I Just Learned That She's Billionaire

Chapter 3 - New York Times

In a majestic victorian mansion in Fermi Country,

"Dear, You received a wedding invitation again.  This time, the location is in the place where you are right now. I will email the address later. Are you going?" Christine is talking to her daughter over the phone.

"Mom, Im not sure. You know my situation right now. Maybe I will just send a gift, what do you think?"
Esmeralda lazily answered her mother. She just arrived from work and was about to cook something for her dinner.

"But honey, I think it's time for you to socialize. You're already 25 years old and yet, you never introduced a boyfriend to us. When are you going to send out invitations too? If you attend, maybe you could meet someone to be our son in law." Christine is worried that her daughter will remain unmarried at her age.

"Mom, I do not wish to meet and marry a man in the same circle. He could restrict my freedom. I want a simple man. I dont want to walk around the City with  dozens of bodyguards. Look at me now, Im free walking anywhere I want, to malls and streets , and anywhere. Im really enjoying it." She really enjoys her freedom. She's so happy that she's not like the other CEOs and celebrities that was surrounded with bodyguards whenever they tour.

"Okay sweetheart, just take your time then. Sorry for always asking." Her voice sounds lonely, but then she remembers something. "Esme dear, who is the goodlooking guy beside you in the picture you sent in whatsapp?" She was suspicious. She suspects that her daughter is hiding something from them.

"Ah, Well he's Victor. He's an assistant Manager in the company Im working with." She felt happy talking about him, and that happiness in her voice never escaped the ear of her mother. She became more and more excited. "Oh really, he's so handsome. I will be happy if you can invite him here one day."

"Hahah! mother dear, we're not earning that much, how can I explain it to him? Ofcourse he don't want that I'll be the one to shoulder the fare since he know that my salary is lower than his salary. And besides, he never said ..." She hesitates to continue. "Mom, he never said he loves me" ..she blushed when she said the word 'love'.

"So does that mean you are waiting for him to say he loves you?" Christine widen her eyes and didn't waited her daughters answer. She immediately called her husband "Sweetie, our daughter is inloved! She's just waiting for the boy to confess!"

Esmeralda didn't see it coming. They really can't wait and got excited over an unsure thing, hehhe.. Well, if Victor says he loves me, how would she respond? She thought. Will she say "I love you too" ? Wait!! She ponders. "Do I love him? Am I axcited seeing him?"  Her answer is 'yes'. She's really happy everyday since they're seeing each other in the office. He even accompany her going home to her apartment most of the time. "But what if he only see me as a sister?" This thought made her sad.

Her thought was distrupted by a phone call. She received it excitedly. "Hey Princess, are you free on Saturday? Can I invite you to a full body spa and a makeover?" its Victor. But, what?! Makeover and a body spa?! He always call her Princess,but she never asked him why. "Okay then. I never thought you're not straight. I'll go with you on Saturday."

"What did you say? I'm not straight? In other words, you're saying that I'm a gay?!" His ego was pricked.
"Okay, I will forgive you this time.but not next time." She noticed a slight annoyance in his voice .

She regretted the words she just uttered. "Oh Im sorry my prince. Its not what you think. Hehe peace!"

It's Saturday.
Victor fetched her in her apartment at 6 am using a cheap car. "I want to treat you to a full body spa so you could relax. And lets go shopping. And then lets attend a wedding. The bill is on me dont worry."
