Billionaire’s Great Obsession

He used to see her as a mere replacement for Sol because she looked like her, however, he now realized that they were actually quite different. Sol was very delicate and gentle, even submissive, while Brianna could be rather stubborn and independent.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

She’s actually nothing like Sol except her look. It then dawned on him that she was no longer just a replacement to him.

When Brianna woke up the next morning, the first thing she thought of was how Scott was. “Honey, how are you feeling? How’s the wound?” she asked and gently touched the bandage. She heaved a sigh of relief, seeing that it wasn’t bleeding any more.

“Do you think you know magic? You can tell if it’s healed just by a gentle touch?” Scott teased.

Brianna rolled her eyes. “I wish I knew.”

“Why don’t you take my shirt off to check then? Come on.” Scott smiled cheekily.

“No.” Brianna blushed.

“Don’t you miss my naked body?”

Brianna was speechless. She changed the subject and said, “I’m hungry.”

“Hungry for what?” Scott teased again. Brianna pouted her lips.

“Breakfast is ready,” Scott added with a smile. He had asked the chefs at home to prepare what Brianna loved.

He sat up on the bed next to Brianna and, to her surprise, he started feeding her. “Huh?” Brianna gazed at him for a few seconds as Scott held the spoon to her mouth.

“Aren’t you hungry?” Scott said as if it was nothing unusual.

Brianna smiled gratefully and took a bite.

Just as they finished eating, there came a knock at the door. “Come in,” Brianna answered.

The door opened, and popped Jodie’s head. She came in cheerfully and handed Brianna a big bunch of flowers. “Jodie!” Brianna exclaimed.

“How are you?” Jodie asked with a big smile. “Hmm, you don’t look like you have been shot or in pain, you looked more like in love. Ha-ha.” She teased, and Brianna blushed.

“Did you come alone?” Brianna changed the subject.

“Yeah. It wasn’t easy to get away from the big wolf!” Jodie smiled victoriously.

Just then, Sean walked in and said, “If I’m the big wolf, then you are the little rabbit that I’m going to wolf down.”

Jodie made a face and rolled her eyes at him. “I’m so scared. Mr. Wolf, please don’t eat me.” She played along and pleaded pitifully.

Scott watched the two flirting and tried to ignore them. He tapped on Brianna’s hand and pointed at the bag of cakes, fruits, and snacks that Sean’s bodyguard had just put down on the table.

Brianna understood what he was thinking but pretended that she didn’t. Cheekily she said, “The majestic Mr. Scott Anderson fancies something sweet, fruits probably. Would anyone be so kind as to get him some?”

“Sure,” Jodie answered. “What would you like? We have bought apples, peaches, grapes, all sorts. I know Brianna loves fruits.” Scott pointed at a few.

Jodie washed them and put them on a plate, as well as some cookies and cake. Brianna actually missed cooking, baking especially. She picked up an apple, and for fun, she carved a little elf out of it, which impressed everyone.

Jodie picked up the elf and examined it with amazement. “You are so talented, Brianna! I have to take a photo of it.”

“Here, take a photo for me, please.” Jodie handed her phone to Sean and posed with the little elf.

“It looks a bit like you, actually.” Sean teased.

“Looking like a cute elf is better than a grumpy old cat.” Jodie retorted.

“Who looks like a grumpy old cat?” Sean glared at her, and Jodie made a face at him.

Brianna chuckled, though Scott wasn’t very pleased. These two are here to spoil our privacy. He sulked a bit and tapped on Brianna’s hand again, and pointed at the fruit. This time, Brianna carved a tiny grumpy face on a peach and gave it to Scott.

Scott glared at her and asked, “This is not me, isn’t it?”

Brianna laughed. Scott pinned her down on the bed and started to tickle her. “No. No. Ouch, it hurts. Ha-ha. It hurts…” Brianna hated to be tickled, and as she struggled to stop Scott, she felt the pain on her back, yet at the same time, she couldn’t help laughing.

Scott stopped and lay on top of her, hugging her gently. Brianna felt his sudden affection and gentleness as well as the warmth of his body. She felt safe and protected.

Just then, Sean asked, sounding concerned, “Scott, do you want to do something about the gossips and rumors?”

Scott knitted his brows and said indifferently, “It doesn’t matter. Just leave it be.”

“I see. It sounds like it’s all true then?” Sean teased.

“What is it?” Brianna asked.

“Ha. People are saying that Scott Anderson has got himself the most loving wife and no one can separate them; that she ‘works’ in his office during the day. Oh, what’s more, there’s a mysterious man who has fallen in love with his wife, which Scott found out and got into a fight with the guy and almost got killed…”

Brianna listened with her eyes wide open.

Curious, Jodie asked eagerly, “Brianna, is it true? Did Scott get into the fight at Turn On Bar because of you? I heard that people died. My god. It must be crazy. It sounds like a movie.”

Brianna looked at Scott and said helplessly, “Of course, you need to do something about the rumors!”

“Why? It shows people how in love we are.” Scott said matter-of-factly.

Brianna was speechless. In love? It’s all just a show.

Sean snatched the elf from Jodie and took her hand, “Come, let’s go. We are spoiling someone’s sweet privacy.”

“Huh?” Jodie looked at Brianna and Scott, then understood. “Ha. Alright, I will come to visit again soon, Brianna. See you.” She said as Sean dragged her out of the room.

Brianna waved her hand and said goodbye. As soon as Jodie and Sean left and the bodyguards closed the door, Brianna pushed Scott off her and said, “Alright, they are gone. We don’t need to pretend anymore.”

“Pretend?” Scott frowned.

“Yeah. Pretend to be a couple in love.”
