A Billionaire In Disguise

Two months went by naturally and during that time, Rome had watched Catherine's cousins avoid her, treating her like an outsider just as their parents did to her.

But she found a new friendship with him, and both of them became a bit closer than before.

Although they were far from acting like a married couple, she felt a bit at ease around him and that was more than he could ask for.

That morning when Rome rolled over in bed, his hand touched Catherine's arm, and he slowly raised his eyelids and stared at her.

‘I can't believe we've been sleeping in the same bed for a week now. All thanks to that cold I caught last week.’ Rome thought, staring at her long lashes.

Suddenly, Catherine's eyes opened, and they stared at each other for a while. Then she got out of bed without saying a word to him.

“Good morning, wife,” Rome shouted, staring at her back.

Without replying, Catherine rushed into the bathroom and slammed the door shut.

“She's cute when she blushes,” Rome mumbled, pushing the blanket off him.

Suddenly, the bedroom door opened and Chloe marched in, glaring at Rome.

“Where's Catherine?” She said, rolling her eyes at him.

“In the bathroom,” Rome said, gazing away from her.

Both of them waited awkwardly for a while, then Catherine came out of the bathroom, and a frown surface on her face when she saw her cousin.

“What do you want?” Catherine asked, letting out a harsh breath.

“Grandpa called for a meeting in his study,” Chloe said with a frown.

Then she walked out of the room and slammed the door shut.

“I wondered what it could be about?” Catherine mumbled, gazing at Rome with worry in her eyes.

However, those were his exact thoughts too.

The past months have been going so well, but Rome knew that that didn't mean the storm was over yet.
