Mr. Billionaire Boundless Love

Selene rolled her eyes and stared at him carefully. She saw the dark circles, indeed. “You should take care of your health.”

“Would you feel sad if I weren’t well?”

“Yes, of course,” Selene smirked at him. “If you’re not well, maybe I should take care of you.”ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“Take it easy. I can take care of myself.” Austin patted her head playfully.

Selene laughed. “I’m kidding. I wouldn’t do that.” She retorted. ”In any case, I have to go home and take care of my dad now.”

“I’ll go with you and talk with your dad.”

Selene and Austin went back and saw Harry still out in the yard. But now, he was lying on the ground with another wine bottle beside him.

Selene felt really awkward and shook Harry’s shoulder. “Dad, wake up!” She shouted.

Harry opened his eyes in a daze and looked at Selene. Suddenly, he laughed, “Selene, you’re back!”

Selene felt angry. “I’ll leave you alone if you drink like this again.”

“Let’s get him inside,” Austin said.

They carried him into his bedroom, and then Austin helped Selene change Mr. Morris’s clothes.

Finally, Selene saw Austin off. “Thank you, Austin.”

“It was my pleasure, Selene.” Then Austin sighed. “So many years have passed, and Harry still misses your mom so much. I pity my mom.”

“It would be great if Dora and my father got together, but he doesn’t want it.”

“Just leave them alone. They can live their lives well by themselves. But it would be best if you asked your father to drink less. It really is bad for him.”

“I know. I’ll ask him.”

“When will you go back to Houston?”

“In a few days. I want to stay here for a while longer.”

“Me, too. We’ve not spent time together in ages. Let’s have some fun here for a few days and go back to Houston together.” Austin said, raising his eyebrows.

Selene and Austin enjoyed themselves a lot during the next few days and traveled around their hometown. Nearly a week later, they went back to Houston together.

Harry promised Selene that he would never drink again. Selene did not believe it, but she couldn’t do much about it other than ask Dora to watch out for him.

When Selene returned to Houston, she went straight to her store.

Austin was with her. “I’ve been here before, but I never went inside.” He said, grinning.

“Why have you been so secretive? You didn’t tell me that you were in Houston, and you didn’t even come into my store to say hello.” Selene glared at him.

“I’ve told you that I wanted to surprise you! I wanted to show you my success.”

They walked into the store, and Selene smiled at her assistant, Mandy. “Is there anything urgent that needs to be dealt with?”

“Some new customers came by and made some orders. I’ve taken their measurements. You can decide on the date of the collection.”

“Okay.” Selene nodded.

Austin looked around, seemingly impressed. “This place looks great.” He praised him.

“You’re a business owner now, Austin. Let us make you some suits.”

“Wow! That’s even greater! I’ve been dreaming of you making me a suit for a long time.”

“Actually, I’ve made you some already.”

“Yes, you have. When you went to college, you practiced making me some dresses and trousers.” Austin rolled his eyes.

“Yes, you wore the dress I designed. You were very supportive. As a way to say thanks, I’ll make you the best suits I can.” Selene laughed.

“Of course. You should!”

When Selene measured Austin, Mandy seemingly remembered something. “Selene. Mr. Denovan came here yesterday and asked where you were and when you will be back.”

Selene paused a while and hid her emotions. “What did you tell him?”

“I told him that you’d gone home and will be back today.”

“Okay.” She said, then went back to taking Austin’s measurements.

Austin giggled whenever she touched him.

“Keep still!” Selene asked, slightly annoyed.

“I’m ticklish.” Austin giggled again.

Selene quickly finished the measurements, and then she got a playful look. She swiftly poked his sides, tickling him hard.

Austin screamed and caught her two hands. They were both soon laughing in a childish manner.

“Mr. Denovan.” Mandy’s voice interrupted their play.

Selene turned around and saw Clint’s cold face by the door.

She said nothing, but Austin greeted him. “Hi, Mr. Denovan.”

Selene was confused, wondering if the two knew each other.

Clint nodded towards Austin and greeted him back. “Hello, Mr. White.”

Selene felt at a loss for words when she saw Clint. But hearing him say Austin’s name, she squinted at Austin and repeated in a confused tone. “Hi, Mr. White?”

Austin rolled his eyes and touched her hair. “Yes, I’m Mr. White. What’s wrong?”

Clint raised his eyebrow slightly at the hair touch but otherwise remained expressionless. Clint remembered the time when he had been on top of Selene, and her hair was messy.

“Mr. Denovan. I didn’t know you’re a customer here.” Austin said.

“Yes.” Though Clint felt like exploding, he controlled himself.

“Are you here to order new suits?” Selene asked after regaining her composure.

But Selene soon realized that he had just made suits a week ago. She knew that he would not need new ones for a few more weeks.

“I came to see you,” Clint answered.

Selene felt a little shocked, and she glanced at Austin. “Austin, you can go now. I’ll call you when I’m free.”

Austin nodded and smiled at Clint. “Goodbye, Mr. Denovan. See you next time.”

Clint nodded but said nothing.

When Austin left, the atmosphere in the store changed.

Mandy sat and pretended to read from a magazine.

Selene asked Clint to sit down.

“You’re in a great mood since coming back. I hope everything is okay with your family.”

“Yes. Everything is okay.”

“Why did you not go to the fashion show in New York with me?”

“No reason. I just didn’t want to.”

“Selene, what’s wrong with you?” Clint stood up and went in front of her. He had thought that things between them were going well. He had regarded it as a good beginning.
