He's My Ruthless Billionaire novel Chapter 48

His hairs are right now frizzy and I couldn't resist, I took my hand slowly and as I touched his hairs, He caught my hand.

Hell, he was awake and I was staring for like the last ten minutes, literally.

He opened his eyes slowly and damn, here I fell again for those beautiful brown eyes.

"Love what you see?" he asked as he kept my wrist firmly in his grip.

"Um... I-I was just... your hairs are not settled, so I..."

"I am sleeping. No one's hairs would be fine when they sleep" he exclaimed while leaving my wrist and looking at the ceiling.

"You mean, not even mine?" I asked sitting up.

His eyes roamed over me for a while and he shrugged. "Yes"

I rolled my eyes and going to the nearest mirror, I saw myself.

My hairs look perfectly fine.

"You--" 

As I turned around the lights went off and darkness surrounded me. "Robert?" I asked as I used my hands to guide me in the room.

"Hailey... stay wherever you are. Do not leave the room" he said and I could hear footsteps across the room.

The lights were on the next second and I sighed in relief. 

"Do you have Nyctophobia?" Robert said as he came towards me.

"No... but, you know. Everyone is afraid of the dark"

"Nope, there is nothing like that" he winked and came closer. "At least I am not. So, call me whenever you are in a dark place"

I smiled at him. "You have changed, you know that?" I asked him as his hand went up to tuck a hair behind my ears.

"I told you. You are changing me" he replied and smiled back at me.

I smiled and chuckled lightly. "Let's go down," I said and he nodded. We then went to first freshen up and then went downstairs.

The breakfast was already ready, so no issue. "I wanna go to work with you," I said.

"Nope. Next week" he said as we got up after breakfast.

"But, Robert--"

"Please Hailey," he said and picked up his stuff. 

"Okay, boss" 

"Yeah, true! I forgot I am your boss" he chuckled and checked his watch. "Bye"

"Bye Boss!"

"But call me Robert" he stopped and said. 

So, I just went and switched on the light and she was fine. 

Gosh, she gave me a heart attack. 

If I have a heart. 

After eating breakfast, and also after denying her from going to the office with me, I left for work. 

I was kind of taken aback when she told me that I should eat lunch today as if she knew I didn't eat yesterday. 

How does she know that? 

Maybe, because she is my wife. 

On the way, I went to meet Max. I am gonna bring him home especially with me. 

He was already fine, so I took him with me to MO. I didn't go LO today, Xander said he can manage it. 

As Max entered the building and after the security was locked, he spoke. "Robert. See this" he said and showed me what looked like a video. 

I saw it, it was a media footage of... Summer? 

Summer, Nicholson's girlfriend. She was telling the media that she and he are going out of the country. 

"So now he is out of the country, we can lose a little bit and try to maintain LO more than--"
