My Billionaire Boss Is My Twin's Daddy
I noticed everything
The orchestra plays softly as Dwayne leads Hilary toward a table filled with powerful business figures. She feels like she’s walking into a lion’s den.
Hilary Chin
Whispers nervously “What if I say the wrong thing?”
Dwayne Haskins
Low, firm voice “Then don’t speak unless necessary.”
Hilary Chin
Mutters “Wow. Confidence boost of the year.”
Dwayne Haskins
A faint smirk tugs his lips “You’ll thank me later.”
They sit. The men at the table greet Dwayne with firm handshakes, their eyes sliding to Hilary with curiosity.
Mr. Grayson
“Dwayne, you never bring company. This is new.”
Dwayne Haskins
Without hesitation “Hilary is essential to my work. I trust her more than most.”
Hilary almost chokes on her champagne. Did he just… compliment her?
Hilary Chin
“Did you just call me essential?”
Dwayne Haskins
Without looking at Hilary “Don’t let it go to your head.”
Hilary Chin
Smiles faintly “Too late.”
They laughs at some business joke Hilary doesn’t understand. She stays quiet, fiddling with her glass. Then, unexpectedly, Dwayne leans closer.
Dwayne Haskins
Low voice, “Relax. You’re doing fine.”
Hilary Chin
Startled “You… you noticed?”
Dwayne gaze steady on Hilary.
Dwayne Haskins
“I notice everything.”
The way Dwyane says it sends a shiver down Hilary's spine. She looks away quickly, cheeks burning, while his expression remains unreadable
