said. He looked at Jessica with a warm look. Since the incident that night, Lexi has always treated his wife very well.

“Okay,” Jessica was convinced. They both walked out of the flower garden.

“Where are we going?” Jessica looked at Lexi who was sitting next to her. The man focused on driving his car to a special place to eat that is close to one of the Ricardo family villas in Bogor.

“Soon we will arrive, you will definitely like it Jess!”said Lexi. He grabbed Jessica’s hand and kissed the back of her hand. Don’t copy! This scene can only be done by people who are already professionals.

They arrived at a restaurant with a beautiful view and cool air. Confessing his love accompanied by sunset views would definitely make it difficult for Jessica to refuse it.

The car stopped in the parking area. Lexi went downstairs first, then opened the door for his wife. Then, holding Jessica’s hand entered the restaurant to the seat he had reserved.

They both sat face to face, enjoying the special dishes that had been served.

“You like it?” he asked. He never took his eyes off his wife’s face.

Jessica nodded, looking at Lexi and the sunset. ‘They were both beautiful and I don’t want to miss them.’

“I like it too, I like this place. I love eating here with you, I love seeing the sunset view from here, of course with you Jess!” he told. His hands moved nimbly, grasping the fingers of the beautiful woman sitting in front of him.

Jessica’s heart was beating. The faster, and the harder. It could be, people sitting around hear the sound of her heart pounding.

“Jess, I want to be your wife forever. Will you marry me and cancel our marriage contract?” Lexi looked deep into Jessica’s both eyes.

Jessica, who has been setting her heart so that it was not too easily fascinated by this man who was currently sitting before her. This time, in reverse.

She didn’t expect Lexi to be so sweet and romantic. ‘Is this really Lexi Ricardo?’ She still couldn’t believe it.

“Will You Be My Wife Forever?” he asked again.

She nodded, she agreed

“Really?”

“Yes, I will be your wife till we die!”

Once again Lexi kissed the back of Jessica’s hand. “Thank you Jess!” he said.

Jessica just smiled.

Lexi’s cell phone was buzzing. He got a call from Arsene.

“Wait, I have to pick that call!” Lexi showed the screen of hidcell phone which showed a photo of his secretary.

“Okay.”

Lexi stood up from her seat and moved away.

“Hello,” Lexi said as he brought his phone to his hearing.

“Hello, I have two pieces of news for you, sir,” Arsene replied. In the morning he went to several meetings with clients so that he did not have time to talk to Lexi.

“Tell me the bad news first!”

“Well, the bad news. Mr. Samuel, find out your marriage contract with Miss Jessica!”

“So, what is the second good news? Or just as bad?” Lexi was impatient.

“The second news is very good, I heard you were going alone with Miss Jessica, and you will confess your love. Does that mean, the marriage contract will turn into an actual marriage?”Arsene really hoped that’s the case, because Mr. Samuel would be angry if he lied.

“I just pretended to love Jessica!” Lexi answered.

Click.

The phone call just ended.
